1. SHE FLIES ON STRANGE WINGS, PART I

Lonely is the night without you
Just as lonely as the shepherd without sheep
And where flies the falcon,
In the high sweet air
Without hunting this Sprane Valleys deer

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

She takes off when she desires
Silence grows on her lips
She can bring you so much higher
She spreads love on all her trips, yeah

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Woke up this morning
And this feeling came to my head
To fly with her from sky to sky
'Cause my mind seemed to be dead
So I floated up towards her
On my mutilated wings
But all the blackness sings against me now
It's the lady of the strange wings

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange...

3. MURDOCK 9-6182

Do you remember how she was looking
The day she left me on my own
Oh lord, you know how she could rock me
And you know she won't be coming home

Do you remember how she was looking
The first time we saw her nude
Cause nobody had ever seen her peach-skin
Well I just want her back, oh I just want her back

So, I hang on, hang on, hang on now
Call her number any day, any hour
Mixed up in a facer and I'm feeling blue
While I'm calling Murdock 9-6182

Na, na, na....na, na, na

Do you remember, I called you Queen Eliza
And then you smiled and ran out the door
Came back when I was sitting on the sofa
And gave me the things where I was longing for

Do you remember how you were looking
The day I came home and found out the score
The well known reason it ain't no use to mention
Well I just want you back, oh I just want you back

So, I hang on, hang on, hang on now
Call your number, any day, any hour
Mixed up in a facer and I'm feeling blue
While I'm calling Murdock 9-6182


4. THIS IS THE TIME OF THE YEAR

This is the time of the year
That love is coming unexpectedly
Knocking on your door, begging to come in
Baby won't you spread your wings
Won't you come on down and follow me

And if you do, you're like an arrow
And I'm the only bow
Baby, baby, and I can shoot you higher
Than you would ever go

This is the time of the year [4x]

Thinking about you baby, baby baby
I see mountains flying
I hear dark woods sighing
My love is getting higher
Won't you come on down and follow me

This is the time of the year
And I dance with you on a silver string
And after feeling music
We both blink into the world
And I'm the only man
That could ever reach you

This is the time of the year (4x)


5. LANDING

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
It's time for your mind to play a game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for a hand that must be there
You know how it fools you
And you know how it is
To be one of those people
Who don't know what they miss
You can hide away from reality
And escape

Yesterday I felt it
And the first thing I thought
Never let go
I held it as close as I could
When it didn't grow like it should
And then, after hours, I opened my head
I found myself back on the floor near my bed
Nothing has changed, it was all the same again
The same again

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
It's time for your mind to play a game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for a hand that must be there
You know how it fools you
And you know how it is
To be one of those people
Who don't know what they miss
You can hide away from reality
But you can't escape


6. ANOTHER 45 MILES

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home, to my child, my wife

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son

Clouds in the sky
Gathering for a fight
Chasing their prey till it can't go on
I mend my pace 'cos my bride is waiting home

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son


7. BUDDY JOE

Let me tell you about Buddy Joe
When he came down from Mexico
With his pockets full of gold
With his pockets full of gold

Have you something to declare
Are you sure there's nothing there
'Cos if there is, don't say
You've not been told

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
Well, I don't really know

Well Buddy Joe searched all his life
Through Mexico, all the riversides
Not for the money, but for the gold
He needs to hold

Well Buddy Joe was proud as he was
Could not stand all the fuss
When they got to all his gold
He was ready to go

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know

Well you'll understand he didn't stand a chance
Everybody was shouting commands
When Buddy Joe split in a hurry
He was ready to be buried

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know


8. HOLY HOLY LIFE

In bad times when it's dark and cold
You got no place to rest your soul
There's laughter behind your backs
Then it seems the devil rules the deck

Nothin' seems easy these days
Or do I see it in a different way
The world is spinnin', well that's OK
Tell me baby what's the price we pay

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
The sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Why don't you take me down to a rabbit hole
Where a man of peace can hide his soul
Thinkin' about pollution and a birth-control
Better talk to the rabbits, it's somebody's fault

Or maybe sometimes I'm pessimistic
And maybe it ain't so bad, it ain't so sick
I know I'm not the man of constant sorrow
And tell me is it the path of evil to follow

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
Or sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy, holy, holy


9. WHERE WILL I BE

Where will I be
When the sun won't shine anymore
Where will I be
When the moon won't smile anymore
Where will I be, where will I be

Maybe there's a place to hide from the frost
A place where life can get lost
Until then the end is near
And the skies will never be clear

Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying

Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Now, where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying
Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm
Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Where will I be


10. JESSICA

Jessica, welcome home my lady
Five years gone my lady
Oh how i missed ya

Remember how we did shine
Stepping out of line
You left all day long

What's wrong
What did they do to my babe
Somehow she's not the same
Jessie i used to know(?)
Jessie i knew you so well

Do me
Do me like you did yeah
Roll me downhill yeah
Lead me through your river

What's wrong
What happened to my babe
Cant be that much of a change
Jessica prove me i'm wrong

You were my world
You had the colors
You were the pearl
That overshadowed the others

Over

Five years gone indeed

Baby i missed ya

11. IN MY HOUSE

In my house
There is anything you need
In my house, yeah baby
You don't have to wipe your feet
In my house
You will see that good times come
In my house, baby
You will see here I belong

And someday you'll gonna be happy
And someday you will feel fine
And someday you'll gonna be happy
And someday you will be mine

In my place
There is nobody who cares
By the way you walk
By the way you hang your hair
In my place, darling
You will really see the sun
Please come over to my house
Don't waste time, you'd better run

And someday you'll gonna be happy
And someday you will feel fine
And someday you'll gonna be happy
And someday you will be mine


12. PLEASE GO

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why
Now I am thinking what the reason could be
You said you got no other love, was it a lie to me
You know I'd really die if I should see
You're making love to a man, no matter who you'll be

Listen baby, you can't imagine what happens to me now
You said you wanna be free like other people always told me before
And so if you won't hurt me
Don't stay in this place where our love started
I ask you, I ask you now

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why
Now I am thinking what the reason could be
You said you got no other love, was it a lie to me
You know I'd really die if I should see
You're making love to a man, no matter who

I said please go home now
Before tears come from my eye
I guess you said that I
I should know, oh no, oh no

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why
