"Sleeping In The Middle Of The Bed"

"Sleeping In The Middle Of The Bed"


Caught in a love storm
Howlin' like a newborn
Trying hard to stay warm
My cover-up is torn up and tattered

Addiction to Apocalypse
Looking for the big hit
Tending to take trips
The ship of love is beat up and battered

Time after time I blow me away
Sign on the streets now
Brother let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe it's here to stay

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
Till you been there, you won't get well

I was sitting in a room I'd never recognize it
With a picture before my eyes
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

Lost in a crosswalk
Battle only half fought
Crawling 'cause I can't talk
Childhood finally caught up with me

Flashing like a neon
Noisy as an A-bomb
Looking to the beyond
Staring into the half-life of eternity

Time after time I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother let me pray now
Winter's here I believe it's here to stay

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
Till you been there, you won't get well

I was sitting in a room I'd never recognize it
With a picture before my eyes
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

New York, New York, The Big Apple
New York, New York
New York, New York
16 million feet stepping on each other
New York is a state of mind

Time after time I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother let me pray now
Winter's here I believe it's here to stay

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
Till you been there, you won't get well

I was sitting in a room I'd never recognize it
With a picture before my eyes
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I've been sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

"So Much To Say, So Much To Give"

"So Much To Say, So Much To Give"


So hard to be
Free to
Love only you
People
Starin' at me
Try to
Take you away
There's no
Time to delay
We've got to live for today
I've got
So much to give
There is
So much to say
Night after night
Day after day
In spite of our words
They all turn away

"Somebody, Somewhere"

"Somebody, Somewhere"


The sun is coming up
But I don't see the light
I keep goin' on and on
Thinking bout' where we went wrong
I always heard that love
Could stand the test of time
But somethin' that we had is gone
Maybe we just stayed too long
I wish that I could lie
And tell myself it's alright
It was nothing at all
[CHORUS]
Somebody, somewhere
Is falling in love tonight
Is nothing at all
Somebody, somewhere
Is saying there last goodbyes
I gotta know
Is it the same when it comes
And when love goes
Where do I go from here
Don't know where to turn
Will you find another face
Or disappear in yesterday
Should I hold on
Should I let all the memories go
Was it nothing at all
She comes and goes
[CHORUS]

"Someday (August 29, 1968)"

"Someday (August 29, 1968)"


Would you look around you now
And tell me what you see
Faces full of hate and fear
Faces full of me
Do you feel the rumblings
As your head comes crumbling down
Do you know what I mean
Run, you better, run you know
The End is getting near
Feel the wind of something hard
Come whistling past your ear
As they try to get you
Where it will upset you
Down
Now you know what I mean
Someday you will see how long
We've waited for the time
To show you how we've died
To get together with you all
Twist and turn your head around
'Till everything's unclear
Twist and turn your arm around
Until it is not there
And they'd love to burn you
Or at least to turn you around
Now you know what I mean
Can you look around you now
And tell us what's to be
Can you look inside yourself
And tell us what you see
As you feel the rumblings
As your head comes crumbling down
And you know what I mean
Someday you will see how long
We've been waiting for the time
To show you how we've died
To get together with you all

"Something In This City Changes People"

"Something In This City Changes People"


Later days will see me
Knowing what I spend
They are friend
So sad so sad
Smiling face greet me
Everyone's my friend
They Pretend
So sad so sad
They see I am happy
With my lady
They're not satisfied
All their feelings died
Something in this city
Changes people
Makes them devil-eyed
My love she waits for me
When I'm far away
Counting days
So sad so sad
They all know our story
Still they try to play
Anyway
So sad so sad
Flashing cars and morning
Funny faces
Egos magnified
Quite Unjustified
Something in this City
Changes People
Makes them devil-eyed

"Something's Coming, I Know"

"Something's Coming, I Know"


You worn it out and man, it just don't fit you no more.
And don't you try to deceive me
You know that you can believe me
If you're man enough you're gonna hear the bitter truth
So, won't you come on?
Something's coming, I know
Something's coming, it shows
Something's coming, I know
You disappointing everyone just messin' around now
It's clear enough, you know, we're all running clean out of time
Don't want ever grieve you
Have bunch of us bereave you
And if you're man enough you're gonna hear the bitter truth
So, won't you come on?
Something's coming, I know
Something's coming, it shows
Something's coming, I know, believe me now
Something's rounding the bend
Something always comes in the end
Something's coming, I know,
And when your children ask about your life
And all the memories you might make tonight
You forsake tonight
Nothing last forever

"Song For You"

"Song For You"


Wanted to show I'm a man;
Say the word and I'll tell you again;
Wanted to show I'm a man you can rely upon,
That's all I am.
I am a man that you can count on;
Call out my name and I'll be there.
I'm a man you can be sure of, baby,
It's your love that takes me there, takes me there.
I am a man that you can lean on;
Call out my name and I'll be there.
I'm a man you can be sure of, baby,
It's your love that takes me there, takes me there.
Wanted to show I'm a man;
Say the words to me, say it again;
Want you to know I'm a man you can depend upon,
That's all I am.
I'm a man that you can count on;
Call out my name, and I'll be there.
I'm a man you can be sure of, baby,
It's your love that takes me there, takes me there.

"Song Of The Evergreens"

"Song Of The Evergreens"


Listen to the briskly whistling winter evergreen
Whispering through the frozen morning light
And tell me what's to come
Saying my time is near
Never fear
How close each year
I'm winter
Reminding me to trade my t-shirts for my woven wools
Trade my sandals for my skis
Whispered warnings in the wind
Saying soon come the dancing snowflakes
They're kissing every tree
They're kissing you and me
Please hurry
Falling
Dazzling dancing diamonds from the sky
Prisms
Rainbow sparkled flurries in our eyes
Whipping across the frozen crystal metal pines of ice
Race the snow
We'll spend the mornings by our bed
They cuddle close and wine and dine
The setting sun
The morning light will blind those eyes
Shooting down the glistening
Outside
Screaming through the whispering pines
The freedom of each day
Will cleanse our minds
I can hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow
I can hardly hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow

"Sophisticated Lady"

"Sophisticated Lady"


They Say Into Your Early Life Romance Came,
And In This Heart Of Yours Burned A Flame,
A Flame That Flickered One Day And Died Away,
Then, With Disillusion Deep In Your Eyes,
You Learned That Fools In Love Soon Grow Wise,
The Years Have Changed You, Somehow;
I See You Now...
Smoking, Drinking, Never Thinking Of Tomorrow,
Nonchalant, Diamonds Shining, Dancing, Dining
With Some Man In A Restaurant
Is That All You Really Want?
No, Sophisticated Lady, I Know,
You Miss The Love You Lost Long Ago,
And When Nobody Is Nigh You Cry.
Is That All You Really Want?
No, Sophisticated Lady, I Know,
You Miss The Heart You Lost Long Ago,
And When Nobody Is Nigh You Cry.

"South California Purples"

"South California Purples"


Cloudy every morning
Sun don't never shine
Cloudy every morning
Sun don't ever shine
Since I lost my baby
I been losing my mind
I thought this was a warm place
I must be in the wrong place
Thought this was a warm place
I must be in the wrong place
And I don't know where I'm going
Since my lover left me
Never no smile on my face
I am he is you are he is you are me and we are all together, woah woah
Buddy, this ain't LA
I've travelled such a long way
Buddy, this ain't LA
I've travelled such a long way
And I still don't know where I'm going
But without my baby
I better not stay
I better not stay, no ow woah no
