John Denver Rocky Mountain Collection Lyrics
1.Friends With You

What a friend we have in time
Gives us children, makes us wine
Tells us what to take or leave behind

And the gifts of growing old
Are the stories to be told
Of the feelings more precious than gold

Friends i will remember you, think of you
Pray for you
And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you

Babies days are never long
Mother's laugh is baby's song
Gives us all the hope to carry on
Friends i will remember you, think of you
Pray for you
And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you

Friends i will remember you,
Think of you, pray for you
And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you

Friends i will remember you,
Think of you, pray for you
And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you


2.Windsong

Words:john denver and joe henry
music:john denver and joe henry

This song appears on seven albums, and was first

Mountain collection and country
Classics albums. it has been rerecorded on the
Earth songs and the very best
Of john denver (single cd) albums, and rerecorded
Again on the love again
And a celebration of life albums.

The wind is the whisper of our mother the earth
The wind is the hand of our father the sky
The wind watches over our struggles and pleasures
The wind is the goddess who first learned to fly

The wind is the bearer of bad and good tidings
The weaver of darkness, the bringer of dawn
The wind gives the rain, then builds us a rainbow
The wind is the singer who sang the first song

The wind is a twister of anger and warning
The wind brings the fragrance of freshly mown hay
The wind is a racer, a wild stallion running
The sweet taste of love on a slow summer's day

The wind knows the songs of the cities and canyons
The thunder of mountains, the roar of the sea
The wind is the taker and giver of mornings
The wind is the symbol of all that is free

So welcome the wind and the wisdom she offers
Follow her summons when she calls again
In your heart and your spirit let the breezes
Surround you
Lift up your voice then and sing with the wind

Words:john denver
music:john denver

This song appears on nine albums, and was first released on the

greatest hits vol 3, changes, the very best of john denver
(double cd),
Ry classics, the country roads collection and the rocky mountain
collection albums. a live version also appears on the wildlife
concert and the best of john denver live albums.

He was born in the bitterroot valley in the early morning rain
Wild geese over the water headin' north and home again
Bringin' a warm wind from the south
Bringin' the first taste of the spring
His mother took him to her breast and softly she did sing

Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

His mother died that summer and he never learned to cry
He never knew his father and he never did ask why
He never knew the answers that would make an easy way
But he learned to know the wilderness and to be a man that way

His mother's brother took him in to family and his home
Gave him a hand that he could lean on and a strength to call his
own
And he learned to be a farmer and he learned to love the land
And he learned to read the seasons and he learned to make a
stand

Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

On the eve of his 21st birthday he set out on his own
He was 30 years and runnin' when he found his way back home
Ridin' a storm across the mountains and an aching in his heart
Said he came to turn the pages and to make a brand new start

Now he never told a story of the time that he was gone
Some say he was a lawyer, some say he was a john
There was somethin' in the city that he said he couldn't breathe
And there was somethin' in the country that he said he couldn't
leave

Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

Now some say he was crazy and they're glad that he is gone
But some of us miss him and we'll try to carry on
Giving a voice to the forest, giving a voice to the dawn
Giving a voice to the wilderness and the land that he lived on

Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

When you ask how i've been here without you
I like to say i've been fine and i do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if i told the truth, that's not quite true

Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

Now the face that i see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more i can see there's a danger
In becoming what i never thought i'd be

Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many remembered by few
Lookin' for something that i can believe in
Lookin' for something that i'd like to do with my life

There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me
To somethin' that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more
Than enough to just be there today

And i don't know what the future is holdin' in store
I don't know where i'm goin', i'm not sure where i've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the livin', i don't need to see the end

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many remembered by few
Lookin' for something that i can believe in
Lookin' for something that i'd like to do with my life

There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me
To somethin' that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more
Than enough to just be there today

And i don't know what the future is holdin' in store
I don't know where i'm goin', i'm not sure where i've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the livin', i don't need to see the end

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air

It's a long way home to starwood in aspen
A sweet rocky mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet rocky mountain paradise

Springtime is rollin' &round slowly
Grey skies are bringin' me down
I can't remember when i've ever been so lonely
I forgot what it's like to be home
Can't remember what it's like to be home

