Where You Lead
(Carole King/Toni Stern)
Wanting you the way I do
I only want to be with you
And I would go
To the ends of the earth
Cause, darling
To me thats what
Youre worth
Where you lead, I will follow
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, you need me to be with you
I will follow where you lead
If youre out on the road
Feeling lonely, and so cold
All you have to do is call my name
And Ill be there on the next train
Where you lead, I will follow
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, you need me to be with you
I will follow where you lead
I always wanted a real home
With flowers in the window sill
But if you want to live in New York City
Honey, you know I will
I never thought I could get satisfaction
From just one man
If anyone can keep me happy
Youre the one who can
Where you lead, I will follow
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, you need to be with you
I will follow
Where you lead, I will follow
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, you need to be with you
I will follow where you lead
Oh, yes I will
Oh, Im gonna follow where you lead
Im gonna follow where you lead
Oh, Im gonna follow where you lead
I will follow
I will follow
Oh, yes I will

I Will Follow
Yonder mountain so high
I cant make it all on my own, no
Rolling river why so wide?
To sweep me up and to bear me on
Up against the sky so bright
That I cant even close my eyes
I know I will follow (follow love)
Yes, yes, I will follow (follow love)
I will follow (follow love)
Follow love
Growing slowly like a tree
Someday soon, darling I love you
I love you
Soft and gentle, full summer moon
Set my soul free
Thank you, baby
Drifting like a cloud in the sky
I can see myself from high above
I know I must follow (follow love)
Somehow I will follow (follow love)
I must follow (follow love)
Follow love
Oh, half the future and half the past
Theyre waiting inside your eyes
Yes, and after all of this
To last and last
Till at last its your time to rise, rise
True believer that I am
I am blind, lead me on (lead me on)
Blessed receiver of your love
I own my own time
And Ive been holding on (holding on)
Leave the word unspoken
And the spell will not be broken
And Im bound to follow, now (follow love)
I know I must go (follow love)
I must follow (follow love)
Yes, I must follow (follow love)
Someone to hold my hand (follow love)
Somebody to lead me on(follow love)
Somebody to walk beside me (follow love)
Someone to follow me now (follow love)
I must follow love (follow love)
I will fall in love
I will follow love (follow love)
Anywhere it leads me
I will follow love (follow love)

D.C.
Bribing me, We come, We watched how
We're last to throw our pennies
A passive tramps lifts her skirt
And asks us then we throw them down to her
And I know why I will always follow you
Anywhere my brother leads me to
We don't want to live in the sun
Just to keep them happy for awhile
Midnight, and Frank freaks out and reaches God and
Fairly tied up too
But I know why I will always follow you
Anywhere my brother leads me to
And I remember wanting to be you
And pray to God that we would all pull through
Cause I know why I will always follow you
If you're my brother, then I will follow you
Lifelong friends threw bottle ends
And yell in the air like lifelong enemies
Who's stronger, who's lived longer?
World quarrels and grandkids on your knee
Cause I know I will always follow
Anywhere my brother leads me to
And I remember wanting to be you
And pray to God that we would all pull through
Cause I know why I will always follow you
If you're my brother, then I will follow you
Cause I know why I will always follow
I will follow you and I will
I know why I will always follow
I will follow you and I will

No Easy Way Down
(gerry goffin / carole king)
Your toy balloon has sailed
In the sky, love
But now it must fall
To the ground
Now your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
cause there is no easy way down
The view from the cliffs
Must have been exciting
And up to the peaks
You were bound
Now youre stranded alone
And the past is unknown
And there is no easy way down
No it isnt very easy
When youre left on your own
No it isnt very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
Theres no-one to break your fall
And lead you back home, yeah
We all like to climb to the heights of love
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you must know in the end
When its time to descend
That there is no easy way down
You know youre gonna find
There is no easy way down

Wasnt Born To Follow
(gerry goffin / carole king)
Though Id rather go and journey
Where the diamond crescents glowing
Run across the valleys
Beneath the sacred mountain
And wander through the forest
Where the trees of leaves are prisms
That break the light of day into colours
That no-one knows the names of
And when its time
I go and wait beside
A legendary fountain
til I see your form reflected
In its clear and jewelled water
And if you think Im ready
You may lead me to the chasm
Where the rivers of our vision
Flow into one another
And Ill stay awhile
And wonder at
The myths that theyve created
And lose myself within it
Cleanse my mind and body
And I know at the moment
As I stand in that cathedral
I will want to dive in
The white cascading water, water, water
He may beg
And he may plead
He may argue with his logic
He can mention all the things Ill lose
That really have no value
Though I doubt that he will ever come
To understand my meaning
In the end hell surely know
I was not born to follow
I was not born to follow
I wasnt born to follow, no, no
I wasnt born to follow
I wasnt born to follow, no, no
I wasnt born to follow
I wasnt born to follow

