You ought'a know me, know me by now I'm not a stranger to this town You needn't love me, that's not why I'm here I'm just a traveler through the years And when you see me now I'll say hello It comes from my heart and from my soul I've been all around the world And I've come to see It's the love that you give that you shall receive And when you see me now I'll say hello It comes from my heart and from my soul I've been all around the world And I've come to see It's the love that you give that you shall receive the love that you give you shall receive the love that you give you shall receive the love that you give you shall receive

Let me live in the house by the side of the road and be a friend to man Let me open my eyes in the morning to see that I might understand The world keeps turning around It never ends The world keeps turning around and around my friends Let me open my door to the traveler who is weary and dead on their feet Let me bar the door closed from the cold and the rain and offer a warm cup of tea (spot'o tea? Thanks!) The world keeps turning around It never ends The world keeps turning around and around my friends La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Let me live in the house by the side of the road and be a friend to man Let me open my door to the traveler who, who needs a helping hand The world keeps turning around It never ends The world keeps turning around and around again The world keeps turning around It never ends The world keeps turning around and around again

I remember when you were young Just thinking bout' all you'd become The days were long under the sun And had I done all that can Dreams, they rise up like birds and fly Plans you made up some day to try Find some time to look behind your eyes And have you done all that you can Have, have you found The life you dreamed has come around? The love will lift you off the ground And fly you around the sun I remember those days gone bye Sometimes so clear before my eyes Can almost reach out and touch the sky Made me all, all that I am Have, have you found The life you dreamed has come around? The love will lift you off the ground And fly you around the sun fly you (fly you round') the sun fly you around the sun

You know that you can't run From everything and everybody The time is gonna come That you'll have to trust somebody Can't hide behind your walls Gotta' tear them down till' there crumbling round' you The love that's in your heart You can't deny it- you can't hide from love In the sky up above Like the stars in the night There's a love in your heart Run into the rain Will it wash you, wash away- All your foolish games You've played so long now, have you forgotten? Will you feel the same? When you step outside and look around you Will you grow and change? There's no more time to hide away from love! In the sky up above Like the stars in the night There's a love in your heart Can you hear the rain is falling down? Open up your eyes and look around You are alive It's not a dream Look out your window and see I see a little one long ago Tried to run away every night and day If you take my hand and let me guide you You can spread your wings and fly away You can spread your wings and fly away You can spread your wings and fly away Fly away~ You can't hide from love~ Spread your wings and fly away~ You can't hide from love~ Spread your wings and fly away~ You can't hide from love~ Spread your wings and fly away~ You can't hide from love~ Spread your wings and fly away~ You can't hide from love~ Spread your wings and fly away~

You 05:53
You, you say that you see right through Can you tell me what you see? You, you tell me that you just can't say But you'll tell me what to do And when you tell me That you'd love to show me all you know I think I finally understand And I don't want to go With you Now, I finally opened up my eyes To what you're saying And what you mean To Do And when you tell me That you'd love to show me all you know Oh yeah~ I think I finally understand And I don't want to go And when you tell me That you'd love to show me all you know Oh yeah~ I think I finally understand And I don't want to go I don't want to go I don't want to go With you

Standing and looking high over my head There's a bird that's circling round Flying away to the north and the west Disappears as suns going down Looking around I'm alone again Or am I, it's hard to be sure The world turning round to another day My soul keeps asking for more Love in this world Time seems to fly in the strangest of ways As days roll by I've come to find There's a love in my heart and it's waiting there still For something we've all left behind Looking around I'm alone again Or am I, it's hard to be sure The world turning round to another day My soul keeps asking for more Love in this world When will I see you again? Are you minding the time? Spinning around in the end It's the love in this world It's the love in this world It's the love in this world It's the love in this world It's the love in this world Standing and looking high over my head There's a bird slowly circling round Flying away to the north and the west Disappears as suns going down Looking around I'm alone again Or am I, it's hard to be sure The World turning round to another day My soul keeps asking for more Love in this world

