Red Octopus

Jefferson Starship Red Octopus Lyrics
1.Ai Garimas?(There Is Love)

Ai child you are timeless and i love you
Child that i see
And i see you tryin' to lean towards kindness
Now that's what i like to see.

That's what i like to see
I want to see your love
And i want to feel
I want to feel your love.

Ai garimas? sometimes loving in the rain
Some feel like steel, some taste like candy
Ai garimas? the same in any language
The same in any name
Call it what you feel
Call it whatever's handy
We don't have to know the name
We don't have to have the same name
We don't have to have any name at all
All 'cause you gave me your love
And now i know just exactly who to call.

That's what i like to see
I like to see your love
And i want to feel
I want to feel your love.

We don't have to know the name
We don't have to have the same name
We don't have to have any name at all
Cause you gave me your love
And now i know just exactly who to call.


2.Fast Buck Freddie

He said hold a dollar bill up to the mirror
And i'll show you something funny
It's only a fast buck, but
It's so hard to make that kind of money.

Now it's hard to get serious when the joker
Is laughing
And by now the joker is wild
It's hard to keep laughing when a rich man's
Reflection
Looks like a gun that's gonna smile
What's going on, i ask you
What's going on, can you see?
What's going on, i ask you and
Who's coming on, is it you or me?

Coming on while it's still soft and warm
Burn it dry before the fiery storm
Sing it now while you still have a song
Grab on now while you're still feeling strong.

How long, how long would you like it
How long, how long will it be
How long, how long can we take it?
How long before we take it back, you and me
Think fast.

I was thinking that i should be singing along
Think fast i think he's coming thru
Think fast, he thinks he's running you
I was thinking that i should be singing along
Think fast, he thinks he's coming in
Think fast, i think he's wearing thin
I was thinking that i should be singing along
Think fast, he's taking all your time
Think fast, you know he's out of line
But who cares, you know you can, you will, you
Know you can.

Sing it now while you still
Sing it now while you still
Sing it now while you still have a song.

4.I Want To See Another World

I want to see another world
For me and my child
My old lady, too
Maybe you
If we can
If we get to
I want to see another world
I want to see another world.

I think you might see a great ship up in the sky
Like an eagle, like a stallion
Might be a burning silver wheel
Let you know you can fly
Look up in the sky
Look up thru the darkness
I think it might be love.

I want to see another world
For me and my child
My old lady, too
Maybe you
If we can
If we get to
I want to see another world
I want to see another world
I want to see another world

When all the sky is darkness
When all the ground you know is gone
How the solar wind she blows
Snowy silver dragon sings the songs
Flying straight up to the sky
Great singing engines sigh and
Drive this metal fragment into time.

Let's try to get along with each other
Sister and brother
Father and mother
Everyone's a lover.

I want to see another world...

Let's try to get along with each other
Sister and brother
Father and mother
Everyone's a lover.

Get along with each other
Sister and brother...


5.Miracles

If only you believe like i believe, baby
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby
So would i
If only you believe like i believe, baby
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby
So would i.

I might have to move heaven and earth to prove
It to you, baby
So we're makin' love and you feel the power
And i feel the power
Then there's really nothing that we can't do
If we wanted to, baby
We could exist on the stars
It'd be so easy
All we gotta do
Is get a little faith in you
Oh, i've been (to) so many places
I've seen some things
I know, love is the answer
Keeps holding this world together
Ain't nothing better
Ain't nothing better
And all the answers to our prayers
Hell , it's the same everywheres, baby
Nothing ever breaks up the heart
Only tears give you away
Then you're right where i found ya
With my arms around ya
Oh baby, baby, baby, love is a magic word, yeah
Few ever find in a lifetime
But from that very first look in your eyes
I knew you and i had but one heart
Only our bodies were apart
That was so easy, so easy
I had a taste of the real world
When i went down on you, girl.

If only you believe like i believe, baby
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby
So would i
If only you believe like i believe, baby
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby
So would i.

I can hear windmills and rainbows
Whenever you're talkin' to me
I feel like swirling and dancin'
Whenever you're walking with me
You ripple like a river when i touch you
When i pluck your body like a string
When i start dancin' inside ya
Oh baby, you make me wanna sing
Yeah, baby, baby, baby, baby
Oh yeah, all right
Baby, we're sure doin' it tonight
Everytime you come by, let me try
Pretty, please sugar on it
That's how i like it
I can't even believe it, with you
It's like having every dream i ever wanted
Come true
I picked up your vibes
You know it opened my eyes
But i'm still dreamin' yeah
And you're right where i found ya
With my arms around ya.

