Song of Joy, from the 1970's.

 

 

Loved the Joan Baez songs, it got me listening to her today. I miss how simple life was in the 70's....

That one really took me way back, Song of Joy.  Yes, the difference between then and now is quite remarkable, isn't it?  I, too, often pine for the simple life, more now than ever.

"Waves" - Dean Lewis

 

There is a swelling storm

And I’m caught up in the middle of it all

And it takes control

Of the person that I thought I was

The boy I used to know

 

But there is a light in the dark

And I feel its warmth in my hands

In my heart

Why can’t I hold on

 

It comes and goes in waves

It always does, always does

We watch as our young hearts fade

Into the flood, into the flood

 

[CHORUS:]

And freedom

And falling

The feeling I thought was set in stone

It slips through my fingers

Trying hard to let go

It comes and goes in waves

It comes and goes in waves

And carries us away

 

Through the wind, down to the place

We used to lay when we were kids

Memories of a stolen place

Caught in the silence

An echo lost in space

 

It comes and goes in waves

It always does, always does

We watch as our young hearts fade

Into the flood, into the flood

 

[CHORUS]

 

I watched my wild youth

Disappear in front of my eyes

Moments of magic and wonder

It seems so hard to find

 

Is it ever coming back again

Is it ever coming back again

Take me back to the feeling when

Everything was left to find

 

It comes and goes in waves

It always does, it always does

 

And freedom

And falling

The feeling I thought was set in stone

It slips through my fingers

Trying hard to let go

It comes and goes in waves

It comes and goes in waves

And carries us away

"Sparrow Song" - The Seekers

https://youtu.be/DHMwvVHKz7U

 

Fly little sparrow

High above the clouds

Looking for a place to

Lay your weary body down

 

Fly on little sparrow

Northward to the sun

Wonder if you'll ever

Find yourself a home

 

Tell me, little sparrow

Tell me, what do you see

I see a concrete canyon

Without a single tree

 

And it goes winding on forever

Where once proud rivers ran

Oh I hope that I can find

One truly happy man

 

Fly little sparrow

High above the clouds

Looking for a place to

Lay your weary body down

 

I seek a land of far horizons

Of gentle winds and summer rain

Where the children are not hungry

And they've put an end to pain

 

And I will sing a song of freedom

In the arms of a golden tree

Is there such a place on earth

For a tiny bird like me

 

Fly little sparrow

High above the clouds

Looking for a place to

Lay your weary body down 

 

Yes and fly on little sparrow

Northward to the sun

Wonder if you'll ever

Find yourself a home 

 

[[Lo...]]

Big Star - Thirteen

 

 

Won't you let me walk you home from school?

Won't you let me meet you at the pool?

Maybe Friday I can

Get tickets for the dance

And I'll take you, ooh ooh

 

Won't you tell your dad get off my back?

Tell him what we said 'bout Paint It Black

Rock and roll is here to stay

Come inside where it's okay

And I'll shake you, ooh ooh

 

Won't you tell me what you're thinking of?

Would you be an outlaw for my love?

If it's so, well let me know

If it's no, well I can go

I won't make you, ooh ooh

"I Cry at Night" - Elton John

 

This house that I live in has no reason

This house that I sleep in has no purpose

It has a bed and a few old chairs

Three flights up, two flights of stairs

But it has no reason

 

Then someone shot through the tire swing

The dogs barked and bayed in the winter and spring

And the ivy that hung now sadly clings

To a dying season

 

And I cry at night when the lights go out

And the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts

From road maps and red lines to lipstick lies

And when the lights go out it's tough to survive

 

This man holds a hand that shows a tremble

This man that I live in bears his faults

He has a heart and a well worn soul

Ten years a slave to rock and roll

But he has to tremble

 

For the yellow grass on the sunburnt lawn

Sleeps in her seeds from the sunset to dawn

And just like your love that's come and gone

It goes on breathing

 

And I cry at night when the lights go out

And the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts

From road maps and red lines to lipstick lies

And when the lights go out it's tough to survive

 

And when the lights go out it's tough to survive

"I Want To Live Again" - Trisha Yearwood

 

Kept my head in the sand so long 

It makes a heart real hard to find

I've had enough of a love gone wrong

To last a lifetime

 

But tear drops on a lonely night

Are never gonna make things right

I've got to get out

From under this cloud

 

