Happy Time
Oh, it's a happy time inside my mind
When melody has found a rhyme
And says to me I'm coming home to stay
Oh, coming home to stay
Lord, I'm coming home to stay
Home to stay
Oh, Lord, it's just the same old story
Something 'bout love for glory
Nickel and a diamond is in fame
Oh, it's such a shame
Wow, the way they use your name
Whew, such a shame
Well, it's in my mind to sing a song
Hoping that you come along my way
Before I have to move along
Now, move along
Wow, but I'll be back again
Whew, back again
Ah, it's a happy time inside my mind
When melody has find a rhyme
And says to me I'm coming home to stay
Wow, coming home to stay
Lord, I'm coming home to stay
Home to stay
Oh, sleep late now, mama
Let the morning sun warm your face
While I'm awake
While I'm awake

No Reason At All
Silver band rise
Perceive the child of joy
Afraid of hopes
That dance in your eyes
Silver band of lies
feel the child at times
That lead us on
They dance in the wild
They are here to remind you
All is not what it seems
They would simply implore you
To sing the song
Ere the songs go in life
Fear, oh, change
For no reason at all
Mostly for no good reason at all
Silver band of lies
Favoured long of joy
Afraid of hopes
That dance in their eyes
Favour love of minds
See the child inside of us all
They dance in the shadows
That pass you by
They will lead to implore you
Life is not what it seems
They just simply implore you
To sing the song
Ere the songs go in life
Fear, oh ,change
For no reason at all
Sometimes for no good reason at all
For no reason at all
Sometimes for no good reason at all
Girl,
I love to feel you under my skin
Girl,
I love the way you put my head in spin

Mourmer Rose
The roses in our harbor
Delight us with their show
They have such lovely flowers
Repaying all our labour
After the summer showers
Happier those with shelter now
They have such lovely flowers
When winter winds are freezing
As through the woods they blow
Our homes are warm and pleasing
We've fixed the thatch above it
The storm must weave ove' it
Happier those with shelter now
When winter winds are freezing
In my walls see love
And the chance of life before you
Turned life like a wave
And the sounds of seas afore you
In the realms of your grave

Labour Of Love
Forced by necessity
I'll write a legend or
These gifts I'll bring to you
For your benefit on all
In anticipation
Things to come
A labour
A labour of love
These sacrifices have been
Tough on our prosperity
A small price to pay
For the knowledge
That we now own
In anticipation
Things to come
A labour
A labour of love
So till we lead to them
Add some finished points in time
I'll think on our ability
To realize the potential
Of our dreams
In anticipation
Things to come
A labour
A labour of love
Bridges of my dreams
Destiny, so it seems
Bridges of my dreams
Destiny, so it seems

Youth
All calculations set to one side;
The inevitable Descent from Heaven
A visitation of memories and a séance of rhythms
Invades the house, my head
And the world of the mind
A horse leaps forward on suburban turf,
Past planted fields and stretches of woods
Misty with carbonic plague
A wretched theatrical woman, somewhere in the world,
Sighs after an improbable indulgence.
Desperadoes lie dreaming of storm, and of wounds and debauch.
Along small streams the little children sit,
Stifling their curses.
Let us turn once more to our studies,
To the noise of insatiable movement
That forms and ferments in the masses.

Black Stream
Where the stars sleep in the calm black stream,
Like some great lily, pale Ophelia floats,
Slowly floats, wound in her veils like a dream.
Half heard in the woods, halloos from distant throats.
A thousand years has sad Ophelia gone
Glimmering on the water, a phantom fair;
A thousand years her soft distracted song
Has waked the answering evening air

I Leave You
You've been chasing butterflies for too long
I've watched you from the garden wall
You would hold beauty in your hand
It's time for you to understand
You can't take her with you
When you go down
I've seen ?searchings? ?foolish back? the years
Postponing death ???? and you'll fear
I've seen the ovens lit up by years
Held on by the wind
That drive away their tears
But you can't take her with you
When you go down
Yeah, wanne leave you
And I'm not take your sorry
Oh, gonna leave you
I'm the man to make you worry
Oh, I will leave you
And if I make you sorry
Who am I to make you sorry

Go Back
