1.Nights On Broadway

Here we are in the room full of strangers,
Standing in the dark where your eyes couldn't see me

Well, I have to follow you
Though you didn't want me to.
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away

Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs,
Singin' them straight to the heart songs.
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town.

Now in my place
There are so many others
Standin' in the line;
How long will they stand between us?

Well, I have to follow you
Though you didn't want me to.
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away

Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs,
Singin' them straight to the heart songs.
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town.

I will wait,
even if it takes forever;
I will wait,
even if it takes a life time.
Somehow I feel inside
You never ever left my side.
Make it like it was before
Even if it takes a life time, takes a life time.

Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs,
Singin' them straight to the heart songs.
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town.


2.Jive Talkin'

It's just your jive talkin'
you're telling me lies, yeah
Jive talkin'

Jive talkin'
so misunderstood, yeah
Jive talkin'
You really no good

Oh, my child
You'll never know
Just what you mean to me
Oh, my child

You're gonna take away my energy

With all your jive talkin'
You're telling me lies, yeah
Good lovin'
Still gets in my eyes
Nobody believes what you say
It's just your jive talkin'
That gets in the way

Oh my love

Treating me so cruel
There you go
with your fancy lies
Leavin' me lookin'
like a dumbstruck fool
with all your

Jive talkin'
You're telling me lies, yeah
Jive talkin'
You wear a disguise
Jive talkin'
so misunderstood, yeah
Jive talkin'

And if there's somebody
You'll love till you die

3.Wind of Change

In the streets of New York City
ev'ry man can feel the cold.
And I don't want no pity,
but I want my story told.

When the lights shine down on me,
they shine on the little boy.
Is this way to make him pay;
be'ng born in a world of joy.

But like me
he don't know where he'll go wrong;
he won't cry so many tears
till he finds out why he don't belong like me.

there's no room for us out there;
you can lose your hope and pride.
When it comes to broken dreams
you'll get your share.
Sometime a man breaks down,
and the good thing he is looking for
are crushed into the ground.

Get on up, look around;
can't you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air;
can't you see the wind of change;

Don't you understand what I'm sayin',
we need a god down there.
A man to lead us children,
take us from the valley of fear.

Make the lights shine down on us,
show us the road to go.
Help us survive, make us arrive,
teach us what we need to know.

But like me
he don't know where he'll go wrong;
he won't cry so many tears
till he finds out why he don't belong like me.

there's no room for us out there;
you can lose your hope and pride.
When it comes to broken dreams
you'll get your share.
Sometime a man breaks down,
and the good thing he is looking for
are crushed into the ground.

Get on up, look around;
can't you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air;
can't you see the wind of change;

Get on up ...


4.Songbird

Go on with your song, bird -- you can't go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Though your wings are broken the sky is so wide open
And the wind is waiting for you like an open door

Though you go so far away, your voice will still be heard so
well
You'll never really ever know how beautiful you are
When the moon is on the rise I'll try to make my songbird fly
I wonder if he ever will -- and if he really did, how far

Go on with your song, bird -- you can't go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Though your wings are broken the sky is so wide open
And the wind is waiting for you like an open door

Though you go so far away, your voice will still be heard so
well
You'll never really ever know how beautiful you are
When the moon is on the rise I'll try to make my songbird fly
I wonder if he ever will -- and if he really did, how far

Go on with your song, bird -- you can't go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, through the open door

Go on with your song, bird -- you can't go wrong my bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before

Like you did before


5.Fanny(Be Tender With My Love)

First I rise, then I fall
Seems like you don't want the love
Of this man at all
And it's sure been a lonely time
Right up to the time I met you
So if you take a love like mine

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to hurt me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
'Cause it's all that I've got
And my love won't desert me

So you say to yourself, boy,
You're out of your brain;
Do you think I'm gonna stand here
All night in the rain?
And it's the start of a love affair
The moment when I first met you
And if you want I'll take you there;

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to break me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
'Cause it's all that I've got
And my love won't forsake me.

