One year, two years, time goes by.People laugh and people cry.
Ev'ry morning the clock strikes eight.I go to work. I close the gate.And on my way, I sing a song.About my wife, where I belong.
If the clouds get together and talk about the weatherIf it's rain they anticipateBaby make no mistakeYes the storm will break but never me you see.
Two years on . two years on .But only you can see me.Only you can see me.

For what I've gotSir lancelot was just a dream and I am notFor I am he with something moreIt's you and I reality.
If the cloud get together and talk about the weatherIf it's rain they anticipateBaby, make no mistakeYes the storm will break but never me you see
Two years on . two years on .But only you can see meOnly you can see meTwo years on . two years on .Ah....

. . .


Summers come and summers go
But I still need the rain
All your vines will overgrow
and winds will blow insane

But I'm not goin' to move
And I won't make you cry
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why

Friends will come and friends will go
But you stay on my train
All your wines will overflow
As winds will blow insane

But I'm not goin' to move
And I won't make you cry
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why (rpt last 2 lines and f/out)

Everybody wants to leave
Just like you and I
I have all year to smile
A tear for every eye

Life closed its eyes, broke my world, now I cry
Ive got to tell you, Ive got the reasons
cause Im a man, a man for all seasons, alive

And would I pray
What makes the world go round
I havent got today
My mind is lost and found

Life closed its eyes and said goodbye, now I cry
But Ive got to tell you, Ive got my reasons
cause Im a man, a man for all seasons, alive
And would I pray what makes the world go round
I havent got today, my mind is lost and found
Du du du du du du du

Im a man for all seasons
Im a man for all seasons
Im a man for all seasons
Im a man for all seasons

George was born somewhere inside London town
Working as he grew for that extra pound.
Respected by all he married and made a home.
To give his children more then he had known.

But then he died with out an explanation.
He never lied , a very sincere relation.

Years before a fire sent him in the street.
It took him months of work to make ends meet.

But then he died without and explanation.
He never lied , a very sincere relation .

Took a plane to Cairo
Then a Cessna to Rome
I got hijacked to Tel Aviv
And it's the first time that I've flown

But I've found my Shangri-la
In a place that's not too far , back home

Took a train to Jordan
And to Texas and back
I met Lyndon B. Johnson and I felt his hand on my back

But I found my Shangri-la
In a place that's not too far, back home

Back home, back home,
back home, back home,
back home, back home
(repeat back home and fade)

. . .


I ain't got no claim to nothing.
I don't mess with anyone.
I walk my way living in a masquerade.
And one day I looked behind me at all the things I've done.
That's the 1st mistake I ever made.

I was born to a lonely women in a town called Buffalo.
Never knew the man who never stayed.
With my 12-string on my back I discovered every track.
That's the 1st mistake I ever made.

With a million hearts I've broken.
I never kept the score.
Memories of good love hate to stay.
But I still remember someone who loved me so much more.
That's the 1st mistake I ever made.

So, when nothing's worth the living and in the night I look above.
Prayed, about a million times I prayed.
I know my story ended when I lost my only love.
That's the 1st mistake I ever made.

I was born to a lonely women in a town called Buffalo.
Never knew the man who never stayed.
With my 12-string on my back I discovered every track.
That's the 1st mistake I ever made.

Good morning mister sunshine
You brighten up my day
Come sit beside me in your way

I see you every morning
Outside the restaurant
The music plays so nonchalant

Lonely days, lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?
Lonely days, lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?

Good morning mister sunshine
You brighten up my day
Come sit beside me in your way

Lonely days, lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?
Lonely days, lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?

. . .


'Leaving' that's all you ever seem to say and I'm tired
The wants you have me for have expired
Sleeping and reading ev'ry book I can find to get my mind off
In all I was a soul you were using
I am alone again
You can't believe the tears that I've shed
I'm on a bound down train
Don't desert me now or I am dead

People , the sun is going down on your heads so read your paper
There's no one there for you to confide in
It's instinct to always to have a shoulder to cry on
And to rely on
Someone there to share and to shine on
I am alone again
You can't believe the tears that I've shed
I'm on a bound down train
Don't desert me now or I am dead

I am alone again
You can't believe the tears that I've shed
I'm on a bound down train
Don't desert me down or I am dead

repeat last verse and fade

. . .


If you think that you can hurt me and make my cry
Tell me why, tell me why , tell me why

And if you think that you can hurt me with lies that cry
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

Now I've got my reasons for feeling this way
Day after day and as nights go by

So, if you think my heart is broken and I might die


Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

All of the world is as lonely as me
Day after day and as nights go by

So if you think my heart is broken and I might die
Tell me why, tell me why , tell me why

Tell me why , tell me why, tell me why

. . .


Don't you drink with me 'cos you know that I'm a loser.
And I'm proud of that fact as you can plainly see.
Never did what people said. I should've.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.

I spend my life working up a sweat to be a bad boy.
Getting girls into trouble ev'ry day.
Going from town to town . Now I tell you I've been around.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.

Lay it on me .. yeah...

Don't you drink with me 'cos I tell you that I'm a loser.
And I'm proud of that fact as you can plainly see.
Going from town to town. Now I tell you I 've been around.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.
I'm just a low down critter who never did any good.

When I was 10 years old, my parents were poor
Our house was so cold
And I was still in school and learning
And then I never really got too far
And ev'ryone we knew had money
And driving a car, and driving a car

Now I'm twenty-one
The street where I lived is blown up and gone
And I've had a good day crying
And the world around has changed alot
I never really gave much more
Much more then I got, much more then I got
