Laura Nyro Album

“hello?�? / he said , “hello?�?

“I'd like to see you�? / he said “ sweetheart look
you know what happens when we get together
I mean I've heard of liberation , but sweetheart -- you're in outer space"

Oh , Mister Blue
I've been studying the radar in the sky
I can almost run , fly
listen like the animals do , I'm ready to meet the crew
Yes, I'm ready for you

Earth calling you
I've been a gypsy fire , warm desire
you've seen this too
Roger and out Mr. Blue

this is the song of communications
sending out peace vibrations , genuine cause to end our wars
or is this the song of complications?
a hopeless declaration? Can we mend , transcend
the broken dishes of our love? Our conflicts? Can we be friends?

“hello?�? / he said "hello?"
“this is your co - pilot�? / he said “yeah - look sweetheart
I've loved you - but you can be so arrogant ,
and you don't know anything about being cool….�?

Oh Mister Blue , I've been studying the radar in the sky
measuring earth and time
the rainbows on your pillow are new ,
I'm a fucking mad scientist too
baby, baby let the one who loves you come thru ...
baby come thru...baby come thru...
Earth calling.. you...
baby come thru...baby come thru...
Earth calling....
this is the song of communications
(baby come thru...) written on a peace vibration
(baby come thru...) Earth calling...
(Is this the song of complications?)
Earth calling , calling calling calling you
Oh Mr Blue , oh Mr Blue

[No lyrics]

innocence, my innocence comes from my mother
innocence, my innocence comes from my warm, earth mother
earth under my feet splits in the sun
the nest blows away and the sweet summer days die young.

i look for the man with the indian hair
i look for his hand but it isn't there
in our room tonight
sharing the moon to fight the pain.

innocence, my innocence is a wild thing
innocence, my innocence
unknown future it's me and you now
unknown moon floating past her
mother earth, are you hiding in the laughter
of my innocence.

Gypsy man

The river has seen

Our lost melodies

With their notes so warm

Moon banjo

Down a river in the breeze

He was singin'

Catfish blues

Split apart

Shot through the heart

Why did you make me feel this

Need?

Crazy love, my name is in your

Blood

And what your true love's done

To me

You blew through my life

Some fleeting years ago

From the midwest plains and

Rivers

To find the peace to grow

I was burning

And you walked soft

Talked soft

Like an animal

On silent feet

On a block of snow

You were looking for a true love

To light the way

But it's all gone

With your deer's eyes

And your ways of steel

You could travel miles and miles

In a blind reel

But I'd know you, crazy love

And turn my foolish heart away

Oh, my lover

Father of my unborn star

I may ache behind your snake-cold

Back

But my will is as strong as you

Are

With your deer's eyes

I know so well

Your ways of steel

I wonder if I ever knew you?

Crazy love, it's a crazy love

I'm empty from your weakness

Pregnant with the knowledge

And the flame of your true love

Autumn's child is catchin' hell

For having been too naïve to tell

Property rights from chapel bells

"there's nothing we can do

We could not get there in time

It's too late

She signed on the dotted line"

Oh, shoot 'em up

Cops and robbers

Oh, America

The manager smiled

He said, "we're gonna straighten

This mess"

He had a picture of Spot

And Jane on his desk

So I signed his strange contract

With the transparent lines

"there's nothing we can do

We could not get there in time

It's too late

She signed on the dotted line"

Oh, shoot 'em up

Cops and robbers

Oh, America

The lawyers cried

Through the telephone rings

The doctors sighed

"she's imagining things"

When he came through the window

With those crazy eyes

Dick Tracy in disguise

He said, "you need a guiding

Hand

You're soft and you're fine

Sign here on the dotted line"

Oh, big deals

Cops and robbers

Oh, America

I am your rose

American dreamer

Flyin' high

And down through America

Didn't you know

American dreamer

Flyin' high

And down through America

America

America

I've been waiting a clock on the wall
Still
Everytime that I see your face
It's like a warm embrace
That's all

And I've been waiting baby
To set my soul free
Still Baby
Everytime that I see your face
It's like a warm embrace
To me

Maybe it's the spring night blowing
Thru the pines and the amber gem
All my life I'm searching
For celestial harmony
Oh, pretty baby love me again
And again and again

I worry
Worry maybe
I'm calling your name
You know
Seeds of our baby

Spring song
Am I weak or strong ?
A rose is pressing
Thru a clock on the wall
I can't wait too long
Everytime that I see your face
It's like a warm embrace
To me, to me
Everytime... anytime... anytime
Moonshine... sunshine... anytime

Oh Star
shine on me

I'm just a grain in the universe
I come from the Earth
and the Earth is a grain
in the galaxy

can you send some peace on Earth
to a child of the universe
to a child of the universe

Oh Sun
there are planets at the top of the world
and hills and pastures under my feet
rocks and fish and worlds I may never see

I only live on Earth
I guess I'm just a child of the universe
I guess I'm just a child of the universe

Oh Moon
I saw your light on
it was getting late

can we talk awhile
you see I lost my smile
I just can't cope
I just can't relate

if you send some peace on Earth
send it to a child of the universe
send it to a child of the universe
to a child in a universe
send it to a child in a universe
to young children
