Come to me now And rest your head for just five minutes Everything is done Such a cozy room The windows are illuminated by the evening Sunshine through them Fiery gems

You can spend all your time making money You can spend all your love making time If it all fell to pieces tomorrow Would you still be mine? And when you're looking for your freedom And you can't find the door When there's nothing to believe in Still you're coming back You're running back You're coming back for more... Put me on a highway Show me a sign Take it to the limit One more time

One love, one blood One life, you got to do what you should One life, with each other Sisters, brothers One life but we're not the same We get to carry each other, carry each other One One

Sometimes you start feelin' so lost and lonely Then you'll find it's all been in your mind Sometimes you think someone is the one and only Can't you see, it could be you and me? But if there's any doubt Then I think I'll leave it out Cause I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want Till you know what you want Said you can't get what you want Till you know what you want

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

A bullet had found him His blood ran as he cried No money could save him So he laid down and he died Ooh, what a lucky man, he was Ooh, what a lucky man, he was

Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position I've held It pays my way and it corrodes my soul I want to leave, you will not miss me I want to go down in musical history Frankly, Mr. Shankly, I'm a sickening wreck I've got the 21st century breathing down my neck I must move fast, you understand me I want to go down in celluloid history, Mr. Shankly

From every dingy basement, on every dingy street Every dragging handclap over every dragging beat It's just the beat of time, the beat that must go on

Got brass in pocket Got bottle, I'm gonna use it Intention, I feel inventive

Can you hear what I'm saying Can you see the parts that I'm playing Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie, Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed Meanie

There are places I'll remember All my life though some have changed Some forever not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places had their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all

Said hey, little boy, you can't go where the others go 'Cause you don't look like they do Said hey, old man, how can you stand to think that way? Did you really think about it before you made the rules? He said, son That's just the way it is Some things will never change That's just the way it is Ah, but don't you believe them

Just remember that the goal Is for us all to capture all we want, anywhere Don't surround yourself with yourself Move on back two squares

You just call out my name And you know, wherever I am I'll come runnin' To see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there You've got a friend

Tell all of my friends I don't have too many Just some rain-coated lovers' puny brothers Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt Rush to danger Wind up nowhere Patric Doonan, raised to wait I'm tired again, I've tried again, and Now my heart is full Now my heart is full And I just can't explain So I won't even try to

Why's it so soft when the cannons Unload on the others? Why're we so loud when we say It won't happen to us? Why does my mind blow to bits Every time they play that song? It's just the way that he sings Not the words that he says, or the band I'm in love with this soul It's a meaning that I understand

They were definitively solid, but so much of it comes down to age and perspective.

Oh, the glory of it all! That was a decade of great films. For the 80's, throw Airplane, Raging Bull and Scarface onto the pile!

The deeper you go, the higher you fly The higher you fly, the deeper you go So come on come on Come on its such a joy Come on its such a joy Come on let's make it easy Come on let's make it easy Take it easy, take it easy Everybody's got something to hide except for me and My monkey

And if you go chasing rabbits And you know you're going to fall Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar Has given you the call Call Alice When she was just small

Since you been gone, I can do whatever I want I can see whomever I choose I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant But nothing I said nothing can take away these blues 'Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you

"Kathy, I'm lost", I said, although I knew she was sleeping I'm empty and aching and I don't know why I'm Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike And they've all gone to look for America

As the present now Will later be past The order is rapidly fadin' And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'

I don't mind other guys dancing with my girl That's fine, I know them all pretty well But I know sometimes I must get out in the light Better leave her behind with the kids, they're alright The kids are alright