With my love,
Our love will seal it together.
Oh, with our love,
You made a promise
You'll always love me forever.

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to break me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
'Cause it's all that I've got
And my love won't forsake me.


6.All This Making Love

About an hour or more, when I go upstairs, you can read between
the lines
I can make it to the top, but then I gotta stop
But I'm all right, I'm really fine
It's just the wine and all this making love

In a day or so, it'll really show, gonna wear me to the ground
It's just the way it goes, she keeps me on my toes
But I'm all right, and should I mind
It's just the wine and all this making love

And I can't keep still, gonna make a will, 'cause I'm losing all
my hair
I try to make it seem it isn't just a dream
And I'm all right, I'm almost there
It isn't fair to wake up all this making love

I get pleasure and pain, it's a gravy train, it's a wonderland,
it's a ride
And the rumor is I'm told, she's really got a hold
And I'm all right, I'm really fine
It's just the wine and all this making love

She'll be making me strung by the tip of my tongue like a tiger
in a cage
She's got me up a wall, I'm slowing to a crawl
But I'm all right, I'm really fine
It's just the wine and all this making love.

Too much too much too much too much...


7.Country Lanes

So warm is my morning sun, red is my rainbow
Soft is the cool summer breeze when I saw your face
I saw the light in your eyes so dark and demanding
Like a light in the storm

Whenever I cry my friend
You're always away and so I pretend
If I could live the dreams that I see
Long live my love

Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love for you

My life has meaning now, I am a window
And all things seem clear to me now
Like a light in the storm

Whenever I cry my friend
You're always away and so I pretend
If I could live the dreams that I see
Long live my love

Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love

Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love for you


8.Come On Over

If my life gets like a jig saw
with the pieces out of place,
come on over,
put a smile back on my face.

And if all my bad days came at once
you would know just what to do.
Come on over;
baby, you will see me through.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Bring your love around;
you can dry away my tears.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Lay your body down;
you know I will be here.
So bring your love around.

When I can not see in front of me
you would know my darkest day,
come on over;
you can take it all away.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Bring your love around;
you can dry away my tears.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Lay your body down;
you know I will be here.
So bring your love around.

Come on over here.


9.Edge of the Universe

Just my dog and I
at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn't wanna bring her
and I know it'll make her worse.

Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there.
And they call me Shenandora in the air.

Well, I'm ten feet tall,
but I'm only three feet wide.
And I live inside an ocean that flows
on the other side.

If I came back down tomorrow,
would it all be far too soon?
And it looks like it's gonna be a lovely afternoon.

I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on prayin'.
I couldn't stop to turn around;
well, here I am and here I'm stayin'.

It's been my longest journey
and I've come through the black of night.
I was tired and hungry
when I saw your distant light.

Well, I know this may sound crazy,
but I'm sure I got here first.
I'm just me, Shenandora,
at the edge of the universe.

I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on prayin'.
I couldn't stop to turn around;
well, here I am and here I'm stayin'.

Just my dog and I
at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn't wanna bring her
and I know it'll make her worse.

Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there.
And they call me Shenandora in the air.

At the edge of the universe...


10.Baby As You Turn Away

Here am I one sad and lonely guy,
one shadow of the man I used to be.

Now it's past, the love I thought would last;
you thought I had you chained,
and now you're free.

I know it's wrong but I'm still holding on,
still praying you will soon come back to me.

But then you go, you let your feelings show;
you said I gave you pain, and now I see.

But baby, as you turn away
I will always think of what we had together.

Baby, this is just your way of breaking my heart.

And it's easier to say goodbye,
making me fall, making me try, try to make
you stay as you turn away.

Now you're gone, this road I walk upon is just
another place where I can hide.

I'm still your man, there's proof of who I am;
except without your love I'm dead inside.

But baby, as you turn away
I will always think of what we had together.

Baby, this is just your way of breaking my heart.

And it's easier to say goodbye,
making me fall, watching me try, try to make
you stay as you turn away.
