Carole King - So far away

Tekst :

So far away, doesn t anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn t help to know you re just time away

Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could, but you re so far away

One more song about movin along the highway
Can t say much of anything that s new
If I could only work this life out my way
I d rather spend it bein close to you.

But you re so far away, doesn t anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn t help to know you re so far away

Yay-uh-ay-eee
Oh, so far away

Travelin around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothin else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don t come to own me
Yet so many dreams I ve yet to fin-ind

But you re so far away, doesn t anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn t help to know you re so far away

Yay-uh-ay-eee
Oh, so far away
Yay, you re so faaaaaar away

Carole King - Come down easy

Tekst :

Daytime run away
Nightimes seem so long
I m all right in the sunshine
But the evenings let me down
It sure is good to see you now
I m really glad you came
And I would tell you what I need
But it never feels the same

So come down easy
Let it come down slow
I ve been alone so long
that I just don t know what to do
And I don t want to lose you

How my life slips away
How the time goes by
And I know I belong here
Yes, I know, though I don t know why

Riding along with a friend of mine
Got enough space, got enough time
Pieces of fruit and glasses of wine
And love comes in the summertime
And I don t want to lose you

God bless the children
God bless us all
We are the children of Paradise
On our own now since the fall
All the things that are worth having
Are never ours to keep
Still I can see today could be
A good time for you and me
If you come down easy...

Carole King - A night this side of dying

Tekst :

I remember one young sister with rainbows in her eyes
Standing on a corner with the afternoon s supply
She spoke of other places, perhaps a better road
Then she asked if I could tell her where they kept the mother lode

Like a night this side of dying
Her day s inside the dropper on the shelf
When she hears her lifeline crying
Not a thing you say can stop her
When she just can t stop herself

I remember that July, the panic and the heat
The savage shine of summer, the strychnine in the street
The way they sold each other for a favor in glassine
The best of friends sold brothers for a dime of quinine dreams

Like a night this side of dying
Her day s inside the dropper on the shelf
Like the shelter she s been buying
Not a thing I ve got can save her
When she just can t save herself
She just can t save herself

Inne utwory

Losowe utwory

No stress

You ve always amazed me
you re making me crazy
i can t hide my frustration; i don t like generation
we don t need your imitation, somebody save me

we re out of control digging a hole it s making my head spin

Yellow light

He,y I can t get my head straight,
Of words we re twenty blocks too late.
Now the devil is in my face;
She seems to be looking down.
And hey, have you heard about Mr. Crow?
Well, I think so but I don t know.
Well, you can t...

Wishful thinking

I see you, but you don t see me
Like a ghost of the future, hovering dark and dreamy
You fade in and out of the mist
Do you even exist, except in my wishful thinking

I reach for you, but I can t touch you
I feel you...

Icons

I think it s starting again the same thing that happens when i m sure what i m thinking about is right but i don t know anything the
inhibitions decline decided to make up my mind i m sure what i m thinking is right but i don...

Little drummer boy

Come they told me our newborn King to see
Our finest gifts we bring to lay before the King
This is to honor him when we come
Baby Jesus I am a poor boy too I have no gift to bring that s fit to give a King
But may...