But i think on my lady's sweet memories
I think on my children's sweet smiles
I think on my home in starwood in aspen
All my friends and the snow covered hills
Oh, my friends are the snow covered hills

And i tell you i'm happy to be here
To share and consider this time
For i see here the shadows of changes
And a feeling of new friends to find
And i see here some new friends to find

But it's a long way from this place to denver

It's a long way home to starwood in aspen
A sweet rocky mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet rocky mountain paradise

It's funny how you sound as though you're right next door
When you're really half a world away
I just can't seem to find the words i'm looking for
To say the things that i want to say
I can't remember when i felt so close to you
It's almost more than i can bear
And though i seem half a million miles from you
You are in my heart and living there

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
It's the same old sun up in the sky
And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me
Like the breezes here in old shanghai

There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park
And lovers who walk all alone
There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark
And lovers who long for home
Oh, i couldn't leave you even if i wanted to
You're in my dreams and always near
And especially when i sing the songs i wrote for you
You are in my heart and living there

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
It's the same old sun up in the sky
And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me
Like the breezes here in old shanghai

Shanghai breezes cool and clearing evening's sweet caress
Shanghai breezes soft and gentle remind me of your tenderness

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
It's the same old sun up in the sky
And your love in my life is like heaven to me
Like the breezes here in old shanghai

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
It's the same old sun up in the sky
And your love in my life is like heaven to me
Like the breezes here in old shanghai
Just like the breezes here in old shanghai

(double cd), country classics, the country roads collection and

Of course we have our differences
You shouldn't be surprised
It's as natural as changes
In the seasons and the skies
Sometimes we grow together
Sometimes we drift apart
A wiser man than i might know
The seasons of the heart

And i'm walking here beside you
In the early evening chill
A thing we've always loved to do
I know we always will
We have so much in common
So many things we share
That i can't believe my heart
When it implies that you're not there

Love is why i came here in the first place
Love is now the reason i must go
Love is all i ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream i know

So i don't know how to tell you
It's difficult to say
I never in my wildest dreams
Imagined it this way
But sometimes i just don't know you
There's a stranger in our home
When i'm lying right beside you
Is when i'm most alone

And i think my heart is broken
There's an emptiness inside
So many things i've longed for
Have so often been denied
Still i wouldn't try to change you
There's no one that's to blame
It's just some things that mean so much
And we just don't feel the same

Love is why i came here in the first place
Love is now the reason i must go
Love is all i ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream i know
True love is still the only dream i know


10.Thirsty Boots

This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the
i want to live
Album, and has also been released on the rocky mountain
collection and the
Country roads collection albums.

You've long been on the open road
You've been sleepin' in the rain
From dirty words and muddy cells
You're clothes are soiled and stained
But the dirty words, the mud of cells
Will soon be judged insane
So only stop and rest yourself
And you'll be off again

Oh take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hard and weary
From a dusty mile
And maybe i can make you laugh
And maybe i can try
Lookin' for the evening
And the morning in your eyes

Then tell me of the ones you saw
As far as you could see
Across the plains from field to town
Marchin' to be free
And of the rusted prison gates
That tumbled by degree
Like laughing children one by one
They look like you and me

So take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hard and weary
From a dusty mile
And maybe i can make you laugh
And maybe i can try
Just lookin' for the evening
And the morning in your eyes

I know you are no stranger now
A crooked rainbow trail
From dancing cliffheads shattered sills
To slander shackled jails
Where the voices drift up from below
Its walls are being scaled
Yes, all of this, and more my friend
Your song shall not be failed

A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank god i'm a country boy

Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle

I pull out my fiddle and i rosin up the bow
The kids are asleep so i keep it kinda low

Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
Taught me how to love and how to give just a little
Thank god i'm a country boy

Blue ridge mountains
Shenandoah river -
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growin' like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place i belong
West virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gathered &round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place i belong
West virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice
In the mornin' hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And drivin' down the road i get a feelin'
That i should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place i belong
West virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home
To the place i belong
West virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, now country roads
Take me home, now country roads

