On The Bus
03:40

Dinosaur, Colorado
And gasoline
A bus to carry the lonely
Breaking down all the time
Daydream out the window
Tracing signs
You have your sunny window
But come look out mine
There’s one more seat by my side
Driver take us anywhere
Chase the sunset
Take this road until it ends
And then keep on going
On the bus is where it started
I found my beating heart
Finding something new
Don’t know where we’re going to
A little can take us a long way
The scenery always gets me
The trees are turning into bells
The waves are carrying the swells
The bus leaves tonight
There’s one more seat by my side
Driver take us anywhere
Chase the sunset
Take this road until it ends
And then keep on going
There’s one more seat by my side (3x)
That’s happy to hold you
On the bus is where it started
I found my beating heart

With You

You’re the kind, the kind that wraps up my mind
Like a big city chaos that gets your head all spinning around
You’re the kind, the kind that wraps up my mind
Like a big city chaos, this love ain’t blind
You’re the best, you’re better than all the rest
My girl, my little girl
Try to run, run from me all the time
Oh why put me through that
You’re the kind, the kind that messes up my mind
Looking for the cure but leaving me blind
Wise men tell me it was in my head
When I look through me I see you there
Two more lazy Sundays lost in bed….is all I needed….with you
You’re the kind, the kind that wraps up my mind
Like a big city chaos that gets your head all spinning around
You’re the kind, the kind that wraps up my mind
Like a big elevator that takes you sky high
It’s time we put our saddles down
We’re wasting all our energy
On things that we should never say
It kinda makes me wanna break away….to the half light
Repeat chorus
You’re the kind, the kind that wraps up my mind
On this elevator, I’m out of my mind
The time it takes to make it up
Is long enough for you to stop
And look around the mountaintop
You’ve come too far to throw it all away….what you started
Repeat chorus

Take Your Soul And Run
06:28
|
|||
|
They won’t know whether or not you are ready
They’re not gonna sit there and fight over you
You think that you can stop the whole world from crying, crying
Who knows
We know
Do we all agree though
Take your soul and run, and run
Who knows
We know
Stop there and you won’t see though
Are you ready, are you ready?
To take your soul and run
Many of times
Many of roads
So many hopes have been sold
Too many people who shouldn’t be wrong
We’re sharing the light when we’re strong
Yeah, when the people will change
We will all dance in the rain
And then we’ll leave something
Who knows
We know
Do we all agree though
Take your soul and run, and run
Who knows
We know
Stop there and you won’t see though
Are you ready, are you ready?
To take your soul and run
Who knows
We know
Car wheels won’t take you though
Take your soul and run, and run

Hold Yourself Together
02:39
|
|||
|
Save a little time
By going around the world
Everything’s the same
We are all alike on the inside
Hold yourself together (4x)
Things can get bad
Then they go and turn out good
Think about the good days with your eyes closed
Think of what could be again
Hold yourself together (4x)
Knowing what is possible
The child is a man
Born alone…now he’s grown
Time to put the lessons to the test
Save a little time
By going around the world
Everyone’s the same
We are all alike on the inside
Hold yourself together (4x)
You’ve got to hold on……

Run Baby Run
05:17
|
|||
|
You think you know what’s inside
The passageway through your mind
Take some time to look around
Baby can’t you see you’re out of control
Driving, red stoplights on
Run baby run, run baby run
Be careful not to run into yourself tonight
You’ll never be second best
The pain you feel is not your own
Balloons, trains, planes and cars….you’ve come so far
Repeat chorus
I wish I could say this wasn’t bad news
Let’s have a drink and a smoke and talk about what bothers you
And your father’s blues
Years ago you were misunderstood
Times are changing where do you go, where do you go, when it’s all that you know
You’re moving like a hurricane whose eye is in a path to drift away
Repeat chorus

I'm Already Gone
02:56
|
|||
|
Wherever I go
You’re looking at me through every window
No need to hide
I carry you with me deep down inside
It’s so wrong
No interaction is no life at all
I’m already gone
To track down the moonbeam that you left here on
I’m already gone
To finish the puzzle that waits to be solved
Dinner on the porch
Candles and whiskey drown out all the noise
Celebrate…..
Another year older with no time to wait
I hear your call
Nothing can stop what’s been true all along
I’m already gone
To track down the moonbeam that you left here on
I’m already gone
To finish the puzzle that waits to be solved
I’ll be on time
Don’t need my body, you know my soul
Wherever I go
There’s always a wishing to which I am prone
Familiar sounds
Leading me into where you can be found
I’m already gone
To track down the moonbeam that you left here on
I’m already gone
To finish the puzzle that waits to be solved

Space Ghost
03:44

|
Doo do do do do dooo dooo doooo, dooo do do do do doooo dooo ooooh aaaah
Soon the white curtain will fall
No it meant nothing at all
Waiting for the ride of my life
Waiting for you now
In the night I’m not afraid
In the light I’m not alone
Space ghost
Don’t try fishing for roses
A full hand is what you’ve been holding all along
Waiting for the ride of my life
Soon the white curtain will fall
No it meant nothing at all
Space ghost (repeat)

Long Way To Go
04:47
|
|||
|
Ooooooh Ooooooh, aaaaaah aaaaaaah
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
Ooooooh Ooooooh, aaaaaah aaaaaaah
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
I know you’ve come a long way but there’s a long way to go
Lost in time like a boat on the river
A kiss on the side of the moon ray
Just like a walk through the roses
Or falling through oceans of cabernet
I wanna fly…….
I wanna fly away
Takes a long time to get there, down the road (repeat)

David Gergen Los Angeles, California
