Hear they were the golden times
Captured all the hearts and minds
Oh how the memory shines

Keep shining, like diamonds

Say they were the best of times
Dancing till the big bell chimes
Oh how the memory shines
Like diamonds
Keep shining, keep shining
Shine away
Those were the days of (power? )
Sing yeah for the beatle and the stone

Some Days Are Diamonds

When you ask how i've been here without you
I like to say i've been fine and i do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if i told the truth, that's not quite true
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Now the face that i see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more i can see there's a danger
In becoming what i never thought i'd be
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

Hard Times
(by ray charles)
My mother told me
fore she passed away
Said son when Im gone
Dont forget to pray
cause therell be hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than i?
Well I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent
Talkin bout hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than i?
I had a woman
Who was always around
But when I lost my money
She put me down
Talkin bout hard times
Hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than i?
Lord, one of these days
Therell be no more sorrow
When I pass away
And no more hard times
No more hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than i?

Eyes Of Silver
Tom johnston
Eyes of silver hungry and aware
Eyes of silver, your mystic love I share
cause Im hungry baby
For the love you give away
Kick out all that stupid pride
Thats standin in my way
Inside my loving eyes are open wide
Eyes of silver, on which I shall rely
Diamonds are forever, and gold can make you lie
But your eyes of silver shine on, shine on
Blades of steel have helped a man to conquer all
Rubies by the hundreds fill the taj mahal
Eyes of silver, you tell me what I need
To bring this cold and lonely man
Down to his bended knees
Inside my lovin arms are open wide
For you eyes of silver
On which I shall rely
Diamonds and gold make you lie, lie, lie
But your eyes of silver, they shine on, shine on
Eyes of silver, baby, shine on, shine on
Baby, shining, yeah yeah, yeah, baby shining

Deserted Cities Of The Heart
By jack bruce and pete brown
Upon this street where time has died.
The golden treat you never tried.
In times of old, in days gone by.
If I could catch your dancing eye.
It was on the way,
On the road to dreams, yeah.
Now my hearts drowned in no love streams, yeah.
The street is cold, its trees are gone.
The storys told the dark has won.
Once we set sail to catch a star.
We had to fail, it was too far.
Chorus
I felt the wind shout like a drum.
You said, my friend, loves end has come.
It couldnt last, had to stop.
You drained it all to the last drop.
Chorus
Now my hearts drowned in no love streams, yeah.
On this dark street the sun is black.
The winter life is coming back.
On this dark street its cold inside.
Theres no retreat from time thats died.
It was on the way,
On the road to dreams, yeah.
Now my hearts drowned in no love streams, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now my hearts drowned in no love streams, yeah.
Now my hearts drowned in no love.

Ive Seen Better Days
The sun is shining down
Theres not one cloud around
Morning hits me
Where I lay
Everything was green
A perfect day it seems
Yeah hes got everything his way
Oh but Ive seen better days
Ive seen better days
Chorus:
When the rain was pouring down
And he had his loving arms wrapped around me
Ive seen better days
The neighbors come and go
They smile and wave hello
And all the kids are out to play
Lollipops and good times
They look so much like mine
But he has taken mine away
Oh and Ive seen better days

It's all around me
It must be magic
Yeah, yeah, yeah

In my mind
The lost time
That you're saving
I could reach out

What a day you had today
It took your smile away
I think we ought to get away
Let's run away
Take me out under the sky
Counting diamonds all through the night
And the moon in the morning light
Out under the sky
And it can happen any day
Everything goes astray
But the starts do us o.k.
Let's run away

Your Quick Shift In Mood Smells
Yeah. Yeah,
I'd like to be there where you are.
Yeah. yeah,
But there is something about your demeanor.
I would like to see you as a shining star.
But your complaints keep you falling too quick.
When you open your mouth...
There is an expectation,
That comes with it!
Yeah. Yeah,
I'd like to be there to cheer you on.
Yeah. Yeah,
But from sunset till dawn that magic has gone.
Yeah. Yeah,
Your presentation needs a tweaking.
You have the image...
But your attitude reeks!
And this you believe keeps you unique.
All you need is a streak in your hair,
To skunk.
You don't have to stink to chase me away!
Your quick shift in mood smells.

I Don't Think So
I Don't Think So
We've been through this time together
AlI in my mind the love was so alive
Oh I never wanted for another
Then I saw the beginnings of a Iie
Good times and the bad times
Through the good times and the bad times with me
Good times and the bad times
Yeah I wonder why I never see
Good times and the bad times
Oh maybe there was always something wrong
Good times and the bad times
Did l wait too long
Chorus:
You said you'd love me for all of your life
I don't think so
Through the best of the best and the worst of the times
I don't think so
You said the world was a beautiful place
l don't think so
You swore the love was perfectly sale
I don't think so
People can only stay together
If in their hearts they know they can say what's on their minds
Would you say
Good times and the bad times
If it can't really be then I gotta move on
Good times and the bad times
Is it really time
Chorus: (repeat)
Said the check's in the mail and the maiI's on time
I don't think so
Said out of touch ain't out of mind
I don't think so
Couldn't live without me, and that's a fact
I don't think so
Love is real and it's not an act
I don't think so
Come on
Good times and the bad times
I don't think so
Good times and the bad times
Baby our love was a beautiful thing
I don't think so
Good times and the bad times
You said you'd love me for all of your life
I don't think so
Good times and the bad times
Through the best of the best and the worst of times
I don't think so

It All Comes Down To Love
Straight shot of misery
Some days make a mess of me
I touch the ground when I can find my feet
You know it all comes down to love
I tell myself I can do it all
I juggle everything
I drop the ball
Sometimes it feels my life's impossible
But then it all comes down to
Love
I'd love to take you on a time machine
Fill those cracks things fall between
So we could find more days to fly away from the hurricane
But in the ebb and flow
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
The clock chimes
The babies cry
I turn around and they've grown so high
As I let 'em grow
I watch 'em fly
You know it all comes down to love
I light the candles and I cut the cake
Make a wish for every heart that breaks
Sweet forgiveness never made a mistake
You know it all comes down to
Love
I could love you 'till my heart's content
So you must be Heaven sent
The way you sweep me up in your arms in the middle of an argument
And you let me know
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love
Take you down to guts and the rubble
Diggin' up the deeper stuff
You gotta trust when you're runnin' into trouble
That it all comes down to
Love
Love
Love
Love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love

I am on my way, yeahhhh
Rain wont catch you and the wind wont blow
Where youre blowing no one knows it
Its all right now
Clouds are forming in the neon sky
You wonder how, you wonder why
I, I am on my way
If we knew the end what we started all
See the pride before the falling
Its over now
You cant break up what you cant break down
Life can sometimes spin you around
And I am on my way, I am on my way
cause my priority is no more you and me
The world will always turn beneath our feet, yeah
My philosophy is overtaking me
Theres nothing left to say
Theres nothing left to see
Theres a hole in your heart
When the rain gets in
So, you pull up your collar and you start again
And, I am on my way
I am on my way
My philosophy is overtaking me
Theres nothing left to say
Theres nothing left to see
You watch her leaving on the evening train
You know she wont be back again
And its all right now
There is no right
There is no wrong
You live your life keep moving on
And, I am on my way
I am on my way [3 times]
I am on my way, yeah [3 times]
