Sleep in Dreams
02:38
|
|||
|
I awoke to a rainy day,
golden shoes worn on feet of clay.
"Something's wrong," I heard someone say...
how can you say you're in love?
Suddenly I've seen things have changed,
when it ends it will stay the same.
"Something's wrong", I heard someone say...
how can you say you're in love?
Sleep in dreams always,
dream in sleep,
and so,
if you dream of me,
let me know...
Sleep in dreams always,
dream in sleep,
and so,
if you dream of me,
let me know…
Sleep in dreams always,
dream in sleep,
and so,
if you dream of me,
let me know...

Wonderland

Wonderland, wonderland...
where I'm going if I can,
maybe skies where angels fly,
maybe not, who knows?
Wonderland, wonderland...
where I'm going if I can,
maybe time or peace of mind,
maybe not, who knows?
Maybe I'll find,
no clouds this time,
maybe I'll find sunshine.
Maybe I'll find,
no clouds this time,
maybe I'll find some sunshine.

Simple Pleasures
02:53
|

|
Simple pleasures lost in love,
a silhouette, a moon above.
Self-assured, a winsome face,
full of fortune, love's embrace.
Never forgotten, a fragile shell,
dreaming of you alive and well,
time goes on, I strangely see,
a lovely girl lost in mystery.
Never forgotten, a fragile shell,
dreaming of you alive and well,
time goes on, I strangely see,
a lovely girl lost in mystery.
Thinking something's really there,
fading now, lost in thin air...

Heaven Forbid
02:49
|
|||
|
I can't do what I once did,
tell the truth, heaven forbid.
Got to say what I need to say,
learn to live life day by day.
Try to laugh when I'm so sad,
tell a stranger I'm his dad.
What's the use, there isn't time,
overworked and past my prime.
Days are short like a flash in a pan,
you deal your cards as best you can.
Too many questions I can't comprehend,
but I do know where it's all going to end...
It's all going to end!

There Are Walls
02:56
|
|||
|
In this apartment there are walls,
in this apartment there are floors,
things I have had for years,
good times, bad times,
sometimes some tears.
In this apartment there are doors,
in this apartment there are more things I have had for years,
good times, bad times,
sometimes some tears.
Windows on a wall, nice of you to call...
Windows on a wall, nice of you to call...
In this apartment there are walls,
in this apartment there are walls...

Ladder to the Basement
02:49
|
|||
|
While I'm falling down,
while I kind of care,
while the room spins around,
you should have been there.
While I stand around,
while I feel the air,
while I'm upside down,
then out of nowhere...
I will climb the ladder to the basement,
when I hit the ground...
I will climb the ladder to the basement,
when I hit the ground.
When I hit the ground,
or sitting up instead,
when I lay back down,
asleep in my bed.
When I'm lost or found,
when I remember when,
when I hear a sound,
or see something there.
I will climb the ladder to the basement,
when I hit the ground...
I will climb the ladder to the basement,
when I hit the ground.

Bathe in Light
02:48
|
|||
|
Not a care, died too young,
no tomorrow's or rising sun.
Raise a glass, make a toast,
as others rot and decompose.
Don't give life too much thought,
never seek what can't be bought.
Cruel and cold, something's near,
do you know what's hiding here?
Friends and lovers come and go,
never be happy with the status quo,
bathe in light, you've got it made,
turn around, you've been betrayed.
Go in circles, waste your time,
there's no such thing as peace of mind.
Scream out loud or be discreet,
you'll come to learn life's incomplete.
Friends and lovers come and go,
never to be happy with the status quo,
bathe in light, you've got it made,
turn around you've been betrayed.
Friends and lovers come and go,
never to be happy with the status quo,
bathe in light, you've got it made,
turn around, you've been betrayed.

Look Around You
03:00
|
|||
|
It's a lovely day,
look around you,
why do I feel this way?
It's a give and take,
look around you,
why do you feel this way?
It's a lovely day,
look around you,
why do I feel this way?
And for goodness sake,
look around you...
Cloudy skies,
maybe more sunny days,
sunny skies,
maybe more rainy days...

Far Gone
02:38
|
|||
|
He was fit to be tied,
there was nobody home,
he would say he's resigned to be here all alone.
He's awake while he's asleep,
he is sometimes incomplete,
he's so close to you it seems,
then he's so far gone.
When he's lost he will find what he's missed all along,
more or less he will see something's dreadfully wrong.

Lovely Day
02:44
|
|||
|
Close at hand, I feel so far away,
it's the sadness of a lovely day,
where I seem to stand on feet of clay,
it's the sadness of a lovely day.
Cloudless days,
sun in spite of a grey rainbow in summer skies,
gentle breeze, birds fly by,
can you help me if you have the time?
sun in spite of a grey rainbow in summer skies,
gentle breeze, birds fly by,
can you help me if you have the time?
I can feel the sun upon my face,
I can feel the darkness of this place,
there's not a cloud in the sky...

Bare Trees
02:46
|
|||
|
No more thinking, so you thought,
mixed emotions, overwrought,
there was no choice, I heard your voice.
Tell me what to do, you're never wrong,
a smile, a kiss, will keep me strong,
walk the line, pass the time.
Old bare trees like veins in the sky,
they've lost their leaves but they haven't died,
the spring will come, the sun will shine,
the leaves will bloom, all will be fine.
No more thinking, so you thought,
mixed emotions, overwrought,
there was no choice, I heard your voice.
Old bare trees like veins in the sky...

Naked and Truthful
02:36
|
|||
|
I don't know who I am,
too meek and scared to understand,
that what I see and what I feel,
is never right and never real.
Lying down so close to me,
whispering how it will be,
a lasting cure for my ills,
an empty bottle of pretty pills.
Naked and truthful,
with nothing left to hide,
I give myself to you,
my death-defying bride...
Naked and truthful,
with nothing left to hide,
I give myself to you,
my death-defying bride...
Naked and truthful,
with nothing left to hide,
I give myself to you,
my death-defying bride...

Hello to Everyone
03:15
|
|||
|
Hello to everyone hiding here,
and to those having fun,
hello to everyone hiding here,
living under the gun.
Hello to everyone of good cheer,
when it's over and done,
hello to everyone hiding here,
under somebody's thumb.
Closets, chairs and halls...
someone said they'd call...
what are you here for?...
what was left and what's in store...
Windows on a wall...
I rise then I fall...
ceilings and a floor...
you and me and nothing more...
Hello to everyone hiding here,
and to those having fun,
hello to everyone hiding here,
living under the gun.
