Alone in hazardous country,
Tired, lost, fit to collapse,
No need for this old compass,
I'll follow Poseidon's rap.
Poseidon ain't the cream of the crop,
We might not have what it takes to beat the lot,
We ain't the best, we failed the test,
But against the rest, we're at the top.

Poor little girl, sitting it out with the song almost through,
You're looking so sad, you're looking so blue,
Poor little girl, poor little girl.

Bad Dreams (rock)

And as the sun,
Sinks low in the sky,
Take a look around you,
At what is left behind.
And in the morning you will find,
Chances are you've changed your mind.
And in the morning you will find,
Chances are you've changed your mind.
And in the morning you will find,
Chances are you've changed your mind.
And in the morning you will find,
Chances are you've changed your mind.
There's a hole in my heart, it's where you used to be,
Oh-Oh.
And I'm having bad dreams all night,
And I'm having bad dreams all night,
And I'm having bad dreams all night,
And I'm having bad dreams all night.

(sung as a round)
And as my dove flies, a bird upon the wing,
I'll sit here silent, a lonely wedding ring,
Our bond is cold, a band of gold.
Pretty flowers, pretty flowers, who will buy my sprays of gold?
In the morning, in the evening, you can watch as they unfold,
Rain or shine, I'll be here, hear me call.

Follow me down to the Garden of Whispers
And there we'll lie naked alone in the grass.
No need to fear in the Garden of Whispers
Cos our secret t'will be not a soul else will ask.
So come let us love til the dawn meets the dusk time
And all seeds are sown and there's naught else to find
(And there's naught else to find, naught else to find).
(Chorus)
Go away
Don't ever go away
Don't ever go away (no, no, no, no, no)
Don't ever go away.

There's a hundred different ways
To sing this song
And a hundred ways to fall in love.
But every time I think
Of what went wrong
I know a hundred ways was not enough.

I'll meet you at the opera house at quarter to eight
That's what he told her to do
She waited til ten but never again
Did she see her boy in blue
For weeks she stayed in, but the phone didn't ring
That was long ago now, it seemed silly somehow
He always told her what to do (ooo ooo)
So who was this man who took her hand
And held it, did she know?
Familiar face, a soft embrace
A voice that sounded low
Could they start all over again?
Could he be more than a friend?
What if they had
Nothing to say, nothing to say, nothing to say
Nothing to say, nothing to say, nothing to say?

Aimlessly (pop)
05:19
|
|||
|
Come and share some of my life with me,
Come and take all that you want of me,
Without a friendly face or a warm embrace,
I'm wasting my life away,
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh-Oh.
Come and share some of my life with me,
Come and take all that you want of me,
Without a friendly face or a warm embrace,
I'm wasting my life away,
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh-Oh.
Don't know where I'm gonna be,
Cos I'm wandering aimlessly,
Don't know where I'm gonna be,
Cos I'm Wandering aimlessly.
Sooner or later our hearts will beat as one,
Tell me you love me and all my wandering's done,
Tell me you hate me and I'll keep wandering on,
Sooner or later our hearts must beat as one.

You Carried On (r&b)

Yes you were so beautiful,
Led me on and cast me by,
When things got bad to bear,
You carried on.
(Chorus)
Nights were made for lovers,
Don't you know it,
Nights were made for lovers.
Nights were made for lovers,
Never show it,
Nights were made for lovers.
('Guitar solo')
(Repeat chorus)
Yes you were so beautiful,
Led me on and cast me by,
When things got bad to bear,
You carried on.

Sail ahoy, the mizzen sheet,
Blows close to port the master of the fleet,
Upon the wharf she stands forlorn,
Her husband's near but now her love has gone.
Once she was so full of loving,
Then her feelings turned to nothing,
Three full years is far too long to wait.
Nights of comfort with another,
Led to them becoming lovers,
Now she is alone to face her fate.
Because you're mine and I won't share you,
With any other guy,
Once you were mine and I did love you,
But I can't share this love of mine.
Sail ahoy, the mizzen sheet,
Blows close to port the master of the fleet,
For three long years he's been at sea,
Yet he returns once more to stormy quays.
Once she was so full of loving,
Then her feelings turned to nothing,
Three full years is far too long to wait.
Nights of comfort with another,
Led to them becoming lovers,
Now she is alone to face her fate.
Because you're mine and I won't share you,
With any other guy,
Once you were mine and I did love you,
But I can't share this love of mine.

Andrew, Wells & Warner Watchet, UK
My music isn't perfect. Perfect costs money - costs me money, that is (not you). This is simply a retirement project, the aim being to get the best sound out of the 1980s electronic organ in my lounge as is possible. So don't criticize just because it doesn't sound like it was recorded on a swish new digital keyboard, in a swish studio by a swish recording engineer. ... more
Andrew, Wells & Warner recommends:
It's NOT just boom-che, boom-che all the way through. It's stylish, classy. Excellent piano, but with controlled powerful lead guitar to balance. A touch of Bat Out Of Hell with flashes of Marillion.
