Love grows.
Love grows, love grows
Yes it's true
I know we all gonna die
Yes, I know it's true
A human being is born
And the whole wide world
Is new before we die
Cause, love grows, love shows
Something new
A newborn child
Will give response
Yes I know it's true
A human being is born
And the whole wide world
Is new before we die
Love grows love shows
Something new
Like a flower in the spring
All will be new
Love grows love grows
Yes it's true
I know we all gonna die
Love grows, love shows 10X

Keep on Rolling
Keep on rolling.
All over here
Just keep on playing
And drink some beer
Still, keep looking
What I want to see
A rich young man
I would rather be
Oh ‘it's my pride
And I just can’t hide
Oh ‘it's my pride
Yes’ I won’t deny
Keep on playing
It will be fine
Swing it out
With a friend of mine
Still, keep searching
From day to day
Never stop dreaming
Rough ride away
Oh ‘it's my pride
And I just can’t hide
Oh ‘it's my pride
Yes’ I won’t deny
Keep on rolling.
All over here
Just keep on playing
And drink some beer
Still, keep looking
What I want to see
A rich young man
I would rather be
Keep on rolling , rolling
Keep on rolling , oh yeah

To know the truth

|
To know the truth.
I got my life.
I got my love.
I do my thing
What should it bring?
This is the world
It’s life
See what will work
and find out
To know the truth
Of loving life
Young hearts
Old minds
Some crazy dreams
Behavior things
To see what will work
And found out.
(Sax solo)
The highest note
The deepest thoughts
Young hearts
old minds
About the world
About life
See what will work
and find out
(Guitar solo)
I got my life.
I got my love.
I do my thing
What should it bring?
This is the world
It’s life
See what will work
and find out
(Sax solo)
End

Four strong winds
03:25
|

|
Four strong winds
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change, come what may
Our good times are all gone,
I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.
I Think I'll go out to Alberta,
Weather's good there in the fall
I got some friends that I could go to working for
Still I wish you'd change your mind,
If I asked you one more time
But we've been through that a hundred times or more
Four strong winds that blow lonely,
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change, come what may
Our good times are all gone,
I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if I'm never back this way.
Solo.
If I get there before the snow flies,
if things are looking good
You could meet me
if I sent you down the fare
But by then it will be winter
There ain’t too much for you do
Cause those winds sure blow cold ....” way out there
Four strong winds that blow lonely,
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change, come what may
Our good times are all gone,
I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if I'm never back this way.
I'll look for you if I'm never back this way.

No mercy
I have no mercy
And no more regrets
I lost my babe
She didn’t love me at last
She was my woman you know
She didn’t love me so
She has no mercy
She has no regrets
She was my babe
I didn’t love me at last
And now we’re struggling you know
Trying to find our way back
I have no mercy
And no more regrets
I lost my babe
She didn’t love me at last
She was my woman you know
She didn’t love me so
She has no mercy
She has no regrets
She was my babe
I didn’t love me at last
And now we’re struggling you know
Try to find our way back
And now we’re struggling you know
Try to find our way back

Play my songs.
Sometimes I will play my songs ‘for you my dear
Sometimes I will play my songs, around
Sometimes I just play around, around, around
But I always want to sing ‘for you.
Play my lonely songs
Sometimes ‘for you my dear.
“Lonely songs”
Just around, just around, just around.
Is it true you walking home ‘alone
Is it true you walking home ‘all-alone
all-alone, all-alone
Sometimes I will play my songs ‘for you my dear
Sometimes I will play my songs, around
Sometimes I just play around, around, around
But I always want to sing for you.

There’s on wind underground
Cool breeze in China.
Snow on the mountain.
Billion’s of people.
Nice to be there.
That’s for sure.
Nice to be there.
Blue sky in Holland.
Windmills too.
17 million people.
Nice place to be.
That’s for sure.
Nice place to be.
Bright sky in Egypt.
Lots of things to see.
Flowers in the desert.
Nice women too.
That’s for sure.
There’s on wind on the ground.
…..There’s on wind on the ground.

Contradiction
People raising high
With airplanes in the sky
We don’t talk about
This contradiction
Have you ever thought
Our nature our God
People fly around ....’ fly around
The crowd is raising high
In airplanes in the sky
We will talk about
Its a contradiction
I always thought
That our nature was our God
People fly around....’fly around
If you want to know
You got to let it go
People always speak
About this contradiction
Have you ever thought
Our nature our God
People fly around....’fly around
Fever raising high
Birds fly in the sky
People got to search
It’s a contradiction
You don’t have to go
ust let the people know
Birds fly in the sky....’in the sky....’in the sky
If you want to know
You got to let it go
People always talk
About this contradiction
I always thought
Our nature our God
People fly around....’fly around
I always thought
Our nature our God
People fly around....’fly around
I always thought
Our nature our God

Take me as I am
Why don’t you take me as I am
Why do you think that it's all over
You always reach the highest mountain
But always stuck between the hills
Its always dark in your mind
Why can you read between the lines
Oh’ take me as I am
You better leave me if you can.
I wanna to be with you
I want to see its true ‘aha-a-‘ah
If you want to be with me
nobody else will see ‘ah-ah
Why don’t you take me as I am
Why do you think that its all over
You always reach the highest mountain
But always stuck between the hills
Its always dark ‘ in your mind
Why can you read between the lines
Oh’ take me as I am
You better leave me if you can.
I wanna to be with you
I want to see its true ‘aha-a-‘ah
If you want to be with me
nobody else will see “ah-‘ah

It's all about money

It’s all about money
Carry the cash - and let us go
We never like — “to do it slow.
Always do it fast and do it nice
That’s the way you pay the price
Money talks
Money rocks
Money kills
Money fills
It’s all about money.
Doing the job six days a week.
Rich men playing hide and seek
Always do it fast and do it nice
But I'm still walking on black ice
Money talks
Money rocks
Money kills
Money fills
It’s all about money.
Carry the cash - and let us go
We never like — “to do it slow
Always do it fast and do it nice
That’s the way you pay the price
Money talks
Money rocks
Money kills
Money fills
It’s all about money.
It’s all about money.
………………money.
………………money.

I wane say you are a prisoner
Wane say you are a prisoner

Of your own life

Toe toe toe toe
Would you mind to be a listener?
Would you mind to be a listener?
Would you mind to be a listener?
Of your own heart
Your own heart
Toe toe toe toe
I wane to say you are a prisoner
I wane to say you are a prisoner
I wane to say you are a prisoner
Of your own thought

Would you mind to be a listener?
Would you mind to be a listener?
Would you mind to be a listener?
Of your own heart

Silence Came Over
by Hans Vleugel
Silence came over me
Since you run away
I love you more ‘than I ever can say
You hurt me before
Yes, I’m feeling pain
Never thought ‘that you would say
Our love was in vain
Silence came over
You’re all my life
Don’t run away
Well, I want you to stay
Don’t ask me questions
I want you to know
The sound of tomorrow
When you say I go
You leave me behind
I won't be unkind
Stay by the fire tonight
Don’t say, goodbye babe
Don’t say goodnight
Leave all your sorrow
I’ll wake you up tomorrow
Accordion solo
Silence came over
You’re all my life
Don’t run away
Cause, I want you to stay
Same simple song
Yes, It’s easy to sing
Sing it for a while,
It can only make you smile
It’s coming from my heart
It’s only apart
The last words of this song
Are just where they belong
Don’t laugh about me
Where would you be without me
Don’t chase the rainbow
When you need love just say so
Accordion solo
Silence came over
You’re all my life
Don’t run away
Cause, I want you to stay
End.
