Let there be love, so I can be loved by you
In Paradise Avenue
Let there be life, so everyone lives to love
Let it happen to me and you

I am a man, so take me for what I am
I'll never have everything, but let there be love
Let there be love, let there be love

I can be nothing, I can be something
I've got to give you my life
I'm tired of living without your giving
I've got to get you for my wife

Feeling's getting stronger
Can't hold on much longer
I never begged, but I'm begging now

Let there be love, so I can be loved by you
on Paradise Avenue, oh yo
Let there be life, so we can live to love
And let it be both of us

I am a man, so take me for what I am
I'll never have everything, but let there be love
Let there be love, let there be love

Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Eve never pleases me and Kitty can

When Kitty smiles, the world stands still
I see a thousand golden daffodils
But when she cries, the world just dies
I see a million tears in Kitty's eyes

Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Ah, ah, ah ah ah

Now Eve is bad and treats me cruel
She loves to see me looking like a fool
I find a way with words I say
To be in love in such a lonely way


Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Ah, ah, ah ah ah

Now they are two and I am one
I cannot fall in love with everyone
So I must choose between the two
Made up my mind, now I am choosing you

Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Eve never pleases me and Kitty can
Ah, ah, ah ah ah

In the summer of his years he would always smile;
He would laugh ev'ry day if he was here to stay.
For the summer of his years.

In the daylight of his dreams he would save his tears;
He would always hear when there was no one near
For the Summer of his years.

Ah,ah, ah, ah , ah,
Ah,ah,ah, ah, ah,
Ah,ah,ah, ah, ah,
Ah,ah,ah,ah, ah, ah,
For the Summer of his years,
For the Summer of his years,
Ah,ah.

All day, all night you feel as if the earth could fly. Three more all for fine Indian Gin and whiskey dry, Fine Indian Gin and whiskey dry.
Small town , closed down; There's nowhere else around to try. Disturbingly a voice would cry, "Go home, no loan, You'll have you gin and whiskey dry, You'll have your gin and whiskey dry".

Four ten, four men lining up for their handy brandy. All's gone, you're none, came the bartender's reply. But I've tried and I'm tied to Indian Gin and whiskey dry.
To Indian Gin and whiskey dry (repeat 4 times)

Hello there, Is there any air? Can you slow me down?
Can you believe that what you see could never ever be so real somehow.
Down to earth, my merry men.
There's some help needed here and you're there.
You can see if you stand on your chair.
That there's millions and millions and
millions and millions of people like

Hello there, Do you really care? Have you time to learn?
Could you believe that what you read
one thousand pages couldn't tell you why.
Down to earth, my merry men.
There's some help needed here and you're there.
You can see if you stand on your chair.
That there's millions and millions and
millions and millions of people like you .

That there's millions and millions and
millions and millions of people like you.

All that I hear doesn't feel right. Don't
call me 'till you're all right. I listened
and I heard but don't tell me. La de da.. Once in a
while he says good night. Will I care if
sometimes he is right? What a shame, it's
the same each day. La de da... Oh how I
tried! I just sat
and then I cried. Maybe I'm wrong
or will I find out when I'm gone? There is so much fun
in my leisure. Don't bother me, man, just stay there. If it's a sin, I'll
convert me astray. La de da... Come be home with me,
it's not a shame for you to
see Oh
let it be and you'll miss reality.

The preacher talked with me and he smiled
Said, Come and walk with me
Come and walk one more mile
Now for once in your life you're alone
But you ain't got a dime
There's no time for the phone

I've just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

I told him I'm in no hurry
But if I broke her heart
Then won't you tell her I'm sorry
And for once in my life I'm alone
And I've gotta let her know
just in time before I go

I've just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

Well I laughed but that didn't work
And it's only her love
That keeps me wearing this dirt
Now I'm crying but deep down inside
Well I did it to him
Now it's my turn to die

I've just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

I've just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

I been thinking sitting on a pole.
I'm getting sick of doing what I'm told.
Just me and the mirror and my brain.
But that was when I got an idea.
Came like a gun and shot in my ear.
Don't you think it's time you got up and stood alone?

Fifteen years I lay down on the ground.
I couldn't feel any noise or hear any sound.
Fifteen million years I spent down the line.
But that was when I got an idea.
Came like a gun and shot in my ear.
Don't you think it's time you got up and stood alone?
Get up and stand alone

music

That was when I got an idea.
Came like a gun and shot in my ear.
Don't you think it's time you got up and stood alone?
Get up and stand alone.

That's when I got an idea (repeat and fade out)

I wander lonely as a cloud
I keep my head above the crowd
Ain't nobody else as big as me
But I must remember friends
What has to start just has to end
Everybody's got a destiny

And I know when the swallows flies
Yes I know, and the earth just dies
Then I'll be told what I am
The swallow and me

I'll look after number one
I'll forget the beggar's son
Everybody's got to stay alive
I'll keep a-walking amongst the clouds
I'll keep my head above the crowd
I'll watch them live, I'll watch them die

And I know when the swallows flies
Yes I know, and the earth just dies
Then I'll be told what I am
The swallow and me

And I know when the swallows flies
Yes I know, and the earth just dies
Yes I know when the swallow flies
Yes I know, and the earth just dies

I started a joke
Which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see
That the joke was on me, oh no

I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh, if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me

I looked at the skies
Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed
Hurting my head from things that I said

'Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me

I looked at the skies
Running my hands
Over my eyes
And I fell out of bed
Hurting my head from things that I said

'Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
Oh no! that the joke was on me
Oh...

. . .


I am a bird; watch me go drifting by.
With my feathers of power I laugh as the hours go slowly by.
That could mean ev'rything.
I am a street watching the people walk.
As I listen their conversations glisten as they start to talk.
Then I hear ev'rything.

Little white jug, me and Kilburn Towers,
as we sit on the hill and we drink and we swill
till the early hours,
Then I am ev'rything.
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers

(music)
That could mean ev'rything.

Little white jug, me and Kilburn Towers,
as we sit on the hill and we drink and we swill
till the early hours,
Then I am ev'rything

Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers(repeat 4 times)

This is my swan song.
Whatever I do now, I do it well.
This is my swan song.
I fell in love with you I love you well.
And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my last chance,
a chance to show the world that I am strong.
This is my last dance.
I'm walking off the floor where I belong.
And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.


(music) La.....

And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my swan song.
I fell in love with you ,
I love you well,
I love you well,
I love you well
