Lyrics

Lookin’ 4

Lookin’ for a lover
all over town
Lookin’ for the lover
who won’t let me down

Lookin’ for a lover
where can she be?
Lookin’ for a lover
How will she find me?

How will I know
when I find that girl?
Will she take me
to a different world?
How will I know
if she’s the girl for me?
And when I find her
how can I be sure?
How will I know if she’s the one
to set me free?

Sweet angel she’ll come to me
In a dream I can see the light
Sweet angel she’ll come for me
Wake me up in the middle of the night

Lookin’ for a lover
Winter to Spring
A real lover
not a one night fling

Lookin’ for a lover
the summer to share
Sweet night lover
Somebody to care

Lookin’ for a lover
It’s just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream

Somewhere Where

You left me hangin’ by a thread
You hung me out to dry
Why oh why
did I listen when you said
You’d always be by my side
Well you lied

Goin’ somewhere where
people can’t find me
Far away, leave the pain all behind me
Somewhere where there’s nothing
left to remind me of you

Sometimes I wake up all alone
and cry out into the night
No one in sight
Spirit sinkin’ like a stone
Darkness without light
No end in sight

Goin’ somewhere where
people can’t find me
Far away, leave the pain all behind me
Somewhere where there’s nothing
left to remind me of you

Yesterday Forever

Cold wind across my face
makes me shiver
Time keeps on slipping
a wayward river
I don’t know now
why you ran
I loved you more
than anyone can
When I loved you yesterday
it was forever

Dark clouds across the moon
look so lonely
Why do I ask so soon
But if only?
I don’t know why
you said goodbye
Now all I ever do is cry
When I loved you yesterday
it was forever

When I loved you yesterday
How could I know
you’d slip away?
When I loved you yesterday
it was forever

Cold wind across my face
It’s getting colder
Time in an endless race
I’m getting older
I don’t know why
you ran away
You know I’ll always love you anyway
Cause when I loved you yesterday
it was forever

Cold wind keeps on blowin’
River don’t stop flowin’

Warm rain caress my cheeks
My secret lover
Flowers in darkest weeks
bloom undercover
I don’t know why
you had to run
Now I’ve just got
to find the sun
When I loved you yesterday
it was forever

Yesterday
Forever

Legend

She spends her days
putting words on a page
Crankin’ out her next novel
But since the fame now
nothin’s the same
Don’t want it all to unravel

Legend at an early age
Lonely in a writer’s cage
Legend at an early age
Life’s given her an empty page

She’s got to fill it up now

You might think now
that she’s drownin’ in ink
Cause sometimes her pen’s bleedin’
Could the words
ever be more absurd?
But she follows them where they’re leadin’

Legend at an early age
Livin’ on a public stage
Legend at an early age
Lookin’ at an empty page

She’s got to fill it up now

First she’s in pain
then she’s happy again
With each new child that’s inside her
Before they’re born
she’ll be battered and worn
Then comes the joy of a mother

Legend at an early age
Capture all the joy and rage
Legend at an early age
Life’s given her an empty page

She’s got to fill it up now

Fatty’s Gone

Fatty’s gone
and the battle is ragin’
Much too late to moralize
When you know it’s war you’re wagin’
You learn to hate the other guys
Rejecting every compromise

Fatty’s gone
And the wind is colder
Play the fool now one more time
Knocks that chip
Right off your shoulder
Leave this cruel world behind
Leave this cruel world behind

He’s gone now
It won’t be long now
Till the river runs to the sea
Awake now
Make no mistake now
This is how it was meant to be

Fatty’s gone
And your mind it wanders
A darkened, crooked corridor
All the time
You chose to squander
Comes to haunt you more and more
Comes to taunt you more and more

Fatty’s gone
And your heart is breakin’
Bear the cross and cross the line
Play your part
At the great awakenin’
Pay the cost or lose your mind
Leave this cruel world behind

