Just Like You
(ferry)
Buttercup daisies
And most anything
They wither and fade
After blossom in spring
Time conquers innocence
Pride takes a fall
In knowledge lies wisdom
Thats all
Everything changes
Weather blows hot or cold
Through alchemy iron turns gold
Quicksilver baby
So hard to pin down
Oh when are you coming around?
Hopelessly grounded
I walk through the streets
Remembering how we spent time
Hopefully yearning that someday well meet
But when will we, how could we - why? oh my!

Virginia Plain
(ferry)
Make me a deal and make it straight
All signed and sealed, ill take it
To robert e. lee ill show it
I hope and pray he dont blow it cause
Weve been around a long time just try try try tryin to
Make the big time...
Take me on a roller coaster
Take me for an airplane ride
Take me for a six days wonder but dont you
Dont you throw my pride aside besides
Whats real and make believe
Baby janes in acapulco we are flyin down to rio
Throw me a line im sinking fast
Clutching at straws cant make it
Havana sound were trying hard edge the hipster jiving
Last picture shows down the drive-in
Youre so sheer youre so chic
Teenage rebel of the week
Flavours of the mountain steamline

Could It Happen To Me?
(ferry)
Do you know what it means to me
To delight in your company
Could it happen to me
Do you know what im certain of?
I would love to fall in love
Could it happened to me?
Hey wont you look at me
Now Im cracked wide open I cant conceal
My all-over trembling, Im acting strange
And while youre out of reach, I never change
God knows Im beside myself
If a tears a crime, then I must confess
My guilty secret, Im not ashamed
Take me as I am, an average man
Oh boy is it getting rough
When my old world charm isnt quite enough
Id throw you cantos, Id jazz em up
When I lay me down, you dont pick up
Whats more, its a crying shame

Strictly Confidential
(ferry)
Before I die ill write this letter
Here are the secrets you must know
Until the cloak of evening shadow
Changes to mantle of the dawn
Will it be sunny then I wonder?
Rolling and turning
How can I sleep?
Hold on till morning
What if I fall?
Over the hills and down the valleys
Soaring aloft and far below
Lying on stony ground the fragments
Truth is the seed we tried to sow
Marking the time spent on our journey
There isnt much we have to show
Counting the cost in money only
Strikes me as funny dont you know?
Tongue tied the thread of conversation
Weighing the words one tries to use

Editions Of You
(ferry)
Well im here looking through an old picture frame
Just waiting for the perfect view
I hope something special will step in to my life
Another fine edition of you
A pin-up done in shades of blue
Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life
The country air and all its joys
But badgers couldnt compensate at twice the price
For just another night with the boys oh yeah
And boys will be boys, will be boys
They say loves a gamble, hard to win, easy lose
And while sun shines youd better make hay
So if life is your table and fate is the wheel
Then let the chips fall where they may
In modern times the modern way
And as I was drifting past the lorelei
I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo
So look out sailor when you hear them croon
Youll never been the same again oh no

Psalm
(ferry)
Try on your love
Like a new dress
The fit and the cut
Your friends to impress
Try on your smile -
Square on your face
Showing affection
Should be no disgrace
Try out your god
Hope he will send
Kindness from strangers
On whom you depend
Try on his coat
A mantle most fine
Myriad colours
His harmony-thine
Believe in me
Once seemed a good line
Now belief in jesus

A Really Good Time
(ferry)
Youre heard enough
Of the blues and stuff
Youre pretty swell now
cause youre pretty tough
But I dont have to tell you
How hard it can be to get by
You never bothered
About anyone else
Youre well educated
With no common sense
But love - thats one thing
You really need to get by
All your troubles
Come from yourself
Nobody hurts you
- they dont care
Just as long as you show them
A really good time
All the things

Street Life
(ferry)
Wish everybody would leave me alone -yeah
Theyre always calling on my telephone
When I pick it up theres no one there
So I walk outside just to take the air
Come on with me cruising down the street
Who knows what youll see, who you might meet
This brave new worlds not like yesterday -
It can take you higher than the milky way
Now i´m blinded I cant really see - yeah
No more bright lights confusing me - no
Dont ask me why im feeling blue
cause loving you is all I can do
Hey good-looking boys - gather around
The sidewalk papers gutter-press you down
All those lies can be so unkind,
They can make you feel like youre losing your mind
Street life
Street life
Street life

If There Is Something
(ferry)
If there is something that I might find
Look around corners
Try to find peace of mind I say
Where would you go if you were me
Try to keep a straight course not easy
Somebody special looking at me
A certain reaction we find
What should it try to be I mean
If there are many
Meaning the same
Be specific just a game
I would do anything for you
I would climb mountains
I would swim all the oceans blue
I would walk a thousand miles
Reveal my secrets
More than enough for me to share
I would put roses round our door
Sit in the garden

Can't Let Go
Well I rush out blazin'
My pulse is racin'
As the rain streams down my face
There's no turning back now
To fight with fate
Outnumbered, out of place
They said go west young man, that's best
It's there you'll feel no pain
Bel-Air's okay if you dig the grave
But I want to live again
Can't let go
There's a madness in my soul tonight
Can't let go
Must ride like the storm
Can't let go
Will I run out of control tonight
Can't let go
Until every trace is gone
It's a winding road from Cuesta way
Down sunset to the beach
