On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day I saw her first and knew That her dark hair would weave a snare That I may one day rue I saw the danger, yet I walked Along the enchanted way And I said let grief be a falling leaf At the dawning of the day On Grafton Street in November We tripped lightly along the ledge Of a deep ravine where can be seen The worst of passions pledged The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts And I not making hay Well I loved too much; by such and such Is happiness thrown away I gave her the gifts of the mind I gave her the secret sign Thats known to all the artists who have Known true Gods of Sound and Time With word and tint I did not stint I gave her reams of poems to say With her own dark hair and her own name there Like the clouds over fields of May On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now away from me So hurriedly. My reason must allow For I have wooed, not as I should A creature made of clay When the angel woos the clay, hell lose His wings at the dawn of the day

The sun was setting over Avalon The last time we stood in the west Suffering long time angels enraptured by Blake Burn out the dross innocence captured again Standing on the beach at sunset And all the boats keep moving slow In the glory of the flashing light in the evenings glow When will I ever learn to live in God? When will I ever learn? He gives me everything I need and more When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn? He gives me everything I need and more When will I ever learn? Whatever it takes to fulfill His mission That is the way we must go But youve got to do it your own way Tear down the old, bring up the new And up on the hillside its quiet Where the shepherd is tending his sheep And over the mountains and the valleys And the countryside is so green Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder You can see that everything is made in God Head back down the roadside and give thanks for it all When will I ever learn to live in God? When will I ever learn? He gives me everything I need and more When will I ever learn? When will I ever learn to live in God? When will I ever learn? He gives me everything I need and more When will I ever learn? When will I ever learn to live in God? When will I ever learn? He gives me everything I need and more When will I ever learn?

I saw you from a foreign window Bearing down the sufferin road You were carryin your burden To the palace of the Lord To the palace of the Lord I spied you from a foreign window When the lilacs were in bloom And the sun shone through your window pane To the place you kept your books You were reading on your sofa You were singin every prayer That the masters had instilled in you Since Lord Byron loved despair In the palace of the Lord And if you get it right this time You dont have to come back again Oh and if you get it right this time Theres no need to explain I saw you from a foreign window Bearing down the sufferin road You were carryin your burden You were singing about Rimbaud I was going down to Geneva When the Kingdom had been found I was giving you protection From the loneliness of the crowd In the palace of the Lord They were giving you religion Breaking bread and drinking wine And you laid out on the green hills Just like when you were a child I saw you from a foreign window You were trying to find your way back home You were carrying your defects Sleeping on a pallet on the floor In the palace of the Lord In the palace of the Lord In the palace of the Lord

Take me back Take me way, way, way back On Hyndford Street Where you could feel the silence at half past eleven On long summer nights As the wireless played Radio Luxembourg And the voices whispered across Beechie River In the quietness as we sank into restful slumber in the silence And carried on dreaming in God And walks up Cherry Valley from North Road Bridge, railway line On sunny summer afternoons Picking apples from the side of the tracks That spilled over from the gardens of the houses On Cyprus Avenue Watching the moth catcher work the floodlights in the evenings And meeting down by the pylons Playing round Mrs. Kellys lamp Going out to Holywood on the bus And walking from the end of the lines to the seaside Stopping at Fuscos for ice cream In the days before rock n roll Hyndford Street, Abetta Parade Orangefield, St. Donards Church Sunday six-bells And in between the silence there was conversation And laughter, and music and singing And shivers up the back of the neck And tuning in to Luxembourg late at night And jazz and blues records during the day Also Debussy on the third programme Early mornings when contemplation was best Going up the Castlereagh hills And the cregagh glens in summer and coming back To Hyndford Street, feeling wondrous and lit up inside With a sense of everlasting life And reading Mr. Jelly Roll and Big Bill Broonzy And Really The Blues by Mezz Mezzrow And Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac Over and over again And voices echoing late at night over Beechie River And its always being now And its always being now Its always now Can you feel the silence? On Hyndford Street where you could feel the silence At half past eleven on long summer nights As the wireless played Radio Luxembourg And the voices whispered across Beechie River And in the quietness we sank into restful slumber in silence And carried on dreaming in God

Something else dont stop that longing Or something new or something old Im on my way to understanding Things that I might yet not know In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul Sitting here but I didnt plan it Well the plans of mice and men have gone astray Standing here on the landing Looking at a brand new day In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul Meditate on this and it will be revealed Meditate on this and you will get healed Meditate on this and you will feel whole Get the vision of the ghost, again In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul Sitting here but I didnt plan it this way Well the plans of mice and men have gone astray Now Im standing on the landing Im looking for a brand new day In the dark night of the soul In the dark night of the soul

We were born before the wind And were so much younger than the sun Ere the bonnie boat was won As we sailed into the mystic Hark, now hear the sailors cry Feel the sea and touch the sky And let your soul and your spirit fly As we sailed into the mystic And when that fog horn blows You know I will be coming home And when that fog horn whistle blows I want to hear it I dont have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in those days of old Then together we will fall As we sail into the mystic Cause we were born before the wind And were so much younger than the sun Ere the bonnie boat was won As we sailed into the mystic Hark, now hear the sailors cry Feel the sea and touch the sky And let your soul and your spirit fly As we sailed into the mystic And when that fog horn blows You know I will be coming home And when that fog horn whistle blows I want to hear it I dont have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in those days of old And magnificently we will fall As we sail into the mystic