He’s gone now
It won’t be long now
Till the river runs to the sea
Awake now
Make no mistake now
That you’re playin’ with destiny

Fatty’s gone
Yes, he’s gone now

Fatty’s gone
And the tide is turnin’
Waves are crashin’ on the shore
Deep inside
A fires’s still burnin’
Another tired metaphor
One more tired metaphor

He’s gone now
It won’t be long now
Till the river runs to the sea
Awake now
Make no mistake now
No escape from reality

Fatty’s gone
Yes, he’s gone now

Just an Illusion

Is it just an illusion?
Have I felt this way before?
Crazy Delusion
Keeps me hopin’ for more
When you’re lonely
for too many nights
Just an illusion
Just an illusion
Just an illusion

Is all right

Is it just an illusion?
Or was that a spark in your eye?
Forgive the intrusion
But are you ready to try?
Don’t hold back now
When the answer’s in sight
Just an illusion
Just an illusion
Just an illusion

It’s all right

Is it just an illusion?
Cause it feels like fallin’ in love
Total Confusion
Or is it a sign from above?
If you feel it
Then turn on the light
Just an illusion
Beautiful-lusion
Be my illusion

Tonight

Just an illusion
Just an illusion
Just an illusion
Just an illusion

Wild Child

Wild Child
Livin' on Dreamtime
She wears the evening stars
as a crown
Soon she'll be gone
but in the meantime
She brings me fire
whenever she comes around

Wild Child
Runs to the sunset
With the moon in her eyes
you know they really do shine
A lady like that
you'll never forget
A lady like that
is so hard to find

Wild Child
Dance to the sunrise
Her body reels and gyrates
to the rhythmic rhyme
When she's gone
you know its no surprise

She's got

So much to do and so little time

So far to go So much to know
So much to see Travelin’ so free
So much to learn Which way to turn
So much to live To take and to give
So much to feel When the fantasy's real

When the fantasy's real
When the fantasy's real

She's got

So much to be

Wheels

Had a dream
I stayed too long in one place
When I woke up
started packin’ my case
Don’t be sad girl
when I go away
Cause wheels are turnin’
in my life today

When I rise up
and go with the dawn
Don’t feel sorry
when you see I’m gone
Wind drives me onward
a lone tumbleweed
Can’t stop my rollin’
I’m from a wild seed

Our time together
Sure went fast
I know you’re searchin’
for a feelin’ that can last
But I’m the wrong one
for holdin’ on
Wheels keep on turnin’
and the road goes on and on and on

Had a dream
I stayed too long in one place
In the mirror
had that look on my face
Distant horizons
you know I can’t stay
Cause wheels are turnin’
in my life today

Shan’s song

Sunbeams, clouds in a whorl
Mountain dreams and the love of a girl
Spirits came, they took us away
We had a lifetime all in one day

A love that's true
and right from the start
A love so pure
though we're so far apart
I love you Shan with all of my heart

And I wish that there was a way
I could find words to say
What you mean to me
I hope you know what you mean to me

Misty greens, bicycle miles
Pub scenes, hot whisky smiles
Island bound, on the cold Irish sea
I heard the words
that you whispered to me

A love that's true
and right from the start
A love so pure
though we're so far apart
I love you Shan with all of my heart

And I wish that there was a way
I could find words to say
How I want you
God knows that I need you

Big cars, waves on the beach
A million stars so close they're in reach
Waterfalls, hot desert sand
A rainbow made us both understand

A love that's true
and right from the start
A love so pure
though we're so far apart
I love you Shan with all of my heart

And I wish that there was a way
We could spend night and day
Together
You know we ought to be
Together

Northern Mary

I first met Mary
On a moon lit night
From the frozen northland
her skin was so white

Eyes deeper
than the bluest sea
She turned 'em my way
and looked right into me

Then I knew
She's a special case
that you don't find often
in the human race

Mary
What twist of fate
brought you my way?
Mary
How can things
now ever be the same?
I don't know
I don't know

The words just flew
from out of her mind
It was all I could do
to keep from fallin' behind

But she spoke so clear
and it rang so true
that she didn't need words
to shine her message through

I'll never forget
how we talked all night
She touched my soul
and made me feel so alive

Mary
It scares me
what I feel for you
Mary
I don't know now
just what I'm gonna do
I don't know
I don't know

2000 miles of mountains
and prairies in between
Can anybody tell me
what it means?

