Circle of Hands (Uriah Heep)

Circle Of Hands

Circle of hands, cold spirits’ plan,

searching my land for an enemy.

Came across love’s sweet cost

and in the face of beauty evil was lost.

Sky full of eyes. Minds full of lies.

Black from their cold hearts down to their graves.

Murder the dawn. Spreading their scorn.

Cursing the sun of which love was born.

We must keep them away or pretty soon we’ll pay

and count the cost in sorrow.

Sacrifice, the future has its price

and today is only yesterday’s tomorrow.

We must keep them away or pretty soon we’ll pay

and count the cost in sorrow.

Sacrifice, the future has its price

and today is only yesterday’s tomorrow - tomorrow.

Tomorrow  Tomorrow

Tomorrow  Tomorrow

All My Life (Uriah Heep)

All My Life

I had a little look for a minute today

and I told here there was something that I wanted to say.

Just sitting there glowing, with her red light on,

so I gotta move fast and it shouldn’t take long.

Maybe she will? Maybe she won’t?

You get yourself together cause she doesn’t say don’t.

I never ever thought I was looking for a wife

but I think I can love her for the rest of my life.

I only took one cause I couldn’t take two.

I want to make love and it’s gotta be you.

Every little thing that I ever tried to say

is coming out right in my own kind of way.

Take it, make it, the weather feels fine.

She must be Lady Luck and she’s gonna be mine.

I never ever thought I was looking for a wife

but I think I can love her for the rest of my life.

I will love you all my life.

Delilah (Tom Jones)

Delilah

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind

She was my woman
As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind

My, my, my, Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
I could see that girl was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free

At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
I cross the street to her house and she opened the door

She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn’t take any more


She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

My, my, my, Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn’t take any more
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn’t take any more

One Headlight (The Wallflowers)

One Headlight

So long ago, I don’t remember when
That’s when they say I lost my only friend
But they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste. She always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place

Chorus:
Hey, come on try a little. Nothing is forever
There’s got to be something better than in the middle
Me & Cinderella, we put it all together
We can drive it home with one headlight

She said it’s cold. It feels like Independence Day
And I can’t break away from this parade
But there’s got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed

And I seen the sign up ahead at the county line bridge
Saying all that is good and nothingness is dead
We’ll run until she’s out of breath. She ran until there’s nothing left
She hit the end. It’s just her window ledge

(chorus)

Well this place is old. It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn’t turn
Well it smells of cheaper wine, cigarettes. This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I’d like to watch it burn

I’m so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain’t changed, but I know I ain’t the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dying dreams
I think her death. It must be killing me

(chorus)

Games People Play (Tesla)

GAMES PEOPLE PLAY (Joe South)

All the games people play now, every night every day now

Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean

While they while away the hours in their ivory towers

Till they’re covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine

Oh we make one another cry, breakin’ hearts when we say goodbye

Cross our hearts and we hope to die, except the other was to blame

Either one will ever kill it, so we gaze and we make pretend

Thinkin’ ‘bout things that might have been, oh it’s a dirty rotten shame

 Chorus:

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee

Talkin’ ‘bout you and me, and the games people play

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee

Talkin’ ‘bout you and me, and the games people play

People walkin’ up to ya, singin’ glory hallelujah

Sayin’ what the hell’s it to ya, if we do it in the name of the Lord

We’re gonna teach ya how to meditate

[Preach our hearts from teacher’s faith]

Put them on a hell of hate, come on, let’s get on board

(chorus)

(Solo)

Look around, tell me what you see, what’s happening to you and me

Got burning my serenity, to the neighborhood at hand

‘Cos you’re givin’ up your sanity, or your pride and your vanity

Turn your back on humanity, ow, when you don’t give a damn, not a damn

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee

Talkin’ ‘bout you and me, and the games people play

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee

Talkin’ ‘bout everybody, talkin’ ‘bout you, ‘bout you and me

(Ladandaladandadada) you and me, (ladandaladandadadee)

I’m talkin’ bout the games, the games we all play

(Ladandaladandadada) ladanda, (ladandaladandadadee) ladandadadee

All the games, talkin’ bout the games people play

(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)

(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)

(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)
