"Lazy Day"

"Lazy Day"



Lazy day, Sunday afternoon,
Like to get your feet up, watch T.V.
Sunday roast is something good to eat,
Must be beef today 'cause lamb was last week.

So full up, bursting at the seams,
Soon you'll start to nod off, happy dreams.
Wake up, for tea and buttered scones
Such a lot of work for you Sunday Moms.

It's such a crying shame
Week after week the same.

Today's heaven-sent and you're feeling content,
You worked all week long.
Still, it's quite sad tomorrow's so bad
And I don't feel so strong.

Lazy day, Sunday afternoon,
Like to get your feet up, watch T.V.
Sunday roast is something good to eat,
Now it's almost over till week.

That's how your life goes by
Until the day you die.

"Lean On Me (Tonight)"

"Lean On Me (Tonight)"



Lean on me
I'll be there
Whenever you need someone
To share in every prayer
In every dream
You've left somewhere
'Till tomorrow
Will be just like it was when we were young
'Cos tonight
I'm gonna take you where
I've never taken you before

Lean on me
I'm every where
Where ever you look I'll be
Forever yours
The northern lights
The southern cross
I'll give to you
'Till tomorrow
Will be just like it was when we were young
'Cos tonight
I'm gonna take you where
I've never taken you before

If you're lonely
You know where you can find me
You know there's no escape when you are on your own
And if you're worried
And you can see your world slip through your fingers
I'll reach out for you in my heart
There's no more dancing in the dark

You're not alone
Tomorrow
Will be just like it was when we were young
'Cos tonight
I'm gonna take you where
I've never taken you before

Will be just like it was when we were young
Tonight I'm gonna take you where
I've never taken you before
Will be just like it was when we were young

"Leave This Man Alone"

"Leave This Man Alone"



Ah, leave this man alone, Ah, leave this man alone

Young girls with long faces come to me at night and stay the night
Why am I so lonely?
Tell me is it right? (Is it right?)
Leave them, leave them, leave them, leave those things alone
Leave them, leave them, leave them, leave those things alone

Someone said I loved you, but I can't think where (I can't think where)
You know so much about me
So don't stand and stare, stand and stare
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave my mind alone
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave this man alone

Ah, ah, leave this man alone
Ah, ah, leave this

Ah, ah, leave this man alone
Ah, ah, leave this

Someone said I loved you, but I can't think where (I can't think where)
You know so much about me
So don't stand and stare, stand and stare
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave my mind alone
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave this man alone

Ah, ah, leave this man alone
Ah, ah, leave this man alone
Ahhhh

"Legend Of A Mind"

"Legend Of A Mind"



Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
He'll fly his astral plane,
Takes you trips around the bay,
Brings you back the same day,
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.

Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
He'll fly his astral plane,
Takes you trips around the bay,
Brings you back the same day,
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.

Along the coast you'll hear them boast
About a light they say that shines so clear.
So raise your glass, we'll drink a toast
To the little man who sells you thrills along the pier.

He'll take you up, he'll bring you down,
He'll plant your feet back firmly on the ground.
He flies so high, he swoops so low,
He knows exactly which way he's gonna go.
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.

He'll take you up, he'll bring you down,
He'll plant your feet back on the ground.
He'll fly so high, he'll swoop so low.
Timothy Leary.

He'll fly his astral plane.
He'll take you trips around the bay.
He'll bring you back the same day.
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.
Timothy Leary.

"Let Me Go"

"Let Me Go"



When I telephone you
Don't make out you're not at home;
It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call.
When I hold you near,
When I call you ‘dear',
You never seem to want to know me at all.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

I can't stand all this heartache

'Cause I love you so,
I find it hard to go,
Well, I can see a change in your ways

'Cause when I'm turning to
How much I think of you
You always look away in a gaze.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

I can't stand all this heartache

Like we lost
Every little of love you had for me, baby,
I'm doing, let me go (not sure of this line)
Let me go, let me go, this way,

When I telephone you
Don't make out you're not at home;
It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call.

And when I hold you near,
When I call you ‘dear',
You never seem to want to know me at all.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

And I can't stand all this heartache

You'd better let me go, baby,
Oh you'd better let me go, baby,
Oh yeah, let me go.

