K-K-K-Katy
K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy
you're the only
g-g-g-girl that I adore
and when the
m-m-m-moon
shines...
over the cow shed
I'll be waiting by
the k-k-k-kitchen
door...
Still So Many Places
there's still so many places
that I have never been
there's still so many faces
that I have never seen
there's still so many people
telling so many lies
there's still so much greed and violence
it's enough to bring tears to your eyes
I told my girl that I loved her
but she just cast me away
I told that girl I couldn't live on without her
she said then you'll die today
I say some day
I will find her
the woman for me
in all ways
I say some day I will find her
and she'll turn my night into day
but sometimes I'm
not so sure
that everything will work out right
sometimes I tend
to doubt it
it seems that life's
just one more battle
to fight
there's still so many places
that I have never seen
there's still so many faces
that I have never been
there's still so many people
telling so many lies
there's still so much
greed and violence
that it's enough
to bring tears to your eyes
Swiftly
swiftly flying freely
from forever to today
toss problems to the wind like feathers
watch them float, eh?
watch them float away
sun shining everywhere
gold upon the land
the wind is whispering
and I under
and I understand
life living everywhere
is meant to understand
not a wealth of facts
but feelings
Who Listens For You?
who listens for you when you sleep
can you imagine, the secrets that they keep
who listens for you, when the night is all around
who keeps your body on the ground
life is a simile
that's like a metaphor
the map is not the terriroty
a window's not a door
you're looking out at something
and you don't know what it is
and you'll never ever reach it
so don't be so negative
who listens for you when you sleep
can you imagine, the secrets that they keep
who listens for you, when the night is all around
who keeps your body on the ground
life is a simile
that's like a metaphor
the map is not the territory
a window's not a door
whatever's really happening
no one knows exactly what it is
but you're the one who makes it up
so don't be so negative
who listens for you when you sleep
can you imagine, the secrets that they keep
who listens for you, when the night is all around
who keeps your body on the ground
It's Gonna Be All Right
there's something in my veins that causes pain
there something in my heart that's very dark
there's something in my eyes that makes me cry
but it's gonna be alright
it's gonna be all right
there's something in my arms that causes harm
there's something in my head that feels almost dead
there's something in the sky that makes me wonder why
but it's gonna be alright
it's gonna be all right
there's something in my brain that causes pain
there's something in my art, that's very dark
there's something in my soul that feels very old
but it's gonna be alright
it's gonna be all right
There's nothing in the dark to be afraid of
it's really nothing that I'm made of
the wonder of it all is that I have so far to fall
so before I hit the ground, I'm gonna make it
a sweet and pleasing sound, my soul is naked
I'm going to be alright
I'm going to see the sun rise [one more time]
it's gonna be alright
it's gonna be all right
it's gonna be alright,
it's gonna be all right...
I'm Alright
I'm alright
it's gonna be just fine
another lonely day
turns into another lonely night
but I'm alright
I'm gonna be just fine
watching another lonely day
turn into another lonely life
But I don't mind
I've got plenty of time
to find the right place for everything
to set everything right
[CHORUS]
And if you ever find yourself thinking
you've run out of time
Then you've got to remind yourself
that it's all in your mind
it's all in your mind
But I don't mind
I've got plenty of time
to find the right way thru everything
it's not too late 'till you die
I'm alright
I'm gonna make it through the night
I'm going to make it through another day
and it's gonna be all right
And I don't mind
all I have to do is try
because it's all in my mind
because it's not too late 'till I die
[CHORUS]
And if you ever find yourself thinking
you've run out of time
Then you've got to remind yourself
that it's all in your mind
it's all in your mind
I'm alright
I'm gonna be just fine
watching another lovely day
turn into another lovely night
Cold Wind Blue
I'm so tired
but it's nothing
of trying
but it's the same thing
outside
is where the cold wind blew
step back jack 'cause it's a frontal attack
a little ping pong drip drop stab in the back
you better fly right sit straight get a job
don't be late and if you're not zen
you'll do it again
outside
looking inside
so tired
nowhere to run and hide
so strange
but it's the same thing too
[CHORUS]
[SOLO]
I'm so tired
but it's nothing
of trying
but it's the same thing
outside
is where the cold wind blew
[CHORUS]
I try
but is it working
so sly
but it's the same thing
I cry
but I'll be all right too
[CHORUS]
there is a sigh
a sound of longing
I wanna fly
the day is dawning
when you and I
could feel the cold wind blue
[CHORUS]
Life Is As
life is as you make of it
so reap what you can take from it
and when your life is ending
well, know, that you were alone
all alone
who knows the chains
that bind them
in thier hearts
and in their souls
who feels their weight upon them
as they tighten their deadly hold
it's easier by far to merely suffer
and exist
then it is to leave an ordered life
and strike off in the mist
but if you never take the step
towards the vast unknown
then you'll never know
what could have been
'nor truly know your
know your
know your soul
know your soul
know your soul
life is as you make of it
so reap what you can take from it
and when your life is ending
well know that you were not
alone
you're
not alone
you're not alone
Every Song
how can every song
on the radio
be about you
how can every bird
in the sky
sing your name?
