We passed upon the stair
We spoke of worlds and when Although I wasn't there He said I was his friend Which came as a surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone A long long time ago Oh no, not me We never lost control You're face to face With The Man Who Sold The World I laughed and shook his hand And made my way back home I've searched a foreign land For years and years I roamed I gazed a gazeless stare At all the millions here I must have died alone (Alt: I must have died along) A long, long time ago [x2] Who knows? Not me We never lost control You're face to face With the Man who Sold the World |

Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands Nothing on top but a bucket and a mop And an illustrated book about birds You see a lot up there but don’t be scared Who needs action when you got words When you’ve finished with the mop then you can stop And look at what you’ve done The plateau’s clean, no dirt to be seen And the work - it was fun Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau Some said it was in Greenland and some say Mexico Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood Those are all just guesses Wouldn’t help you if they could |

I wanna tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat Comes out of the Virginia swamps Cool and slow with plenty of precision With a back beat narrow and hard to master Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance Others, mean and ruthful of the Western dream I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping This is the land where the Pharaoh died The Negroes in the forest brightly feathered They are saying, "Forget the night. Live with us in forests of azure. Out here on the perimeter there are no stars Out here we is stoned - immaculate." Listen to this, and I'll tell you 'bout the heartache I'll tell you 'bout the heartache and the lose of God I'll tell you 'bout the hopeless night The meager food for souls forgot I'll tell you 'bout the maiden with raw iron soul I'll tell you this No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn I'll tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat Soft drivin', slow and mad, like some new language Now, listen to this, and I'll tell you 'bout the Texas I'll tell you 'bout the Texas Radio I'll tell you 'bout the hopeless night Wandering the Western dream Tell you 'bout the maiden with raw iron soul |

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow, >from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. The hammer of the gods Will drive our ships to new lands, To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming! On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. Ah, ah, We come from the land of the ice and snow, >from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. How soft your fields so green, Can whisper tales of gore, Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords. On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, For peace and trust can win the day Despite of all your losing. |

Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His sad eyes had seen it all Scarred and lonely, tough as nails Open your heart when all else fails Wear the veil and the trojan horse smile Looking back on yesteryear Seems like, maybe, you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And you have fallen down, down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace - such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by To carry you away Target practice with other people’s lives Hit a few right between the eyes But, most of the time, you were wounded by the ricochet You say “play to win, boys, never play to lose Long as your playing, boy, you’re bullet-proof” But think about it - you’re bleeding to death anyway And you have fallen down, down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace - such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by Angel of mercy, take pity on a fool That spent a lifetime wondering What Napoleon would do If he were in your shoes Rich, without pleasure - respected without love Drinking poison from a golden cup While anger, brother of fear, creeps like a knife into your heart Looking back on yesteryear Seems like, maybe, you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And destiny’s through calling And you have fallen down - fallen down Amazing grace - it’s such a lonely place Oh yes it is Fallen down Fallen down Fallen down Fallen down Fallen down Fallen down |

![]() I close my eyes and the flashback starts I’m standing there, on a balcony of summer air I see the lights, see the party, the ball gowns I see you make your way through the crowd You say hello, little did I know… That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet” And I was crying on the staircase Begging you please don’t go… And I said… Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess, It’s a love story, baby, just say yes So I sneak out to the garden to see you We keep quiet, because we’re dead if they knew So close your eyes Escape this town for a little while Oh, Ohhh Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter, [ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/mv8H ] And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet” But you were everything to me I was begging you, please don’t go… And I said Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess It’s a love story, baby, just say yes Romeo save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel This love is difficult, but it’s real Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess It’s a love story, baby, just say yes Oh, Ohhh… I got tired of waiting Wondering if you were ever coming around My faith in you was fading When I met you on the outskirts of town And I said Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone I keep waiting, for you but you never come Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think He kneels to the ground and pulled out a ring and said Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone I love you, and that’s all I really know I talked to your dad-you’ll pick the white dress It’s a love story, baby just say…yes… Oh, Ohhh… Oh, Oh, Ohhh… We were both young when I first saw you. ![]() |

