TIME

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain And you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say BREATHE REPRISE Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired It's good to warm my bones beside the fire Far away across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

DO YA THINK I'M SEXY?


Sugar Sugar mmm ... ooh She sits alone waiting for suggestions He's so nervous avoiding all her questions His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking? If you want my body and you think I'm sexy Come on, sugar, let me know If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on, honey, tell me so He's acting shy looking for an answer Come on, honey, let's spend the night together Now hold on a minute before we go much further Give me a dime so I can phone my mother They catch a cab to his high rise apartment At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant If you want my body and you think I'm sexy Come on, sugar, let me know If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on, honey, tell me so His heart's beating like a drum 'Cause at last he's got his girl home Relax, baby, now we are alone [Break]

They wake at dawn 'cause all the birds are singing Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining They got each other, neither one's complaining He say's I'm sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee Never mind, sugar, we can watch the early movie If you want my body and you think I'm sexy Come on, sugar, let me know If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on, honey, tell me so Tell me so, baby

SMOKE ON THE WATER


We all came out to Montereax, On the Lake Geneva shoreline. To make records with a mobile, We didn't have much time. But Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Were at the best place around, But some stupid with a flare gun, Burned the place to the ground. Smoke on the water and fire in the sky. Smoke on the water... They burned down the gambling house, It died with an awful sound. (Uh) Funky Claude was running in and out, Pulling kids out the ground. When it all was over, We had to find another place. But Swiss time was running out, It seemed that we would lose the race. Smoke on the water and fire in the sky. Smoke on the water... We ended up at the Grand Hotel. It was empty cold and bare. But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside, Making our music there. With a few red lights, a few old beds, We made a place to sweat. No matter what we get out of this, I know I know we'll never forget. Smoke on the water and fire in the sky. Smoke on the water...

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE RAIN?


Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm, I know It's been comin for some time. When it's over, so they say, It'll rain a sunny day, I know Shinin down like water. [Chorus] I want to know, have you ever seen the rain I want to know, have you ever seen the rain Comin down on a sunny day Yesterday, and days before, Sun is cold and rain is hard, I know Been that way for all my time. 'Til forever, on it goes Through the circle, fast and slow, I know It can't stop, I wonder. Chorus Yeah! Chorus

LAST TRAIN TO LONDON


It was 9-29,9-29 back street big city. The sun was going down,there was music all around It felt so right. It was one of those nights,one of those nights when You feel the world stop turnin,you were standing There,there was music in the air.i should have been Away,but I knew I'd have to stay. Chorus Last train to london, just headin out, Last train to london, just leavin town. But I really want tonight to last forever I really wanna be with you. Let the music play on down the line tonight. It was one of those nights,one of those nights when You feel the fire is burnin,everybody was there, Everybody to share,it felt so right. There you were on your own,lookin like you were The only one around,i had to be with you, Nothin else that I could do, I should have been away,but I knew I'd have to say. Repeat chorus Underneath a starry sky,time was still but hours Must really have rushed by,i didn't realize But love was in your eyes I really should have Gone,but love went on and on...

Repeat chorus

DON'T STOP
If you wake up and don't want to smile, If it takes just a little while, Open your eyes and look at the day, You'll see things in a different way. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. Why not think about times to come, And not about the things that you've done, If your life was bad to you, Just think what tomorrow will do. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. All I want is to see you smile, If it takes just a little while, I know you don't believe that it's true, I never meant any harm to you. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. Don't you look back, Don't you look back.

JUST THE WAY YOU ARE


Don't go changing, to try and please me You never let me down before Don't imagine you're too familiar And I don't see you anymore I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble We never could have come this far I took the good times, I'll take the bad times I'll take you just the way you are Don't go trying some new fashion Don't change the color of your hair You always have my unspoken passion Although I might not seem to care I don't want clever conversation I never want to work that hard I just want someone that I can talk to I want you just the way you are. I need to know that you will always be The same old someone that I knew What will it take till you believe in me The way that I believe in you. I said I love you and that's forever And this I promise from the heart I could not love you any better I love you just the way you are.

SHOW ME THE WAY


I wonder how your feeling There's ringing in my ears And no one to relate to 'cept the sea Who can I believe in? I'm kneeling on the floor There has to be a force Who do I call? The stars are out and shinning but all I really want to know, "Oh, won't you show me the way, everyday?" I want you, show me the way, yeah Well, I can see no reason, you living on your nerves when someone drops a cup and I submerge I'm swimming in a circle I feel I'm going down There has to be a fool to play my part Well someone thought of healing but all I really want to know, "Oh, won't you show me the way, everyday?" I want you, show me the way I want you, day after day I wonder if I'm dreaming? I feel so unashamed I can't believe this is happening to me I watch you when you're sleeping and then I wanna take your love Oh, won't you show me the way, everyday? I want you, show me the way (One more time) I want you, day after day Hey, I want you, day after day, hey I want you, show me the way, everyday I want you, show me the way, night and day

I want you, day after day, hey, ooh

YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND


When you're down and troubled And you need some loving care And nothing, nothing is going right Close your eyes and think of me And soon i will be there To brighten up even your darkest night You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there You've got a friend If the sky above you Grows dark and full of clouds And that old north wind begins to blow Keep your head together And call my name out loud Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend When people can be so cold They'll hurt you and desert you

And take your soul if you let them Oh, but don't you let them You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there You've got a friend

BREAKFAST IN AMERICA
Take a look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend, never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo across the water, like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true but there's not a lot I can do Could we have kippers for breakfast, mummy dear, mummy dear They got to have 'em in Texas, cos everyone's a millionaire I'm a winner, I'm a sinner, do you want my autograph? I'm a loser, what a joker I'm playing my jokes upon you while there's nothing better to do Don't you look at my girlfriend (Girlfriend), she's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend (Girlfriend), never seem to get a lot (What's she got? Not a lot) Take a jumbo cross the water, like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true but there's not a lot I can do

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven. When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for. Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven. There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure 'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings, Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it makes me wonder. There's a feeling I get when I look to the west, And my spirit is crying for leaving. In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees, And the voices of those who stand looking. Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it really makes me wonder. And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason. And a new day will dawn for those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter. If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now, It's just a spring clean for the may queen. Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on. And it makes me wonder. Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,

The piper's calling you to join him, Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind. And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul. There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold. And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last. When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll. And she's buying a stairway to heaven
