- passages of 60's 70's song

Not a wholle song but a part of a song that you like:

I'll start with:

This world has lost its glory
lets start a brand new story now my love.
Right now, there'll be no other time
and I can show you how-my love.

 

Sweet blossom come on under the willow
We can have high times if you'll abide
We can discover the wonders of nature
Rolling in the rushes down by the riverside

 

And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
To all tomorrow's parties
And where will she go and what shall she do
When midnight comes around
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
And cry behind the door

 

Come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
he's got himself in a terrible jam
way down yonder in Viet Nam so
put down your books and pick up a gun we're
gonna have a whole lotta fun

 

So you children of the world,
listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in
spread the words today
Show the world that love is still alive
you must be brave
Or you children of today are
Children of the grave

 

My favourite!!!

 

The ever obvious, and yet still one of my personal favorites:

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong

 

She came in through the bathroom window
protected by a silver spoon
and now she sucks her thumb and wonders
by the banks of an old lagoon

 

I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love,
As she lies here beside me asleep with the night.
Her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow,
Reflecting the flow of the winter moonlight.

 

Let it be.

 

Seems I have to have a change of scene
Cause every night I have the strangest dreams
imprissioned by the way things should've been
left here on my own, or so it seems

I got to leave before I start to scream
cause someone locked the door.... and took the key.
Are you feeling alright?
cause I'm not feeling too good myself.


-------------------
Man, that's gold!!.

 

stop now whats that sound? everybody look whats goin' down

 

If you smile at me I will understand
'Cause that is somethin everybody everywhere does in the same language.
I can see by your coat, my friend, your'e from the other side
theres just one thing i got to know
can you tell me please, who won?

Say can I have some of your purple berries?
Yes Ive been eating them
for six or seven weeks now havent got sick once
probably keep us both alive

Wooden Ships on the water very free (and easy)
Easy you know the way its supposed to be
People on the shoreline let us be
talkin bout very free
and easy

 

wooden ships !! the best csn song.. one of them

 

There is a road, no simple highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
And if you go no one may follow,
That path is for your steps alone.

 

love is but the song we sing,and fear's the way we die--you can make the mountains ring or make the angels cry

 

Jefferson Airplane did it better, IMHO

 

One of my favorites...

"And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our souls
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying the stairway to heaven"

 

With haunted hearts through the heat and cold,
We never thought we could ever get old.
We thought we could sit forever in fun
But our chances really was a million to one.

As easy it was to tell black from white,
It was all that easy to tell wrong from right.
And our choices were few and the thought never hit
That the one road we traveled would ever shatter and split.

How many a year has passed and gone,
And many a gamble has been lost and won,
And many a road taken by many a friend,
And each one I've never seen again.

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
That we could sit simply in that room again.
Ten thousand dollars at the drop of a hat,
I'd give it all gladly if our lives could be like that.

 

Come on come on
Come on is such a joy
Come on is such a joy
Come on take it easy
Come on take it easy
Take it easy take it easy
Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey.

The deeper you go the higher you fly
The higher you fly the deeper you go
So come on come on
Come on is such a joy
Come on is such a joy
Come on make it easy
Come on make it easy.

Take it easy take it easy
Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey.

Your inside is out and your outside is in
Your outside is in and your inside is out
So come on come on
Come on is such a joy
Come on is such a joy
Come on make it easy
Come on make it easy
Make it easy make it easy
Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey.
