"so lift me up
finish what you started
lift me up
from the brokenhearted
take me on a ride
rivers deep and wide"

Jeff Lynne - "Lift Me Up" - 'Armchair Theatre' - 1990

Jimi Hendrix - "Voodoo Chile" - 'Electric Ladyland' - September, 1968

"Well the night you were born,
I swear the moon turned a fire red"

"Rainy day, dream all day..
Lay back and groove on a rainy day."

Jimi Hendrix - "Rainy Day, Dream Away" 'Electric Ladyland' - 1968

Lady Of The Dancing Water

"Grass in your hair stretched like a lion in the sun
Restlessly turned moistened your mouth with your tongue.
Pouring my wine your eyes caged mine glowing
Touching your face my fingers strayed knowing.
I called you lady of the dancing water.

Blown autumn leaves shed to the fire where you laid me
Burn slow to ash just as my days now seem to be.
I feel you still always your eyes glowing
Remembered hours salt, earth and flowers flowing.
Farewell my lady of the dancing water."

--- Peter Sinfield

/me Radio has had a long, hard night, the fingers are cramped, the back is aching, here's another tune:

okay, who took the song list?

Tears for Fears - "Fish out of Water" - 'Elemental' - 1993

"We used to sit and talk about primal scream
To exorcise our past was our adolescent dream
But now it's sink or swim since your memory fails
Now in Neptune's kitchen you will be food for killer whales
And on the crucifix his mother made
Hangs one more martyr to the hit parade."

Earth, stream and tree encircled by sea
Waves sweep the sand from my island.
My sunsets fade.
Field and glade wait only for rain
Grain after grain love erodes my
High weathered walls which fend off the tide
Cradle the wind
to my island.......

......Touch my island,
Touch me.

by King Crimson

"Gaunt granite climbs where gulls wheel and glide
Mournfully cry o'er my island.
My dawn bride's veil, damp and pale,
Dissolves in the sun.
Love's web is spun--cats prowl, mice run
Wreathe snatch-hand briars where owls know my eyes.
Violet skies
Touch my island, touch me."

"Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rockabye sweet baby James."

---James Taylor

"Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susan the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to.

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I alway thought that I'd see you again.

Won't you look down upon me Jesus you've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to help me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way.

Now I'm walking my mind to an easy time
my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around
There's hours of time on the telephone line
to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground."

James Taylor - "Fire and Rain" - 'Sweet Baby James' - December 1969

Todd Rundgren - "I Saw the Light" - 'Something / Anything?' - 1972

"It was late last night
I was feeling something wasn't right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you
So we walked along, though I knew that there was something wrong
And a feeling hit me oh so strong about you
Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
Cause I saw the light in your eyes"

Todd Rundgren - "Cold Morning Light" - 'Something / Anything?' - 1972

"We are close, we are friends
And our love never ends
But in the cold morning light I see
That you won't be back for me"

"Iris" by "GOO GOO DOLLS"

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Todd Rundgren - "Sweeter Memories" - 'Something / Anything?' - 1972

"There's a cloud in the sky and it's raining on you
Still you try to keep dry but your troubles leak through
And you've lost all you could, feeling sad
Choose your reveries
Keep the good leave the bad
Take a few of these, the sweeter memories
Don't forget them please, the sweeter memories
To set you mind at ease, the truest remedies
Are the sweeter memories
There's a life full of pain and a life full of glee
So you see that the rain doesn't mean much to me
For I know that it pays making light of livings tragedies
Make your days be as bright
Take a few of these, the sweeter memories"

Gypsy (Fleetwood Mac)

So i'm back to the velvet underground
back to the floor that i love
to a room with some lace and peper flowers
back to the gypsy...that i was...to the gypsy...that i was...

and it all comes down to you
well you know that it does, well...
lightning strikes...maybe once...maybe twice...
oh....and it lights up the night....
and you see your gypsy.......
you see your gypsy....

to the gypsy......
that remains.....
she faces freedom......
with a little fear.....
well i have no fear....
i have only love.....
and if i was a child....
and the child was enough.....
enough for me to love....
enough to love......

she is dancing away from you now
she was just a wish
she was just....a wish
and her memory is all that is left for you now
you see your gypsy.....
you see your gypsy.....

lightning strikes...maybe once...maybe twice....
(and it all comes down to you)
oooooo......oh......well it all comes down to you....
(lightning strikes...maybe once....maybe twice....
oh.............
i still see your bright eyes......(bright eyes)...
and i've always loved you....
and it all comes down to you
it all comes down to you.....

Todd Rundgren - "Saving Grace" - 'Something / Anything?' - 1972

"I think I'm gonna love it
I think I'm gonna love it
Because I know someday someone else will see it my way
And then I'll know I was not wrong
I know they won't believe it
I know they won't believe it
They think that I'm no good but I will make myself understood
Cause I believe it all along

I think I'm gonna love it
I know they won't believe it
When they finally see the saving grace in me

I know the time is gonna come
When I will mean something to someone
Until that day I'm hanging on"
