Yeah, we're on I would like to leave this city This old town don't smell too pretty and I can feel the warning signs Running around my mind And when I leave this island I'll book myself into a soul asylum 'Cause I can feel the warning signs Running around my mind So here I go I'm still scratching around in the same old hole My body feels young but my mind is very old So what do you say? You can't give me the dreams that are mine anyway You're half the world away Half the world away Half the world away I've been lost, I've been found but I don't feel down And when I leave this planet You know I'd stay but I just can't stand it and I can feel the warning signs Running around my mind And if I could leave this spirit I'd find me a hole and I'll live in it and I can feel the warning signs Running around my mind Here I go I'm still scratching around in the same old hole My body feels young but my mind is very old So what do you say? You can't give me the dreams that are mine anyway Half the world away Half the world away Half the world away I've been lost, I've been found but I don't feel down No, I don't feel down No, I don't feel down I don't feel down I don't feel down I don't feel down I don't feel down

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune, oh Yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be Maybe that's because you're the other half of me Like the spring in bloom the summer of our love is soon Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune Sent down from above, unconditionally love Likened to a flower, stronger love grows by the hour Stormy weather days make us go our separate ways Where our love was so at ease Now you got me down on my knees, hey Yesterday I was brighter than the mornin' sun Now my love is lost and lonely days have just begun A solitary chair for a silent love affair A king has lost his throne, now he sits alone, hey hey Oh, hey, every bird will sing, hey Oh, now, every bird will sing Every bird will sing the, sing the melody of the love tune Oh, every bird, every bird Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune, hey I wanna tell you, alright Yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be Oh, maybe that's because you're the other half of me Like the spring in bloom the summer of our love is soon, now Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune Oh, yeah, ooh, every bird will sing the melody, the melody Did I tell you? Darlin', yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be Maybe that's because you're the other half of me Like the spring in bloom, the summer of our love is soon Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune Every bird, every bird Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

We are secrets to each other Each ones life a novel no one else has read Even joined in bonds of love We're linked to one another by such slender threads We are planets to each other Drifting in our orbits to a brief eclipse Each of us a world apart Alone and yet together like to passing ships Just between us I think its time for us to recognize The differences we sometimes fear to show Just between us I think it's time for us to realize The spaces in between Leave room For you and I to grow We are strangers to each other Full of sliding panels An illusion show Acting well rehearsed routines Or playing from the heart? It's hard for one to know Just between us I think it's time for us to recognize The differences we sometimes fear to show Just between us I think it's time for us to realize The spaces in between Leave room For you and I to grow We are islands to each other Building hopeful bridges on a troubled sea Some are burned or swept away Some we would not choose But we're not always free Just between us I think it's time for us to recognize The differences we sometimes fear to show Just between us I think it's time for us to realize The spaces in between Leave room for you and to grow

If I could wave my magic wand I am made from the dust of the stars And the oceans flow in my veins Here I hide in the heart of the city Like a stranger coming out of the rain The evening plane rises up from the runway Over constellations of light I look down into a million houses And wonder what you're doing tonight If I could wave my magic wand I'd make everything all right I'm not one to believe in magic But I sometimes have a second sight I'm not one with a sense of proportion When my heart still changes overnight I had a dream of a winter garden A midnight rendezvous Silver, blue and frozen silence What a fool I was for you I had a dream of the open water I was swimming away out to sea So deep I could never touch bottom What a fool I used to be If I could wave my magic wand I'd set everybody free I'm not one to believe in magic Though my memory has a second sight I'm not one to go pointing my finger When I radiate more heat than light Don't ask me, I'm just improvising My illusion of careless flight Can't you see my temperature's rising? I radiate more heat than light Don't ask me, I'm just sympathizing My illusion's a harmless flight Can't you see my temperature's rising? I radiate more heat than light I'm not one to believe in magic But I sometimes have a second sight I'm not one with a sense of proportion When my heart still changes overnight I'm not one to believe in magic (If I could wave my magic wand) Though my memory has a second sight (I'd make everything all right) I'm not one to go pointing my finger (If I could wave my magic wand) When I radiate more heat than light (I'd set everybody free) I'm not one to believe in magic (If I could wave my magic wand) I'm not one to believe in magic

The snakes and arrows a child is heir to Are enough to leave a thousand cuts We build our defenses, a place of safety And leave the darker places unexplored Sometimes the fortress is too strong Or the love is too weak What should have been our armor Becomes a sharp and angry sword Our better natures seek elevation A refuge for the coming night No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one We hold beliefs as a consolation A way to take us out of ourselves Meditation, or medication A comfort, or a promised reward Sometimes that spirit is too strong Or the flesh is too weak Sometimes the need is just too great For the solace we seek The suit of shining armor Becomes a keen and bloody sword No one gets to their heaven without a fight A refuge for the coming night A future of eternal light No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one Confused alarms of struggle and flight Blood is drained of color By the flashes of artillery light No one gets to their heaven without a fight The battle flags are flown At the feet of a god unknown No one gets to their heaven, heaven No one gets to their heaven without a fight Sometimes the damage is too great Or the will is too weak What should have been our armor Becomes a sharp and burning sword No one gets to their heaven without a fight A refuge for the coming night A future of eternal light No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one No one gets to their heaven without a fight

Well, you can stake that claim Good work is the key to good fortune Winners take that praise Losers seldom take that blame If they don't take that game And sometimes the winner takes nothing We draw our own designs Fortune has to make that frame We go out in the world and take our chances Fate is just the weight of circumstances That's the way that lady luck dances So roll the bones Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Faith is cold as ice Why are little ones born only to suffer For the want of immunity or a bowl of rice?

We come into the world and take our chances Fate is just the weight of circumstances That's the way that lady luck dances Roll the bones Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen? Jack relax, get busy with the facts No zodiacs or almanacs, no maniacs in polyester slacks Just the facts gonna kick some gluteus max It's a parallax, you dig? You move around, the small gets big, it's a rig It's action, reaction, random interaction So who's afraid of a little abstraction? Can't get no satisfaction from the facts? You better run, boy A fact's a fact, from Nome to Rome, boy What's the deal, spin the wheel If the dice are hot, take a shot Play your cards, show us what you got What you're holding, if the cards are cold don't go folding Luck is golden, she favors the bold, that's cold Stop throwing stones, the night has a thousand saxophones So get out there and rock and roll the bones, get busy Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones Because we're here