"Long Summer Days"

"Long Summer Days"



Long summer days, I keep thinking
What to do with my time
So many ways, I keep sinking
What's to do with my time

Take me back, I don't mind
(Take me back) I've got time
(Take me back) and let me start again

Time hurries by, I keep thinking
What's to do in our time
Don't let it by, just keep thinking
What's to do in our time

Take me back, I don't mind
(Take me back) I've got time
(Take me back) and let me start again

Utopia's within our sight (Utopia)
Don't kick it or we lose it
Though you think the world's too fast
It's that way 'cause we choose it
Automation is the cry (Automation)
Our minds have been forgotten
To understand me, you must try
My thoughts are turning rotten

Oh, please, please
Don't mess it up now for me
Please, please
Don't sit there and condemn me
Please, please, please

Long summer days, I keep thinking
What's to do with my time
So many ways, I keep sinking
What's to do with my time

Take me back, I don't mind
(Take me back) I've got time
(Take me back) and let me start again

Ah, ah, ah, ah long summer days

"Lost In A Lost World"

"Lost In A Lost World"



I woke today, I was crying
Lost in a lost world
So many people are dying
Lost in a lost world
Some of them are living an illusion
Bounded by the darkness of their minds
In their eyes it's nation, against nation, against nation
With racial pride
Sounds...
Thinking only of themselves
They shun the light
(shun the light)
They think they're right
(think they're right)
Living in their empty shells

Oh, can you see their bodies thrashing
(so many people, so many people)
Crashing down around their feet
Angry people in the street
Telling them they've had their fill
Of politics, people who kill

Grow... the seed of evolution
(so many people, so many people)
Revolution everyone
It's just another form of gun
To do again what they have done
Let all our brothers come and get some
(so many people, so many people)

Everywhere you go you see them searching
Everywhere you turn you feel the pain
Everyone is looking for the answers
Well look again, come on my friend
Love will find us in the end
Come on my friend
(on my friend)
We've got to bend
(got to bend)
Down on our knees and say a prayer

Oh, can you see the world is pining
(so many people, so many people)
Pining for someone who really cares enough to share his love
With all of us so we can be
An ever loving family
Have we forgotten who loves who
(so many people, so many people)
Children from a family tree
That's longer than a centipede
Started long ago when you and I
Where only love....
(so many people, so many people)

I woke today, I was crying
Lost in a lost world
So many people are dying
Lost in a lost world
So many people, so many people
People lost in a lost world
So many people, so many people
People lost in a lost world

"Love And Beauty"

"Love And Beauty"



I look around at other people
I brush their shoulders at the corner of the street
But all they notice is their feet
It wasn't meant this way
Their minds have gone astray

If they could lift their eyes they'd see
There's people smiling just like me and I'll agree
It's not their fault because it's raining
It's all work and no play, it's just another day

(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
Should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend

I wish that I could change the world
For every boy there'd be a girl for him to know
And maybe people would look up
Then they might realize they're not the only ones alive

(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
Should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend

(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)

"Love Don't Come Easy"

"Love Don't Come Easy"



The way you looked at me tonight
I've never seen that look
In your eyes before
But then again
I don't think I've ever looked
Had the time to spare
The will to share with you

What have I missed
What have I done
I'm gonna turn back the tide
Like it's just begun
Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better

After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me

The way you looked into my eyes
I could see the hurt
I saw thro' your disguise
Just give me time
I can make it up to you
Let me heal the pain
I'm scared of losing you

What have I missed
Where have I gone wrong
If I could turn back the time
So we've just begun

Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better

After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
For me

What have I missed
What have I done
I'm gonna turn back the tide
So we've just begun

Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better

After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
Love don't come easy
After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
Love don't come easy

"Love Is On The Run"

"Love Is On The Run"



Just because it's raining here
It doesn't mean the sun isn't shining

Somewhere else for someone
You have loved
But who's not near you anymore

When your love is on the run
Don't fall apart at what's begun
It's just the healing process
Of your heart

When your dream has lost it's cause
Don't waste your time in closing doors
You'll be the last to know
When love has gone

Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me

Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me

Couldn't find the words to say I love you
Couldn't fight the hurt of holding on
Couldn't hope
Couldn't dream
Couldn't see tomorrow
With out your love
I can't go on

Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me

When your love is on the run
Don't fall apart at what's begun
It's just the healing process
Of your heart

When your dream has lost it's cause
Don't waste your time in closing doors
You'll be the last to know
When love has gone

Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me
