I hear the drizzle of the rain 
Like a memory it falls 
Soft and warm continuing 
Tapping on my roof and walls 

My mind’s distracted and confused 
My thoughts are many miles away 
They lie with you when you’re asleep 
Kiss you when you start the day 

And as I watch the drops of rain 
Weave their weary paths and die 
I know that I am like the rain 
There before the grace of you go I

. . .



Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he always gone too long anytime he goes away
I wonder this time where he's gone
Wonder how long he's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away

Well I know I know I know...
When he's gone 
Always gone too long anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away

. . .



Sell me a ticket for that airplane 
I ain’t got time to take a fast train 
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home 
My baby wrote me a letter 

Bridge
And I don’t care how much I gotta spend 
I gotta get back to my baby again 
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home 
My baby wrote me a letter 

Chorus
Well he wrote me a letter 
Said he couldn’t live without me no more 
Ohh listen Mister can you see 
I gotta get back to my baby once more anyway 

Bridge

Chorus

Bridge

Sell me a ticket for that airplane 
I ain’t got time to take a fast train 
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home 
My baby wrote me a letter

. . .



At last my love has come along 
My lonely days are over 
And life is like a song 
Ohh yeah 
At last the skies above are blue 
And my heart was wrapped in clover 
The night I looked at you 

I found a dream that I could speak to 
A dream that I could call my own 
I found a thrill to press my cheek to 
A thrill that I have never known 
Oh yeah yeah 

You smiled ohh and then the spell was cast 
And here we are in heaven 
For you are mine at last 
For you are mine at last

. . .



Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories
Time after

Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say--go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

Chorus
If you're lost you can look--and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows--you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time--

Chorus

You said go slow--
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds--

Chorus

Time after time
Time after time 
Time after time
Time after time

Bill and I got married following our first born 
Daddy left this gas & convenience store just before he died 
And I was only nineteen when I had my third baby 
And sometimes I think maybe I should’ve left here long ago 

Travellers are stopping by, check their oil and their p.s.i. 
Gas up and away to fly, moving down the line 
But this beat-up truck & worn out shoes always give me the blues 
Billy sucking down the booze nearly every night 

Chorus
I never seen the city lights 
How they must shine so bright 
Not like this country night 
The sky’s black as coal 
And this gas-station mountain home 
Not a thing to call my own 
How I wish I was alone 
With a penny to my name 

Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare 
But it’s just a dumb old mountain; I see it every day 
If I could see sunset skies over fields of green or ocean-tides, 
City skyline in the night, I’ll be dancing till the dawn 

Chorus

Bill and I got married following our first born 
Daddy left this gas & convenience store just before he died 
Maybe Bill & I someday will find a chance to get away 
Until then it’s here I’ll stay wishing on a star 

Chorus

. . .



I wandered by a brookside 
I wandered by a mill 
I could not hear the water 
The murmuring it was still 
Not a sound of any grasshopper 
Nor the chirp of any bird 
But the beating of my own heart 
Was the only sound I heard 

The beating of my own heart 
Was the only sound I heard 

Then silent tears fast flowing 
When someone stood beside 
A hand upon my shoulder 
I knew the touch was kind 
He drew me near and nearer 
We neither spoke one word 
But the beating of our own two hearts 
Was the only sound I heard 

The beating of our own two hearts 
Was the only sound I heard

. . .



When I was single
I went dressed up so fine
Now I am married Lord
And I go ragged all the time
Oh, Lord, don't I wish I was a single girl again.

I got dishes to wash
And springs to go to
When you are married, Lord
You know you got it all to do.
Oh, Lord, don't I wish I was a single girl again.
Yeah, Oh, Lord, don't I wish I was a single girl again.

. . .



It's Sunday morning
I can feel inside the facts
You shake out your body
And you wake up what's late
You spent too much money last night
And I had too much to drink
Spending too much time with myself
And I don't know what to think

Any love is easy
Falls down like rain
Any love is easy
Goes out with a bad name
Any love that you find on easy street
Can only be a dream
Any love that you find on easy street
Can only be a dream

It was only for pleasure
Our love took a backseat
My heart went crazy
And my whole life skipped a beat
Shallow deed took motion down to kill it after a taste
Staring to the future now I can only see your face

Any love is easy
Falls down like rain
Any love is easy
Goes out with a bad name
Any love that you find on easy street
Can only be a dream
Any love that you find on easy street
Can only be a dream
Only a dream

. . .



Today has been a special day 
An anniversary, a request 
That you play your piano 
As the evening sun slowly sets 

Chorus
I never thought I’d get this old dear 
Never had a reason to live so long 
And the Lord’s been like my shadow 
Even when I was wrong 
No I never thought it would turn out this way 

A birthday with apologies 
For all the tears and the rest 
And I’ve always saved your poetry 
For those years when you forget 

Chorus

So sing with me softly 
As the day turns to night 
And later I’ll dream of paradise with you 
I love you and good night

. . .



I came upon a child of God 
He was walking along the road
And I asked him "Tell me where are you going?” 
This he told me
"I'm going down to Yasgur's farm
Gonna join in a rock and roll band
Got to get back to the land 
And get my soul free” 

We are stardust, we’re golden 
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

Can I walk along beside you 
I have come here to lose the smog
And I feel like I’m a part 
Of something turning round and round 
And maybe it’s the time of year
Maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am
But life is for learning ... 

We are stardust, we’re golden 
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was the song 
And the celebration 
And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planes 
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into butterflies
Above our nation ...

We are stardust, we’re golden 
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

. . .



Oh do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Oh do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Way beyond the blue 

Oh I’ve got a home in Glory Land 
That outshines the sun 
Oh I’ve got a home in Glory Land 
That outshines the sun 
Oh I’ve got a home in Glory Land 
That outshines the sun 
Way beyond the blue 

Oh do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Oh do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Oh do Lord, oh do Lord 
Oh do you remember me? 
Way beyond the blue 

Hmm, mmm …. 
Way beyond the blue
