Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
Cause you know darlin’ you are the one
You’re the one I really want to see
You didn’t want to be no busy man
And you never knew how to make no plans
Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
You look like a man climbin’ up the side of a mountain
You’re just waitin’ for a chance to rest a while
Days go by faster than you can count ‘em
And it’s so cold up there,
And I’m so far away from your smile
Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
Cause you know darlin’ you are the one
You’re the one I really want to see
And if I coulda got it straight inside
I seem to be a little too preoccupied
Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
I dreamed I saw you standin’ by your doorway
Your arms reached out and somehow I couldn’t get close to you
I tried to move faster but I wasn’t movin’ your way
But that was just a dream
It don’t really have to come true
Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
Oh, baby, if I’m late
Say you’re gonna wait for me
If I’m late, say you’re gonna wait
If I’m late, say you’re gonna wait for me

If I ever feel the light again shinin' down on me
I don't have to tell you, how welcome it will be
I felt the light before, but I let it slip away
But I still keep on believin' that it'll come back some day
Chorus:
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the street light, on some ol’ street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
Some times, I try to tell myself, the light was never real
Just a fantasy that used to be, the way I used to feel
But you and I know better, even though it's been so long
If you recall your recollections well, you'll never tell me I’m wrong
Chorus:
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the street light, on some ol’ street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
If I ever feel the light again y’know things will have to change
Names and faces, homes and places, will have to be rearranged You can help it come about, if you’re ever so inclined
Ain’t no rhyme or reason why, anyone can’t change their mind
Chorus:
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the street light, on some ol’ street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean

Old friends waving from a passenger train
Oh boy, familiar to me in impossible ways
A new day, a picture in my hand of who I used to be
Chorus:
Living in a world of archives
It’s not real
Memories ruling our lives
If I go to sleep, please wake me soon Waiting for the bird of empathy
Diving through, out of an old mythology
Stay calm
I’m gonna write a happy ending
Oh boy, what’s it gonna take to change your mind Breathe deep, you’ll own yours and I’ll own mine
Living in a world of archives
It’s not real
Memories ruling our lives
If I go to sleep, please wake me soon Waiting for the bird of empathy Rising through
Deep within your smile I see all I want to see
Bridge:
I don’t wanna be stuck here
I don’t wanna live a shadow of a life
So when I’m scared, please bring me down To earth and ground
Living in a world of archives
It’s not real
Memories ruling our lives
If I go to sleep, please wake me soon Waiting for the bird of empathy
And I need you
Time to write our own mythology
A better view, free to be who we were born to be
Free to say goodbye to all of these Pictures of a story told between Old friends
Waving from a passenger train

Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind Your the key to my peace of mind
'Cause you make me feel, You make me feel,
You make me feel like
A natural woman
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
‘Till your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful, of what I'm living for If I make you happy I don't need to do more
'Cause you make me feel, You make me feel,
You make me feel like
A natural woman
Oh, baby, what you done to me (what you done to me) You make me feel so good inside (so good inside) And I just want to be (want to be)
Close to you, you make me feel so alive
'Cause you make me feel, You make me feel,
You make me feel like A natural woman

vs. 1
big balloons soaring high all floating down the lane what to do? I lost you in your main street parade the streamers stream
the people scream and the children smile and wave its not complicated
Chorus:
I donʼt need a big production all I want is your sweet loving
vs. 2
another night of fireworks exploding in your sky
slight of hand, Iʼm looking up instead of in your eyes its not complicated
Chorus:
cause I donʼt need a big production
all I want is your sweet loving
canʼt stop the crowd pushing and shoving all I want is your sweet loving
Bridge
we learn to forgive when we make mistakes sometimes we give, sometimes we take
but every morning when I wake I see...
big balloons soaring high all floating down the lane what to do? I lost you in your main street parade you make it complicated
Chorus:
cause I donʼt need a big production
all I want is your sweet loving
canʼt stop the crowd pushing and shoving all I want is your sweet loving
what to do?
I lost you in your main street parade.

