Little River Band - Ride Into The Sun

Looking for another place

Somewhere else to be

Looking for another chance

To ride into the sun

Ride into the sun

Ride into the sun

Ride into the sun

Ride into the sun

Where everything seems so pretty

When you're lonely and tired of the city

Remember it's a flower made out of clay

To the city

Where everything seems so ugly

When your sitting at home in self pitty

Remember you're just one more person

Who's living there

It's hard to live in the city

It's hard to live in the city

It's hard to live in the city

Little River Band - Soo Many Paths

The atmosphere is electric and the minds are on the move,

they all know where they're going but no one is too sure,

I've heard a lot of talking, I've nearly drowned in their words,

and my heart is full of answers just as the sky is full of birds.

There are so many paths up the mountain,

nobody knows all the ways,

there are so many paths up the mountain,

and the view from the top is still the same.

If you should stumble and fall down,

people don't know what to do,

pretend that they didn't notice,

they'll sidestep and walk around you,

don't let it be your worry, no,

no don't let it get you concerned,

you've got to move on in your own direction,

forget what you ever learned.

There are so many paths up the mountain,

nobody knows all the ways,

there are so many paths up the mountain,

and the view from the top is still the same.

Angry voices from the shadows, in the valley,

the sun don't shine,

make your mind up which way you're going,

there are ooh so many paths.

There are so many paths up the mountain,

nobody knows all the ways,

there are so many paths up the mountain,

and the view from the top is still the same.

Mmm yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ...

is still the same, the view from the top is still the same,

where ever you look, it's still the same, still the same, still the same ...

Nirvana - Dumb

I'm not like them but I can pretend
The sun is gone and I have a light
The day is done and I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Maybe just happy
I think I'm just happy
I think I'm just happy
I think I'm just happy

My heart is broke and I have some glue
Help me inhale and mend it with you
We'll float around, hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down

Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover

Skin the sun, fall asleep
Wish away, soul is cheap
Lesson learned, wish me luck
Soothe the burn, wake me up

I'm not like them but I can pretend
The sun is gone and I have a light
The day is done and I'm havin' fun
I think I'm dumb

Maybe just happy
I think I'm just happy
I think I'm just happy
I think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb

Simon And Garfunkel - Sparrow

Who will love a little sparrow?
Who's travelled far and cries for rest?
"Not I," said the oak tree
"I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest,
And my blanket of leaves won't warm her cold breast."

Who will love a little sparrow?
And who will speak a kindly word?
"Not I," said the swan
"The entire idea is utterly absurd,
I'd be laughed at and scorned if the other swans heard."

And who will take pity in his heart?
And who will feed a starving sparrow?
"Not I," said the golden wheat
"I would if I could but I cannot I know,
I need all my grain to prosper and grow."

Who will love a little sparrow?
Will no-one write her eulogy?
"I will," said the earth
"For all I've created returns unto me,
From dust were ye made and dust ye shall be."

John Mayer - Who Says I Can't Get Stoned

Who says I can’t get stoned?

Turn off the lights and the telephone

Me and my house alone

Who says I can’t get stoned?

Who says I can’t be free?

From all of the things that I used to be

Re-write my history

Who says I can’t be free?

It’s been a long night in New York City

It’s been a long night in Baton Rouge

I don’t remember you looking any better

But then again I don’t remember you

Who says I can’t get stoned?

Call up a girl that I used to know

Fake love for an hour or so

Who says I can’t get stoned?

Who says I can’t take time?

Meet all the girls on the county line

Then wait on fate to send a sign

Who says I can’t take time?

It’s been a long night in New York City

It’s been a long night in Austin too

I don’t remember you looking any better

But then again I don’t remember you

Who says I can’t get stoned?

Plan a trip to Japan alone

Doesn’t matter if I even go

Who says I can’t get stoned?

It’s been a long night in New York City

It’s been a long time since 20 too

I don’t remember you looking any better

But then again I don’t remember you

Little River Band - Red-headed Wildflower

It's a shame, such a shame,

a red-headed wildflower in the wrong garden.

The man on the street didn't wanna be mean,

her love was just the wrong kind,

she helped him to the top,

but the lovin' had to stop,

he was years away when she died.

It's a shame, such a shame,

noone was able to ease the pain,

a red-headed wildflower in the wrong garden,

red-headed wildflower, (the red-headed wilflower).

The man in the band extended a hand,

he led a shadowy life,

she made it easy at the top

but the lovin' had to stop,

he was years away when she died.

It's a shame, such a shame,

no one was able to ease the pain,

it's a shame, it's such a shame,

no-one was able to to stop the rain ...

On the day she died,

there were some who cried,

so young, such a shame,

noone to blame, no, no ...

The man on the screen loved his own kind,

when her love was blind,

and the singer had a wife, trouble a strife,

both were years away when she died.

It's a shame, such a shame,

noone was able to ease the pain,

a red-headed wildflower in the wrong garden,

(a red-headed wildflower, growing in the wrong garden, yeah)

Bread - Make it with you

Hey have you ever tried,

Really reaching out for the other side?

I maybe climbing on rainbows

But, baby here goes.

Dreams there for those who sleep,

Life is for us to keep,

And if you're wond'ring

What this song is leading to

I want to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.

No, you don't know me well,

'N' ev'ry little thing only time will tell,

But you believe the things that I do.

And we'll see it through.

Life can be short or long,

Love can be right or wrong,

And if I chose the one

I'd like to help me through,

I'd like to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.

Baby you know that

Dreams they're for those who sleep,

Life is for us to keep

And if I chose the one

I'd like to help me through,

I'd like to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.

Bob Dylan - Not Dark Yet

Shadows are fallin' and I've been here all day
It's too hot to sleep and time is runnin' away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
There's not even room enough to be anywhere
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.

Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
She put down in writin' what was in her mind
I just don't see why I should even care
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.

Well, I've been to London and I been to gay Paris
I've followed the river and I got to the sea
I've been down on the bottom of the world full of lies
I ain't lookin' for nothin' in anyone's eyes
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.

I was born here and I'll die here against my will
I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.

Eagles - Please Come Home For Christmas

Bells will be ringing this sad sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again

Choirs will be singing Silent Night
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Years night

Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the ones you love

So won't you tell me you'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

Oh there'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, Christmas once again

The Beatles - Nowhere Man

He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command


He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?

Nowhere Man, don't worry
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command

He's a real Nowhere Man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Billy Joel - Don't Ask Me Why

All the waiters in you grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calendar's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

You can say the human heart is only make believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
of the accidents you leave
As sure as I'm a victim of desire

All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why

Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, "parlez vous francais"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