It showed me how to laugh and how to cry
It introduced me to some friends of mine
And brightened up some days
It helped me make it through some lonely nights
Oh, what a friend to have on a cold and lonely night

This old guitar gave me my lovely lady
It opened up her eyes and ears to me
It brought us close together
I guess it broke her heart
It opened up the space for us to be
What a lovely place and a lovely space to be

This old guitar gave me my life my living
All the things you know i love to do
To serenade the stars that shine
From a sunny mountainside
Most of all to sing my songs for you
I love to sing my songs for you
Yes, i do, you know
I love to sing my songs for you

He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Comin' home to a place he'd never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key for every door

When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
On the road and hangin' by a song
But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care
It keeps changin' fast and it don't last for long

But the colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye
Rocky mountain high (high colorado) rocky mountain high (high
colorado)

He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say he got crazy once, and he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend but kept his memory

Now he walks in quiet solitude the forests and the streams
Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake

And the colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
You can talk to god and listen to the casual reply
Rocky mountain high (high colorado) rocky mountain high (high
colorado)

Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some
fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple
more
More people, more scars upon the land

And the colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky mountain high

It's a colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
Rocky mountain high (high colorado) rocky mountain high (high
colorado)
Rocky mountain high (high colorado) rocky mountain high do de do

So you speak to me of sadness
And the coming of the winter
Fear that is within you now
It seems to never end
And the dreams that have escaped you
And the hope that you've forgotten
You tell me that you need me now
You want to be my friend

And you wonder where we're going
Where's the rhyme and where's the reason
And it's you cannot accept
It is here we must begin
To seek the wisdom of the children
And the graceful way of flowers in the wind

For the children and the flowers
Are my sisters and my brothers
Their laughter and their loveliness
Could clear a cloudy day

Like the music of the mountains
And the colours of the rainbow
They're a promise of the future
And a blessing for today
Though the cities start to crumble
And the towers fall around us
The sun is slowly fading
And it's colder than the sea

It is written from the desert
To the mountains they shall lead us
By the hand and by the heart
They will comfort you and me
In their innocence and trusting
They will teach us to be free

For the children and the flowers
Are my sisters and my brothers
Their laughter and their loveliness
Could clear a cloudy day

And the song that i am singing
Is a prayer to non believers
Come and stand beside us
We can find a better way

I've been lately thinking
About my life's time
All the things i've done
And how it's been
And i can't help believing
In my own mind
I know i'm gonna hate to see it end

I've seen a lot of sunshine
Slept out in the rain
Spent a night or two all on my own
I've known my lady's pleasures
Had myself some friends
And spent a time or two in my own home

And i have to say it now
It's been a good life all in all
It's really fine
To have a chance to hang around
And lie there by the fire
And watch the evening tire
While all my friends and my old lady
Sit and pass the pipe around

And talk of poems and prayers and promises
And things that we believe in
How sweet it is to love someone
How right it is to care
How long it's been since yesterday
And what about tomorrow
And what about our dreams
And all the memories we share

The days they pass so quickly now
Nights are seldom long
And time around me whispers when it's cold
The changes somehow frighten me
Still i have to smile
It turns me on to think of growing old
For though my life's been good to me
There's still so much to do
So many things my mind has never known
I'd like to raise a family
I'd like to sail away
And dance across the mountains on the moon

I have to say it now
It's been a good life all in all
It's really fine
To have the chance to hang around
And lie there by the fire
And watch the evening tire
While all my friends and my old lady
Sit and pass the pipe around

And talk of poems and prayers and promises
And things that we believe in
How sweet it is to love someone
How right it is to care
How long it's been since yesterday
What about tomorrow
What about our dreams
And all the memories we share


17.Perhaps Love

Words:john denver
music:john denver

perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer ( you wrote close)
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don't know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain (you wrote - change)
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If i should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone
Lady, you've been dreaming, i'm as close as i can be
I swear to you our time has just begun

Close your eyes and rest your weary mind
I promise i will stay right here beside you
Today our lives were joined, became entwined
I wish you could know how much i love you

Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way i do
Are there meanings that you've never seen before
Lady, my sweet lady, i just can't believe it's true
And it's like i've never ever loved before

Close your eyes and rest your weary mind
I promise i will stay right here beside you
Today our lives were joined, became entwined
I wish you could know how much i love you

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone
Lady, my sweet lady, i'm as close as i can be
I swear to you our time has just begun

sylvie vartan. john sings it again by himslef on the love again
and a celebration of life albums.

