Little Brother
04:17
|

Though it hardly seems like yesterday it wasn't long ago
That little brother's bubble gum was stuck here
I remember mother's great surprise it wasn't me you know
He got into the oven on his own, I fear
Little brother, when you take the world by storm
Little brother, keep your nose out of where it don't belong
Little brother
We were one big happy family for Sunday at the zoo
The lions were asleep, the bears were restless
So, I merely tried to hold him up, to get a better view
He slipped out of my hands on the way down, I guess
How can one so small cause all this trouble by himself?
You'd suspect that maybe he had help from someone else
Always seems like I get blamed for all of his mistakes
Mom, I don't see why we need a little brother after all
Little brother, when you take the world by storm
Little brother, keep your nose out of where it don't belong
Little brother
Yo no tengo la paciencia
No lo quiero el niño
Este es un chico malo
Es un ablastino
Little brother, when you take the world by storm
Little brother, keep your nose out of where it don't belong
Little brother
Little brother, little brother, little brother
Little brother, little brother, little brother
Little brother, little brother, little brother
Little brother, little brother, little brother, yeah
(Yeah, hey, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Little, little brother
Ah, little, little brother
Hey, yeah, yeah
Little, little, little, little, little brother
Little, little, little brother
Little, little, little brother
Ah, little, little, little brother
Yeah, little brother

Standing On The Inside
04:47
|

Standing on the outside
Looking in
You know it's been a long time
Don't know where to begin
So much I wanna say
So much I wanna do
Friends are telling me
It's time that you broke through
I've been through the hard times
Of searching soul
You know it's been a hard climb
From rock and roll
Now I feel a need in me
So hard to explain
Now I've seen the joy and light
And I wanna remain
Standing on the inside
I finally broke that line
Ring around the circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine
Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I kicked away them blues
All the phoney faces
Stand in line
All the backslappers
Know my name this time
Now that I've turned the lock
Now that I've opened the door
I won't be on the outside, no
Anymore
Standing on the inside
I finally broke that line
Ring around the circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine
Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I pushed away them blues
Now that I've turned the lock
Now that I've opened the door
I won't be on the outside, no
Anymore
Standing on the inside
I finally broke that line
Ring around the circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine
Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I kicked away them blues
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked (standing on the inside)
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked (standing on the inside)
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)
I'm on the inside
Standing on the inside
I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked
Babe, baby, yeah

Stumbling along
Someone somewhere's been neglecting things
I've known all along
It's wrong to go about expecting things
But looking for love in this city
Is like getting burned without feeling the pain
Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain
Chilled by the breeze
Autumn shadows are concealing things
Worn at the knees
Dungarees begin revealing things
Lord, I'm so low and lonely
Worst of all is this rain keeps on falling
Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lord, I'm so low and lonely
Worst of all is this rain keeps on falling
Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain
All alone in New York in the rain

Caribbean Rainbow
03:17
|

Sailin', glidin' on the water
A sailor's life is a life that's free
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me
I call her Caribbean Rainbow
She's always been my lover
Whichever way the wind blows
That's where she's takin' me, takin' me
I go sailin', I go glidin' on the water
A sailor's life is a life that's free
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me
Her sails are all silk and sing in
Harmony with the weather
She keeps my head together
Way out across the sea, 'cross the sea
I go sailin', I go glidin' on the water
A sailor's life is a life that's free
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow
Sail me away
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow
Sail me away
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow
Come on, come on sail me away
Come on, come on Caribbean Rainbow, come on, come on
Sail me away
I go sailin', I go glidin' on the water
A sailor's life is a life that's free, so easy, yeah
Sail Caribbean Rainbow
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me

Let Daddy Know
03:21
|
|||
Baby, there's a tear, fallin' from your eye
You know when I'm around, you ain't supposed to cry
When you feel up-tight, Im here to make it right
Let daddy know, let daddy know
On a cloudy day, when you're all alone
I'll only be as far as your telephone
My number's on the wall, don't be afraid to call
Let daddy know
Let me be the one who turns you on to sunshine
If anybody ever brings you down
When you need some love and understandin'
Count on me, I'll always be around
If this crazy world should ever get in your way
I'll turn the earth around,
and whip you up a brand new day
When it comes to you, there's nothin' I can't do
Let daddy know
If this crazy world should ever get in your way
I'll turn the earth around,
and whip you up a brand new day
When it comes to you, there's nothin' I can't do
Let daddy know, let daddy know
You gotta let your daddy know

