00:30The red light of the party found you resting in a chair
00:40And I wanted to say if I could find a way
00:44Cause I'd love to see you again
00:48The loud was the music when we danced
00:52And as you slipped away
00:55All the geese were singing in the dawn
00:59As you promised me a day
01:03Through the garden of your smile
01:08I saw the backdrop of your life
01:11Along the rivers of your mind
01:15I saw the ever-changing plants and trees
01:21Through the garden of your smile
01:33Our date was Tuesday mid-July
01:36When next I kissed your face
01:40And you told me things of your younger days
01:44From the backdrop of your life
01:48The flowing lawn streams, lush and green
01:51On the rivers of your mind
01:55How you sat composed to the song of me
01:59Upon the ever-changing plants and trees
02:03Through the garden of your smile
02:08I saw the backdrop of your life
02:11Along the rivers of your mind
02:16I saw the ever-changing plants and trees
02:21Through the garden of your smile
02:29Through the garden of your smile
02:47Through the garden of your smile
02:55Through the garden of your smile
03:00Through the garden of your smile
03:16That's the way it should be
03:32Darling Kathy, baby I love you
03:38You're so like the girl that I've been dreaming of
03:48Soft and warm and flowing features
03:59Hide the sorrow that you feel so deep inside
04:07For I know I'm right, what I feel tonight
04:12Cannot be denied
04:15Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
04:20Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
04:37We can weld our lives together
04:52We can crystallize the fragrance of our days
05:02If I ever said I love you
05:13Darling Cathy, baby, I love you more than that
05:21For I know I'm right, what I feel tonight
05:26Cannot be denied
05:29Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
05:34Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
06:00Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
06:05Darling Cathy, baby, don't let go
06:29If you say you will come with me riding horseback for a day
06:38We can cross raily mountains to a sandy beach and bay
06:43If you think that life is beautiful do pass your words that way
06:49As is not to ask the questions we can't know the reason why
06:54Everything we see around us, colored light all circling round
07:08Is a puzzle and an answer that we will never find
07:13If you think that life is beautiful do pass your words that way
07:18As is not to ask the questions we can't know the reason why
07:32And next time I give you flowers from the sweetness of my heart
07:37Please don't try to find the value you've got them at the supermarket
07:42If you think that life is beautiful do pass your words that way
07:48As is not to ask the questions we can't know the reason why
07:53If you think that life is beautiful do pass your words that way
07:59As is not to ask the questions we can't know the reason why
08:13Woo!
08:28Walking down the street on Sunday Dreaming we could be so happy
08:35But every horse we packed our dreams on Was standing at the start stone classic
08:45Nobody knows Nobody knows about us
08:53Nobody sees What we are feeling inside
09:02Working in the heat on Monday Dreaming we could be so happy
09:09Swimming in an ice cream sundae Anything but work would be okay
09:19Nobody knows Nobody knows about us
09:27Nobody sees What we are feeling inside
09:36All that we wanted to do Is to lead our lives to be worthwhile
09:43All that we wanted to say Is there anyone here who feels the way we do?
09:55Nobody knows Nobody knows about us
10:03Nobody sees What we are feeling inside
10:25Nobody knows Nobody knows about us
10:35Nobody sees What we are feeling inside
10:54Nobody knows Nobody knows about us
11:24She was born the daughter of an everlasting spring
11:54With lips that breathed soft words of honey in my ear
12:03When our hearts and minds did wander Crossed to fill a void
12:13High above the stagnant swamp of freshly flattened air
12:24These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
12:32Good women they're so hard to find
12:40These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
12:47Good women they're so hard to find
13:03She was all the majesty in electrifying nights
13:13Had organized the flimsy moments in to fly
13:21Then flapped her wings that played compassion with a purple sky
13:31To stimulate the bubbles in my hourglass of time
13:41These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
13:49Good women they're so hard to find
13:56These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
14:04Good women they're so hard to find
14:11She was untold beauty in a never never dream
14:29Then frolicked in a sunshine shower floating down
14:38She chose a garment from some gliding voices passing by
14:48And wore a smile that stole from me the freedom of my joy
14:59These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
15:07Good women they're so hard to find
15:15These times ain't so good These times ain't no good
15:22Good women they're so hard to find
15:37Good women they're so hard to find
15:44Once was a time when I felt in my mind that I'd never give away to you
16:10Cause all that I wanted was to have you calling
16:16But you said our love would be blue
16:21L'amour est l'enfant de la liberté
16:27Try please to understand
16:32L'amour est l'enfant de la liberté
16:39Love is the child of freedom
16:47Once was a dream when I thought in my sleep that I could take control of you
16:58But you kept insisting your rights of resisting
17:04Attempts at my tying you down
17:09L'amour est l'enfant de la liberté
17:15Try please to understand
17:20L'amour est l'enfant de la liberté
17:27Love is the child of freedom
17:35But you kept insisting your rights of resisting
17:41Attempts at my tying you down

22:39There is a man who knows no bad
22:51He lives alone but never sad
23:00Now if you said to him this world lives in sin
23:08He would say I'm sorry you're wrong again
23:18He is a true gentle man
23:26He is a true gentle man
23:35Tall trees surround his proud domain
23:44A mountain stream livens up the plain
23:52A land development scheme inside
24:01What tools will this man use to fight?
