歌词

if i could
if i could
give anything i would
if my thoughts could do you good

if i could help you with
this part of life you've got to live
you could load your weight on me

if i meant to you
what you mean to me
your fight would also be
the greatest thing
you could do for me

if i knew
when your pain be shining through
i could be watching over you

if i'd been close
i could reach the things to use
and know just what to do

one thing i will do
to never let you go
never let you go
never let you go


the years
the years betray me now
they usually count
supposed to be getting by
move along with time
why not this time

at least, they should make me feel
how long it's been
help me to understand
what wasn't real
and teach what all means
why do not these years count

he was such a stranger then
by now he should be again
it's too crazy to tell that man
i was in love, i still am
no, i can't say i still love that man

the years should make a change
make someone out of me
they should be here
to give a second chance
show how to change the wheels
they should bring something real
they should bring something real


you can always long for may
don't go after him
don't go after him
don't go after him
don't go

on our walk today
you were about to lift and stir against
where he's been blowing to

don't get fooled by him
it isn't him, it's just may
you feel on your skin

it's making love to you
as it didn't know
how love can make
one's sorrow grow

take me home again
i will lock you in
until you've rested on the couch

i loved it yesterday
you took me out of play
but for every laugh
i hear a cry and a prayer

so when day is done
you must be okay

please don't go
he doesn't want you to
he doesn't want you
to go his way

you can't ask for him
he won't let you in
you can always long for may

i'll bring your lovers here
steal them from everywhere
all lovers you might need

one to make you sleep
one to make you live
and one to make you breathe

please don't go
don't be thinking of
you will find him on the way

he is gone, he'll never come
but you
can always long for may


ready
my new love is you see
tied to the dock and waits for me
older than it appears to be
saving one last trip for me

roughly treated with a broken pole
for love only it's been sold
saw the leak under the surface and
said hold on we will sail again

i'm ready to head off with you
i'm ready to head off with you
my love just had enough
only one owner from giving up
but a shipwreck can't in love be done
in summer air and under a dying sun

i'm ready to head off with you
i'm ready to head off with you
i'm ready to head off with you
i'm ready to head off with you

who knows how long our love will last
i come from a dream and it from the past
who knows what it will do to me
when ropes are loosed and waters free


not with you
kissed by the rain not by you
warmed by the spring not by you
held in a ring dance not by you
touched by a ghost not by you

hours on the shore not with you
filled by the wind not by you
long for the evening not for you
all those feelings not for you

i'm here, i'm here, i'm flying
i might only miss one thing
i have stopped to talk about it
but it could be dream

taking a picture not of you
remembering times not with you
love has nothing more to do
i'm here not with you




I'm the Rain
Open your eyes now
What do you see
Isn't the view different
It is to me

The view of lovers
Sometimes change
Some put the sun there
Some make it rain

If you are the sun
I'm the rain
Look at the time now
What do you feel

Don't you have to go now
Away from me
The time for lovers
Sometimes end
Some kinds can be staying
Mine must leave again

If you are the sun
I'm the rain
Look at the time now
What do you feel

You were the sun
And I was the rain
Open and rise now
Do I look the same

If you are the sun
I'm the rain
You are the sun
I'm the rain
You are the sun
I'm the rain


Our Man
How could we say goodbye
How can we say goodbye
How make a song reach the sky
How make your song reach the sky

My angels make the best of room
Here comes someone
You really ought to get to know
Here comes someone beautiful from below
It ain't easy to watch him go

A treasure chest sinking down
To the bottom of the sea
It's too deep, it's too high
Today it really, really hurts to feel

For sorrow you can't train your heart
Now is when we all go under
If tomorrow comes we will talk
And remember you
As our man of thousand wonders



it knows
i know where, it revives
it plays so dead
but i know
where it goes wild

just let it be, it's still inside
pretends it's asleep
but i know
where it'd break out

yes i know where to go
to make it show
but i took it there
far too many times
that's what it knows
it knows, it knows

i know where
it get back its time
it feels so old
but i know where
it'd get young

just let it be
don't need to feel it now
plays hide and seek
but i know it's just the child

yes i know where to go
to make it show
but i took it there
far too many times
that's what it knows
it knows, it knows



to be forgiven
i've got to choose a road with
many churches along
i need to be forgiven
before i can be moving on

i've got to find those priests that
can be looking down on me
and tell me i'm forgiven
for every wrong i feel

'cause other way is prison
and there's no place i wanna be

i've got to read some chapters
to teach me good and kind
i need to be forgiven
for the dark things on my mind

'cause other way is prison
and i can't stay there all night
other way is prison

i need to earn salvation
that can help me just to be
i need to be forgiven
before i ever can walk free

song of the night
this must be my last song for you
all of me is in there
i'll call it what i've been calling you
you're the song of the night

nobody knows that you are here
in my mind
i've got to do something else
than let you take my time

you are the song of the night
i've got to fade out
you are the song of the night

you know that you're always here
i've spoken many times
with you, i've always been sincere
though the weight of you looks blind

you are the song of the night
i've got to fade out
you are the song of the night

to know you
to know you
means a lot of things
lot of love, lot of dreams

you are a world
i can't explore
you're a scene
got a feeling about
what that's gonna mean

to be around you
means i can't be there
got to take my mind
out of there

to explain you
means my heart in show
you are the reminder
of the nothingness
i'm open to
