"Christmas Dream"

"Christmas Dream"



Feel it, can you feel it?
Somethings coming, ain't it wonderful
Like a miracle, inspiration, jubilation, celebration coming round

This is Christmas said the wise-man
Join me seeker, walk beside me
I will take you to the blind man
He will show you what was lost on Christmas day

He took me through a Christmas dream
Where everything was strange and dear
There's nothing was the way it seemed
Without explaining what it means

As men and women, sons and daughters
Wait like children for their gifts on Christmas day

Christmas dream
I saw me there
Christmas dream
I called my name in my sleep
I looked away, was only thinking of myself

Feel it, can you feel it?
If you want to it can heal you
Like a miracle, inspiration, jubilation celebration going down

This is Christmas said the wise-man
To the sailor lost on dry land
Let me take you to the harbour
Stand beside you and lead you farther on your way

They headed for a Christmas dream
The one that changed it all for me
The one that somehow made me see
That I'd become what I should be

When men and women, sons and daughters
Become children at the break of Christmas day

Christmas dream it comes to me
Christmas dream, when I'm alone
When I'm lost, it brings me home
That Christmas dream awake in me

Christmas dream
Was something that it spoke to me
It told what Christmas had to be
And when I found it I was free

Said men and women,sons and daughters
Are all forgiven when they wake on Christmas day

Christmas dream at Christmas time
Christmas dream I found my way
Came to me and now I pray
That Christmas lives forever

Christmas dream on Christmas day
Christmas dream the whole world gives
I can see because we live
It speaks to me in every way

Christmas dream it fills my mind
It makes me see I came to find
That we can be together
And not forget the Christmas dream

"Clown Town"

"Clown Town"



When a guy's been made a fool of
By a gal who only wants to play
He goes to a lonely place where lovers
Who are broken hearted stay

They call it
Clown Town, Clown Town
No joy around town and you see
That's just where I've been stayin'
Since you made a clown out of me

Baby, won't you come and get me
I can't take it here another day
It's not very hard to find
It's no more than a broken heart away

They call it
Clown Town, Clown Town
No joy around town and you see
That's just where I'll be stayin'
Baby, till you set me free

They call it
Clown Town, Clown Town
No joy around town and you see
That's just where I'll be stayin'
Baby, till you set me free

They call it
Clown Town, Clown Town
No joy around town and you see
That's just where I'll be stayin'
Baby, till you set me free
They call it
Clown Town, Clown Town,
Come and get me baby

"Coke Commercial #1"

"Coke Commercial #1"




People are lookin'
For what they ain't got
Runnin' and pushin'
For I don't know what

But I'm gonna stake out
My own piece of shade
Count all the money
I ain't ever made
No No No

I ain't got a single plan
Wind in my face
And a Coke in my hand
No No No

Happy right where I am
Yeah, I got a Coke in my hand...

"Coke Commercial #2"

"Coke Commercial #2"



Girl, you know that I love you
But, I need time to think
And you know I can't think
When you're sitting this close to me
Can't we talk about wedding bells
Some other time?
If you get any closer,
I'll go out of my mind

Sit back, have a Coke and relax
Sit back, have a Coke and relax, babe

Things go better with,
You'll go better with,
I feel better with Coca Cola, yeah

Sit back, have a Coke and relax
Sit back, baby
Sit back, have a Coke and relax
Sit back, have a Coke and relax
Sit back, have a Coke and relax

"Coldwater Morning"

"Coldwater Morning"



One, knowing I'm one, hearing of two
And like a child believing dreams
Always a dream to take you home

Day, after the day, there comes the night
There comes the knowing when you laugh
If you should laugh,
The night alone will hear
And the night don't care

Coldwater morning
Take off your nighttime shoes
Coldwater morning
I've been waiting so long for you

One, knowing I'm one, hearing of two
Hearing of things that I once had
That you once had
And when the night would come
We'd sleep like one
Coldwater morning
Take off your nighttime shoes
Coldwater morning
I've been waiting so long for you
I've been waiting so long for you....

