Room for Squares
Color Queen
I remember when we walked together
Clouds looked like mountains in the sky
And I smelled that sweet cherry rain
We were never to say goodbye
Stood by the frozen lake
You pointed Venus in the sky
Oh I wish I could go with you
But you said it’s not my time
Oh she was a gypsy
Lying on my mind
Oh she was a gypsy
Floats around from time to time
She shows me places I’ve never been
She don’t worry about a thing
She’s my color queen
Oh we were dancing
Your head on my shoulder I felt the beauty of your ways
And I made you promises of all my living days
And it was you and you were there with me
Just as simple as the trees
And you said when morning came
You’d still be here with me
Oh she was a gypsy
Lying on my mind
Oh she was a gypsy
Floats around from time to time
She shows me places I’ve never been
She don’t worry about a thing
She’s my color queen
Oh she was a gypsy
Lying on my mind
Oh she was a gypsy
Floats around from time to time
She shows me places I’ve never been
She don’t worry about a thing
She’s my color queen
Sky Blues
Under violent skies we lay
Wait for the storm to pass
We’re making love in our own way
As we both watched the lightning crash
Can't stand this weather falling all around my head
But I will see this through
I couldn't get no closer
But you know I’d love to try for I am into you
Ohhhh, these cloudy skies they change my view
And everything comes back to you
Our lives will never have to wait
Just you and I this great escape
The moon will turn these tides away
And we will have our freedom soon
I could say I love you but the scenery is speaking up for me
I know I said, I know I said I’d bend the rules
I am the earth, I am the ground, I am the king now
Ohhhh, these cloudy skies they change my view
And everything comes back to you
Our lives will never have to wait
Just you and I this great escape
Are you thinking while I’m dreaming
Got to get you out
We’ll be back someday
Oooh I gotta gotta.. ooooh, yeah.
Ohhhh, these cloudy skies they change my view
And everything comes back to you
Our lives will never have to wait
Just you and I this great escape
Ohhhh, these cloudy skies they change my view
And everything comes back to you
Our lives will never have to wait
Just you and I this great escape
I was alone
Oh but you were holding me
We fell in the deep blue sea
We found our way home
This is the way
Happiness was meant to be
This became our destiny
these are my sky blues
I am the waves..
the waves..
Take it to the sun
I’ll be your Neptune champion…Places
You can put me anywhere
but I’ll still feel the same
Overnight in an alleyway
But shield me from the rain
No clocks to live by, my body's but my own
And I go when I want to
But I still am not alone
Oh now the weight is on these shoulders
Now these streets are holy land
I’m not growing any older
I’m still doing all I can
All these places I have seen
I have everything I need
Spinning backwards in a dream
All these places, oh yeah
City breathes while I’m sleeping
And I start to fade away
And I cry when I’m dreaming
Cause I hear you call my name
My body's dying, my soul is still alive
All that keeps me living is a chance to satisfy
Oh now the weight is on these shoulders
Now these streets are holy land
I’m not growing any older
I’m still doing all I can
All these places I have seen
I have everything I need
Spinning backwards in a dream
All these places, oh yeah
this makes me freeLive On
Closed doors open
Lines are broken
I’ve been thinking
Feels like sinking
Daydream with me
Thoughts you give me
I was lonely
Now you’ve shown me
I live on and I will always be
Part of this storybook you write
I live on and if our paths should never cross again
We’ll all be here tonight
I was roaming
You stayed waiting
Past lives calling
Slowly fading
I live on and I will always be
Part of this storybook you write
I live on and if our paths should never cross again
We’ll all be here tonight
It never meant that much to me
when I could leave so easily
You made it hard for me to stay
That I don't care and run away
I will return with lessons learned
I will be the one to stay
I live on and I will always be
Part of this storybook you write
I live on and if our paths should never cross again
We’ll all be here tonight
I live on and I will always be
Part of this storybook you write
I live on and if our paths should never cross again
We’ll all be here tonight
Saturday Morning Feel
Three years and change we've been together
Don't think I've ever felt this way
Woke up side by side one weekend morning
to the sweet sweet sound of the warm pourin' rain
she looked at me and I looked at the ceiling
she turned and kissed me on the cheek
and I got a real good feeling
don't go let's waste the day away
our options are open
we'll have it all if you just stay
if you just stay
it's a saturday morning feel
that brings me close to you
it's a saturday morning feel
that keeps me living on
it's a saturday morning feel
to know that i can do anything that comes to mind
let's get down and swim this sea of blankets
and let the radio play in the other room
I'd just love to paint a picture
of the way you look right now
but i just dont have the colors to throw my soul around
i know you've got somewhere to be
oh the same thing with me
but i cant leave that easily, that easily..
