1.Easter Island
Guarding the carcass, we stripped and devided
To carve up and covet they wait there alone
Keeping the secret the rest have forgotten
And staring in silence from sockets of stone
Built and obeyed with the best of intentions
Stranger than truth and as lost and alone
Stranded like dogs in a star-spangled manger
No good to nothing not even their own
Chorus：
Holy-o-my god-i
Can't see the stars in the sky
For the sun in my eye
She's like a dream that a world quit believin'
Caught in the action back to the sea
How many more might have come from that mountain？
Barely the creatures they struggled to be
Surely the death of so grand an illusion
Left us with legends too great to ignore
Stone-cut survivors of ancient dimensions
Lost in the wonder they came to explore.
Chorus：
Holy star light far brighter
Than the sun in your eye
Singing thy will be done
Repeat chorus：
Holy star light far brighter
Than the sun in your eye
Singing thy will be done
2.Forever In Your Love
Lovers make believe in dreams
Dreamers make believe in makin' love to last forever
Losers can't believe in anything at all
Hey-we never meant to fall so hard
But don't be sorry
Chorus：
Think of all the love we made us
Since you used to be afraid of
Staring at those starry skies above our lives
And now you're free to
Be the best that you can be now
＞from here to eternity and i'll be here
Forever in your love
Nothing ever stays the same
Sometimes lovers even learn to change
And turn to strangers
If we never see a single dream come true
Hey, i still believe in you and me and i'm not sorry.
Chorus：
Think of all the love we made us
Since you used to be afraid of
Staring at those starry skies above our lives
And now you're free to
Be the best that you can be now
＞from here to eternity and i'll be here
Forever in your love
Be the best that you can be now
＞from here to eternity and i'll be here
Forever in your love.
3.Lay Me Down(And Love The World Away)
I'm not mad at nothin' baby, try to understand
I don't care what happened yesterday, no
I'm just glad that you're so glad to see my face again
That's all that's important anyway
Chorus：
I believe the hardest part is over
Wakin' up without you everyday
Nothin' matters now that we're together
Lay me down and love the world away
We've no way of knowing baby how it's gonna end
Maybe we'll be sorry one more time
It just feels so good to me to feel so good again
I'll just lay my chances on the line
Chorus：
I believe the hardest part is over
Wakin' up without you everyday
Nothin' matters now that we're together
Lay me down and love the world away
4.Living Legend
Was it bitter then with our backs against the wall？
Were we better men than we'd ever been before？
Say, if she came again today, would you still answer to the
call？
Tell the truth, my friend, don't it matter anymore？
We were simple men by her side when she was born
It was simple then like the freedom when you fall
And we were smaller then, you see, but soon we gathered like a
storm.
They don't understand what that thunder meant at all.
Was he crucified？ was he done in by the lawman？
Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again？
Some people say he got away; they say he never died at all.
If that story's true, does it bother you, my friend？
Was it bitter then, with our backs against the wall？
Were we better men than we'd ever been before？
Say, if she came again today, would you still answer to the
call？
Tell the truth, my friend, don't it matter anymore？
5.Risky Business
Eight ounce gloves now, it's title time
You can use your chosen tools and i'll choose mine
I'm afraid we've gone and laid it on the line
It's a risky business
In the garden-time to go
Show them crazies who's the one who runs the show
While they gamble in your corner for your robe
It's a risky business
And the best that you can do is buy some time
'til they can find somebody better
It don't matter what they call you when you
Know you've been the best that you could be
Give 'em hell boy, while you can
Make them fight to take the title you defend
'til they nail you with a double-cross again
It's a risky business
6.Spooky Lady's Revenge
Looky here, who's in focus now
Hard and clear to the bone
No more fears that you'd notice now
Like a tear cast in stone
And she comes from a spring to a fountain
On the wings of her song
She's the king of the mountain
She's so good, lord, and she's gone
Chorus：
Cause she's a star-see her shining
She'll go far, for a price
But she's hard in the heart like a diamond
Flashin' fire--cold as ice
Chorus：
Cause she's a star-see her shining
She'll go far, for a price
But she's hard in the heart like a diamond
Flashin' fire--cold as ice
7.The Fighter
I seen an old fighter, tired and in trouble
Who just couldn't take anymore
Somethin' inside him kept fighting to finish
With only his feet on the floor-yeah
Lord, i know that it's worth any price you could pay
To see truth in whatever disguise
But i'd payed double for one look of pleasure
A piece of relief in his eyes.
Chorus：
Ain't that clown, laughin' like crazy
Ain't his eyes empty and deep
Don't he sound sad as a baby
When she cries out in her sleep
We measured the space between waylon and willie
And willie and waylon and me
But there wasn't nothin' like billy jo shaver
What billy jo shaver should be-no
When he showed up sick later all bit by a spider
And crazy to look in the eye
He put on a show that was sad as it should of been
And nobody even knew why
Chorus：
Ain't that clown laughin' like crazy
Ain't his eyes empty and deep
Don't he sound sad as a baby
When she cries out in her sleep
8.The Sabre And The Rose
Feet hit the ground; feet leaving town
Quicker than a bullet or a knife
Falling ain't no fun when you're on the run
Honey we was runnin' for our life
When stagger lee had drunk his fill of moonlight
He turned his burnin' eyes upon my soul
'it's time, by god, to spend this night with someone else', he
said.
'squeeze a little pleasure from the gold' (love ＆ glory,
children)
We can take it easy when we're old.
He said, 'we'll take us into town, lay our money down
I'll bring you to the sweetest thing that grows
Because the fairest ones in sight are bloomin' every night at a
tavern
Called the sabre and the rose.'
We swang into the saddle slick as breathing
And slapped 'em once for pleasure with the reins
The horses snorted frosty in the moonlight
Somethin' dark was singing in my veins
Older than the voices in my brain.
He said, 'this place you're gonna see is where they live and
breathe
And sink down a little bit deeper every day
And sometimes at night, when the wind is runnin' right,
You can hear it suckin' thirty miles away'
Then the light was crimson and i found her,
All naked and eternal and insane
Sacred as the mysteries around her like a veil
Nothin' but her prison was profane
All we had in common was our chains.
Ah-burn it down boys
Burn it to the ground, boys
Burn it on down
Feet hit the ground; feet leaving town
Quicker than a bullet or a knife
All the way she ran holdin' to my hand
Runnin' for the river and our life
Slidin' from the moonlight into shadows
Silent as the river as it flows
Swimmin' to the place they'll never find us
All we left behind us was our clothes
And the stories, children.
Sing about the sabre and the rose
