I fly a starship across the Universe divide  
And when I reach the other side  
I’ll find a place to rest my spirit if I can  
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again  
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain  
But I will remain  
And I’ll be back again, and again and again and again and again…

Happenings ten years time ago  
Situations we really know  
But the knowing is in the mind  
Sinking deep into the well of time  
Sinking deep into the well of time

So waste your time  
On people who don’t know which way to go  
They’ll never take you up  
Never take you up in the sky  
Because it’s [all in the mind](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_3GqfaOKBY)

And at last the time has come  
To unite again as one  
To the power of the Earth I’m calling  
Crossing bridges in the sky  
On a journey to renew my life  
Shaman take my hand

Sail on silver girl  
Sail on by  
Your time has come to shine  
All your dreams are on their way  
See how they shine  
When you need a friend  
I’m sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water  
I will ease your mind  
Like a bridge over troubled water  
I will ease your mind

</div>

If there’s one thing  
In my life that’s missing  
It’s the time that I spend alone  
Sailing on the cool  
And bright clear water

Lots of those friendly people  
They’re showing me ways to go  
And I never want to  
Lose their inspiration

Time for a cool change  
I know that it’s time for a cool change  
Now that my life is so prearranged  
I know that it’s time for a cool change

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes  
(Turn and face the strain)  
Ch-ch-Changes  
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers  
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes  
(Turn and face the strain)  
Ch-ch-Changes  
Pretty soon now you’re gonna get older  
Time may change me  
But I can’t trace time  
I said that time may change me  
But I can’t trace time

To everything, turn, turn, turn  
There is a season, turn, turn, turn  
And a time to every purpose under heaven  
A time to build up, a time to break down  
A time to dance, a time to mourn  
A time to cast away stones  
A time to gather stones together

You’re hot then you’re cold  
You’re yes then you’re no  
You’re in then you’re out  
You’re up then you’re down  
You’re wrong when it’s right  
It’s black and it’s white  
We fight, we break up  
We kiss, we make up

No, and I ain’t lookin’ to fight with you  
Frighten you or tighten you  
Drag you down or drain you down  
Chain you down or bring you down  
All I really want to do  
Is, baby, be friends with you.

One baby to another says I’m lucky to have met you  
I don’t care what you think unless it is about me  
It is now my duty to completely drain you  
I travel through a tube and end up in your infection

I can’t sleep at night  
How I wish you’d hold me tight  
I can’t sleep at night  
Come on and hold me tight

Hold me tight

There’s nobody in the future  
So baby let me hand you my love

So slip your hand inside of my glove  
Hold me, hold me, hold me  
Hold me, hold me, hold me

Hold on tight to your dream  
Hold on tight to your dream

When you hear that cold wind calling  
Hold on tight to your dream.

Sing with me, sing it for the year  
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear  
Sing with me, if it’s just for today  
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Dream on, dream on, dream on,  
Dream until your dreams come true

We’re not alone, we’ve got the world you know.  
And it won’t let us down, just wait and see.  
And we’ll grow old, but think how wise we’ll grow.  
There’s more you know, it’s only New Year’s Eve.

It’s just another New Year’s Eve,  
Another night like all the rest.  
It’s just another New Year’s Eve,  
Let’s make it the best.  
It’s just another New Year’s Eve,  
It’s just another Auld Lang Syne,  
But when we’re through this New Year, you’ll see, will be  
Just fine.