I didn't think it could happen again
I'm just too old and set in my ways
I was convinced i would always be lonely
All of the rest of my days
Maybe i give up on romance
In my longing to give up the pain
I just didn't believe i would ever love again

I was like one who had shut myself in
Closed the windows, locked all the doors
Afraid of the dark and the beat of my heart
Yet knowing there had to be more
Though it sounds like a great contradiction
It's the easiest thing to explain
You see, i was afraid i might never love again

What does it take for a blind man to see
That there's more there than just meets the eye
What are the ways that the magic comes in
That can turn a song into a sigh
Sometimes i think that i'm dreaming
Or maybe i'm going insane
Or maybe it's just that i'm falling in love again

Here i am standing beside you
Oh life's such a wonderful game
Look at me now, i'm falling in love
Look at me now, i'm falling in love
Look at me now, i'm falling in love again

On the road of experience
I'm trying to find my own way
Sometimes i wish that i could fly away
When i think that i'm moving
Suddenly things stand still
I'm afraid &cause i think they always will

And i'm looking for space
And to find out who i am
And i'm looking to know and understand
It's a sweet sweet dream
Sometimes i'm almost there
Sometimes i fly like an eagle and
Sometimes i'm deep in despair

All alone in the universe
Sometimes that's how it seems
I get lost in the sadness and the screams
Then i look in the centre
Suddenly everything's clear
I find myself in the sunshine and my dreams

And i'm looking for space
And to find out who i am
And i'm looking to know and understand
It's a sweet sweet dream
Sometimes i'm almost there
Sometimes i fly like an eagle and
Sometimes i'm deep in despair

On the road of experience
Join in the living day
If there's an answer
It's just that it's just that way

When you're looking for space
And to find out who you are
When you're looking to try and reach the stars
It's a sweet sweet sweet dream
Sometimes i'm almost there
Sometimes i fly like an eagle and
Sometimes i'm deep in despair
Sometimes i fly like an eagle
Like an eagle, ooh


21.Like A Sad Song

usually in the morning
I'm filled with sweet belonging
And everything is beautiful to see
Even when it's raining
The sound of heaven singing
Is simply joyful music to me
Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you

So many different places
A million smiling faces
Life is so incredible to me
Especially to be near you
And how it is to touch you
Oh, paradise was made for you and me
Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you

I know that life goes on just perfectly
Everything is just the way that it should be
Still there are times when my heart feel like breaking
And anywhere is where i'd rather be

Oh, and in the nighttime
I know that it's the right time
To hold you close and tell you i love you so
To have someone to share with
And someone i can care with
And that is why i wanted you to know

Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you
Without you.

All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin'
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already i'm so lonesome
I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
&cause i'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when i'll be back again
Oh babe, i hate to go

There's so many times i've let you down
So many times i've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Ev'ry place i go, i'll think of you
Ev'ry song i sing, i'll sing for you
When i come back, i'll bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
&cause i'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when i'll be back again
Oh babe, i hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes
I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When i won't have to leave alone
About the times, i won't have to say

Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
&cause i'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when i'll be back again
Oh babe, i hate to go

But, i'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when i'll be back again
Oh babe, i hate to go

Ms.

