If we could feel the thunder And we could touch the hunger Our tears inside the storm Are lost and without form We reach out to enfold To save our souls
We think we hear the heart beat In places where our worlds meet One world that holds for us all Enough, that no-one need fall The stranger we would console May save our souls
We believe - still... We still believe That we can see To save us all... Save us all...
If we could feel the thunder... And we could touch the hunger... (hunger)
Cassidy
Composer(s): John Perry Barlow - Bob Weir
First release by: Grateful Dead - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
I have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream I can tell by the mark he left, you were in his dream Ah child of countless trees Ah child of boundless seas What you are, what you're meant to be Speaks his name, though you were born to me Born to me, Cassidy
Lost now on the country miles on his Cadillac I can tell by the way you smile, he is rolling back Come wash the night-time clean Come grow the scorched ground green Blow the horn, tap the tambourine Close the gap of the dark years in between You and me, Cassidy
Quick beats in an icy heart Catch colt draws a coffin cart There he goes and now here she starts Hear her cry
Flight of the seabirds Scattered like lost words Wheel to the storm and fly
Faring thee well now Let your life proceed by its own designs Nothing to tell now Let the words be yours, I'm done with mine
Fly Me To The Moon Composer(s): Bart Howard Performer(s): Tony Bennett; and various other artists
Fly me to the moon Let me play among the stars Let me see what spring is like On a-Jupiter and Mars In other words, hold my hand In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song And let me sing for ever more You are all I long for All I worship and adore In other words, please be true In other words, I love you
(instrumental - first verse)
Fill my heart with song Let me sing for ever more You are all I long for All I worship and adore In other words, please be true In other words, in other words

Il fiume dei ricordi Il greto del passato Sta ritornando da me Sta rivivendo per te Ma dove ti troverò Se tu non vuoi?
Risento i baci su di me I baci tuoi, gli abbracci tuoi Che mi bruciano ancor Che mi fanno languir Che mi fanno morir
Il fiume dei ricordi Il greto del passato Sta ritornando da me Sta rivivendo per te Ma dove ti troverò Se tu non vuoi?
E il mare che ti vide li Il suo calor, il suo tepor Tramutare vorrei In un gelido mar In un buio mortal
Cassandra
Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus
Performer(s): ABBA
Down in the street they're all singing and shouting Staying alive though the city is dead Hiding their shame Behind hollow laughter While you are crying alone on your bed Pity Cassandra That no-one believed you But then again you were lost from the start Now we must suffer nd sell our secrets Bargain, playing smart Aching in our hearts
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted But none of us would Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour
So in the morning Your ship will be sailing Now that your father and sister are gone There is no reason for you to linger Grieving deeply but still moving on You know the future is casting a shadow No-one else sees it But you know your fate Packing your bags Being slow and thorough Knowing, though you're late That ship is sure to wait
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us would Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour
I watched her ship leaving harbour at sunrise Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain She stood on deck just a tiny figure Rigid and restrained Blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted But none of us would Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour
Fly Like A Bird Composer(s): Boz Scaggs Performer(s): Boz Scaggs
There was a howl that night A howling like they never heard before A cry so loud old granddad almost hit the door He said, "I love this child as much as any one that she ever bore But I thank the Lord we won't be having any more"
Then the baby heard the sweetest sound he'd ever heard In tones so beautiful he hung on every word She sang, "Hush, my love, granny's little dove is going to take to the sky" It was on such a night he learned to fly like a bird
Now the years have passed and memories come and go He hears that voice that rocked him gently so A calm will descend and there's peace at the end of the darkest night Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird
Now the years have passed and memories come and go He hears that voice that rocked him gently so Well, the rain's gonna fall and the wind may blow in the darkest night Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird
A calm will descend and there's peace at the end of the darkest night Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird

Non so dove trovarti Non so come cercarti Ma sento una voce che Nel vento parla di te Quest' anima senza cuore Aspetta te Adagio Le notti senza pelle I sogni senza stelle Immagini del tuo viso Che passano all' improvviso Mi fanno sperare ancora Che ti trovero Adagio Chiudo gli occhi e vedo te Trovo il cammino che Mi porta via Dall' agonia
Sento battere in me Questa musica che Ho inventato per te Se sai come trovarmi Se sai dove cercarmi Abbracciami con la mente Il sole mi sembra spento Accendi il tuo nome in cielo Dimmi che ci sei Quello che vorrei Vivere in te Il sole mi sembra spento Abbracciami con la mente Smarrita senza di te Dimmi chi sei e ci credero Musica

You're my anchor I'm a kite Yor're what gets me through the night Keeps me steady and on course 'til I found you I was lost Now you're the earth And I'm the sky Sometimes when I go too high You pull the string that holds me back If not for you I might lose track and
Fly away oh I must fly away And go my own way To places that we've never been together I might fly away Take to the sky someday But for now Not today Cause nobody here is flyin' Flying away
You have reasons I have dreams So we're perfect so it seems You tell fortunes I tell truths You kept me from my crazy youth 'cause when I'm near you I feel whole I don't have to rock'n'roll I don't worry I don't think But hold me 'cause I'm on the brink I might...
Fly away oh I must fly away And go my own way To places that we've never been together I might fly away Take to the sky someday But not for now Not today Cause nobody here is flyin' Flying away

Fly Away Composer(s): John Denver Performer(s): John Denver
All of her days have gone soft and cloudy All of her dreams have gone dry All of her nights have gone sad and shady She's getting ready to fly
Fly away, fly away, fly away
Life in the city can make you crazy For sounds of the sand and the sea Life in a high-rise can make you hungry For things that you can't even see
Fly away, fly away, fly away
In this whole world there's nobody as lonely as she There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere That she'd rather be
She's looking for lovers and children playing She's looking for signs of the spring She listens for laughter and sounds of dancing She listens for any old things