Trust 04:14
I don't trust you since you went away You said you loved me and you'd never leave I can't trust you no more today You took our love and you threw it away I can't trust you no more You said that the truth it would set us free How come you do nothing but lie You told me loved me and we'd be forever Now you don't even try - no! I can't trust you I can't love you since you broke my heart I'm crying and trying to get past your lying I can't love you no more You said you'd love me and you'd never leave I can't trust you no more You said that the truth it would set us free How come you do nothing but lie You told me loved me and we'd be forever Now you don't even try - no! I can't love you no more I don't trust you since you went away You said you loved me and you'd never leave I can't trust you no that way You took our love and you threw it away I can't trust you no more You said that the truth it would set us free How come you do nothing but lie You told me loved me and we'd be forever When did forever die? I can't trust you no more

When I wakeup in the morning and I see you Wanna hold you in my arms and just be near you Close our eyes and make a wish to be together Every night and day and share this life forever And if you're cold I'll wrap my arms around you You can count on me you know I'll always love you These are the days in life that we are living right now With no one else I want to share this perfect moment right now Only with you Only with you Only with you In the end when all the pieces come together The golden light of love will shine on us forever Sharing all the moments that we've always dreamed of We'll be together in the light of our love And when you hold me I still get the feeling You can count on me you know can believe it These are the days in life that we are living right now With no one else I want to share this perfect moment right now Only with you Only with you Only with you That same old sun it shines brighter today I hope and pray that you're feeling it too With nothing more than the love in our hearts We can fly away- Are you feeling it too? When I wakeup in the morning and I see you Wanna hold you in my arms and just be near you Close our eyes and make a wish to be together Every night and day and share this life forever And if you're cold I'll wrap my arms around you You can count on me you know I'll always love you These are the days in life that we are living right now With no one else I want to share this perfect moment right now With no one else I want to share this perfect moment right now Right now Right now Only with you Only with you Only with you Only with you Only with you Only with you Only with you Only with you

When you see me coming over the mountain With the fire burning in my eyes You better run, you better take cover Cause' the judgement is a-coming tonight You're spreading all your lies all around you Poison that you put in the well You better run, you better take cover Cause' I'm coming and I'm ringing that bell You looked me in the eyes and you told me Forever we'd be making our plan you better run, you better take cover Cause' I'm gonna find you in the end - yeah You looked me in the eyes and you told me Forever we'd be making our plans you better run, you better take cover You know I'll find you in the end - yeah You better run- Coming to get you-

Dream 37 04:09
Hide away from the world in a dream Fly away across the universe in a dream I've been waiting for yo Almost lost you to the wind I've been waiting To begin again Close my eyes and dream Will I find when I close my eyes that old dream? The one I had as a child long ago Will I remember again Will I walk through that door I've been waiting To begin again Close my eyes and dream

What were our Father's thinking? That this would be the way? To run the world, to keep the peace and keep the threats at bay A finger on the trigger Got to be a better way We built these bombs Designed to do us in We dropped a few- that's all it took Now we'll keep them till' the end A finger on the button Fear will never end The sun it shines too bright today The cool breeze is gone forever away And who among us will rise to turn the hands of time? The sun it shines too bright today The cool breeze is gone forever away And who among us will rise to turn the hands of time? And who among us will rise to turn the hands of time?
12.
I am still dreaming I am still in a dream The story keeps changing The plot rearranging The fabric of reason disappears But when I tell you I'll always love you I will I am still sleeping I am still, still asleep Please don't wake me While I'm still dreaming I've almost made it to the end That's where you'll tell me That you will love me again That's where you'll tell me That you will love me again woc yloh eht esiarP woc yloh eht esiarP Please don't wake me While I'm still dreaming I've almost made it to the end That's where you'll tell me That you will love me again That's where you'll tell me That you will love me again woc yloh eht esiarP woc yloh eht esiarP

Hummingbird 04:29
Do yo remember being here with me Hungry for the world we'd yet to see And as we laid upon the floor And finally opened up the door To see the air was filled with butterflies I often wonder- do you think about The day we finally dared let it out And plumed the depths of the Diamond Mine Untethered from the world of time And saw the air was filled with butterflies Fly Hummingbird Fly back to me Heaven before me now All I can see Hummingbird Fly Hummingbird Fly back to me Heaven before me now All I can see Fly Hummingbird Fly Hummingbird Fly Hummingbird Fly Hummingbird Hummingbird

