"I Remember Romance"

"I Remember Romance"

I remember romance, bubble baths at night.
Breakfast in the afternoon and love by candlelight, love by candlelight.
I remember romance and lying in her arms.
Her hair across my shoulder, her breast upon my arm, so soft upon my arm.
I remember romance and laughing at the moon,
dancing at the rainbow's end and losing her too soon, losing her too soon.
I know we both are sorry, I know we both still care.
Oh, how could we have lost It, a love beyond compare, a love beyond compare.

"I Remember You"

"I Remember You"

I remember you, you're the one that made my dreams come true
just a few kisses ago, I remember you.
You're the one who said I love you too, yes I do.
Didn't you know I remember too, a distant bell and stars that fell, like the rain out of the blue.
When my life is through and the angels ask me to recall the thrill of them all
then I will tell them I remember, tell them I remember, tell them I remember you.

I remember too, a distant bell and stars that fell, like the rain out of the blue.
When my life is through and the angels ask me to recall the thrill of them all
then I will tell them I remember, tell them I remember, tell them I remember you.

"I Want To Live"

"I Want To Live"

There are children raised in sorrow on a scorched and barren plain,
there are children raised beneath a golden sun.
There are children of the water, children of the sand,
and they cry out through the universe, their voices raised as one:
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.

Have you gazed out on the ocean, seen the breaching of a whale?
Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam?
Have you heard the song the humpback hears five hundred miles away?
Telling tales of ancient history of passages and home?
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.

For the worker and the warrior, the lover and the liar, for the native and the wanderer in kind.
For the maker and the user, and the mother and her son.
I am looking for my family and all of you are mine.

We are standing all together, face to face and arm in arm.
We are standing on the threshold of a dream.
No more hunger, no more killing, no more wasting life away.
It is simply an idea and I know its time has come.
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,
I want to share what I can give, I want to be,
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live, I want to live, I want to live.

"I Watch You Sleeping"

"I Watch You Sleeping"

I watch you sleeping, little angel face.
And on behalf of the human race, welcome to this crazy place.
I watch you sleeping, innocent and free.
I don't know what your dreams may be. You don't know what you mean to me.

You have never heard thunder, you have never seen the rain.
But you can still feel the wonder, you can still feel the pain.
And sometimes you look at me, so wise and so sure,
I could easily believe you have been here before.

I watch you sleeping, little angel face.
And on behalf of the human race, welcome to this crazy place.
I won't be here forever, but as long as I'm around, I promise you I will never let you down.
To help make a world you can feel worthy of, I will teach you to fly on the wings of my love.

I watch you sleeping, brave and unaware. You don't know yet so you don't care.
I want you to know it's hard out there.

I watch you sleeping, little angel face.
And on behalf of the human race, welcome to this crazy place.
I watch you sleeping, I watch you sleeping, I watch you sleeping,
I watch you sleeping, I watch you sleeping, I watch you sleeping.

"I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free"

"I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free"

And I wish I knew how
It would feel to be free
I wish that I could break
All the chains holding me
I wish I could say
All the things that I'd like to say
Say 'em loud say 'em clear
For the whole round world to hear
I wish I could share
All the love that's in my heart
Remove every doubt that keeps us apart
And I wish you could know
What it means to be me
Then you'd see and agree
Every man should be free

I wish I could live

Like I'm longin' to live
I wish I could give
What I'm longin' to give
And I wish I could do
All the things I'd like to do
You know they still are quite a few
Yes Sir...
And I'm way way over due

I wish I could be like a bird up in the sky
How sweet it would be
If I found out I could fly
So long to the sun
And look down upon Ihe sea
And I sing because I know
how it feels to be
And I sing because I know
how it feels to be
And I sing because I know
how it feels to be free
Yeah

"I'd Rather Be A Cowboy"

"I'd Rather Be A Cowboy"

Jessie went away last summer, a couple of months ago.
After all our time together, it was hard to see her go.
She called me right up when she arrived, asked me one more time to come,
but living on an LA freeway ain't my kind of having fun.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy, I think I'd rather ride the range.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy than to lay me down in love and lady's chains.

