To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
To work in the service of life and the living
In search of the answers to questions unknown
To be part of the movement and part of the growing
Part of beginning to understand

Aye, calypso, the places you've been to
The things that you've shown us
The stories you tell
Aye, calypso, i sing to your spirit
The men who have served you
So long and so well

Like the dolphin who guides you
You bring us beside you
To light up the darkness and show us the way
For though we are strangers in your silent world
To live on the land we must learn from the sea
To be true as the tide
And free as the wind-swell
Joyful and loving in letting it be

Aye, calypso, the places you've been to
The things that you've shown us
The stories you tell
Aye, calypso, i sing to your spirit
The men who have served you
So long and so well

Aye, calypso, the places you've been to
The things that you've shown us
The stories you tell
Aye, calypso, i sing to your spirit
The men who have served you
So long and so well

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

On the road of experience
I'm trying to find my own way
Sometimes i wish that i could fly away
When i think that i'm moving
Suddenly things stand still
I'm afraid

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.

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,

welcome to my morning (farewell andromeda)
(john denver)

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
I'm the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
See what they might bring
I think i made it perfectly
I wouldn't change a thing

Welcome to my happiness
You know it makes me smile
And it pleases me to have you here
For just a little while
While we open up the spaces
Try to break some chains
And if the truth is told
They will never come again

Welcome to my evening
The closing of the day
I could try a million times
Never find a better way
To tell you that i love you
And all the songs i play
Are to thank you for allowing me
Inside this lovely day

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
I'm the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
And see what they might bring
I think i made it perfectly
I wouldn't change a thing
