Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
Like a deep blue sea
On a blue blue day
Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
When the morning comes
I'll be far away
And I say
Blue eyes
Holding back the tears
Holding back the pain
Baby's got blue eyes
And she's alone again
Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
Like a clear blue sky
Watching over me
Blue eyes
I love blue eyes
When I'm by her side
Where I long to be
I will see
Blue eyes laughing in the sun
Laughing in the rain
Baby's got blue eyes
And I am home, and I am home again
CANDLE IN THE WIND '97 (E. John)
Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will
Loveliness we've lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry
For our nation's golden child
And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years
And it seems to me …
Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose
From a country lost without your soul
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you'll ever know
And it seems to me …
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
From the day we arrive on the planet
and blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen
than can ever be seen
more to do than can ever be done
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed
as they join the stampede
You should never take
more than you give
In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
on the path unwinding
in the circle, the circle of life
Some of us fall by the wayside
and some of us soar to the stars
and some of us sail through our troubles
and some have to live with the scars
There's far too much to take in here
more to find than
can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
through the sapphire sky
keeps great and small on the endless round
In the circle of life …
It's the wheel of fortune, yeah
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
on the path unwinding, yeah
in the circle, the circle of life
On the path unwinding, yeah
in the circle, the circle of life
I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy
and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing
called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids
were Rocking Round the Clock
we were hopping and bopping
to the Crocodile Rock
Well Crocodile Rocking
is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time
and I guess I never will
Oh Lady mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking
was out of sight
But the years went by
and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us
for some foreign guy
Long nights crying
by the record machine
dreaming of my Chevy
and my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill
the thrills we've got
burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
we really thought
the Crocodile Rock would lasts
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights
heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel,
must be the clouds in my eyes
They say Spain is pretty
though I've never been
Well Daniel says
it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh and he should know,
he's been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel,
oh I miss him so much
Daniel my brother
you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain
of the scars that won't heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights
heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel,
must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel,
must be the clouds in my eyes
DON'T GO BREAKING MY HEART (E. John)
Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Oh, honey if I get restless
Baby you're not that kind
Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Oh, honey when you knock on my door
Oh oh, I gave you my key
Oh oh, nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Oh oh, nobody knows it
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
And nobody told us
`Cause nobody showed us
And now it's up to us babe
Oh, I think we can make it
So don't misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
Oh oh, you put the sparks to the flame
I've got your heart in my sights
Oh oh, nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Oh oh, nobody knows it
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN ON ME (E. John - G. Michael)
I can't light no more of
you darkness,
all my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me,
frozen here on the ladder of my life.
Is not too late to save myself from falling,
I took a chance and changed your way of life
but you mistread, my meaning when I meet you,
close the door and left me blinded by the light…
RIT.: Don't let the sun go down on me,
although I search myself it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a frangement of your life to wander free
but loosing everything is like the sun going down on me.
Musica……..
I can't find, oh the right
romantic line,
but see me once and see the way I feel
don't discard me just because you think I mean your harm
but these cuts I have, they need love to help them heal.
Hey Nikita is it cold
in your little corner of the world?
You could roll around the globe
and never find a warmer soul to know.
Oh I saw you by the wall,
ten of your tin soldiers in a row,
with eyes that looked like ice on fire,
the human heart a captive in the snow.
Oh Nikita you will never know
anything about my home.
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you.
Nikita, I need you so.
Oh Nikita is the other side
of any given line in time.
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
oh no, Nikita you'll never know.
Do you ever dream of me?
Do you ever see the letters that I write?
When you look up through the wire,
Nikita do you count the stars at night?
And if there come the time
guns and gates non longer hold you in
and if you're free to make a choice,
just look towards the west and find a friend.
Oh Nikita you will never know
anything about my home.
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you.
Nikita I need you so.
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time.
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row,
oh no, Nikita you'll never know.
Oh Nikita you will never know,
never know anything about my home.
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you.
Nikita I need you so.
Oh Nikita is the other side
of any given line in time.
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row,
oh no, Nikita you'll never know.
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row.
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row.
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row.
She packet my bags last night pre-flight
zero hour Nine A.M.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then.
I miss my earth so much I miss my wife,
it's lonely out in the space
on such a time less flight
RIT.: And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'till touch down brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone.
Mars ain't the kind of place to rise the kids,
In fact it's cold…as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did.
And all this science I don't
understand,
it's just my job five days a week
A Rocket man…….a rocket man…..
RIT.: And I think…
SORRY SEEMS TO BE THE HARDEST WORD (E. John)
What have I got to do to make you love me
what have I got to do to make you care
what do I do when lightning strikes me
and I wake to find that you're not there?
What have I got to do to make you want me,
what have I got to do to be heard,
what do I say when it's all over?
Sorry seems to be the hardest word
RIT.: It's sad, so sad, it's a sad, sad, situation,
and it's getting more and more absurd
it's sad, so sad, why can't we talk it over?
And it seems to me…
sorry seems to be the hardest word…
(musica)
RIT.: It's sad...
What have I got to do to make you love me,
what have I got to do to be heard
what do I do when lightning strikes me…
what have I got to do?
what have I got to do? Sorry seems to be the hardest word…..
I saw you dancing out the ocean,
runnin' fast along the sand
a spirit born of earth ahd water
fire flying from your hands…
In the istant that you love someone,
in the second that the hammer hits
reality runs up you spine,
and the pieces finally fit.
RIT.: And all I ever need was the One,
like freedom feels where wild horses run
when stars collide like you and I
no shadows bolck the sun
you're all I ever need, oh baby you're the One.
There are caravans we follow,
drunken nights in dark hotels
when chances breathe between the silence,
where sex and love no longer gel
For each man in his time in Cain,
until he walks alond the beach
and sees his future in the water
a long lost heart whitin his reach.
RIT.: And all I ever needed…..
YOUR SONG (E. John)
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside,
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did,
I buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor but
than again
or a man who makes potion in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
my gift is my song and this one it's for you
RIT.: And you can tell everybody this is your song
it may be quite simple but now that's it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
than I put down the words:
"How wonderful life is while you're in the world"
I sat on the roof and kicked the moss
well I few of the verses well they got my quite cross
but the sun's be quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for the people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me for getting
but this things I do
you see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the things is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I ever seen.
