Horizon

Morning opens quietly
A shadow vision
Over me
I know you well
Hidden by the windows pane
And all my sadness
Gone charade
Begins to fade
How long it stayed

Patters of another day
Awaken slowly
Out of gray
A tolling bell
Rolling down the alleyway
It's calling all
My dreams away
My dreams are songs I play

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
You been out ridin' fences
For so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
But I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you
If she's able
The queen of hearts
Is always your best bet

Now it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones
That you can't get

Desperado
Oh you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger
They're drivin' you home

Freedom, Ah freedom
That's just some people talkin'
You're prisoners walkin'
Through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time
From the day

You're losin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
Come down from your fences
Open the gate

It may be rainin'
But there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
You better let somebody love you
Before it's too late

After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness
In my own time nobody knew
The pain I was goin' through
And waitin' was all my heart could do

Hope was all I had until you came
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me
You were the dawn breaking the night
The promise of morning light
Filing the world surrounding me
When I hold you

(*) Baby, Baby
Feels like maybe things will be all right
Baby, Baby
Your love's made me
Free as a song singin' forever

(**) Only yesterday when I was sad
And I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave
The past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away

Only Yesterday

I have found my home here in your arms
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
Life waits for us
Share it with me
The best is about to be
So much is left for us to see
When I hold you

Repeat (*)
Repeat (**) twice

I have something to tell you
And I know it won't be easy
I've been thinking these past few days
It might be time to leave
You're like a stranger
Then you're a lover
Never the same
Always hard to believe

(*) I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Never knowing quite where I stand
I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Falling both ways nowhere to land
So constantly stranded
I can't understant it
This double life you've handed me
Is like the devil and the deep blue sea

If we go on much longer
If my doubts grow any stronger
Then I may have to let you go
If only to survive
Give me a reason
Why should I stary here?
I've tried so hard
Just to keep love alive

Repeat (*)

( Stop )
Oh yes, wait a minute
Mister Postman
( Wait )
Wait Mister Postman

(*) Please Mister Postman look and see
( Oh yeah )
If there's a letter in your bag for me
( Please, Please, Mister Postman )
Why's it takin' such a long time
( Oh yeah )
For me to hear from that boy of mine

There must be
Some word today
From my boyfriend
So far away
Please Mister Postman
Look and see
If there's a letter
A letter for me

I've been standin' here
Waitin' Mister Postman
So patiently
For just a card
Or just a letter
Sayin' he's returning'
Home to me

Repeat (*)

So many days
You passed me by
See the tears
Standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop
To make me feel better
By leavin' me
A card or a letter

Repeat (*)

( Why don't you check it and see one more time
for me you gotta )
Wait a minute, wait a minute...
( Mister Postman )
Mister Postman look and see

( C'mon deliver the letter, the sooner, the better )
Mister Postman
