Asia - Don't Cry (Acoustic)(Fantasia Live in Tokyo 2007)

SAILING WITH THE WIND AND MY FATHER

WE WERE NEVER VERY CLOSE
AS SONS AND FATHERS CAN BE
THE LOVE THAT WE SHARED
WAS BOUND BY THE SEA
ON THE WAVES OF THE GULF
JUST THE TWO OF US AND A WIND
SAILING UPON THE GULFS WATERS
MAYBE NOT CLOSE, BUT THEN
WHEN I SMELL THE  SEA SPRAY
AS I WATCH THE SAILS UNFURL
WE ARE JOINED IN THE SOUL
IN THE WIND AND THE WORLD

AUGUST AND EVERYTHING AFTER

IT WAS A COLD NIGHT I RECALL

WHEN WE MET FOR THAT FIRST TIME

SEEMED I KNEW FROM THAT MOMENT

YOU WOULD SOMEDAY BE MINE

WITHIN NO TIME AT ALL

WE WERE PLANNING A LIFE

WITH A HOME AND CHILDREN

AND YOU AS MY WIFE

WE WED IN THE MIDDLE OF JUNE

SAID THE WORDS "TIL DEATH DO US PART"

THAT EVERYONE SAYS ON THAT DAY

AND EVERY WORD WAS WRITTEN IN MY HEART

I LOVED YOU AS STRONG

AS I THINK ANY MAN COULD

THOUGH I KNOW I DIDN'T DO

ALL THE THINGS THAT I SHOULD

IT WAS AUGUST WHEN YOU LEFT FOR GOOD

YOUR DESTINATION I DON'T KNOW

BUT I OFTEN THINK OF OUR LIFE

WHEN THE WINTER WINDS BLOW

THAT LIFE OF OURS IS ALL OVER NOW

ALL THE LOVE, ALL THE LAUGHTER

SEEMS LIFE FOR ME WILL ALWAYS BE

AUGUST AND EVERYTHING AFTER

I ALWAYS SHOW UP

I ALWAYS THINK IT WILL BE BETTER

AND I WILL LIVE IN HAPPINESS AND WEALTH

BUT IT SEEMS THAT EVERYWHERE I GO

I ALWAYS TAKE MYSELF.......

ALL THAT NOW REMAINS

A GARDEN OF STONE

WITH GRASS A BLUISH GREEN

AND WEATHERED DATES ON MARKERS

TO OFTEN NEVER SEEN

I AM OFTEN FILLED WITH WONDER

A SENSE OF SORROW AND LOSS

THOUGH MOST OF THESE I DIDN'T KNOW

THESE NAMES NOW COVERED IN MOSS

FOR ALL WERE LOVED BY SOMEONE

AND THEY LOVED JUST THE SAME

BUT NOW LIE HERE FOR ETERNITY

TO MOST JUST A DATE AND A NAME

A FATHER, MOTHER, SON OR DAUGHTER

THEY WENT THROUGH JOY AND PAIN

NOW WEATHERED MARKINGS ON COLD GRAY STONE

IS ALL THAT STILL REMAINS

WHAT SHALL WE DO NOW? CLASS WAR WAGED BY GOP, FALSE ARGUMENTS

THE NEWS THIS MORNING WAS DISTURBING,

FOR HOUSE SPEAKER BOEHNER QUITE UNNERVING,

THERE SEEMS NO END TO OUR POLITICAL EROSION,

AS HE LIVES IN FEAR OF A TANNING BED EXPLOSION,


THE PEOPLES BUSINESS NOW CAST ASIDE,

BUT THE GOP TAKES IT ALL IN STRIDE,

AS LONG AS THEY KEEP GUNS AND GAYS THE TOPIC AT HAND

MIDDLE AMERICA GETS SCREWED AGAIN.

Leaving October

The chill of fall is gone

The days have grown  cold

After the leaves have fallen

And the year becomes old

I long for sweet summer

When the winter winds blow

But in the heat of July

I'm sort of missing the snow

Seems I can't be content

When a season is over

I suppose my entire life

Is like leaving October

TAKE OUT THE DOG

IF YOU HAD A FRIENDLY DOG

THAT YOU THOUGHT WAS THE BEST

WOULD YOU SCRATCH HIS EARS

AND RUB HIM ON THE CHEST?

AND IF HE HAD NO LEGS

YOUR FRIENDS LAUGHED AND CALLED HIM A HAG

WOULD YOU PUT ON HIS LEASH EVERYDAY

AND TAKE HIM OUT FOR A DRAG?
