Darling please, try to understand. No, no, no, no.It’s not my fault. I promise I’ll make it up to you some other time.But let’s not fight. There’s plenty for us to do tonight.There’s bound to be something on the tube. Maybe if we stay in for a little while, the storm will pass and we could go out again. I got a red hot plan I hope you understand my love.We’ll be cuddling by candlelight this Saturday night. The city streets are empty cause it looks like rain. Darling please, try to understand. No, no, no, no. It’s not my fault. I promise I’ll make it up to you some other time. But let’s not fight. There’s plenty for us to do tonight. There’s bound to be something on the tube.

The lines in her face are deep. The sugar in her blood is sweet. Darling please, try to understand. No, no, no, no. It’s not my fault. I promise I’ll make it up to you some other time. But let’s not fight. There’s plenty for us to do tonight. There’s bound to be something on the tube. It looks like rain. Darling don’t complain, cause you itch my brain.

Somewhere In Time
03:56
|

|
Broken shells and rising tides. Full moons and summer drives. Love that’s lost, is better than nothing at all. Strolling in the ocean breeze, Hand and hand we walk this dream. With your hair pulled back, And my favorite shirt on. Pink balloons and carousels, Flying kites and writing songs. Down on the beach, With my toes in the sand. Oh how long the nights were then, They’d go on and on and on again. Seems we never slept and all we did was live. Somewhere in time, the stars got in my eyes. Just another change with age, in all that’s lost and what’s to save. Wondering where it all went wrong. Wondering where I belong. Come along with me let’s jump the day to see what follows. Closing down I’ll show you how. Dreams were lost but the time is now. All I ever wanted has been shut down. Don’t lose the hope, don’t ever choke. With your back to the wind and a grin on your face, The sun in your eyes, and a song in your heart. Somewhere in time, the stars got in my eyes. Just another change with age, in all that’s lost and what’s to save. Wondering where it all went wrong. Wondering where I belong. Come along with me let’s jump the day to see what follows.

On Through The Night

Baby, would you like it maybe if we spent the night together holding each other tight. On through the night. On through the night. Sunshine, crept in through your window. We must have lost track of time, every time We’re together. Yeah, On through the night. How can something so wrong, feel so good and so right? Moonbeams, mesh together with candlelight. Dancing up on your walls, ceiling and floor for us. Yeah for us. Safe place, in my baby’s arms, far from harm. Far from everyone. I’m out there on the roof, counting my lucky stars. Baby, would you like it maybe, if we spent our life together. Living out our time, from here on in. From here on in. We could, take one day at a time, loving on through the night. On through the night. Loving on through the night. On through the night. On through the night. On through the night.

Back in the box again, I’ll be out late. Don’t try to wait, up for me. Cause I’ll be out late Cause I’m back in the box again. We could have done it all ourselves, but now I’m down and out. Cured by love, killed by love, my love. Where did you go? No, I cannot see. No I can’t see you. No, I can’t see you. No I can’t see you. We could have loved it all ourselves, but now I’m down and out. We could have killed it all ourselves, but now I’m down and out.

Would somebody tell me, that it’s all worth fighting for. It’s all worth fighting for. Would somebody tell me, that it’s all worth loving more. It’s all worth loving more. I can’t help but feel discouraged as of lately. But then I try to be happy for what we have. To much resistance, conspiracy and fear. All alone in that great big swirling stormy sea. She’s out there waiting for me. When I’m high, let me tell you boys oh how I can fly. And when I’m low, and things are looking like zero. I need a little help, to get me on my feet again. Enemies aren’t so bad, but look out, here come my friends. Would somebody love me, that it’s all worth living for. It’s all worth living for. Would somebody love me, that it’s all worth caring more. It’s all worth caring more. She’s out there waiting for me. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting. Yeah she’s waiting, for me.

