You Left Me.

As I walked down the street today,

I watched the women walk on by.

None of them could match your style,

I think I loved you all along.

Whatever may happen life goes on,

Pack up your troubles and have some fun.

At the end of the day when living is done,

You just stand firm and face the sun.

But you left me recently

To wake up all alone in bed.

I lay where your warmth once was

When you left me.

Women come and women go,

Each one has the right to show.

But you showed me all along,

You were right and I was wrong.

Whatever life may have in store,

Try to have some fun once more.

At the end of the day when living is done,

Only you can light up my sun.

When I woke up in the dreary morn.

I think I love you more and more.

But now you’ve gone and I’m alone,

Come back and warm my bed again.

Come back.

You left me.

Come back, come back.

Drifting.

I’m drifting

Just wasting time,

I’m drifting

Since you won’t be mine

Can’t hang around,

‘Cos there’s too much pain,

Got to get on

Because I’m going away.

Could have all changed

If you had agreed.

I tried all night,

Went down on my knees.

So I’m drifting

Just wasting time,

I’m drifting

Since you won’t be mine.

What lies ahead

For my troubled mind,

Will love again

I ever find?

I’m drifting

You made me go,

I’m drifting

But you’ll never know.

Now I’m all alone

Out on the road,

Can’t get away

From this heavy load.

This way or that

Where do I go?

Drifting along

And out of my head.

I’m drifting

Just wasting time,

I’m drifting

Since you won’t be mine.

Can’t hang around

There’s too much pain.

Got to get on,

With my life again.

Going Down.

Now we’re down here on our own,

Speaking in a different tongue.

Free from worries and stress too,

Life’s a battle that we’ve won.

Going down,

Going down,

Down

Down, to the Southern lands.

Can you truly say to me

You never wanted to be free.

Free to judge your own mistakes,

Free to do what ever it takes.

Going down,

Going down,

Down

Down, to the Southern lands.

We lay and watched the sun go down,

On another perfect day.

Hand in hand up on the hill

Watching love come back this way.

Going down,

Going down,

Down

Down, to the Southern lands.

Oh for certain one thing I know,

You’ve got to take that chance and go.

Go down to where the sun shines warm,

And give your lives a chance to form.

Going down,

Going down,

Down

Down, to the Southern lands.

Walking Through the Surf at Midnight.

(Male voice)

When I first saw you,

When I first saw the light,

It shone from where you lay

Under a beach umbrella.

I saw you everyday

But you didn’t notice me.

You sat and read your book

Didn’t give me a single look.

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

Well the days went by,

Why was I so shy?

You looked too good for me,

Maybe just my insecurity.

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

Then one day you were gone,

No more days in the sun.

I sat under the beach umbrella,

All alone.

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

(Female Voice)

Well some may think it sad,

But I was on the beach alone.

Wanting to be a little bad

Under a beach umbrella.

From the corner of my eye,

Looking at me I saw a guy.

I wished he would come over and say,

Can I offer love today?

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

You kept on passing me this way,

Please come over to me to play.

But I hid behind my book,

Never dared to really look.

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

My last day on the beach was gone,

No more days in the sun.

I could see the beach from the taxi home,

Someone new under the beach umbrella.

Walking through the surf at midnight,

But I  still can’t escape my dreams.

Thinking ‘bout last time I saw you,

Wondering how it might have been.

Finding Love.

I saw you from afar,

Driving a pink sports car.

I tried in vain to catch you eye,

But you just drove on by.

Give me the time of day,

Please don’t just drive away.

I have something to offer you,

Perhaps love can come true.

Next time I saw you was in the park,

Just as the day was getting dark.

You looked at me but didn’t smile,

Perhaps you will though in awhile.

Give me the time of day,

Please don’t just walk away.

I have something to offer you,

Perhaps love can come true.

Later that night at a dance in town,

I saw you moving on the floor.

A short black skirt, hair flowing down,

All I could do was stand and stare.

Give me the time of day,

Please don’t just dance away.

I have something to offer you,

Perhaps love can come true.

You came over and took my hand,

I followed you to another land.

You never spoke, your eyes said more,

And now I know what love is for.

You gave me the time of day,

Now I know you’re going to stay.

I have something to offer you,

Now I know that love is true.

Fire Dancer.

For those that do believe

In the power of good.

Let them come to see

The dance on burning wood.

The man he was a priest,

And in a trance he came.

Prepared by virgin girls

Amongst the choral wails.

The fire glowed on the ground.

The priest danced round and round.

His eyes closed to the world,

Then in the fire he leapt.

For those that do believe

In the power of good.

Let them come to see

The dance on burning wood.