[CHORUS:]

I want to live again

I want to laugh, I want to love

I want to roll those dice

Gonna run the risk

Do the dance, Take a chance

And let the heartache ride

I want to live again

 

Gonna pull the curtains back

And let a little moonlight in

Run around in a Cadillac

And feel the wheels spin

 

And when I set my spirit free

I know the past will rest in peace

I don't care what I face

Cause whatever it takes

 

[CHORUS]

 

Teardrops on a lonely night

Are never gonna make things right

I've got to get out

From under this cloud

 

I want to live again

I want to laugh, I want to love

I want to roll those dice

Gonna run the risk

Do the dance, Take a chance

And let the heartache ride

I want to live again

 

I want to live again

I want to live again

I want to live again

"Believe" - SAGA

 

 

http://files2.fatakat.com/2015/2/14239676576606.jpg

 

Talk to me

Tell me how it feels

To be misunderstood

 

Talk to me

Explain to me what life is like

Inside your world

 

But don’t worry, there’s no hurry

My impatience knows no fury

But don’t worry, there’s no hurry

Take your time, tell me when you’re ready

 

And come to me

And I will give and receive

All I need is for you to believe

 

Talk to me

When it feels as though

The walls are closing in

 

Talk to me

Day or night I understand

The shape you’re in

 

But don’t worry, there’s no hurry

My impatience knows no fury

So don’t worry, there’s no hurry

Take your time, tell me when you’re ready

 

And come to me

And I will give and receive

All I need is for you to believe

 

Come to me

I can help you feel free

Take my hand and understand

That I believe

 

All I need is for you to believe

All I need is for you to believe

All I need is for you to believe

Sonic Youth - Schizophrenia

 

 

 

I went away to see an old friend of mine

His sister came over, she was out of her mind

She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin

She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in

Her light eyes were dancing, she is insane

Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain

She keeps coming closer saying, "I can feel it in my bones

Schizophrenia is taking me home"

 

My future is static

It's already had it

I could tuck you in

And we can talk about it

I had a dream

And it split the scene

But I got a hunch

It's coming back to me

"Silver Lining"

 

David Gray

 

Bonnie Raitt

 

Take this silver lining

Keep it in your own sweet head

And shine it when the night is burning red

Shine it in the twilight

Shine it on the cold, cold ground

Shine it till these walls come tumbling down

 

[CHORUS:]

We were born with our eyes wide open

So alive with wild hope now

Can you tell me why

Time after time they drag you down

Down in the darkest deep

Fools and their madness all around

Know that the light don't sleep

 

Step into the silence

Take it in your own two hands

And scatter it like diamonds

All across these lands

Blaze it in the morning

Wear it like an iron skin

Only things worth living for

Are innocence and magic, amen

 

[CHORUS]

 

Time after time

They drag you down

Down in the darkness deep

Fools in their madness all around

Know that the light don't sleep

Know that the light don't sleep

"One Step Closer" - U2

 

I'm round the corner

From anything that's real

I'm across the road from hope

I'm under a bridge in a rip tide

That's taken everything I call my own

 

One step closer to knowing

One step closer to knowing

 

I'm on an island at a busy intersection

I can't go forward, I can't turn back

Can't see the future

It's getting away from me

I just watch the tail lights glowing

 

One step closer to knowing

One step closer to knowing

One step closer to knowing

Knowing, knowing

 

I'm hanging out to dry with my old clothes

Finger still red with the prick of an old rose

Well the heart that hurts

Is a heart that beats

Can you hear the drummer slowing

 

One step closer to knowing

One step closer to knowing

One step closer to knowing

To knowing, to knowing

"Fly Me High"

 

Moody Blues

https://youtu.be/Alz2Pz-q-Uw

 

Slade

 

I'm up to the eyes and I love everyone

Today I could cry I could reach for the sun

I'm walking on air and I'm here and I'm there

I travel the sky but for what I don't care

 

Fly me straight and fly me high

Fly me straight and fly me high

 

I'm up and I'm down and I'm gone, I'm around

I'm driving along with no wheels on the ground

Hang on to me tight cause it doesn't last long

A few hours more and it'll be gone

 

Fly me straight and fly me high

Fly me straight and fly me high

 

I leave you behind on the streets in the gloom

I'm up here alone and there's plenty of room

You won't see me, I'll see you, I'm too fast

Whoops, here I come, now I'm gone, now I'm past

 

