| Another World |
| Lyrics |
| Space |
| I’m gonna make a
little space Around me A very special place Around me No-one can come in |
| Business |
| Don't
judge me Mama Don't tell me that I’ve done wrong It's a hard business It’s a hard business To make it on your own Don't judge me Papa If I can't handle the things in my head 'Cos it’s a hard business Such a hard business Walking on the edge I’ve got nothing and no-one in my life So how can I lose again Got my feet in muddy water But I’m gonna find that road again So I’ll be taking care of business ‘Cos I know what I’m looking for I’ve been working every hour God gives to Man But I still see the same closed door... I’ve got nothing but trouble in my life But I feel I’ve got a lot to give Every day I try to build a new world But I've had no-one to build it with I’ve been looking for a woman to share my hopes And I know I ain’t a patch on you And I’ve been thinking that a woman’s God’s gift to Man Are you thinking the same way too...? So don’t leave me Mama Don’t make me go on alone ‘Cos it’s a hard business Yes it’s a hard business Ooh Don’t leave me Papa When my belief in myself is gone ‘Cos it’s a hard business Such a hard business Tell me it’s a hard business Being on my own |

storm there's the dead of night seems there's no way back for me So little comfort in my lonely bed To know That It had to be And now I miss you in so many ways You know I miss you for so many Lonely days Oh... Why don't we try again In the dark there's a desert flower It blooms where no-one ever sees Our love was stronger than history Our love will never cease to be How can I live with you-as-a memory You hold The best part of me - oh - And now i miss you in so many ways You know I miss you for so many Lonely days On... Why don't we try again No use me waiting by the telephone You're gone Ä If ain't gonna ring And now I miss you in so many ways You know I miss you for so many Lonely lonely days and nights I know you miss me for so many Lonely days Oh... Why don't we try again Oh... Why don't we try again... |

| One Rainy Wish |
| back to Brian |
| Gold and
Rose - the colour of the dream I had Not too long ago Misty Blue and Lilac too Never to grow old There you were under the Tree of Song Sleeping so peacefully In your hand a flower played Waiting there for me I have never laid eyes on you Not before this timeless day But you woke and you - woh - smiled my name You stole my heart away You stole my heart away little girl - yeah All right! Gold and Rose - the colour of the dream I had Not too long ago Misty Blue and Lilac too Never to grow old Gold and Rose - the colour of the dream I had Misty Blue and Lilac too Gold and Rose - the colour of the dream I had Misty Blue and Lilac too Gold and Rose Gold and Rose Gold and Rose It's only a dream I'd love to tell somebody about this dream The sky was filled with a thousand stars While the sun kissed the mountains blue And eleven moons played across the Rainbows Above me and you Gold and Rose Gold and Rose The colour of a Velvet Wall That surrounds us |
| All The Way From Memphis |
| back to Brian |
| Forgot my
six-string razor And hit the sky Half way to Memphis 'Fore I realized I rang the Information My axe was cold They said she rides a train Down to Oriole Well it's a mighty long way down the dusty trail And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rail An' I look like a bum an' I crawl like a snail All the way from Memphis I got to Oriole - you know It took a month An' there was my guitar Electric Junk Some dude says Rock 'n' Rollers You're all the same Man that's your instrument I felt so ashamed Now it's a mighty long way down Rock 'n' Roll Through the Bradford Cities and the Orioles And you look like a star but you're still on the Dole All the way from Memphis Well it's a mighty long way down Rock 'n' Roll From the Liverpool Docks to the Hollywood Bowl An' you climb up the mountains an' you fall down the holes All the way from Memphis Well it's a mighty long way down Rock 'n' Roll An' your name gets hot and your heart grows cold An' you gotta stay a young man Ä you can never get old All the way trom Memphis It's a mighty long way down Rock 'n' Roll From the Bradford Cities an' the Orioles An' you look like a star but you're still on parole All the way from Memphis All the way from Memphis - All the way from Memphis... |
| Another World |
| back to Brian |
| In another
world Under another sky I see another story waiting To be told... And another You - wakes up - With another Me For that's the way we've come to he In Another World In a different place Way 'cross Time and Space The door is open wide Drawn to a different light Maybe we'll step inside In Another World We can show we care You can he sure I'm waiting there - In Another World When the dice were cast They laid a crazy path we follow to our graves But I know in different world We journey a different way So we live but life Isn't what it seems We're only living in our dreams In Another World You can believe I'll meet you here In Another World |
