SOMEWHERE Day comes up sicker than a cat Something's wrong that is that Mr. Somewhere missing somewhere never did figure just how much A boat from the river takes you out 'cross the other side of town, to get out, to get out You take the tide, any tide, any tide like there isn't gonna be any tide Mr. Somewhere missing somewhere never did figure just how much Missing somewhere never did figure just how much A world like tomorrow wears things out It's hard enough to get what's yours for now And the hardest words are spoken softly Softly look, no hands upon Mr. Somewhere missing somewhere never did figure just how much Missing somewhere never did figure just how much Now the milkman beats you to the door That was once a home, home no more Mr. Somewhere, missing somewhere couldn't get the calendar to stop Missing somewhere, never did figure just how much Missing somewhere, never will admit just how much @SONG: WITH TOMORROW It was more like a dream than reality I must have thought it was a dream while you were here with me When you were near I didn't think you would leave When you were gone it was too much to believe So with tomorrow, I will borrow Another moment of joy and sorrow And another dream, and another With tomorrow So with the sun there won't be time just to look behind There will be reasons not exclusions for my place of mind There was so much I was told, it was not real So many things that I could not taste, but I could feel So with tomorrow, I will borrow Another moment of joy and sorrow In another dream, and another With tomorrow @SONG: YOU AND YOUR SISTER You say my love for you's not real But you don't know how real it feels All I want to do is to spend some time with you So I can hold you, hold you Your sister says that I'm no good I'd reassure her if I could All I want to do is to spend some time with you So I can hold you, hold you Friends fail every day I want to hear you say Your love won't be leaving Your eyes aren't deceiving Fears will soon fade away Smile now, don't be afraid All I want to do is to spend some time with you So I can hold you, hold you So let me whisper in your ear Don't you worry they can't hear All I want to do is to spend some time with you So I can hold you, hold you @SONG: NATURE'S WAY It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong It's nature's way of telling you in a song It's nature's way of receiving you It's nature's way of retrieving you It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong It's nature's way of telling you through the breeze It's nature's way of telling you dying trees It's nature's way of receiving you It's nature's way of retrieving you It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong It's nature's way It's nature's way It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong It's nature's way of telling you in a song [oh-oh-woah] It's nature's way of receiving you It's nature's way of retrieving you It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong @SONG: I COME AND STAND AT EVERY DOOR I come and stand at every door but no-one hears my silent prayer I knock and yet remain unseen for I am dead, for I am dead I'm only seven although I've died in Hiroshima long ago I'm seven now as I was then when children die they do not grow My hair was scorched by swirling flame my eyes grew dim, my eyes grew blind Death came and turned my bones to dust and that was scattered by the wind I need no fruit, I need no rice I need no sweet, nor even bread I ask for nothing for myself for I am dead, for I am dead All that I ask is that for peace you fight today, you fight today so that the children of this world may live and grow, and laugh and play @SONG: SEVERAL TIMES Several times I saw you in your eyes several times I saw you wishing to stop this Ways much longer than that we could see before we started to walk well actually we tried to go forward Several times I saw you in your eyes several times I saw you wishing to stop this @SONG: LATE NIGHT When I woke up today And you weren't there to play Then I wanted to be with you When you showed me your eyes Whispered love at the skies Then I wanted to stay with you Inside me I feel, alone and unreal And the way you kiss will always be A very special thing to me When I lay still at night Seeing stars high and light Then I wanted to be with you When the rooftops shone dark All alone saw a spark Spark of love just to stay with you Inside me I feel, alone and unreal And the way you kiss will always be A very special thing to me If I mention your name Turn around on a chain Then the sky opens up for you When we grew very tall When I saw you so small Then I wanted to stay with you Inside me I feel, alone and unreal And the way you kiss will always be A very special thing to me Inside me I feel, alone and unreal And the way you kiss will always be A very special thing to me @SONG: HELP ME LIFT YOU UP I don't know how to tell you that you're all alone do what you will do not go home you'll have to be with your won kind I'll have to stay with my own kind Help me lift you up Help me lift you up Sorry if I can't stop pretending so sorry if I don't let you go like this, but not like this is ending I think you know, I think you know Help me lift you up Help me lift you up I have a dream - it's very clear you're all around, but never near Help me lift you up Help me lift you up @SONG: CAROLYN'S SONG I heard that you said that you feel all alone Do you think that they could understand When they told you go ahead Is it in your head are you upside down You drive around feeling sad And I wish you everything I ever said Do you understand, are you feeling dead? Are you lost, are you sad? Did I leave you alone? Do you think that I don't understand? What it's like to feel all alone ? @SONG: 'TIL I GAIN CONTROL Just like the sun over the mountain top You know I'll always come again You know I love to spend my morning times Like sunlight dancing on your skin What you see is what I've been There is nothing I could hide from you You see me better than I can Out on the roads that lies before me now There are some turns where I will spin I only hope that you can hold me now 'til I can gain control again Like a lighthouse you must stand alone And mark a sailor's journey's end Nno matter what seas I have been sailing on I'll always row this way again Out on the roads that lie before me now There are some turns where I will spin I only hope that you can hold me now 'til I can gain control again I only hope that you can hold me now 'til I can gain control again @SONG: I AM THE COSMOS Every night I tell myself "I am the cosmos I am the wind" But that don't bring you back again Just when I was starting to feel okay You're on the phone I never wanna be alone Never wanna be alone I hate to have to take you home Want you too much to say no, no Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Never wanna be alone I hate to have to take you home Want you too bad to say no, no Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah My feelings always happening something organized I can't confide Don't know what's going on inside So every night I tell myself "I am the cosmos I am the wind" But that don't bring you back again I'd really like to see you again I really want to see you again I'd really like to see you again [that don't bring you back again] I really want to see you again I'd really like to see you again I really want to see you again I'd really like to see you again [that don't bring you back again] I'd really like to see you again I know I'd like to see you again I never want to see you again @SONG: (NOTHING but) BLOOD should have been enough to change your mind could have been enough to take your breath away
