A Glimpse Inside
A Glimpse Inside, of my ever loving life
Something pulls at me I don't know why
A Glimpse Inside of the things you meant to hide
Something really reaches out to find
What you you thought was make believe, the dream you left incomplete
There's nothing to fear
There's nobody here
and I'm going to see my life
A Glmpse Inside of the things you've been denied
Something always left you high and dry
Tried and tried, but you could not put aside
The something that keeps you reaching back to find
What you thought was make believe
The dream you left incomplete
There's nothing to fear
There's nobody here
and I'm going to see my life
Through the days
Faces disappear
In a world that once seemed clear
and I'm going to see my life through the eyes of love
There's nothing to fear
There's nobody here
A Glimpse Inside
At the anguish and delight
I was the only person left to fight
What I thought was make believe
You made my dream complete
There's nothing to fear
Now that you're here
I have come to see my life through the eyes of love
Dream Deferred
Maybe it's not too late
To see what you have become
If there's a singer
there is a song
In monologues not debate
Still maybe it's not too late
Who rules and who fools who cares
Just cut up the layer cake
Who knows if I've been here before
Saw myself and I closed the door
Just to wait and wait again
Who knows if I've been here before
Saw myself and I closed the door
Just to wait and wait again
Did you ever have a dream?
Did you ever have the time?
Did someone wake you up?
What did you have to sacrifice?
Maybe it's not too late
Maybe it's just begun
If there's a singer
There is a song
Maybe I sold you out
Maybe you just bought in
If there's a singer
Let it begin
What's a Dream Deferred?
It's just a word
A falling bird
May as well be someone else's life
Cried A thousand Times
I Cried A Thousand Times but that wouldn't get you back again
What's gone's long gone you can't have it back again
Your shoes don't fit me now
You're too cold and you're much too small
What's dead lives on, only if I can pretend
I loved you
I still do
I Cried A Thousand Times but that wouldn't get you back again
Your dream won't fit me now
It's too cold any you're much too small
What's dead lives on, only If I can pretend
I loved you
I still do
Waves
If the love that you have is leaving, let it be
If the dream that you had is receding, set it free
Always someone inside the mirror, and it's me
There's a lie and it's getting clearer
Out to sea
Waves on the water
Waves goodbye
Waves of emotion on the ocean I cried
Waves they rise
Waves they fall
Through my life
I caught them all then I let them fall away
If the dream that you had is receding let it be
If the dream that you loved is leaving wait and see
Always someone inside the mirror and it's me
There's lie and it's getting clearer
Out to sea
Waves on the water
Waves goodbye
Waves of emotion on the ocean I cried
Waves they rise
Waves they fall
Through my life
I caught them all then I let them fall away
Coming in and out of my life
Peace is so hard to find and it was always in your mind
Though it might take some time
Waves on the water
Waves goodbye
Waves of emotion on the ocean I cried
Waves they rise
Waves they fall
Through my life
I caught them all then I let the fall away
Coming in and out of my life
Away
I'm Sorry
Let me say, to everybody here today
I'm Sorry
I'm Sorry
It was all a mistake, and I wasn't awake
I'm Sorry
I'm Sorry
It was all a mistake, and I wasn't awake
I was taking everything I had, for granted and I feel so bad
Sorry
I'm Sorry
If you live, long enough to forgive
You would see the things I held inside
The things I tried so hard to hide
Maybe you wouldn't be there to receive this
but if you were I'd be so glad
I wasn't awake, it was all a mistake
I was taking all the love I had for granted and I feel so bad
I wasn't awake, it was all a mistake and I wouldn't do what I did then
I hope you'll let me in again
The Sane Society
I used to live on Blueberry Hill
But something died there
It follows me still
If you want me to I'll tell you why
Strip the varnish and see the lie
You know the best prison makes you think you're free
to be who you think you ought to be and let's you
think you know what you think you want
Spend the day in a restaurant and eat
It's The Sane Society
The Sane Society
Locks you out or keeps you in
heartless and made of tin
Is it the people?
Is it the place?
What is this odor?
I just can't escape
In The Sane Society
you're never really free
You go to work, you go to bed
Now you're with the living dead
Do you see?
Who builds the rockets and makes the planes
to knock 'em down and set 'em up again
You see the, Jumping Jacks and the Jumping Jills
who read the script and push the pills
and if you, if you haven't figured out by now
they pull the nose ring you pull the plow
It's The Sane Society
The Sane Society
You break the child and you break the man
Turn his mind into a garbage can
It's the same for you and me
Join The Sane Society
Rosita
Won't you come into my garden now Rosita
All the birds and bees and weeds are dying to meet you
You can plant fresh flowers this Spring
I know there isn't anything you won't turn green this growing season
In the desert you could surely grow a fountain
You could make the leaves grow high up on the mountain
Do you really see what I mean?
I know there isn't anything you won't turn green this growing season
Where you live can you give yourself up and over to love?
All the love you have is there and never leaving
All the things you wished and hoped for and believe in
Do you really see what I mean?
Where there's love your whole world is green
The joy you bring it needs no reason
While you live can you give yourself up and over to love?
Won't you come into my garden now Rosita
All the birds and bees and weeds are dying to meet you
You can cut fresh flowers this spring
I know there isn't anything, no I know there isn't anything you won't bring
The Wake
There's on thing haunting me can't you see
All my dreams are make believe can't you see
All my dream are make believe, make believe at The Wake
No one knows the part of you that comes and goes
No one sees the part of you that's in-between
There's one thing
There's one thing haunting me can't you see
All my dreams are make believe, make believe at The Wake
There's a part of me unseen it comes up in my dream
All the people that you meet gliding down the street never to be seen again
Lonely violence, sport of men
Games we're playing I can't pretend
Hiding, hating things I see
Always something dividing me
There's one thing….
Sweet Voice
Sweet Voice comes to me and smiles so softly
Is it going to be another day of rain again oh no
I looked but couldn't see you right behind me
Is it going to be another day of rain again oh no
It feels like I'm coming down again
It feels like I'm coming down again
Sweet voice comes to me and smiles so softly
Is its going to be another day of rainy again oh no
It feels like I'm coming down again
It feels like I'm coming down again
Sweet voice
Rock and Roll
Won't you tell me you see me
See me as I come and go
If you knew me you'd see me
Put the picture back in the ground
Look at me, won't you tell me that I'm still alive
Look at me, won't you tell me that I'm still alive
There's a man in the mountain
They tried to take the mountain down he couldn't be found
There's a hole in the people
Put the hole back in the ground
Look at me, won't you tell me that I'm still alive
Look at me, won't you tell me that I'm still alive
Tell me that I'm still alive
Tell me
It's only Rock and Roll, what do you need to know, to know
It's only Rock and Roll, what do you need to know to know, to know, to know, to know
Look at me, what do you need to know, to know?
Look at me, what do you need to know, to know, to know to know, to know
