stride
A friend of mine just the other day. Tellin’ me how she’s got to
get away. Write it down in a song. You know you can’t go on livin’
this way to long. Baby, baby, baby’s been untrue. But right now there
ain’t nothin’ left for you to do.
Chorus
I can see the stars in your eyes. And I just don’t know if I can take
it any more. I can see the love in your stride. And I just don’t know
what I’m waitin’ for…
Can’t you see I’m a simple man I’ve got simple dreams. It
ain’t so hard to see things ain’t always what they seem. Lay it
down in a song. You know you can’t go on livin’ this way to long.
Baby, baby, you know that I would play the fool for loosin’ you. But right
now there ain’t nothin’ left for me to do.
Chorus
Can’t you see love ain’t all it’s cracked up to be. Sometime’s
it ain’t nothin’ like you believe. You gotta lay it down in a song.
You know you can’t go on livin’ this way to long. Baby, baby, baby
I have come unglued for you. But right now there ain’t nothin’ left
for me to do.

joni's song
It doesn't matter what you do. Baby you're good as good, true as true.
And I'm not tryin' to flatter you 5000 miles. Away from your sweet kisses and
your lullabyes.
Chorus
There's a feelin' in the air tonight. That somewhere, somehow you're alright.
There's a feelin' in the air tonight.
Your love is sweet apple pie. Your heart: perfect paradise. Beautiful lady I
feel like I. Have known you all of my life.
Asleep at night; a smile on your face. Just like lemonade on a hot summer day.
You are the oasis in the middle of my soul. I want to hold you and never let
you go.

shine
I was livin’ in New York city 1985. I saw this guy he blew my mind. He
played the guitar like it was a star. Shining a little light on you and me.
I said man thank you. I love the way you play the Dylan tune. He just smiled
and danced around the room. With bells on his shoes the Good Jester moved. To
the rhythm of the sun.
Chorus
So if you’re gonna live. Well you might as well live a little. And if
you’re gonna give. Don’t make it your own. The Good Jester left
us with the spirit of song. Shinning a little light on you and me.
I made my way across the USA. And I heard him play again and again. His fans
connected but the oracle rejected. That he sang his own words. I saw him on
his way to heaven 1997. He said he’d see me again. He sang us a gospelas
he banged on his drum. And he laughed when he told me Windam Hill wouldn’t
take that one
Chorus
I said man thank you. I love the way you play the Dylan tune. Just a little
sad you had to leave so soon. With bells on his shoes. The Good Jester moved
to the rhythm of the sun

great big
world
Well well my friend it seems as though again it's time for leaving. And as a
friend I must confess without duress you don't need a reason. Time will teach
the songs to sing when the good times are missin'. And as for the pretty girl
you might as well just leave your heart with her. There's lots of pretty girls
livin' in this great big world
Four years and forty thousand tears, man I think its four-twenty. And I'm gettin'
out of here I'm just going to need a little money. You know we lived a lot and
we wrote a little little-town history. But you knew what Tapscott got and you
gave away the Mystery. It's hard being heard when you're livin' in a great big
world. livin' in a great big world.
Now I'll never be the one to sympathize. But I'll run the rapids of your tears
and I'll hold it all inside. Who says a man's got to swallow his pride. Hide
it away... Hide it away
Now you can leave this town grieve about it if you want to. And you can stick
around invite all your demons to haunt you. Write a song for science, save the
world, be a scholar. Play guitar, shine like a star for a million dollars. Yes
its hard being heard when you're livin' in a great big world livin' in a great
big world.

cosmic sympathy
You had love man it was all around. A gift from above you put people at ease.
And just like the sun shinin’ down. Around you you were easy to be. You
didn’t wait you didn’t hesitate. Life is for living. And I had faith
in my eyes to see. Another 20,000 sunsets.
Chorus
And I don’t think to wonder why. Look up at the stars and celebrate this
life. It isn’t all that big of mystery. We can be together with a little
Cosmic Sympathy.
The sun didn’t shine much this spring. And it snowed like hell on the
mountain. The winter sky cried a little to long. Like a love song after the
love is gone.
Chorus
The seasons change and some things stay the same. The folks ‘round here
still talk about you. The autumn wind is blowin’ winter in again. And
the snow is gonna fly real soon.

on the radio
Chorus
I know I can write it. Better than the last guy wrote it. And I know the people
will buy it. When my lawyer gets it on the radio.
Just got back from the city today. A million souls—gone. Beggars and brokers
buying time. Searchin’ for the groove in the Starbucks line. I hear the
market’s down today. “Don’t sell out you’ll be OK”.
Doesn’t mean much when you’re out of luck. And you just need a little
caffeine. You know what I mean…
Chorus
I love to watch rich girls shop. I love to hear that money talk. Music and shoes
and cheap perfume. I love the way they consume… It doesn’t matter
if you win the bet. When everything you want is everything you get. Some say
it’s a cryin’ shame. But I love those rich girls all the same…
