1.1. (Just Like) Starting Over
Our Life together is so precious together
We have grown - we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over - starting over
Everyday we used to make it love
Why can't we be making love nice and easy
It's time to spread our wings and fly
Don't let another day go by my love
It'll be just like starting over - starting over
Why don't we take off alone
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together on our own again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, well darling
Repeat 1 & 2
Kiss kiss kiss kiss me love
Just one kiss, kiss will do
Kiss kiss kiss kiss me love
Just one kiss, kiss will do
Why death
Why life
Warm hearts
Cold darts
Kiss kiss kiss kiss me love
I'm bleeding inside
It's a long, long story to tell
And I can only show you my hell
Touch touch touch touch me love
Just one touch, touch will do
Touch touch touch touch me love
Just one touch, touch will do
Why me
Why you
Broken mirror
White terror
Touch touch touch touch me love
I'm shaking inside
It's that faint faint sound of the childhood bell
Ringing in my soul
Kiss kiss kiss kiss me love
Just one kiss, kiss will do.
Moonlight on the water
Sunlight on my face
You and me together
We are in our place
The gods are in the heavens
The angels treat us well
The oracle has spoken
We cast the (perfect) spell
Now it begins - let it begin
Cleanup Time
(Show those mothers how to do it)
The queen is in the counting home
Counting out the money
The king is in the kitchen
Making bread and honey
No friends and yet no enemies
Absolutely free
No rats aboard the magic ship
Of (perfect) harmony
Now it begins
Cleanup Time
(Show those mothers how to do it)
However far we travel
Wherever we may roam
The center of the circle
Will always be our home
The gods are in the heavens
The angels treat us well
The oracle has spoken
We cast the (perfect) spell
The food is cold
Your eyes are cold
The window's cold
The bed's cold
Give me something that's not cold, come on, come on
Give me something that's not cold, come on, come on
Give me something that's not cold, come on, come on
The chair's hard
Your voice is hard
The money's hard
The living's hard
Give me something that's not hard, come on, come on
Give me something that's not hard, come on, come on
Give me something that's not hard, come on, come on
Give me, give me
And I'll give you my heartbeat
And a bit of tear and flesh
It's not very much but while it's there
You can have it, you can have it.
Here in some stranger's room
Late in the afternoon
What am I doing here at all?
Ain't no doubt about it
I'm losing you
Somehow the wires have crossed
Communication's lost
Can't even get you on the telephone
Just got to shout about it
I'm losing you
Here in the valley of indecision
I don't know what to do
I feel you slipping away
I feel you slipping away
I'm losing you
I'm losing you
You say you're not getting enough
But I remind you of all that bad stuff
So what the hell am I supposed to do?
Just put a bandaid on it?
And stop the bleeding now
Stop the bleeding now
I know I hurt you then
But hell that was way back whan
And well, do you still have to carry that cross?
Don't want to hear about it
I'm losing you
I'm losing you
Save your sweet talk for when you score
Keep your Monday kisses for your glass lady
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving on, moving on you're getting phony
You didn't have to tell a white lie
You knew you scored me for life
Don't stick your fingers in my pie
You know I'll see you through your jive
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving on, moving on we're getting phony
When you were angry you had love in your eyes
When you were sad you had dream in your voice
But now you're giving me your window smile
I'm moving on, moving on it's getting phony
1.7. Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)
Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster's gone
He's on the run and your daddy's here
Beautiful
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful Boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Out on the ocean sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guesss we'll both
Just have to be patient
It's a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes it's a long way to go
But in the meantime
Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you're busy
Making other plans
Beautiful
Beautiful
Beautiful boy
Darling
Darling
Darling Sean
People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings
to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm o.k. They look at me kind of strange
Surely you're not harry now you no longer play the game
People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice
designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine
watching shadows on the wall
Don't you miss the big time boy
you're no longer on the ball?
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels
go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
People asking questions lost in confusion
Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and look
at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry...
