03:23I'll meet you on the 540 subway in the sky
03:28I'll bring my calico spices I'll bring my words for my tune
03:33Stir my dream in the evening with a silver spoon

04:07Keep in mind we're gonna only hear it one time through
04:12Soon the dance will be over We'll be going ashore

07:53Watch the sleep right up your eyes, it's getting late
08:23And the harvest time is near, and it won't wait
08:34So the low of forty and the fences fall down
08:43Sheep are getting restless and the shepherd can't be found
08:52There's a storm cloud over yonder, made in the USA
09:01Keep your passport in your hand, till they get away
09:10Watch the sleep right up your eyes, it's getting late
09:19And the harvest time is near, and it won't wait
09:30So the low of forty and the fences fall down
09:39Sheep are getting restless and the shepherd can't be found
09:48There's a storm cloud over yonder, made in the USA
09:57Keep your passport in your hand, till they get away
10:18I'm a forest stranger, spend my time out in the woods
10:45Where all is green
10:50Come and climb my watchtower, take a look at all the things you've never seen
11:00You'll be more than welcome when you call, but I don't expect you till the fall
11:11Less by chance you see the words that time is writing on the wall, on the wall
11:30I'm a highland farmer, since the new day I've been working in the sun
11:41The countryside's forgiving, everything for a living life, until it's done
11:51Not too many people pass my way, those who do, don't have the time to stay
12:03But I've saved a place for you in case you find you need a friendly home someday
12:12If you need a home someday
12:32Not too many people pass my way, those who do, don't have the time to stay
12:49But I've saved a place for you in case you find you need a friendly home someday
12:57You may need a home someday
13:28Jim and I, Gypsy, I have known you before
13:33Your face has changed a little, but you still smile the same way when your eyes close
13:44You are older now, and I am older too
13:49You smile the same way when your eyes close
13:55You are older now, show me how you dance around the campfire
14:02I see your life reflected in your eyes
14:08Thieves and fortune tellers dream of having you
14:13They love you for what you are
14:18You love them for what you want to be
14:24Jim and I, Gypsy
14:36Jim and I, Gypsy, are you bad or are you good?
14:41I never meant to judge you, I just meant to be your friend long as I could
14:51Girl, I know you try to hitch your wagon to a star and take a ride
14:58Still your smiling face is good to see
15:03I'm feeling kinda lonely, won't you dance for me?
15:08I love you for what you are
15:13You love me for what you want to be
15:19Jim and I, Gypsy
15:25Oh, Gypsy
15:39You are older now, show me how you dance around the campfire
15:46I see your life reflected in your eyes
15:51Thieves and fortune tellers dream of having you
15:57I love you for what you are
16:02You love them for what you want to be
16:06Jim and I, Gypsy
16:11Oh, Gypsy
16:16Jim and I, Gypsy
16:21Oh, Gypsy
16:36Jim and I, Gypsy
17:00Deaf dumb and blind, why do you look for a sign?
17:04Won't you listen to the song that he's sung us?
17:09Touch young and behold and bring back to the fold
17:15Can't you see that there's a prophet among us?
17:19He can look in your eyes and see behind your disguise
17:25He's a high priest who's keeping his promise
17:29He's a hero and friend and magic medicine man
17:35Can't you see that there's a prophet among us?
17:40Oh, he spent his time out in the wilderness
17:45Met the devil in L.A.
17:50Fantasy is fierce, wisdom of two thousand years
17:55My twin light points the way
18:00Deaf dumb and blind, why do you look for a sign?
18:05Won't you listen to the song that he's sung us?
18:09Touch young and behold and bring back to the fold
18:15Can't you see that there's a prophet among us?
18:26Watch out!
18:37Oh, he spent his time out in the wilderness
18:44Met the devil in L.A.
18:49Fantasy is fierce, wisdom of two thousand years

19:23Wow!
19:53Who's the captain of your ship of dreams?
20:04Have you found a star to guide you?
20:10In the dark or light or in between?
20:16Have you found a creed to hide you?
20:22Is there room behind your temple walls
20:29To take the passing stranger in?
20:35Do you clothe your priest in robes of gold
20:41Just to carry all your sin?
20:46Who's the captain of your ship of dreams?
20:59Who's the captain of your ship of dreams?

26:36Memories are sunlight

28:04and some are damned
28:09
28:13Some say the line shall
28:17lay down by the lamb
28:22
28:26If you're still wondering

33:25
33:34
33:49Seems I see a promise shining
33:52but my vision must be tried
33:55for that ancient winged serpent
33:58lies in wait to taste my hide
34:01and I know if I dare not wake him
34:04I would quickly overpower
34:07for no sword has ever hurt him
34:11friends of mine he has devoured
34:14nor will clever words persuade him
34:17he's the master of that game
34:20so while tiptoe past the dragon
34:24I suggest you do the same
34:27you do the same
34:31do the same
34:33
