Graham Nash Album

Late last night, did I dream?
Over the hill and far away,
they wanted to live in pleasure.
They wanted to live above
the plains, holier than thou,
banking on a cloud, never
coming down to earth and sky.

Did I dream, so late at night?
I saw dinosaurs and sabre tooth
gambling with the treasure.
Nobody home to tell the truth.
Holier than thou, banking on
a cloud, never coming down
to earth and sky.
Down to earth and sky.

I awake. I awake
I think I'm safe in my room.
All my fading dreams just
take a bow, they're bending before
the future, holier than thou.
Banking on a cloud, never
coming down to earth and sky.
Earth and sky. Earth and sky.
Earth and sky.

Love has come, and taken me, out of my mind
I've got so much to find out, so much to give out
So much to take in, and pass on again

The sun has come, awaking me, out of my dream
I've got someone to lean on, talk to and turn on
Talk to and turn on, love can find you, love can find you
You've got to be there
Love can find you, love can find you
You've got to be there, someone will care

You have come, fulfilling me, taking me over my head
All of my love is with you, part of my soul is in you
Taking me higher, love can find you, love can find you
You've got to be there
Love can find you, love can find you
You've got to be there, someone will care

The sky was full of diamonds,
some of them were falling.
The cloud came by and covered up the skyline.
Voices in the distance, I could swear
I heard them calling me,
taking me back to you behind
the tree-line. Out on the
island, it's such a beautiful island,
with the swaying trees and
the summer breeze, there is
only one place to be...out
on the island.

Someone saying
something, as we walk toward
the pier. The wind came
through and blew away the
moonlight. No one saying
nothing. I pretend I cannot
hear, but I'm hoping it all
comes true before the daylight.
Out on the island, it's such a beautiful island,
with the swaying trees and
the summer breeze, there is
only one place to be...out on...out on...

The sky was full of diamonds,
some of them were falling.
The cloud came by and covered up the skyline.
Voices in the distance, I could swear
I heard them calling me, (calling me)
taking me back to you behind
the tree-line. (Wooo!) Out on the
island, it's such a beautiful island,
with the swaying trees and
the summer breeze, there is
only one place to be...out
on the island.

And I feel good
I feel good, with the swaying trees
and the summer breeze, there is
only one place to be...

Skychild, on the day that we
met, you were eating in a
restaurant in a black velvet
suit. David told me I'd be
in trouble if I dared to take a
look. I took a look at you,
Skychild.

Skychild, remember
from the start, you were
always on my mind. We were
never far apart. But you really
made me nervous. You were
aiming at my heart. Right
on target, Skychild, Skychild.

Skychild, if you're ever back in town,
don't forget to look me up.
I'll be somewhere around,
picking up pieces and putting
them down. Where did you
go, Skychild? Skychild.

Open up your window just
enough to see me. Silver blade
above us take us up into the
air, flying. Open up your
window just enough to see you.
Sunlight on the silver, it could
be me, it could be you, flying.
So my life is in your hands
now. Thrill me at your beck
and call, screaming up and
down the canyons, falling over
waterfalls. Just enough to see
you, open up your window.
So my life is in your hands
now. Thrill me at your beck
and call, screaming up and
down the canyons, falling over
waterfalls. Just enough to
see you, open up your window.
Silver blade above us.

Hear it, hear it, hear it.
Hear it, hear it, hear it.
I can see the writing on the
wall. I can hear the axe before
it falls. I can really feel it
getting through to me. I can
see the sea begin to glow. I can
feel it leaking down below.
I can barely stand it, what
you're doing to me. And in
the morning, will you still feel
the same? How're you gonna
stop yourself from going
insane, with glowing children
and a barrel of pain? I don't
want to hear it no more, no.
I can see the heat begin to rise.
I can see the vapors in my
eyes. Any way you look at
this, it's hard to take. I can
feel my skin begin to peel.
I can see the dollar and the
deal. I can see the companies
that are on the make.
Yes they are.
And in the morning, will you still feel
the same? How're you gonna
stop yourself from going
insane, with glowing children
and a barrel of pain? I don't
want to hear it no more, no more.
And in the morning, will you still feel
the same? How're you gonna

