1. LADY LUCK

Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, a mastermind,
Or some lucky lady's design.

Oh, what the devil, it's fun,
His lady luck was his one companion,
And by the silver and gold,
His heart had been bought and bound.
But he chanced to fall in new love,
He kissed her and he cut the tie,
And kissed his lucky lady goodbye.

Oh, spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like you've been with me in life?
If I leave you for a lover,
Would you leave me far behind?

You should've known from the start,
She'd take no part in a love triangle.
You have to be her's alone,
And go it on your own.
'Cause if you've found a new love,
Lady Luck is gonna step aside.
So kiss your lucky lady goodbye.

Spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like you've been with me in life?
If I leave you for an hour,
Would you leave me far behind?

Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, was a mastermind,
Or some lucky lady's,
Or some jealous lady,
Kiss your lucky lady goodbye.
Don't pass this way again, goodbye.
Don't pass this way again, goodbye.


2. IF YOU BE WISE

See her candle,
Waver in the window of her summer night.
Lying on the breeze,
She tries to fall asleep.
Flights of fancy,
Dancing through her memories like Arabian Nights.
He is riding on his wings of fire,
And flies away.
She can still hear him say.

If you'll be wise,
If you'll be smart,
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don't let it start,
You'll think you're different from the rest.
You'll try to do your part,
Until he breaks your heart.

Lunch for the lonely,
Looking at picture postcards of someone else's scene.
Somehow they don't seem real,
The sea's too green.
Somebody calls her,
Giving out information,
About the boy on the moon.
Suddenly it's all too much,
To be told,
What she already knows.

If you'll be wise,
If you'll be smart,
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don't let it start,
'Cause you've been told too many times.

If you'll be wise,
If you'll be smart,
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don't let it start,
'Cause you've been told too many times.

If you'll be wise,
If you'll be smart,
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don't let it start,
'Cause when he comes and needs a friend,
He'll do it all again.

Better be smart,
He's breakin' your heart,
Find you another lover.
Better be wise,
And open your eyes,
This time.


3. I BELIEVE IN LOVR

I see faces!
Coverin' an empty 'I'
Empty spaces
Where there used to be a soul inside

Nothin' and no one ever gets to them
Seems the wind could blow right through them
Believin' in gods that never knew them
I believe in love

I believe in love, I do!
I believe I'm feelin' good
I'm feeling love!
(feeling love is feeling good)
I believe in love
Feeling love is feeling good!

Worry!
Climbin' up your money tree
You've got to hide it
Monkey do what the monkey see

You're on a one-way street and you're speedin'
Missin' the signs you should be readin'
That's the things you'll later be needin'
I believe in love

I believe it, nobody sold me
Always knew it, nobody told me
I believe in someone to hold me
I believe in love

I believe in love, I do!
I believe I'm feelin' good
I'm feeling love!
(feeling love is feeling good)
(feeling love is feeling good, I believe in love)
(feeling love is feeling good)
I believe in love
(feeling love is feeling good, I believe in love)
Feeling love is feeling good!
(I believe in love)
Feeling love is feeling good!
(I believe in love)

Oh, never be lonely!
Sleepin' in an empty bed
Shouldn't feel it, just a place to rest my head

But I don't want to find myself one day
Wakin' up and lookin' at Monday
With some 'whats-her-name' left from Sunday
I believe in love

I believe it, nobody sold me
Always knew it, nobody told me
I believe in someone to hold me
I believe in love

I believe in love, I do!
I believe I'm feelin' good
Everybody should!
I believe I'm feelin' good
Believe in it
Believe in, love!


4. SET IT FREE

I can see the rain,
Come into my room again.
Broken window pane,
Now reminds me I'm alive.

Could it be right,
Givin' up, my darlin'?
I'll wait for you now,
To remind me why I've gone.

How I love to write,
Songs that have no answers.
Oh, there's nothin' on my mind,
That I want to let go of.

Letting it go on pretendin',
Everything has its way of endin'.
And I'm a loner,
The way I should be.

Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
Can I be free?

Still it's gotta rain,
Wonder when I'll see a change in weather.
Somethin's gettin' tangled up again,
And I can't find an end.

