Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best
I wonder if she'll ever do the same
Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied
With knowin' I got no one left to blame
Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you

Take me for a ride
Take me all the way
Take me where I've never been
Someplace I can stay
Don't get yourself too hot
Don't get yourself too high
If we don't take it easy now
We can kiss it all goodbye
 
Cool the engines
Slow this rocket down
Cool the engines
Why don't ya take a look around

When I get restless, what can I do?
When I need someone, I think about you
I got to move on, not fade away
I'm only just growing, a little each day

(Hold it) I got to quit this runnin' 'round
(Hold it) Never gonna get rid of these blues
(Hold it) I got to find somebody to love
Slow me down, yeah
My, what a time (Look out now)


Sit yourself down, take a look around
Sit yourself down, take a look around
Sit yourself down, take a look around
Sit yourself down, take a look around

I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work 'til I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
'Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) can anybody find me somebody to love?

I used to wonder if I
Could dance when my friends said to
Take a chance
Maybe I’d flit across
The floor into the arms of a new romance
Take the wild in my eye
Lovin’ arms
Turn it over with all my charms
Twist around and around and around
By you
Say the things that you want me to
But I would always lose my nerve
As soon as I would reach you there
I felt my feet stuck to the ground
I could not make my move
I could not make my move
Snowflakes that melt in the sun
Beautiful songs that’ll never be sung
These are the stories that follow the human race
Spirits that long to be free
Waiting in you, waiting in me
Waiting in lovers all over the universe
All over the universe...

Sounds of laughter, shades of life
Are ringing through my open ears
Inciting and inviting me
Limitless, undying love
Which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

I've been floating in the night sky
On a ship that's stuck on standby
Your voice reminds me i'm real
I made a choice and now i wait here
Orbiting the earth for five long years
Our lives like magnetic fields


You are my universe
You are my universe
And i'm just a planet
And i can't stand it

Many years have passed since those summer days

among the fields of barley

See the children run, as the sun goes down

among the fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves

upon the fields of barley

You can tell the sun, in his jealous sky

when we walked in fields of gold

When we walked in fields of gold

When we walked in fields of gold

Color of the sky as far as I can see is coal grey.
Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again.
Shiver in my bones, just thinking about the weather.
Quiver in my lip as if I might cry.

Well by the force of will my lungs are filled and so I breathe.
Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave.
Shiver in my bones, just thinking about the weather.
A quiver in my voice as I cry,

What a cold and a rainy day.
Where on earth is the sun hid away?

If you would only stop to live
One moment at a time
You would, I think, be startled by
The things that you would find
Like scents you never noticed
And many subtle sounds
Like colors in the landscape
And textures of the town

Well I was born in a small town
And I live in a small town
Probably die in a small town
Oh, those small communities
 
All my friends are so small town
My parents live in the same small town
My job is so small town
Provides little opportunity

My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air
And dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so

Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out, till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah don't take my heart don't break my heart
Don't, don't throw it away

I went back to the doctor
To get another shrink.
I sit and tell him about my weekend,
But he never betrays what he thinks.


Can you see the real me, Doctor? Doctor?

Can you see the real me, Doctor? Whoa, Doctor?


I went back to my mother
I said, "I'm crazy, Ma, help me."
She said, "I know how it feels son,
'Cause it runs in the family."

I saw you there, just standing there
And I thought I was only dreaming yeah
I kissed you then, then once again
You said you would come and dance with me
Dance with me across the sea
And we could feel the motion of a thousand dreams 

 

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand

 

I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can

 

Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long

Sitting in the classroom, thinking it's a drag
Listening to the teacher rap, just ain't my bag
The noon bells rings, you know that's my cue
I'm gonna meet the boys on floor number two!

 

Smokin' in the boys' room
Smokin' in the boys' room
Now, teacher, don't you fill me up with your rules
But everybody knows that smokin' ain't allowed in school

We're gonna play you a song, a little bit of rock-n-roll
You gotta let yourself go, the band's gonna take control
We're gettin' off today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
 
Smokin', smokin'
We're cookin' tonight, just keep on tokin'
Smokin', Smokin'
I feel alright, mamma I'm not jokin', yeah

So I sing you to sleep after the lovin'
With a song that I wrote yesterday
And I hope that it's clear what the words
And the music have to say
 
It's so hard to explain all the things that I'm feeling
Face to face I just seem to go dry
But I love you so much that the sound
Of your voice can make me high

How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the song from fading
Too fast?

 

How do you lose yourself to someone
And never lose your way?
How do you not run out of new things
To say?

 

And since you know we're always changing
How can it be the same?

"...Oh very young, what will you leave us this time
You're only dancin' on this earth for a short while
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now
They will vanish away like your dads best jeans
Denim blue, faded up to the sky
And though you want them to last forever
You know they never will
You know they never will
And the patches make the goodbye harder still..."

I done ran into my baby
And finally found my old blue jeans
I done ran into my baby
And finally found my old blue jeans
Well, I could tell that they was mine
From the oil and the gasoline

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady
Seamstress for the band
Pretty-eyed, pirate smile
You'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must've seen her
Dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand

 

Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back, she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man, he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on, she sings the songs
The words she knows, the tune she hums

I wish I was a headlight, on a north bound train
I wish I was a headlight, on a north bound train
I'd shine my light through, cool Colorado rain

 

I know you rider,gonna miss me when I'm gone
I know you rider gonna miss me when I'm gone
Gonna miss your baby, from rolling in your arms

I hear the train a comin'
It's rollin' 'round the bend,
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since, I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
And time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a-rollin'
On down to San Antone

Well, on a train, I met a dame
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walking down that old fair lane
I'm in heat, I'm in love
But I just couldn't tell her so
 
I said, train kept a-rolling all night long
Train kept a-rolling all night long
Train kept a-rolling all night long
Train kept a-rolling all night long
With a heave, and a ho

All aboard!
 
Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love and forget how to hate
 
Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I'm gonna take a freight train, down at the station
I don't care where it goes
Gonna climb me a mountain, the highest mountain
Jump off, nobody gonna know
 
Can't you see oh can't you see
What that woman, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman lord been doin' to me