You came looking for the answers
To some questions on his mind
Seeking truth and understanding
In the hope that he would find
A way to better serve his brothers
And his sisters in the sun
Sharing all that he has given
Giving all to everyone

Come and listen to the story
Of a journey once begun
Of a people and their plenty
And their season in the sun
And how they gave themselves to symbols
And things that they could hold
Living lives in desperation
In the fear of letting go

It amazes me
And i know the wind will surely one day
Blow it all away
It amazes me
And i'm so very grateful that you made the world this way

For our plans have come together now
Where do we go from here
Will our differences divide us
Must we always live in fear
For there are things that we must move through
Some things to cast aside
But our father watches over us
Our mother will provide

It amazes me
And i know the wind will someday surely
Blow it all away
It amazes me
And i'm so very grateful that you made the world this way

It amazes me
It amazes me
It amazes me

It's cold here in the city
It always seems that way
And i've been thinking about you almost everyday
Thinking about the good times
Thinking about the rain
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again

I'm sorry for the way things are in china
I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
&cause you're not here with me

Our friends ask all about you
I say you're doing fine
And i expect to hear from you almost anytime
But they all know i'm crying
I can't sleep at night
They all know i'm dying down deep inside

I'm sorry fro all the lies i told you
I'm sorry for the things i didn't say
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
I can't believe you went away

I'm sorry if i took some things for granted
I'm sorry for the chains i put on you
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
For living without you

Jesse went away last summer, a couple of months ago
After all our time together, it was hard to see her go
She called me right up when she arrived, asked me one more time
to come
Or livin' on an la freeway, ain't my kinda havin' fun

I think i'd rather be a cowboy
I think i'd rather ride the reigns
I think i'd rather be a cowboy
Then to lay me down and love the lady's chains

We were just beginnin', it was such an easy way
Layin' back up in the mountains, makin' songs for summer days
She got tired of pickin' daisies, cookin' my meals for me
She can live the life she wants to, yes, it's alright with me

I think i'd rather be a cowboy
I think i'd rather ride the reigns
I think i'd rather be a cowboy
Then to lay me down and love the lady's chains

I'd rather live on the side of a mountain
Than wander through canyons of concrete and steel
I'd rather laugh with the rain and the sunshine
Then lay down my sun down in some starry field

Oh, but i miss her in the morning, when i awake alone
The absence of her laughter, is a cold and empty sound
But her memory always makes me smile, and i want you to know
I love her yes i love her, just enough to let her go

I think i'd rather be a cowboy
I think i'd rather ride the reigns
I think i'd rather be a cowboy
Then to lay me down and love the lady's chains

I think i'd rather be a cowboy
I think i'd rather ride the reigns
I think i'd rather be a cowboy
Then to lay me down and love lady's chains


26.I Want To Live

there are children raised in sorrow
On a scorched and barren plain
There are children raised beneath a golden sun
There are children of the water
Children of the sand
And they cry out through the universe
Their voices raised as one

I want to live i want to grow
I want to see i want to know
I want to share what i can give
I want to be i want to live

Have you gazed out on the ocean
Seen the breaching of a whale?
Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam?
Have you heard the song the humpback hears five hundred miles
away
Telling tales of ancient history of passages and home?

I want to live i want to grow
I want to see i want to know
I want to share what i can give
I want to be i want to live

For the worker and the warrior the lover and the liar
For the native and the wanderer in kind
For the maker and the user and the mother and her son
I am looking for my family and all of you are mine

We are standing all together
Face to face and arm in arm
We are standing on the threshold of a dream
No more hunger no more killing
No more wasting life away
It is simply an idea
And i know its time has come

I want to live i want to grow
I want to see i want to know
I want to share what i can give
I want to be i want to live


27.How Can I Leave You Again

di di di di di la la la la la la
In a spaceship over the mountains
Chasing rainbows in the setting sun
Leaving heart and home for the city of angels
I feel my life is undone

There are pathways winding below me
In pleasure i've gone where they go
In the quiet stillness i can hear symphonies
The loveliest music i know

How can i leave you again
I must be clear out of my mind
Lost in a storm i've gone blind
Oh, how can i leave you again

Oh, it's been a long time since i've listened
Still longer since i've walked with you
For the first time i know what i'm missing
Some answers are no longer true

So i question the course that i follow
I'm doubtful and deep in despair
My heart is full of impossible notions
Can it be you no longer care?

