Camera, Camera
CAMERA CAMERA Open up your magazine and see what's inside I'm sure that you will find me--this is where I hide Treat me as your fantasy, escape from the day Into my model existance I will take you far away Chorus: Camera camera, take a picture of me Look through your lens Tell me what do you find within your view? Speak to me while I'm looking at you! Am I pleasant and kind All in all just one perfect smile Or the face of regret For someone that you've never met? A schizophrenic, photogenic model of time A picture of health a real gold mine Lovely to look at and lovely to hold A spirit that's broken and a heart that's ice cold Trying hard to be so pretty since I don't know when? All my time at work and play spent in this eight by ten An epitaph of dedication, that's what they said You know she nearly made it, but she had a child instead Chorus: (Instrumental to end) FAERIES (LIVING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE GARDEN) What lies beneath the Rowan tree Magic dust that I may breathe Starlit night, the mist entwines my fear A faerie ring untouched by time Secrets of the inner mind Come to life before my very eyes Once like a child I knew fear "Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark!" Chorus: Faeries living at the bottom of the garden Faeries living at the bottom of the garden Someone's calling, I am falling--falling, falling ... Just before the dawn I wake My heart is cold but it's too late There is someone out there calling me So I leave my bed, climb down the stairs Out the door, the still night air See beneath the tree--it is me Once like a child I knew fear "Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark! Chorus "Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark! Repeat chorus three times Someone's calling, can't stop falling ... REMEMBER I have her letters Perfume lingers on every page Tied with ribbons Kept with lavender and her lace The letters are faded Kept by her side for all her days And the ribbons Once held her hand on a younger day He wrote of the warm spring days And how tall the grass grew He wrote of the poppy fields He said, "tell the children I love them--remember" There was a poppy Kept in a frame By his photograph The years were so long They were strong and we must be too He wrote of the open air And how brave his friends were He wrote of the poppy fields He said, "tell the children of Flanders--remember" Remember BONJOUR SWANSONG Couldn't have loved you more but I know I could have loved you longer Crying for the moon Couldn't have loved you less but I know I could have loved you longer Over all too soon Come down to earth, how the time flies Come down to earth, how the love lies A broken butterfly Chorus I: Trapped in a wheel, a butterfly I can't conceal the way I feel Now that you're gone it's been so long Bonjour swansong Hiding behind a song and I know I could have loved you longer Singing just for you Couldn't have loved you more but I know I could have loved you longer Didn't make it through Come down to land after so long Come down to land, bonjour swansong A broken butterfly Chorus II: Caught on the wing, a butterfly A broken wing, but still I sing Now that you're gone it's been so long Bonjour swansong And I thought we'd touch eternity But all we have are memories I thank you for the sweetness That you gave to me Repeat Chorus I - Chorus II - Chorus I TYRANT-TULA It is nothing to live as we do Day to day we roam Heart without a home of our own Dust and passion lay in our throats Revenge in each word that spoke Childrens eyes fill our minds as we smoke Chorus: But somewhere out in the desert a figure moves at speed And in his heart he carries the message that they need We move against the tyrant Words fall from his lips The fire inside their eyes is lit At daybreak freedom calls We answer as one From hiding in the hills we enter the burning sun Danger fills the air and the dawn Holds a sweet but stale perfume Women know that soon they may lose What good are men that love but our slaves In a country they once called their own? As they kissed goodbye they have flown Chorus II To be there out in the desert as horses move at speed And in each heart is carried the message that they need We move against the tyrant Words fall from his lips The fire inside their eyes is lit At daybreak freedom called We answered as one From hiding in the hills we entered the gripping sun Instrumental Repeat second part of chorus I OKICHI-SAN Sunlight shining Kyoko-san Shades her face behind her fan Silk kimono, amber comb Geisha Kyoko-san's alone Moving through the willow leaves Past the tea house trees Preparing for the evening play Kyoko-san would please In Shimoda geisha-san Tells of lost Okichi-san Taken from the geisha place To a foreign cold embrace Bound in duty to perform Okichi-san was torn Unhappy Okichi-san lived a life forlorn In Shimoda geisha Kyoko-san is resting Lost Okichi-san geisha Kyoko-san Different as two can be Sighing In Shimoda Gefu lanterns glow this evening Through the paper screen Painted candle's light Soft against the perfect night sky In Shimoda poor Okichi-san is sleeping Dreams of blossom trees Heavy on the ground Scented petals falling so soft Through the paper screen Painted candle's light Soft against the perfume night sky JIGSAW When I knew nothing most things seemed very clear There was a way to take to get too far or near But now the road is rougher And life is getting tough I've had enough, enough of Chorus: Jigsaws, all that I ever see Unsure where I want to be See-saw, you standing next to me The edges of my days are all astray Friend can I take a few of your decisions now I can not stay this way so I'll make a change somehow And now the time is later I don't think I should wait I must escape, escape from Chorus Jigsaw The way is shattered at your feet it touches you See-saw You're upside down, it clutches you, it touches you Jigsaw Jigsaw Jigsaw Here in the center of an endless hazy maze I know I lost the way and I don't know nights from days And now there's no solution I know that I can't use all the confusion, all the Chorus RUNNING AWAY FROM YOU When you get to the top in the small town Then you find you got friends you never knew about It's five AM but I keep on walkin' I can't go home for success has locked me out You see my luck went to his head He could have kept quiet but instead Now everyone knows Chorus: I'm running away from you I'm running away from you I'm running away from you And your heart It started off just a small time scandal The people talk and they smile to win your confidence Mistaken trust that you took as friendship Has let you down when you needed to be up Well all the money in the world Can't buy the silence of this girl So now everyone knows Chorus And you know that we will always stay Lovers in a small town kind of way But the high life called you I should have known but instead Chorus Thinking back to when I first met you So shy and young as an innocent You were number one No real desires I just want to be near you You took my love, my emotion, then off you ran My reputation as your flag You held it high I bet you're glad That everyone knows Repeat chorus to end UKRAINE WAYS I can hear Brazilian love songs, more every day They seem stronger on the wind--you don't seem so far away Someday I'm going to be there, someday I'll be Standing on your highest mountain looking out across the sea No longer here so cold and tired I'm getting out today from Ukraine ways From my childhood I've seen pictures, don't say a word Decadent scenes of smiling people half the way across the world When you live each day in colours of stone and gray Feelings start to rise within you--steal the chance and get away Much stronger now, I feel so inspired I'm getting out today from Ukraine ways I can feel your rhythm deep within me I can see your people dance Here I stand in the ice and snow Warm where the cold winds blow Colours that flash through my mind when I'm dreaming Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own Tropical days are the things that I live for No more Ukraine ways Instrumental I can feel your rhythm deep within me I can see your people dance Here I stand in the ice and snow Warm where the cold winds blow Colours that flash through my mind when I'm dreaming Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own Tropical days are the things that I live for No more Ukraine ways
