Unless you believe in magic
There ain't much left you can be
A skeptic or a fool
Have you been watching your TV
Incredible is all I think of
Did I really see
Wordless faces double talkin'
A runnin' it down to me...

About buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time

People goin' hungry
Ain't no jobs, they's in the street
Nobody's got no answer
They're just staring at their feet
Ain't no doubt about it
Things are lookin' pretty bleak
An' everybody's scufflin' hard
Tryin' to make ends meet

About buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time

It happened once before, you know
In 1932
But now there's so many more of us
There's something we gotta do
Something radical, something different
Got to hit on something new
America, the dream is lost
And it's killin' me and you

About buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time

. . .


There's a whole lot of magic
When you're in Paris
And I swear I've never seen
So many pretty women go by
And I can't stop from dancing
I'm spinning 'round like a clock
That's wound up too tight
I want to tell you 'bout all I see

Stars in my eyes that you would not believe
I'm a little funky wearin' out my shoes
Don't mean anything unless I'm dancin' with you
Midnight, midnight in Paris
Midnight, midnight in Paris

Donne mois ta main
Si je viens de loin
Je n'ai pas de remors ˆ te vouloir
Et ˆ te dŽsirer
Si je viens de loin
Moi je prux te parler de ma musique
Et parle moi de toi
Si tu veux me dire un jour bon quelque chose
J'ouvre un autre cotŽ de ma vie et tu dŽpose
Si tu veux te sentir un moment comme moi
Tu regarde moi quand je danse avec toi

Midnight, midnight in Paris
Midnight, midnight in Paris

Well, we'll have another bottle
Monsieur Luigi
So we can toast the autumn
Since it's all around
And I'll always remember
Singing in the park
When the rain
Came down
I want to tell you 'bout all I see

Stars in my eyes that you would not believe
I'm a little funky wearin' out my shoes
Don't mean anything unless I'm dancin' with you
Midnight, midnight in Paris
Midnight, midnight in Paris

Do you know me
Can you tell me so
Do you know how my
Motivations grow
And it's all right
That's something you ought to know about me

Are you into being on the line
Facing people one at a time
And it's all right
That's something you ought to know about me

You ought to know me
Well enough by now
Watching me growing
You are the why and the how
Ev'rything you show me
Making it so we need each other more and more
I'm not exactly altogether sure
That I could handle being left here all alone

I got a house honey
I need a home Yeah
We were speaking in diff'rent tongues
Still it mattered
We did what then was done
It's still all right
That's something you ought to know about me

Do you trust me
Do you trust yourself
Do you know when it's time to ask for help
It's all right
That's something you ought to know
'Cause it has to do with growing
That's something you ought to know about me

Soldier, soldier, soldier
Stuck in a hospital ward
Living in a wheelchair
Do you remember the war
It's not over
It'll never be over for you
It's not over
Till they stop playing war with you,
Soldier, Soldier

Do you remember who found you
The helicopter crew
Out of the Au Shan Valley
What could they do
It's not over
It'll never be over for you
It's not over
Till they stop playing war with you,
Soldier, Soldier

Was anybody with you
When you felt your body die
Knowing that you live on
The shell of a man to hide
It's not over
It'll never be over for you
It's not over
Till they stop playing God with you,
Soldier, Soldier
Soldier, Soldier

He's a perfect stranger,
Like a cross of himself and a fox.
He's a feeling arranger
And a changer of the ways he talks.
He's the unforeseen danger
The keeper of the key to the locks.
Know when you see him,
Nothing can free him.
Step aside, open wide,
It's the loner.

If you see him in the subway,
He'll be down at the end of the car.
Watching you move
Until he knows he knows who you are.
When you get off at your station alone,
He'll know that you are.
Know when you see him,
Nothing can free him.
Step aside, open wide,
It's the loner.

There was a woman he knew
About a year or so ago.
She had something that he needed
And he pleaded with her not to go.
On the day that she left,
He died, but it did not show.
Know when you see him,
Nothing can free him.
Step aside, open wide,
It's the loner.

