Then as it was, then again it will be An' though the course may change sometimes Rivers always reach the sea Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go
Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be
Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good 'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would
Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul
Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be Oh darlin', oh darlin'
I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave Holdin' on, ten years gone Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on. Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on. My home may be out on the highway, Lord, I've done so much wrong But please, give me strength to carry on.

Called to Madonna To give me a line She said boy what have you done Passing your time with a holy man Talking about the moon and sun But I can't tell the difference Between the fool and wise Show me a river to follow Away from all these lies
I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me your hand I've been picking up my bones too long Won't you understand
Called to the captain To put me ashore For it looked like no man's land Is this the way to follow I cried as I shook his hand He told me had no answer He didn't really hold the key I am a simple man Was all he said to me
I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me a hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand I've been on the road so long Won't you lend me your hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand
Heard my mother crying She was calling out my name Whisper in the dark night Saying who's to blame The hour glass keeps turning With not enought sand to see I am a holy man So don't you bother me
I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me your hand I've been pickin' up my bones too long Won't you understand I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me your hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand?
You're sweeter than the morning When the sun is shining down on me There is nothing you can say That could make me go away you see But you keep saying to me baby
Hold on--I feel I'm getting ready Hold on--I feel I'm rockin' steady Hold on--I'm gonna make it with you woman Hold on--You got to gimme some love, gimme some love
I held back before But your love took me easily You got the power I knew was gonna creep up on me The more I give Your love keeps comin' on strong Although it's mine now I know it won't be for long There's something in the saying That a woman needs a little more time I'm getting tired of waiting for you Giving me some kind of sign
Hold on--I've got to love you when I want to Hold on--You've got to love me when I want you to Hold on--I ain't gonna let you leave me baby Hold on--No never no more
I know the game you're playing And I guess you think I'm easily led You think the words you're saying Are really going through my head I'm gonna take you home And give you all I can I'll prove to you, baby That really I'm a man
Hold on--I know I'm feeling ready Hold on--I know I'm rockin' steady Hold on--Guess I've made it with you woman Hold on--I've got you giving me love
Something that you give me Keeps me hangin' on No use me stayin' There's nothing to be done I'm gonna take you home And give you all I can I'll prove to you woman That really I'm a man
Hold on--I only want to take you higher Hold on--You are the root of my desire Hold on--C'mon baby light my fire
Have you ever thought of the feeling I get when I'm alone with you It's causing me worry and trouble I'm going 'round in circles Don't know what I'm gonna do
You can't do it right With the one you love Nothing you can do Without the one you love
You were always playing my records When I was after making some love But I need more than the music To keep myself together Although it makes me feel so good
You can't do it right With the one you love Nothing you can do Without the one you love
Sometimes in the morning I wake up without you Can't get up, it's getting me down Tell me what you're trying to do Later in the evening You come home feeling low If you'd stop your cruising Maybe we could make a show
You can't do it right With the one you love Nothing you can do Without the one you love
Tell me gypsy can you see me In your crystal ball I'm asking you what can I do My back's against the wall And I can't hold on much longer So I've come to you my friend For now my life seems at an end
I came to see you once before One hundred years ago You took my hand and broke the spell That should have let me go But my years have gone so slowly So I'm here again my friend For now my life is at an end