Still, i ride on the wings of a high wind
Blowing steady and strong behind me
As the clouds surrender my fate is for certain
I'm a sailor who runs to the sea

How can i leave you again
I must be clear out of my mind
Lost in a storm i've gone blind
Oh, how can i leave you again


28.Goodbye Again

it's five o'clock this morning, and the sun is on the rise
There's frosting on the window pane, and sorrow in your eyes
The stars are fading quietly, the night is nearly gone
And so you turn away from me, and tears begin to come

And it's goodbye again, i'm sorry to be leavin' you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again, and i wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when i have to go

It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm
I long to lay me down again, to hold you in my arms
I long to kiss the tears away, give you back the smile
Other voices beckon me, to go a little while

And it's goodbye again, i'm sorry to be leavin' you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again, and i wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when i have to go

Have to go and see some friends of mine, some that i don't know
Some who aren't familiar with my name,
It's something that's inside of me not hard to understand
It's anyone who listens to me sing

And if your hours are empty now, who am i to blame
You think if i were always here, our love would be the same
As it is the time we have, is worth the time alone
And lying by your side, the greatest peace i've ever known

But it's goodbye again, i'm sorry to be leavin' you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again, and i wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when i have to go

It's by far the hardest thing i've ever done
To be so in love with you and so alone

Follow me where i go what i do and who i know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say you'll follow me

It's long been on my mind
You know it's been a long, long time
I've tried to find the way that i can make you understand
The way i feel about you and just how much i need you
To be there where i can talk to you
When there's no one else around

Follow me where i go what i do and who i know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say you'll follow me

You see i'd like to share my life with you
And show you things i've seen
Places that i'm going to places where i've been
To have you there beside me and never be alone
And all the time that you're with me
We will be at home

Follow me where i go what i do and who i know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way
Take my hand and i will follow you

Well i guess that you probably know by now
I was one who wanted to fly
I wanted to ride on that arrow of fire right up into heaven
And i wanted to go for every man
Every child, every mother of children
I wanted to carry the dreams of all people right up to the stars

And i prayed that i'd find an answer there
Or maybe i would find a song
Giving a voice to all of the hearts that cannot be heard
And for all of the ones who live in fear
And all of those who stand apart
My being there would bring us a little step closer together

They were flying for me
They were flying for everyone
They were trying to see a brighter day for each and everyone

They gave us their light
They gave us their spirit and all they could be
They were flying for me
They were flying for me

And i wanted to wish upon the milky way
And dance upon a falling star
I wanted to give myself and free myself, and join myself with it
all

Given the chance to dream, it can be done
The promise of tomorrow is real
Children of spaceship earth
The future belongs to us all

She was flying for me
She was flying for everyone
She was trying to see a brighter day for each and everyone

She gave us her light
She gave us her spirit and all she can be
She was flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for everyone
They were trying to see a brighter day for each and everyone

They gave us their light
They gave us their spirit and all they can be
They were flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for me

All of her days have gone soft and cloudy
All of her dreams have gone dry
All of her nights have gone sad and shady
She's getting ready to fly

Fly away, fly away, fly away

Life in the city can make you crazy
For sounds of the sand and the sea
Life in a high-rise can make you hungry
For things that you can't even see

Fly away, fly away, fly away

In this whole world there's nobody as lonely as she
There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere that she'd rather be

She's looking for lovers and children playing
She's looking for signs of the spring
She listens for laughter and sounds of dancing
She listens for any old thing

Fly away, fly away, fly away

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
I'm the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
See what they might bring
I think i made it perfectly
I wouldn't change a thing

Welcome to my happiness
You know it makes me smile
And it pleases me to have you here
For just a little while
While we open up the spaces
Try to break some chains
And if the truth is told
They will never come again

Welcome to my evening
The closing of the day
I could try a million times
Never find a better way
To tell you that i love you
And all the songs i play
Are to thank you for allowing me
Inside this lovely day

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
Yes, i'm the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
And see what they might bring
I think i made it perfectly
I wouldn't change a thing

Horses are creatures who worship the earth
As they gallop on feet of ivory
Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth
The horses still run, they are free

My body is merely the shell of my soul
But the flesh must be given its due
Like a pony that carries its rider back home
Like an old friend that's tried and been true

