1. _ How Can I Leave You Again
di di di di di la la la la la la
In a spaceship over the mountains
Chasing rainbows in the setting sun
Leaving heart and home for the city of angels
I feel my life is undone
There are pathways winding below me
In pleasure i've gone where they go
In the quiet stillness i can hear symphonies
The loveliest music i know
How can i leave you again
I must be clear out of my mind
Lost in a storm i've gone blind
Oh, how can i leave you again
Oh, it's been a long time since i've listened
Still longer since i've walked with you
For the first time i know what i'm missing
Some answers are no longer true
So i question the course that i follow
I'm doubtful and deep in despair
My heart is full of impossible notions
Can it be you no longer care?
Still, i ride on the wings of a high wind
Blowing steady and strong behind me
As the clouds surrender my fate is for certain
I'm a sailor who runs to the sea
How can i leave you again
I must be clear out of my mind
Lost in a storm i've gone blind
Oh, how can i leave you again

It's cold here in the city
It always seems that way
And i've been thinking about you almost everyday
Thinking about the good times
Thinking about the rain
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again
I'm sorry for the way things are in china
I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself

3. _ The Cowboy And The Lady
This song was first released on the some days are diamonds album. it is the only album it has been released on.
In the airport lounge she sat in a marlena dietrich hat
The grandest lady i had ever seen
Outside the heavy rains had grounded all the planes
So i asked her if she'd like some company
In my rhinestone studded suit, my cowboy hat and boots
I must have been a sight for her to see
But she said, "pull up a chair," as she fumbled with her hair
A more unlikely pair you'll never see
I was mogen david wine, she was chablis fifty-nine
But there we sat, the cowboy and the lady
She was evenings at the opera and summers in paree
I was grand ole opry, nashville, tennessee
The cowboy and the lady
As diff'rent as could be
But it seemed so right that rainy night
In tennessee
Then somewhere in between her harey's bristol creme
And the seven beers i ordered for the lady
We somehow came together for a night of stormy weather
Now there's a bit of class in this old cowboy
And there's a little bit of cowboy in the lady
The cowboy and the lady
As diff'rent as could be
But it seemed so right that rainy night
In tennessee
We somehow came together for a night of stormy weather
Now there's a bit of class in this old cowboy
And there's a little bit of cowboy in the lady

All of her days have gone soft and cloudy
All of her dreams have gone dry
All of her nights have gone sad and shady
She's getting ready to fly
Fly away, fly away, fly away
Life in the city can make you crazy
For sounds of the sand and the sea
Life in a high-rise can make you hungry
For things that you can't even see
Fly away, fly away, fly away
In this whole world there's nobody as lonely as she
There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere that she'd rather be
She's looking for lovers and children playing
She's looking for signs of the spring
She listens for laughter and sounds of dancing
She listens for any old thing
Fly away, fly away, fly away

Here i am closing my eyes again
Trying so hard not to see
All the things that i see
Almost willing to lie again
I swear that it just isn't so
It just isn't me
We are never alone
Even though we'd like to be
The i go and open my eyes again
Love in your eyes is the thing
That i'd most like to see
I'd be willing to die again
To know of a place and a time
Where it always could be
To be always with you
And you always with me
This is my autograph
Here is the songs i sing
Here is my cry and my laugh
Here is the love that i bring
To be always with you
And you always with me
Say a prayer and open your heart again
You are the love and the life
That we all need to see
Always willing to shine and then
Peace on this earth is the way
That it always can be
To be always with you
And you always with me
This is my autograph
Here is the songs i sing
Here is my cry and my laugh
Here is the love that i bring
To be always with you
And you always with me

Ry classics, the country roads collection and the rocky mountain collection albums. a live version also appears on the wildlife concert and the best of john denver live albums.
He was born in the bitterroot valley in the early morning rain
Wild geese over the water headin' north and home again
Bringin' a warm wind from the south
Bringin' the first taste of the spring
His mother took him to her breast and softly she did sing
Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
His mother died that summer and he never learned to cry
He never knew his father and he never did ask why
He never knew the answers that would make an easy way
But he learned to know the wilderness and to be a man that way
His mother's brother took him in to family and his home
Gave him a hand that he could lean on and a strength to call his own
And he learned to be a farmer and he learned to love the land
And he learned to read the seasons and he learned to make a stand
Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
On the eve of his 21st birthday he set out on his own
He was 30 years and runnin' when he found his way back home
Ridin' a storm across the mountains and an aching in his heart
Said he came to turn the pages and to make a brand new start
Now he never told a story of the time that he was gone
Some say he was a lawyer, some say he was a john
There was somethin' in the city that he said he couldn't breathe
And there was somethin' in the country that he said he couldn't leave
Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
Now some say he was crazy and they're glad that he is gone
But some of us miss him and we'll try to carry on
Giving a voice to the forest, giving a voice to the dawn
Giving a voice to the wilderness and the land that he lived on
Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
Oh montana, give this child a home
Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies

