"Live Let Live"

"Live Let Live"


I've got a notion we come from the ocean
And God Almighty has his hands on the water
Blue pacific, as azure as the sky

Perfect for fish, making a wish
Just like a teardrop to fall
Whale passin' me by, wonderin' why
Live let live, not die

I am a diver, a long-line survivor
And man's small whale's all
Body gravity zero
Play the hero, don't mean nothing you see

Man passin' by, caught in the eye
Ponderin' wherefore and why
God help me for whale babies that cry
Live let live, not die

My heart beats so fast
(heartbeat, heartbeat, heartbeat...)
Our hearts meet at last

Feature creatures of God
Let them abound, where they are found
Let's get the hell outta here

"Love And Mercy"

"Love And Mercy"


I was sittin' in a crummy movie
With my hands on my chin
All the violence that occurs
Seems like we never win

Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight

I was lying in my room
And the news came on TV
A lotta people out there hurtin'
And it really scares me

Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy to you and your friends tonight

I was standing in a bar
And watching all the people there
Oh, the loneliness in this world
Well it's just not fair

Hey, love and mercy, that's what we need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy tonight
Love and mercy tonight

"Love Is Here To Stay"
(originally by George Gershwin)

"Love Is Here To Stay"
(originally by George Gershwin)



It's very clear our love is here to stay
Not for a year but ever and a day
The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go

But oh, my dear, our love is here to stay
Together we're going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may tumble, Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But our love is here to stay

The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go

But oh, my dear, our love is here to stay
Together we're going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may tumble, Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But our love is here to stay

"Make A Wish"

"Make A Wish"


I wish I had a magic wand
To make wishes all come true
Help our troubled world along
Time to come to its rescue

Make a wish, make a wish
Make it come true
Make a wish, make a wish
Your dreams pursue
It starts with me and you

No more walls to separate
No more laws to segregate
Enough food under the sun
Homes and hope for everyone

Make a wish, make a wish
Make it come true
Make a wish, make a wish
Your dreams pursue
It starts with me and you

Find cures for all disease
Forest growin' brand-new trees
Need clean air for us to breathe
Purify our lakes and seas

Make a wish, make a wish
Make it come true
Make a wish, make a wish
Your dreams pursue
It starts with me and you

One big global vision
Spinning out in space
We are all connected
With the human race

Racial peace, equality
Say goodbye to bigotry
Crowds and violence disappear
Love replaces hate and fear

Make a wish, make a wish
Make it come true
Make a wish, make a wish
Your dreams pursue
It starts with me and you

No more wars just harmony
In God's grand community
Keep our children home at last
All this craziness must pass

Make a wish, make a wish
Make it come true
Make a wish, make a wish
Your dreams pursue
It starts with me and you

Finding cures for all disease
Forest growin' brand new trees
Help our troubled world along
To make wishes all come true

As I sit and close my eyes
There's peace in my mind
And I'm hoping that you'll find it too
And these feelings in my heart
I know are meant for you

Meant for you
Doop doo doo dooo
Doop doo doo dooo
Doop doo doo dooo
Doop doo doo dooo

"Meet Me In My Dreams Tonight"

"Meet Me In My Dreams Tonight"


Tonight I'll drive home all alone
And maybe later we'll talk on the phone
But it takes a little more to get me through
If we can't get together here's what we'll do
Hold on

And meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light
Meet me in my dreams tonight

I've been waitin' all day
Now I won't let nothin' stand in my way
'Cause I just can't wait to see your face
At the usual time and the usual place
Hold on

And meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light
Meet me in my dreams tonight

Oh lullaby (bye baby)
Goodnight (bye baby)
Oh lullaby (bye baby)
Goodnight (bye baby)
La-hullaby (bye baby)
Goodnight (bye baby)

Gotta get together gotta really try
There's a wonderland waitin' for you an I
Hold on hold on

Meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light
Meet me in my dreams tonight

Meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light
Meet me in my dreams tonight

Meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light
Meet me in my dreams tonight

Meet me in my dreams tonight
Baby close your eyes and hold on tight
Sleep in my arms until the mornin' light

"Melt Away"

"Melt Away"


I wonder why
Nothin' ever seems to go my way
But every time I see you
I get that same old feelin'
And my blues just melt away, melt away

The world's not waiting just for me
The world don't care what I can be
I feel just like an island
Until I see you smilin'
And my blues just melt away, melt away

I won't let you see me suffer
Whoa not me
I won't let you hear me cryin'
Whoa not me
I won't let you see me sighin'
Whoa not me
Whoa oh oh

Sometimes I close up to the world
You know I close up to you girl
But when I hear you talking
I feel my heart unlocking
And my blues just melt away, melt away

Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey

(Dit) dit dit dit
(Dit) dit dit dit
(Dit) dit dit dit
(Dit) dit dit dit
And my blues just melt away, melt away

(Melt away) melt away (melt away) (melt away)
Melt away (melt away) (melt away)
Melt away (melt away) (melt away)
Melt away (melt away) (melt away)
Melt away (melt away) (melt away)
Melt away (melt away) (melt away)

"Mexican Girl"

"Mexican Girl"


Hey, Mexican girl
A dahlia in your hair
The soul of Los Feliz where laughter fills the air
Won't you make me smile
Light up my sundial
Girl, you cast a net
On the day we met
Mexican, Mexican, Mexican girl
Danced her way into my world

Hey, Mexican girl, with eyes of burning fire
Heal me with your passion
Inspire me to inspire

Loyal and strong, yet tender as a song
Help me understand, make me a better man
Mexican, Mexican, Mexican girl
Danced her way into my world

Hey, bonita muchacha
Don't you know that I want ya?
Hey, bonita muchacha
I need to know that I got ya

You have my sacred heart
We'll finish at the start
Can you picture me
In your family tree?

Mexican, Mexican, Mexican girl

"Midnight's Another Day"

"Midnight's Another Day"


Lost my way
The sun grew dear
Stepped over graves
And stood in seers
Took the dive but couldn't swim
A flag without the wind

When there's no morning without you
There's only darkness the whole day through
Took the diamond from my soul
And turned it back into coal

All these voices
All these memories
Make me feel like stone
All these people
Make me feel so alone

Lost in the dark
No shades of grey
Until I found
Midnight's another day

Swept away in a braying storm
Chapters missing, pages torn
Waited too long to feel the warmth
I had to chase the sun

All these voices
All these memories
Make me feel like stone
All these people
Make me feel so alone

Lost in the dark
No shades of grey
Until I found
Midnight's another day

"Morning Beat"

"Morning Beat"


Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah
Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah

The sun burns a hole through the 6am haze
Turns up the volume and shows off its rays
Another dodger blue skies is crowning L.A.
The city of angels is blessed everyday

That lucky old sun smiles on me
Wanna slide down the mountain to the dancing sea

I'm listening to the morning beat
It's rising from star-studded concrete
The city has my favourite soundtrack
It makes you wanna move even though it's laidback

Take it in stride, it'll kickstart your feet
When you're tuned in to the morning beat

Driving through the maze of the Hollywood Hills
Headed to the ocean for a view that could kill
Watching from the wheel at Santa Monica pier
A million diamonds floating on heavenly tears

The gentle wind won't make a sound
Even though it's forcing the waves to pound

Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah
Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah

Hear those guitars gently strumming
Hear those voices softly humming
It's hard to feel down
Living in this town
But you're so far away
It's a long, long way from January
All the way to December

Even when the sun and I head off the street
There's an unspoken promise that we keep
We'll pilot our light into another day
And keep a golden glow warming up L.A.

Even when dreams are deep and sweet
I'm listening for the rhythm of the morning beat
I'll listen for the morning beat
I'll listen for the morning beat

Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah
Maumamayama glory, Hallelujah