Sometimes I think of Mary
on a cold clear night
when I see a shooting star
leave a trail so bright

When the night sky swirls
'round the northern star
points her way
so cold and so far

I realize
She's a special case
that you don't find often
in the human race

Mary
Rarest child of nature's hand
Mary
I don't try to understand
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

Marina

I met a girl, a spirited flower
Mind and body, beauty and power
Just when I thought that I could go near
She turned away and backed off in fear

Sweet Marina, she’s wearin’ a wall
So afraid of the feelings that call
Sweet Marina’s wearin’ a wall
I want to hear the sound
The wall tumblin’ down

I tried to reach her, and I did what I could
Just bein’ round her
left me feelin’ so good
Just when I thought
the good feeling would stay
She’d turn around and think it away

Sweet Marina, she’s wearin’ a wall
So afraid of the feelings that call
Sweet Marina’s wearin’ a wall
I want to hear the sound
The wall tumblin’ down

Sweet Marina
Sweet Marina

So if you see her will you tell her I care
and if she needs me I’ll always be there
Someday soon, open the flower
Let it blossom, all the beauty and power

Sweet Marina, tear down the wall
Can’t you see you don’t need it at all?
Sweet Marina, tear down the wall

It’s such a beautiful sound
The wall tumblin’ down
Such a beautiful sound
The wall tumblin’ down

Sweet Marina
Sweet Marina
Sweet Marina

The Part

When you got to the part about leavin’
That’s when I started to cry
After all this time believin’ in us
How could you let it just die like that
How could you let it just die?
Now Baby gettin’ used to the fact
That maybe you ain’t comin’ back
I could see it in your eyes

When we got to the end of our story
I saw the ending was sad
After all that time readin’ the book
How could I help but feel bad right then
How could I help but feel bad?
Now Baby gettin’ used to the fact
Maybe you ain’t comin’ back
But you took me by surprise

Our love was strong
like the rock of ages
We wrote the book
now you tear out the pages
Lonely shiver runnin’ down my spine
Knowin’ that you’re no longer mine

You took me by surprise

When you got to the part about leavin’
I didn’t think it was true
All the times we had trouble before
We always found a way through somehow
We found a way to pull through
But now I’m gettin’ used to the fact
That this time you ain’t comin’ back

You took me by surprise

Our love was strong
like the rock of ages
We wrote the book
now you tear out the pages
Lonely shiver runnin’ down my spine
Knowin’ that you’re no longer mine

I could see it in your eyes
You got no disguise
As you say your goodbyes

When you got to the part about leavin’...

Stay

When you came my way
Well I got right to it
Can’t forget that day
Never thought I’d do it
Goin’ all the way
Somehow I always knew it
That you’d be right there by my side

All the times we tried
Never thought we’d find it
Held it all inside
But we were right behind it
Even when we cried
Never really minded
Chasing shadows through the haze

Can’t you just stay
Here for awhile
Must you betray
Me with a smile
Can’t you just say
Say you won’t, you won’t
Leave me alone
Don’t leave me alone

The perfect world we dreamed
How could we ever know it
Nothing as it seemed
No-one left to show it
Livin’ so extreme
Still it had its moments
When the light came streamin’ in

Can’t you just stay
Here for awhile
Must you betray
Me with a smile
Can’t you just say
Say you won’t, you won’t
Leave me alone
Don’t leave me alone

Can’t you just stay
Here for awhile
Won’t you repay
Me with a smile
Can’t you just say
Say you won’t, you won’t
Leave me alone
Don’t leave me alone
