No smoke without fire
When will you ever learn
That's what you said to me
Bigger the head that turns,
I say, maybe he's happy
So quick to fire, never a liar in honesty

It's hinged on a stranger thing

No smoke without fire
If the sky was light
And the moon shine brightly
Then we?d be away tonight
Better chance be taken
Than love forsaken
This ain't no mistake that I'm making.

Well, I been away,
I said I been away for so long.
Tell me, have you,
Have you done me wrong?
Can I tell by the look that's in your eyes,
Have you kept your loving locked away inside?
Can you shake the dust from off my shoes -
Take away these bad weather blues?

Flying over the Mississippi Delta,
John Lee Hooker on my mind,
my faith could move a mountain.
Heart full of Blues, Space and Time.

Took a long train to Memphis,
Stax of music on my mind.
Toss a coin into a fountain,

I didn't know what day it was that day,
Felt just like falling down on my knees to pray.
Looked at myself, and all that I could say
Was,"I think I see the errors of my way".

There in the glass there was something caught my eye,
Although I try through my sighing not to cry.
See where I am, and what I try to say,

If I don't get you in this life
I'll get you in the next one
I love you as much as anyone I love
Though we're only flesh and blood
I hope I'm not a dog or maybe a monkey
And I hope you'll never forget your promise to me

You said that you're a firesign

There was a man
He'd fought a war
He couldn't take the world we love
He swore to me he'd sail away in time
He found a girl who found in him
A love sublime

There was a plan

Front Page News

You made me feel good
After all this time,
Welcomed me home
With my name in lights,
Took me by the hand,
Shook away my fear,

Genevieve, genevieve.....

I went down to some backroom joint
Where I spent the night before,
Looking for the girl I love -
She left and wrote her name on my door.
She's got a guilty conscience of her own -
I've got to find out why she keeps running on,

I'll never write another song
For someone who just comes along -
The very thought of losing you
Is too much for me to.

The other day when you got mad,
It made you happy to see me sad.
I wish to tell you it's still the same,

I'm half past lovin'
And I got no more time for you,
Half past lovin'
And that's all that I can do.

Your hands keep movin'
But your face keeps standin' still.
I got no time to lose

Ooh, there's something happening, ooh.
Ooh, there's something happening, ooh. (repeat)
Won't you take my love forever,
Won't you take my love for you,
Won't you take my love together,
Won't you give me your love too?

I will give you my love gladly

Mother 's first look to the eyes of a child
Casts the die of destiny
It's a perfect life she gives to you
Not to lose so innocently
Leading the way, she rises above
Unexpected adversity
I hear her calling, keeper of the light
The words of warning, thunder in the night

Lady Whiskey, such a sad sight, stumblin' as she walks.
She even hates herself sometimes.
Keep her clear, for it's Saturday night.
Drowns her sorrow, eases her pain,
Waits for tomorrow, when she'll do the same again.
Lady Whiskey's got a man, her man is just like her -
Tries to fit the key in the door
When he comes home Saturday night.

Find myself beside a stream of empty thought,
Like a leaf that's fallen to the ground,
And carried by the flow of water to my dreams
Woken only by your sound.

Alone I've walked this path for many years,
Listened to the wind that calls my name.
The weeping trees of yesterday look so sad,

The sky is changing
The clouds are gathering, we can see
It's growing darker day by day,
But I'm so high

Within this stormy weather
God is the wind, could take my soul,
Even as I pray.

Why does love have to?
Where does it go to
Outta my door?
How much have you got?
Is it enough for me
Or will I want more?

Oh,oh, you tell me you just want some fun.

Lonely on an island shore
There’s no one around.
The day is grown older now
As I catch the thought of you.

I lay awake at night
With you on my mind;
Sleep drifts over me

You shone out of the darkness
The light in your eyes.
I could not help myself
I did not want to try.

Like the singing of the lorelei
Your voice rang clear and true
Mystery and danger was all I got from you.

They were fair and they were blond,
Laughing loud and singing songs,
Hoping for the best in life,
Heading for a paradise.
In the flash of an eye was born,
What would grow to become a storm,
When the fountain of youth was sprung,
Lost and gone, everyone.

Feeling light-headed as I caught her eye,
She was inviting as I passed her by.
Losing all freedom,
I fell to the ground.
She took me home later
And made me see why.

When you look through a haze,

It was a night, yeah, the kind of night
Left me pacing 'cross the floor.
It was a dream, like those other dreams,
So many times before.

