Sunrise
Sweet Lorraine
Traveller in time
Easy livin'
July morning
Tears in my eyes
Gypsy
Circle of hands
Look at yourself
The magician's birthday
Love machine
Rock 'n' roll medley
Something or nothing
I won't mind
Look at yourself
Gypsy
Easy livin'
So tired
I won't mind
Something or nothing
The easy road
Stealin'
Love machine
Rock 'n' medley: blue suede shoe / ean woman blues
Sunrise
Sunrise
And the new day's breakin' through
The morning
Of another day without you
And as the hours roll by
No-one’s there to see me cry
Except the sunrise
The sunrise and you

Tired eyes drift across the shore
Looking for love and nothing more
But as the sea rolls by
No-one's there to see me cry
Excep the sunrise
The sunrise and you

Sunrise
Bless my eyes
Catch my soul
Make me whole again

Sunrise, new day
Hear my song
I'm tired of fightin'
And foolin' around
But from now on
Till who knows when
My sword will be my friend
And I'll love you, love you
For all of my time

Sweet Lorraine
Would you like to take
This magic potion with me
On a trip to a cosmic
Playground far beyond
She understands
She's been before
It's in her hands
To find the door

Sweet Lorraine
Let the party carry on
You and I will swim the sea
Sweet Lorraine
Let the party carry on
You and I can feel the breeze

There is no time, no wealth
Only I surround you
The fortune of this guide
Is simply sincerity
She understands
‘Cos she's been before
It's in her hands
To find the door, so

Traveller in time
Too scared I could not run
I could not make a sound
Lights were flashing
My whole life passing
My feet were stuck to the ground

Too light to call it night
Too dark to call it day
Too scared to stay and fight
Too scared to run away

So scared I could not move
I could not make a sound
There were people running
People shouting
Flashes all around

Too scared to run
Too scared to run away

Too scared I could not think
My eyes could not scarcely see
My heart was racing
My legs were shaking
They would not carry me

Lights were flashing
My whole life passing
My heart, my heart
My heart was racing
My legs were shaking
Could not see, I could not see

Easy livin'
This is a thing I've
never known before
It's called easy livin'
This is a place I've
Never seen before
Now I've been forgiven

Easy livin’ and I've been forgiven
Since you've taken
your place in my heart

Somewhere along the lonely road
I had tried to find you
Day after day on that windy road
I had walked behind you

Easy livin’ and I've been forgiven
Since you've taken
your place in my heart

Waiting, watching
Wishing my whole life away
Dreaming, thinking
Ready for my happy day
And some easy livin'

July morning
There I was on a July morning
Looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun

At the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
And a road of my own

With the day came the resolution
I'll be looking for you
La la la la …

I was looking for love
In the strangest places
Wasn't a stone
That I left unturned
Must have tried more
Than a thousand faces
But not one was aware
Of the fire that burned

In my heart, in my mind, in my soul
La la la la …

There I was on a July morning
I was looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun

And at the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
Yeah, and a road of my own
				
top

Tears in my eyes
I thought no-one could keep us
From sharing the rest of our lives
Like a fool I believed you were true
And had no disguise

There's a clear blue sky outside
And the summer is fine
But with tears in my eyes
I'm no longer
Pretending you're mine

It's the same weary story
Of a woman abusing her man
So I have to forget you
Though I'm not even sure if I can

Gypsy
I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me: "Hold on"
Her father was the leading man
Said: "You're not welcome on our land"
And then as a foe, he told me to go

He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her: "Leave me"
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl
She means all the world

Oh, I want my qypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man
That he'll understand
				
top

Circle of hands
Circle of hands
Cold spirits plan
Searching my land
For an enemy
Came across
Love's sweet cost
And in the face of beauty
Evil was lost

Sky full of eyes
Minds full of lies
Black from their cold hearts
Down to their graves
Murdered the dawn
Spreading their scorn
Cursing the sun
Of which love was born

We must keep them away
Or pretty soon we'll pay
And count the cost in sorrow
Sacrifice - the future has it's price
And today is only
Yesterday's tomorrow

Tomorrow ...

Look at yourself
Will you risk your reputation
I don’t know
You just don’t know
What you’re saying
Anymore
You know beggars
Can’t be choosers
And it’s fair
We may win, we may be loosers
I don’t care, no no no

Oh baby, I just can’t stand
Another lonely night
So come on over and save me
Save me from another lonely night

I hear every word you’re saying
They’re all lies
But with every breath you’re taking
You’re thinking of
Ways to say goodnight

Baby, I just can’t stand
Another lonely night
So come on over and save me
Save me from another lonely night
Come on over
Come and save me

The magician's birthday
In the magic garden
Some were singing
Some were dancing
While the midnight moon
Shone brightly overhead

The stars so gaily glistened
And the sphinx in silence listened to
The magician tell of
Lives that he had led

Let the bells of freedom ring
Songs of love to Friday's king

Let's all go to
The magician's birthday
It's in a forest
But not so far away
Much to do
And so much to say
While we listened to
The orchid orchestra play

Happy Birthay to you ...
Happy Birthday to magician
Happy Birthday to you ...

