1.DIALOGUE

Part I

Terry
Are you optimistic
'bout the way things are going?

Peter
No, I nver ever think of it at all

Terry
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?

Peter
No, I try to mind my business,
that is, no business at all

Terry
When it's time to function
as a feeling human being, will your
Bachelor of Arts help you get by?

Peter
I hope to study further,
a few more years or so. I also hope
to keep a steady high

Terry
Will you try to change
things, use the power that you have,
the power of a million new ideas?

Peter
What is this power you
speak of and this need for things to
change? I always thought
that everything was fine

Terry
Don't you feel repression just
closing in around?

Peter
No, the campus here is very, very free

Terry
Does it make you angry
the way war is dragging on?

Peter
Well, I hope the President
knows what he's into, I don't know

Terry
Don't you ever see the starvation
in the city where you live, all the
needless hunger all the
needless pain?

Peter
I haven't been there lately,
the country is so fine, but my
neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause
they haven't got the time

Terry
Thank you for the talk,
you know you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes
of things to come.

Peter
Well, if you had my
outlook your feelings would be
numb, you'd always think
that everything was fine

Part II

Group
We can make it happen
We can change the world now
We can save the children
We can make it better
We can make it happen
We can save the children
We can make it happen


2.OLD DAYS

Good times I remember
Fun days
Filled with ship of pleasure
Drive-in movies
Comic books and blue jeans
Howdy Doody
Baseball cards and birthdays
Please take me back
To the world gone away
Memories
Seem like yesterday

Old days
Good times I remember
Gold days
Days I'll always treasure
Funny faces
Full of love and laughter
Funny places
Summer nights and streetcars
Take me back
To the world gone away
Our good memories
Seem like yesterday

Old days...


3.ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU

Headed north on a one way trip
I never thought I'd be back this way
Never thought I'd be missing you
enough to suffer for the whole night through
headed south and I didn't look back
I rolled the wind off the beaten track
tried running from the thought of you
hunted down by what I know is true

To the north, to the south
it don't matter
every road leads to you
I'm coming home.....

All roads lead to you
wherever I go
every time I told you I was just passing through
what my heart didn't know
was all roads lead to you

Headed east on an Amtrak train
I hit the city in the pouring rain
never thought I'd be calling you
every hour from that hotel room
headed west on a jumbo jet
I rode off into the red sunset
stood there knocking on the devil's door
wond'ring what the hell I'm searching for

To the east to the west
it don't matter
every road leads to you
I'm coming home.....

All my life
the winding road I followed
has led me straight to your arms


4.LOVE ME TOMORROW

She said, 'It's lonely here tonight'
She's always sad when she's alone
She said 'I need you here tonight'
She couldn't wait 'til I get home
She loves me
And that's all I need to know
She's part of my life
Just a part I won't let go

Then she said
'Love me tomorrow
Won't you please, promise me
Love me tomorrow like today
Love me tomorrow
Hurry back, can't you see
I need you more than yesterday'

You know it's always cold at night
It's always lonely 'til the dawn
You know it's not what we put on (?)
Knowing she's there, I'll carry on
Because she loves me
And that's all I need to know
She's part of my life
Just a part I won't let go

Then she said
'Love me tomorrow
Won't you please, promise me
Love me tomorrow like today
Love me tomorrow
Hurry back, can't you see
I need you more than any words could say'

She loves me
And that's all I need to know
She's part of my life
Just a part I won't let go

Then she said
'Love me tomorrow
Won't you please, promise me
Love me tomorrow like today
Love me tomorrow
Hurry back, can't you see
Need you much more than yesterday
Love me tomorrow
Hurry back, can't you see
Need you much more than yesterday
Love me tomorrow
Love me tomorrow like today
Love me tomorrow
I need you much more than yesterday
Love me tomorrow
Love me tomorrow like today'


5.BABY, WHAT A BIG SURPRISE

Right before my very eyes
I thought that you were only fakin' it
And like before my heart was takin' it.

Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.

Yesterday it seemed to me
My life was nothing more than wasted time
But here today you've softly changed my mind.

Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.

Just to be alone
Was a little more than I could take
Then you came to stay
Hold me in the morning
Love me in the afternoon
Help me find my way.

Now and then just like before
I think about thhe love I've thrown away
But now it doesn't matter anyway.
Baby, what a big surprise.


6.YOU'RE NOT ALONE

I see you there, a silhouette in the moonlight;
looks like you've given up on love.
You used to be the face in the spotlight;
now lonliness fits you like a glove.
You walk around in your cloak of darkness,
too blind to see the light.
Your wings are broken, now your spirit can't take flight.