When you speak the words you hear inside your head They're so meaningless they're better left unsaid There's a darkness in all you begin And the words you speak mean nothing in the end When you're rising up by all you're putting down You may fool them all but you wont see me around There's a darkness in all the things you say And the words you speak bring nothing but pain You tell me your hear is full of love for everyone You tell me that you've seen the light and you've heard the word of love But I can see behind your eyes There's fear... and lies When the time has come to tally up your life Will you finally own your hatred and your lies There's a darkness now that's always been And the circle always comes around again Is there still a hope, a hope for you? You know I just cant say It's not my place to lift you up And help you find the way It's not my place to show you the love That you never could give Or up to me to help you seize, help you seize the day
15.
When you see the light shining through your window And that morning sun is calling you outside your door Don't be afraid to run and shout out loud your love And when the world replies don't be surprised by love Don't be surprised by love When your living down with all those people all around you But you would rather be where there's no one else around Don't be afraid to run and leave them all behind And when the world replies don't be surprised Don't be surprised by love In the garden on the swing The birds fly up and sing If only I could fly There's no place I'd rather be There's peace and harmony so real It gets you high, It gets you high, It gets you high ------------ Through the fields in your eyes To know the sorrow of goodbye Spread across an open land Of bending grass and blowing sand You show me the way Although I don't know why You tell me the way Although I don't know why Touch the wind beyond the sky Feel the rhythm blowing by Spread across an open land Of bending grass and blowing sand You show me the way Although I don't know why You tell me the way Although I don't know why ---------------- And when the world replies don't be surprised And when the world replies don't be surprised And when the world replies don't be surprised Don't be surprised by love
16.
You wonder how much more of this we all can take How do we get to love as we're living through this hate I don't believe you when you tell me it's too late Got to be a way Will there ever come a time when we are free? How can we grow a love if we never plant a seed? I don't believe that it's too late for you and me Got to be a way We're not alone We're not alone We've got to reach out and believe We're not alone There's still a hope for you and me Upon this ground we'll sow the seed We're not alone We're not alone We've got to reach out and believe We're not alone There's still a hope for you and me Upon this ground we'll sow the seed But when you tell me that you're gone I beg you darling to hold on Oh, I need your love Don't listen to the stories tailored just for you You've got to step outside and see a different view We've got to hold on to the world we know is true Got to be a way We're not alone We're not alone We've got to reach out and believe We're not alone There's still a hope for you and me Upon this ground we'll sow the seed We're not alone We're not alone We've got to reach out and believe We're not alone There's still a hope for you and me Upon this ground we'll sow the seed yeah Upon this ground we'll sow the seed yeah Upon this ground we'll sow the seed yeah

You and I 05:54
I remember when I was young Long ago beneath the sun With sticks and sand and wheels in the mud You were there with me We were just kids and God only knows All the things that we did and places we'd go Stars in the night and the sky all a-glow You were there with me Time after time, day after day The world was ours to share Of dreams that we dared to dream There was music- always music in the air Out on the floor spread all around There were Heroes and Villains and Jagger and Dylan and the Merry-Go-Round All of the sounds Look at us now, here today A life of music- we found a way And from that road we never strayed You're still here with me Time after time, day after day The world was ours to share Of dreams that we dared to dream There was music- always music everywhere Time after time, day after day The world was ours to share Of dreams that we dared to dream There was music- always music in the air
18.
Ten thousand years will come and go in the blinking of an eye The love that fills the universe it touches you and I When the Sun goes dark, Andromeda collide In the Universe stars are meant to die Begin the end, begin Clouds of thoughts cascading down and lost beneath the sea The deepest love that's ever been never again to be All the world's word written down never again to read And the sound of laughter lost out on the sea Begin the end, begin Begin the end, begin Already seen enough of you She's tired, ready to be done with you Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough? I've looked outside and through the day and wished that it was night Run so hard and prayed that I- my soul to just take flight And the world we thought was ours indifferent to the plight When the wind blows down so hard upon this sea of light Begin the end, begin Begin the end, begin Begin the end, begin Begin the end, begin Begin the end, begin