Then at the dead of midnight
As we watched the dancing firelight
The air grew cold
And seemed to dull the flame
The fire died
The music faded
Filled with fear of death we waited
For now we knew
Some evil was to blame

I challenge you
I challenge you all
For all you own
And all you know
And I own the powers of darkness
I will steal what is mine

Surrender now or face my spite
I grant you it may be Friday night
But did you know this day
Also numbers thirteen

First I'll give you fire
I turn your fire into a sleepy stream
Yes, now I give you nightmares
From your horror I'll create a dream

You cannot fight me
For I have the sword of hate
But one thing you can't see
My answer is simply
An impenetrable fortress
Of love ... love ... love ...

The fear went as quickly as it came
The air was clear
The fire burned again
The flames leapt
The organ played
The swans sang
To greet the day
And then we knew that
Love will find love will find love ..

Love machine
Lovely little lady
You got me on the run
You're a love machine
And you say that I'm your gun

But I don't care
‘Cause I've got to know

She said she were a loser
The kind that came off worse
So I had to try hard
To satisfy your thirst

But I don't care
‘Cause I've got to know

The only time she's happy
Is when the bullets fly
And she'll make you
Feel you're better
Than any other guy

And I don't care
‘Cause I've got to know

Lovely little lady
You got me on the run
You're a love machine
And I’m trying to be your gun

And I don't care
‘Cause I've got to know

Rock 'n' roll medley

Something or nothing
There's never a day
When I've got nothing to do
Something to me
Might mean nothing to you

So don't don’t don’t don’t
Look at me strangely now
We'll find the line
That's in the middle and run

Something, something or nothing

You say you love to spend days
But I will save mine
Waiting for the sun in your eyes
To turn the river to wine

But don’t don’t don’t don’t
Look at me strangely now
We’re gonna find the line
That's in the middle and run
				
top

I won't mind
I don’t mind
If you steal my last dime
Just leave me anytime
And I'll get, get along fine
I don't really know why
But I know I'll get by
If I don't I'll die tryin’

If it rains again
I'm gonna fly to the sun
'Cause nothing gets done
Just sitting, sitting around
Look at the way it's been
Just waitin' and wonderin'
I've just got to keep trying

Looking for gold in the sky
Gets kinda rough
Maybe I'm to blame
‘Cause I didin't look hard enough
But I still get the feeling
That it shouldn't be so tough

So I won't mind, I, I won't mind
I won't mind, I, I won't mind

So I won't mind
I, No, I won't mind
I won't mind, I, said I won't mind

Look at yourself
I see you running
Don't know what
You're running from
Nobody's coming
What'd you do that was so wrong

Look back and turn back
Look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just
Look at yourself

If you need assistance
Or if all you need is love
There's no point in hiding
Tell me what you’re frightened of

You've got a friend, just
Look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just
Look at yourself

So tired
Well, I've been on the road
For a year or more
And I’ve done a lot of things
I never did before
Now I want everyone
To listen to my song
And you can tell me
When you've heard it
If you think I'm wrong

'Cause I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
Yes, I'm so tired
And I'm so uninspired
Please help me

Well I've seen 'em rise
And I've seen 'em fall
And I use to think that
I was having a ball
But I was kiddin' myself
For a long long time
But now I got myself a spoon
And I'm feeling fine

But I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
Yes, I'm so tired
And I'm so uninspired
Won’t you please help me

Where can you go
Where can you go
When there is no one
To show a guiding light
What did you say
What did you say
Have you been thinking about me
Day and night

'Cause I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
And I'm so, so tired
I'm so uninspired
Please help me
Won’t you please me ...

The easy road
If you're looking for a place
You can fly together
And you're really afraid of
What you're leaving behind
Take the easiest road
But take care my brother
For you'll never find peace
With a troubled mind

Far better to love each other
Than to worry so deeply
‘Bout the place you’re in
And far better to kiss her softly
Than lookin' back on a love
You'll never have again

Time's as fickle as
The sky in winter
And two hearts always
Were better than one
Love has the wings
Of a tireless angel
She'll stay beside you
Till the day is done

La la la la la ...

You’ll never have again
No no no, never again
You’ll never have again

Stealin'
Take me across the water
‘Cause I need some place to hide
I done the rancher’s daughter
And I sure did hurt his pride

Well, there's a
Hundred miles of desert
Lies between his hide and mine
I don't need no food
And no water, Lord
‘Cos I'm running out of time

Fightin', killin', wine and women
Gonna put me to my grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'
Nothing left to save but my life

Stood on a ridge
And shunned religion
Thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake
Stealin', when I
Should've been buyin'

All that fightin', killin'
Wine and those women
Gonna put me to an early grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'
Nothing left to save but my life, life...

So I stood on a ridge
And shunned religion
Thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake
Stealin', when I
Should've been buyin'
I was stealin’
When I should’ve been buyin’
I was stealin’
When I should’ve been buyin’
Stealin’, when I
Should’ve been buyin’ ..
I was stealin’ ...
