Red Rubber Ball: A Collection

The Cyrkle Red Rubber Ball: A Collection Lyrics
1.Red Rubber Ball

Lyricist:Paul Simon, Bruce Woodley

I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very
well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

The story's in the past with nothin' to recall
I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all
The roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

Oh, oh, oh
I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball


2.Turn Down Day

Lyricist:David Blume, Jerry Paul Keller

It's much too groovy a summer's day
To waste running 'round in the city
But here on the sand I can dream away
Or look at the girls in their pretty

It's a turn down day, nothin' on my mind
It's a turn down day and I dig it

There's nothing easier I can do
Than lyin' around doing nothing

It's a turn down day, just a turn 'round day
It's a turn down day and I dig it

Soft summer breeze and the surf rolls in
To laughter of small children playin'
Someone's radio has the news tuned in
But nobody cares what he's sayin'

Don't you know
It's a turn down day, nothin' on my mind
It's a turn down day and I dig it

Things that are waitin' to mess my mind
Will just have to wait 'til tomorrow

It's a turn down day, just a turn 'round day
It's a turn down day and I dig it

It's a turn down day, nothin' on my mind
It's a turn down day, just a turn 'round day
It's a turn down day, just a turn 'round day


3.We Had A Good Thing Goin'

Lyricist:Howard Greenfield, Neil Sedaka

We had a good thing going
But it couldn't last
We had a good thing going
But now it's just a thing of the past

Love took a long time growing
But then it turned bad
You've got no way of knowing
Just how much I'm missing
All the love we had

Well, I know that you don't want me any longer, baby
But my love for you keeps getting stronger, baby
Even though you're gone, I can't keep from hanging on

'Cause we had a good thing going
So don't let it end
Let's save our love by showing
We can get that good thing going again

A good thing going
A good thing going
A good thing going

We had a good thing going
So don't let it end
We'll save our love by showing
We can get that good thing going again

We can get that good thing going again
We can get that good thing going again
We can get that good thing going again
...


4.Penny Arcade

Lyricist:Sandy Linzer, Denny Randall

Come on, girl, follow me
To the Penny Arcade
Holding hands, walking free
Through the Penny Arcade

There's carousels going up and down
Wishing wells for wishing round
At the Penny Arcade
And there's a clown at the Penny Arcade

In the tunnel of love, we'll kiss and hide
Come out of the other side
And we'll have it made 'cause there's no guide
At the Penny Arcade

I'll treat you good
Bring you with all of good
Then we can fly
Red balloons up in the sky

Come on, girl, follow me
To the Penny Arcade
Holding hands, walking free
Through the Penny Arcade
The Penny Arcade

There's a magic stand with a gypsy there
When he reads your hand, you'll know I care
At the Penny Arcade
And there's a bear at the Penny Arcade

Then a laughing place I'll take you to
Where funny faces look at you
There's lemonade to cool you too
At the Penny Arcade

I'll treat you good
Bring you with all of good
Then we can fly
Red balloons up in the sky

Come on, girl, follow me
To the Penny Arcade
Holding hands, walking free
Through the Penny Arcade
The Penny Arcade

I'll treat you good
Bring you with all of good
Then we can fly
Red balloons up in the sky

Come on, girl, follow me
To the Penny Arcade
Holding hands, walking free
Through the Penny Arcade
The Penny Arcade, Penny Arcade


5.The Visit (She Was Here)

Lyricist:Ward Leslie Chandler, Edward Mc Kendry

She was here with me today
Walking softly, holding hands
And I thought I heard her say
She loved me

As we walked I felt her eyes
Reaching deeply into mine
And I thought I heard her sigh
She loved me

And along the way we shared a thought or two
It seemed as if I knew her well
Then she leaned to me and as we gently kissed
I knew that moment my heart fell

She was here

Now I'm lost in wondering
As if waking suddenly
Was it real or just a dream?
Where is she?

Was she really here today
Or was I just drifting back
To the times I heard her say
She loved me?

Was she really here today?
She loved me
She loved me
