Steppin' In A Slide Zone
John Lodge
I took a ride in a limousine I took a road I'd never been I met a stranger by the way His coat was torn but his eyes were clear Standing in a slide zone Steppin' in a slide zone He told me where a river flows He showed me how the apple grows He told me of a magic stream His face was worn but his eyes were clear Standing in a slide zone I could be steppin' in a slide zone Standing in a slide zone I could be steppin' through a time zone He went to find a shooting star Around the bend that's where they are I went along just for the ride Suddenly I began to slide Standing in a slide zone I could be steppin' through a time zone The air raced by there was no sound We drifted high above the ground And then he said, "You know this place" And then a smile lit up his face Standing in a slide zone I could be steppin' in a slide zone Standing in a slide zone I could be steppin' through a time zone I turned my head and looked below And there was something that I know Suddenly I began to fall I looked around and tried to call Standing in a slide zone He had me steppin' in a time zone Standing in a slide zone Falling through a time zone "Help me please!" I thought I said Then something happened in my head Music came from all around And I knew what I had found Standing in a slide zone Falling through a time zone Steppin' in a slide zone He had me falling through a time zone Slide zone Slide zone....
I'm Your Man
Ray Thomas
Here I go again Finding it so hard to explain The way I feel when I hold you near Still it hurts when you cry Maybe you think love has passed you by Don't you know I need you so? But I guess you need to know I'm just a man, that's all I am I'm just a man that's yours I'm yours, you know I'm yours Life keeps changing key I'll look to you, please look back at me See I'm changing every day Reaching out for happy days But I'm just a man, that's all I am I'm just a man, I'm yours I'm yours, simply yours Life keeps changing key I'll look to you, please turn and look at me You'll see I'm changing every day In my search for happy days But then I'm just a man That's all I am I'm just a man, I'm yours That's yours, simply yours See me as I am, for I'm just a man I'm just a man but I'm yours Oh I'm yours, I'm simply yours
Top Rank Suite
Justin Hayward
Rain on the river Turns the torrent to a flood Swim or you'll never rise above Two lonely people Can mend a broken heart Love and you'll never fall apart But can you tell me why? They made a good bowl of chili at the jazz club They played a good game of football in Mucron They ripped everyone off at the Top Rank, babe If you could ever get into their suite Avenue Tombola and Social We just drove right on by We was on our way to the big time, baby To the great gold record in the sky Sun in the morning Brings the flowers from a bud Hail to the giver Of life and love Two lonely people Can mend a broken heart Love you'll never fall apart But can you tell me why? They made a good bowl of chili at the jazz club They played a good game of football in Mucron They ripped everyone off at the Top Rank babe If you could ever get into their suite Avenue Tombola and Social We just drove right on by We were on our way to the big time babe To the great gold record in the sky Can you tell me why? The Great Gold Record in the sky....
Driftwood
Justin Hayward
Just like the driftwood of a dream Left on the seashore of sleep Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme Lost in the desert of time Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I don't remember what was said In the confusion that night I only know what's on my mind What's in the future we will decide Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew
The Day We Meet Again
Justin Hayward
The day we meet again I'll be waiting there I'll be waiting there for you 'Cause the years have been so lonely Like a dog without a home It's dangerous when you find out You've been drinking on your own The day we meet again We will walk in peace Through the garden down the road Where the mist of time is lifting See it rising in the air Like the shadow I was chasing When I looked it wasn't there Oh, no But just in case you're wondering What was really on my mind It wasn't what you took, my love It's what you left behind And just in case you're wondering Will it really be the same? Will it really be the same? You know we're only living for The day we meet again So hold on And don't let go Time, it heals You know, I know The day we meet again I'll be waiting there I'll be waiting there for you 'Cause the years have been so lonely Like a dog without a home It's dangerous when you find out You've been drinking on your own The day we meet again We will walk in peace Through the garden down the road Where the mist of time is lifting See it rising in the air Like the shadow I was chasing When I looked, oh no, it wasn't there Oh no, it wasn't there It wasn't there Hold on baby, don't let go It wasn't there, oh no Hold on baby, don't let go