I can barely stand it, what
you're doing to me, to me.
And in the morning, will you still feel
the same? How're you gonna
stop yourself from going
insane, with glowing children
and a barrel of pain? I don't
want to hear it, hear it, hear it.
Hear it, hear it, hear it.
I don't want to hear it,
I don't want to hear it,
No more no more hear it,
I don't want to hear it,
Think about the babies, hear it,
Think about the babies, hear it,
What about the children, hear it,
I don't want to, hear it,
I don't want to, hear it,
No more pain oh no, hear it,
I don't want, hear it,
No no no no more, hear it,
I just don't want to, hear it,
I don't want to, hear it.

Did you ever wonder why
there are cameras in the sky?
I can see them all on high,
looking at the people. Did you
ever wonder when they'll
come and take you in
again? Well, they've been
listening on your line, looking
through your T.V. And the
ghost of George Orwell is
turning in his grave. Is everybody
a slave? Did you ever
wonder why there are blinders
on your eyes? But they're
a blessing in disguise. Check
the T.V. Guide.

When I see you beside me,
smiling at me, I feel warm deep
inside me, 'cause I think I
love you. When I feel you
surrounding me, making me
strong, I've got warm glow
around me, Because I think
I love you, and it's all right, all
right. Needless to say,
I feel all right, all right. I'll be here
when you awake. Looking
down the roadway, tell you
what I see, lots of lonely
heartaches, lots of feeling blue.
Looking up the roadway,
tell you what I see. I see you.
So it's all right, all right.
Needless to say,
I feel all right, all right. I'll be here
when you awake.
Looking down the roadway, tell you
what I see, there's lots of lonely

'Cause when I see you beside me,
smiling at me, I feel warm deep
inside me, 'cause I think I
love you. Yes I do.
And it's all right, all right,
needless to say. I feel all right.
I'll be here when you awake.
And it's all right, all right,
needless to say. I feel all right.
I'll be here when you awake.

As I lie beside you, feeling the life that we made with our souls
Nothing like this ever happened to me
I seem to react to a vague memory
This is the way that she said it could be
Having a magical child
As I stand before you, watching the love turn around in my eye
I've waited for so long for someone to care
I've waited for so long for someone aware
I've waited for so long for someone to share
Having a magical child
Really makes me wonder why I waited for so long to
Bring another life to this place
Then I finally realised I was watching myself grow up
Can you not see it in his face, your face
Really makes me wonder why I waited for so long to
Bring another life to this place
Then I finally realised I was watching myself grow up
Can you not see it in his face, my face
As I lie beside you, feeling the life that we made with our souls
Nothing like this ever happened to me
I seem to be reacting to a vague memory
This is the way that she said it could be
Having a magical child, child, child

Tired of working, it's going too
slow, you just had to be there,
but you hated to go, down
to the job, where it all feels the
same, thousands of people
looking for someone to blame.
You and me have got to decide.
We'll be lucky if we survive,
in the 80's, we must come alive.
You're part of the country,
so you put in your claim, they
take your identity and they give
you a name. They hand you
a number and they tell you
to wait. They ask you to come
inside while they're closing
the gate. You and me have got
to decide. 'Cause we'll be lucky
if we survive, in the 80's, we
must come alive. You and me we've got
to decide. 'Cause we'll be lucky
if we survive, in the 80's, we
must come alive. Tired of
working, it's going too slow, you
just had to be there, but you
hated to go, down to the job,
where it all feels the same,
thousands of people who are
playing their games. You and me have got
to decide. 'Cause we'll be lucky
if we survive, in the 80's, we
must come alive. Come alive.
Come alive. (Woo woo.) Come alive.
Come alive. Come alive. (Woo woo.)
Come alive. Come alive.
