[Hazlinny]

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

John Lennon

[maggiebee]

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings
The six o'clock alarm would never ring
But it rings and I rise
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
My shavin' razor's cold and it stings

Cheer up, sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

The Monkees

[Canary42]

Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?

Art Garfunkel

[Ken4155]

Fate took a freeway to my room

Said too much while he stayed, and left too soon

Bright on an ocean sea,

He washed in with the tide

Deep in each other's dreams

Where all but dreams have died

Yazoo

[Arksided]

In Babylon
On the boulevard of broken dreams
My will power at the lowest ebb
Oh what can I do?
Oh buccaneer
Can ya help me put my truck in gear?
Can ya take me far away from here?
Save my soul from sin?

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

(So let the wicked) carried us away in captivity
Requiring from us a song
Now how can we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land.

Boney M

I am on the rock and then I check a stock
I have to run like a fugitive to save the life I live
I'm gonna be iron like a lion in Zion
I'm gonna be iron like a lion in Zion

Iron Lion Zion
I'm on the run but I ain't got no gun
See they want to be the star
So they fighting tribal war
And they saying iron like a lion in Zion
Iron like a lion in Zion
Iron Lion Zion

Bob Marley

[maggiebee]

Love on the rocks, ain't no surprise
Just pour me a drink, and I'll tell you some lies
Got nothing to lose, so you just sing the blues
All the time

Gave you my heart, gave you my soul
You left me alone here with nothing to hold
Yesterday's gone, now all I want is a smile

Neil Diamond

[Hazlinny]

You told her lies as her starry eyes
Looked up in admiration
You painted scenes and lovely dreams
With all your temptation

You spoke of things like wedding rings
And promised her the world
For no cause at all you let her fall
And now she's yesterday's girl

Hank Thompson

[maggiebee]

Why am I so starry eyed
Starry eyed and mistified
Every time I look at you
Falling stars come into view
Can it be that am in love
With an angel from above
I asked my heart my heart replied
Yes that's just why you're so starry eyed

Michael Holliday

[Hazlinny]

I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate?
And do they know the places where we go
When we're grey and old?
'Cause I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold

So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

RW

[Arksided]

All dead, all dead
All the dreams we had
And I wonder why I still live on
All dead, all dead
And alone I'm spared
My sweeter half instead
All dead and gone
All dead

[Hazlinny]

Money can't buy you happiness
And that drinking can cause you pain
Yeah, that stuff you put up your nose
It can drive you insane
Why do you do these things?
You're killing yourself each day
So you better get down on your knees
And ask the good Lord to take it away
Let the rain stop falling
Let the sun shine again
Let your heart stop crying
Let the good Lord be with you, my friend
And start living life again

[Arksided]

We're right back
Where we started from
People going separate ways
This is the way things are now
In disarray, hey
I read it in the papers
There's death on every page, oh
Oh Lord, I thank you from above
My life has been saved

👑

[mushroom25]

When I think of those east end lights
Muggy nights the curtains drawn
In the little room downstairs
Prima donna Lord you really should have been there
Sittin' like a princess perched in her electric chair
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
We've all gone crazy lately
My friend's out there rolling 'round the basement floor
(ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh...)

And someone saved my life tonight
Sugar bear (sugar bear...)

You almost had your hooks in me
Didn't you dear
You nearly had me roped and tied
Altar bound hypnotized sweet freedom
Whispered in my ear
You're a butterfly
And butterflies are free to fly
Fly away
High away
Bye bye....

Crazy? I was crazy once
Locked me into a room
I jumped out the window
and landed on the grass
Grass makes me crazy
Crazy? I was crazy once
Locked me into a room
I jumped out the window
and landed on the grass

3 days have passed
I left it all behind
I slowly lost my mind
It's nowhere that I can find

Well I believe there's something watching over you
They're watching every single thing you say
And when you die they'll set you down and take you through
You'll realize one day

That the grass is always greener on the other side
The neighbor's got a new car that you want to drive
And when time is running out you want to stay alive

Travis

[Hazlinny]

very breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

I don't know what you're looking for
You haven't found it baby, that's for sure
You rip me up, you spread me all around
In the dust of the dead of time

And this is not a case of lust, you see
It's not a matter of you versus me
It's fine the way you want me on your own
But in the end it's always me alone

And I'm losing my favorite game
You're losing your mind again
I'm losing my baby
Losing my favorite game
