Think Of Me

When you see those geese in the sky, think of me I can spread my wings and fly just like them And I can gallop across your open prairie While I dive below your deepest sea Think of me I'm gonna live long and I'm happy to report it back to you It's a window world and I saw a sign on the highway too As I flew over the wires and observed you livin' Like you haven't had the chance to do Think of me Well, I've got to finish up and get out of here right now I can slither in the ditches and cross below the roads But when you cross your heart and you hope to die And your dreams come tumbling down Think of me Think of me, think of me When you see those geese in the sky, think of me I can spread my wings and fly just like them I can gallop across your open prairie While I dive below your deepest sea Think of me Think of me, think of me

She Showed Me Love

You might say I'm an old white guy I'm an old white guy You might say that If I tell you what I see (what I see) You might not believe me (what I see) I saw old white guys trying to kill mother nature (what I see) Who they disparage I saw old white guys trying to kill mother nature (She showed me love) And I know she has a way with things (She showed me love) And now I see the light that brings (She showed me love)
Guitar Solo
You might say I'm a few bricks short of a load I'm a few bricks, I'm a few bricks short of a load You might say that If I tell you where I've been (where I've been) You might think I've lost my mind (where I've been) I saw young folks fighting to save mother nature (where I've been) I saw them standing (where I've been) I saw them standing for themselves I saw young folks fighting to save mother nature (She showed me love) And I know she has a way with things (She showed me love) And now I see the light that brings (She showed me love)
Guitar Solo
You might say I've been down a few roads I've been down a few roads You might say that If I tell you what I see (What I've seen) You might not believe me (What I've seen) 'Cause I saw mother nature pushing Earth in a baby carriage In a baby carriage I saw mother nature pushing Earth in a baby carriage (She showed me love) (She showed me love) (She showed me love)

Olden Days

Where have you been, my long-lost friend? We haven't talked since way back when And how is life with your new love I hope she's something from above Something happened yesterday I need to talk to you Now I'm finding out you moved away I'm reaching out to you today I saw you walking in the past You said your love would always last Then I saw you all alone Said your heart had turned to stone Nothing matters anyway I thought I heard her say to you Nothing matters anyway Then she walked away from you There was laughter in the air The children all were there Playing in the warming sun Counting dreamers, one-by-one I'm living in the olden days I found my friends along the way Some are here with me right now Some have disappeared somehow Where did all the people go? Why did they fade away from me? They meant so much to me and now I know That they're here to stay in my heart

Help Me Lose My Mind

Nothing bothers me 'cause I'm so happy Might look like it does, but that means nothing I got a face that gets me in trouble I got a voice that does its damage But I'm rescued now and this is all in my head I gotta win somehow and lose this mind instead It's always working on finding my weakness How I was made to feel and can't forget, can't forget Can't forget, can't forget
Guitar Solo
I try to make my way past this moment Move along 'til I'm new again I got my history that won't be leaving I gotta get somewhere where that's not me I gotta find a new television Got to find a new display system To make the sky look like the Earth is flattened I gotta get someone to sort this out, out for me Out for me, out for me Won't someone help me lose my mind? Won't someone help me lose my mind? Won't someone help me lose my mind?
Guitar Solo
I gotta find myself a new television Gotta get a new display system Make the sky look like the Earth is flattened I gotta get someone to sort this out for me Out for me Out for me, out for me Won't someone help me lose my mind? Won't someone help me lose my mind? Won't someone help me lose my mind?

