Earth I
might be at a table And
suddenly I'll catch A
fleeting vision of her crystal seas Or
I might be standing in a crowded dockyard faraway Underneath
the sun I've never seen Because
I have seen many worlds For
what it's worth But
I'll never see again the planet earth My
earth I
might be chasing waves of light Out
towards the rim Where
stars are sparse And
the cold of space seeps in But
I might be in a bar room Drinking
methylated gin And
thinking of the places I have been Yes
I have seen many worlds For
what it's worth But
I'll never see again the planet earth My
earth I
have seen many worlds For
what it's worth But
I'll never see again the planet earth My
earth Cast
adrift amongst the stars I
float from sun to sun Dreaming
of the world that gave me birth All
the places I have been Remind
me there is none To
match the cool green rolling hills of earth Because
I have seen many worlds For
what it's worth But
I'll never see again the planet earth My earth Step
On Me Know
what I said when I saw you crying Hang
on that's folly I
was weak in the head I believed your lying You're
just a bad memory My
life was going to be better My
why could I never ever see she'd step on me Well
I talked to your friend just the other day I
was gonna look and raise a smile And
she hid a smile and she ain't like you Been
asleep from all the journeys a little while My
life was going to be better My
why could I never ever see she'd step on me Step
on me,step on me,step on me Now
it's so good I won't waste my time On
a two year old picture of you Oh
now that you're gone everything's fine But
you probably think that we're through My
life was going to be better My
why could I never ever see she'd step on me Step
on me,step on me,step on me Now
it's so good I won't waste my time On
a two year old picture of you Oh
now that you're gone everything's fine But
you probably think that we're through My
life was going to be better My
why could I never ever see she'd step on me Never
ever see she'd step on me Doin
All Right Yesterday
my life was in ruin Now
today I know what I'm doing Gotta
feeling I should be doing alright Doing
alright Where
will I be this time tomorrow Jumps
with joy or sinking in sorrow Anyway
I should be doing alright Doing
alright Should
be waiting for the sun Anyway
I've got to hide Going
back to where the skies are blue Going
home to find the one Should
be waiting for the sun Anyway
I've got to hide Yesterday
my life was in ruin Now
today I know what I'm doing Gotta
feeling I should be doing alright Doing
alright Doing
alright Blag Do
do do... Take
away my sunshine You
take away my rain I
can see it in your eyes There
must be an answer somewhere You
can find a way I
can see it in your eye Do
do do... Polar
Bear In
the bright shop window sits the polar bear Makes
the children's eyes light up to see him there Amongst
the tinsel he gives everyone a smile To
see him as you'd see a star Love
him from where you are He's
not for,not for,not for sale Past
an open window walks the pretty girl Does
she see me at her feet it's hard to tell But
if I ask her she might turn her smile away To
see her as I'd see a star Love
her from where you are She's
not for,not for,not for sale I
guess I'll learn to look Without
a grasping hand Minor
contentment wears a smile I
love her from where I lie He's
not for,not for,not for sale Not
for sale April
Lady She
won our hearts the arts she loved Is
painting pictures for free When
she was done she hung them up For
all the children to see Goodbye
April lady It's
been good to have you around Goodbye
April lady You've
done a lot for the folks in this town The
children learned to read She
strung their beads It's
sorry she was the one As

don't leave nothing undone Goodbye
April lady It's
been good to have you around Goodbye
April lady You've
done a lot for the folks in this town She
taught them all to love She
was their cream And
we don't want her to go But
we know too well She
fell in love And
there's no stopping her so Goodbye
April lady It's
been good to have you around Goodbye
April lady You've
done a lot for the folks in this town Goodbye