I'm just sitting here doing time
I'm just sitting here watching
the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
Yes, I'm your angel
I'll give you everything
In my magic power
So make a wish
And I'll let it come true for you tra, la la la
Yes, you're my fairy
You give me everything
I ever wanted from life
Have I made a wish
And is that why I have you tra, la la la
We believe in pumpkins that
Turn into princesses
And frogs that turn into princes
We believe in moons that smile to us
When we hurry home before the midnight strikes, tra lalala
Yes, I'm so pretty
You're so dizzy
And we're so happy every day
Let's make a wish
And let it come true for us
I'm in your pocket
You're in my locket
And we're so lucky in every way
We make a wish
And let it come true for us
We believe in houses built in the sky
And love that lifts us high
We believe in the sun that looks over our
Shoulders and brings our shadows together, tra la la la
Yes,
Our hearts are one
Our bodies, too
And it's so good (um) everytime
We make a wish
And let it come true for you, too
Happy birthday, my love
I'm your angel
I'll give you everything
In my magic power
So make a wish
And I'll let it come true for you
Woman I can hardly exrpess
My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
After all I'm forever in your debt
And woman I will try to express
My inner feelings and thankfulness
For showing me the meaning of success ooh well
Woman I know you understand
The little child inside the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman hold me close to your heart
However distant don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars ooh well
Woman please let me explain
I never mean(t) to cause you sorrow or pain
So let me tell you again and again and again
(I love you now and forever)
You're a beautiful boy
With all your little toys
Wour eyes have seen the world
Though you're only four years old
And your tears are streaming
Even when you're smiling
Please never be afraid to cry
You're a beautiful boy
With all your little ploys
Your mind has changed the world
And you're now forty years old
You got all you can carry
And still feel somehow empty
Don't ever be afraid to fly
All you beautiful boys
Creating multiple plays
You like to fence in your world
And settle down when you're old
You can run from pole to pole
And never scratch your soul
Don't be afraid to go to hell and back
Don't be afraid to go to hell and back
Don't be afraid to be afraid
Even after all these years
I miss you when you're not here
I wish you were here my dear Yoko
Even if it's just a day
I miss you when you're away
I wish you were here today dear Yoko
Even if it's just one night
I miss you and it don't feel right
I wish you were here tonight dear Yoko
Even if it's just an hour
I wilt just like a fading flower
Ain't nothing in the world like our love dear
Yoko
Oh Yoko
I'll never ever let you go
Even when I'm miles at sea
And nowhere is the place to be
Your spirit's watching over me dear Yoko
Even when I watch T.V.
There's a hole where you're supposed to be
There's nobody lying next to me
Oh Yoko
I'll never ever let you go
Even after all this time
I miss you like the sun don't shine
Without you I'm a one track mind dear Yoko
After all is really said and done
The two of us are really one
The goddess really smiled upon our love dear Yoko
1.13. Every Man has a Woman Who Loves Him
Every man has a woman who loves him
In rain or shine or life or death
If he finds her in this life time
He will know when he presses his ear to her breast
Why do I roam when I know you're the one
Why do I laugh when I feel like crying
Every woman has a man who loves her
Rise or fall of her life and in death
If she finds him in this life time
She will know when she looks into his eyes
Why do I roam when I know you're teh one
Why do I run when I feel like holding you
Every man has a woman who loves him
If he finds her in this life time
He will know
1.14. Hard Times are Over
Its been very hard
But it's getting easier now
Hard times are over, over for awhile
The leaves are shining in the sun
And I'm smiling inside
You and I watching every other on a street corner
Cars and buses, planes and people go by
But we don't care
We want to know
We want to know in each other's eyes
That hard times are over, over for some time
Hard times are over
Hard times are over
Hard times are over, over for awhile
Its been very rough
But it's getting easier now
Hard times are over, over for awhile
The streams are twinkling in the sun
And I'm smiling inside
You and I walking together 'round the street corner
Hard times are over
Hard times are over
Hard times are over, over for awhile
