Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
Switch on summer from a slot machine.
Yes, get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything.

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
so tell me, where do the children play?

Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas.
And you make them long, and you make them tough.
But they just go on and on, and it seems that you can't get off.

Oh, I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
so tell me, where do the children play?

Well you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air.
But will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Did I see you down
 in a young girl's town
 With your mother in so much pain?
 I was almost there
 at the top of the stairs
 With her screamin' in the rain.
 
Did she wake you up
 to tell you that
 It was only a change of plan?
 Dream up, dream up,
 let me fill your cup
 With the promise of a man.
 
Did I see you walking with the boys
 Though it was not hand in hand?
 And was some black face
 in a lonely place
 When you could understand?
 
Did she wake you up
 to tell you that
 It was only a change of plan?
 Dream up, dream up,
 let me fill your cup
 With the promise of a man.
 
Will I see you give
 more than I can take?
 Will I only harvest some?
 As the days fly past
 will we lose our grasp
 Or fuse it in the sun?
 
Did she wake you up
 to tell you that
 It was only a change of plan?
 Dream up, dream up,
 let me fill your cup
 With the promise of a man.

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone.

When you're down, and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, oh nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
Cause you've got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there yes I will

Now ain't it good to know you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you
And desert you
They'll take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yes I will
you've got a friend

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Ain't it good to know, ain't it good to know, yeah baby

You've got a friend

 Every time that I look in the mirror
all these lines on my face gettin clearer
the past is gone.....it went by.... like dust to dawn
isn't that the way, everybodys got their dues in life to pay....
yeah I know, knowbody knows, where it comes, and where it goes
I know everybodys sin, you got to lose.. to know how to win
half my lifes in books written pages..
live and learn from fools and from sages..
you know it's true... all the tings... come back to you
sing with me... sing for the years...
sing for the laughter... sing for the tears
sing with me just for today
cause maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take me away........
Dream on dream on dream yourself a dream come true
dream on dream on dream on dream untill your dreams come true

The rain, it started tappin' on the window near my bed
There was a loophole in my dreamin', so I got out of it
And to my surprise my eyes were wide and already open
Just my nightstand and my dresser where those nightmares had just been

So I dressed myself and left then, out into the gray streets
But everything seemed different and completely new to me
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings, even my own body
And each person I encountered, I couldn't wait to meet

And I came upon a doctor who appeared in quite poor health
I said, "There is nothing that I can do for you, you can do for yourself"
He said "Oh yes you can, just hold my hand, I think that would help"

So I sat with him a while then I asked him how he felt
He said, "I think I'm cured, in fact I'm sure"
Thank you stranger, "For your therapeutic smile"

So that's how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone
And your eyes must do some rainin' if you are ever gonna grow
When cryin' don't help you can't compose yourself
It's best to compose a poem, an honest verse of longing
Or simple song of hope

That's why I'm singin', baby don't worry, 'cause now I got your back
And every time you feel like cryin', I'm gonna try and make you laugh
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad, then we will wait for it to pass
And I will keep you company through those days so long and black

And we'll keep working on the problem we know we'll never solve
Of Love's uneven remainders, our lives are fractions of a whole
But if the world could remain within a frame like a painting on a wall

Then I think we would see the beauty then, we would stand staring in awe
At our still lives posed like a bowl of oranges
Like a story told by the fault lines and the soil

Hearts of fire creates love desire
Take you high and higher to the world you belong
Hearts of fire creates love desire
High and higher to your place on the throne

We’ve come together on this special day
To sing our message loud and clear
Looking back we’ve touched on sorrowful days
Future pass, they disappear

You will find of mind
If you look way down in your heart and soul
Don’t hesitate ‘cause the world seems cold
Stay young at heart ‘cause you’re never (never, never, ..) old at heart

That’s the way of the world
Plant your flower and you grow a pearl
A child is born with a heart of gold
The way of the world makes his heart grow cold

Hearts of fire creates love desire
Take you high and higher to the world you belong
Hearts of fire creates love desire
High and higher to your place on the throne

Hearts of fire
Love desire
High and high

Yea Yea Yea

Hearts of fire
Love desire
High and high

We’ve come together on this special day
To sing our message loud and clear
Looking back we’ve touched on sorrowful days
Future pass, they disappear

You will find of mind
If you look way down in your heart and soul
Stay young at heart 'cause you never, never, never yeaaaaa....

Thats the way of the world
Plant you flowers and you grow a pearl
Child is born with a heart of gold
Way of the world makes his heart so cold

And love and love and love.......
Won'tcha hear me now
Won'tcha hear me now
Hey yeaaa....
