Jefferson Airplane lyrics

(by S. Porcaro, D. Paich)

Take the night
When you've got a feeling
When you're trying to forget
The day you've been through
Is it right to keep your affection
While a desperate attempt is make to get through

Could it be a miracle
Could it be what the dream is really MADE of
Who can say when and where it will
But our hearts will decide When you find true love

There is love

(by J. Kaukonen)

I opened the door and I
found I was looking at danger
It's been too many years but we're
hiding our faces like strangers
She says that she's got to go
but there ain't no way
I'm letting her walk while
there's something to say

It's been too many years
to watch our hearts die this way

She's feeling a time for a
seasonal change and she's yearning

WE CAN BE ONE WORLD WE WILL BE ONE WORLD
In the Jungles of the Mountain Young Nora loves the mountain
And the Mountain feeds the people and the Wheel keeps on turnin' REVOLUTION!

And the Wheel keeps on rollin' firmly toward Tomorrow
And the Mountain speaks clearly to the People in the Streets

(by M. Balin)

The Summer Of Love was something special
We were so young and so free
The Summer Of Love that I was a part of
We had so many dreams
And even a few of them came true it seems

I still believe in all the music, and it's still playing
I still believe in all the words, ya I'm still saying
I still believe in all the people, they were really great

(by B. Brecht, M. Balin, M. Cummings)
Translated by H. R. Hays

People of the world together
Join to serve the common cause
So it feeds us all forever
See to it that it's now yours

Forward without forgetting
Where our strength can be seen now to be
When starving or when eating
It's forward not forgetting our solidarity

Black or white or brown or yellow
Leave your old disputes behind

(by P. Kantner)

I love Planes Jet Aircraft
I love Planes Jet Aircraft

He was just a little boy and he sat there in his school
And the little girl in the very next chair she thought he was so cool
And she watched him draw and draw Planes and wings and flying things
Even during tests he'd keep on drawing
And his mother didn't want him and his father was always working so he

(by G. Slick)

He lives all alone but the bamboo forest knows him
Now his land is taken by man he's got nowhere left to go
When he used to roam through all of China's mountains
It was his home--the only place he knows

He was born on the mountain's Eastern side
Where the sun brings the morning to the sky
In the snow the human hunters hide
A shot is heard but no one hears him cry

(by G. Slick)

Desire--The feeling so clear
It sings in everything you hear
Desire--The feeling you never lose
It's always something new
And it's waiting for you to follow through

We all have a song, life is the dance
And right or wrong we will all take the chance

Now is the time, the time is right
We've got no reason to wait let's do it tonight
This is the night, tonight is the time

(by P. Kantner, M. Balin)

And then my whole world turned kind of crazy
My whole world came apart
Found my way to Madeleine Street
Found my lover and I found my heart
Found my lover and I found my heart
Down in Nicaragua in a little music bar
Where all the people were dancin' All the people're so right
All the people makin' love long into the wartime night

Goin' down to Madeleine Street

(by J. Kaukonen)

Well I heard the news just the other day
Now I feel there's something I must say
Well the darkness comes too often
This time next year I'll build my coffin
Made out of lead so X-rays cannot see
We gotta be free
Political men they burn their lives out talkin'
We people of the earth just keep on walkin'
Well we don't know what to say
Only live our lives as slaves

(by G. Slick)

Oh I know they say someday time will show me
How to be so cool someday but what about right now
Please someone tell me what do I do while I'm waiting
Waiting to be so cool--someday

I know I'm not alone you know just how I feel
We both know the rules but who really knows
How to play this game?
No one will always win good losers hide the pain
They say everything's fine

(by G. Slick)

In your arms, in your eyes
I can see the Paris lights
And the warm Italian nights
Seems like summertime just flies

Through so many skies we've flown
So many lands we've come to know
And we watch our love just grow
Till the winter brings us home

No time gives us reasons for why it just goes by
And no man can stop the seasons
But so many men will try