Ride on, through heartbreak mountain. I was out, looking for something. Cause this cowboy ain’t nothing but trouble. Always cussing and fighting and drinking and playing them songs Gunsling’n, horse riding all day long. I slept down in teardrop valley. Where the coyote’s scream and cry. Cause this cowboy’s on the run from the law dog. Wanted in forty-eight states dead or alive. I’ve been running so long I can’t remember what I did wrong. Time to ride on, outlaw Boogie Jones. Ride on! Time to ride on, outlaw Boogie Jones. Ride on, outlaw Boogie Jones, you’re out there on your own. I stopped down, to lucky’s general store. I needed more whiskey and bullets for my ride. When in comes walking the sheriff of this one horse town. He said “it’s time to through down outlaw Boogie Jones!” I put one, two, three, four, five, six, seven bullets in his brain. Time to ride on, outlaw Boogie Jones. You’re out there on your own. The road is your home. Ride on Boogie Jones.

This One's For Hero
04:54

This one’s for hero. Martyr to all your sincerity. Now that the show is over, where did they all go? Why did they leave me alone? Remember when he was younger, and everything was fun? We’d go climbing up through the trees. But then as time does pass our hero never could grasp the love. Never could grasp the love. Where is the break? One at a time they all fall down around me. Who’s to say whether I’m wrong or if I’m right? Don’t hold your breath. Leaving my whispered dirty past behind. If you want to break a piece or kill the hope, you’d best get in line. You’ll never get what’s inside, cause you can’t pass my eyes, yeah. You’ll never get what’s inside, cause you can’t pass my eyes. Oh. We go La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. La, la, la, la, la. This one’s for hero. Died and now I live the positive way. Yeah, yeah. Hero we wish you well. Save yourself before you try to save the world. Before you try to save the world. Before you try to save the world. Before you try to save the world.

In The Sunshine

Sunshine, wait for me. I’ll meet you in the spring. When flowers seem to grow. Lover’s like you and I seem to bloom. Bloom, in the sunshine. Touched by the light. Fascinated by the dark, growing under your beams. Soon will come our day to live. Live, in the sunshine. Do you recall all those times the desert let us in? With her love, with her light. You and I walked upon her back. Tracing our path to a reborn life. Under the desert sun we became one. In the sunshine. Love. Love, in the sunshine. Blood warmed by the star. How ever near or far. My heart is with you love. Find you way home in time. Time, in the sunshine, in the sunshine, in the sunshine, in the sunshine, in the sunshine, in the sun.

One hundred times maybe more I told you don’t come knocking on my door. I don’t want to see you around here no more. Devil woman don’t make no sense, you broke my heart and that was just the start. It’s hard to see in these troubled times of mine. Mean ole woman left me for dead. She emptied that gun of hers right into my chest. Now I’m singing songs to the doctor high above. Doctor, doctor fix me up right. Better make it fast I’m gonna get revenge tonight. Woman’s gonna pay for what she done to me. I’ve been all over town. And I’ve searched high and low, just as I was about to give up and go home. I turned around and sure enough there she was. Well as the doctor stitched me up I noticed on his wall. My baby’s loving picture hanging there for all to see. I said “hey doc, what gives? Is this some kind of conspiracy?” The doctor turned to me with a sad look and this is what he said. “yeah, yeah, yeah!” The doctor said “it was me all along, been seeing your woman And playing all your songs” as you can imagine I was a bit surprised. Mean ole woman left me for dead. She emptied that gun of hers right into my chest. Now I’m singing songs to the doctor high above. Mean ole woman left me for dead. She emptied that gun of hers right into my chest. Now I’m singing songs to the doctor high above.

But we could meet in the middle, we’ll meet in the middle on down the road a ways. Been diggin’ a tunnel back into your heart. Thanks for all the letters, they really helped a lot. I got in trouble today, yeah, yeah. They took my privileges away. Been stampin’ your name on all those license plates. Parole board threw It away. The warden said “hey buddy, you’re here to stay” I’d like to thank the state corrections for pointin’ me in the right direction. I’m bustin’ out of the bighouse tonight. So listen baby, you gotta drive the car. Meet me up on the interstate and don’t forget my guitar. You’re on the outside, and baby I’m on the in. But we could meet in the middle, we’ll meet in the middle on down the road a ways. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Can't Go Back
03:56
|

