I am he as you are he as you are me
And we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun see how they fly
I’m crying
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me.
And do I take you by the hand, and lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can.
Strangers in the night
Two lonely people, we were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away
Oh, I’m never gonna be the same again
Now I see the way it’s got to end
Sweet dream, sweet dream
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Forty thousand headmen couldn’t make me change my mind
If I had to take the choice between the deafman and the blind
I know just where my feet should go and that’s enough for me
I turned around and knocked them down and walked across the sea
Me and Judas lost at sea, deep inside a dream we’re trailing
Heard him whisper, “Wait for me,” sun goes down and we’re still sailing
I’m not nervous but I think I’ll lay back anyway
I’m not helpless but I think I’ll stay
And even the waves won’t carry me away
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together, so happy together
(How is the weather?)
Cloudy, the sky is gray and white and cloudy
Sometime’s I think it’s hangin’ down on me
Flying, and you know I’m not coming down
You’re trying, but you know you must soon go down
All my colours turn to clouds
All my colours turn to cloud
Love is waiting there, in my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air, in my beautiful balloon
If you’ll hold my hand, we’ll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly, up, up and away
I dreamed I met a Galilean
A most amazing man.
He had that look you very rarely find.
The haunted, hunted kind.
A-hunting we will go
A-hunting we will go
Tantivy, tantivy, tantivy,
A-hunting we will go
You better start swimming or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times, they are a-changing.
I go swimming, I go swimming
Swimming in water, swimming in water, swimming in water
Water all over me
Nightswimming, remembering that night
September’s coming soon
I’m pining for the moon
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit around the fairest sun?
[With apologies to astronomy buffs…]
Where once it never rained till after sundown,
By eight a.m. the morning fog had flown…
Don’t let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment that was known
As Camelot.
So what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a light
Or end in the dark?
It’s all or nothing
It’s us and us only
I know I’m as good as my neighbour
A starter for ten
I can’t promise I will always be with you
I promise I’ll always be there
Oh! I wonder what you people do with your lives!
