The Song Remains The Same

I had a dream

Oh, yeah

Crazy dream, uh-huh.

Anything I wanted to know

Any place I needed to go

Hear my song

Yeah...People don't you listen now? Sing along!

Oh, You don't know what you're missing now.

Any little song that you know

Everything that's small has to grow.

And slow it grows!

Push push, yeah!

California sunlight, sweet Calcutta rain

Honolulu starbright--the song remains the same. ooh! ooh!

Here we go!

Honolulu now...

Sing out Hare Hare, dance the Hoochie Koo.

City lights are oh so bright, as we go sliding

sliding

sliding through.

Oh!

The Rain Song

It is the springtime of my loving-

the second season I am to know

You are the sunlight in my growing-

so little warmth I've felt before.

It isn't hard to feel me glowing-

I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles-

flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.

Speak to me only with your eyes

it is to you I give this tune.

Ain't so hard to recognize-

These things are clear to all from

time to time. Ooooh...

Talk Talk-

I've felt the coldness of my winter

I've never thought it would ever go

I've cursed the gloom that set upon us...

But I know that I love you so

but I know that I love you so.

These are the seasons of emotion

And like the winds they rise and fall

This is the wonder of devotion-

I see the torch we all must hold.

This is the mystery of the quotient-

Upon us all, upon us a little rain must fall.

Just a little rain?

ooooh, yeah yeah yeah!

Over The Hills And Far Away

Hey lady--you got the love I need

Maybe more than enough.

Oh Darling... walk a while with me

Ooh, you've got so much...

Many have I loved

Many times been bitten

Many times I've gazed

Along the open road.

Many times I've lied

Many times I've listened

Many times I've wondered

How much there is to know.

Many dreams come true

And some have silver linings

I live for my dream

And a pocketful of gold.

Mellow is the man

Who knows what he's been missing

Many many men

Can't see the open road.

Many is a word

That only leaves you guessing

Guessing 'bout a thing

You really ought to know, ooh!

You really ought to know

I really ought to know!

No Quarter

Close the door, put out the light.

No, they won't be home tonight.

The snow falls hard and don't you know?

The winds of Thor are blowing cold.

They're wearing steel that's bright and true

They carry news that must get through, oooh

They choose the path where no-one goes.

They hold no quarter.

They hold no quarter.

Walking side by side with death

The devil mocks their every step

The snow drives back the foot that's slow

The dogs of doom are howling more

They carry news that must get through

To build a dream for me and you

They choose the path where no-one goes.

They hold no quarter.

They ask no quarter.

They hold no quarter.

They ask no quarter.

The pain, the pain without quarter.

They ask no quarter.

Yeah! Without quarter, quarter, yeah!

They need no quarter.

The dogs of doom are howling more!

I hear the dogs of doom are howling more!

The Ocean

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain

Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain

Got no time to pack my bag, my foot's outside the door

I got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.

'got a hell hound on my trail'

'cause it's hell I'm headed for'

Uh-huh! oh oh yeah!

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar

Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!

Singing 'bout good things and the sun that lights the day

I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way

I've been there!

Oh oh yeah!

Oh, yeah!

Na na na..., La la la...

Sitting round singing songs til the night turns into day

Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away

Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart

She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start.

Oh yeah!

It sure is fine!

Blow my mind!

It feels so good, yeah!

Yeah yeah!

Do wop a diddly diddly........

Oh, so good!

The Rover

I've been to London, seen seven wonders

I know to trip is just to fall

I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it

I always knew what it was for

There can be no denyin'

That the wind 'll shake 'em down

And the flat world's flyin'

There's a new plague on the land

If we could just join hands

If we could just join hands

If we could just join

Traversed the planet when heaven sent me

I saw the kings who rule them all

Still by the firelight and purple moonlight

I hear the 'rested rivers call

And the wind is cryin'

>From a love that won't grow cold

My lover, she is lyin'

On the dark side of the globe

If we could just join hands

If we could just join hands

If we could just join hands

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Do it, aoh

You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen

Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right

Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry

And I would dearly like to know

I've all this wonder of earthly plunder

Will 't leave us anything to show

And our time is flyin'

See the candle burnin' low

Is the new world risin'

From the shambles of the old

If we could just join hands

If we could just join hands

If we could just, if we could just, if we could just, if we could just, if we could just join hands... hands

That's all it takes, that's all it takes

That's all it takes, that's all it takes

Houses Of The Holy

Let me take you to the movies

Can I take you to the show

Let me be yours ever truly

Can I make your garden grow

From the houses of the holy

We can watch the white doves go

From the door comes Satan's daughter

And it only goes to show

Ah, you know

There's an angel on my shoulder

In my hand a sword of gold

Let me wander in your garden

And the seeds of love I'll sow

You know-whoa-oh

So the world is spinning faster

Are you dizzy when you're stoned

Let the music be your master

Will you heed the master's call

Oh-whoa-oh, Satan an' man

Said there ain't no use in cryin'

'Cause it will only, only drive you mad

Does it hurt to hear them lyin'

Was this the only world you had

Oh-oh

So let me take you, take you to the movie

Can I take you, baby, to the show

Why don't you let me be yours ever truly

Can I make your garden grow

You know-whoa, that's right