Youre The One
Roy orbison/bill dees
You give me the feeling of ascending.
Touching down and lifting off on feeling.
Rising through the thunder and the lightning.
Til I kmow the wonder so exciting.
The world below us doesnt know us.
Still they try to follow where we run.
Between you and me.
Ooh, youre the one.
You, kissing my breath away.
You, sharing our yesterdays.
You tomorrow.
Lead Ill follow.
When I hold you, I am undone.
Youre the one.
Youre the one.
Ridingd trough the heaven of sensation
Taken in your sunshine,sweet vibration.
Holding nothing back,youre my elation.
Trough the night my sighless fascination.
You hold me in and out of dreams.
Awake,asleep and loving leaves me stunned.
Between you and me.
Ooh youre the one.
You,kissing my breath away.
You, sharing our yesterdays.
You tomorrow.
Lead Ill follow.
When I hold you, I am undone.
Youre the one.

Youre the one.

The Turn Of A Friendly Card (Part One)
(lead vocal - chris rainbow)
There are unsmiling faces and bright plastic chains
And a wheel in perpetual motion
And they follow the races and pay out the gains
With no show of outward emotion
And they think it will make their lives easier
For god knows up till now it's been hard
But the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
No the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
There's a sign in the desert that lies to the west
Where you can't tell the night from the sunrise
And not all's the king's horse and all the king's men
Have prevented the fall of the unwise
For they think it will make their lives easier
And god knows it's been hard
But the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
No the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
But a pilgrim must follow in search of a shrine
As he enters inside the cathedral...

If you're looking for romance
Darling, don't you look for me.
If you're looking for romance
Darling, don't you look for me.
I've got a bad habit of wanting
things that aren't good for me.
I don't blame you, Sweetheart
for wanting your fun.
I don't blame you, Sweetheart
for wanting your fun
But you know as well as I do
you can get that from anyone.
I love you, Darling, oh yes
you mean that much to me.
I love you, Darling, it's true
you mean that much to me.
But your kind of loving is the kind
that makes my poor heart bleed.

Look Down
by Carole King & Toni Stern
I'm holding my hand out, keeping my head high,
Trying to get out of mechanical nights,
When I get to the top of the clear, crystal mountain,
I'm going to stay up there as long as I can.
And look down,
Dig in the sights all around,
Listen to all of the sounds and look down,
And look down and look in.
And my mind sends me reeling, breathing and feeling,
I remember the time when I tried to come clean,
But my interests collided, besides I was misguided,
And who do you confide in when you trip on a dream?
And look down,
Dig in the sights all around,
Listen to all of the sounds and look down,
And look down and look in.
If you want to come with me and tell me what you see,
Just step in beside me and do what you want,
And you may see clearly, though it sometimes is lonely,
To be free is the only possession that counts.
I'm holding my hand out, I'm keeping my head high,
Trying to get out of mechanical nights,
When I get to the top of the clear, crystal mountain,
I'm going to stay up there as long as I can.
Dig in the sights all around,
Listen to all of the sounds and look down,
And look down,
And look down,
And look down,
Look down,
Look down,
Look down,
Hold on, I'm coming.

Oh No! Not My Baby
(gerry goffin / carole king)
When my friends told me
You had someone new
I didnt believe
A single word was true
I showed them all
I had a-faith in you
I just a-kept on saying
Oh no! not my baby
Oh no! not my sweet baby
Youre not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies
My mama told me when rumours spread
Theres truth somewhere and I should use my head
But I didnt listen to what she said
I kept a-right on saying
Oh no! not my baby
Oh no! not my sweet baby
Youre not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys
Well, you might have had a last-minute fling
But I am sure it didnt mean a thing
cause yesterday
You gave me your ring
And Im so glad that I kept on saying
Oh no! not my baby
Oh no! not my sweet baby
Youre not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys
Oh no! not my baby

Strange Pursuit
Intersecting love lines
Drew us closer every day
Always kept your distance
When you felt my presence near you
Love keeps on rolling over
Fly in retreat
I would follow without shame
A stupid spud staggering to the flame
To be had and rehad
Be a victim of the pain
Now its strange, its so strange
Its a strange pursuit
Its a strange pursuit
Its a strange pursuit
I come running like a fatboy
In lead shoes
But like a fatboy
Huff puffing after you
Its hopeless to hope for
The one thing that Im wanting
cause its strange
Its so very strange
Its a strange pursuit
Darling, Im dazzled
But you know Im too frazzled
Its a strange pursuit
Makin my mind up
While it lies in little pieces
Its a strange pursuit
You know its getting tough
When youre getting real rough
Its a strange pursuit
Darling, Im dazzled
But you know Im too frazzled
Its a strange pursuit
Makin my mind up
While it lies in little pieces
It s a strange pursuit