it's a saturday morning feel
that brings me close to you
it's a saturday morning feel
that keeps me living on
it's a saturday morning feel
to know that i can do anything that comes to mind
and i can see that i have seen her at her best
tending him when her guard is down
to think I thought about laying this to rest
we make mistakes sometimes
i guess i have mine
it's a saturday morning feel
that brings me close to you
it's a saturday morning feel
that keeps me living on
it's a saturday morning feel
to know that i can do anything that comes to mind
Untouchable
say hello today
say goodbye tomorrow
say you'll stay today
then you're gone tomorrow
i always thought that you
had better things to do than speak to me
i had to buy your time
spend all night to try and solve your mystery
was that smile for me
or did i misunderstand you
was that smile for him
are you playing tricks again
Chous: and it turns out, whoa..
turns out, whoa.. turns out, whoa..
you're not untouchable
and i am one of few to ever get to you
i dont care where you came from
i dont know where you been
but i know that you're not like me
that's not so hard to understand
so maybe you are
so what if i am
may not be a star but i still do all I can
and it turns out, whoa..
turns out, whoa.. turns out, whoa..
you're not untouchable
and i am one of few to ever get to you
and now i finally realize
your image is a soul
and it's not very interesting
once pretense gets too old
too old
and it turns out, whoa..
turns out, whoa.. turns out, whoa..
you're not untouchable
and i am one of few to ever get to youLonely Day
Saw you kissing him through my window
kind of makes me wonder bout myself
never thought a smile could make me wonder
never thought a look could bring me down
and once my time arrives
i'll open up my eyes
but time don't move like I want it to
so i'll sit and wait for fate i hope it looks like you
this is lonely day
nothing comes my way
everybody seems to push in my face
i dont understand
guess I'm still a man
but who can i prove it to?
so i was just sitting there to the music
well that's all there is these days
but every record ends sometimes
and i'm sitting here in the same old place
and everybody knows
and everybody knows too much
and everybody feels
like everybody's out for blood
this is lonely day
nothing comes my way
everybody seems to push in my face
i dont understand
guess I'm still a man
but who can i prove it to?
play the cover up
walk away sometimes
never leave a trace
of what's on your mind
go to sleep alone
in your happy home with nobody in it
whoaaaaaa. whoaaaaaa. whoaaaaaa.
this is lonely day
nothing comes my way

Tribute
The sky bows it's head
The weather has let us down
We salute you with the rain
We are underneath your clouds
And if it can’t touch you
Lord you can't be reached
Our minds are in the ocean
Our hearts are in your reach
Fly, fly on, my friends
Fly on, my friends
Fly on, again, fly on
So chip away at this broken wall
because we all come falling down sometimes
Say what’s on your mind
For how much time can be spent talking to ourselves
Holding out my hand
Wont take regrets if nothing’s left to take away
I’m wandering away
and holding back the tears
I'm there if you need me
Fly, fly on, my friends
Fly on, my friends
Fly on, again, fly on
and in the morning the sun will shine
in a different direction
all the colors of the summer will bleed into one
so find your sunshine fast
to break away these cloudy skies
and hold it close to you
because it fades..
Fly, fly on, my friends
Fly on, my friends
Fly on, again, fly on
You know I wanna lift you up
You know I wanna lift you up
Won’t you let me lift you up
Won’t you, won’t you let me lift you up
