Long Island Sound
04:51

Voices call, and they echo all around
The fog rolls in, and rests its soul upon me
The foghorns blow, and they ring out through the town
Take me home; I can hear that Long Island Sound.
Take me home to the Long Island Sound
Where dust and ashes float like pollen.
I can not see, nor taste, nor smell, nor feel it
But take me home; I can hear it, I can hear it!
Take my hand, take my heart and keep it.
As songbirds fly across horizons
I lay her down and watch her drift beneath it.
"Long Island Sound!" she cries, "Can you hear it?"
Take me home to the Long Island Sound
Where dust and ashes float like pollen.
I can not see, nor taste, nor smell, nor feel it.
But take me home; I can hear it, I can hear it!

Come What May

Come with me, let's go away
We can drive 'cross the country.
Feel your worries melt away
Day by day.
If we leave now we'll both be ok.
Cloudy is the month of May
Here at home winter lingers.
But hope is hiding with the rain
Don't delay.
Come this June-time we'll both be ok.
Summer's left and gone away
On a plane to Seattle.
Blue is fading into gray
And I pray
When we get there we'll both be ok.
If you were here with me today
I would say my love's unending.
But nothing gold can stay,
So they say.
Come what may will we both be ok?

Love
04:00

I woke up singing just the other day
My oh my, that sky was absent any gray
You wouldn't believe the way I hoped that sky would stay
Just like everybody, just like everyone
Sometimes it feels like all of life's a game
And all my pieces lying out in disarray
Aw, but I look at you my friend and feel ok
'cause I could be anybody; I could be anyone
Mama, all I need is love, love love.
Love is here and love is here to stay
Love is everywhere my friend, there's no debate.
And maybe I love you more than any words could say
But you could be anybody; you could be anyone
Mama, all you need is love; I'm telling you all you need is love
Darling, all you need is love, love, love.

Mr. McClear
02:44
|

|
Mr. McClear flew away from here
To his private isle in the corner of the southern hemisphere
And on the isle McClear, he disappeared.
Mrs. McClear - looking in the mirror...
She was thinking over the words he whispered softly in her ear
So long ago, that she'll never know if what was told was sincere.

Amazing Grace/River Song
03:52
|

|
There was a boy by the river
He sat on the bank all day long.
Drinking his wine and just passing his time from dusk 'til dawn
And he's gone.
There was a girl in the river
She'd jumped in with all her clothes.
Drifting along, she was singing her song and tapping her toes
There she goes.
Sing for the ones who are gone now,
And all those days gone by.
Sing for the love watching up above the sky blue sky.
Love, love, wave goodbye.