When we were just beginning, it was such an easy way.
Laying back up in the mountains making love for sunny days.
She got tired of picking daisies and cooking my meals for me,
she can live the life she wants to, yes, it's all right with me.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy, I think I'd rather ride the range.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy than to lay me down in love and lady's chains.

I'd rather live on the side of a mountain than wander through canyons of concrete and steel.
I'd rather laugh in the rain and sunshine and lay down my sundown in some starry field.

Oh, but I miss her in the morning when I awake alone.
The absence of her laughter is a cold and empty sound.
But her memory always makes me smile and I want you to know,
I love her, yes I love her just enough to let her go.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy, I think I'd rather ride the range.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy than to lay me down in love and lady's chains.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy, I think I'd rather ride the range.
I think I'd rather be a cowboy than to lay me down in love and lady's chains.

"I'm In The Mood To Be Desired"

"I'm In The Mood To Be Desired"

Another day is over, I'm on my way home. Knowing you'll be waiting is all I need to know.
'Cause I'm in the mood to be desired, wrap your arms around me.
I'm in the mood, let's build a fire, till the embers retire we'll be lost in a world of ecstasy.

Forget about your troubles, forget about my woes.
You're the one who comforts me whenever I feel alone.
'Cause I'm in the mood to be desired, wrap your arms around me.
I'm in the mood, let's build a fire, till the embers retire we'll be lost in a world of ecstasy.

You're everything I could imagine. You fill me up with such passion, baby.
Eternity is not long enough for you and me.
'Cause I'm in the mood to be desired, wrap your arms around me.
I'm in the mood, let's build a fire, till the embers retire we'll be lost in a world of ecstasy.

"I'm Sorry"

"I'm Sorry"

It's cold here in the city, it always seems that way,
and I've been thinking about you almost every day.
Thinking about the good times, thinking about the rain.
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again.
I'm sorry for the way things are in China, I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be.
More than anything else, I'm sorry for myself cause you're not here with me.

Our friends all ask about you, I say you're doing fine. I expect to hear from you almost anytime.
They all know I'm crying, and I can't sleep at night. They all know I'm dying down deep inside.
I'm sorry for all the lies I told you, I'm sorry for the things I didn't say.
But more than anything else, I'm sorry for myself. I can't believe you went away.

I'm sorry if I took some things for granted, I'm sorry for the chains I put on you.
But more than anything else, I'm sorry for myself for living without you.

"I've Been Working On The Railroad"

"I've Been Working On The Railroad"

I've been working on the railroad all the livelong day.
I've been working on the railroad just to pass the time away.
Can't you hear the whistle blowing, rise up so early in the morn.
Can't you hear the whistle blowing, Dinah, blow your horn.
Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?
Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah, someone's in the kitchen I know.
Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah strumming on the old banjo.
Fee fie fiddle eeii o, fee fie fiddle eeii o, fee fie fiddle eeii o,
strumming on the old banjo.

"If Ever"

"If Ever"

I'd sing you a song without a word, still you would hear my tune.
I'd give you a day without a time so it won't end too soon.
Oh, anything, I would do, and that really is my point of view,
if ever, my darling, in my life, I ever had a chance to love you.

I'd build you a world made of the dream that dances in your head.
Take a rainbow with colors bright to hang over your bed.
Anything, I would do, and that really is my point of view,
if ever, my darling, in my life, I ever had a chance to love you.

Fate's been waiting for the right time to put us in each other's arms,
but why should we sit and waste time? To start right now would do no harm.

Oh, give me a sign and I will show you the magic of which I speak.
Open your heart, let me come in. My love is yours to keep.
Oh, anything, I would do, and that really is my point of view,
if ever, my darling, in my life, I ever had a chance to love you.
If I ever had a chance to love you. If I ever had a chance to love you.
If I ever had a chance to love you. If I ever had a chance to love you:.