how can I
be content
without you?
because I met you
and the world
is not the same
[CHORUS]
and I
want just to hold you
to
love and enfold you
I
long to caress you
to
kiss and undress you
only you
only you
make me
feel like you do
only you
only you
make me
feel like you do
how can every song
on the radio
be about you
how can every cloud
in the sky
look like your face
how can I
be content
without you?
because I met you
and the world
is not the same
[CHORUS]
how can
every song on the radio
be about you
how can every star
in the sky
spell your name
how can I
be content
without you?
because I met you
and the world
is not the same
because I met you
and the world
is not the same
because I met you
the world
is not the same
it's just not the same
[CHORUS]
Spring Is Now
spring is here and everything
is turning green
the sky goes on forever
and the leaves are on the trees
but after summers endless days
you know will come the fall
the leaves come down while spinning round
it happens to us all
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
spring is here and everything
is feeling warm
the rosy sky invites
but also warns about the storm
the day begins and everything
is bathed in gold
that's nature's first green
and her hardest hue to hold
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
spring begins and everything
my pockets full of posy
I wish I knew how it all works
but that's because I'm nosy
so I offer up this little world
I hope you enjoy my toy
one more thing, remember
"Stay gold, Pony Boy..."
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
ashes, ashes, all fall down
ashes, ashes, 'round and 'round
spring is here and everything
is turning green
everything begins and ends
I don't know what that means
the only thing we every really know
is now
it always is, it always was
though I can't tell you how
but I think it's gonna be ok
so turn the music up and we can sing away
I think it's gonna all work out just fine, fine...
I think it's gonna be ok
[love love love love, love love love love, love is all you need]
so turn the music up and we can sing away
[love love love love, love love love will be your guarantee]
I think it's gonna all work out just fine, fine...
row row row row row your boat
[love love love love, love love love love, love is all you need]
I say, gently down the stream
merrily merrily merrily merrily
[love love love love, love love love will be your guarantee]
life is but a dream
row row row row row your boat
[love love love love, love love love love, love is all you need]
I say, gently down the stream
merrily merrily merrily merrily
[love love love love, love love love will be your guarantee]
life is but a dream
Last Time
do you remember?
the first time you and I laid
eyes on each other
then we said goodbye
I knew you would be my friend
and I didn't wonder why
I knew I would see you again
and I didn't have to cry
...but the last time
the last time
the last time...
I don't want to say goodbye
'cause I don't want to cry
so please don't go to sleep tonight
you make me feel alive
[REPEAT]
do your remember?
the first time you said okay
made me feel all warm inside
but then you went away
and I started to realize
that I wanted you to stay
so I wrote you a love song
what else could I say?
...but the last time
the last time
the last time...
I don't want to say goodbye
'cause I don't want to cry
so please don't go to sleep tonight
you make me feel alive
[REPEAT]
do you remember?
the last time we said goodbye
I wish we'd never said those words
those words are such a lie
with you there are no goodbyes
there are no goodbyes
if we never say those words
then there can't be a last time
...there are no
last times, there are no
good byes, there are no
last times, there are no
good byes...
so I'm not gonna say goodbye
and I'm not gonna cry
if we just stay awake tonight
then you'll still be alive
so I'm not gonna say goodbye
and I'm not gonna cry
if we just stay away tonight
then you'll still be alive
if we just stay awake tonite
then you'll still be alive
if we just stay awake tonite
there won't be a last time
if we just stay awake tonight
there won't be a last
Fairy Tale
