Heroes

I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing
Could drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day

Cause we can be heroes
Just for one day

I wish I could swim
Like the dolphins
The dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We can beat them
Forever and ever

Cause we can be heroes
Just for one day

We can be heroes
Just for one day
We can be heroes
Just for one day
We can be heroes
Just for one day
We can be heroes
Just for one day

We can be heroes
We can be heroes
Just for one day 

The times they are-a-changin'

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin', yeah

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'

For the times they are a-changin'
For the times they are a-changin' 

Get together

Love is but a song we sing
Fears' the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the dove is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
And try to love one another right now

Some may come and some may go
He will surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

If you hear the song I sing
You will understand, listen
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at your command

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

I said, come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Right now, right now 

Wildflowers

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free

Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free

Run away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and by

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away from your trouble and worry
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong somewhere you feel free 

Love is gonna come at last

There are times when it feels so hard just to carry on
There are times when the days all seem to be so long
Then this feeling inside of me sets me free from the past

And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last

Been alone in a crowded room, watched it all go on
I've had so many sleepless nights when I dreamed alone
Then a break in the clouds above feels like love shinin' down

And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around

I live for tomorrow, what it may bring
I live through the sorrow
Live in my dreams, in my dreams

This feeling inside of me sets me free from the past
And someday I'll find a way to make my dreams come true

'Cause I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last 

Flappie

It was Christmas morning, 1961
I recall the empty pen where my rabbit pet belonged
And my mother told me don’t go in the shed
And if I’d just behave then I’d get something yummy later on
She also didn’t know where Flappie was
And said she’s ask my dad who was busy in the shed
So I searched for Flappie for an hour or so
All around the lawn and garden and underneath my bed

But I was sure I locked my rabbit pen
Just like I did every night
And I checked three times just yesterday
When I felt something wasn’t right
And I stared at the pen just as if I knew what I know now

It was Christmas morning, 1961
Everybody searched for Flappie and my dad, daddy searched as well
By the trees and the water but never in the shed
Because he couldn’t be in there so I shook my head
We searched together then we took a break for coffee
Everybody drinking coffee but I didn’t have a drop
I thought of Flappie and how cold it was at Christmas
And then I started crying and I couldn’t make it stop

‘Cause I was sure I locked my rabbit pen
Just like I did every night
And I checked three times just yesterday
Because something didn’t seem right
And I stared at the pen as if I knew what I know now

It was the first day of Christmas, 1961
Everyone ate so loudly but I didn’t care
I could only think of Flappie, my dear little Flappie
And my appetite for food just wasn’t there
After the soup, the main course would arrive
And my father laughed and pointed, “Look, it’s Flappie in the pan!”
I still see the silver bowl and him lying in three pieces
And I realize my dad is such an evil man

I left the table screaming and stamping
And I cried on my bed for hours and hours
And I stood cursing loud at the top of the stairs
Yelling “Flappie wasn’t yours!”
I stared out the window with the empty rabbit pen on my mind

It was the second day of Christmas, 1961
Mom remembers when she woke, daddy was gone
And I told her not to go into the shed
And if she’d just behave she’d get something yummy later on 

Oh so sweet

A-one, two, three, four

It's so easy to live with no fear or deceit
But sometimes I think maybe I have skipped a beat
The road I chose was not all it should be
But sometimes it was, oh, so sweet

Sometimes I remember hearin' raindrops fall
Feelin' my love breathing alongside of me
It ain't easy to live with no tears of regret
But sometimes it was, oh, so sweet

There's a room in my soul where old hearts are at rest
The mention of which breeds only an empty nest
Go with the flow where society heeds
But sometimes it was, oh, so sweet

Healing in my dream world, ear close to the ground
I can hear the rumble of the things I love
It ain't easy to grieve over things said and done
But sometimes life was, oh, so sweet

Oh, the less we believe in, the less we belong
Let's all gather 'round so that we can carry on
Stick to the mainstream and we'll be okay
But sometimes it was, oh, so sweet

Sometimes I remember seeing starlight fade
Back when life was still only a mystery
Wasn't it good, wasn't it bad?
Or the best you ever had?
But sometimes it was, oh, so sweet 

Remembering

Go to the places that we used to go
I see all the faces on our favorite shows
A constant reminder of the way things were
Hard to picture, did it all occur?

