And I will brace myself against the dark
Endeavour to go on
No matter how long it takes
And even though I might be wrong

And I will ask a little favour
Of whatever God I find
And I will come back for you later
When I find some peace of mind

People -- what have you done --
locked Him in His golden cage.
Made Him bend to your religion --
Him resurrected from the grave.
He is the god of nothing --
if that's all that you can see.

Where the dance of ages is playing still
through far marches of acres wild.

The people cried her Jennie o the Braes
An she wis weel-kent tae us aa.
Her ganglin body, hingin oot her claithes,
Made her stan oot when
she strode doon the braes.
Twa days a week, she'd come visitin the toon;
She'd tak the braes rain, hail or shine;
Her silver hair wuid be fleein in the wind
An' folk thocht her a craiture mad or wild

When ice an snaw gripped aa the kintry,
Ye'd see the smoak rise frae her chimney;
The world ablaw cuid then rest easy
for Jennie o' the Braes

WarChild, dance the days and nights away ---
sweet child, how do you do today?
When your back's to the wall,
and your luck is your all,
then side with whoever you may.
Seek that which within lies waiting to begin
the fight of your life that is everyday.
Dance with the WarChild --- Hoorah.

Choose me from a bundle
of ballons at any fair
colorful and carefree
designed to make you stare
But I'm lost and I'm losing
The string that holds me down
And I'm up hard and rising
In the lights of every town
The long road is a rainbow
and the Pot of Gold lies there
So turn your head and I'm off again
You'll find me anywhere
'cause I'm a Rover

And life is making you lonely

All the noise and the hurry
Seems to help I know
Downtown

As you slip on the greasy platform,
and you land upon your back,
You make a wish and you wipe your nose upon the railway track.
While the high-strung locomotive,
with furnace burning bright,
Lumbers on --- you wave goodbye ---
and the sparks fade into night.

Signs stuck on the station wall adhere to the opinion
That I should not be standing here at all
I should be on a sailing ship or flying off to London
At prices quite extravagantly small

But I await a train that's late to do me bit of travelling
To see the world along the North Shore Line
The tangled string that is me life's been far too long unravelling
With new loose ends appearing all the time

What a reason for waiting
and dreaming of dreams.
So here's hoping you've faith in impossible schemes,
that are born in the sigh of the wind blowing by
while the dimming light brings the end to a night of loving.

Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Glad I found you, glad you're mine.
Oh my love, you're like a precious stone, part of earth where heaven has rained on.
Makes no difference where you are. Day or nighttime, you're like a shinin' star.
And how could I shine without you, when it's about you that I am?

Come on you miner for truth and delusion

If he hasn't changed his mind

Kindly state the time of the year and join your voices in a hellish chorus.
Mark the precise nature of your fear.

the thoughts of the wise and
