Lomax

More - more - I want more
I'm livin' just for lovin'
More - more
It's all that I want
It's all that I need
It's all that I want
It's all that I need

Give me more - more - I want more
I'm livin' just for lovin'
More - more
It's all that I want

I'm livin' just for lovin' now
Lips to kiss, a heart to miss a beat
I'm livin' just for lovin' now
It's all that I want
It's all that I need

Give me more - more - I want more
I'm livin' just for lovin'
More - more
It's all that I want
It's all that I need

I'm livin' just for lovin' now
Lips to kiss, a heart to miss a beat
I'm livin' just for lovin' now
It's all that I want
It's all that I need

More - more - I want more
I'm livin' just for lovin'
More - more
It's all that I want
It's all that I need

Where, oh where, can I find some peace of mind?
How can I pacify this soul of mine?
I have searched the city streets
Asked the help of all I meet
And I must admit that it's got me beat this time
This time

Where, oh where, can I find some peace of mind?
How can I pacify this soul of mine?
I have looked on mountains high
Tried to live in the countryside
I've been searching high and wide this time

Peace of mind don't come easy
Yes I have noticed that
Peace of mind don't come quickly
Yes this is a fact

Where, oh where, can I find some peace of mind?
How can I pacify this soul of mine?
I have searched for many years
Cracked a smile and shed a tear
Can I overcome my fear, this time?
This time, this time

Peace of mind don't come easy
Peace of mind don't come quickly

Where can you find some peace of mind?
Where can you find some peace of mind?

Words like poison arrows
Hurt me to the marrow
They say that lovers must quarrel sometimes
That's all we seem to do
Ask me the colour of this world of mine
I'd say it was blue

Nights of awkward silence
Living lives of pretence
They say that lovers must quarrel sometimes
That's all we seem to do
Ask me the colour of this world of mine
I'd say it was blue
Yeah
I'd say it was blue
I'm living in a blue world

Blue Monday's just another day
When every day's the same
I need a brighter way
Just a lighter shade of blue

Birds of different feather
Cannot live together
They that lovers must quarrel sometimes
That's all we seem to do
Ask me the colour of this world of mine
I'd say it was blue
I'd say it was blue
I'm living in a blue world

Put some rhythm in your blues
Gotta make a better man out of you
Put some rhythm in your blues
Wear a hole in the sole of your shoes

We all must learn to live with sadness
That's just the other side of happiness
And so I guess

Put some rhythm in your blues
Get some pleasure from your dues
Put some rhythm in your blues
Wear a hole in the sole of your shoes

We seem to spend our time with little things
The little things, the little things
Sometimes it's hard to deal with everything
And so I sing

No man should live for bread alone
You can't spend all your time
Wheeling and dealing on the telephone

Put some rhythm in your blues
Get some pleasure from those dues
Put some rhythm in your blues
Wear a hole in the sole of your shoes

Put some rhythm in your blues

. . .


My life is spent in strange places
Strangers with familiar faces
A perfect love affair that time erases
On the road to be free
My soul is a shadow and it seems to be
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me
I cannot follow

My eyes are filled with people's emptiness
Everyone is making fun of old fashioned happiness
Ain't much love around, there's only loneliness
On the road to be free
My soul is a shadow and it seems to be
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me
I cannot follow

My mind is anxious for the little things
And I just can't seem to reach that place where a free soul sings
Same old hang-ups, I got the same old hang-ups, yet still I cling
On the road to be free
My soul is a shadow and it seems to be
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me
Slipping away from me

And it's slipping away, it's slipping away
My soul is a shadow and it's slipping away from me
On the road to be free, it's slipping away
Slipping away from me'

. . .


Our love is much greater than any love affair since time began
It's so hard for me to understand something greater than myself
Is it my love? ' no no it's our love
Is it your love? ' no no it's our love
It's our love baby

Your kiss is a warm embrace
Brings me home instead of out someplace
You are my kind of special space after any place I go
It's not my love ' no no it's our love
And it's not your love ' no no it's our love
It's a combination baby

You are the island I return to from a sea of changes
You are the way when I am lost and all I see is strangers

You're the meaning keeps me going on
You are the rock my world is built upon
After all is said and done, you're the only one for me
It's not my love ' no no it's our love
And it's not your love ' no no it's our love
It's the two of us baby

It's a combination baby
It's not your love
It's not my love
It's the two of us
You are the meaning in my life
You are the way, you are the rock, you are the way

So hard to understand

. . .


Once there was music that used to warm my soul
I once had feelings you might never know
Hold on to your loved one
Too soon she'll be long gone
Hold on to your loved one
She's the only one

I once saw beauty in the most unpleasant things
Now I can't even see myself, how can I see anything else?
Hold on to your loved one
Too soon she'll be long gone
Hold on to your loved one
She's the only one
She's the only one
She's the only one

I once heard a story 'bout a man who had caught the blues
In his fight for fame and glory, he forgot what he had to lose
Hold on to your loved one
Too soon she'll be long gone
Hold on to your loved one
She's the only one
She's the only one
She's the only one

Lomax

It isn't only when we kiss
It isn't only when you smile
It isn't only times like this
It isn't only for a while

It isn't only love
It's more than this - higher above
It isn't only you
It is us

It isn't only when we talk
It isn't only when you laugh
Like a prisoner I'm caught
Within your world and I'm happy that
It isn't only love
That keeps us two together like we are
It isn't who we wish to be
It's who we are

It isn't only what you see
It isn't only what you feel
That keeps you close enough to me
That I could touch your heart quite easily
It isn't only love
It's more than this, higher above
It isn't only what we wanted, it's what we have

It isn't only love'

California if I could own ya
There'd be some changes made
Can't help but worry
When I see the state you're in

You got TVs and you got movies
Yeah but I am watching you
There's too many people
Living life like the movies do
In California

Well, I can't help but worry
What else can I do?
Well, I can't help but worry
When I see it's down to me and you

You got earthquake, make your house shake
But I've been shook, I've been shook before
I don't think it matters
So I'll just try to shake some more

You got redwoods and you got rivers
But you've got this automobile
You just can't help but worry
You can see how bad you feel
In California

And I can't help but worry
When I see the state you're in
I know one thing'
There's too many people
Living life like the movies do

. . .


II remember a time
When love was endless
And I wasn't restless
And you weren't so helpless

I remember a crime
That you took the blame for
And I can't find the name for
Nought to remain for

Memories will play upon your mind
Ah but this is not a game
Pretty soon you'll find
Just the memories remain

I remember a mood
That just wasn't so pensive
And warmth was intensified
By your eyes which tantalised

I remember

I remember
