1. _ Telepath
I`m leaving the smog below me now
I`m leaving my troubles on the ground
I`m watching those smokestacks just blaze away
The sky will be blue never grey
The future is filled with wasted time
I can`t see the road -- I`m going blind
I`m laughing at all of my future plans
Shining like gold in my hands
Isn`t it funny how you reach me
You know exactly what I`m thinking
You`re always helping me from sinking
It`s your way
Hello, this is London calling -- is my flight due
Hello, is there someway I can reach you
Isn`t it funny how you call me
You call me up while I am sleeping
You`re always helping me from sinking -- it`s your way
Now this is the end of all my dreams
The drumming has stopped behind my ears
There`s no looking back now -- I`m too far away
I`m shaking like mad in a daze. . .
Then out of the night you join me here
The people around me, they disappear
And I hear your voice, and you speak to my eyes
And everything comes alive

2. _ Why Is Everybody Going Home?
And if you say again to me
That we could all be free
I'll have to leave
Look at the sky
It's falling down
The world is spinning round
Without a sound
Where has all the lazy sunshine gone
Can anybody tell me
Why is everybody going home
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Oh have you stood
Before the wind
And let it blow your blues
So far away
Look at my life
Oh, what's the use
To everyone I know
Oh I'm a fool
Where have all the smiling faces gone
Can anybody tell me
Why is everybody going home
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me
Can anybody tell me

4. _ Giving It All Away
I paid all my dues
So I picked up my shoes
I got up and walked away
Oh, I was just a boy
Giving it all away
I didn't know how to play
I've worked hard and failed
Now all I can say is
I threw it all away
Oh, I was just a boy
Giving it all away
Sail away, sail away
Ooh, well I know better now,
I know better now
Giving it all away
Oh oh, I now better now,
I know better now
I've given it all away
Went out in the world
Too much for my nerves
Well, only myself to blame
See, I was just a boy
And there was nobody else to blame
I've done all I can
Now it's out of my hands
Stand on my head and say
Oh, I was just a boy
Giving it all away
Sail away, yeah sail away
Oh, I know better now,
I know better now
Ain't gonna give it all away
Oh oh, yeah yeah, I now better now,
I know better now
Ain't gonna give it all away
Ooh, I know better now
I know better now
I've given it all away
See I was just a boy
Giving it all away
I was just a boy
Giving it all away
Oh, I know better now
Giving it all away
I was just a boy

5. _ Drop Back
You hold my life in your hands
You build me as if I were a king
Your heart does not understand
I give you my everything
Oh the night that started with wine
Is ending just like it was a dream
I held her glove in my hand
I gave her my everything
Drop back
She said to me go back
Drop back
I fail to see why I
Should drop back
I held the cards in my hand
They fooled me just a pack of lies
It seems they wrecked all my plans
God knows how I really tried
Oh that night that started with wine
It's ending just like it was a dream
I hold her glove in my hand
I gave her my everything
Drop back
She said to me go back
Drop back
I fail to see why I
Should drop back
Drop back
She said to me go back
Drop back
I fail to see why I
Should drop back

6. _ Train
Running through my life
Like a river, like a song
Train keeps pushing me
Right back to the place where I belong...
Back along the tracks
Fly a million years
Right across my path
Train moves on ringing in my ears...
Come on board
Come on board
Train, oh train, take me back, again
I remember, I remember, take me back
Train, oh train, the journey ends and starts again
I remember, I remember, I remember
I`ve been up all night trying to get this down
Now I`m hallucinating
Staring at the wall look what I`m creating...
Look at the clock I`m twelve hours old
So many more remain
Way up ahead I know I see a train...
Come on board
Come on board
Train, oh train, all those memories, all over again
I remember, I remember, take me back
Train, oh train, the journey ends and starts again
I remember, I remember, I remember
Waited on the station all day
Just to see a glimpse of the morning train
Just to see the wheels turning round
Blowing up steam,
See what I mean,
You see what I mean...