Fancy Dan, gamblin' man
Top hat of the peanut man
Talk about your pot of gold
With a silver lining

Tumblin' dice, hit it twice
The boats and the flushes they sure look nice
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining
Stateline, give you a hard time
Don't you stay too long
Goodbye, pretty women I ain't stayin' on
Come on and...

Get a bunch, bet a bunch
If you come to gamble, better pack a lunch
For a pot of gold
With a silver lining.

The less you bet, stayin' in
The more you lose even when you win
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining

If you don't know when to stop
Lady Luck she gonna see you're taught
That there ain't no pot of gold
And no silver lining

Easy money, come too fast
Come too quick turn a good man bad
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining.

Have you seen
The ladies passing by
They don't seem to notice
That I'm lonesome and I cry
But soon they'll listen
I can tell you, tell you why
Gonna make a record
Gonna go sky high

I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna see if you can be moved
I don't wanna be a fool for you
Or be alone

Going to the city
All the hustlers in the street
Can't you imagine where
This country boy's head might be
Bright lights are shining
I can see in front of me
At night clockwork deception
Won't save or set us free

I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna see if you can be moved
I don't wanna be a fool for you
Or be alone

Gonna tour the country
Gonna play for all my friends
Such a positive action
I've got energy to lend
So come on down, we're cookin'
Let the rhythm get you high
Bring all the ladies
Tell them why, why, why

I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna see if you can be moved
I don't wanna be a fool for you
Or be alone

. . .


Don't turn your back on me
I love you
It may not mean that much to you
That's OK
But don't you turn away
Let me hear you say
I love you

Y si tu no me comprendes dijame lo.
Yo te dejarŽ tu sola y yo llorando
Y lo que llegar‡ you lo pasara
Como quieres querida como quieres tu.

There may be an angry sky
Above us
Come, let's look into our eyes
And love us
'Cause I won't turn away
Let me hear you say
I love you.

No me dejes miserable que quiero.
Y si vienes de su coraz—n como sientes tœ.
Oigame querida escucha me mi amor
De quiero infinamente par toda nuestra vida.

. . .


I met you in the strangest way
Into a night of crazy smiling faces
Had it been another day, the sound of a thousand voices wailing dismay
Having seen no other way,
We looked at each other once
And felt the love begin, love begin

'Cause you know there's a ring of love surrounding you and me
Ring of love in perfect harmony
Ring of love surrounding you and me
All the way
I've never met anyone ever could touch me so all the way
You know you're the first one to make me believe in something
People are full of lies
Always willing to compromise
Their love and their tomorrow
Such a sorrow, sorrow

The world is ours if we can cope
We don't have to lose the faith
That gave us this much hope
Let us blow with the wind
To seek out the fountain of life
And all its miracles, its miracles

'Cause you know there's a ring of love surrounding you and me
Ring of love in perfect harmony
Ring of love surrounding you and me
All the way
I've never met anyone ever could touch me so all the way
You know you're the first one to make me believe in something
People are full of lies
Always willing to compromise
Their love and their tomorrow
Such a sorrow, sorrow

'Cause you know there's a ring of love surrounding you and me
Ring of love in perfect harmony
Ring of love surrounding you and me

Can I tell a people story, it ain't too long.
There's very few that can face each other or themselves alone.

Circlin', round and about, no way out, no way in.
Circlin', hasslin' doubt when you know you can, well all right.
Feet, where are you goin', you're just circlin'.

The meaning of a runaround is a circle game.
Tellin' lies and bein' jive with the one you love hurts the same.

Circlin', round and about, no way out, no way in.
Circlin', hasslin' doubt when you know you can, well all right.
Feet, where are you goin', you're just circlin'.

Go on, do it, straight ahead.
Do what you know, the best you can, it's good for your head.
Think about all the times you just up and ran.
So go on, you got to try, give yourself a hand.

Circlin', round and about, no way out, no way in.
Circlin', hasslin' doubt when you know you can, well all right.
Feet, where are you goin', you're just circlin'.

Do you know that time is only water that we drink.
Washing under bridges all eventually they gonna sink.

Circlin', round and about, no way out, no way in.
Circlin', hasslin' doubt when you know you can, well all right.
Feet, where are you goin', you're just circlin'.