|
Baby take your time. But honey you gotta make up your mind, Well I’m growing old and fading quick. You kicked me out and you shut me in. You broke m e down I’ll never win. Remember all the times that we cried. Time can change a man. Yes it can. You know I wouldn’t expect you to understand. But you gotta except that our times gone by. You’re different now I’m not really sure Which way or how things would be if we did. Now I can’t go back. You know I covered my tracks. Besides the bridge is gone. And I’m moving on. You know I can’t go back. Now I can’t go back. All at once all within. You’re broken now but where you been? I was alone looking for something. You kicked me out, out in the cold. So what I’m trying to say through all those times and holidays. I never thought that this would come to pass. So we could be happy or open the past and bring misery. I guess we’ll have to just wait and see. Now I can’t go back. You know I covered my tracks. Besides the bridge is gone. And I’m moving on. You know I can’t go back. Now I can’t go back.

Walkin' With The Red
05:19
|

Hey everybody if I could have your attention for one moment please. I want to tell you about a woman who could bring you to your knees. Warm and lovin’ woman born unto the sun. She sparkled in the light, even in the night with no clothes on. This rock n’ roll momma wouldn’t rock n’ roll with me. She wouldn’t rock n’ roll no not with me. She said “your out too late glasses too dark wings are too weak Smile’s too wide I don’t like to fly too blue bye bye.” Dance, dance, dance for me momma. Take a chance, chance, chance with me baby. Put ya in a trance, trance, trance little honey. Jump the fence, fence, fence for ya momma. I turns to her now baby please give me a chance. Let me explain then if you feel the same I’ll leave you be. I love you from the top down past your toes and all in between. Yeah nobody knows except you and me and a gentle red rose All the rock n’ roll shows yeah a bubble needs a bath. Down on the beach with a cup of tea. Won’t you stay with me? Hey everybody won’t you come along. I made some mistakes but I still belong. I hope you still love me when I’m dead and gone. But Hey everybody won’t you sing, sing my song. Well I still worry about these things that I can’t control. The snakes will hide in the tall grass but I’m not worried about that no. Scorpion knows its role even when heartache has taken its toll. Closing off the world hiding deep in my womb. We’ll remerge real soon. I’m trying to get mine in before the big storm comes. One rolled over across my chest making it hard to breath. I reached for you in need of mouth to mouth. But you shot me down I’m shaking on the ground. Walkin’ with the red is better than dead take it from me. Don’t watch life go by from the backseat. Take the wheel by the hand. Love that woman all you can, you can. Hey everybody won’t you come along. I made some mistakes but I still belong. I hope you still love me when I’m dead and gone. But Hey everybody won’t you sing, sing my song.

Come on little horsey ride em’ high were going into town late tonight. Don’t want your money don’t want your pride. I got my heart set on a special surprise. When I’m gone I’ll leave a whisper or maybe a note I’ll send. The gumball bandit strikes again. Don’t want no stick don’t want no piece. Bazooka Joe don’t spell relief. Running with the women drinking my wine, pop in a gumball and I’m feeling fine. The nightlife is for me when I’m having fun this midnight thief. Hiding here looting there don’t need no gun I’ll just use my stare. No threat of any kind could break my will or leave me in despair. Late last night I had a run in with the law. He tried to take me down but I couldn’t get caught. The gumball bandit strikes again. The gumball bandit strikes again. The gumball bandit is a victim of man. Won’t you understand? Come and join my band. Yeah a victim of man.

When It All Comes Down

So, so long ago thought you’d be there. Thought you’d be there. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. Thought you’d be there in the end when it all comes down. Do, do you remember the time we shared. The time we shared. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. The time we shared in the end when it all comes down. But much to my surprise, my friends. When it all came down in the end, it came down to me. Where is the love for the time we shared? It was over before I knew it. We could have been the greatest of all. The greatest of all. We could have been the greatest. To, to you from me I’ll always care. I’ll always care. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. In the end, in the end when it all comes down. I’ll always care in the end when it all comes down. But much to my surprise, my friends. When it all came down in the end, it came down to me. So I guess we’ll part, we’ll part paths for now my friends. And I hope we’ll meet again someday. Sad to say when it all came down I was looking the other way, And I didn’t get to say goodbye.
