Heart These Dreams
Spare a little candle Save some light for me figures up ahead Moving in the trees White skin in linen Perfume on my wrist And the full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist Darkness on the edge Shadows where I stand I search for the time On a watch with no hands I want to see you clearly Come closer than this But all I remember Are the dreams in the mist These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
Is it cloak 'n dagger Could it be spring or fall I walk without a cut Through a stained glass wall Weaker in my eyesight The candle in my grip And words that have no form Are falling from my lips
These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
There's something out there I can't resist I need to hide away from the pain There's something out there I can't resist The sweetest song is silence That I've ever heard Funny how your feet In dreams never touch the earth In a wood full of princes Freedom is a kiss But the prince hides his face From dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Heart Who Will You Run To
You're not sure what you want to do with your life but you sure don't want me in it Yeah you're sure the life you're living with me can't go on one single minute And there's a new one waiting outside this door and now's the time to begin it
You found a new world and you want to taste it But that world can turn cold and you better face it
Who will you run to when it all falls down Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground Who's gonna take away the tears you cry Who's gonna love you baby as good as I
You won't know what it's like to live on your own You've always had me there beside you You think it's easy finding someone out there who's gonna care as much as I do What's gonna happen baby when you find out that there's no one there to cry to
You can tell the whole world how you're gonna make it You can follow you heart but what ya do when someone breaks it
Who will you run to when it all falls down Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground Who's gonna take away the tears you cry Who's goona love you baby as good as I
You found a new world and you want to taste it But that world can turn cold and you better face it
Who will you run to when it all falls down Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground Who's gonna take away the tears you cry Who's gonna love you baby as good as I
Who will you run to when it all falls down Who's gonna pick your world up off the ground Who's gonna take away the tears you cry Who's gonna love you baby as good as I

Heart Dreamboat Annie
Heading out this morning into the sun Riding on the diamond waves, little darlin' one
Warm wind caress her Her lover it seems Oh, Annie Dreamboat Annie my little ship of dreams
Going down the city sidewalk alone in the crowd No one knows the lonely one whose head's in the clouds
Sad faces painted over with those magazine smiles Heading out to somewhere won't be back for a while

Heart Dog and Butterfly
There I was with the old man Stranded again so off I'd ran A young world crashing around me No possibilities of getting what I need He looked at me and smiled Said "No, no, no, no, no child.
See the dog and butterfly. Up in the Air he like to fly." Dog and butterfly Below she had to try. She roll back down To the warm soft ground laughing She don't know why, she don't know why Dog and butterfly
Well I stumbled upon your secret place Safe in the trees you had tears on your face Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers Stealing your fires. The message hit my mind Only words that I could find
See the dog and butterfly Up in the air he like to fly Dog and butterfly below she had to try She roll back down to the warm soft ground Laughing to the sky, up to the sky Dog and butterfly
We're getting older the world's getting colder For the life of me I don't know the reason why Maybe it's livin' making us give in Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide We're balanced together ocean upon the sky
Another night in this strange town Moonlight holding me light as down Voice of confusion inside of me Just begging to go back where I'm free Feels like I'm through Then the old man's words are true
See the dog and butterfly Up in the air he like to fly Dog and butterfly, below she had to try She roll back down to the warm soft Ground with a little tear in her eye She had to try, she had to try Dog and butterfly yeah Up in the air, he liked to fly The dog and butterfly, below she had to try She rolled back down to the warm soft ground Laughing she don’t know why But she had to try she had to try Dog and butterfly

Iron Maiden Heaven Can Wait
Can't understand what is happening to me, This isn't real, this is only a dream, But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before, I'm looking down on my body below, I lie asleep in the midst of a dream, Is it now could it be that the angel of death has come for me? I can't believe that really my time has come, I don't feel ready, there's so much left undone, And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away.
Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day.
I have a lust for the Earth below And Hell itself is my only foe, 'Cause I've no fear of dying, I'll go when I'm good and ready, I snatch a glimpse of the light's eternal rays, I see a tunnel, I stand amazed, At all of the people standing there in front of me, Into the paths of rightness I'll be led, Is this the place where the living join the dead? I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare.
Take my hand, I'll lead you to the promised land, Take my hand, I'll give you immortality, Eternal youth, I'll take you to the other side, To see the truth, the path for you is decided.
Oh Oh [lots]
My body tingles, I feel so strange, I feel so tired, I feel so drained, And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again, Is this in limbo or in Heaven or Hell? Maybe I'm going down there as well, I can't accept my soul will drift forever I feel myself floating back down to Earth, So could this be the hour of my rebirth? Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming?

Iron Maiden Wasted Years
From the coast of gold, across the seven seas, I'm travelling on, far and wide, But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself, And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else.
I close my eyes, and think of home, Another city goes by, in the night, Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away, And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day.
So understand Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years, Face up...make your stand, And realise you're living in the golden years.
Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind, Can't ease this pain, so easily, When you can't find the words to say, it's hard to make it through another day, And it makes me wanna cry, and throw my hands up to the sky.
So understand Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years, Face up...make your stand, And realise you're living in the golden years.

