Marie, good to see you again. These are from the lyrics card accompanying the Japanese edition (LP).
~Masato

    PEOPLE ON THE HIGHWAY

There's people on the highway
People in the towns
You just can't get away
I'm a going to the mountains
Going by the sea
You won't see me again

    Chorus:
    Gonna move on buddy,
    Leave my troubles and worry behind
    Find a new home to rest
    My uneasy mind

For it's better to be going
Better to be moving
Than clinging to your past
Love is made from living
And dreams are made of sleeping
Better catch it while it lasts

    Chorus:

My sweet lady she won't call
Or knock uopn my door
She won't see me at all
And every word I've said
Everything I've done
Will not turn her pretty head

    Chorus:

If I stay I'll lose out
For the dealer deals too fast
And the game's turned about
So I think I'll try a new game
One I understand
Then my life won't be in vain

    Chorus:
    Gonna move on,
    Gonna leave my troubles and worry behind
    Find a new home to rest
    My uneasy mind

When you're feeling kinda blue
Kinda mixed up inside
And the good times are few
When every day brings the rain
In a never ending flood
And you're on your own again

    Chorus:
    Time to move on buddy,
    Leave your trouble and worry behind
    Find a new home to rest
    Your uneasy mind

When it's hard to decide
What should be your next move
And what would be the outcome
And when sunny days roll by
And pass you unnoticed
And time ceases to run

    Chorus:
    Better move on buddy,
    Leave your trouble and worry behind
    Find a new home to rest
    Your uneasy mind

JUMP BABY JUMP

Jump baby jump
Spread your wings out and float away
Why no-one has managed
To fly before
To swoop like an eagle
To glide and to soar o'er the waves
But beware now of falling babe

Come follow the ship babe
Come follow the dreamer's wake
Circle round the high mast
Fly over the bow then rise to the sun babe
No-one will catch you not now
But beware now of falling babe

Try holding your breath gal
Try fishing the waters deep
Catch the silvery shark and the slippery eel
All there to choose from
All there to catch and to steal
But beware now of drowning babe

Now you're seven hundred feet up
Looking down on the rolling sea
Down below seagulls float on the warm sunny air
Waves break and scatter all over
But don't go nowhere
Beware now of falling babe

Solomon's Seal, no one ever seems to rate this, but I think it's a fine Pentangle album

It's good to hear from you too, Masato!

Once again, you are of great help!

It seems that the transcriptions on your Japanese edition of this
album are much better done than the ones from the "Sweet Child" album!... (I'm still struggling to find the exact words of two songs
of that one! :-D

Currently, I'm also working on the "Light Flight" lyrics (Pentangle-
Basket of Light). I've already searched on the net for some hints (including past threads on the mudcat:-)... But I still have some
trouble with some of the lines -particularly on the 2nd verse and end of 3rd verse-... and *of course* I would like your input! :-)

Your help is REALLY appreciated!!!

Marie
