"Turn On Your Love Light"

"Turn On Your Love Light"



Without a warning you took my heart,
You took it darling, tore it apart
You left me sittin in the dark, cryin'
Said your love for me was dyin'
I don't believe it, I think you outta turn it up
Turn on your love light
turn it on up
just a little bit

I get a little lonely
In the middle of the night
I need your lovin'
Make it all right
I need your love girl
Or else I ain't all right
I need your lovin'
Or else I ain't all right
Bring it to me now
Bring it to me now
Bring it home darlin'
An turn it on up now
Just a little bit
A little bit
Turn it up a bit

"Turn The Page"

"Turn The Page"



On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out it's one note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant all strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode

Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliche's, is it woman is it man?
You always seem outnumbered, so you don't dare make a stand

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play

Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage yeah
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, there I go

"U.M.C. (Upper Middle Class)"

"U.M.C. (Upper Middle Class)"



I wanna be a lawyer
Doctor or professor
A member of the UMC

I want an air conditioner
Cottage on the river
And all the money I can see

I wanna drive a Lincoln
Spend my evenings drinking
The very best burgandy

I want a yacht for sailing
Private eye for tailing
My wife if She's a bit too free

I've been told ever since a boy
that's what one aught to be
A part of the UMC

I want a pool to swim in
Fancy suits to dress in
Some stock in GM and GE

An office in the city
Secretary pretty
Who'll take dictation on my knee

I want a paid vacation
Don't want to have to ration
A thing with anyone but me

And if there's war or famine
Promise I'll examine
The details if they're on TV

I'll pretend to be liberal but I'll still support the GOP,
As part of the UMC

I wanna be a lawyer
Doctor or professor
A member of the UMC

"Understanding"
(from the film "Teachers")

"Understanding"
(from the film "Teachers")



It seems like only yesterday
I didn't have a clue
I stood alon not knowin where to turn
Now suddenly I look around
And everything looks new
I don't know why, but I think I'm startin' to learn
They call it understanding
A willingness to grow

I'm finally understanding
There's so much I can know
Until the day you came along
I used to just get lost
I only heard the things I wanted to hear
It always seemed like no one cared
But then you took the time
And now I look and everything seems clear
You've got me understanding
You've really helped me see

I'm finally understanding
It's meant so much to me
You've got me understanding
You're really on my side
You've got me understanding

"Vagrant Winter"

"Vagrant Winter"



Relentlessly the wind blows, without conscience without sound
And the howling echoes louder, from the lonely hungry hounds

Vagrant Winter's in the alley and he's waiting
And you my love come softly now and ease my troubled mind
As we huddle by the fireside
Slowly running out of time

Born December's children, learned to live without a sky
That's beneath the tallest buildings, even our childhood was a lie

Vagrant winter's at the door now and he's moaning
Come closer love and hold me, we may be the next in line
As we huddle by the fireside, slowly running out of time

Vagrant winter's in the moon now and he's stealing
As long as you stay with me love, as long as you are mine
I can make it through the worst, in the vagrant winter time

"Very Few"

"Very Few"



Very few in life composed a symphony
Very few in life sing love's melody

Only some will love but one their whole life through
Only two always, and two are very few
Very few in life find a rainbow's end
Very few in life love then love again

Only some will love but one their whole life through
Only two always, and two are very few

"Wait For Me"

"Wait For Me"



I will answer the wind
I will leave with the tide
I'll be out on the road
Every chance I can ride

No matter how far
No matter how free
I'll be along
If you'll wait for me

There'll be times when I rise
There'll be times when I'll fall
There'll be times when it's best
To say nothing at all

Know when you're right
I'm letting it be
I'll be around
If you'll wait for me
If you'll wait for me

And I'll fight for the right to go over that hill
If it always means something to me
I will not be persuaded
I won't be still
I'll find a way to be free

In the cool of the night
In the heat of the day
If you're ever in doubt
I'll be on my way
Straight to your side

I guarantee
I'll be around
If you'll wait for me
If you'll wait for me

"We've Got Tonight"

"We've Got Tonight"



I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don' you stay?

Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away
I've longed for love, like everyone else does
I know I'll keep searching, even after today
So there it is girl, I've said it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?

I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Both of us lonely

We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last, let's find a way
Turn out the light, come take my hand now
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?
Why don't you stay?

"West Of The Moon"

"West Of The Moon"



Out on those trails
Out 'neath that sky
Rivers of old
Still rushing by

Eagles still soar
White mountains loom
Down in those valleys
West of the Moon

West of the stars
Far from the chase
Far from the crowds
Far from the pace

Horses run free
Winter comes soon
Out by those mountains
West of the Moon

And everywhere
Everywhere
Wild things are free
Free in the wind and the sun

Everywhere
Everywhere
As it should be
Left on their own while they run

Out by those mountains
West of the Moon
