Caravan Album

When doin' it all late at night
I feel a thousand faces
All lookin' at me pale and white
From most peculiar places

They keep tellin' me that my life
Tell me that my life could be better
If all I want is love

My hands are holding traffic jams
That's full of crazy ladies
All trying to get home at the same time
To feed full fats of babies

And all they want is life
All they want is life to get better
Cause they like them going for love
Yes I'm going for love – I'm taking arms

Stand, know what you can do
With all the running times you've given me
I don't wanna stay, going where I'm feeling even sure it's taking me
Why, you can see there's been a definite change in my eyes
Love, where are you, I'm needing you to keep me satisfied

So here am I, here am I

I never did ask what I might have been
When I could see their faces
I could have stayed home and got stuck right in
Or gone a million places

But then I wanted life
All I wanted was life to get better
So I could feel your love

So I could say to you
Know what you can do with everything
Loving all the same, be a pain
And still be what you need if you wanted to
Life it's through our love it's making all the change in my eyes
Love need no shove to keep the life I lead so satisfying

So here am I, here am I...

It's not very clear to me
Why we continue
I happened along just to see
If there's anything new
And I don't want to be the one to argue

If there's a part to play
I'll play it my way
And if you don't like what I say
My voice will just die away
I don't want to be the one to argue

Talking about chiefs and indians
And you really must agree
You've got to be a chief for one day
If you're an Indian for three
Talkin' bout dealin' with business
And lazy lethargy
I'll tell you a game you must play
And the name's diplomacy

Talkin' about making a fool of you
While you're makin' a fool of me
You've got no time to boogaloo
When you've got so many people to see
I'm talkin' about Chiefs and Indians
And lazy lethargy
You can take your false confidence
And stick it where nobody can see

It's not very clear to me
Why we continue
I happened along just to see
If there's anything new
And I don't want to be the one to argue

Though only 5'4, you could see he was a man among men
Kickin' him to the floor, right, his eyes would only water
Thankin' one once again you could hear him saying in that order now
Ease him while you can, start pickin' what you oughta

Some say he's a little crazy
'Bad Smell' is passing by
Maybe he's living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly

Standing not far away, you could see him with a finger up his nose
Can't bring myself to say what he's doing with the other
Twice in the afternoon he would come out with his head up in a cloud
Selling hot-air balloons to the people who could bother

His smile would send you senses reeling
From your toe jump to your head
And his breath would guarantee you see
That you would rather be dead

Though he may seem a little crazy
Distasteful to your eye
He may be living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly

Some said he's a little crazy
'Bad Smell' is passing by
He'll change the expression on your face
When you just see that boy fly...

[No lyrics]

For you I would change the day
Wrap it up and take it all away
Give the night to the morning
Let it ride on into the sky

You know you just came to see
Not what was right, but what was wrong with me
And I got strength from your feeling
When you smiled you'd pass me on by

Come on back, come on back
Lord knows I got a lack
Only when you come, you know that we'll be one
So come... back

With you, all the world would be
So small that you could hardly see
The amount of confusion
Leading all who'll pass life on by

Some time when you're feeling low
We can take the time to get up and go
From this world to another
By balloon I'll take you there, so...

Come on back, come on back
Lord knows I got a lack
Only when you come, you know that we'll be one
So come... back

He's an oik
What an oik

(repeat)

I'd lost all the breath within me
As I went up on the hill
When there she was, with a sad expression
Saying, oh my name is Jill
And I can't find how to get some water
Can you help me? Say you will!
For your time I will reward you
And you know I surely will

How could I refuse a lady
When she'd put it quite so well?
There was I in a situation
With no-one around to tell
So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell... down

Down – right down the bottom
Ooh ooh ooh – right down the bottom

I didn't mind spilling all the water
If I'd satisfied myself
There the time didn't really matter
It could have been somebody else
She would say I will reward you
And even thought it cost a crown
Now I find my life is sweeter
Every time I fall down...

So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell... fell... fell... fell...

Down – right down the bottom
Ooh ooh ooh – right down the bottom

Leaving all the days when I was right in your eyes
Through all these days of something better
Give it all you got, you've learned to try really try
Take it out of you more work on better

Don't let it grow, let it show
Let me know how you feel
Was ever a love in my life, it was you
I would hardly contrive to conceal

My surprise, didn't know when I would realize
Oh, oh I can't doubt with you, it's all right
Many times before I've turned my back on the days
Out of one of gold it turned to silver
So the time to choose had come when down in a haze
Given you and me a long forever

Don't let me down, don't you frown
You may drown in your tears
Was ever a time you won't mind
It was now, can you hear me, oh, can you hear?

Oh, all right, did say when I was passing by
Oh, only came by below recalling me

So can't you see
All the love you pay for you take forever?
Go slow, you could be
Something's always sometime what you ever

When it's going for me, I'm going to take what I like
When it's not I surely set for better
If I know I'm wrong I'm gonna make it all right
If it keeps you loving me forever

Don't let me down, don't you frown
You may drown in my fears
Was ever a time you won't mind
It was now, can you feel me, oh, can you feel?

Well if I say to you I could forget it
Believe it out of lying
Easy come, easy go my time had been
Until you came into my life

If I could do again I'd beg and borrow
For a second time around
But I wouldn't change my life by a single day
If I couldn't have you for dreaming of

Takin' it all the way
You and I, we had much better than before
Better than all after
Doin' it all the way
You and I, we had time for nothing more
Time to keep on loving, still...

In what you say, you'd never make a mountain
Though you sometimes disappear
Leaving me with all my own, so I could see
All the seed I'd planted could be grown

Diving in all the way
Must admit we had much better than before
Better than all after
Doin' it all the way
You and I we had time for nothing more
Time to keep on loving... till

All alone and ridin' home while you'd always find me there
Getting on, whatever comes into my mind while you'd always find me there
Oh-oh, if you got to be someone, let it shine on out of your eyes
Till the feeling gets to you so strong that you can open up the skies...

A year or so, the day it comes tomorrow
I saw you on the line
Between the worlds of fantasy and swollen girls
Never knew I'd see a better time

Takin' it all the way
You and I we had much better than before
Better then or after
Doin' it all the way
You and I we had time for nothing more
Time to keep on loving...
