Here am I one sad and lonely guy,
one shadow of the man I used to be.

Now it's past, the love I thought would last;
you thought I had you chained,
and now you're free.

I know it's wrong but I'm still holding on,
still praying you will soon come back to me.

But then you go, you let your feelings show;
you said I gave you pain, and now I see.

But baby, as you turn away

Just my dog and I
at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn't wanna bring her
and I know it'll make her worse.

Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there.
And they call me Shenandora in the air.

Well, I'm ten feet tall,
but I'm only three feet wide.
And I live inside an ocean that flows
on the other side.

If I came back down tomorrow,
would it all be far too soon

If my life gets like a jig saw
with the pieces out of place,
come on over,
put a smile back on my face.

And if all my bad days came at once
you would know just what to do.
Come on over;
baby, you will see me through.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Bring your love around;
you can dry away my tears.

And if you think I need you,
come on over.
Lay your body down;

So warm is my morning sun, red is my rainbow
Soft is the cool summer breeze when I saw your face
I saw the light in your eyes so dark and demanding
Like a light in the storm

Whenever I cry my friend
You're always away and so I pretend
If I could live the dreams that I see
Long live my love

Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again

About an hour or more, when I go upstairs, you can read between the lines
I can make it to the top, but then I gotta stop
But I'm all right, I'm really fine
It's just the wine and all this making love

In a day or so, it'll really show, gonna wear me to the ground
It's just the way it goes, she keeps me on my toes
But I'm all right, and should I mind
It's just the wine and all this making love

First I rise, then I fall
Seems like you don't want the love
Of this man at all
And it's sure been a lonely time
Right up to the time I met you
So if you take a love like mine

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to hurt me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
'Cause it's all that I've got
And my love won't desert me

So you say to yourself, boy,
You're out of your brain;

Go on with your song, bird -- you can't go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Though your wings are broken the sky is so wide open
And the wind is waiting for you like an open door

Though you go so far away, your voice will still be heard so well
You'll never really ever know how beautiful you are
When the moon is on the rise I'll try to make my songbird fly

In the streets of New York City
ev'ry man can feel the cold.
And I don't want no pity,
but I want my story told.

When the lights shine down on me,
they shine on the little boy.
Is this way to make him pay;
be'ng born in a world of joy.

But like me
he don't know where he'll go wrong;
he won't cry so many tears
till he finds out why he don't belong like me.

there's no room for us out there;

It's just your jive talkin'
you're telling me lies, yeah
Jive talkin'
you wear a disguise
Jive talkin'
so misunderstood, yeah
Jive talkin'
You really no good

Oh, my child
You'll never know
Just what you mean to me
Oh, my child
You got so much
You're gonna take away my energy

With all your jive talkin'
You're telling me lies, yeah
Good lovin'
Still gets in my eyes
Nobody believes what you say

Here we are in the room full of strangers,
Standing in the dark where your eyes couldn't see me

Well, I have to follow you
Though you didn't want me to.
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away

Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs,
Singin' them straight to the heart songs.
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