Can't let it go on returnin',
I've given everything that the harlequin boy can find.
And I'm tired of trying,
I'd rather leave than tell lies.

Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
You'll be free.

You'll be free my love to fly,
Free to be what I can't face.
In love again,
Set it free.

Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.

Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.


5. WHY DO PEOPLE LIE

Why do people lie?
Lyin' only breaks their hearts,
And tears their lives apart,
Makin' 'em cry.
Tell me why.

Even if I try,
Even if I lie to little babe.
I know she'll never leave me,
She'll stay by my side.

Tell me why do the people say,
"She ain't lovin' you anyway.
So while you keep believin' it brother,
She'll keep makin' her time,
Right before your eyes."?
Tell me why they gotta lie.

When I looked I had to look again.
In my eyes a revelation.
In her arms the fascination,
Of a friend.

When I looked I had to look again.
In my eyes a revelation.
In her arms the fascination,
Of a friend.

Now I let 'em know,
When people say "I told you so.".
I say, "Learnin' don't come easy, baby.",
I've been makin' like a fool.

Tell me why,
Why is it true?
Why?
Tell me why do people lie?

Tell me why.
Why do they lie?
Oh, why do they lie?
Tell me, tell me why.
Why do people lie to me.
Somebody here is lyin' to me.
I just don't know whether to believe them,
Whether to give them an account,
To form a doubt, don't want to be counted out.
Follow your heart, babe,
Follow your heart, yeah,
Follow your heart, right on,
Follow your heart.


6. ENTER MY DREAM

Enter my dream, baby,
Enter my dream.

Jung river won't you stop for me awhile,
Hold me like a sleepy child,
And take me where I'm bound to be.

I'm walkin' on the wings of make-believe,
I'm livin' out the fantasy,
That I know well,
I've been visitin' there all my life.

'Cause you see,
Happiness finds me sleepin',
There I know I go beyond reality.
It'll be effortless and easy,
Somebody take me there.

I'm livin' in a dream, baby,
Livin' in a dream.

I'll play for you,
You'll play a tune for me.
A masterpiece of harmony,
That everybody here can do.

A hundred writers pass the words along,
And suddenly we've made a song.
That sounds sweet and clear,
Something every dreamer can hear.

And we sing,
Happiness finds me sleepin',
There I know I go beyond reality.
It'll be effortless and easy,
Somebody take me there.
I'm livin' in a...

Enter my dream.

You're waitin' for the wind to start to rise,
Well take a look, and close your eyes,
Away to a place every dreamer can share.

And that's where,
Happiness finds us sleepin',
There I know I go beyond reality.
It'll be effortless and easy,
Somebody take me there.
Somebody take me where,
We'll be livin' in a dream, baby,
Enter my dream.

8. CELEBRATE ME HOME

Home for the holidays,
I believe I've missed each and every face,
Come on and play my music,
Let's turn on every love light in the place

It's time I found myself,
Totally surrounded in your circles
Whoa, my friends

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That I'll always remember,
And I can recall,
Whenever I find myself too all alone,
I can sing me home.

Uneasy highway,
Traveling where the Westerly winds can fly,
Somebody tried to tell me,
But the man forgot to tell me why,

I gotta count on being gone,
Come on home, come on daddy,
Be what you want from me,
I'm this strong, I'll be weak

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That I'll always remember,
I can recall,
Whenever I find myself too all alone,
I can make believe I've never gone,
I never know where I belong,
Sing me home.

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song, y'all

Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate me home

Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home.

10. YOU DON’T KNOW ME

You give your hand to me
And then you say "hello".
And I can hardly speak,
My heart is beating so.
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well.
Well, you don't know me.

No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night,
And longs to kiss your lips,
And longs to hold you tight.
Oh I'm just a friend,
That's all I've ever been.
Cause you don't know me.

For I never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by,
A chance that you might love me too.

You give your hand to me,
And then you say "goodbye".
I watch you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you'll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don't know me.

For I never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by,
A chance that you might love me too.

Oh, you give your hand to me,
And then you say "goodbye".
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy.
Oh, you'll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don't know me.
