One day youre up
And the next day youre down
And all your dreams
Pass you by
You sit in your room
With your face in a frown
Waiting for her
Last goodbye
And all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Wont make her stay any more
And all of the plans youve made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who cant sing any more
Once in awhile you remember her laugh
For she could make you feel strong
twas then that you thought your love always would last
But now it seems you were wrong
And all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Wont make her stay anymore
And all of the plans youve made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who cant sing any more
Golden lark wont you sing any more
Golden lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
Shes a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within
Golden lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
Shes a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within

Why Me
Written by dennis deyoung
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
I guess we used to be the lucky ones
Good fortune smiled on everyone
Stop
A voice said you best beware
Stop
Bad luck is everywhere
And sure enough the voice was right
My luck changed overnight
Stop
Please tell me what went wrong
Stop
I cant take these ups and downs
Hard times come, hard times go
And in between you hope and pray
The scars dont show
cause life is strange and so unsure
The days you hardly make it through
You swear that theres a curse on you
cause nothing seems to fit
And things wont go your way
You know youve had enough
Youve got the right to say
Why me, why me
Rubelator
Stop
Here comes anxiety
Stop
Wont you please let me be, I need relief
Hard times come, hard times go
In between you hope and pray
The scars dont show
cause life is strange and so unsure
The days you hardly make it through
Youre sure that there is a curse on you
If nothing seems to fit
And things wont go your way
You know youve had enough
You cant take another day
Where to go and what to do
Youve got those bills to pay
Youre really not alone you know
cause everybody says,
Why me
Why me
Why me? thats what I want to know. you know what I mean? huh. I dont know.

Jennifer
Written by dennis deyoung
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
Jennifer
She drinks her sherry wine
She keeps her ladys love for me all the time
Shes seventeen, barely old enough to cry
A child in her fathers eyes
A woman every night
Her love,
Gives me the power
Her dreams carry me on
Jennifer, so inviting
That I sing
Jennifer
She took me by surprise
She told me that shes much too young to keep me satisfied
Jennifer, ah so delicate and shy
A child in her mothers eyes but
A woman every night
Her love,
Gives me the power
Her dreams carry me on
Jennifer, so inviting
That I sing...

The Sky-Lark’s Song
WINGED voice to tell the skies of earth,
Dear earth-born lark, sing on, sing clear,
Sing into heaven that she may hear
;Sing what thou wilt, so she but know
Thine ecstasy of summer mirth
And think ''Tis from the world below!'
Instant, old wont returns fresh brought,
And her desire goes seeking me,
For whom her whole world used to be
And all my world for sake of her;
She cannot think an earthward thought
That shall not seem my messenger.
She will be glad for love, and smile,
Saying 'Thank God for joy like ours:
Saying 'There come the kind home hours:
His work-day will be sped ere long,
That keeps him hence this little while.
'Sing, lark, until she know thy song.
Sing of the earth, but sing no care,
Sing thine own measureless content;
She will remember what it meant;
Griefs are too base, but, carolling thus,
Thou with thy joy mayst reach her there,
And she joy too remembering us.

Lonely child you make it easy
You give me love like no one can
Youre my heart, you keep me movin

A Song For Suzanne
Written by dennis deyoung
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
Im just a man
Please let me
Sing my song
Its been ten years
Since I met you
And I first held your hand
My suzanne
That summer night
We dreamed of
Days to come
I held you there
Beside me
We carved the wishing tree
And then
We played the part of lovers
On that summer night
We played the part of lovers
You gave all your love and you made it seem right
You made me a man oh so young in my life
One simple verse
Like the words in a play
You spoke your lines
And I knew I must stay
Oh I must stay
Now we are free
And we are growing old
The wishing tree still stands there
And shades our memories
Of when
We played the part of lovers
On that summer night
We played the part of lovers
You gave all your love and you made it seem right
You made me a man oh so young in my life

Got To Move
Written by homesick james williamson.
Youve got to move, you cant stay here no more
Youve got to move, you cant stay here no more, oh yes
Youre my baby, I love you so,
But, still youve got to go - away from here
You wont cook, you wont wash
You wont iron, you wont sew
Oh, no, you wont even scrub the floor
Youre my baby, I love you so,
But, still youve got to go - away from here
Well, Id rather be dead and in my grave
Then to see another man here to take my place
Oh, yes, youve got to move, yeah
Youre my baby, I love you so,
But still youve got to go away from here
Break:
Well, Id rather be dead and in my grave
Then to see another man here to take my place
Umm, yes, youve got to move, yeah
Youre my baby, I love you so,
But still youve got to go away from here
You got to move, away from here
Oh, yes, you got to move, away from here
Youre my baby, I love you so
But still youve got to go away from here

Just cruising around in her own sweet way
But shes taking her time
And hes gonna get fooled again
She learned about life
Til she wished shew were dead
So she treats that guy like a hole in the head
Can you see him now
Hell never get lucky again

She looks just great and she never slows down
And shes holding his heart and she wont let go again

Oh, shes holding his heart and she wont let go again

Evil Eyes
Written by dennis deyoung
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
Evil eyes
Stole my heart on a dark december night
Souls of flame
Loving her has made me half insane
The way she cast me
In her spell
Secrets I couldnt tell
Were for me
And for you
Once I knew
The joys of loving were for me and you
But now shes here
And with her secrets I know Ill have to bear
To let her take me
From your side
Rob me of all my pride
And my love
Oh sweet love
Evil eyes
Shes got those
Evil eyes
Though Im only her friend
I know Ill love her till the end
Of my life
Oh sweet life
Evil eyes
Shes got those
Evil eyes
Though Im only her friend
I know Ill love her till the end
Of my life

