Sunflower Morning.
(C. Horton-Jennings, M. Deacon)
Hey, in my space of time
The question in mind is
Will I want to fight another day.
Shared in one darkened room
With one lonely tune deep in my heart
For the dreams I know have strayed.
To wake up one day
Find that my eyes can't believe
All the good things around
That keep happening to me
And the world is filled with love
On a sunflower morning.
Hey, in my space of time

Will I want to fight another day.
To wake up one day
Find that my eyes can't believe
All the good things around
That keep happening to me
And the world is filled with love
On a sunflower morning.

Find that my eyes can't believe
All the good things around
That keep happening to me
And the world is filled with love
On a sunflower morning.
Angelina.
(C. Horton-Jennings)
When she gives her sign to a passerby
Has her hopes someday one will stay
And she lives alone in the old folk's home
And I guess she'll end that way
Angelina tries but she fails again.
Then she found she can
Touch the postman's hands
As the letters go through the box
To see the milkman smile
Makes it all worthwhile just sit an wait for
the knocks
Angelina tries but she fails again.
Angelina remembers the pleasant days
When she was young
But doesn't seem realized these pleasant days
are gone
'Cause each breaks up her personal life
But she breaks up her shock
And stops Angelina from seeing that
she's failing once more.
Should she feel inside that she's off to hide
In the shelter of her room
Then her cards hang on to a false someone
And hope he comes along
Angelina tries.
Angelina tries
Angelina tries but she fails again.
Skylight Man.
(C. Horton-Jennings, G. Watt-Roy)
Voices far below me seem to sound the same
Find if I go higher
I could breathe again
Freedom, freedom air
Blown into my hair.
Haven't got a face that you could recognize
If you were up here with me you would realize
Off and go somewhere
The message in the air
Tells me if you try to run with a skylight man
It could put a strain on your eyes
'Cause the stage is set for a whole life
Trying to take your line to the sky.
Someone took the sun away
And now I'm feeling so alone.
Facing one more lonely day
And I'm still on my own.
Shadows come from yesterday and hide the sun
Something's speaking memories are left unsung
Off and go somewhere
The message in the air
Tells me if you try to run with a skylight man
It could put a strain on your eyes
'Cause the stage is set for a whole life
Trying to take your line to the sky.
Day Of The Lady.
(C. Horton-Jennings, R. Saunders)
Looks at the past
And remembers the last time
The ladies were ladies and lovers were true
Looking her best in her crinoline dress
For the people who cared threw a pound
Kindly old lady she passes a lamp
When she sees her reflection of carriage in black
Then in these waltzes and riding white horses
The day of the lady was here.
Through the recalling she has longed in calling
For days of diamonds and lace
Victorian springs nights,
banquets by gas light
Now neon light shine on her face
Kindly old lady she passes a lamp
When she sees her reflection of carriage in black
Then in these waltzes and riding white horses
The day of the lady was here.
Roaming the years with occasional tears
For the happiness rust in the past
Recollections of past time connections
And memories fade away fast
Kindly old lady she passes a lamp
When she sees her reflection of carriage in black
Then in these waltzes and riding white horses
The day of the lady was here.
Kindly old lady she passes a lamp
When she sees her reflection of carriage in black
Then in these waltzes and riding white horses
The day of the lady was here
Day of the lady was here.
Real Cool World.
(G. Watt-Roy)
I took a step and I opened my eyes
Lifted my head with a look of surprise
I knew that what I first saw
Something was bound to be born.
Rah ha ha ha ha
I found myself a real cool world
Rah ha ha ha ha
So come and join me in my world.
Escape in the tune of the world's angry songs
Searching for peace and the place to belong
I knew that what I first saw
Something was bound to be born.
Rah ha ha ha ha
I found myself a real cool world
Rah ha ha ha ha
So come and join me in my world.
This is the way that the people will stay forever more
Say what you may
But you can't help but stay in a real cool world
This is the place any creed any race can breathe
the air
Somewhere to run from the sound of the gun
Now it's peaceful there.
And you will see
You'll be with me
Rah ha ha ha ha
I found myself a real cool world.
Rah ha ha ha ha
So come and join me in my world.
This is the way that the people will stay forever more
Say what you may
But you can't help but stay in a real cool world
This is the place any creed any race can breathe
the air
Somewhere to run from the sound of the gun
Now it's peaceful there.
And you will see
You'll be with me
Rah ha ha ha ha
I found myself a real cool world
Rah ha ha ha ha
So come and join me in my world.
I Fought For Love.
(C. Horton-Jennings, G. Watt-Roy)
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me.
The judge me on my back town past
You treat me like I'm second last
See the tables turning now
And I don't need you anyhow.
Follow my philosophies
I'm just a man, I want to be free
My future sell me copies of my past
I've got to make every second last.
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me.
You say you changed your point of view
Take a chance our luck will see it through
Confusion leaves you running blind
You're out of date and left behind.
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me.
I fought for love
Fought for you fought for me.
Horizons.
(The Greatest Show On Earth)
Instrumental.
Again & Again.
(G. Watt-Roy)
Memories that I should find
Breathing in softly to my mind
Gently fade away.
Wasting the days that were all spent
Catching the sun for amusement
Lotting life run by.
You thought you were a clever girl
You run around you wreck my world
Money isn't everything you can buy.
Again and again I will love you yeah
Again and again I will love you.
Times I spent asking questions
Seem to be lost in reflections
Answers never end.
You thought you were a clever girl
You run around you wreck my world
Money isn't everything you can buy.
Again and again I will love you yeah
Again and again I will love you.
You thought you were a clever girl
You run around you're wrecking my world
Money isn't everything you can buy.
Again and again I will love you yeah
Again and again I will love you.
