BLUE
RAY SPRINGWATER

This is another day
Another day for thee
This is another day
The day that ended we

This is another day
The miracle did not last
This is another day
We’re thrown back in the past

This is another day
A day that wil remain
This is a different day
The day you’re freed from pain

This is another day
The day we said goodbye
This is another day
The day my sister cried

Your brother can loose you
But you can't loose your brother
And that's what we
The living and loving
Call Brotherhood

Your sister can leave you
But you can't leave your sister
And we can do no good
Unless we strive for Brotherhood.
Brotherhood

You can keep on living
To be the last man
But you will carry the weight
Of sorrow and blues
And the last traces
of Brotherhood
Brotherhood
Brotherhood
Brotherhood

I sense a shiver in the night
And all my friends are sleeping
I'm awake and pray the light
To stop my soul from aching
This is a sign of longing
So please sent me a woman
I need a woman to comfort me

This night is filled with needles
Where ever I turn my face
I see and feel the pain
And doubt if the daylight shall return
This is my fear of darkness
So please sent me a woman
I need a woman to comfort me

I've got no famous last words
I'm tired and need some sleep
While holding your hand
I know I'm on my way
And long for company
So please sent me a woman
I need a woman to comfort me

We don't need no countries
We just need some land
To harvest and live our lives
We don't need no countries
We just need some land
To harvest and live our lives

I long for a neighbour
I pray for a friend
I need all the help I can get
If you call for a neighbour
Or need a strong man
I give all the help I can give

We don't need religion
We just need a hand
To reach out and keep us from falling
We don't need religion
We just need a hand
To reach out and keep us from falling

I long for a neighbour
I pray for a friend
I need all the help I can get
If you call for a neighbour
Or need a strong man
I give all the help I can give

We don't need no money
Let's come up with a plan
To focus and give us meaning
We don't need no money
Let's come up with a plan
To focus and provide meaning

Our faces are mirrors
We drown in our eyes
We are all the help we can get
Our faces are mirrors
We drown in our eyes
We are all the help we can get
We are all the help we can give

I’ve found my joy, I’ve found my tears
And that’s all I needed.
I wrote some songs and sang some others
And that’s all I needed.
I worked a job to earn a living
And that’s all I needed

I took part in life
No mercy, no mercy
And life took all of me
No mercy, no mercy
No mercy for you, no mercy for me
Ooh, my beloved friends
The carnival is over.
The carnival is over

I’ve seen enemies and friends
They ate my time and drank my wine
And that’s all I needed
I had some parties in my life
There are still pictures of those days
And that’s all I needed
There is a small gap in the world
Where the sun disappears
And that is all I needed.

I took part in life
No mercy, no mercy
And life took all of me
No mercy, no mercy
No mercy for you, no mercy for me
Ooh, my beloved friends
The carnival is over
The carnival is over

Dear friends remember me
Like I remember you

We are lost in the mountains
We are lost in the valleys
We are lost between trees
But there is always a you
And there is always a me

We are lost in the desert
We are lost in the snow
We are lost in the sky
But there is always a you
And there is always a me

Let's talk about us, let's talk about us
Is it me who wants you
Is it you who wants me
Let's talk about us, let's talk about us

Let's built a house
With a roof and a door
And light up a fire
So we won't leave anymore

We are lost in the stars
We are lost on this earth
We are lost at sea
But there is always a you
And there is always a me

Let's talk about us, let's talk about us
Is it me who needs you
Is it you who needs me
Let's talk about us, let's talk about us

Let's built a house
With a roof and a door
And light us a fire
So we won't leave anymore

Let's talk about us, let's talk about us
Is it me who wants you
Is it you who wants me
Let's talk about us, let's talk about us

My brother just lost me in less than a second
I'm gazing at a statue, that's lying in his bed
And my heart keeps on pounding
And the sun is bleeding everywhere

I'm standing at the grave and thinking about life
Is it the song of the blackbird or the old snakebite
And my heart keeps on pounding
And the sun is bleeding everywhere

His voice is gone, his life is done
Now I'll carry his name for the rest of my days

There is a crack in my soul that my body can't heal
I'm staring at the flowers but nothing seems real
And my heart keeps on pounding
And the sun is bleeding everywhere

His voice is gone, his life is done
Now I'll carry his name for the rest of my days

And the sun can take me anywhere
And the sun can take me anywhere

My brother just lost me in less than a second
I'm gazing at a statue, that's lying in his bed
And my heart keeps on pounding
And the sun is bleeding everywhere
And the sun can take me anywhere

Your love is paradise
Your love is hell
It must be one or the other
I just can't tell

Please, please, please love me
Please, please, please, love me

Your love is beautiful
Your love is wrong
But I can't stand the heath
I'm not that strong

Please, please, please love me
Please, please, please, love me
Please, please, love me, oh baby love me

Your love is colourful
Your love is black
I don't know what to do
And turn my back on you

Coward, coward, coward, I'm a coward
Coward, coward, coward, I'm a coward
Coward, coward, coward, I'm a coward
Coward, coward, coward, I'm a coward

