HAPPY I AM- LYRICS

 

The Road

Sometimes I find myself
traveling a highway
Wondering which way to I ought to go
Roadmap is weary
road signs are hazy
But my brothers are beside me
on the road

The radio is on
the sun is setting slowly
High wires sing and galaxies explode
And in the growing darkness
We share our stories, share our load
We're a band we're a man
we're on the road

I've traveled on the road and don't know where it goes
I've traveled narrow streets and freeways to the coast
And still we travel on wherever the road goes
We go together we are
still on the road

Thousands of us, millions of us
travel on the road
There are many lanes and exits
on the way
Some of us go and some of us stay
stay traveling on the road
on the road

Thousands of us, millions of us still on the road

Happy I Am

Don't know why it took so long
The ties that tied me to the ground have gone
And nothing seems to stop me now,
I've got wings. I can fly
I can look you in the eye
It was me that made the ties
It was me that set them free

It ís only that it seemed impossible
Unreasonable, unfeasible
That I became the victim
and you became the liar
And I became the tin soldier
that jumped into the fire

Happy I Am

Big things don't come easily
We stumble when we first begin to walk
We set our course, we find our way
Not easily but hard
And suddenly we're free
To some place in this life we're meant to be

Happy I Am

Big things don't come easily
We stumble when we first begin to walk
We set our course, we find our way
Not easily but hard
And suddenly we're free
To places in this life we're meant to be

Happy I Am

God Of Small Things

And in my dream we were somewhere else
You and I both were away on our own
Then you were gone, you were nowhere around
I was alone in the old part of town
There is a place, a place I know well
A place in my mind (as far as I can tell)
I'm on a road, but it's not the right road
I head for the sea through the valley deep

So Primavera takes a shower
It's not about chocolates and flowers
It's an everyday fling
with the God of small things
It's a kitchen sink romance and it's beautiful
I know it's not perfect, but it's beautiful

So somewhere out past the continental shelf
I find me, waking up to myself
Like Primavera born, I open my eyes
There you are as you've always been, by my side

Chico

Where are you now Chico?
Can you see if the world is changing
Do the winds blow hot and cold
Are the forest fires raging
This is your cry

Where are you now Chico?
Are you looking through the eyes
Of your children
Are they shining bright and true
In memory of you
And we need a revolution

This is your cry
Your heart, your soul, your life
This is the garden
For which we have to fight

This is your cry
Your heart, your soul, your life
This is the garden
For which we have to fight

You lie on the forest floor
in leaves of gold
But you rise with the morning mist
You fall with the evening rose
And the day will come
When you reach for the sun

Let's Come Together

We've come a long way
On the road to nowhere
We've lost our sacred ground
And we've got to go there

Flowers in our garden died
Strange fruit is on the vine
We live in castles made of sand
What we make we take with the other hand

It's not so hard to understand
We hold the future in our hands

Life's a short rope
A roller coaster ride
Once round on a crazy horse
A fast flowing river to the other side

It's not so hard to understand
We hold the future in our hands

Come on people, let's come together
We will make one heart
We will mend our broken promises
Stop the things
That tear our world apart

Could all this be a dream
From which we will awake
Could all this be a lesson
To learn from our mistakes

Carousel

We went to a carnival
And we took a ride on a carousel
You went up and I went down
And the world went spinning round

Those endless summer days
They seem so far away
It seems so long ago
Since you came out to play

We went to a carnival
And we took a ride on a carousel
You went up and I went down
And the world went spinning round

Now the playground's empty
The crowds have gone away
The gates are locked up tight
And rain is here to stay

We went to a carnival
And we took a ride on a carousel
You went up and I went down
And the world went spinning round

Now just the other day
I thought I heard the music play
And now my life has changed
The carnivals here to stay

Find My Way Home

When I first saw you
And held you in my arms
There was a kind of light around you
You were golden
You were divine
You were flesh and blood
You were mine

I fought for years
To find my way home
And when I made it back
I looked around and you had gone
All I can say now is go you own way
All I can say now Is go you own way

When I first saw you
The world was upside down
You held my hand
And walked beside me
There was sunshine
In your eyes

Come back again
Someday won't ya

Long Grass

When we were young, we played here
We lay about in the long grass
The wind blew in from the mountain
The leaves spun silver above us

And now we live in a big place
we run like fast cars in a lap race
The wind blows clouds across the sky
And I can see your ship sail by

In the middle of the city
I stand, I stand alone
In the rythms of the city
I hear your song

I heard it on the wind today
They said you were down in the long grass
The wind blows in from the mountains
And the leaves still spin silver above us

In the middle of the city
I stand, I stand alone
In the rythms of the city
I hear your song

In the middle of my life
I find myself without you
And in the rythms of the night
I think I hear your song of life

Babylon

My last job went wrong 'cos crime don't pay
But then I got right down on my knees and prayed
'Cos I had a date with the law as time went on
And they took me down in a train
To Babylon

There in that place folks don't know what's going on
Sometimes they fade and some forget where they came from
And in the afternoon I feel the breeze
How would I ever have known
This would happen to me

Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Good bye

Now my suitcase is packed and I'm moving on
My life is waiting outside and I'm going home
'Cos I had a date with the law and time's gone on
And I'm gonna take me a train
From Babylon

Goodbye Babylon
Now I'm moving on
Goodbye Babylon
I won't be back again
Goodbye Babylon

Who I Am

I have traveled many roads
Got dirty feet and dusty clothes
I won't pass this way again
I'll take the roads that lead me home

I have circled round the sun
I've fallen down and come undone
But if I stand here very still
I can hear the sounds you

I have traveled far and wide
And I have traveled deep inside
And if I lay me on this ground
The earth will tell me who I am

And if I find out who I am
Then surely I can call your name
If you should hear me on the wind
Then you can call me home again