"Comin' Apart"

"Comin' Apart"



Baby, my tears I know I can hide
But sweet, sweet baby
It's tearing me up inside

And I'm comin' apart, breakin' in pieces
Look at my world tumblin' down
Comin' apart, breakin' in pieces, baby
Since you're not around
You've won, I'm lost
Nowhere to run to

Baby please hear what I got to say
Oh sweet, sweet baby
Oh don't turn me away

Cause I'm comin' apart
Breakin' in pieces
Look at my world tumblin' down
Comin' apart, breakin' in pieces
Baby, since you're not around
You've won, I'm lost
Nowhere to run to

"Comin' Home"

"Comin' Home"




Operator, please
Just get her on the phone
She's got to know
I'm comin' home

For I've been gone
For a long, long time
But it really doesn't matter
When she's there on the line
Been on the road for a hundred days
And there's nothin' gonna stop me
'Cause I'm there on my way

And I'm comin' home, comin' home
I don't sleep good when I sleep alone
Goin' back, I'm knowin' that
You can't make love on the telephone
And I'm comin' home

Lost in time, almost lost my mind
But it really didn't matter
'Cause I knew all the time
I was headed back to my very own bed
And there was never a look behind
And I only looked ahead

'Cause I'm comin' home,
I'm comin' home
I don't sleep good when I sleep alone
Goin' back, I'm knowin' that
You can't make love on the telephone
And I'm comin' home

I'll make it through all right
Just knowin' that you're there
Baby, I concede, you're all I need
It's more than I can bare

I'm comin' home, comin' home
I don't sleep good when I sleep alone
I'm headin' back, I'm knowin' that
You can't make love on the telephone

And I'm comin' home,
Comin' home
I don't sleep good when I sleep alone
I'm headin' back, I'm knowin' that
You can't make love on the telephone
And I'm comin' home

"Common Ground"

"Common Ground"



If you love me, say you love me
These are words we find hard to share
Would you trust me?
Could I trust you?
Will you always want me there?

Or is this just some game
Called 'nothin' goes right'?
Is this just me to blame
For making these endless nights?
And who do we think we are
Some kind of cosmic shooting stars?
No, we're not
Haven't got all that time

Got to find a common ground
Not the other way around
For you and I
We need to walk on common ground
We need to make a lovin' sound
While we got time, we got to try

Were you loving? Was I caring?
These are the feelings
Too hard to measure
I'll be loving, you be caring
Will it always feel this way?
Or will we find the way
To make it alright?
Will that sun come someday
To wake up this endless night?

And who do we think we are
Some kind of cosmic shooting stars?
No we're not, haven't got all that time
Looking for a common ground
Not the other way around
For you and I

Got to find a common ground
Need to make a lovin' sound
While we got time you and I
Yeah, got to find some way

And we still have the time
To make it work right
Make that sun come to shine
And wake up this endless night
And who do we think we are
Some kind of cosmic shooting star?
No we're not, haven't got all that time

Got to find a common ground
Not the other way around
You and I
Got to walk on common ground
Got to make some lovin' sounds
We got time
To look for some common ground
Find a lovin' sound you and I

Lookin' for a common ground
Not the other way around
For you and I
Got to walk on common ground
You and I
Got to walk on common ground
Got to make a common sound

"Courtin' Disaster"

"Courtin' Disaster"



You walk by me
And my heart goes faster
Those eyes that smile, I know all the while
I'm courtin' disaster

You call my tune, I just obey it
Was long ago you loved me, I know
I once heard you say it

So I keep going on without ever knowing
All that I need to do
And I know some how,
It's the same way now for you.
And you're courtin' disaster too

I'm not an innocent man
Then you happened my way
Two paths that chanced to cross
One night on some secret highway

Still hear your words
And I believe you meant it
Your voice, that sound, the heat
What's worse, I still can remember

Can I keep going on without ever knowing
All that I need to do
And to know some how
It's the same way now for you

And we're courtin' disaster
Yeah, we're courtin' disaster

I could try to run away
But the feeling just won't set me free
If you need to find me,
You can find me here waiting
That's where I'll be

So walk on by
Temptation's growin'
Sometimes you court disaster
Just cause it keeps you going.
There's times you court disaster too
Without ever knowing

"Cracklin' Rosie"

"Cracklin' Rosie"



Aw, Cracklin' Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride
Till there ain't no more to go
Taking it slow
And Lord, don't you know
We'll have me a time with a poor man's lady

Hitchin' on a twilight train
Ain't nothing here that I care to take along
Maybe a song
To sing when I want
No need to say please to no man
For a happy tune

Oh, I love my Rosie child
You got the way to make me happy
You and me we go in style
Cracklin' Rose,
You're a store-bought woman
But you make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl,
Our song keeps runnin' on
Play it now, play it now
Play it now, my baby

Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile
Girl, if it lasts for an hour, that's all right
We got all night to set the world right
Find us a dream that don't ask no questions
Yeah

Oh, I love my Rosie child
You got the way to make me happy
You and me we go in style
Cracklin' Rose,
You're a store-bought woman
But you make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl
Our song keeps runnin' on
Play it now, play it now
Play it now, my baby

Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile
Girl, if it lasts for an hour, that's all right
We got all night
To set the world right
Find us a dream that don't ask no questions
Ba ba ba ba ba ......
