"His Land"

"His Land"


Yes it is his land, all of it his
He stepped it off and marked it there,...stepped it off and marked it there
To be his ugly thoroughfare,...to be his ugly thoroughfare
And he blessed it with his hand,...yes it's a great land, all of it is
And as it blooms before our eyes,...as it blooms before our eyes
Just like an eden paradise,...like an eden paradise
The world will understand,...world will understand...this is his land

Slowly from hiding but surely they come
Back to the homeland their fathers will front
Israel their citadel, israel their home
Now they are here at last never to roam
Here they will stay and bring life to the land
It's a new day and with boldness they walk, tall and so straight
See them stand

Yes it is his land, all of it his
He stepped it off and marked it there...stepped it off and marked it there
To be his ugly thoroughfare,...to be his ugly thoroughfare
And then he blessed it with his land,...yes it's a great land, all of it is
And as blooms before our eyes,...as it blooms before our eyes
Like an eden paradise,...like an eden paradise
The world will understand,...world will understand...this is his land

Rich fertile valleys of russet and gold, carpets of green over mountains
Unfold
Harvest of plenty so joyous and bright, her fields her treasures
Magnificent sight
This is the israel promised of old, this is the miracle happening now
As ages in prophets fortold

Yes it is his land.....

"Hold On"

"Hold On"


Love show me the way when I am lost and hope begins to fade
Love timeless and true whenever
I need strenght
I look to you
Tonight my faith is strong enough to see me through
Tonight you've got to trust in love the way I do
We gotta hold on tight-tonight

Hold on - nothing's gonna stop us if we just
Believe in love
Hold on - there's nothing under heaven we can't overcome-
Hold on

Now I see the way the tide'll turn and
The part I'll play
(it's) all part of a plan - you don't have to know
Or understand tonight I'll see it all unfold before my eyes
Tonight - with fortune on my side and love to
Guide me
The future is looking bright - tonight

Hold on - nothings gonna stop us if we just
Believe in love
Hold on - there's nothing under heaven we can't
Overcome so hold on
And tho' the road ahead maybe unknown we'll
Make it if we hold on

"Hold Us Together"

"Hold Us Together"


Nothing ever stays the same
Everything must change
Just take a look around you
You know it will astound you

History unfolding shows us
Good intentions pass
And a love once pledged in moonlight
Isn't guaranteed to last

[Chorus:]
(Only your love is constant baby)
(Only my love for you)
Only your love can hold us together
Only you - and everything you do
Just one kiss and my dreams come true
Only you - and everything you say
Only loving you - can make me feel this way
People who just play at love
Make loving something cheap
And it's only worth the playing if we
Play the game for keeps

The book of life has pages girl
That you and I must turn
And in every chapter in every story
Something there to learn

[Chorus]

Love is patient, love is kind
Love is rarely ever blind
Take a look and you will find

That love is just caring
And sharing our loving together

"Homeward Bound"

"Homeward Bound"


I'm sitting in the railway station.
Got a ticket to my destination.
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band.
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping,
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines.
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping,
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.

Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
I'll play the game and pretend.
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping,
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.
Silently for me.

"Hot Shot"

"Hot Shot"


Ready steady gonna meet you on the ballroom floor,
Brother Eddie quit your banging on my bathroom door,
After shaving yeah and after three,
I'm after having me some fun you see,
I'm getting ready for the night to come,
And here I come.

[Chorus:]
I'm just a hot shot hitting town,
(Have a little fun),
Just a hot shot getting down,
(Ready steady run),
I'm just a hot shot looking around,
(Loving on the run),
I'm having fun.

Get the recognition each and every place I go,
Fashion leader in the cuban heel and pointed toe,
My Italian suit is pressed and clean,
I'm the Latin lover of thelocal scene,
I'm getting ready for the night to come.

[Chorus]

A faded picture on the mantleshelf,
My older brother looks like myself,
Remember Donny dated Susie,
And Susie rated Johnny,
Johnny's into Susie,
But Susie'a into Ronnie,
Ronnie waits for Louie,
But Louie's singing Louie-Lou-ie.

[Chorus]

"House Without Windows"

"House Without Windows"


I'm gonna move into
A house without windows
So I'll never see you walking by,
Walking by, with your new love

There in the darkness of
My house without windows
I won't have to see the stars that shine,
Shine on you and your new love

I'd rather wander through an endless night
Than face the light of another lonely day
Knowing that you won't be there,
There to share these two arms ever again

I'll take my broken heart
And I'll take all my broken dreams
And from now on you will find me there
Crying there, trying to forget

That you no longer want me
That you no longer need me
That you've gone and left me,
Left me here all alone

In my house without windows,
In my house without windows, without windows
And without love
In my house without windows,
In my house without windows
And without love

"How Did She Get Here"

"How Did She Get Here"


Another town I've never heard of
Another 5 am motel
Another wordless conversation
Between a memory and myself

One night I just started driving
Now I've been driving seven days
I could tell myself I'm gone
But I still can't get away

I left her there
Slipped out while she was sleeping
I left her there
Like a ghost I disappeared

Oh, I didn't even know where I was going
Oh, how did she get here?

I choose my exit signs at random
I never travel one straight line
I should be so damn hard to follow
But she's waiting every time

I left her there
Slipped out while she was sleeping
I left her there
Like a ghost I disappeared

Oh, I didn't even know where I was going
How did she get here?
How did she get here?

One of these days
I'm bound to find a town
She won't turn up
Every time I turn around

I left her there
Slipped out while she was sleeping
I left her there
Like a ghost I disappeared

Oh, I didn't even know where I was going
Tell me how did she get here?
How did she get here?
How did she get here?

How did she get here?
How did she do it?
How did she find me?
How did she get here?
How did she get here?

"How Long Is Forever"

"How Long Is Forever"


You ask me how the flowers grow
And what makes the glow-worm glow
How high is the sky, how long is forever

You want to know how any corn small
Grows to be a tree so tall
How deep is a sigh, how long is forever

Oh, (all) your little funny ways,
I just can’t ignore
All the foolish things you say
Make me love you more

You ask me if, if my love is true
Here’s the answer I give you
I’ll be at your side as long as forever

Oh, (all) your little funny ways,
I just can’t ignore
All the foolish things you say
Make me love you more
Forever...

"How Wonderful To Know"

"How Wonderful To Know"


How wonderful to know you really love me
How wonderful to know you really care
How beautiful to feel my arms around you
Kissing your eyes
Hearing your sighs
Touching your hair

How wonderful to know sunshine and laughter
That fills my empty heart with love divine
To share this life with you now and hereafter
How wonderful to know
That you are mine

To share this life with you now and hereafter
How wonderful to know
That you are mine

"Human Work Of Art"

"Human Work Of Art"


No one on earth means more to me
Your painted pictures are the way that the world
Should be
Don't ever change it, I don't wanna live in this
World without you
Oh no

I can't explain, I can't define
What you do to me, but my senses are so alive
You tell your story and it's all that I ever believe

Portraits and poetry are frozen forms of perfection
But they don't live and breathe
When my heart's in need they don't answer me
You - ooo oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You - ooo oooh you are, you're a human work of art
You make me love, you make me care
You give me freedom I don't need when I know
You're there
My search is over I've got all of the riches that
Money don't buy, Oh no

Your words are poetry and your face is more than
Perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything to do

You - oooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You - ooooh ooh you are, you're a human work of art

You're my mission
You're my goal
Oooh you liberate my soul

There's no illusion, that your touch is gold

Portraits and poetry are frozen forms of perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything you do

You - oooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking new sensation
You - ooooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
