WAITING FOR THE SUN - 1968

HELLO, I LOVE YOU

Hello, I love you

Won't you tell me your name?

Hello, I love you

Let me jump in your game

Hello, I love you

Won't you tell me your name?

Hello, I love you

Let me jump in your game

She's walking down the street

Blind to every eye she meets

Do you think you'll be the guy

To make the queen of the angels sigh?

Hello, I love you

Won't you tell me your name?

Hello, I love you

Let me jump in your game

Hello, I love you

Won't you tell me your name?

Hello, I love you

Let me jump in your game

She holds her head so high

Like a statue in the sky

Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long

When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet

Like a dog that begs for something sweet

Do you hope to make her see, you fool?

Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello

I want you

Hello

I need my baby

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello

LOVE STREET

She lives on Love Street

Lingers long on Love Street

She has a house and garden

I would like to see what happens

She has robes and she has monkeys

Lazy diamond studded flunkies

She has wisdom and knows what to do

She has me and she has you

She has wisdom and knows what to do

She has me and she has you

I see you live on Love Street

There's this store where the creatures meet

I wonder what they do in there

Summer Sunday and a year

I guess I like it fine, so far

She lives on Love Street

Lingers long on Love Street

She has a house and garden

I would like to see what happens

La, la, la, la, la, la, la

NOT TO TOUCH THE EARTH

Not to touch the earth

Not to see the sun

Nothing left to do, but

Run, run, run

Let's run

House upon the hill

Moon is lying still

Shadows of the trees

Witnessing the wild breeze

C'mon baby run with me

Let's run

Run with me

Let's run

The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill

Rich are the rooms and the comforts there

Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs

And you won't know a thing till you get inside

Dead president's corpse in the driver's car

The engine runs on glue and tar

Come on along, not goin' very far

To the East to meet the Czar

Run with me

Let's run

Whoa!

Some outlaws lived by the side of a lake

The minister's daughter's in love with the snake

Who lives in a well by the side of the road

Wake up, girl, we're almost home

Ya, c'mon!

We should see the gates by mornin'

We should be inside the evenin'

Sun, sun, sun

Burn, burn, burn

Soon, soon, soon

Moon, moon, moon

I will get you

Soon!

I am the Lizard King

I can do anything

SUMMER'S ALMOST GONE

Summer's almost gone

Almost gone

Yeah, it's almost gone

Where will we be

When the summer's gone?

Morning found us calmly unaware

Noon burn gold into our hair

At night, we swim the laughin' sea

When summer's gone

Where will we be

Morning found us calmly unaware

Noon burn gold into our hair

At night, we swim the laughin' sea

When summer's gone

Where will we be

Summer's almost gone

We had some good times

But they're gone

The winter's comin' on

Summer's almost gone

WINTERTIME LOVE

Wintertime winds blow cold the season

Fallen in love, I'm hopin' to be

Wind is so cold, is that the reason?

Keeping you warm, your hands touching me

Come with me dance, my dear

Winter's so cold this year

You are so warm

My wintertime love to be

Winter time winds blue and freezin'

Comin' from northern storms in the sea

Love has been lost, is that the reason?

Trying desperately to be free

Come with me dance, my dear

Winter's so cold this year

And you are so warm

My wintertime love to be

La, la, la, la

Come with me dance, my dear

Winter's so cold this year

You are so warm

My wintertime love to be

THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER

Wait until the war is over

And we're both a little older

The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read

Television children fed

Unborn living, living, dead

Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And it's all over

For the unknown soldier

It's all over

For the unknown soldier

Hut

Hut ho hee up

Hut

Hut ho hee up

Hut

Hut ho hee up

Comp'nee

Halt

Preeee-zent!

Arms!

Make a grave for the unknown soldier

Nestled in your hollow shoulder

The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read

Television children fed

Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And, it's all over

The war is over

It's all over

The war is over

Well, all over, baby

All over, baby

Oh, over, yeah

All over, baby

Wooooo, hah-hah

All over

All over, baby

Oh, woa-yeah

All over

Heeeeyyyy

SPANISH CARAVAN

Carry me Caravan take me away

Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain

Andalusia with fields full of grain

I have to see you again and again

Take me, Spanish Caravan

Yes, I know you can

Trade winds find Galleons lost in the sea

I know where treasure is waiting for me

Silver and gold in the mountains of Spain

I have to see you again and again

Take me, Spanish Caravan

Yes, I know you can

MY WILD LOVE

My wild love went ridin'

She rode all the day

She wrote to the devil

And asked him to pay

The devil was wiser

It's time to repent

He asked her to give back

The money she spent

My wild love went ridin'

She rode to the sea

She gathered together

Some shells for her head

She rode and she rode on

She rode for a while

Then stopped for an evenin'

And lay her head down

She rode on to Christmas

She rode to the farm

She rode to Japan

And we entered a town

By this time the river

Had changed one degree

She asked for the people

To let her go free

My wild love is crazy

She screams like a bird

She moans like a cat

When she wants to be heard

My wild love went ridin'

She rode for an hour

She rode and she rested

And then she rode on

Ride, c'mon

WE COULD BE SO GOOD TOGETHER

We could be so good together

Ya, so good together

We could be so good together

Ya, we could, I know we could

Tell you lies

I tell you wicked lies

Tell you lies

Tell you wicked lies

Tell you 'bout the world that we'll invent

Wanton world without lament

Enterprise, expedition

Invitation and invention

The time you wait subtracts the joy

Beheads the angels you destroy

Angels fight, angels cry

Angels dance and angels die

Ya, so good together

Ah, but so good together

We could be so good together

Ya, we could, know we could