Let There Be Love
Let there be you,
Let there be me.
Let there be oysters
Under the sea.
Let there be wind,
An occassional rain.
Chile con carne,
Sparkling champagne
Let there be birds
To sing in the trees,
Someone to bless me
Whenever I sneeze.
Let there be cuckoos,
A lark and a dove,
But first of all, please
Let there be love.
Let there be cuckoos,

Hand Me Down
Whatever I know too much
You wont be anyone
Now tell me what you are thinking of
How could think youd be enough
Its not that youve stayed too long
Its not that youve done something wrong
Its not your fault
But you embarrass yourself
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you will never make us proud
Youve been used by a army of cues
Youve been touched by the lips of a queen
Now weve all made good use of you
But you wont be needed again
So dont you move and let someone else in
Make some room for a new harlequin
Its never enough
So dont disappoint us again
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you wont ever make us proud
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down
So look at you with your worn out shoes
Livin proof evolutions through
Were stuck with you
This revolutions due
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you wont ever make us proud

Lead vocals by tommy shaw and dennis deyoung
Youve read about me in the papers
Youve seen me on the movie screen
You know everything about me
Im your late night fantasy
But dont think I cant hear you calling
From the shadow of the 14th row
Cause Ive had the same dreams youve had
A few short years ago and thats why I know
You and i
We will climb so high
Superstars
Whoa whoa you and i
And well just close our eyes
And well become our fantasy
Superstars yes, yes, superstars
Step right this way. everyones welcome,
We want your dreams.
The offers simple, momentary immortality
Cause Ive seen them all you know
Ive seen them climb and Ive seen them fall
Ive seen them come and Ive seen them go
And through it all theres only one thing that matters
Love - and thats simply
You and i
Yes, you and i
For we are superstars

To sing and play a little tune

Turn your stereo up all the way
All the way
Now your bodys immersed in sound
So hear the synthesizers play
And now youre in the mood
Let the melody just drift your cares away
Its got to do you good
As it mesmerizes you in its own way
So drift away...

And well hear the birds sing in the spring

When The Rain Comes
Youve come to me again my friend. Ive been waiting so long.
Life seems strange and hard sometimes, maybe I wont make it this time.
Oh theyve taken all I have, but I just need whats left of today, and you can wash it all away.
When it all comes down and Im feeling tired and afraid,
Youre always there, and seem come when Ive nothing left to give away.
Now I wait for your winds to come and give me breath for another day, and your rain to wash me.
I feel the rain coming. I feel it in my heart, take away my pain.
I feel the rain coming. wash me down, wash me down.
Here comes the rain. hold me now, just for awhile.
I feel like a candle flame in the wind. the dust of my deeds past, covers me, like a fading lie.
I feel the rain coming. I feel it in my heart, wash away my pain.
Wash me down, wash me down. I feel the rain coming.
Here comes the rain.

Goodbye To Roseland
Written by dennis deyoung
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
There was a time
When we were children
Blue skies would shine
And all was forgiven
And there were heroes to guide us
And we had family beside us
And there were dreams to believe in
Each and every day
And I was your friend
Father and brother
And you were my wife
Mistress and mother
And through the good times and bad times
We shared the love of a lifetime
Oh what a shame and a damn crime
For it all to end
So goodbye to roseland
How I wish I could stay
To live in the memory
Of your sweet sweet day
But every road that we travel, has an end
And so the time now has come to say
Farewell old friend
Well goodbye to roseland
How I want you to know
Just how much I miss you
So I got to let go
But all the love that you gave me will remain
And every tear that Ive cried has not been shed in vain

Rare, Precious & Gone
Cry baby boy, not tears of joy
The one you held is no longer your toy
Shes got her new boots and her make up on
You can call her your friend
But not your lover again
Shes made it clear as air that this affair is at an end
So what are you doing holding on?
Dont you see shes
Rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
She was soft in your hands, now shes shattered your plans
Im sympathetic but youve got to understand
You tried to squeeze her somewhere
She just dont belong
She was being sincere when she breathed in your ear
As long as there were stars in the night sky shed be near
Even angels get it wrong!
Wont you see shes
Rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Its a subtle trap
Seeding guilt in her mind
But she aint taking your crap
This time
Boy youre out on a line...
Shes a queen among women, a child among queens
The finest thing that your lovesick eyes have ever seen
Shes a rose without a thorn
Shes a peach, shes a prize
A gift in disguise
Shes graceful and colourful and when she grows
Shell be wise
But most of all my friend, shes gone
Gone, gone gone!
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Rare, precious and shes gone
Yes, shes rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Gone, gone gone...

Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
Time stands still, baby when I touch you
I cant believe the way Im feelin
Please dont speak, its taken me all this time
To find the strength just to say
That I never knew what love was til I met you
Never thought that I could act this way
But Im still afraid to show how much I need you
Tell me, what makes a man like me this way
Carrie ann, dont ask me why
Baby I work so hard just to hide my emotions
Carrie ann, words cant explain
The way that I feel in my heart
Lovers hearts never quite beat in time
They never find that perfect rhythm
You know I let you down many times
But this I promise to you
That Ill never lead you through doors of deception
I wont bind you to a chain of lies
Though I know my love for you wont be perfection
What I give to you will last all time
Carrie ann, dont ask me why
Baby I work so hard just to hide my emotions
Carrie ann, my words cant explain
The way that I feel in my heart
Take a little time to realize
Ill love you faithfully
Just take a little time and youll see
That baby its me
Carrie ann, dont ask me why
Baby I work so hard just to hide my emotions

Let there be you, let there be me
Let there be oysters under the sea
Let there be wind, occasional rain

Let there be birds to sing in the trees
Someone to bless me whenever I sneeze
Let there be cuckoos, a lark and a dove
But first of all, please
Let there be love
