LYRICS

Pieces of Time

Maybe tomorrow
Maybe sometime
We’ll fly a spaceship across the sky
And settle on a world somewhere
One which you are always near

But I heard a clock chime
And it changes my mind
We’re so scared of pieces of time

Maybe in April
When flowers thrill
I’ll meet you walking upon a hill
Forgetting winter’s icy breath
Forgetting all unquietness

But I heard a clock chime
And it changes my mind
We’re so scared of pieces of time

May you have riches
May you have songs
We’ll know them by heart, every one
Ever young and ever old
Our desires we can hold

But I heard a clock chime
And it changes my mind
We’re so scared of pieces of time
Pieces of time

Memory Street (lyrics by Marvin Etzioni)

I always thought that I was the strong one
Pain was a word that would never find me
Now I know that I was the wrong one
I never returned when you set me free

If I could you know I would
Never walk down
I’d never walk down
Never walk down
Memory Street
Memory Street

A bulletproof vest would have been no protection
How I wore my heart on my sleeve
I expected not perfection
Just a little more air to breath

If I could I know I would
Never walk down
I’d never walk down
Never walk down
Memory Street
Memory Street

I never signed no dotted line
For the love that was promised me
But I can turn back the hands of time (yes I can)
And live on Memory Street

If I could you know I would
Never walk down
I’d never walk down
Never walk down
Memory Street
Memory Street

Oh wo wo wo…

Dreaming of a Kiss

We were in a garden
When he said he must be going
So I turned around to leave him
Like a hundred other suitors

I just walked on till I saw someone dreaming
Dreaming of a kiss
Dreaming of a kiss

As I made my way home
Past his gate and through the forest
How the birds above were screaming
As a crow swept down to watch me

I just walked on till I saw someone dreaming
Dreaming of a kiss
Dreaming of a kiss

We were by a low wall
And the stones were rich with lichen
And the grass waving beneath me
Was a lake of autumn sunlight

I could see my home from there
Through the distant shining air
But I left it then forever
And I shan’t return again

I just walked on till I saw someone dreaming
I just walked on till I saw someone dreaming
I just walked on till I saw someone dreaming
Dreaming of a kiss
Dreaming of a kiss
Dreaming of a kiss

Oh ho ho
Oh ho ho
Oh ho ho
Dreaming of a kiss
Dreaming of a kiss

Michael

When I look into your eyes
I see the world go by
Like a cloud alone at the edge of the sky
Casting a doubtful eye

Michael draw the curtains from your window
Nobody else could ever love you
Take a hard look at the city between us
Nobody else could find you

As the day dims to evening
There are no angels singing
I only feel your alarm, your alarm
As you fall into my arms

Michael draw the curtains from your window
Nobody else could ever love you
Take a hard look at the city between us
Nobody else could find you

Yellow and brown
The city is burning
Or is it just the sky?
Always a crowd
Disappears at the end
And a tiptoeing lullaby
Calls me to you
Never so true

Michael draw the curtains from your window
Nobody else could ever love you
Take a hard look at the city between us
Nobody else could find you

The Rain

Hello rainy days
Coming over the hill
In a stroke of gray
Hello rainy days
I wasn’t ready then
But I think I’m ready now
For many rainy days

See the rain coming down
Like mighty tears
On the hallowed ground
I’m ready for a change
The world is not the same
So I think that I could pray
For many rainy days

Hooray the rain
Hail to the rain
Hooray
Hail to the rain
Hooray
Hail to the rain

Summer was long the springs were dry
My love was strong but I was shy
Winter broke cold the river froze
Western wind when will thou blow?

Hello rainy days
I feel I could sleep and not awake
But if something could grow
Like roots beneath the snow
I think then we could know our love through rainy days

Hooray the rain
Hail to the rain
Hooray
Hail to the rain
Hooray
Hail to the rain
Hooray
Hail to the rain
Na na na
Na na na na na na
The rain
I can feel it coming down
The rain the rain

After Today

Last time we kissed I was thinking to myself we’re done
Pressed to you lips and held in your perfect arms

After today
It’s gonna get better
Cuz it’s love or nothing
After today

I know sometimes we fight and I’ve been wondering why on earth that we do
But if everything were perfect I guess I’d just sleep the whole day through

After today
It’s gonna get better
Cuz it’s love or nothing
After today

Let go of yesterday
With all we have
Tomorrow is shining
Tomorrow is shining
Tomorrow is shining through for you

Let go of yesterday
With all we have
Tomorrow is shining
Tomorrow is shining
Tomorrow is shining through

It’s gonna get better
Cuz it’s love or nothing
After today
After today
It’s gonna get better
Cuz it’s love or nothing
After today
After today
After today

All I Know

Tears won’t shake me
Dreams won’t wake me
Like you do

Water can’t harm me
Nor fire alarm me
Like you do

Well I sat beside a shining pool
All the while reflecting you
And I walked under a sky of blue
All the while falling too

That’s all I know
All I know, all I know, all I know
That’s all I know
That’s all I know
All I know, all I know, all I know
That’s all I know

Years can’t age me
Friends can’t change me
Like you do

Night makes me sleepy
But you drug me completely
Oh yes you do

I plucked a pansy by a lake
All the while my thoughts did race
And I walked among the columbine
Singing sweet Ophelia’s lines

Oh that’s all I know
All I know, all I know, all I know
That’s all I know
That’s all I know
All I know, all I know, all I know, all I know
That’s all I know
All I know, all I know, all I know
That’s all I know
All I know, all I know, that’s all I know
That’s all I know

And Your Bird Can Sing (lyrics by John Lennon and Paul McCartney)

Tell me that you’ve got everything you want
And your bird can sing
But you can’t get me
You can’t get me
You say you’ve seen seven wonders
And your bird is green
But you can’t see me
You can’t see me

When your prize possessions
Start to let wear you down
Look in my direction
I’ll be ’round
I’ll be ’round

When your bird is broken
Will it bring you down?
You may be awoken
I’ll be ’round
I’ll be ’round

Tell me that you’ve heard every sound there is
And your bird can swing
But you can’t hear me
You can’t hear me

Might As Well Stay

Drifted to the shore, the sea was rough
We’d broken our oars and just had enough
I knew I’d give in when you poured your cup
We’ll see how we feel when the sun comes up

Oh – the world it don’t change
Oh –
Might as well stay

Looking from a hill I saw you wander in
The sea lost your path
It was disappearing
Your lips gave voice to a deep sea hymn
We’ll see how we feel when the spring comes in

Oh – the world it don’t change
Oh –
Might as well stay

I thought my spirit was clear
Thought my season was rare
Thought my seas would be more fair
Thought my truth would never tear
Thought my logic was square
Thought my country would appear
Thought I’d be walking on air
But I’d love you anywhere

Oh –
Might as well stay

Might as well stay
