 Reunion » Lyrics [+ Cuir +] |
1. _ By Surprise
I'd like to take you by surprise at the grocery store
Grab you by the hand and step on the electric door
Leave the shopping cart right where it is
I betcha somebody's got the same list
I wanna take us away from all this to a distant shore.
I'd leave the car by the curb with the motor on
The tape deck playin' our favorite love song
And you'd say "what in the world?"
And smile just like a little girl
And i'd say "i can't tell you now but it won't be long."
Chorus:
I know it sounds funny, but it's true...
I get so busy i forget i'm in love with you
And every now and then we need to get away to get close again.
Up in the air in a window seat
Your head on my shoulder and a blanket around our feet
We could leave the kids at home
And if you get worried we could telephone
We need a weekend of fun for under two hundred dollars complete.
(chorus)
There we would be in a sunny land
We'd lie on the beach and you could wiggle your toes in the sand
A tropical drink late at night
And a midnight dip if the temperature's right
The best things turn out better if they never were planned.
(chorus)

2. _ Ms. Rheingold
You're not ms. rheingold or ms. clairol
Or an ad for "learn to draw"
And you don't have the prettiest pair of legs i ever saw
But cellophane don't move me and can't turn my life around
You're the nicest piece of heart and soul
That i have ever found i've ever found.
You're not a farrah, or a brigitte, or a raquel pussy cat
Twenty generations of girls have tried to look like that
But class like yours ain't on the screen
And it's finally made me think
You can lead this horse to hollywood
But you cannot make me drink (can't make him drink).
Chorus:
I love you honey, you're the one for me
And it comes naturally ...
I don't want an image, i dont' want a movie star
I just want you baby the way you are.
You don't fill out the old bikini like a playboy bunny doll
In fact in that department you've got little there at all.
But in modern times we've gone beyond
The tarzans and the janes
While some just use their bodies
Others use their brains, darling, remember brains?
(chorus)
Bogart called them "baby", sinatra called them "dames"
And boyer calls them "ladies", (norman mailer calls us names)
But i don't need a label to know what you mean to me
So i'll just make it simple and call you frequently
(i'll call you frequently).
(chorus)
(chorus)
I just want you baby the way you are!!

3. _ Like The First Time
After all is said and done we need each other
For a million reasons we can't even name
All our roads still lead to one another
And for all we've been apart we're still the same.
Like the first time, only better,
We're a song that must be sung together!
Like the first time, only this time
Could it be forever?
Wondering if we're lost in an illusion
Are we starting now, did we never end?
Our different dreams have reached the same conclusion
And brought us here to fall in love again.
Like the first time only better
We're a song that must be sung together.
Like the first time, only this time
Could it be forever?
In the honesty of now with you beside me
There's an ease to love we've never known before
And though i know the past is still inside me
I feel as if i've never loved you more.
Like the first time, only better,
We're a song that must be sung together
Like the first time, only this time
Could it be forever?
Like the first time, only better,
We're a song that must be sung together.
Like the first time, only this time
It could be forever...forever.

4. _ I Need Me To Be For Me
Hey jess, i heard you talkin' on the telephone
And i wish that you could say it to my face
I know you think i've changed and i don't love you
But i've only reached another time and space.
I guess we've been avoiding total honesty
But we can't leave confrontation on the shelf
Though i know that love brought us together
In finding one another i almost lost myself.
Chorus:
I need me to be for me, to be free and to discover
I need me to be for me, and then we still can be for each other.
Who am i deprived of my identity
If i am not myself when we're apart
What is love that mirrors back no sense of me
What can i give to you now if it isn't my own heart?
(chorus x2)
And then we still can be for each other.

5. _ Forever Young
May god bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
And may you stay forever young.
Chorus:
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the light surrounding you.
May you always be courageous
Stand up right and be as strong
And may you stay forever young.
(chorus x2)
May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
And may you stay forever young.
(chorus x2)
May you grow up righteous and true,
See the light surrounding you
May you grow up righteous and true,
See the light surrounding you
May you ...(repeating) with (chorus)

6. _ Summer Highland Falls
They say that these are not the best of times
But they're the only times i've ever known
And i believe there is a time for meditation
In cathedrals of our own
Now i have seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes
And i can only stand apart and sympathize
For we are always what our situations hand us,
It's either sadness or euphoria...sadness or euphoria.
So we'll argue and we'll compromise and realize
That nothing's really changed.
For all our mutual experience our separate conclusions
Are the same.
Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity
Our reason co-exists with our insanity
And though we choose between reality and madness
It's either sadness or euphoria...sadness or euphoria.
How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies
Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies
And so we stand upon the ledges of our lives
With our expected similarities...it's either sadness or euphoria.
(repeat last verse)

7. _ Sweet Survivor
You have asked me why the days fly by so quickly
And why each one feels no different from the last
And you say that you are fearful for the future
And you have grown suspicious of the past
And you wonder if the dreams we shared together
Have abandoned us or we abandoned them
And you cast about and try to find new meaning
So that you can feel that closeness once again.
Carry on my sweet survivor, carry on my lonely friend
Don't give up on the dream, and don't you let it end.
Carry on my sweet survivor,
Though you know that something's gone
For everything that matters carry on.
You remember when you felt each person mattered
When we all had to care or all was lost
But now you see believers turn to cynics
And you wonder was the struggle worth the cost
Then you see someone too young to know the difference
And a veil of isolation in their eyes
And inside you know you've got to leave them something
Or the hope for something better slowly dies.
Carry on my sweet survivor, carry on my lonely friend
Don't give up on the dream, and don't you let it end.
Carry on my sweet survivor, you've carried it so long
So it may come again, carry on
Carry on, carry on.

8. _ Best Of Friends
Some things are different, some the same
Some turn over, some don't change
Time and music all forgive
And in the best of friends the spirit lives
Set in motion by the ages
Crossing notions, makin' waves
Two steps backward and three along
For the best of friends one more song.
The best of friends, the best of friends
For the best of friends one more song
(repeat) loud and ringing, high and low
Join the singing, let it flow
To the future from the past
Be the best of friends to the last
The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends to the last
(repeat three times)
Come together for the young
For your daughters, for your sons
Raise your voices and lift your hands
Be the best of friends while you can
The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends while you can
Come together for the young
For your daughters, for your sons
Raise your voices, and lift your hands
Be the best of friends while you can
The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends...the best of friends!

9. _ The Unicorn Song
When i was growing up my best friend was a unicorn
The others smiled at me and called me "crazy"
But i was not upset by knowing i did not conform
I always thought their seeing must be hazy.
The unicorn and i would while away the hours
Playing, dancing and romancing in the wild flowers
And we'd sing
(chorus)
Seeing is believing in the things you see
Loving is believing in the ones you love.
Seeing is believing in the things you see
Loving is believing in the ones you love.
When i was seventeen my best friend was the northern star
The others asked why i was always dreaming
When i did not reply i found my thoughts were very far
Away from daily hurts and fears and scheming.
The northern star and i would share our dreams together
Laughing, sighing, sometimes crying, in all kinds of weather
And we'd sing
(chorus)
And now that i am grown, my best friend lives inside of me
The others smile at me and call me "crazy"
But i am not upset, for long ago i found the key
I've always known their seeing must be hazy.
My friend inside and i would while away the hours
Playing, dancing and romancing in the wild flowers
And we'd sing
(chorus x2)