Iron Maiden 2 Minutes to Midnight
Kill for gain or shoot to maim But we don't need a reason To Golden Goose is on the loose And never out of season Some blackened pride still burns inside This shell of bloody treason Here's my gun for a barrel of fun For the love of living death
The killer's breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight, The hands that treaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb.
The blind men shout "Let the creatures out We'll show the unbeliverers." The napalm screams of human flames Of a prime time Belsen feast ... yeah! As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.
The killer's breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight, The hands that treaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb.
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun.
The killer's breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight, The hands that treaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb.
Midnight Midnight Midnight It's all night
Midnight Midnight Midnight It's all night

Journey Don't Stop Believing
Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people, living just to find emotion Hiding, somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill, everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice, just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on
(chorus)
Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlight people

Journey Open Arms
Lying beside you, here in the dark Feeling your heart beat with mine Softly you whisper, you're so sincere How could our love be so blind We sailed on together We drifted apart And here you are by my side
So now I come to you, with open arms Nothing to hide, believe what I say So here I am with open arms Hoping you'll see what your love means to me Open arms
Living without you, living alone This empty house seems so cold Wanting to hold you, wanting you near How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back Turned night into day I need you to stay.
(chorus)

Beth, I hear you callin' But I can't come home right now Me and the boys are playin' And we just can't find the sound Just a few more hours And I'll be right home to you I think I hear them callin' Oh, Beth what can I do Beth what can I do
You say you feel so empty That our house just ain't a home And I'm always somewhere else And you're always there alone
Just a few more hours And I'll be right home to you I think I hear them callin' Oh, Beth what can I do Beth what can I do
Beth, I know you're lonely And I hope you'll be alright 'Cause me and the boys will be playin' All night

For some reason, this evokes images of some of the play-by-posts I've been in.
What It Is by Mark Knopfler
The drinking dens are spilling out There's staggering in the square There's lads and lasses falling about And a crackling in the air Down around the dungeon doors The shelters and the queues Everybody's looking for Somebody's arms to fall into And it's what it is It's what it is now
There's frost on the graves and the monuments But the taverns are warm in town People curse the government And shovel hot food down The lights are out in city hall The castle and the keep The moon shines down upon it all The legless and asleep
And it's cold on the tollgate With the wagons creeping through Cold on the tollgate God knows what I could do with you And it's what it is It's what it is now
The garrison sleeps in the citadel With the ghosts and the ancient stones High up on the parapet A Scottish piper stands alone And high on the wind The highland drums begin to roll And something from the past just comes And stares into my soul
And it's cold on the tollgate With the Caledonian blues Cold on the tollgate God knows what I could do with you And it's what it is It's what it is now What it is It's what it is now
There's a chink of light, there's a burning wick There's a lantern in the tower Wee Willie Winkie with a candlestick Still writing songs in the wee wee hours On Charlotte Street I take A walking stick from my hotel The ghost of Dirty Dick Is still in search of Little Nell And it's what it is It's what it is now Oh it's what it is What it is now

Another one by Mr. Knopfler that evokes some pretty powerful images.
The Last Laugh
Don't you love the sound Of the last laugh my friend Don't you love the sound Of the last laugh at the end Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers Down in the scuppers with the drunken sailors Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers But the last laugh, baby is yours And don't you love the sound Of the last laugh going down
Games you thought you'd learned You neither lost nor won Dreams have crashed and burned But you're still going on Out on the highway with the road gang working Up on the mountain with the cold wind blowing Out on the highway with the road gang working But the last laugh, baby is yours And don't you love the sound Of the last laugh going down
They had you crying but you came up smiling They had you crawling and you came up flying They had you crying and you came up smiling And the last laugh, baby is yours And don't you love the sound Of the last laugh going down Yeh don't you love the sound Of the last laugh going down

For those gamers out there who play hot-shot pilots.
STRANGE BIRD by Jimmy Buffett/Jay Oliver Half fast and seldom seen He don't blip the radar screen On the deck below the dune Under the commander's moon Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest God only knows where the strange bird goes when he's flyin' Everybody's trying to find him But they don't know where to start The ornithologist lady says that he has wings on his heart
CHORUS
Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird
His only home is in the skies Slicing through the cloudy pie Above the whole Caribbean Moves the swift amphibian
CHORUS
Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird Watch out girl, he's a strange bird
But he's in love with the lady of the waters And she lives somewhere up around Cheauxvan He's gonna circle high above her runway of love Until she gives him her permission to land
CHORUS
Strange bird from a different nest flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down If you can't see him you can't claim him If you can't see him, you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird
Strange bird flying low Cross the Gulf of Mexico Strange bird, not like all the rest Wath out girl, he's a strange bird Shoot you down, he's a strange bird It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a strange bird

GYPSIES IN THE PALACE by Jimmy Buffett, Glenn Frey & Will Jennings
So long Boss, knock 'em dead, don't worry 'bout a thing Wish that we could come along, we'd love to hear you sing The limo's here, your bags are packed, the list is by the phone, Me and Snake will watch your place and treat it like our own
Look at all this liquor Look at all this food It's only gonna go to waste We're not really being rude But the good stuff's in his closet, I swear he wouldn't mind Hell, we''ll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time
We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone The order of the sleepless knights will now assume the throne We ain't got no money, we ain't fot no fight But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
There's damsels in distress out there and we got all this beer We'll free them from their condos and bring them over here We'll show them his gold records We'll play his music loud We'll party just like Bubba does We'll do the old man proud
We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right We're gypsies in the palace, and we're going wild tonight.
He's the greatest guy to work for, man, he's really cool Hey Snake, this party's getting dull, throw someone in the pool Hey, let's all take our clothes off and form a conga line Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake, we need more wine
We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right We're gypsies in the palace and we're raising hell tonight, hey
Oh, hi there Boss, what's goning on? You say you're coming when? I'll send Snake to pick you tomorrow night at ten, okay
Everybody out of here, the show is closing down We've got to find someone to clean this up, He's coming back to town
Hi there boss, we waxed your car, we raked and mowed your lawn We couldn't find enough to do in the short time you were gone
Man it sure is peaceful here, you really got it all If you ever hit the road again, give me and Snake a call
We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone The order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
Hello? Hey, Jimmy, it's Glenn Glenn, How ya doing? Fine man, I'm going on the road, do you know anyone who could house sit for me? I got these two great guys that look after my place man, they're the best.