You're not alone, you're not alone,
while your heart's still young and free.
You're not alone, pick up the phone
and talk to me; baby, you will see
you're not alone.

Pools of sorrow and tears of joy;
There's a broken-up girl for every broken-down boy.
But you don't wanna hear it,
you like the rhythm of the blues;
Wanna be a sad story on the late-night news.
I don't mean to burst your bubble,
but the world's got troubles worse than you.
And everybody else out here gets lonely too.

You're not alone, you're not alone,
I;ve been waiting patiently.
No, you're not alone, pick up the phone
and talk to me, baby, you will see...

Although your heart is in pieces,
you can't find a reason to try.
You're not alone, while I'm still standing by.


7.WHAT KIND OF MAN WOULD I BE?

Girl, well, it's been one of those days again
And it seems like the harder I try
Over and over, I'm right back where I began
But you understand
Oh, girl, when nothing else in this world goes right
Oh, I just want to run to you
You pull me through
Oh, baby, who wouldn't wanna have you in their lives?

Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I have to live without you
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?

Times when it was pointless for me to try
I was more than a desperate man
What seemed like forever
Was gone with one touch of your hand
Oh, girl, if I could count all the sleepless nights
When you were there for me
A broken chain
Woh, baby, Once I had found you there was no letting go

Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I have to live without you
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?

Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I have to live without you
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?

What kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I have to live without you
Tell me, what kind of man
Tell me, what kind of man
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
(What kind of man would I be?)
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
(What kind of man would I be?)


8.NO TELL LOVER

Pretty smile lovely face and a warm breeze now I need you lady
You're my no tell lover
Every night in a different place I'll meet you tender lady
You're my no tell lover

Everyone keeps tellin' me that this affair's not meant to be
Even though I need you night and day
Walk away if you see me coming, even if it's you I'm lovin'

Every minute is an hour every day's a lonely lifetime
You're my no tell lover
The little time that we spend together just can't last forever
You're my no tell lover

Everyone keeps tellin' me that this affair's not meant to be
Even though I need you night and day
Walk away if you see me coming even though it's you I'm lovin'
I want her
I can't leave her
I won't live without her
There's nothing left to say
I want her
I can't leave her

Pretty smile, lovely face and a warm breeze now I need you lady
You're my no tell lover
Every night in a different place I'll need you tender lady
You're my no tell lover

Everyone keeps tellin' me this affair's not meant to be
Even though I need you night and day
Walk away if you see me coming even though it's you I'm lovin'

I want her
I can't leave her
I won't live without her
She's my no tell lover


9.SHOW ME A SIGN

I wonder what been on your mind
Baby, I don know
Something strange is going on
Seems that your so far away
Got to bring you back
Next to me

Is there a thread we can hold on to
Or just a broken seem
Is there a promise for tomorrow
Or just a shattered dream
If only we could see things through

Show me a sign (Show me a sign girl)
I won turn away
Hold on to the light (Never let go)
It l show you the way

Even in the worst times
If we got lost baby we could work it out
I need to know you l always be
Here by my side
Next to me

I l be the one that you can lean on
I never leave you behind
We e got enough to live and dream on
So baby say you l be mine
You need me just like I need you

Show me a sign (Show me a sign girl)
I won turn away
Hold on to the light (Never let go)
It l show you the way

I belive our love a miracle
We can find a way
Listen baby

I won turn away

Show me a sign (Show me a sign)
I won turn away (Girl)
Hold on to the light (Never let go)
It l show you the way

Show me a sign (Show me a sign girl)
I won turn away
Hold on to the light (Never let go girl)
It l show you the way


10.I'VE BEEN SEARCHIN' SO LONG

As my life goes on I believe
Somehow something's changed
Something deep inside
Ooh a part of me

There's a strange new light in my eyes
Things I've never known
Changin' my life
Changin' me

I've been searchin'
So long
To find an answer
Now I know my life has meaning
Ow oh

Now I see myself as I am
Feeling very free
Life is everything
Ooh it's meant to be
When my tears have come to an end
I will understand
What I left behind
Part of me

I've been searching
So long
To find and answer
Now I know my life has meaning
Woah woah

Searching
Don't you know I'm hell yeah
For an answer
To the question
Oh yeah
For our minds
Baby
Baby it's true
It's only natural
It's only natural baby, yeah
Good things
In life
Take a long time
yeah yeah


11.CALL ON ME

The feelin' was clear
Clear as a blue sky on a sunday day
Everything was you
'Cause no one made me feel
The way I felt with you
Call on me 'cause
I love you
You know I do
You love me too