7. _ S.O.L.O.
Used to see him hanging around everywhere
In a world of his own
See him hanging round street corners where
We would meet
He was a lonely kid
Now they tell us that he's moved on
Aint been seen for so long
Don't know here he's gone
It's been so long, but I'm on the road
And though it ain't been easy
At least I made it on my own
My tongue's been tied for far too long
And now your gonna hear me
At least I now where I belong
S.O.L.O. I'm on the road
Hello hello, I'm on my own
Ah y'see everybody's got someone
To lay their troubled lives upon
I'm really glad I've only got my own
Once upon a time, well I had lots of friends
I moved freely through their lives
But two's a couple and, well three's a crowd
I was just left out
Hanging around
I've had as much now as I can take
There ain't no need to stay
S.O.L.O. I'm on the road
Hello hello, I'm all alone
Ah yes everybody smiles at me
As I go walking by
But I'm really glad I've only got my own
S.O.L.O. I'm all alone
S.O.L.O. I'm going down the road

8. _ Another Time
Another time, love
You know I can`t quite recognise your face, love
Although I feel I know you from someplace, love
Another time, love -- but not now
Another face, love
I`m sure I know the voice, but not the face, love
I know you think I know you but then you`re wrong, love
I don`t know, love, who I am
Y`see I`m lost...
And I don`t know who I am
Another town, love
Tomorrow night I play another town, love
The show keeps rolling on and so it goes, love
I don`t know, love where I`m bound
I must be going now
I`m sorry I`m unsure
I must be going now
Maybe we`ll meet again
Another time, love -- another town -- another place
Y`see I`m lost
And I don`t know who I am

11. _ When I Came Home This Morning
Writers: Leo Sayer & David Courtney
When I came home this morning
I got your letter and what it said
I didn`t understand
You told me it was over -- au revoir -- see you again sometime
I didn`t understand
And overleaf you tell me that you love me...
Meet me on the corner
The usual time -- the usual place
I will be there
Meet me on the corner
I`ll see you coming -- then I`ll be sure
Sure you`ll be there
Oh and I want to tell you that I love you...
I see your face -- I see the night
I love you -- I love you
And deep in my sleep I see your eyes
I love you -- I love you
I stood on the corner
All the cars went sweeping by
Did somebody call me -- no there was no one there
Well I`ll go on waiting -- perhaps tomorrow
Another day -- I will be there
Oh and I want to tell you that I love you...

12. _ One Man Band
Well everybody knows down Ladbrook grove
You have to leap across the street
You can lose your life under a taxi cab
You gotta have eyes in your feet
You find a nice soft corner and you sit right down
Take up your guitar and play
But then the law man comes says move along
So you move along all day
Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band
For three days now I haven't eaten at all
My my you must be getting so thin
And soon my cap won't be large enough
To drop a half a crown in
So hey there mister don't you look so sad
Don't look so ill at ease
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead
Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band
And oh oh oh look at the rain falling
Oh oh oh look at it rain
Oh look at it rain
Well nobody sees the minstrel boy as he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him coming
Nobody see him go
So hey there mister don't you look so sad
Don't look so ill at ease
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead
Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band
Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band
Oh I'm a one man band
Just a one man band
Oh I'm a one man band

14. _ Long Tall Glasses (I Can Dance)
I was travellin' down the road, feelin' hungry and cold
I saw a sign sayin' food and drinks for everyone
So naturally I thought I would take me a look insi-ide
I saw so much food, there was water comin' fro-om my eye-eye
Yeah there was ham an' there was turkey, there was caviar
An' long tall glasses, with wine up to yar
Then somebody grabbed me, threw me outta my chair
Said before you can eat, you gotta dance like Fred Astaire-aire
You know I can't dance, you know I can't dance
You know I can't dance, you know I can't dance
I can't dance
I am a man of the road, a hobo by name
I don't seek entertainment, just poultry and game
But if it's all the same to you, then yes I will try-y-y my hand
If you were as hungry as me then I'm sure you would u-understand
Hmmm, now wait a minute
Of course I can dance of course I can dance
I'm sure I can dance, I'm sure I can dance
I can dance
I can da-hance, I really hit the floor
Ah it feels good, look at me dancin'
I did a two-step, quick-step and a bossa nova
A little Victor Silvester, and a Rudy Valentino
You should-a seen me movin', right across the floor
Hand me down my tuxedo, next week I'm comin' ba-ack for more
I can dance, oh yes, I can dance
Look at me dancin', the floors movin'
I feel good, I can dance
I can dance, I can dance, I can dance, I can dance, I can dance

