Had A Dream
Had a dream I was born To be naked in the eye of the storm And now it's standing right in front of me What's it going to do to me, who knows, Had a dream it was time To be taken to the front of the line Well that is not a place you wanna be sleeping with the enemy, you know, I don't care what the future brings Give a damn about anything I'd be fine if they'd only leave me alone But it's time -gotta take a stance 'Cause I won't get a second chance And I know I have to make it alone Had a dream it was war And they couldn't tell me what it was for But it was something they could be lie about Something we could die about, you know Anytime, anyplace When you look that man in the face Well it is not a face you wanna see Sleeping with the enemy, you know Mary, can you hear me Can you tell me what it's all supposed to mean Holding out a photograph of all that I have seen I wish I could hold you I wish I could hold you Had a dream it was time To be a witness of the scene of the crime Well, that is something you can analyse Something you can criticise, who knows So we wait, hesitate And we're making such a mistake Oh whatever can the matter be Sleeping with the enemy, you know I don't care what the future brings Give a damn about anything I'd be fine if they'd only leave me alone But it's time -gotta take a stance 'Cause I won't get a second chance And I know I have to make it alone
In Jeopardy
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I feel I'm about to cry In jeopardy, in jeopardy, oh tell me the reason why In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I'm watching the feeling grow In jeopardy, in jeopardy, oh tell me I want to know In jeopardy, in jeopardy, the writing is on the wall In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I can't seem to sleep at all In jeopardy, in jeopardy, we utter a lonely cry In jeopardy, in jeopardy, who cares if we live or die Who's in your mind Who's in your conscience Part of the crime Part of the nonsense Do what we can Pray for tomorrow Living your lives Watching, waiting, feeling as much as we can In jeopardy, in jeopardy, so where is the golden age In jeopardy, in jeopardy, we're ready to turn the page In jeopardy, in jeopardy, it's getting so out of hand In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I wish I could understand Who's in your mind Who's in your conscience Part of the crime Part of the nonsense Do what we can Pray for tomorrow Living your lives Watching, waiting, feeling as much as we can Who's in your mind Who's in your conscience Part of the crime Part of the nonsense Do what we can Sing for tomorrow Living your lives Watching, waiting, working, playing, singing, dancing, running as fast as we can
Lovers In The Wind
Time is always on the run We've only just begun, Lovers in the wind Life is all we have to share You know we must take care Lovers in the wind There was a time when it was hard to know Reaching out, reaching out for somewhere to go There was a light born on the darkest day But no one wants to know And no one wants to cry Love is all I have to give It's all I need to live Lovers in the wind There was a time when it was hard to know Reaching out, reaching out for somewhere to go There was a light born on the darkest day But no one wants to know And no one wants to cry Time is always on the run We've only just begun, Lovers in the wind
Hooked On A Problem
I'm hooked on a problem It won't go away So many opinions I don't know what to say Can somebody help me What they trying to do Life used to be simple Life used to be fun Now it's all catchin' up on me Tell me what I have I done Can somebody help me What they trying to do Hey don't you ever get lonely Hey don't you wish it was easy Facing the world on your own I'm hooked on a problem It won't let me go The way people look at me Feels like twenty below Can somebody help me What they trying to do Hey don't you ever get lonely Hey don't you wish it was easy Facing the world on your own If you know the answer What I'm tryin' to say I need a solution Cause I'm wasting away Can somebody help me What they trying to do Won't somebody help me What they trying to do Can somebody help me What they trying to do
Give Me Love, Give Me Life
It's feeling like it's time to ring the changes It's feeling like it's time to be reborn Cause here we go again Proclaiming it's the end And reaching out for something To bring it back again We're living on good fortune We're cheating all our friends So tell me, oh tell me Now where's it going to end I hope it's not too late to see the danger I'd really like to wake and see the dawn Cause here we go again We're trying to pretend We're blaming one another For what is ours to mend We're fighting for the future We're ringing out the post It feels good, it feels good But is it going to last? Give me love, Give me love, give me joy, give me pain Give me light, give me starting again Give me hope, Give me hope, give me sun, give me rain Get me up, get me dancing again Give me life, Give me life, give me high, give me low Give me truth, give me something to know Give me time, Give me time, give me room, give me rope Give me sign, give me reason to hope Cause everything is a turn up, turnaround And everything is just upside, upside-down Well, everything is not like you'd like it to be Everything is a two-bit, two-bit down And everybody 's just out to drag you down Well nothing is as you'd like it, like it to be Well everything is a turn up, turnaround And everything is just upside, upside-down Well, nothing is as you'd like it, like it to be Everything is a two-bit, two-bit down And everybody 's just out to drag you down Well nothing is as you'd like it, like it to be I may not love you, but I can't stop thinking 'bout you Give me love ... reason to hope I see just what I want to see Just what I want to be I can be anytime, anyplace, anywhere I go just where I want to go Just when I want to know I can go anytime, anyplace, anywhere Things just ain't what they used to be Ain't what they ought to be Ain't what they 've got to be, gonna be probably Things just ain't gonna get to me Ain't gonna bother me Ain't gonna worry me , hurry me, let'em be Give me love, Give me love, give me joy, give me pain Give me light, give me starting again Give me hope, Give me hope, give me sun, give me rain Get me up, get me dancing again Give me life, Give me life, give me high, give me low Give me truth, give me something to know Give me time, Give me time, give me room, give me rope Give me sign, give me reason to hope GIVE ME LIFE
I'm Not Afraid
Oh, what a way to go We're goin'down slow We're movin'to the rhythm We're letting it flow We're steppin'out of time It's freaking your mind We're livin'in the body And we're doin'just fine Tell me, tell me that you love me Tell me, where's ya milk and honey You know, we're doin'alright Well, round and round we go We're goin'down slow We're shakin'to the rhythm We're letting it flow We're steppin'out of time It imprisons your mind We're livin'in the body And we're doin'just fine Tell me, tell me that you love me Tell me, where's ya milk and honey Cause we're doin'alright Tell me, tell me that you love me Tell me, where's ya milk and honey You know, we're doin'alright I'm not afraid of nothing I'm not afraid to cry I'm not afraid to live I'm not afraid to love I'm not afraid to die I'm not afraid of laughter I'm not afraid of tears I'm not afraid to look I'm not afraid to learn I'm not afraid to hear I'm not afraid of darkness I'm not afraid of night I'm not afraid to win I'm not afraid to lose I'm not afraid fight I'm not afraid of anger I'm not afraid of war I'm not afraid to live I'm not afraid to die I'm not afraid at all 'Cause it's a time for singing And it's a time to dance And it's a time to run And it's a time to jump And it's a time to chance It's a time for giving And it's a time to care And it's a time to choose And it's a time to do And it's a time to dare
Only Because Of You
And so we sail towards the dawn Joining those who gently mourn for you It's only because of you Friends may come and friends may go The only friend I need to know is you It's only because of you Mighty castles, lonely kings Hear the ragged children sing it's you It's only because of you He who smiles at lofty schemes Stems the tide of broken dreams is you It's only because of you It's only because of you And when the storms have died away Only truth will live to say it's you It's only because of you And when the darkness flies away Only love will shine to say it's true It's only because of you It's only because of you
