Imagine

Imagine there’s no heaven, it’s easy if you try
No hell below us, above us only sky
Imagine all the people, living for today heeeheeey
 
Imagine there’s no countries, it isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too
Imagine all the people, living life in peace heeeheee’s
 
You may say i’m a dreamer, but i’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will live as one
 
Imagine no posessions, I wonder if you can
No need for freed or hunger, a brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people, sharing all the world
 
You may say i’m a dreamer, but i’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will live as one

Hotel california


On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair,
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night.
There she stood in the doorway,
I heard a mission bell
And I was thinking to myself:
This could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices in the corridor
I thought I heard them say
 
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place, such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, any time of year
You can find it here
 
Her mind is tiffany twisted,
She’s got a mercedes benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boy’s
She call’s friend’s
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summerswet
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget.
So I called up the captain: “please bring me my wine”
He said:”we haven’t had that spirit here since 1969”
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
 
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place, such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, any time of year
You can find it here
 
Mirrors on the ceilings, you drink champagne on ice,
They said :” we are all just prisoners here, of our own divice”
And in the masters chambers they gatherd for the feast
Stabbed with their steely knives,
But they just can’t kill the beast.
 
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place, such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, any time of year
You can find it here

Sound of silence

Hello darkness my old friend,
I’ve come to talk with you again.
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds when I was sleeping.
And the vision, that was planted, in my brain,
Still remains, within the sound, of silence
 
In restless dreams I walk alone,
Through narrow streets of cobblestone.
Beneath the nalo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed, by the flash of a neon light,
Split the night, and touched the sound, of silence
 
In the naked light I saw,
Tenthousend people, maybe more,
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs, that voices, never shared,
No one dared, disturb, the sound of silence
 
Fools said I, you do not know,
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words, like silent, raindrops fell
And ecoed, in the wells, of silence
 
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out it’s warning
In the words that it was forming
And the signs and the words, of the prophets are written
On the subway walls, and tenement halls
And wisper, in the sound, of silence

Blowing in the wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they’re forever banned
 
The answer my friends, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
 
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it’s washed to the sea
How man years can some people exist
Before they’re allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head Pretending he just doesn’t see
 
Howe many times must a man look up
Before he cab see the sky
How many years must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
How many death will it take till he knows
That too many people have died

Radar love

I’ve been driving all night my hands wet on the wheel,
As the voice in my head that drive my heal,
So my baby calls and sa’d “I need you here”
And it’s a half past four and I’m a shifting gear.
When she’s lonely, and she longing as to much,
She sends a cavebird coming in a from above,
Don’t need a broken arm! ohhhhh
Weeee’ve got it made with that supposed, radar love,
Weeee’ve got it made, in the end.
 
Radar love!
 
The radio is playing some forgotten song,
Wendely, is coming on strong,
The road has got me hypnotized,
And I was spinning into a new sunrise,
Well I get lonely and I am shore I had enough,
She sends a cavebird coming in a from above,
We don’t need it never at all,.ohhhh
Weeee’ve got it made, that’s a cold radar love, Weeee’ve got the end, in the sky
 
Radar love!
 
No more speed I am almost there,
Got to keep kool now got to take care,
Last car to pass, here I go,
And a line of cars go down the slooope,
And the radio played that forgotten song,
Wendely, is coming on strong,
And the newsman sang, he’s seen some
Oh one more radar lover gone
 
Radar love!
 
When I get lonely and I am sure I’ve had enough,
She sends a comefort coming in a from above,
We don’t need no lover at all
Weee’ve got it made, with that’s cold radar love
Weee’ve got to ly to the sky
Weee’ve got it made, with that’s cold radar love
Weee’ve got it made, with that!!
 
Radar love

House of the rising sun

There is a house in new orleans
They call the rising sun
It’s been, the ruin of many poor boy’s
And god I know I’ve won.
 
My mother was a taylor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gambling man
Down in new orleans
 
Now the only thing a gambler needs
It’s a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he’s satisfied
It’s wen he’s on the drunk
 
Oh, mother tell your children
Not to do what I’ve done
Spent your live sin and misery
In the house of the rising sun
 
Well I’ve got one foot on the platform
The other on the train
I’m going back to new orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Yesterday

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday
 
Suddenly, I’m not half the man I used to be
There’s a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly
 
Why she had to go I don’t know
She would not say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
 
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday

Let it be

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darknes
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, just let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
 
And when the broken harted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For tough they will be parted there
Is still a chance that they will see
Ther will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, just let it be
Ther will be an answer, let it be
 
And when the night is cloudy, there is
Still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, just let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Morning has broken

Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing, fresh from the world
 
Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dew fall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness, of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness, where his feet pass
 
Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the onde light, eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God’s recreation, of the new day.

Sailing

I’m sailing, i’m sailing
Home again -- cross the sea,
I’m sailing, stormy water’s
To be near you -- to be free
 
I’m flying, i’m flying
Like a bird -- cross the sky,
I’m flying, passing high clouds,
To be near you – who can say
 
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Through the dark night – far away
I’m dying, for ever trying
To be near you – who can say
 
We are sailing, we are sailing
Home again – cross the sea
We are sailing, stormy water’s
To be near you -- to be free
