Lost Tracks Lyrics

DARKNESS AND THE NIGHT

A million tears go by
In the darkness of the night
I can hear them cry
but they won't stand up and fight

But it's gone
The darkness and the night
There's a new dawn
And it’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I can see the light

Seven years before
Was a little young girl in my life
I woke up and found I needed more
Til I found myself in the night

But it's gone
The darkness and the night
There's a new dawn
And it’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I can see the light

Seven years before
Was a little young girl in my life
I woke up and found I needed more
Til I found myself in the night

But it's gone
The darkness and the night
There's a new dawn,
And it’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I can see the light

THE BEGGAR

Do you fear the beggar who fits at your gate
Beard feathered with fears of now
Though he smiles softly with his arrows of fate
Still his life is wearied with fears of now

Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
When he wants it now

See his age still offset
He the gate open and slowly he flies
See his habit tattered his shame cheek pale
Looks proudly waving in his air

Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
When he wants it now

Do you, do you

Feel the beggar fear of him now
Feel the beggar fear of him now

Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
When he wants it now

Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar
Do you fear the beggar

Do you

Fear of him now

I LIVE FOR TODAY

Well, I’m never going off in a hurry
I don’t wear buckle shoes
People around me they seem to worry

I’ve got nothing to lose
People there with their long hair
Are hip and grooving cool
Way down San Francisco
If you only knew

Walk the streets in the city
Any time night or day
People fussing trying to be pretty
Watching what they say

Hey! I’m never jealous
When I hear someone say
Stop worrying how we’re looking
Let’s live for today

Well I never read
What I should be doing
Nothing gets in my way
I’ve got good things going

I live for today
I live for today
I live for today
I live for today
I live for today
I live for today

I live for today

1400 Miles

1400 Miles and too many ways from home
If I didn't have to earn these dollars, we'd be spending some time alone
Drivin down the highway, you’re always on my mind
I tried callin you from Minnesota, but I got a busy line

And it's takin too much of my time
It's takin too much of my time
It's takin too much of my time
It's takin too much of my time
Going down this road

Miles turn into years as you go down the road
A man’s self-worth is measured in silver and gold
High in this airplane, seems like I’m always in flight
Tried callin her from Dallas, and when I got her on the line, and she said

Takin too much of my time
You’ve takin too much of my time
You’re takin too much of my time
You’re takin too much of my time
Going down this road

One of these days she’ll stop cryin
Her bags packed for parts unknown
Inside her heart she is dying
Before then find a way, the money’s not important
And I got to get away
Before then find a way, the money’s not important
And I got to get away
Off of this road
Away, off of this road

Well I'm tired and it’s gettin old
And it’s taking too much of my time on this road

It’s takin too much of my time on this road
It’s takin too much of my time on this road
It’s takin too much

Well I'm tiredand it’s gettinold

And it’s taking too much of my time on this road

UPON THE STREET

I can see a thousand miles, farther than yesterday
I can see a rooftop, made out of clay
I’ve made my mind up
And I want to climb up, climb up, climb up, and see today

I can hear a bird sing
Where I hadn’t before
I can hear the rainfall, and I’ll tell you more
I can see the sunshine
And I’ll tell you it’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine today

And I can see people, they're standing everywhere
Upon the street, and in the square

I can hear people laugh
That aren’t there
I can see money left, but what do I care
I’ve made my mind up, and I want to climb up, climb up, climb up and see today

Awwwww-----awwww---------awwwww awwwww
Whooo whooo whooo

WHITE HORSE

Sing all hail to the man on the white horse
Brave strong leader fear the dark not
Rode into the lair of what he knew not
His men were slaughtered in the face of his worth

See the man ride off to war
See his horse falter as death claims one more, as death claims one more

Sing all praise to the man on the black horse
Brave strong leader who loved the light not
Rode into the lair of what he knew not
The lamb was slaughtered in the face of his mirth

Hoping our eyes will meet

Strangers in love, waiting all our lives

I found a new world

Being with you

It's not the cruel world

That I once knew

I'm not making a proclamation

All I'm doing is sayin

I found a new world

When I found you

It's hard to reason

What life can be

Until your true love

And you can see

An old man sighing

A new born baby crying

This is the true world

It's got to be

I'm not making a proclamation

All I'm doing is sayin

I found a new world

When I found you

Mr. Biological man

MR. BIOLOGICAL MAN

TRY AND HELP ME UNDERSTAND

WHAT THIS CRAZY FEELING INSIDE

EVERYTIME I SEE HER WALK BY

MR. MAN, MR. MAN

MR. MAN, BIOLOGICAL MAN

IT'S SOMETHING JUST KEEPS AILING ME

WHETHER I'M HOME OR WHETHER I'M GONE

HER KISS TAKES THE PAIN AWAY

AND WHEN I'M BY MYSELF

I TELL YOU I NEED HELP

MR. BIOLOGICAL MAN

TRY AND HELP ME UNDERSTAND

WHAT THIS CRAZY FEELING INSIDE

EVERYTIME I SEE HER WALK BY

MR. MAN, MR. MAN

MR. MAN

Flanders fields

Let me show you

A lovely place in Flanders

Lonely people, waiting for you to gather

And you wonder

Why limp watches
are hanging

On charred tree
stumps

Look around and see

Where love and hate
has left them

Tell yourselves
that you won’t forget them

When you return, raise
up your voices

To anyone who will
hear, hear

And you wonder

Why limp watches
are hanging

On charred tree
stumps

Let me show you

A lovely place in Flanders

Lonely people, waiting for you to gather

And you wonder

Why limp watches
are hanging

On charred tree
stumps

Stumps, Stumps

Are you going, are you going
