1.And It's Better Now
( rossi / young )
Riding along on the words of a song in my head
Thinking all day of the thoughts in my mind never said
I have needed a friend, over and over again
Everyone sings of a god they have known
Now i have a god of my own
And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now i got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now i got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Dreaming away, never wishing to be anyone
Never a question or reason to find right or wrong
When i looked at the end, over and over again
Riding along on the words of a song
Thinking my time had all gone
And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now i got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now i got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
2.Blue Eyed Lady
( lancaster / parfitt )
Little blue eyed lady
How come you're all alone
I've been asking
No one seems to know
To whom do you belong
Little blue eyed lady
The band are really moving
Everyone is grooving around
Little lady
You're still sitting down
Excuse me if you will
Little blue eyed lady
The party's nearly over
Your eyes still read the same
Are you looking
For one who never came
Are you a passing cloud
Or a new found baby
Little new found baby
How come you're all alone
I've been asking
No one seems to know
Are you a passing cloud
Little blue eyed lady
3.Caroline
( rossi / young )
If you want to turn me onto
Anything you really want to
Turn me onto your love sweet love
If the night-time is the right time
Anytime of yours is my time
We can find time for love sweet love
Come on sweet caroline
You're my sweet caroline
You know i want to take you
I've really got to make you
Come on sweet caroline
Take my hand together we can rock-n-roll
When i'm thinking of you sleeping
I'm at home alone and weeping
Are you keeping your love sweet love
Do you still care when i'm not there
Do you really wish i was there
Can i come there for love sweet love
Come on sweet caroline
You're my sweet caroline
You know i want to take you
I've really got to make you
Come on sweet caroline
Take my hand together we can rock-n-roll
4.Claudie
( rossi / young )
It's so long since i sang songs to you
I forget all the words i once knew
I could look back
But i can't waste the time
Did it matter
They sometimes didn't rhyme
It's so long since i sang songs for you
It's so long since you smile just for me
Now your smile's just an old use to be
Does it matter
That i can take the time
Would you rather
I write you one more line
Can my songs once again be for you
Claudie made a fool out of me
Made me find another place to be
I've been living alone
In a house that wasn't my home
With claudie is the place i want to be
When i left did you think of me crying
Did you care that i felt i was dying
I pretended
That i don't give a damn
All along
I've know what i really am
I'm a fool little claudie just for you
Claudie made a fool out of me
Made me find another place to be
I've been living alone
In a house that wasn't my home
With claudie is the place i want to be
5.Forty-five Hundred Times
( rossi / parfitt )
There's nobody on the end of my line
I'm in time but somebody's missing
Maybe i can find a hand for my hand
If i find a well for my wishing
Be my friend, be my friend
It gets lonely on a table for two
Laughing on your own can be no fun
Even people that are talking to you
Remind you that you're really with no-one
Be my friend, be my friend
Take me over like a thing from the past
Lots of people wishing they'd been there
No-one knowing just how long it would last
But i'm sitting still here in my chair
Be my friend, be my friend
Forty-five hundred times i told you how much i care
Forty-five hundred times i told you how much i care
Problems halved are the problems that we can share
White lies in our eyes, together not really there
Forty-five hundred times i told you you can lean on me
Forty-five hundred times i told you you can lean on me
Though it's taken a long time for you to see
Where we're at is the right place for us to be
I sure want to stay here, it sure feels fine
I feel i could be here a long long time
Now that i've made it, i don't want to fade it
Now that i've made it with you
We came a long way, a slow way too
Up from the down way and back to you
Now that i've made it i don't want to fade it
Now that i've made it with you
6.Reason For Living
7.Roll Over Lay Down
( parfitt / rossi / lancaster / young / coghlan )
When i got home that night early one morning
Seeing the note written in ink pinned to the door
Taking a drink cool from the fridge from the table
I drank a toast you were the most the night before
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where i've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When i get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the care you showed in the note the night before
Maybe i won't take a drink from the table
Reckon i'll lay me straight down the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where i've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When i get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the care you showed in the note the night before
Maybe i won't take a drink from the table
Reckon i'll lay me straight down the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where i've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
8.Softer Ride
( lancaster / parfitt )
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
Stay in bed
Til' i'm satisfied
And let my head
Take a softer ride
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
Find me a schack
Where it's cool inside
Turn my back
On the cold outside
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
I could go back
To the job i had
But the same old thing
Only drives me mad, so
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
Never again
Will i have to be..down
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
Stay in bed
Til' i'm satisfied
And let my head
Take a softer ride
I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