I caught a ride on the dreamland express last night
I was sailing on an ocean of blue
And right there by my side, much to my surprise, was you
I said, come on over baby, let me look in your eyes
Let me see the very heart of you
And i couldn't believe it, or conceive that my dream would come true
Cause you said, hey there sweet daddy, everything is alright
You know for miles there's not a telephone line
There's not a soul to disturb us
Just come and be mine
You said, let me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love
But now it's four in the mornin', i can't sleep
I can't get you out of my mind
I keep tossin' and turnin', i'm yearnin' for the sun to shine
I'd like to send you a ticket on the dreamland express
And take you far away with me
I've got a vision of heaven, you livin' there with me
Let me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love
Llet me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
It's early to rise, early in the sack
Thank god i'm a country boy
Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank god i'm a country boy
Well i got me a fine wife i got me a fiddle
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle
Thank god i'm a country boy
When the work's all done and the sun's settlin' low
I pull out my fiddle and i rosin up the bow
The kids are asleep so i keep it kinda low
Thank god i'm a country boy
I'd play |
9. _ Like A Sad Song
usually in the morning
I'm filled with sweet belonging
And everything is beautiful to see
Even when it's raining
The sound of heaven singing
Is simply joyful music to me
Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you
So many different places
A million smiling faces
Life is so incredible to me
Especially to be near you
And how it is to touch you
Oh, paradise was made for you and me
Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you
I know that life goes on just perfectly
Everything is just the way that it should be
Still there are times when my heart feel like breaking
And anywhere is where i'd rather be
Oh, and in the nighttime
I know that it's the right time
To hold you close and tell you i love you so
To have someone to share with
And someone i can care with
And that is why i wanted you to know
Sometimes i feel like a sad song
Like i'm all alone without you
Without you.

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest

Come fill me again
Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
You fill up my senses

Like the mountains in springtime

Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses

12. _ What's On Your Mind
This song appears on four albums, and was first released on the john denver album. it has also been released on the country classics, reflections and the country roads collection albums.
You know sometimes i can't get to sleep at night
I can't quiet my heart or my mind
I toss and turn, i ache and burn
I get caught in the passing of time
It's like too many miles, too many heartaches
Too much that needs to be done
Yes and too many sidewalks, too many people
Too many hours done
What's on your mind
What's on my mind
Is really quite the same
I've been working so hard
And i'm ready to play
I know just the right game
What's on your mind
Is what's on my mind
That's the way it's gonna be
I'm gonna find me a place i can hide
I want you right next to me
On i've never seen a more beautiful day
It's my favorite time of year
The colors are changing, she's rearranging
And i'm so glad to be here
I've been up and around, i've been lost, i've been found
I've seen love face to face in my dreams
And the things that i know and the things that i show
Are not always just what they seem
What's on your mind
Is what's on my mind
It's just that way
It's like catching a ride
On a beautiful river
Let it carry us all away
What's on your mind
And what's on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, i want to make love with you
What's on your mind
And what's on my mind
Is really quite the same
I've been working so hard
And i'm ready to play
Baby, i know just the right game
What's on your mind
And what's on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, i want to make love with you

When you ask how i've been here without you
I like to say i've been fine and i do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if i told the truth, that's not quite true
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Now the face that i see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more i can see there's a danger
In becoming what i never thought i'd be
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won't leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

I've been out on this highway now
Five days in a row
My words all run together
My feet are movin' slow
I've got to stop and eat
While it's still light
There's a local angel sitting on my right
Do you believe in love at first sight
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I'm ordinarily very shy
And i'd be polite if i had time
Baby, you look good to me tonight
Tomorrow, i'll be good and gone
Please don't make me wait that long
Baby, you look good to me tonight

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many remembered by few
Lookin' for something that i can believe in
Lookin' for something that i'd like to do with my life
There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me
To somethin' that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more
Than enough to just be there today
And i don't know what the future is holdin' in store
I don't know where i'm goin', i'm not sure where i've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the livin', i don't need to see the end
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air
Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many remembered by few
Lookin' for something that i can believe in
Lookin' for something that i'd like to do with my life
There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me
To somethin' that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more
Than enough to just be there today
And i don't know what the future is holdin' in store
I don't know where i'm goin', i'm not sure where i've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the livin', i don't need to see the end
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water

There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in
The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders
There's a truck out on the four lane a mile or more away
The whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder
He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky
And ten days on the road are barely gone
There's a fire softly burnin', supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm
Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes 'n' hey, it's good to be back home again
There's all the news to tell him, how'd you spend your time
What's the latest thing the neighbors say
And your mother called last friday, |
