welcome my friends
to a place that may seem
most disturbing
quite unnerving
lend me your dreams
and we'll add what we need
to be free
terminally
we'll fly to a spot
where I know there is not
any sorrow
no tomorrow
people just laugh
cause they know how it feels
to have loved
and be loved
don't you worry
ain't no need to hurry
all you really need
is love
bah bah bah bah bah
now you may say
tell me more of this place
so inviting
and exciting
here and above
children love with the dove
and can be
they can be
listen my friends
carefully to direction
to get there
and you know where
love is the place
skewed to matter and space
for us all
for us all
don't you worry
ain't no need to hurry
all you really need
is love, love, love
. . .

Lady, when you're with me I'm smiling
Give me all your love
Your hands build me up when I'm sinking
Touch me and my troubles all fade
Lady, from the moment I saw you
Standing all alone
You gave all the love that I needed
So shy, like a child who has grown
'Cause you're my lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady
Lady, turns me on when I'm lonely
Show me all your charm
Evenings when you lay down beside me
Take me gently into your arms
Lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady
Lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my ... lady

woke up in rainy autumn
morning mist beginning to wane
and the birds of the winged trees
calling my name
care less the clouds above me
the wind is gently lifting my hair
where the rivers of the wind fall light rain
now stand bare
listen to the flowing streams
golden in the shelter of my dreams
playing a song on the meadow that echoes with love
walk alone through the garden
the leaves are wet with morning's tear
and the whispering of someone
is drawing me near
content to rest awhile
pondering the motion of time
over unforgotten memories
dipped in wine
listen to the flowing streams
golden in the shelter of my dreams
playing a song on the meadow that echoes with love
[extended instrumental solos]
the god of dusk is falling around me
the night air now restless and dank
yet the fields are specked with flowers
few and rank
moon reflecting off the water
rippling an image to me
of the way that it is
and the way that it's going to be
listen to the flowing streams
golden in the shelter of my dreams
playing a song on the meadow that echoes with love
. . .

I met a little girl sittin' in the front
Pardon me miss for seeming quite so blunt
But your beauty and your presence
Just took me by surprise
She said there's a meaning in my sexy stare
But that's my old man that's sittin' over there
And that's not the look of love that he's got for you in his eyes
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
I took her home and we was doing nip and tuck
How was I to know that I was out of luck
And before I knew it, the devil took my soul
In two weeks time it seemed to be the steady con
She told me "you're about to be a papa, John"
And I just looked around and tried to crawl into the nearest hole
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
Well, in two more weeks I started feelin' sore
I found myself waiting at my doctor's door
He said, "son I'm sorry but I've got some slightly less than tragic news
"Yeah, it seems you've been sociable with certain she's
Cause you've contracted what we call a social disease
And next time you better ask and use it, no don't refuse"
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what you've gotta do
There's no one else to blame but you
Nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask

father
you're a sad old man
your tawdry vest is gray
memories
of a former man
are all your words convey
father
oh can't you see
the tarnished robe you wear
a crown
for fools
the people laugh
you never seem to hear
father
you're life's a ship
that's never been to sea
the bottle
that surrounds your life
you'll sail eternally
[keyboard solo]
children
please understand
a man must stand alone
and face a world
he'll never know
and never call his own
ba ba bum bum
[continue echo]
father
[continue echo]

Album: STYX II
oh oh oh oh oh
penny pitching on the walk
waiting for the bus to arrive
me and Davy playing sport
watching for the cops to go by
spider man and the human torch
they cover Barney's newsstand
morning crowds start to gather round
fast finger steals what he can
morning leaves for the afternoon
the boys show up on time
in the streets near the people's store
below the electrical sign
catch a glimpse of a passing car
raced and ready to drag
then the skirts start to tantalize
the boys how they boast and they brag
oh the earl of Roseland
oh the earl of Roseland
where has he gone?
a memory at dawn
you're just a bit of the past
[guitar solo]
oh oh oh oh
oh the earl of Roseland
oh the earl of Roseland
me and Davy gazing back
see ourselves as we were
how we laugh when we think of things
that we did yesteryear
I can see Charlie on the porch
Johnny clicking his sticks
and two boys I don't even know
rehearsing electric string tricks
ya ya ya ya ya ya
oh the earl of Roseland
[Repeat and fade]

Album: STYX II
every day I get the feeling
when you move on down the street
wondering when I'll be your lover
and you'll make my dream complete
the way you walk is so inviting
that I quiver and I shake
the way you move it makes me wonder
how much more can I take
I'm gonna make you feel it
basically that's what I say
I'm gonna make you feel it
cause you want it just that way
every time that we're together
my head starts to rock and roll
I get this strange electric feeling
that I simply can't control
I'm gonna make you feel it
basically that's what I say
I'm gonna make you feel it
cause you want it just that way
[guitar solo]
I'm gonna make you feel it
I'm gonna make you feel it
I'm gonna make you feel it

Album: Man Of Miracles
Where am I going
How do I get there
What should I bring along
Are people kind there
Is peace of mind there
Will I finally belong
Cause you know ships sail their courses
And heroes ride horses
They know where they belong
But I travel in circles
Quickly to nowhere
Singing my unfinished song
Some poets say that
There'll come a day that
I'll find a place for me
Why aren't I there yet
Why can't I share yet
Why can't my heart be free
Cause you know ships sail their courses
And heroes ride horses
They know where they belong
But I travel in circles
Quickly to nowhere
Singing my unfinished song