Need Your Spell
Down into the dark alley way,
Oh baby! I know not where to you walk,
I am so mesmerized by your looks
Oh baby! lead me lead me,
I am so lost in the sounds of your footsteps,
Enchanted by the hair that swishes,
Maybe you are taking me down,
Maybe I can never get back
From this dark dark dungeon
Heaven or hell
Oh baby! as you lead,
My soles they bleed,
Me, I am high, I am low,
Oh! darling please please
Never let me go,
Captivated by your eyes,
Baby baby you haunt me,
Lead me, lead me, I will follow
From heaven to hell,
I am at your mercy,
Baby baby take my heart,
And if you leave me down here,
Never to come back darling,
Please remember this soul
Needs your spell to
Come back to life again.

So Far Away
(carole king)
So far away
Doesnt anybody stay in one place anymore
It will be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesnt help to know that your just time away
Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh how I wish I could
But youre so far away
One more song about moving along the highway
I cant say much of anything thats new
But if I could only work this life out my way
Id rather spend it being close to you
But youre so far away
Doesnt anybody stay in one place anymore
It will be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesnt help to know youre so far away
So far away, yeah youre so far away
Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
And I sure hope the road dont get to own me
Theres so many dreams that Ive yet to find
But youre so far away
Doesnt anybody stay in one place anymore
It will be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesnt help to know
Youre so far away, youre so far away
Youre so far away, youre so far away
Oh I need to get in touch with ya baby
Youre so very, very, very far away
Youre so, so far away

Id like to dedicate this song to mother earth
Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I try to reach for you but you have closed your mind
What ever happened to our love? I wish I understood
It used to feel so nice, it used to be so good
So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me s.o.s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me s.o.s.
When youre gone, how can I even try to go on?
When youre gone, well I try, how can I carry on?
You seem so far away but you are standing nearer
You make me feel alive but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good
So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me s.o.s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me s.o.s.
When youre gone, how can I even try to go on?
When youre gone, ooh I try, how can I carry on?

Love Is Here & You Are Gone
Written & composed: brian holland, lamont dozier and eddie holland
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You persuaded me to love you
And I did
But instead of tendeness
I found heartache instead
Into your arms I fell
So unaware of the lonelyness
Thar was waiting there
Spoken :
You closed the door to your heart, girl
And you turned the key
Locked your love away from me
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You made me love you
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You said loving you
Would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love came
Into my heart
You turned and you walked
Just walked away
Spoken :
You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then you took my hope
Look at me now
Look at me
See what loving has done to me
Look at my face
See how cryin has left its trace
After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldnt keep
Spoken :
My heart cries out for your tuch
But baby, youre not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You made me love you
Oh oh my darling, now youre gone
Talking bout love, love, love, love,
Ooh ooh my darling, now youre gone

Pretending
Love is a flame that can't be tamed
And though we are its willing prey, my darling
We are not the ones to blame
Trust is a word all lovers know
The glorious art of staining souls, my darling
We are not the ones to blame
The more we have the more we want
And the more it hurts our hearts, my baby
It always ends up in tears
So keep on pretending
Our heaven is worth the waiting
Keep on pretending, it's alright
So keep on pretending
It will be the end of our craving
Keep on pretending
It's alright
When doubts arise the game begins
The one we will never win, my baby
It always ends up in tears
So keep on pretending
Our heaven is worth the waiting
Keep on pretending, it's alright

The Actor
The curtain rises on the scene
With someone shouting to be free
The play unfolds before my eyes
There stands the actor who is me
The sleeping hours takes us far
From traffic, telephones and fear
Put out your problems with the cat
Escape until a bell you hear
Our reasons are the same
But theres no-one we can blame
For theres nowhere we need go
And the only truth we know comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, oh, darling, youre almost part of me
Oh, oh, darling, youre all Ill ever see
Ah, ah, ah
Its such a rainy afternoon
No point in going anywhere
The sounds just drift across my room
I wish this feeling I could share
Its such a rainy afternoon
She sits and gazes from her window
Her mind tries to recall his face
The feeling deep inside her grows
Our reasons are the same
But theres no-one we can blame
For theres nowhere we need go
And the only truth we know comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, oh, darling, youre almost part of me
Oh, oh, darling, youre all Ill ever see

Oh, oh, darling, youre all Ill ever see