Then came a change
When I said I would soon be leavin' you
Nothin' else to do
Please remember I never lose the thought of you
Call on me 'cause
I love you
You know I do
You love me too

You've got to find
Someone else to somehow take my place
Share his life with you
But if you need a friend
You can always count on me
Count on me 'cause
I love you
You know I do
You love me too

You can count on me oh
You can count on me
You can count on me baby
You can count on me

You can count on me baby
You can count on me
You can count on me oh
You can count on me
You can count on me baby
You can count on me
You can count on me oh
You can count on me


12.I DON'T WANNA LIVE WITHOUT YOUR LOVE

Thought it wouldn't matter
If we didn't stay together
And if it was over
Baby, it was for the better
I was thinking I'd be all right
'Til I thought it all through
Now I know that I ain't really living
If I have to live without you

I don't wanna live without your love
I don't wanna face the night alone
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own
I don't wanna love nobody else
I don't wanna find somebody new
I don't wanna live without your love
I just wanna live my life with you
With you

Guess I had to go away
So much I had to go through
Guess I had to lose you
To realize how much I love you
Can we make the fires burn again?
Burn a little stronger
'Cause I've been alone, and baby
I can't be alone any longer

I don't wanna live without your love
I don't wanna face the night alone
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own
I don't wanna love nobody else
I don't wanna find somebody new
I don't wanna live without your love
I just wanna live my life with you

If I had to make it on my own
My life would never be the same
My love would never be the same
And I don't wanna live without your love

I don't wanna live without your love
I don't wanna face the night alone
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own
I don't wanna love nobody else
I don't wanna find somebody new
I don't wanna live without your love
I just wanna live my life with you

I don't wanna live without your love
I don't wanna face the night alone (I don't wanna live)
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own
I don't wanna love nobody else (Don't wanna love nobody else)
I don't wanna find somebody new
I don't wanna live without your love
I just wanna live my life with you (Live my life with you)


13.FEELIN' STRONGER EVERY DAY

I do believe in you
And I know you believe in me
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
And now we realize
Love's not all that it's supposed to be
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

And knowing that you would have wanted it this way
I do believe I'm feelin' stronger every day

I know we really tried
Together we had love inside
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
So now the time has come
For both of us to live on the run
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

And knowing that you would have wanted it this way
I do believe I'm feelin' stronger every day

Feeling stronger every day


14.STAY THE NIGHT

I don't want you to misunderstand me
I just want to say what's on my mind
No need to hit me with an attitude
Because I haven't got the time

I want you to know one thing is certain
I truly love your company
I won't take no if that's your answer
At least, that's my philosophy

Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
Stay the night, why don't we call it a day
No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way

It comes from friendly conversation
And if you still don't have a clue
Unless there's something else you've got in mind
We've got better things to do

Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
Stay the night, why don't we call it a day
No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way

(Just to have you near me) Here by my side
(Just to have you near me) And when I get next to your body
(Just to have you near me) Oh
One thing I can tell you, we're gonna be fine
We're gonna have a very good time!

Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
Stay the night, why don't we call it a day
No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way

Woooooh, woooooh, woooooh
No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way
What do you wanna say?

Stay the night
Stay the night


15.I'M A MAN

Well my pad is very messy, got whiskers on my chin
Never had no problems 'cause I've always paid the rent
I got no time for lovin'
Cause my time is all used up
I stand outside creatin'
All the groovy kinds of love
I'm a man, yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Oh baby
I'm a man, yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Yes I am

If I had my choice of matter
I'd would rather be with cats
All engrossed in mental chatter,
Showing where your mind is at
While relating to each other
How strong the love can be By resisting all the good times with
each groovy chick we see
I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Oooh, I'm a man, yes I am
I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I love to hear you talk

I've got to keep my image
While I'm standing on the floo
If I drop upon my knees
It's just to keep them on my nose
You think that I'm not human
And my heart is made of stone
But I've never had no problems
And my body's is pretty strong

I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes I know
I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Oooh
Man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Good god I love you so, love you so

If I had my choice of matter
I would rather be with cats
All engrossed in mental chatter
Knowin' where your mind is at
While relating to each other
How good a love can be
By resisting all the good times with each groovy chick we see

I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Yes I am
I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
Yeah, yeah yeah. I'm a
Man yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a man, ooh yes I am

I gotta keep my image
While I'm standin on the floor
If I drop upon my knees
It's just to keep them on my nose
You think that I'm not human
And my heart is made of stone
But I never had no problems
And my body's pretty strong

I'm a
Man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
Owww.. I'm A
Man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
Man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
Man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so


16.25 OR 6 TO 4

Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Dancing lights againnst the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4

Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should have tried to do some more
25 or 6 to 4

Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4