Refrain (2x)


6.Play On Love

Now when you open your mouth, what comes out
What's the first word, what's the first line?
When you open your mouth and love comes out
Then you know, you just sang the clear line
I've heard people say it a thousand times
In a thousand different ways
I've heard people play it a thousand times
And they know, they know that's the only way
To play.

You got to
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love.

Now are you talking about what it is you know
Or just repeating what it was you heard
Someone told you just exactly what to say
And you know, you know that's only one set
Of words
You got to play on love.

I've heard people say it a thousand times
In a thousand different ways
I've heard people play it a thousand times
And they know that's the only way to play
You been a reading it without living it
Now that's the golden prison we can always find
Living in stories and living in books or
We can live and leave all the stories behind.

It's up to you and it's up to me
Come down yelling timber through the
Burning trees
Who's been telling you about perfection
And how did he get in here, that's the question.

He must've
Played on love
Played on love
Played on love
Played on love.

I've heard people say it a thousand times....

You got to
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love.

Reading it without living it...

You got to
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love
Play on love.

8.Sweeter Than Honey

Baby, if i had your lovin', i'd have everything
I needed
If anybody told me i wouldn' a believed that i'd be
Head over heels in love with you, baby
Now all the unfinished dreams on the
Unmade beds
Are ungathered blackberries in my head
Baby, i know really am in love with you.

Cause you're sweeter than honey, baby
Warm as a piece of the sun and
Darker than nite to a blind man
Softer than starlite shinin'.

So let's get together and make love
Ain't nothing else to be prouder of
I need you bad, baby, you're the best thing i ever had
If you can do it, you can get it
You can bet, i'm gonna get your everlastin' love
Gotta be more where that came from, baby
Gotta get me some/ gotta get me some
Cause it's sweeter than honey, baby
Warm as a piece of the sun
Darker than nite to a blind man
Softer than starlite shinin'.

Sweeter honey
Sweeter honey
Warm as the sun
Warm as the sun
Darker than nite
Darker than nite
Softer than star
Softer than star

Baby, i love you
I can't dance you outta my mind
I hear shoutin' in my heart
When you're in these arms of mine
When you satisfy my days and nites
Gratify my appetites
I never felt so good
Must be your lovin', baby
Must be your lovin'.

Cause it's sweeter than honey, baby
Warm as a piece of the sun and
Darker than nite to a blind man
Softer than starlite shinin'.

Sweeter honey....


9.There Will Be Love

Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Whatever i see, i will see you in it
Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Even when i close my eyes
All i see is you.

Oh, oh, the sunshine of your smile
Oh, oh, the music of your voice
Oh, oh, when you lay your body by
Oh, oh, the night was made for love.

Oh, baby, the way we move in love
Oh, baby, the way we movin'
Oh, baby, the way we move in love
Oh, baby, the way we movin' now.

Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Whatever i see, i will see you in it
Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Even when i close my eyes
All i see is you.

And i could fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly.

I made an ark from the light of the stars
And i hewed two mesas of bright silver metal
That sang in the sun like a sail in the wind
And i weave my way back to you
Now i can fly.

Oh, baby, the way we move in love
Oh, baby, the way we movin'
Oh, baby, the way we move in love
Oh, baby, the way we movin' now.

Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Whatever i see, i will see you in it
Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Whatever i see, i will see you
Whatever i do, i will do you
Whatever i see, i will see you
Whatever i do, i will love you
Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Whatever i see, i will see you in it
Whatever i do, there will be love in it
Even when i close my eyes
All i see is you.


10.Tumblin'

When love comes tumblin' down
Tumblin' down to the truth
And can't fall no more
Can't fall no more - oh baby, baby, baby
Don't be blue
I'll stand by you
And we'll get that feelin'
Just like before
Only more and more and
Love'll mean something again
Oh, baby, you know it can
Be just like heaven
It was heaven before - yes, it was
Oh, if you stand by me
I'll stand by you
And the feelin' it'll get
Stronger and stronger
Won't be much longer
Cause

This time this love's gonna grow
This time you'll never go
This time i'll love you so
This time everything we ever wanted
This time our love's gonna grow
This time i'll never let go
This time i'll love you so
This time everything that we could ever feel
In lovin'
I feel it's comin'
Now i know the meanin'
I'm through with all the driftin', the dreamin'

Cause when love comes tumblin' down
Tumblin' down to the truth
It can't fall no more

Tumblin', tumblin', tumblin'/ tumblin', tumblin',
Tumblin'
Tumblin', tumblin', tumblin'/ tumblin', tumblin',
Tumblin'
Tumblin', tumblin', tumblin'