Suspicions
03:22
|
|||
They say, you know
You're really a thing with the sailors
You go overboard so easily
Is it true that you are a personal friend of James Taylor's?
Tell me, is it true what they say about you?
Tell me, if you please
Ease my suspicions
Ease my suspicions
You live your life
Just like you was a part of the scenery
You got yourself a handy camoflage
You try like hell
To constantly avoid me
Tell me, what is it you got hidden in your garage?
Tell me, is it true what they say about you?
Tell me, if you please
Ease my suspicions
Ease my suspicions
Tell me, is it true what they say about you?
Tell me, if you please
Ease my suspicions
Ease my suspicions

Love
Love will keep us together
Think of me, babe, whenever
Some sweet talking guy comes along
Singing his song
Don't mess around
You gotta be strong
Just stop
Cause I really love ya
Stop
I'll be thinking of ya
Look in my heart and let love
Keep us together
You
You belong to me now
Ain't gonna set you free now
When those guys start haning around
Talking me down
Hear with your heart and you won't hear a sound
Just stop
Cause I really love ya
Stop
I'll be thinking of ya
Look in my heart and let love
Keep us together
Whatever
Young and beautiful
But someday your looks will be gone
When the others turn you off
Who'll be turning you on?
I will
I will
I will
I will be there to share forever
Love will keep us together
I've said it before and I'll say it again
While others pretend
I'll need you now
And I'll need you then
Just stop
Cause I really love ya
Stop
I'll be thinking of ya
Look in my heart and let love
Keep us together
Whatever
I will
I will
I will
I will
Stop
Cause I really love ya
Stop
I'll be thinking of ya
Look in my heart and let love
Keep us together
Whatever
I will
I will
I will
I will
Yeah

The Other Side Of Me
03:39
|
|||
You think you know me pretty well
But how can you tell
You never get inside my head
The times we talk
We never speak
We play hide and seek
So many things are left unsaid
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me?
The side of me
That reaches out to you
Sweet thoughts and dreams
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
That wind and bend
Rivers with no end
Flowing on the other side of me
It seems I always get unstrung
I trip on my tongue
With words that come out something else
I'm so afraid the things I say
Might chase you away
I have to hide behind myself
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me
The side of me
That reaches out to you
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied?
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
I have to hide behind myself
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me?
The side of me
That reaches out to you
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied?
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me
On the other side of me
On the other side of me

Once a cheerleader loved a classroom clown
I wrote your name across the old playground
That old school spirit is still hangin' round
You gave me your heart and I gave you a ring
Such a beautiful thing
And it starts me singin'
Hey, pretty little schoolgirl
Hey hey hey, you're still my little schoolgirl
Love may come, love may fall
You're the sweetest one of all
And I still recall our rock and roll wedding day
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la
We always love to put them oldies on
Still get excited 'bout our favourite song
You never lost that little schoolgirl charm
You sit on my lap at the end of the day
I get carried away
Don't you hear me sayin'
Hey, pretty little schoolgirl
Hey hey hey, you're still my little schoolgirl
Love may come, love may fall
You're the sweetest one of all
And I still recall our rock and roll wedding day
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la
Hey, pretty little schoolgirl
Hey hey hey, you're still my little schoolgirl
Singin' hey, pretty little schoolgirl
Hey hey hey, you're still my little schoolgirl...

For Peace And Love
03:01
|
|||
I believe that maybe someday
We will write the perfect melody
One to fill the empty spaces
Faces here have never smiled so brightly
I've imagined that I loved you
More than anyone could love someone
After all I'm only human
I do what I can, takin' a stand
For peace and love
Hard and troubled times surround me
Men below, they have no sympathy
All the chords I strike are cryin'
Dyin' to be heard from deep inside me
I believe that maybe someday
When the world has had its way with me
Part of me will still be human
To do what I can, takin' a stand
For peace and love
To do what I can, Takin' a stand
For peace and love

Our Last Song Together
04:03
|
|||
Days of devils, kings, and clowns
Angel songs and birthday tunes
Valentines and wishing wells
Magic stairways, moons, and Junes
Silly rhymes, monkeyshines
Pictures on a stage
'Round and 'round the records go
Time to turn the page
This will be our last song together
Words will only make us cry
This will be our last song together
There's no other way we can say goodbye
Misty faces, far off places
Came and danced across the room (Across the room)
Sha-la-las and doo-be-downs, the sounds that chased away the gloom
Yesterday is yesterday, the past is dead and gone
Nostalgia just gets in the way, let's stop hanging on
This will be our last song together
Words will only make us cry
This will be our last song together
There's no other way we can say goodbye
The la-la-la-la-la
The la-la-la, the la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Now we go our separate ways and leave the world we used to know
My scratchy worn-out '45, an echo on the radio
The tra-la days are over, those days of me and you
Now we know that breaking up is really hard to do
This will be our last song together
Words will only make us cry
This will be our last song together
There's no other way we can say goodbye
The la-la-la-la-la
The la-la-la, the la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
This will be our last song together
Words will only make us cry
This will be our last song together
There's no other way we can say goodbye