Green Is Blue

We watch the old news, distracted As they talked on and on in the usual way About the latest lies, deceptions We saw tomorrow, we long for a better day And I know why green is blue There's so much we didn't do Oh, I know why green is blue We heard the warning calls, ignored them We watched the weather change, we saw the fires and floods We saw the people rise, divided We fought each other while we lost our coveted prize There's so much we didn't do That we knew we had to do And we know why green is blue We watched the species die, we saw the coral turning We watched the oceans rise We saw the pod of whales lay bloated On the shore where they baked, but we missed that sign We saw the polar bear, she floated On a piece of ice from another time So I know

Shut It Down

(Have to shut the whole system down) (Have to shut the whole system down) People tryin' to save this earth From an ugly death (Have to shut the whole system down) People tryin' to live Working in a world of meat factories (Have to shut the whole system down) All around the planet There's a blindness that just can't see (Have to shut the whole system down) They're all wearing climate change As cool as they can be (Have to shut the whole system down) Shut it down, shut it down Shut it down, shut it down (Have to shut the whole system down) That's the only way we can all be free (Have to shut the whole system down) Start again and build it for eternity (Have to shut the whole system down) What about the animals? What about the birds and bees? (Have to shut the whole system down) What about the bookshelves? What about the history? (Have to shut the whole system down) Shut it down, shut it down Shut it down, shut it down
Guitar Solo
Shut it down, shut it down Shut it down, shut it down (Have to shut the whole system down) When I look at the future I see hope for you and me (Have to shut the whole system down) Working, working for eternity Work it now (Have to shut the whole system down) When I look at the future I see hope for you and me (Have to shut the whole system down) Working for eternity Gonna shut the whole system down Got to shut the whole system down Got to shut the whole system down

Milky Way

She was lookin' like a friend of mine The first time I saw her face I was approaching at the end of the line The first time I ever saw her smile at me that way I was sailing in the Milky Way Losing track of memories that weren't that day Right by her side As the stars flew by I did collide with memory But somehow I survived And became free
Guitar Solo
She was walking like she knew Where she was going Walking like she knew She was walking right up to me I was sailing in the Milky Way Losing track of memories that weren't that day Right by her side As the stars flew by I did collide with memory But somehow I survived And became free The starry night with no moonshine The day without a cloud A long ladder but no one climbing A stranger in the crowd
Guitar Solo
There's a mermaid in the Milky Way With an ocean liner There's no moon tonight so you might see her And her ocean liner Up in the stars I was sailing in the Milky Way Losing track of memories that weren't that day Right by her side As the stars flew by I did collide with memory But somehow I survived And became free
Guitar Solo

Eternity

Woke up this morning in a house of love The birds were singing in the sky above The dogs were barking and the deer were free And we were living in a house of love Woke up this morning in a house of love Oh, fortunately I hope we're living in a house of love For eternity (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Eternity (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Eternity (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Eternity Then we were ridin' in my old car Along the coast and under the stars Your hair was blowing and the top was down And we were heading to my hometown We kept rolling 'cause you can't go back Got stopped at the railroad track The train of love was rolling by I reached over and touched your hand Waitin' on the train of love (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Train of love (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) The train of love (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Eternity (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) (Click, clack, clickity-clack, ooh) Eternity

Rainbow Of Colors

There's a rainbow of colors In the old USA No one's gonna whitewash Those colors away Now I know some might tell me That there's not room for all And they should just go back To the places they fall Where their lives lie there broken With no chance left at all And the leaders have spoken On that side of the wall There's a rainbow of colors In the old USA No one's gonna whitewash Those colors away But this I can tell you We the people are strong And we know that our brothers And our sisters in song Will always sing with us And will always be strong When the people have spoken And the walls are all gone There's a rainbow of colors In the old USA No one's gonna whitewash Those colors away

I Do

Show me that garden in the sun that you saw Let me see the flowers and the bees before they fall I know that you says they'll always be there I know you're not worried and I know you care And I know you ask all the same questions I do I do I do Show me that flock of birds that filled the sky Let me see the way they block the sun from my eye I know you said they'd always be there I know you're not worried, I know you care I know you ask all the same questions I do I do I do Why do I believe in you? Why do I believe in you? Why do I believe in you? Show me that water in the stream that you saw Let me see the sparkling clean and the fish swimming on I know you said they'll always be there I know you're not worried and I know you care I know you ask all the same questions I do I do I do I do Thanks for making all this happen again We're gonna do it just like we did back then I know that you said you'd always be there And I know you're not worried, and I know you care I know you ask all the same questions I do I do I do I do Why do I believe in you? Why do I believe in you? Why do I believe in you?
