Some things are better left unsaid
I'm gonna spend my days in bed
I'll walk the streets at night
To be hidden by the city lights, city lights


Love is like oxygen (love is like oxygen)
You get too much you get too high (too high)
Not enough and you're gonna die (gonna die)
Love gets you high

Think about it, there must be a higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is wasted time
Look inside your heart, and I'll look inside mine

… A long, long time ago
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while

Turn, turn any corner
Hear, you must hear what the people say
You know there's something it's going on around here
It surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day, no


And it appears to be a long (yes, it does)
Appears to be a long (mmm)
Appears to be a long
Time, such a long, long time
Before the dawn

I've been swimming in a sea of anarchy
I've been living on coffee and nicotine
I've been wondering if all the things I've seen
Were ever real, were ever really happening (were ever really happening)


Every day is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Every day is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer

I feed from the bottom, you feed from the top
I live upon morsels you happen to drop
And coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup
If nothing comes down then I'm forced to swim up

All around the cathedral, the saints and apostles
Look down as she sells her wares
Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares


Though her words are simple and few
"Listen, listen", she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey

All in the village

a place to eat and drink

revelers come calling

and i have to think

 

Who are these friends

I never knew well before

they go with trends

and people they deplore

Off the wind on this heading lie, the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of the waterline
Nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized
Why twice you ran away

(I think about)
Think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger voices calling
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten

You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel to be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible," as he hands you a bone

 

And something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal

How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

And if they have the words I can tell to you
To help you on the way down the road
I couldn't quote you no Dickens, Shelley or Keats
'Cause it's all been said before
Make the best out of the bad, just laugh it off, ha
You didn't have to come here anyway


So, remember, every picture tells a story, don't it?
Every picture tells a story, don't it?

Just like crazy Otto, just like Wolfman Jack,
Sittin' plush with a royal flush, aces back to back.
Just like Mary Shelly, just like Frankenstein,
Clank your chains, and count your change, and try to walk the line.

 

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on rose.

High on a hill was a lonely goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo


Folks in a town that was quite remote heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo

Give me what you can tonight
Time is all we have to play
Tell me you can't live without me
Tell me every day by day by day

Day by day
Nothing lasts forever, only fades away
Day by day

I got troubles, whoa-oh
I got worries, whoa-oh
I came home again

 

But I woke up this morning
You were on my mind...
And
You were on my mind

 

Yeah, I got troubles, whoa-oh
I got worries, whoa-oh
I got wounds, to bind

Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind
You're the key
To my piece of mind

 

'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
(Woman)

You've got a cute way of talking
You got the better of me
Just snap your fingers and I'm walking
Like a dog hanging on your lead
I'm in a spin you know
Shaking on string you know

You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make feel like dancing
I feel like dancing
Dancing, dance the night away
I feel like dancing, dancing, aaaah

I don't wanna talk 
About things we've gone through 
Though it's hurting me 
Now it's history

I've played all my cards 
And that's what you've done too 
Nothing more to say 
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all 
The loser's standing small 
Beside the victory 
That's OUR destiny🙏

When I think about those nights in Montreal
I get the sweetest thoughts of you and me
Memories of love above the city lights
Oooo, I've tried so hard to take it
But alone my heart won't make it

 

I just wanna stop
And tell you what I feel about you, babe
I just wanna stop
I never wanna live without you, babe
I just gotta stop
For your love...

Somewhere out on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be somethin' better
But there's nowhere else in sight


It's survival in the city
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity
When you're down, that's where you'll stay

When you're down and troubled
And you need some lovin' care
And nothin', nothin' is goin' right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

Hey
Well, I feel so good, everything is getting high
You better take easy, 'cause the place is on fire
She know a thing, and I have so much to do
We made it, baby, and it happened to you

 

And I'm so glad we made it
So glad we made it, you gotta

 

Gimme some loving (gimme, gimme some loving)
Gimme some lovin' (gimme, gimme some loving)
Gimme some lovin' every day (eh)
