He is a lineman for the county
And he drives the main road
Searchin' in the sun
For another overload
I hear you singin' in the wires
I can hear you through the whine
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line

I know I need a small vacation
But it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Will never stand the strain
And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line
Still on the line . . .

He asked me to stay and he told me to sit anywhere
But I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair

I once had a guy
Or should I say
He once had me

He showed me his room
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?

He asked me to stay and he told me to sit anywhere
But I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair

I sat on the rug
Biding my time
Drinking his wine

We talked until two
And then he said
It's time for bed

He told me he worked in the morning and started to laugh
I told him I didn't and crawled out to sleep in the bath

And, when I awoke
I was alone
This bird had flown

So, I lit a fire
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?

He asked me to stay and he told me to sit anywhere
But I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair

I sat on the rug
Biding my time
Drinking his wine

We talked until two
And then he said
It's time for bed

Some time ago I had a dream
It was happy, it was lasting, it was free

And now in life, oh, can't you see
How we can make that dream into reality

Oh, the music, it was playing
Oh, the firelight, it was dancing
All the children, they were singing
All the people, they were loving

Some time ago I had a dream
It was happy, it was lasting, it was free

And now in life, oh, can't you see
How we can make that dream into reality

Oh, the morning sun, it was soft and cool
Oh, the evening breeze, it was warm and gold
All together life had started to unfold

Some time ago

A música estava tocando
Os fogos estavam dançando
E as crianças a cantar
E as pessoas a se amar

O sol da manhã suave e tranqüilo
A brisa da noite quente e dourada
E a nossa vida recém começava, desabrochava
Há um tempo atrás

Everybody knows I'm moaning
I'm alone and crying the blues
I'm so tired of paying the dues
Everybody knows I'm moaning
'Cause of all the trouble I've seen
Life's a losing gamble to me
Everybody knows I'm moaning

Lord I stay plenty of days and nights alone with my grief
And I pray, really and truly pray somebody will come and bring me relief

Everybody knows I'm moaning
I'm alone and crying the blues
I'm so tired of paying the dues
Everybody knows I'm moaning
'Cause of all the trouble I've seen
Life's a losing gamble to me
Everybody knows I'm moaning

Sleepy sun it's time to rise and shine
Just take a look who's mine
See who's in love with me
Gentle wind his smile will make your day
He'll take your breath away
And he's in love with me

Weeping willow you can dry your tears now
When he passes by you wouldn't want to cry
You won't believe your eyes
What a sweet surprise

Oh just look who's mine
Can you believe who's mine
That he's in love with me
He's in love with me

Listen sun
I know you're leaving soon
Be sure to warn the moon
He's got a treat in store
In my arms are all my wildest dreams
And crazy as it seems
He's here in love with me

Oh look who's mine
Can you believe who's mine
Look who's mine
I can't believe he's mine
Look who's mine
Can you believe he's mine
Look who's mine
I can't believe he's mine . . .

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

Especially people
Who care about strangers
Who care about evil
And social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

Especially people
Who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to give in
Easy to help out
Easy to help out
Easy to be cold
Easy to say no
Easy to be true
Easy to be hard

Where Are You Coming From?

[Нет текста]

. . .


There are lines in life to show you the way to say goodbye
There are signs in life to comfort the love that wonders why
But there's no lines that come to me
And there's no signs that I can see
And where's the love that used to be in your eyes?

So the masquerade of feeling pretending that you care
And the smile's upon your face when the light is in your hair
But there's no feelings that we can share
Providing love that isn't there
Perhaps a world alone and bare is what we are

You alone are in my thoughts, dear, stealing all this painfulness
Tears belong to those who cry while prisoned in their loneliness
Can you hide this kind of feeling flowing from your every move?
Please be kind if not revealing a broken heart will always lose

. . .


What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No. not just for some but for everyone

No, we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
Oceans and rivers enough to cross
Enough to last, till the end of time

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some but just for everyone

What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now

Lord, we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
Oceans and rivers enough to cross
Enough to last, till the end of time

What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now
What The World Needs Now . . .
