1.A Man Like Me
Written:James Young Vocals By James Young
Yeah
Eight days a week with my baby at home
And you know that she's my tender honey
Baby i've been good
But you know it's rough
When you're spending all of my money
Ain't no disputin' i'm your man
You know i want to tell the world
You're the only woman
Show me what love can be
You're the only woman
That understands a man like me
Rock and roll is a way of life
But don't you know it brings me down
Music is my game but when i'm home
I treat a lady like she's wearing a crown
Stranded in the storm 'round lakewood way
You know who comes to mind
She's the only woman
Show me what love can be
She's the only woman
That understands a man like me
When i'm away with time to kill
Just sittin' around gettin' high
Thinking about your sweet sweet love
I wanna jump on a plane and fly
Sweet little susie
Show me what love can be
She's the only woman
That understands a man
She understands a man
(like me)
She's the only woman
She's the only woman
She's the only woman
2.A Song For Suzanne
Written:Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
Chanson, suzanne
I'm just a man
Please let me
Sing my song
It's been ten years
Since i met you
And i first held your hand
My suzanne
That summer night
We dreamed of
Days to come
I held you there
Beside me
We carved the wishing tree
And then
We played the part of lovers
On that summer night
We played the part of lovers
You gave all your love and you made it seem right
You made me a man oh so young in my life
One simple verse
Like the words in a play
You spoke your lines
And i knew i must stay
Oh i must stay
Now we are free
And we are growing old
The wishing tree still stands there
And shades our memories
Of when
We played the part of lovers
On that summer night
We played the part of lovers
You gave all your love and you made it seem right
You made me a man oh so young in my life
3.Best Thing
Written:James Young/Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis D
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever had
Silk and satin make me wonder
Just who i am
To be with you in times of slumber
Makin' me a man
I haven't known you for a very long time
But it's on my mind what i want to do
A trip to the skies we begin to fly
Oo-oooh
All the riches i have taken
From you every night
Pay you back someday with interest
'cause your loving makes it right
Yeah
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That i ever, ever had
Oh yeah
Best thing
(repeat to fade)
4.Christopher, Mr. Christopher
Written:Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
I remember christopher
Such a man
So brave and tall
He took the baby jesus
In his arms
Across the waterfall
People cried, 'he's holy!
He's a saint not a man!'
All at once it was written
In the book of the land
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
There was mary margaret
A christian lady
Dressed in black
She believed st. christopher
Helped her find
A way back
She told him all her secrets
And the dreams of her years
So when they took that saint away
All that's left were her tears
Mary cried 'they're crazy!
The world is changing too fast!'
It was then she discovered
That her faith couldn't last
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, mr. christopher
Why won't they leave you alone?
5.Evil Eyes
Written:Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
Evil eyes
Stole my heart on a dark december night
Souls of flame
Loving her has made me half insane
The way she cast me
In her spell
Secrets i couldn't tell
Were for me
And for you
Once i knew
The joys of loving were for me and you
But now she's here
And with her secrets i know i'll have to bear
To let her take me
From your side
Rob me of all my pride
And my love
Oh sweet love
Evil eyes
She's got those
Evil eyes
Though i'm only her friend
I know i'll love her till the end
Of my life
Oh sweet life
Evil eyes
She's got those
Evil eyes
Though i'm only her friend
I know i'll love her till the end
Of my life
6.Golden Lark
Written:Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la la
One day you're up
And the next day you're down
And all your dreams
Pass you by
You sit in your room
With your face in a frown
Waiting for her
Last goodbye
And all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Won't make her stay any more
And all of the plans you've made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who can't sing any more
Once in awhile you remember her laugh
For she could make you feel strong
'twas then that you thought your love always would last
But now it seems you were wrong
And all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Won't make her stay anymore
And all of the plans you've made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who can't sing any more
Golden lark won't you sing any more
Golden lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
She's a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within
Golden lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
She's a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la la

9.Man Of Miracles
Written:James Young/Raymond Brandle/Dennis Deyoung V
He was a man of miracles
Fighting the solar windstorm
A winged horse guides his way
Oracle of the ancient midnight
Calls forth everlasting pain
And i know, yes i know
He was a man of miracles
Riding golden meteorites
Ruler of distant galaxies
Born of the northern lights
Of the northern lights
Sorcerer of the dark moon
Who dare incur his rage?
First child of the scorpion
Prophet of the crystal age
And i know, yes i know
He was a man of miracles
Riding golden meteorites
Ruler of distant galaxies
Born of the northern lights
Of the northern lights
He was a man of miracles

11.Southern Woman
Written:James Young/Raymond Brandlevocals By James
First met you in a southern town
On a warm november day
You made me smoke like a whirlwind
I knew we had nothing to say
Love me but don't try and make me stay
Southern woman
Take my soul but don't you take my life
Southern woman
Make me feel good but don't you tell my wife
Once again in the early spring
I touched your raven's crown
Your wild eyed stories of rare delight
Like to knock me down
It's getting so damn hard to put you down
Southern woman
Take my soul but don't you take my life
Southern woman
Make me feel good but don't you tell my wife
Southern woman
Take my soul but don't you take my life
Southern woman
Make me feel good but don't you tell my wife
Southern woman
Take my soul but don't you take my life
Southern woman
Make me feel good but don't you tell my wife
Southern woman
Yeah
12.Unfinished Song
Written:Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
Where am i going
How do i get there
What should i bring along
Are people kind there
Is peace of mind there
Will i finally belong
Cause you know ships sail their courses
And heroes ride horses
They know where they belong
But i travel in circles
Quickly to nowhere
Singing my unfinished song
Some poets say that
There'll come a day that
I'll find a place for me
Why aren't i there yet
Why can't i share yet
Why can't my heart be free
Cause you know ships sail their courses
And heroes ride horses
They know where they belong
But i travel in circles
Quickly to nowhere
Singing my unfinished song