On the fifth of July
There were broken cartons everywhere Out on the beaches
Something was stirring in the air
Well I can still remember
All the anthems we did sing
On the fifth of July
Well it all seems like a dream to me now Everybody was staring up to the sky
Walking through the ruins Confetti and cherry bomb pies Maybe we lost our innocence Maybe the smoke got in our eyes
And I wonder where have you gone? On this fifth of July
You want to know
Am I coming home?
Can I forget my loveless pride?
I had my fireworks
With you a spark still there inside
And I wonder where have you gone? Under flares and bright torches
I keep holding on
I fell asleep beneath the auburn sky And dreamt I crossed the Delaware But when I reached the other side
I lost what I thought was standing there
On the fifth of July
It should’ve been a day of independence
Now I wonder where you’ve gone On the fifth of July
On the fifth of July

Though you've played at love and lost
And sorrow's turned your heart to frost
I will melt your heart again.
Remember the feeling as a child
When you woke up and morning smiled
It's time you felt like you did then.
There's just no percentage in remembering the past It's time you learned to live again at last.
Come with me, leave yesterday behind And take a giant step outside your mind.
You stare at me in disbelief
You say for you there's no relieve
But I swear I'll prove you wrong.
Don't stay in your lonely room
Just staring back in silent gloom.
That's not where you belong
Come with me I'll take you where the taste of life is green And everyday holds wonders to be seen.
Come with me, leave yesterday behind And take a giant step outside your mind.
(Louise Goffin, Steve Dean)

Go on, make a mistake
Come on, letʼs jump in the lake
Whatʼs your favorite song?
Watching the sky turn blue
You always know where to find me
I used to do nothing of the kind, see Iʼm just Sitting here on this fence
Watching the sky turn blue
Doncha think its about time, about time, about time the sun shined down on you?
Give the take, Iʼll take the give In the middle of my coffee break Youʼll find me on the ferris wheel Watching the sky turn blue
Doncha think its about time, about time, about time the sun shined down on you?
Sunshine down, Sunshine down on you
Doncha think its about time, about time, about time Doncha think its about time, about time, about time Doncha think It’s about time, about time, about time
The sun shined down on you?
Watching The Sky Turn Blue Watching The Sky Turn Blue
Take the give, Iʼll give the take
Give the take, Iʼll take the give
Doncha think its about time, about time, about time The sun shined down on you?
Watching The Sky Turn Blue

I watched the sun come up, the night draw dark, over all my trials Slept in the front seat, and the back seat
I tied a ribbon of miles...felt like I’d been driving for three hundred days No matter how far I’d go, I couldn’t get away
Chorus:
I broke down, yes I did
on Hope Street, I broke down, yes I did
I broke down right outside the devil’s door
My daddy used to tell me, when I was a little girl
Don’t lose faith in people, don’t give up on this crazy world
I was gonna do it, I was
I was gonna throw my life away
I rang the bell, banged on the door, but he wasn’t in that day
Chorus:
I broke down, yes I did
On Hope Street, I broke down, yes I did, yes I did I broke down right outside the devil’s door
Bridge:
I wanted in, I knew this for sure
I saw his arm around another...I said “He don’t want me anymore”
Chorus:
I broke down, yes I did
On Hope Street, I broke down, yes I did, yes I did I broke down right outside the devil’s door
The devil’s door

Is that how it went down? Is that what you heard ? Is that what you took?
Is that what that means? Is that what you saw? is that how it looked?
Who are you listening to?
What are they saying to you?
CHORUS
Some of them are in my head
Live where angels fear to tread Some of them will fool ya
some of them will fool ya
Some I just met yesterday
Some don’t know the words they
say When they tell you
Its never good enough
Some of them will fool ya
And know nothing about love
vs. 2
If you ever try to walk a straight
line all of the time, even when you’re
lost and when you speak, you speak slow watch where you, go listen real close what are they saying to you?
CHORUS
Some of them are in your head Even sleeping in your bed
Some of them will fool ya
some of them will fool ya
Some you just met yesterday
Some don’t know the words they say When they tell you
Its never good enough
Some of them will fool ya
And know nothing about love
Bridge:
Send ‘em back where they belong
And when they sing, you don’t sing along its only true if you believe them So don’t believe them
CHORUS
Some of them are in my head
Even sleeping in my bed
Some of them will fool ya
Some of them will fool ya
Some of them will fool ya
And know nothing about love