I went back to the old town,
To the streets I used to roam,
And I looked into my daddy's eyes

Rock 'n' roll keeps draggin' me
Where I don't know and you can't see
Cities rollin' by and by
Twist my arm and sting my eye

Walk me in the right direction
Stamp your feet and shout
We can laugh and play around

Hey you know
Baby don't care who's mad about her,
Always got the boys hanging out to get her,
Knows just when to smile
But she can bite like a crocodile.
Don't want to get heavy, don't ask me why,
Got everything in place from her foot to her eyelash.
Just might dance, but not for a while

There's a light that shines on persephone,
Always a fire in her eyes,
And the last time that i went to her
I could tell things weren't right.

I just don't care to see your years go wasting,
There's no longer magic in your eyes.

I can tell that you don't feel good
I guess you're not alone.
Now that you packed your things
And you're ready to go
Let's do something tonight I don't know.

We can take a ride across town
Come on, baby, get your clothes on.

Morning morning give me something
Open my eyes to a new way
Wailing sailing wind of wonder
Carry me cross your dividing line

Ships in the sky, I've seen 'em pass by
Shining bright in the night
Don't look behind you

I met a man who felt the same way,
That the world had passed him by.
Told to me all his troubles,
That the world had made him cry.

Life had kept him waiting,
Regretting his pain inside.
Had to feel underrated,

The wind and the moon are behind me
I feel like a highway man of old
Don’t give no mercy I don’t need no alibi
I’m out to pick me some love from the jewelled sky

Watch for me by the moonlight
If hell doesn’t block my way
And you will be my prize of the night

Flying through the sky
His true love waits.
Lonely time's gone by.
There's a problem at the border
He learns they won't let him through.

She was standing in the rain.
She waits in vain for you.

Surface, surface, surface,
It’s beginning to show.
To air, to air, to air,
To where you can go.
Abrasion can wear you away.
All you wanted was to go out and play.
Time to fix this crack in the eagle
Before she flies away.

In the fire, the king will come.
Thunder rolls, piper and drum.
Evil sons, overrun,
Count their sins - judgment comes.

The checkerboard of nights and days -
Man will die, man be saved.
The sky will fall, the earth will pray,

The grey mist ushers in the day.
A beggar walks along the king’s highway.
Where does he come from? who can tell?
They can’t escape the gaze they know so well.

The dream came true in far off lands.
He always knew she’d understand.

Throw down the sword,
The fight is done and over,
Neither lost, neither won.
To cast away the fury of the battle
And turn my weary eyes for home.

There were times when I stood at death's own door
Only hoping for an answer.

Have you ever made a sign
Could you be a friend of mine?
Could I place my trust in you
Would you see my point of view?
Take from me what you have to
Take my steps to guide you through.
There's no time to find a way
Now I see the light of day.

Underground,
They want us to go underground.
Underground,
They want us to go underground.
You've got the right,
You've got the right to say what you think
You've got to fight,
Cause they're leading us to the brink.

Breathing is a sin, they say,
Loneliness is the price to pay.
Sad for you, I go once more.
I'll dry my eyes on a distant shore.

No way of freezing your rising tide
No way of keeping you by my side.
Like a bird, I'll fly high,

I’m leaving to search for something new,
Leaving everything I ever knew.
A hundred years in the sunshine
Hasn’t taught me all there is to know.

In the valley, we will gather there,
Helpless in our surrender.
Tomorrow the plow becomes the sword -

We stand as one
Till the bitter end
We shall not run
You will not win

We fight as one
'Till our dying day
Our time has come

She was born in a spirit of brightness
Knew just how to deal with poison wine.

Be very brave, she taught me to behave
On the road that is so long.
Be not afraid of tears,
When you know the love
Then you can know no fear.

I've seen you in black and white
Like a silent movie,
But your colours came through tonight
You really threw me.
Wings of desire will carry us to where we want to be.
Wings of desire will keep us flying for eternity.

I'm riding on a wave of love too blue to lose me.

Among the stars on this side of heaven
I lay broken and destroyed.
When people on the earth have cut you down
The sky's the only place to hide.
And as I floated in the moonlit night
You arrived to take me home.
I kissed your hand and I came back to life
And all the wrong became all right.

When a days work is done
And you're down on the ground
You come home just to find
That she's not around.

You see red, you see red,
When she takes you for a fool.
You see red, you see red

Was sat down by my fire, hear a voice of desire,

Want to be friends again.

I keep tellin' you,man, she's only a pain.

She don't fit in my scene,
