Fleetwood Mac Greatest Hits Lyrics
1.Rhiannon

Lyrics:Stevie Nicks
Music:Stevie Nicks

Rhiannon rings like a bell thru the night
and wouldn't you love to love her?
Takes to the sky like a bird in flight
and who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman
taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven
Will you ever win

She is like a cat in the dark
and then she is the darkness
When the sky is starless

All your life you've never seen a woman
taken by the sky
Would you stay if she promised you heaven
Would you even try....would you even try

Rhiannon.....
Rhiannon.....
Rhiannon.....
Rhiannon.....

She rings like a bell thru the night
-Wouldn't you love to love her?
Takes to the sky like a bird in flight
and who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman
taken by the sky
Would you stay if she promised you heaven
-Would you even try.......Would you even try?

Rhiannon.....
Rhiannon.....
Rhiannon.....

Taken by.....taken by the sky
Taken by.....taken by the sky
Taken by.....taken by the sky
Oh no!

(Screamin' guitar solo)

Dreams unwind and love's a state of mind....
Dreams unwind and love's a state of mind....
Oh don't you know that your dreams unwind and love's so hard to
find....
I know.....Dreams unwind and love's a state of mind.....I
know.....
Dreams unwind and love's a state of mind.....
Dreams unwind and love is hard to find.....
It's all the same...it's all a game..it's all insane...
Rhiannnon....
It's all the same....al the same.....it's all
insane....Rhiannon....
Oh..she'll take you to the treasure.....dreamer....
Go on....try to leave her.....dreamer....silly
dreamer...treasure...oh...
She'll take you to the treasure....dreamer....
Oh........silly dreamer


2.Don't Stop

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie
Music:Christine Mcvie

If you wake up and don't want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
You'll see things in a different way.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that you've done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you don't believe that it's true,
I never meant any harm to you.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Don't you look back,
Don't you look back.


3.Go Your Own Way

Lyrics:Lindsey Buckingham
Music:Lindsey Buckingham

Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel

If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you wanna do

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
go your own way


4.Hold Me

Written:Christine Mcvie/Robbie Patton

can you understand me
baby don't you hand me a line
although it doesn't matter
you and me got plenty of time

there's nobody in the future
so baby let me hand you my love
oh, there's no step for you to dance to
so slip your hand inside of my glove

CHORUS:
hold me....hold me....hold me
hold me....hold me....hold me

i don't want no damage
but how'm i gonna manage with you
you hold the percentage
but i'm the fool payin' the dues

i'm just around the corner
if you got a minute to spare
i'll be waitin' for ya'
if you ever want to be there

(repeat chorus)


5.Everywhere

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie
Music:Christine Mcvie

Can you hear me calling
Out your name
You know that I'm falling
And I don't know what to say

I'll speak a little louder
I'll even shout
You know that I'm pround
And I can't get the words out

Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
(Wanna be with you everywhere)

Something's happening
Happening to me
My friends say I'm acting peculiarly

C'mon baby
We better make a start
You better make it soon
Before you break my heart

Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
(Wanna be with you everywhere)

Can you hear me calling
Out your name
You know that I'm falling
And I don't know what to say

Come along baby
We better make a start
You better make it soon
Before you break my heart

Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere
(Wanna be with you everywhere)


6.Gypsy

Lyrics:Stevie Nicks
Music:Stevie Nicks

so i'm back to the velvet underground
back to the floor that i love
to a room with some lace and peper flowers
back to the gypsy...that i was...to the gypsy...that i was...

and it all comes down to you
well you know that it does, well...
lightning strikes...maybe once...maybe twice...
oh....and it lights up the night....
and you see your gypsy.......
you see your gypsy....

to the gypsy......
that remains.....
she faces freedom......
with a little fear.....
well i have no fear....
i have only love.....
and if i was a child....
and the child was enough.....
enough for me to love....
enough to love......

she is dancing away from you now
she was just a wish
she was just....a wish
and her memory is all that is left for you now
you see your gypsy.....
you see your gypsy.....

lightning strikes...
maybe once...maybe twice....
and it all comes down to you
oooooo......oh......well it all comes down to you....
lightning strikes...
maybe once....maybe twice....
oh.............
i still see your bright eyes......bright eyes...
and i've always loved you....
and it all comes down to you
it all comes down to you.....


7.You Make Loving Fun

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie
Music:Christine Mcvie

Sweet wonderful you,
You make me happy with the things you do,
Oh, can it be so,
This feeling follows me wherever I go.

I never did believe in miracles,
But I've a feeling it's time to try.
I never did believe in the ways of magic,
But I'm beginning to wonder why.

Don't, don't break the spell,
It would be different and you know it will,
You, you make loving fun,
And I don't have to tell you you're the only one.

You make loving fun.
You make loving fun.


8.As Long As You Follow

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie/Quintela
Music:Christine Mcvie/Quintela

I've been searching
For a pot of gold
Like the kind you find
At the end of the rainbow

I've been dreaming
Thought it was in vain
Ah, but now you're here
Can't believe that you're back again

Now I know I can't lose
As long as you follow
I'm gonna win
I'm gonna beg, steal, or borrow
As long as you follow

I've been wandering
Gone away too far
But the road was rough
To get back where you are

And the sun went down
It never seemed to rise
Ah, but now you're here
With the light shining in your eyes

Now I know I can't lose
As long as you follow
I'm gonna win
I'm gonna beg, steal, or borrow
Yes, I can live today
If you give me tomorrow
As long as you follow