I don't want to think about you anymore
I don't want to tell you that my heart is breaking
I'm not the kind who likes remembering

Walking together down Lakeshore Drive
Something about it kept us both alive
Wondering if you got home alright
Worrying 'bout you kept me up all night

I can't think about it anymore
I can't tell you that my heart is breaking
I'm not the kind who likes remembering

You're just a memory
(Remembering) I just can't live without you
(Remembering) It gets so heavy
(Remembering) I'm all alone

Something about the way it feels inside
Painting a picture that I just can't hide
Every morning it's the same old song
Knowing forever really takes too long

I can't think about it anymore
I can't tell you that my heart is breaking
I'm not the kind who likes remembering

You're just a memory
(Remembering) I just can't live without you
(Remembering) It gets so heavy
(Remembering) I'm all alone

And all through your life
It slipped through your hands
Without you to hold
The less I could stand
Remembering

Everytime I try to forget
You keep on pulling me back and yet
The same old thing keeps happening

You're just a memory
(Remembering) I just can't live without you
(Remembering) It gets so heavy
(Remembering) Remembering
(Remembering) You're just a memory
(Remembering) 

I knew you when

In the ancient middle fifties, the closin' sixties roar
I was caught up in your passion, I could only beg for more
And if I had a dollar bill I'd give it to you then
So I could tell the whole wide world, one day I knew you when

With your dangerous charisma, your thundering attack
You charged the very air I breathed and kept me coming back
You helped me through my darkest hours, you always were my friend
You gave me hope to carry on, because I knew you when

I knew you when the mountain tops were right beneath your feet
When artistry and freedom were complete
Before you were an icon, before they all, too, came
You could say I knew you when

We all sit here with our memories, of a glorious long ago
When our heroes seemed immortal, were they really so?
It's a question for a wiser man, I will not ask again
I will only say I'm grateful, for the time I knew you when

I knew you when (I knew you when), oh, I knew you when
I knew you when (I knew you when), yeah, I knew you when

I knew you when (I knew you when)
I knew you when (I knew you when), yeah, I knew you when 

Tuff enuff

I would walk ten miles on my hands and knees
Ain't no doubt about it, baby, it's you I aim to please
I'd wrestle with a lion and a grizzly bear
It's my life, baby, but I don't care

Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough

For you, baby, I would swim the sea
Nothing I'd do for you that's too tough for me
I'd put out a burning building with a shovel and dirt
And not even worry about getting hurt

Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough

I would work twenty-four hours, seven days a week
Just so I can come home and kiss your cheek
I'll love you in the morning and I'll love you at noon
I'll love you in the night and take you to the moon

Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough

I'd lay in a pile of burning money that I've earned
And not even worry about getting burned
I'd climb the Empire State, fight Muhammad Ali
Just to have you, baby, close to me

Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough
Ain't that tough enough 

Every time I roll the dice

She's got a roof that don't leak
When the rain's pouring down
She's got a place I can sleep
Where I'm save and sound
She's got a lock on her door
But she gave me a key
She don't walk the floor
Oh, but she worries about me

Her love has no strings, shackles or chains
But I'm holding on for dear life
She's like a rolling seven
Everytime I roll the dice

She's got a big Oldsmobile
She's got a dog that don't bite
She's got a heart I can steal
Just like a thief in the night
She's got a slow burning fire
She keeps her radio low
When she gets inspired
We let the good times roll

Her love has no strings, shackles or chains
But I'm holding on for dear life
She's like a rolling seven
Everytime I roll the dice

Her love has no strings, shackles or chains
But I'm holding on for dear life
She's like a rolling seven
Everytime I roll the dice

Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll the dice
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll the dice
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll the dice
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll
Everytime I roll the dice 

Some kind of wonderful

I don't need a whole lots of money
I don't need a big fine car
I got everything that a man could want
I got more than I could ask for
And I don't have to run around
I don't have to stay out all night
'Cause I got me a sweet, a sweet loving woman
And she know just how to treat me right

Oh, my baby, she's alright
Oh, my baby's clean out of sight
Don't you know that she's?
She's some kind of wonderful
She's some kind of wonderful
Yes, she is, she is
She's some kind of wonderful
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

When I hold her in my arms
You know she sets my soul on fire
Oh, when my baby kisses me
My heart becomes filled with desire
When she wraps her loving arms around me
It 'bout drives me out of my mind
Yeah, when my baby kisses me
Chills run up and down my spine

Oh, my baby, she's alright
Oh, my baby's clean out of sight
Don't you know that she is?
She's some kind of wonderful
She's some kind of wonderful
Yes, she is
She's some kind of wonderful
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now is there anybody
Got a sweet little woman like mine?
There's got to be somebody
Got a, got a sweet little woman like mine

Yeah, now can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Oh, can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
