2.Neon Rainbow
作詞:Errol Thompson
The city lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with electric faces
What they find the glow erases
And what they lose the glow replaces
And life is love
In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow
Moving lights, flashing signs
Blinking faster than the mind
Leading people with suggestions
Leaving no unanswered questions
You can live without direction
And you don't have to be perfection
And life is love
In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow
But in the daytime everything changes
Nothing remains the same
No one smiles anymore
And no one will open his door
Until the night time comes
And then the city lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with the electric faces
What they find the glow erases
And what they lose the glow replaces
And life is love
In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow
A neon rainbow

In a little church just down the street
I met her in church, had a wedding in church

You gonna be happy for the rest of your life

11.Sweet Cream Ladies, Forward March
作詞:J Stroll, B Weinstein
Sweet cream ladies, forward march
The world owes you a living
Sweet cream ladies, do your part
Think of what you're giving
To the lost and lonely people of the night
Out of need, they seek direction for their life
They will love you in the darkness
Take advantage of your starkness
And refuse to recognize you in the light
Sweet cream ladies, forward march
Think what you're providing
Sweet cream ladies, show your starch
What's the use of hiding?
Tell the socialites to look the other way
It's instinctive stimulation you convey
It's a necessary function
Meant for those without compunction
Who get tired of vanilla every day
Sweet cream ladies forward march
Puritans ignore them
Sweet cream ladies do their part
Sweet cream men adore them
Let them satisfy the ego of the male
Let them fabricate success to those who fail
And should penalties pursue them
When there's really credit due them
They might keep a simple fellow out of jail
Sweet cream ladies, forward march
Sweet cream ladies, forward march
Sweet cream ladies, forward march
...

You could see the love look in our eyes
You could see we make it together, forever
You should love someone the way that I do
Don't you know, that your whole life's a stage?
Tryin' to find somebody gonna love you
Love you like mine, if only for your own sake
You could see we make it together
You could see the love look in our eyes
You could see we make it together, forever
You could see a long time love in action
We're livin' and we're lovin' our lives away, yeah
Oh, you could see we make it together
You could see the love look in our eyes
You could see we make it together, forever

14.I Shall Be Released
作詞:Bob Dylan
They say everything can be replaced
They say every distance is not near
So I remember every face
Of every man who put me here
I see my life come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
They say every man needs protection
They say that every man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall
I see my life come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
Now he understands a man in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him shouting so loud
Just crying out for he was framed
I see my life come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
15.The Happy Song
Verse:
Listen here, band up there, on the stand,
Sing a joyful song so we can all sing too
Hum a merry tune to us that fits our mood
Simple little feelings we'll derive from you…
Sing us a happy little song that we can dance to
Sing us a song, a song of love and happiness
A flowing, going ride and, oh, please do your best
Light and fast, you know, but still, with tenderness…
Sing us a happy little song, now, and we can do the rest
We could light the night if we just let feelings flow…
Just let ourselves go…
Don't you know?

We could light the night if we just let feelings flow…
Just let ourselves go…

Years of loving me
And years of loving only you
