Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?
Would you like to glide in my beautiful balloon?
We could float among the stars together, you and I
For we can fly, we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon...

Cheers, og
 
When I was a child I had a fever,
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand...
 
Is there anybody out there
Am I swimming through this empty sea alone
Am I looking for an answer
Or am I trying to find a way to get back home
Is there anybody out there
Would you hear me if I screamed or if I cried
I am looking for an answer...

Cheers, og
 
I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their safety zones
Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive?

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself


They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that their lives could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that their lives could be better

Brian Wilson / Beach Boys 'I Know There's an Answer' from :bowdown: Pet Sounds

You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
Push a little harder
Think a little deeper
Don't let the plastic
Bring you down

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try

Time still creepin'
'Specially when you're sleepin'
Wake up and go
For what you know...

Cheers, og
 
Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4
Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more
25 or 6 to 4
Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4
 
It's quarter to three,
There's no one in the place 'cept you and me
So set 'em' up joe
I got a little story I think you oughtta know

We're drinking my friend
To the end of a brief episode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

I know the routine
Put another nickel in that there machine
I'm feeling so bad
Won't you make the music easy and sad

I could tell you a lot
But you gotta to be true to your code
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road.

Cheers, og
 
You've long been on the open road you've been sleepin' in the rain.
From dirty words and muddy cells your clothes are soiled and stained.
But the dirty words and the mud of cells will soon be judged insane.
So only stop and rest yourself and you'll be off again.

Oh, take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile.
Your feet are hot and weary from a dusty mile.
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try.
Lookin' for the evenin'
And the mornin' in your eyes.

Sometimes we live no particular way but our own
Sometimes we visit your country and live in your home
Sometimes we ride on your horses
Sometimes we walk alone
Sometimes the songs we hear
Are just songs of our own

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world
The heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now; discover that you are the song that the morning brings
The heart has its seasons, its evenings and thoughts of its own.
 
Never trust the stars
When you're about to fall in love
Look for hidden signs or you'll begin to sigh
Never trust the moon
When you're about to taste his kiss
He knows all the lies and lives up to lie
Just wait for a night
When the skies are all bare
And see
If you care

Never trust your dreams
When you're about to fall in love
Or your dreams will quickly fall apart
So if you're smart, really smart
Only trust your heart...

Only Trust Your Heart ~ Astrud Gilberto.

Oh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain
Oh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side

Gary Wright - Dream Weaver
 
...Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end...

Cheers, og
 
Now you know that you are free
Living all your life at ease
Each day has its always
A look down life's hallways
Doorways
To lead you there.
 
You don't understand
That a girl like me can love just one man.
Three thousand miles, that's how far you'll go.
And you said to me "Please don't follow".

Cause you gotta go where you wanna go
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.
 
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up.
Everything's waiting for you
 
We've already said ‘Goodbye’.
Since you've got to go
Oh you had better go now.
Go now. Go now. Go now
Before you see me cry.
I don't want you to tell me
Just what you intend to do now.
'Cause how many times do I have to tell you
Darling, darling,
I'm still in love
With you now
 
We're watchin' and we're waitin'
On the edge of our seats, anticpatin'.
It's lookin' awful permanent but we know it could go away.

We're keepin' our eyes peeled, keepin' them glued to this spot.
'Cause one moment it's there but then the next maybe not.
Don't know if it's magic or some weird cosmic plot
So we're watchin' and we're waitin'.

Cheers, og

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
And I'm hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear them sayin'
That there's no way to delay that trouble comin' every day
No way to delay that trouble comin' every day ...
 
This is the end
Beautiful friend, the end
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plan, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes ... again.
