The Girl Yesterday
It wasn't reall sad the way said good-bye Or maybe it hurt so bad she couldn't cry He packed his things, walked out the door and away And she became the girl from He took a plane the sea To some foreign She at home and tried to understand How someone who had so close could be so far away And she became the girl yesterday She know what's right She doesn't know wrong She only the pain that comes from waiting for so long And she count the teardrops That she's cried he's away Because she deep in her heart That he'll be someday The light's on in the window; she's waiting by the Talking to a memory that's never home She of his returning and the things that he might say But she'll be the girl from yesterday Yeh, always be the girl from yesterday
Learn To Be
It's just another day in As you stumble to bed You'd give to silence Those voices ringing in your You thought you find happiness Just that green hill You thought you would be But you will- to be still We are like sheep without a We don't how to be alone So we wander 'round this And wind up following the wrong gods But the flock out for another And they keep that bell And one more messiah Meets a violent to be still Learn to be Now the flowers in garden They don't so sweet Maybe forgotten The heaven at your feet There are so many In all these messages we (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is and shaken Even if heart is breakin' It's for you to awaken And you will- to be still Learn to be You just keep on on runnin'
Tequila
It's tequila sunrise Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said He was a hired hand on the dreams he planned to try The go by Ev'ry night when the sun goes another lonely boy in town And she's out 'round She just another woman And I couldn't keep comin' on It's been so Oh, and a hollow feelin' when It comes to dealin' friends It never Take shot of courage Wonder why the words never come You just get It's another sunrise,this old world still the same, frame, mm...
Hotel
On a dark highway, cool wind in my hair Warm of colitas, rising up through the air Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering My head grew and my sight grew dim I had to stop for the There she in the doorway; I heard the bell And I was to myself, 'This could be Heaven or this could be she lit up a candle and she showed me the way There were voices the corridor, I thought I them say... Welcome to the Hotel a lovely place Such a lovely of room at the Hotel California Any time of year, you can find it Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the bends She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, she calls friends How they in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. Some dance to remember, some dance to So I up the Captain, 'Please me my wine' He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since sixty nine' And those voices are calling from far away, Wake you up in the of the night to hear them say... Welcome to the California Such a lovely a lovely face They it up at the Hotel California What a nice surprise, your alibis on the ceiling, The pink on ice And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own And in the chambers, gathered for the feast The stab it with their knives, But they just can't the beast Last I remember, I was Running for the I had to find the back To the I was before 'Relax,'said the man, We are to receive. You can any time you like, but you can leave!
