Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers - Runnin' Down A Dream

Now we have Tom Petty (And The Heartbreakers). Tom Petty has been here before with My Back Pages (with some others music man's). But now we have Runnin' Down A Dream, good song! This was released in 1989.

It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

I had the radio on, I was drivin'

Trees went by, me and Del were singin'

Little Runaway

I was flyin'

Yeah, runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

I felt so good, like anything was possible

Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes

The last three days the rain was unstoppable

It was always cold, no sunshine

Yeah, runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

I rolled on, the sky grew dark

I put the pedal down to make some time

There's something good waitin' down this road

I'm pickin' up whatever's mine

I'm runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

Yeah, I'm runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

I'm runnin' down a dream

Leonard Cohen - Dance Me to the End of Love

It's Leonard Cohen time; Dance Me to the End of Love. Good song! Song was released in 1984, year that I was born.

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin

Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in

Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Oh, let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone

Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon

Show me slowly what I only know the limits of

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on

Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long

We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born

Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn

Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin

Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in

Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Remember those walls I built?

Well, baby, they're tumblin' down

And they didn't even put up a fight

They didn't even make a sound

I found a way to let you in

But I never really had a doubt

Standin' in the light of your halo

I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened

Every rule I had you breakin'

It's the risk that I'm takin'

I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm lookin' now

I'm surrounded by your embrace

Baby, I can see your halo

You know you're my savin' grace

You're everything I need and more

It's written all over your face

Baby, I can feel your halo

Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo

Halo

Hit me like a ray of sun

Burnin' through my darkest night

You're the only one that I want

Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again

But this don't even feel like fallin'

Gravity can't begin

To pull me back to the ground again

It's like I've been awakened

Every rule I had you breakin'

The risk that I'm takin'

I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm lookin' now

I'm surrounded by your embrace

Baby, I can feel your halo

Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo

Halo

Halo

Ooh

Everywhere I'm lookin' now

I'm surrounded by your embrace

Baby, I can see your halo

You know you're my savin' grace

You're everything I need and more

It's written all over your face

Baby, I can feel your halo

Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo

Halo, oh oh

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo, halo

I can feel your halo, halo, halo

I can see your halo, halo

Halo

My Back Pages

Well, now we have many classic singers/songwriters, all in a punch! Me likes, me likes very much. Let's see, we have - ofcourse Neil Young, then Bob Dylan, Roger McGuinn, Tom Petty, Eric Clapton & George Harrison. Awesome set! This was performed in 1992.

Crimson flames tied through my ears

Rollin' high and mighty traps

Pounced with fire on flaming roads

Using ideas as my maps

"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I

Proud 'neath heated brow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

Half-cracked prejudice leaped forth

"Rip down all hate," I screamed

Lies that life is black and white

Spoke from my skull, I dreamed

Romantic facts of musketeers

Foundationed deep, somehow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

Girls' faces formed the forward path

From phony jealousy

To memorizing politics

Of ancient history

Flung down by corpse evangelists

Unthought of, thought, somehow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

A self-ordained professor's tongue

Too serious to fool

Spouted out that liberty

Is just equality in school

"Equality," I spoke the word

As if a wedding vow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand

At the mongrel dogs who teach

Fearing not that I'd become my enemy

In the instant that I preach

My existence led by confusion boats

Mutiny from stern to bow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats

Too noble to neglect

Deceived me into thinking

I had something to protect

Good and bad, I define these terms

Quite clear, no doubt, somehow

Ah, but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now.

Pink Floyd - Mother

This time we have Pink Floyd, it was released in 1979.

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb

Mother do you think they'll like the song

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls

Ooooh aah, Mother should I build a wall

Mother should I run for president

Mother should I trust the government

Mother will they put me in the firing line

Ooooh aah, is it just a waste of time

Hush now baby don't you cry

Mama's gonna make all of your

Nightmares come true

Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you

Mama's gonna keep you right here

Under her wing

She won't let you fly but she might let you sing

Mama will keep baby cosy and warm

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall

Mother do think she's good enough for me

Mother do think she's dangerous to me

Mother will she tear your little boy apart

Oooh aah, mother will she break my heart

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry

Mama's gonna check out all your girl friends for you

Mama won't let anyone dirty get through

Mama's gonna wait up till you come in

Mama will always find out where

You've been

Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

You'll always be a baby to me

Mother, did it need to be so high.

Mike + The Mechanics - The Living Years

Mike + The Mechanics presents today's awesome song. You gotta love this! This was released in 1988.

Every generation

Blames the one before

And all of their frustrations

Come beating on your door

I know that I'm a prisoner

To all my Father held so dear

I know that I'm a hostage

To all his hopes and fears

I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Oh, crumpled bits of paper

Filled with imperfect thought

Stilted conversations

I'm afraid that's all we've got

You say you just don't see it

He says it's perfect sense

You just can't get agreement

In this present tense

We all talk a different language

Talking in defence

Say it loud (say it loud), say it clear (oh say it clear)

You can listen as well as you hear

It's too late (it's too late) when we die (oh when we die)

To admit we don't see eye to eye

So we open up a quarrel

Between the present and the past

We only sacrifice the future

It's the bitterness that lasts

So don't yield to the fortunes

You sometimes see as fate

It may have a new perspective

On a different day

And if you don't give up, and don't give in

You may just be okay

So say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear)

You can listen as well as you hear

Because it's too late, it's too late (it's too late)

When we die (oh, when we die)

To admit we don't see eye to eye

I wasn't there that morning

When my Father passed away

I didn't get to tell him

All the things I had to say

I think I caught his spirit

Later that same year

I'm sure I heard his echo

In my baby's new born tears

I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear)

You can listen as well as you hear

It's too late (it's too late) when we die (it's too late when we die)

To admit we don't see eye to eye

So say it, say it, say it loud (say it loud)

Say it clear (come on say it clear)

Say it loud

(Don't give up, don't give in and don't look away 'til it's too late)

Say it clear

Say it loud (say it loud, say it loud)

Smokie - Lay Back in the Arms of Someone

Here we go again... This time Smokie, who's awesome song in lay back in the arms of someone. This was released in 1977.

If you want my sympathy

Just open your heart to me

And you'll get whatever you'll ever need

You think that's too high for you

Oh baby, I would die for you

When there's nothing left

You know where I'll be

Lay back in the arms of someone

Give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

So baby just call on me

When you want all of me

I'll be your lover

I'll be your friend

And there's nothing I won't do

'Cause baby I just live for you

With nothing to hide

No need to pretend

Oh

Lay back in the arms of someone

You give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Baby

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

Oh I know you think that's too high for you

Oh baby I would die for you

When there's nothing left

I'll be with you

Oh

Lay back in the arms of someone

You give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Baby

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

Oh yeah