I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses i'm flying again

Eagles inhabit the heavenly heights
They know neither limit nor bound
They're the guardian angels of darkness and light
They see all and hear every sound

My spirit will never be broken or caught
For the soul is a free-flowing thing
Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought
To rise up on glorious wings

I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses i'm flying again

My body is merely the shell of my soul
But the flesh must be given its due
Like a pony that carries its master back home
Like an old that's tried and been true

My spirit will never be broken or caught
For the soul is a free-flowing thing
Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought
To rise up on glorious wings

I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses i'm flying again

I guess growing isn't hard to do
Just stand against the wall
Once i was just two feet high
Today i'm six feet tall

But knowing who to listen to
Is something else again
Words just whistle &round my head
Like seasons in the wind

All across the water the clouds are sailing
They won't let me look at the sky
All i want to do is try and find myself
Come and let me look in your eyes

In searching for the way to go
I've followed all the rules
The way they say to chooses between
The wise men and the fools

I listen to the words they say
I read what i should read
I do whatever's right to do
Try to be what i should be

Someone let me in i think the sky is falling
Seems i've gotten lost on my way
All i want to do is try and find myself
Come and let me look in your eyes

Ah, but wisdom isn't underground
Nor on a mountainside
And where am i to take myself
There's no place here to hide

All across the universe the stars are fading
Seems we've gotten lost on our way
All i want to do is try and find myself
Come and let me look in your eyes
Come and let me look in your eyes
Come and let me look in your eyes

To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
To work in the service of life and the living
In search of the answers to questions unknown
To be part of the movement and part of the growing
Part of beginning to understand

Aye, calypso, the places you've been to
The things that you've shown us
The stories you tell
Aye, calypso, i sing to your spirit
The men who have served you
So long and so well

Like the dolphin who guides you
You bring us beside you
To light up the darkness and show us the way
For though we are strangers in your silent world
To live on the land we must learn from the sea
To be true as the tide
And free as the wind-swell
Joyful and loving in letting it be

Aye, calypso, the places you've been to
The things that you've shown us
The stories you tell
Aye, calypso, i sing to your spirit
The men who have served you
So long and so well

There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in
The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders
There's a truck out on the four lane a mile or more away
The whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder

He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky
And ten days on the road are barely gone
There's a fire softly burnin', supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm

Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes 'n' hey, it's good to be back home again

There's all the news to tell him, how'd you spend your time
What's the latest thing the neighbors say
And your mother called last friday, sunshine§ made her cry
You felt the baby move just yesterday

Hey it's good to be back home again - yes it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes 'n' hey, it's good to be back home again

Oh the time that i can lay this tired old body down
Feel your fingers feather soft upon me
The kisses that i live for, the love that lights my way
The happiness that that livin' with you brings me

It's the sweetest thing i know of, just spending time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burnin' supper on the stove
The light in your eyes that makes me warm

Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes 'n' hey, it's good to be back home again

Hey it's good to be back home again - you know it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Hey, it's good to be back home again
I said hey it's good to be back home again

Here i am closing my eyes again
Trying so hard not to see
All the things that i see
Almost willing to lie again
I swear that it just isn't so
It just isn't me

We are never alone
Even though we'd like to be

The i go and open my eyes again
Love in your eyes is the thing
That i'd most like to see
I'd be willing to die again
To know of a place and a time
Where it always could be

To be always with you
And you always with me

This is my autograph
Here is the songs i sing
Here is my cry and my laugh
Here is the love that i bring

To be always with you
And you always with me

Say a prayer and open your heart again
You are the love and the life
That we all need to see
Always willing to shine and then
Peace on this earth is the way
That it always can be

To be always with you
And you always with me

This is my autograph
Here is the songs i sing
Here is my cry and my laugh
Here is the love that i bring

To be always with you
And you always with me

See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow aspenglow

As the winter days unfold
Hearts grow warmer with the cold
Peace of mind is all you know
Winter snow aspenglow

Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive

Smiling faces all around
Laughter is the only sound
Memories that can't grow old
Winter snow aspenglow

Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive

See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow aspenglow

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