I don't know where to go
I'm too confused
And I'm not brave enough
To say to you, you, you

Please, please, please, love me
Please, please, please, love me
Please, please, please love me, oh baby love me

We're just a bunch of flowers
Standing, standing in a vase
We're all different
From bud till leaf
But there is a rose in each of us

We're just a bunch of feathers
Hiding, hiding from the rain
We're looking for sun
To spread our wings
'cos there is a bird in each of us

Stand up and be who you want to be
Stand up and be who you want to be
I'm talking to you
I'm dreaming of me
Stand up and be who you want to be

We're just a flock of sheep
crowded, crowded in a cage
We all have learned
to close the gate
And there is a sheperd in each of us

We're just silly people
Trapped, trapped on this earth
We're all caught
In darkness and cold
But there's a light in all of us

Stand up and be who you want to be
Stand up and be who you want to be
I'm talking to you
I'm dreaming of me
Stand up and be the rose
Stand up and be the bird
Stand up and be the sheperd
Stand up and be the light
Stand up and be who you want to be.
Stand up, stand up, stand up, stand up

I'm your hangman
I'll sell your house
I'll wipe out your name
So nothing remains
But tears and laughter
Hidden in my brain

Change has come to stay forever
Change has come since your death
You'll change, you'll change
Your tree will grow taller
And someday
I'll come to sit and rest

I'm your hangman
I'll sell your car
I'll move your children around
So the place gets lost
And make way for memories
Hidden in my brain

Trust, trust, trust, the hangman
The hangman, the hangman, has taken over
Trust, trust, trust, the hangman
He'll wash his hands when the job is done

Change has come to stay forever
Change has come since your death
You'll change, you'll change
Your tree will grow taller
And someday
I'll come to sit and rest

I'm your hangman
I meet with your wife

Trust, trust, trust, the hangman
The hangman, the hangman, has taken over
Trust, trust, trust, the hangman
The hangman, the hangman has taken over
Trust, trust, trust, the hangman
He'll wash his hands when the job is done

The wind is whispering in the trees
The bees and birds are singing
And the big sky is sleeping in my hands
This earth is filled with mystery
The place where I belong
So this will be my land

Blood is running through my veins
Thoughts keep streaming through my mind
And I refuse to go insane
This world is full of miracles
The place where I belong
So this will be my land

Carry me, carry me
Bury me, bury me
I've got no better place to live
No better place to die

The sun has burnt my solitude
The moon has written all my dreams
My people have carried me to the end
A last cry of great desire
For the place I leave behind
So this will be your land

Carry me, carry me
Bury me, bury me
I've got no better place to live
No better place to die

Nothing will last
Time is running out on me
And nothing will last
Time is running out on me
And nothing will last
Time, time, time

Carry me, carry me
Bury me, bury me
Carry me, carry me
Bury me, bury me
I've got no better place to live
No better place to die
I've got no better place to live

I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
He walked right out on me

The room is warm and the lights are low
At the table sits brother Joe
He drums and sighs and counts his time
Until the morning comes

He marches up and down the street
Without a drum, tapping his feet
He dreams a drumband night and day
Until the morning comes

I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
He walked right out on me

He wears his shorts like a soldier
Carries his stick in his hand
Dreams of being a Beatle over and over
Until the morning comes

I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
He walked right out on me

And then there is that day of glory
He is out with his band, I watch his hands
The band goes left and he goes right, right, right, right, right
Until darkness falls

I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
I lost a little drummer boy
He walked right out on me

And it's all about imagination
And it's all about imagination
And it's all about imagination
And dreams that won't come true
Anymore, no, no, not anymore

You build my house and pave my street
You pick my fruit and harvest my wheat
You cure my cold, I have it all
Because of you and only you

I eat your bread and drink you wine
Eat your cheese and take up your time
I answer your calls, I have it all
Because of you and only you

Love comes with you
Love comes with you
Love comes with you

You find my oil, you'll be my judge
You steer my train and make my fudge
You dig my gold, I have it all
Because of you and only you

I cross your land and swim your seas
I share your luck and drink your tea
I love your enemies if you love them too
I have it all, because of you and only you

Love comes with you
Love comes with you
Love comes with you

I thought I was I
But I'm just the smaller part of we
I thought I was I
But I'm just the smaller part of we
I thought I was I
But I'm just the smaller part of we

Love comes with you
Love comes with you
Love comes with you

When, oh when will we learn
When,oh when will we learn
That if violence is preached
Peace will never be reached
When, oh when will we learn

Why, why, why don't we see
Why, why, why don't we see
That the people we meet
Are the people to greet
Why, why why don't we see

It's safe to be blind
Although it hurts to be blind
Because sometimes
It's even more painful to see

Why, why why don't we hear
Why, why why, don't we hear
That the words we speak
Can be friendly and sleek
LWhy, why, why don't we hear

Why, why, why don't we know
Why, why, why don't we know
That the life we live
Is the love that we give
Why, tell me why, don't we know

It's safe to be blind
Although it hurts to be blind
Because sometimes
It's even more painful to see