24:11He is a true gentle man
24:19He is a true gentle man
24:27And now we settle in the town
24:49A colourless corporation house
24:57He bears no grudge on those who serve
25:07The interests of the populace
25:16He is a true gentle man
25:24He is a true gentle man
25:31He is a true gentle man
26:01He is a true gentle man
26:32I've just come down from the furrowed fields
26:37Yes I know I'm a country boy
26:40Everywhere I look in the city streets
26:44There's nothing there that gives me joy
26:48The flashiest car, the dearest suits, the cultured girls
26:52All make fools of logic in my mind
26:56With words and signs and flashing symbols
26:58Painted arrows and clocks that tower overhead
27:04What does it mean? What does it mean?
27:07What does it mean to you?
27:11What does it mean? What does it mean?
27:15Because it means nothing to me
27:29If I am what I think I know I am
27:33Then I know I'm a hungry man
27:37Starving in the stomach as the sun gets up
27:40In the morning then it goes to bed
27:44The flowers in the springtime fill the air
27:48Where the sweetness nothing can compare
27:52There's no signs and flashing symbols
27:55Painted arrows and clocks that tower overhead
28:00What does it mean? What does it mean?
28:03What does it mean to you?
28:07What does it mean? What does it mean?
28:11Because it means nothing to me
28:25What does it mean? What does it mean?
28:30What does it mean to you?
28:34What does it mean? What does it mean?
28:37Because it means nothing to me
28:54Because it means nothing to me
29:24Oh again today I find you are resting on my mind
29:39My hopelessness inside me turns my way
29:47If I only had a chance to show how much I loved you so
29:55I'd show you in every possible way
30:03If I had money to my name and goodbye most anything
30:13I'd give it all for a chance to show my love
30:21Was there to be my way I would welcome the dawn of day
30:29When I could have your affections for myself
30:38If I only had a chance to show my love in true romance
30:46But I fear there'll never be a day
30:54If I only had a chance to show my love in true romance
31:03But I fear there'll never be a day
31:34When you're fifteen miles away we still share the same fine day
31:48Though you may never have seen it like the same
31:57If I ever crossed your mind in a spare moment of your time
32:05That thought would beat one hundred hearts for me
32:14If I only had a chance to show my love in true romance
32:23But I fear there'll never be a day
32:31If I only had a chance to show my love in true romance
32:39But I fear there'll never be a day
32:54If I only had a chance
33:00If I only had a chance
33:04If I only had a chance
33:13One, two, three, four
33:44In your chair closer to the fireside
33:48And gaze into the firelight
33:52You can see the magic of this life we live
33:56If you've only got the mind to see
34:00Love is something special in our lives
34:04It belongs to you and me
34:08We can build a ship to sail away
34:12Or throw the timber in the sea
34:15We've got to learn to live together
34:20Sharing the love that we give every day
34:24Learn to give together
34:28There is no other way
34:30But down, down, down, down
34:39In order to preserve objectivity
34:45I should like you all to cast your minds
34:49Into the sea of faithful possibility
34:53In the hope that you might get a bite
34:57Love is something special in our lives
35:01It belongs to you and me
35:05We can build a ship to sail away
35:09Or throw the timber in the sea
35:12We've got to learn to live together
35:17Sharing the love that we give every day
35:21Learn to give together
35:25There is no other way
35:27But down, down, down, down
35:32We've got to learn to live together
35:38Sharing the love that we give every day
35:42Learn to give together
35:46There is no other way
35:48But down, down, down, down
35:52Down, down, down, down
36:02Learn to give together
36:05We've got to learn to live together
36:09We've got to learn to live together