Fly me straight and fly me high

Fly me straight and fly me high

 

I'm up to the eyes and I love everyone

Today I could cry I could reach for the sun

I'm walking on air and I'm here and I'm there

I travel the sky but for what I don't care

 

Fly me straight and fly me high

Fly me straight and fly me high

"All Kinds Of People" - Dionne Warwick

 

Tall kind of people should get together

With small kind of people

Should get together and talk to each other

All kinds of people should reach out

And help one another

 

Old kind of people should try to listen

To young kind of people

Should try to listen and comfort each other

All kinds of people should reach out

And help one another

 

Light kind of people should feel compassion

For dark kind of people

Should feel compassion and care for each other

All kinds of people should reach out

And help one another

(x2)

 

Hey, hey, help, one another, yeah

 

Reach out, oh, reach out

Hey, reach out

Oh, reach out and help one another

Reach out, oh, reach out

Hey, reach out

Reach out and help one another

"Have A Little Faith In Me"

 

John Hiatt                                                  Jon Bon Jovi                                                     Chaka Khan

        https://youtu.be/8UkKTlzyLhQ                https://youtu.be/1L-Cm5zbt9Q                        https://youtu.be/VVbdkdn3HKU

 

 

 

When the road gets dark

And you can no longer see

Just let my love throw a spark

And have a little faith in me

 

And when the tears you cry

Are all you can believe

Just give these loving arms a try

And have a little faith in me

 

[CHORUS:]

Have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me

 

When your secret heart

Cannot speak so easily

Come here, darling

From a whisper

Start to have a little faith in me

 

And when your back's against the wall

Just turn around and you will see

I will catch, I will catch your fall, baby

Just have a little faith in me

 

[CHORUS]

 

Well, I've been loving you for such a long time, girl

Expecting nothing in return

Just for you to have a little faith in me

You see time, time is our friend

Cause for us there is no end

 

And all you gotta do is have a little faith in me

I said I will hold you up, I will hold you up

Your love gives me strength enough

So have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me

" The Martyr"

John Paul White

 

 

" The Martyr"

 

Keep falling on your sword

Sink down a little more

You said it best

Nobody’s worth less than you

 

It’s really only fair

You get the lion’s share

You know the score

No one should hurt more than you

These are the words I’m hearing in my head

The ones that I deserve and should be said

So pile it on

My back is strong

Cause I’m the martyr

 

I’m riddled with holes

They never seem to close

The scars I bear, nobody put there but me

These are the words that I will not let heal

The ones that I deserve and seem so real

 

So bring it on

I’ll soldier on

Cause I’m the martyr

The martyr

 

I’ve honored those who just move on

They light it up, years gone

Well that ain’t me

Well that ain’t me

 

Cause I’m the martyr

The martyr

 

Keep falling on your sword

Sink down a little more

You said it best

Nobody’s worth less than you

" Clown"

Emeli Sande

 

 

"Clown"

 

I guess it's funnier from where you're standing

Cause from over here I missed the joke

Clear the way for my crash landing

I've done it again

Another number for your notes

 

I'd be smiling if I wasn't so desperate

I'd be patient if I had the time

I could stop and answer all of your questions

As soon as I find out

How I can move from the back of the line

 

I'll be your clown

Behind the glass

Go 'head and laugh

Cause it's funny

I would too if I saw me

I'll be your clown

On your favourite channel

My life's a circus circus

Round in circles

I'm selling out tonight

 

I'd be less angry if it was my decision

And the money was just rolling in

If I had more than my ambition

I'll have time for 'Please'

I'll have time for 'Thank you'

As soon as I win

 

 

From a distance my choice is simple

From a distance I can entertain

So you can see me

I put make-up on my face

But there's no way you can feel it

From so far away

" Off I Go"

Greg Laswell

 

 

"Off I Go"

 

Loose ends, they tangle down

And then take flight

But never tie me down

Never tie me down

 

Loose ends, they tangle down

And then take flight

But never tie me down

But never tie me down

 

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land

 

Loose ends tangle down

And then take flight

But never tie us

They never tie us down

 

Loose ends tangle down

And then take flight

But never tie us down

But never tie us down

 

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land

 

Ohhhh

 

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land

Off I go

Where I fall is where I land
