Where you been lately? There's a new kid in town Everybody loves him don't they? (A-a-h...) And he's holding her And you're still around

Remember when you were young? You shone like the sun Shine on you crazy diamond! Now there's a look in your eyes Like black holes in the sky Shine on you crazy diamond!

Father wears his Sunday best Mother's tired, she needs a rest The kids are playing up downstairs Sister's sighing in her sleep Brother's got a date to keep He can't hang around Our house, in the middle of our street Our house, in the middle of our

Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time There go the street lights bringin' on the night Here come the men faces hidden from the light All through the shadows, ah, they come and they go With only one thing in common They got the fire down below

Doesn't have a point of view Knows not where he's going to Isn't he a bit like you and me? Nowhere man please listen You don't know what you're missing Nowhere man, the world is at your command

There was a gas strike, oil strike, lorry strike, bread strike Got to be a Superman to survive Gas bills, rent bills, tax bills, phone bills I'm such a wreck but I'm staying alive

Somewhere beyond the sea She's there watching for me If I could fly like birds on high Then straight to her arms I'd go sailing

But still they lead me back To the long winding road You left me standing here A long, long time ago Don't keep me waiting here Lead me to your door

You've got a smile so bright You know you could have been a candle I'm holding you so tight You know you could have been a handle The way you swept me off my feet You know you could have been a broom The way you smell so sweet You know you could have been some perfume Well, you could have been anything that you wanted to, and I can tell The way you do the things you do (The way you do the things you do) Oh, baby (The way you do the things you do)

Hey, baby, they're playin' our song, The one we used to hear when we used to get along, Hey, baby, they're playin' our song, Let's get back together, that's where we belong.

And it gets so dark in here I can't see through doubts and fears Walled in by expectation, I need a deviation Change in perspective, alternative view To help me see clearly, observe something new All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

I ain't got no time for lovin' 'Cause my time is all used up Just to sit around creatin' All that groovy kind of stuff But I'm a man, yes I am And I can't help But love you so

Staring blindly into space Getting up to splash my face Wanting just to stay awake Wondering how much I can take Should I try to do some more? Twenty five or six to four

We're living in a bad dream They've forgotten all about mankind But you were the only they backed up to the wall All those years ago Yeah, you were the one who imagined it all All those years ago

Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars Oak tree you're in my way There's too much coke and too much smoke Look what's going on inside you Ooooh that smell Can't you smell that smell Ooooh that smell The smell of death surrounds you

Precious and few are the moments we two can share Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair 'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share

I was eight years old And running with a dime in my hand To the bus stop to pick Up a paper for my old man I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick And steer as we drove through town He'd tousle my hair And say, "son, take a good look around" This is your hometown

Saw the fortune teller, had my fortune read She sent me to the doctor, who sent me straight to bed He said, I'm lonesome and I'm lovesick I've got my mind on lipstick Will you kiss away my cares and woe? I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know

Now it's been ten thousand years Man has cried a billion tears For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find

And we can build this dream together Standing strong forever Nothing's gonna stop us now And if this world runs out of lovers We'll still have each other Nothing's gonna stop us Nothing's gonna stop us now

Do you like good music That sweet soul music Just as long as it's swingin' Oh yeah, oh yeah Out here on the floor now We're going to a go go Ah dancin to the music Oh yeah, oh yeah

I don't know how to love him What to do, how to move him I've been changed, yes really changed In these past few days When I've seen myself I seem like someone else

Bring tea for the Tillerman Steak for the sun Wine for the woman who made the rain come Seagulls sing your hearts away 'Cause while the sinners sin, the children play

Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don't we?
