Nobody's perfect And that's something that I'm sure she'll know 'Cause trying to tell her lies from the truth at times Is like trying to divide ice from snow And when I knew it was over I jumped into a taxi and said "Just guess where to go" And the driver turned about and said, "Finding what you want is like Trying to divide ice from snow" So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning I couldn't care less I couldn't care less And nobody's helpless Although I've never felt this helpless before And trying to persuade myself not to think about her Is like trying to tell the clouds not to pour So I put down the bottle While in my head-time is collapsing and the currents run cold So I can curse her memory, but don't try telling me That she was not the emerald in a mountain of coal Or there's a crock of cures for cancer at the end of the rainbow So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning, I couldn't care less And she's the kind of girl who won't forgive but will forget So take me from this party, driver put me back to bed I wanted to be loved but just got laughed at instead So if this taxi is for hire, I'll get in the back Just to feel the friction of the tarmac and the tires So nobody's perfect And that's something that I'm sure she'll know Trying to persuade myself not to think about her Is like trying to tell the cockerels not to crow Or like trying to tell the striker not to think about the goal So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning Yeah, from this side of the morning Yeah, from this side of the morning I couldn't care less

Balloons flying, children sighing What a day to go kite flying Breezes cool, away from school Cowboys fighting out a duel Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world it always will Fishes biting, so exciting Lunchtime sounds so inviting Angler Bill, he gets a thrill Sitting, watching bobbing quill Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world it always will Yesterday's dreams Are tomorrow's sighs Watch children playing They seem so wise Mary Green today's a queen One thousand dollies are a-dreaming Cotton frocks and golden locks Her palace is an orange box Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world it always will

Time they call the universal healer But you're back every three days, settling all around me A feather duster's no substitute for the real thing And the dust you left behind is settling still With you dawn never tasted so good Swept up like debris on a Saturday night, did we ever have fun? The dust, the gentle legacy You left behind Is falling softly on my mind Dust, the timeless memory of you I love you, I do for all the little things you do And I guess I always will The dust settles again to remind me still Of a memories I've cherished so long Hold me close to your side 'Cause my love won't decay anymore Memories of hope of those long summer days And the dust you left behind is settling still With you dawn never tasted so good Swept up like debris on a Saturday night, did we ever have fun? And the dust, the gentle legacy, You left behind Is falling softly on my mind Dust, the timeless memory of you I love you, I do for all the little things you do And I guess I always will The dust settles again to remind me still Of a memories I've cherished so long Feeling your body stretched so long What was it, went so wrong? That our love, our love it was gone, oh it was gone But our friendship going strong, gone strong, so much strong, oh Going strong, going strong, oh Feeling your body stretched so long, stretched so long What was it, went so wrong, went wrong That our love, that our love it was gone, gone, gone, gone But our friendship going strong, gone strong Going strong, going strong, going strong

Different light Searching for the truth I find That I am running quite short of time And I am no longer certain of my destiny Different light Things that I once thought were right Are now reflected in a different light\ And it seemed that I overlooked a part of me I had overlooked a part of me I was escaping my reality Different light Searching for the truth I find Is that what I thought was peace of mind? It was only me escaping my reality I had overlooked a part of me I was escaping my reality I had questioned my philosophy So that I can see the truth in me Searching for the truth I found out what I thought would be Peace of mind Things that should've stayed the same Are prone to change Now I've seen a little light I had overlooked a part of me I was escaping my reality I have questioned my philosophy So that I could see the truth in me Different Light I had overlooked a part of me I was escaping my reality And I have questioned my philosophy So that I could see the truth in me

Think about it There must be a higher love Down in the heart and in the stars above Without it Life is wasted time Look inside your heart, I'll look inside of mine Things look so bad everywhere In this world, what's fair? We walk blind and we try to see Falling behind in what could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's this higher love I've been thinking of? World's a-turnin' We're just hanging on Facing our fears standing out there alone Oh we're yearning, and it's real for me There must be someone who's feeling for me Things look so bad everywhere In this world, what's fair? We walk blind and we try to see Falling behind in what could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's this higher love I've been thinking of? I will wait for it I'm not too late for it Until then, I'll sing my song To cheer the night along I can light the night up with my soul on fire I can make the sun shine from pure desire Let me feel the love come over me Let me feel how strong it can be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love I could rise above for this higher love