REPEAT


9.Dreams

Lyrics:Stevie Nicks
Music:Stevie Nicks

Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat .. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost ...
And what you had ...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say .. Women ... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me
Who wants to wrap around your dreams and ...
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness ...
Like a heartbeat ... drives you mad ...
In the stillness of remembering what you had ...
And what you lost ...
And what you had ...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say .. Women ... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know


10.Say You Love Me

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie
Music:Christine Mcvie

have mercy baby, on a poor girl like me
you know i'm fallin', fallin', fallin' at your feet
i'm tingling right from my head to my toes
so help me, help me, help me make the feeling grow

CHORUS:
'cause when the loving starts and the lights go down
and there's not another living soul around
you can rule me until the sun comes up
and you say that you love me

have pity baby, just when i thought it was over
now you got me runnin', runnin', runnin' for cover
i'm begging you for a little sympathy
'cause if you use me again it'll be the end of me

(repeat chorus)

baby, baby, hope you're gonna stay away
'cause i'm getting weaker, weaker everyday
i guess i'm not as strong as i used to be
and if you use me again it'll be the end of me

(repeat chorus)

fallin', fallin', fallin........

(repeat)


11.Tusk

Lyrics:Lindsey Buckingham
Music:Lindsey Buckingham

Why don't you ask him if he's going to stay?
Why don't you ask him if he's going away?
Why don't you tell me what's going on?
Why don't you tell me who's on the phone?
Why don't you ask him what's going on?
Why don't you ask him who's the latest on his throne?

Don't say that you love me!
Just tell me that you want me!

Tusk! Tusk! Tusk! Tusk!
Tusk! Tusk! Tusk! Tusk!
Tusk! Tusk! Tusk! Tusk!
Tusk! Tusk! Tusk! Tusk!
Tusk!


12.Little Lies

Lyrics:Quintela/Eddy
Music:Mcvie/Christine

If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes

But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to belive in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies

Although I'm not making plans
I hope that you understand there's a reason why
Close your, close your, close your eyes

No more broken hearts
We're better off apart let's give it a try
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies

If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes

But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to belive in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me, tell me lies)


13.Sara

Lyrics:Stevie Nicks
Music:Stevie Nicks

Wait a minute baby...
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told be about the fire

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

And he was just like a great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match, he was singing
And undoing the laces
Undoing the laces

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

Hold on
The night is coming and the starling flew for days
I'd stay home at night all the time
I'd go anywhere, anywhere
Ask me and I'm there because I care

Sara, you're the poet in my heart
Never change, never stop
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
When you build your house
I'll come by

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

All I ever wanted
Was to know that you were dreaming
(There's a heartbeat
And it never really died)


14.Big Love

Lyrics:Lindsey Buckingham
Music:Lindsey Buckingham

Looking out for love
In the night so still
Oh I'll build you a kingdom
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
Big, big love

You said that you love me
And that you always will
Oh you begged me to keep you
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
Big, big love

I wake up alone
With it all
I wake up
But only to fall

Looking out for love
Big, big love
Just looking out for love
Big, big love


15.Over My Head

Lyrics:Christine Mcvie
Music:Christine Mcvie

you can take me to paradise
and then again you can be cold as ice
i'm over my head
but it sure feels nice

you can take me anytime you like
i'll be around if you think you might
love me baby
and hold me tight

your mood is like a circus wheel
you're changin' all the time
sometimes i can't help but feel
that i'm wastin' all of my time....

think i'm lookin' on the dark side
but everyday you hurt my pride
i'm over my head
but it sure feels nice
i'm over my head
but it sure feels nice


16.No Questions Asked

Lyrics:Stevie Nicks
Music:Stevie Nicks

When I see him, I feel him
There's an intenseness
In him, in his eyes
He wants me to be with him
He wants me with him now

She just seems to be missing
How could that happen anyhow?

So how can you say
Well, I don't know what love is
You haven't and you have no time for it
You feel completely indifferent
You feel pushed up against the wall
And then one day it just almost goes away
You spend lots of time alone
Sometimes you spend years
And you just miss those arms that used to go around you

Night after night,
No questions asked and
Who cares, the cold wind of it all, everytime
Well, it's hard to be civil and it's
Real hard to be nice
But you did it, my love, everytime

So how can you say, well, I can't see you
Not now, not tomorrow, not until it's right
Not until
None of us is pushed up against the wall
I don't know, the cold wind doesn't get you anymore

So today she says, 'well, I've changed my mind'
That's a woman's right, they say
Well, I'm frightened and I'm lost and I
Can't give you up, not now, I need you now
I'm broken-hearted, broke down
Like a little girl
Well, I need you now, well, I'm broken hearted
Well, I broke down, like a little girl

(I need you now no questions asked)
Well I broke down like a little girl
(I need you now no questions asked)
I broke down like a little girl
(Need you now no questions asked)
I broke down like a little girl
Well like a little girl
(Need you now no questions asked)
Like a little girl


17.Oh Diane

Written:Lindsey Buckingham/Richard Dashut

CHORUS:
'Cause love is like a grain of sand
slowly slipping through your hand

(repeat chorus)

talkin' 'bout Diane.....
oh oh, Diane.......


18.Seven Wonders

Written:Stevie Nicks/Sandy Stewart

So long ago
Certain place
Certain time
You touched my hand
All the way
All the way down to Emmiline
But if our paths never cross
Well you know I'm sorry but
If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again
The rainbow's end

So it's hard to find
Someone with that kind of intensity
You touched my hand I played it cool
And you reached out your hand for me
But if our paths never cross
Well you know I'm sorry but
If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again
The rainbow's end

So long ago
It's a certain time
It's a certain place
You touched my hand and you smiled
All the way back you held out your hand
If I hope and I pray
Ooh it might work out someday
If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again
The rainbow's end

If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again

If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again