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin' Tired of livin' like a blind man I'm sick of sight without a sense of feelin And this is how you remind me This is how you remind me Of what I really am This is how you remind me Of what I really am It's not like you to say sorry I was waiting on a different story This time I'm mistaken For handing you a heart worth breakin' I've been wrong, I've been down Been to the bottom of every bottle These five words in my head Scream "Are we having fun yet?" Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no It's not like you didn't know that I said I love you and I swear I still do It must have been so bad Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you This is how you remind me Of what I really am This is how you remind me Of what I really am It's not like you to say sorry I was waiting on a different story This time I'm mistaken For handing you a heart worth breakin' I've been wrong, I've been down Been to the bottom of every bottle These five words in my head Scream "Are we having fun yet?" Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no Never made is as a wise man I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing And this is how you remind me This is how you remind me This is how you remind me Of what I really am This is how you remind me Of what I really am It's not like you to say sorry I was waiting on a different story This time I'm mistaken For handing you a heart worth breakin' I've been wrong, I've been down Been to the bottom of every bottle These five words in my head Scream "Are we having fun yet?" Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no |

Circle of hands
Cold spirits plan Searching my land For an enemy Came across Love's sweet cost And in the face of beauty Evil was lost Sky full of eyes Minds full of lies Black from their cold hearts Down to their graves Murdered the dawn Spreading their scorn Cursing the sun Of which love was born We must keep them away Or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow Sacrifice - the future has it's price And today is only Yesterday's tomorrow Tomorrow ... |

And if you feel that you can't go on. And your will's sinkin' low
Just believe and you can't go wrong. In the light you will find the road. You will find the road Oh, did you ever believe that I could leave you, standing out in the cold I know how it feels 'cause I have slipped through to the very depths of my soul. I just wanna show what I'd give you it is from every bend in the road Now listen to me Oh, whoa-whoa, as I was and really would be for you, too, honey As you would for me, oh, I would share your load. Let me share your load. Ooh, let me share, share your load And if you feel that you can't go on In the light you will find the road Though the winds of change may blow around you, but that will always be so When love is pain it can devour you, if you are never alone I would share your load. I would share your load Baby, let me, oh, let me In the light Everybody needs the light. In the light, in the light, in the light Light, light, light, in the light Light, light, light, in the light, ooh, yeah Light, light, light, in the light |

Then as it was, then again it will be
An' though the course may change sometimes Rivers always reach the sea Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good 'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be Oh darlin', oh darlin' I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave Holdin' on, ten years gone Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone |

Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve Waterfalls The Garden of Eden Two fools in love So beautiful and strong The birds in the trees Are smiling upon them From the age of the dinosaurs Cars have run on gasoline Where, where have they gone? Now, it's nothing but flowers There was a factory Now there are mountains and rivers you got it, you got it We caught a rattlesnake Now we got something for dinner we got it, we got it There was a shopping mall Now it's all covered with flowers you've got it, you've got it If this is paradise I wish I had a lawnmower you've got it, you've got it Years ago I was an angry young man I'd pretend That I was a billboard Standing tall By the side of the road I fell in love With a beautiful highway This used to be real estate Now it's only fields and trees Where, where is the town Now, it's nothing but flowers The highways and cars Were sacrificed for agriculture I thought that we'd start over But I guess I was wrong Once there were parking lots Now it's a peaceful oasis you got it, you got it This was a Pizza Hut Now it's all covered with daisies you got it, you got it I miss the honky tonks, Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens you got it, you got it And as things fell apart Nobody paid much attention you got it, you got it I dream of cherry pies, Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies you got it, you got it We used to microwave Now we just eat nuts and berries you got it, you got it This was a discount store, Now it's turned into a cornfield you got it, you got it Don't leave me stranded here I can't get used to this lifestyle |

