I know your eyes in the morning sun I feel you touch me in the pouring rain And the moment that you wander far from me I wanna feel you in my arms again And you come to me like a summer breeze Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave And it's me you need to show How Deep Is Your Love How deep is your love, How deep is your love I really need to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down When they all should let us be We belong to you and me I believe in you You know the door to my very soul You're the light in my deepest darkest hour You save me when I fall And you may not think That I care for you When you know down inside That I really do And it's me you need to show How Deep Is Your Love How deep is your love, How deep is your love I really need to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down When they all should let us be We belong to you and me And it's me you need to show How Deep Is Your Love How deep is your love, How deep is your love I really need to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down When they all should let us be We belong to you and me How deep is your love (is your love, how deep is your love) how deep is your love (is your love, how deep is your love) how deep is your love (is your love, how deep is your love)

Boy, close your eyes Let that rhythm get in to you Don't try to fight it There ain't nothin' that you can do Relax your mind Lay back and groove with mine You gotta feel that heat And we can ride the boogie Share that beat of love I wanna rock with you (all night) Dance you in to day (sunlight) I wanna rock with you (all night) We're gonna rock the night away Out on the floor There ain't nobody there but us Boy, when you dance There's a magic that must be love Let's take it slow, 'coz we got so far to go When you feel that heat And we're gonna ride the boogie Share that beat of love I wanna rock with you (all night) Dance you in to day (sunlight) I wanna rock with you (all night) We're gonna rock the night away And when that groove is dead and gone, yah You know that love survives And we can rock forever, ooooh I wanna rock with you, yah (all night) Dance you in to day (sunlight) I wanna rock with you (all night) We're gonna rock the night away I Wanna Rock With You, yah (all night) Dance you in to day (sunlight) I wanna rock with you (all night) We're gonna rock the night away I wanna rock with you I wanna rock with you (sunlight) I wanna rock with you (all night) We're gonna rock the night away I wanna rock with you, yah.

Blackbird 02:24
Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly, All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise. Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these sunken eyes and learn to see, All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free. Blackbird fly, blackbird fly, into the light of a dark black night. Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly, All your life... You were only waiting for this moment to arise You were only waiting for this moment to arise You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I've been waiting so long Somebody holds the key Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home Come down on your own and leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I've been waiting all these years Somebody holds the key In the end and I just ain't got the time And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home Well now, in the end when I just ain't got the time Oh, well I'm wasted and I can't find my way home Can't find, can't find, my way home (can't find my way) Can't find my way home Can't find, can't find, my way home (can't find my way) Can't find my way home Can't find, can't find, my way home (can't find my way) Can't find my way home

Border Song 03:11
Holy Moses I have been removed I have seen the specter he has been here too Distant cousin from down the line Brand of people who ain't my kind Holy Moses I have been removed Holy Moses I have been deceived Now the wind has changed direction and I'll have to leave Won't you please excuse my frankness but it's not my cup of tea Holy Moses I have been deceived I'm going back to the border Where my affairs, my affairs ain't abused I can't take any more bad water I've been poisoned from my head down to my shoes Holy Moses let us live in peace Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease There's a man over there what's his color I don't care He's my brother let us live in peace He's my brother let us live in peace He's my brother let us live in peace

Drive 04:28
Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear And I cant help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer It's driven me before, it seems to have a vague Haunting mass appeal Lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there With open arms and open eyes yeah Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there If I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive, oh oh It's driven me before, and it seems to be the way That everyone else get around Lately, I'm beginning to find that when I drive myself, my light is found Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there With open arms and open eyes yeah Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there Would you choose water over wine Hold the wheel and drive Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there With open arms and open eyes yeah Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there Toot toot doo....oh whoa..toot too doo... Toot toot doo...oh whoa...toot too doo...

Trashmen didn't get my trash today Oh, why? Because they want more pay Buses on strike want a raise in fare So they can help pollute the air But that's what makes the world go 'round The up and down, the carousel Changing people, they'll go around Go underground, young man People make the world go 'round Wall Street losin' dough on ev'ry share They're blaming it on longer hair Big men smokin' in their easy chairs On a fat cigar without a care But that's what makes the world go 'round The up and down, the carousel Changing people, they'll go around Go underground, young man People make the world go 'round (Instrumental break) But that's what makes the world go 'round The up and down, the carousel Changing people, they'll go around Go underground, young man People make the world go 'round People make the world go 'round People make the world go 'round People make the world go 'round

Turn down the lights; Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices Inside my head. Lay down with me; Tell me no lies. Just hold me close; Don't patronize. Don't patronize me. Chorus: 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. You can't make your heart feel Something it won't. Here in the dark In these final hours, I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power; But you won't. No, you won't. 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. I'll close my eyes, Then I won't see The love you don't feel When you're holding me. Morning will come, And I'll do what's right; Just give me till then To give up this fight. And I will give up this fight. [Chorus]
10.
Leaves were falling Just like embers In colors red and gold they set us on fire Burning just like a moonbeam in our eyes CHORUS Somebody said they saw me Swinging the world by the tail Bouncing over a white cloud. Killing the Blues I am guilty of something I hope you never do because there is nothing Sadder than losing yourself in love CHORUS CHORUS (SOLO) Now, you ask me Just to leave you To go out on my own and get what I need to You want me to find what I've already had CHORUS Somebody said they saw me Swinging the world by the tail Bouncing over a white cloud Killing the Blues
