Angel Of The Morning

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can find your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

Maybe the sun's light will be dim
It won't matter anyhow
If morning's echo says we've sinned
Well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're victims of the night
I won't be blinded by the light

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears of the day
Of the years, baby

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
Oh baby, I love you baby, oh baby

Winterwood

No one can take your place with me
And time has proven that I'm right
There's no place I'd rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
Lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground

And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I've never noticed without you
And for the first time I'm discovering
The things I used to treasure about you

Birds like leaves on winterwood
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days
They've learned to live life as they should
They are at peace with nature's ways
You are as natural as the night
And all that springs from you is good
And the children born beneath your light
Are like the birds on winterwood

And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I've never noticed without you
And for the first time I'm discovering
The things I used to treasure about you

Living In Harmony

It's not funny when you're lonely
It's much better when you're living in harmony
With someone you're really digging
And you want to give it all that you've got

Don't wanna make you cry
Don't wanna tell you lies
Don't wanna bring you down
Or treat you unkind
Just wanna make you mine
And hear you laugh all the time
Don't wanna break this tie
I'm telling you why

It's not funny when you're lonely
It's much better when you're living in harmony
With someone you're really digging
And you want to give it all that you've got

Now things were bad before
So I walked out the door
I guess I soon found out
What life's all about
But now I'm here to stay
Can't see me wandering away
Don't wanna break this tie
I'm telling you why

You can take a little loving
But if you're not giving
It'll never be worthwhile
You can take a little loving
But if you're not giving
It'll never work out fine

Play it to me, John

But now I'm here to stay
Can't see me wandering away
Don't wanna break this tie
I'm telling you why
It's not funny when you're lonely
It's much better when you're living in harmony

Feeling Best

It took a long time
But now I'm gonna be laughing
A very long time
When all I could feel was sad
A very long time
But now it's gonna be worth it
Cause I just found a friend to make me glad

I'm feeling food, feeling better
I'm feeling best
I feel a cut above the rest
I'm gonna put it to the test
Feeling good, feeling better
Feeling best
Feeling good, feeling better
I'm feeling best

I hope it doesn't sound like I'm blowing my own trumpet
Cause all I wanna do is join up with the band
When you feel good
You gotta come right out and say it
I've been so long at sea and I've just seen land

I'm feeling food, feeling better
I'm feeling best
I feel a cut above the rest
I'm gonna put it to the test
Feeling good, feeling better
Feeling best
Feeling good, feeling better
I'm feeling best

Country Girl

I was born in the country, I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow when the day's work was done
Down in the valley shone the bright neon signs
The call of the city life kept going through my mind
Oh yeah, the days of my childhood would soon be left behind

It was a Saturday morning when the snow lay on the ground
Pa said the time had come when I could move to town
So I kissed goodbye to Mama, held on tight to Papa's hand
I saw a tear in Mama's eye but I did not understand
'Cause I was just a country girl being brought up on the land

Goodbye Mama, let me see you smile
Wipe away that teardrop from your eye
I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I got to go, but I hate to say goodbye
So long, Papa, I'll be seeing you
But I'll be coming home again someday
No, I won't forget that I'm a country girl
A country girl, you know I'll always stay

I was born in the country, I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow when the day's work was done
Down in the valley shone the bright neon signs
Yet I know where I belong, I got my peace of mind
Oh yeah, I was born a country girl and that just suits me fine

Goodbye Mama, let me see you smile
Wipe away that teardrop from your eye
I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I got to go, but I hate to say goodbye
So long, Papa, I'll be seeing you
But I'll be coming home again someday
No, I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I'll come back to you, believe me
I won't forget that I'm a country girl
A country girl, you know I'll always stay

Someday

There's only one way to go when you're up too high
You've gotta come down; you've gotta come down
And there's only one way of saying the word goodbye
You've gotta come down; you've gotta come down

You've gotta be sure you're not throwing your life away
You know I can say you'll regret it someday

But someday, many tears and far away
There's gonna be something that's gonna make you want to stay
And if someday you should wake and want me near
I'll still be here

There's only one thing to do when you reach the end
You've gotta let go; you've gotta let go
And there's only one scene when it's all pretend
You've gotta let go; you've gotta let go

You've gotta be sure you're not throwing your life away
You know I can say you'll regret it someday

And you know that someday, when there's no one sleeping on your mind
You're gonna wake up and see tomorrow isn't hard to find
And if years don't heal the memories you feel
I'll still be here
Someday
And if someday you should wake and want me near
I'll still be here
Someday

Sail Into Tomorrow

If a ship of dreams bid me come, would I board it?
If I had their gold in my hands, would I hoard it?
If I knew the trials I must face, would I carry on at all?

Sail into tomorrow, living day to day
That's all I can afford to do and all I'll ever pay
Is a song to sing to thank you for making me alive
And a prayer to bring me comfort - Lord help us to survive

If his pretty eyes shone my way, would I leave you?
If I wasn't sure he would stay, would I deceive you?
If I had to melt you with promises, would they stand or fall?

Sail into tomorrow, living day to day
That's all I can afford to do and all I'll ever pay
Is a song to sing to thank you for making me alive
And a prayer to bring you comfort - Lord help us to survive

If time should call me a fool, would I laugh or would I care?
Sail into tomorrow, living day to day
That's all I can afford to do and all I'll ever pay
Is a song to sing to thank you for making me alive
And a prayer to bring you comfort - Lord help us to survive

Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of amber green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I can not compete with you, Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
And I can easy understand how you can easy take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can

Now, you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene

Xanadu

A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu

And now, open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are, a shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me
Eternally

Xanadu - Xanadu (now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu - Xanadu (now we are here)
In Xanadu

Xanadu your neon lights will shine
For you Xanadu

The love, the echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know, they are in Xanadu

The dream that came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu

A million lights are dancing and there you are
A shooting star, an everlasting world and you're
Here with me eternally

Xanadu - Xanadu (now we are here)
In Xanadu

Now that I'm here, now that you're near in Xanadu