Nous sommes du soleil - we love when we play
Nous sommes du soleil - we love when we play Open doors we find our way We look, we see, we smile Surely daybreaks cross our path And stay maybe a while Let them run, let them chase Let them hide between Constant doors will open eyes As life seems like Life seems like a Fight, fight, fight Maybe I'll just sing awhile And then give you a call Maybe I'll just say hello And say maybe that's all Hurry home as love is true Will help us through the night Till we're coming home again Our life seems like Life seems like a Fight, fight, fight Catch as we look and use the passions that flow As we try we continue We receive all we venture to give Maybe we'll just stand awhile And surely we can call Dreams are said to blossom courage Constant to the soul Change we must as surely time does, Changes call the course. Held inside we enter daybreaks Asking for, asking for The source Sent as we sing our music's total retain As we try and consider We receive all we venture to give All we say is our soul constant sight listener We won't render our song clearer Till we sail Then I will be there And I will be there As clearer companions shall call to be near you They move around tell me that Move around surely sing As they don't seem to matter at all At all, at all... Hold me my love, hold me today, call me round Travel we say, wander we chchoose love tune Lay upon me, hold me around lasting hours We love when we play We hear a sound and alter our returning We drift the shadows and course our way on home Flying home Going home Look me my love sentences move dancing away We join we receive As our song memories long hope in a way Nous sommes du soleil Hold, me around, lasting hours We love when we play Nous sommes du soleil Nous sommes du soleil Nous sommes du soleil |

The sun don't shine
The moon don't move the tides, to wash me clean Sun don't shine The moon don't move the tides, to wash me clean Why so unforgiving and why so cold Been a long time crossing Bridge of Sighs Cold wind blows The Gods look down in anger, on this poor child Cold wind blows And Gods look down in anger, on this poor child Why so unforgiving and why so cold Been a long time crossing Bridge of Sighs |

Hey where did we go
Days when the rains came Down in a hollow Playin' a new game Laughin' and a runnin' Skippin' and a jumpin' In the misty mornin' fog Ah with our hearts a thumpin' Was you my brown eyed girl You my brown eyed girl Now what ever happened Tuesday is oh so slow Goin' down the old mine with a Transistor radio Standin' in a sunlit lane Hidin' 'hind a rainbow's wall Slippin' and a slidin' yeah All along the waterfall It was you my brown eyed girl You my brown eyed girl Do you remember when We used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da So hard to find my way Now that I'm on my own Thought about it just the other day My, where'd the times all gone Can't remember back then Lord Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout Makin' love in the green grass Uh behind the stadium With you my brown eyed girl You my brown eyed girl Do you remember when We used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Yeah Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Oh oh oh oh Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da Oh oh oh oh Sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da |

I'll be a man of my word Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard I wanna sleep with you forever And I wanna die in your arms In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us I wanna honor your mother I wanna learn from your pa I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw I wanna stand out in a crowd for you A man among men I wanna make your world better than it's ever been And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us We'll follow the rainbow Wherever the four winds blow And there'll be a new day Comin' your way I'm gonna be here for you from now on This you know somehow You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now And I'm gonna make you a promise If there's life after this I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm, wet kiss And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll win your trust making memories of us. |

It ticks just like a Timex
It never lets up on you Who said life was easy The job is never through It'll run us 'til we're ragged It'll harden our hearts And love could use a day of rest Before we both start falling apart Pray that it's raining on Sunday Stormin' like crazy We'll hide under the covers all afternoon Baby whatever comes Monday Can take care of itself 'Cause we got better things that we could do When it's raining on Sunday Your love is like religion A cross in Mexico And your kiss is like the innocence Of a prayer nailed to a door Oh surrender in much sweeter When we both let it go Let the water wash our bodies clean And love wash our souls Pray that it's raining on Sunday Stormin' like crazy We'll hide under the covers all afternoon Baby whatever comes Monday Can take care of itself 'Cause we got better things that we could do When it's raining on Sunday Pray that it's raining on Sunday Stormin' like crazy We'll hide under the covers all afternoon Baby whatever comes Monday Can take care of itself 'Cause we got better things that we could do When it's raining on Sunday When it's raining on Sunday When it's raining on Sunday Let it rain. |