15. _ In My Life
Seen a lot of good times in my life
Times when everything went so right
Seen a lot of things go wrong and I just don't know why
I've seen a lot of good times in my life
Had a bit of sadness in my life
Friend of mine went down the other night
Tried to sort it out but now I just don't know why
I've had a bit of sadness in my life
You see I am a lonely, lonely, man
And what I got, I got together with my own two hands
And I wonder what am I gonna do to put things right
I've seen a lot of good times in my life
I've taken lots of chances in my life
Now one of them has changed me overnight
I've seen a glimpse of the other side
The lights are much too bright
I've taken lots of chances in my life
You see I am a lonely, lonely, man
And what I got, I got together with my own two hands
And I wonder what am I gonna do to put these things right
I've seen a lot of good times in my life
I gotta do something with my life
Gotta make a change and put up a fight
Stand on my own two feet and do it right
I gotta do something with my life
You see I am a lonely, lonely, man
And what I got, I got together with my own two hands
And I wonder what am I gonna do to put things right
I've seen a lot of good times in my life

16. _ Oh Wot a Life
2, 3, 4
I wanna get back home
But the bar won't close
Till ten and thirty tonight
Oh boy, good God, wot a life
Some cat down there
Split his head wide open
And the doctor died of fright
Oh, wot a life
Every woman I see she says to me
"Get back to your wife"
Everyone I know got their little problems
Boy, I wanna see some life
The Fender got busted in the second set
And the pick-up's up the pike
And the Leslie sound goes round and round
And round and round
Oh boy, good God, wot a life
Get back in my car like a movie star
It's an Austin Healey Sprite, huh
Oh boy, wot a life
I think I'll go dig some weeds down at Mrs G's
Cut the cross-bar off her bike
Oh, wot a life
Every woman I see they say to me
"Now you know what I like"
Every woman I see they fix me up
Saying, "Get back to your wife"
Next number's called paranoia
It's the story of my life
And the gigs we do take me down and down
And down and down and down
Good God, wot a life
Now the next number we do is called paranoia
It's the story of my life
Oh, grr, wot a life
(Alright, may as well get out of here now:.)

17. _ Innocent Bystander
Standing by the railway station
Waiting for your train
But the train never comes
No, the train never comes
And I think I'm going out of my head
Yes I think I'm going out of my head
Running down the track
Trying to reach the end
But the end never comes
No, the end never comes
And I think I'm going out of my head
Yes I think I'm going out of my head
I've been waiting for the sun
But it always hides behind the sky
And time rolls by before my eyes
That's the story of my life
And I think I'm going out of my head
Yes, I think I'm going out of my head
Aaah - aaah
Aaah
Aaah
I've been waiting for the sun
But it always hides behind the sky
And time goes by before my eyes
That's the story of my life
And I think I'm going out of my head
Yes, I think I'm going out of my head
Well I Think I'm going out of my
I think I'm going out of my
I think I'm going out of my
I think I'm going out of my
I think I'm going out of my head

18. _ Goodnight Old Friend
Farewell old friend
Leave me now be gone
My soul is weak
My mind is never strong
Watch my hands at night
And see the way they're shaking
See the endless road
See the way it's taking
And it's still the same old night
And it still just don't seem right
And this darkness blinds my eyes
Writing down my life
On endless scraps of paper
Years of hanging round
A life of wasted labor
And it's still the same old night
And somehow it don't feel right
And this darkness blinds my eyes
Goodnight old friend
I'll see you once again
The dawn will come
And haunt me once again
Watch my life unfold
And see the shape it's taking
Watch my fingers write
And see the way they're shaking
And it's still the same old night
And somehow it don't feel right
And this darkness blinds my eyes
Goodnight old friend
I'll see you once again
The dawn will come
And haunt us once again
And it's still the same old night
And it's still the same old night
And it's still the same old night
Ah, it's still the same old night
