1. BUDDY JOE

Let me tell you about Buddy Joe
When he came down from Mexico
With his pockets full of gold
With his pockets full of gold

Have you something to declare
Are you sure there's nothing there
'Cos if there is, don't say
You've not been told

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
Well, I don't really know

Well Buddy Joe searched all his life
Through Mexico, all the riversides
Not for the money, but for the gold
He needs to hold

Well Buddy Joe was proud as he was
Could not stand all the fuss
When they got to all his gold
He was ready to go

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know

Well you'll understand he didn't stand a chance
Everybody was shouting commands
When Buddy Joe split in a hurry
He was ready to be buried

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know


2. SHE FLIES ON STRANGE WINGS, PART 1

Lonely is the night without you
Just as lonely as a shapperd without sheep
And where flies the falcon,
In the high sweet air
Without hunting in the Sprane Valleys deer

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

(Chorus)
She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

She takes off when she desires
Silence grows on her lips
She can bring you so much higher
She spreads love on all her trips, yeah

(Chorus)

Woke up this morning
And this feeling came to my head
To fly with her from sky to sky
ÂÂ'Cause my mind seemed to be dead
So I floated up towards her
On my mutilated wings
But all the blackness sings against me now
It's the lady of the strange wings

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

(Chorus)


3. THIS IS THE TIME OF THE YEAR

This is the time of the year
That love is coming unexpectedly
Knocking on your door, begging to come in
Baby won't you spread your wings
Won't you come on down and follow me

And if you do, you're like an arrow
And I'm the only bow
Baby, baby, and I can shoot you higher
Than you would ever go

This is the time of the year (4x)

Thinking about you baby, baby baby
I see mountains flying
I hear dark woods sighing
My love is getting higher
Won't you come on down and follow me

This is the time of the year
And I dance with you on a silver string
And after feeling music
We both blink into the world
And I'm the only man
That could ever reach you

This is the time of the year (4x)


4. GIPSY RHAPSODY

We yearned from the fire till morning and then we fall down
Falling asleep, a-hearing no sound
Just let me sleep, oh gipsy guitar
Loved all the food in dishes, in silver and gold
And some of their wishes are looking sincere
Waiting for you, waiting for me

And the air is covered in haze that drips on the wall
And if you look into the crystal ball
You should be happy to see me happy, oh yeah

Look around, come on and join me
Oh, play around, come on and join me
Play around, come on and tell me
You got no time for pleasure at all

And the air is covered in haze that drips on the wall
And if you look into the crystal ball
You should be happy to see me happy, oh yeah

Look around, come on and join me
Dance around, come on and join me
Oh play around, come on and tell me
You got no time for pleasure at all


5. LANDING

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
It's time for your mind to play a game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for a hand that must be there
You know how it fools you
And you know how it is
To be one of those people
Who don't know what they miss
You can hide away from reality
And escape

Yesterday I felt it
And the first thing I thought
Never let go
I held it as close as I could
When it didn't grow like it should
And then, after hours, I opened my head
I found myself back on the floor near my bed
Nothing has changed, it was all the same again
The same again

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
It's time for your mind to play a game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for a hand that must be there
You know how it fools you
And you know how it is
To be one of those people
Who don't know what they miss
You can hide away from reality
But you can't escape


6. STAND BY ME

I don't care if you need more lovin'
More than I can give you everyday
I don't mind if you sleep all over town
If you only care for me,
Than I don't have to say

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I don't mind if you need more money
Go out with friends and dance all night
And give your body when you're stoned and wasted
When you're with me, I want you on my side

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I don't care if you drive my car
And go ridin' with some rock 'n roll star
You wanna make love and you tell him you're free
But when we're together, please stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me


7. BACK HOME

Goin' back right through the city
Through the country, rivers so pretty
People wonder why I'm going back home
Just the place where I belong

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home

'Round and 'round, the world goes 'round
Got my friends in every town
From border to border, every place I've been
I've gotta be back if you know what I mean

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home


8. THE WALL OF DOLLS

This is the wall of dolls
Secret world of smalls
Look at them all my friend
You'll be one of them in the end

Frozen smiles and frowns
Lives of ups and downs
Aren't you, aren't we all
Part of the wall of dolls

Listen to the puppet clown
His tales might bring you down
Hang the dwarfs and trolls
Hang on the wall of dolls

This is the wall of dolls
Secret world of smalls
Look at them all my friend
You'll be one of them in the end


9. BORN A SECOND TIME

And I was born a second time,
But it wasn't a one where I could find a care
I'll just send my boy whenever we need him,
Father was a man I never seen, and you

Stars were shining up above us,
I started to believe in love again

Now I know what made me feel so shy,
Words I should have said died away when I, saw you

Being in this situation,
Thinking of a new relationship,
Makes me feel that I'm alone with me,
I'm sure that love will wanna used to be,
(With you)

Mystic clouds around my head,
I can't remember what you said to me
Born a second time is another love,
As long as it's not me you're thinking of
(Mmm, love)


10. BIG TREE BLUE SEA

Morning sunshine, praise the earth
Fill your glass with wine and dirt
I don't mind, I'm the big tree
I don't mind, I'm the blue sea

Paper castles, filled with words
Limbo policemen please the herd
I don't mind, I'm the big tree
I don't mind, I'm the blue sea

I'm sun, I'm warm, I'm child of the moon
Even when it's dark, I'll send the dune
Can't you hear there's fishermen laughing
The whale dips down, I hear him crying for me
I'm shade, I'm good, I'm beams in June
Even when it's dark, I'll light your room
Don't you know the clown has feelings
Talking revolution, secret meetings, who's free
Who's free, free

Morning sunshine, praise the earth
Fill your glass with blood and dirt
I don't mind, I'm the big tree
I don't mind, I'm the blue sea


11. ONE HUGE ROAD

Sunshine, I'm late back and happy
I wish I could stay here forever
When the sun's gone
I just can't be lazy
Movin' on, to see my baby
So I pack my things and I'm going
The highway, going on my way

Gotta move on, the road is much too long, too long
One huge road for one, one huge road for one


12. SEE SEE

He was the only key
She was the only door
What more could they please

Her eyes are ponds of blue
His wishes all came true
What was there to loose in the midnight

See, see, see, he said
Seagulls screamin' down in the morning sky
Gee, gee, gee, he said
Come on girl let's leave this world behind

But then, after weeks
The weeks they got weak
Little did they speak about the future
Her eyes still were blue
But thoughts soon got black
Time that he went back to where he came from

See, see, see, she said
Broken dreams fill the starless night
Gee, gee, gee, she said
And her tears were sparklin' bright in the mornin' light