By the mansion on the hillside Red sports car comes driving down the road And pulls up into the driveway And a story does unfold Shes standing by the rhododendrons Where the roses are in bloom Looking out at the Atlantic Ocean And in her head she hums this tune Thank God the dark nights are drawing in again Cause high summer has got me down Ill wait till the end of August And get off this merry-go-round And they shut him out of paradise Called him Lucifer and frowned She took pride in what God made him Even before the angels shot him down to the ground Hes a light out of the darkness And he wears a starry crown If you see him, nothing will shake him Cause high summer has got him low down High summers got him lonesome Even when he makes the rounds, makes the rounds Theres been no two ways about it High summers got him low down Checked in to the tiny village by the lakeside Settled down to start anew Far away from the politicians And the many chosen few Far away from the jealousy factor And everything that was tearing him apart Far away from the organ grinder And everyone that played their part And they shut him out of paradise Called him Lucifer and frowned Cause he took pride in what God made him Even before the angels shot him to the ground Hes a light out of the darkness And he wears a starry crown If you see him nothing is shaken Cause high summers got him low down High summer on the rebound High summers got him low down High summer on the rebound High summers got him low down High summer on the rebound High summers got him low down Low down

Some people spend their time just runnin round in circles Always chasing some exotic bird I prefer to spend some time just listening for that special something That Ive never ever heard I like a new song to sing, another show or somewhere entirely different to be But baby you make me feel so free And so I yearn for a mistress calling me Thats the muse, thats the muse But we only burn up with that passion When theres absolutely nothing left to lose I make it to spring and theres no bed of roses Just more hard work and bad company But baby you make me feel so free I heard them say that you can have your cake and eat it But all I wanted was one free lunch How can I eat it when the man thats next to me, he grabbed it Lord, he beat me to the punch How can I even talk about freedom When you know its sweet mystery But baby I wanna say that you make me feel so free Im gonna lay my cards just right down on the table And spin the wheel and roll the dice And whatever way it comes out And whatever way it turns out Well you know thats the price Well Ill order again theres no need to explain I just need somewhere to dump all my negativity But baby you make me feel so free What ya say what you say What you say what you say what you say Say it say it say it say it again You make me feel so free So doggone free Songwriter: Van Morrison

Snow in San Anselmo The deer cross by the lights The mission down in old San Rafael A madman looking for a fight A madman looking for a fight The massage parlors open The clientele come and they go The classic music station Plays in the background soft and low Plays in the background soft and low The silence round the cascades The ice crisp and clear The beginning of the opera Seem to suddenly appear Seem to suddenly appear The pancake house is always crowded Open 24 hours of every day And if you suffer from insomnia You can speed your time away You can speed your time away Snow in San Anselmo My waitress my waitress my waitress Said it was coming down Said it hadnt happened in over 30 years But it was laying on the ground But it was laying on the ground

We stood and watched the river flow We were too young to really know In the country fair Oh, in the country fair We laid out in the long green grass And never thought that it would pass In the country fair In the country fair On an old, on an old open day On an old rainshine open day In the country fair In the cool night air In sweet summer time We counted pebbles in the sand Sand like time slippin through our hand In the country fair In the country fair On an old, on an old open day On an old raintrack open day In the country fair In the cool night air In sweet summer time Hmmm mmmm On an old open day On an old Pinecone open day

Across the bay the fog is lifting And I am here in Tiburon Thats what she said When she was sitting looking out at the Golden Gate In the morning dawn Across the bay in San Francisco Where city lights and Ferlinghetti stay North Beach alleyways and cafés Kerouac and Ginsberg Gregory Corso and Neal Cassady all held sway Vince Guaraldi would play Cast Your Fate To The Wind in the distance Lenny Bruce got busted at The Hungry Eye The No-Name Bar down in Sausalito Across the street where Chet Baker used to play My heart was beating on the hillside Near Belvedere and Tiburon I need to take you back, back down to Frisco Now we need each other, need each other to lean on Vince Guaraldi would play Cast Your Fate To The Wind And wed listen In the evening across the way Chet Baker would play down at the trident With his horn he blew everybody away The Cliff House down at the Seal Rock Hotel Foghorns blowing all night long til dawn Gerry Street culchies left their homeland a long while ago Some have stayed, but others not for so long My heart was beating on the hillside Near Belvedere and Tiburon Take you back down to San Francisco Now we need each other more than ever to lean on Now we need each other more than ever to lean on Lean on me Lean on Now we need each other more than ever to lean on Back to city lghts, North Beach and Broadway We need each other We need each other to lean on Across the bay in Tiburon Across the bay in Tiburon

My young love said to me My mother wont mind And my father wont slight you For your lack of kind She stepped away from me And this she did say It will not be long love Till our wedding day She stepped away from me And she moved through the fair And fondly I watched her move here And move there And she went her way homeward With one star awake As the swan in the evening Moved over the lake Last night she came to me My young love came in So softly she entered That her feet made no din And she came close beside me And this she did say It will not be long love Till our wedding day

Im tired Joey boy While youre out with the sheep My life is so troubled Now I cant go to sleep I would walk myself out But the streets are so dark I shall wait till the morning And walk in the park This life is so simple When one is at home And Im never complaining When theres work to be done Oh Im tired Joey boy Of the makings of men I would like to be cheerful again Ambition will take you and ride you too far And conservatism bring you to boredom once more Sit down by the river Watch the stream flow Recall all the dreams That you once used to know The things youve forgotten That took you away To pastures not greener but meaner Love of the simple Is all that I need Ive no time for schism Or lovers of greed Go up to the mountain Go up to the glen When silence will touch you And heartbreak will mend

I was Mr Nice Guy too long And I found out that was wrong And I played the losing role Now Im standing at your door Out in the cold again Out in the cold again I didnt know just what was going on Behind my back for so long People that couldnt tell right from wrong Now Im standing here all alone Out in the cold again Out in the cold again Travelled up and down all around the world Just to get to nowhere In the final round I found How many people really did care And every time I try talking to you You dont hear what Im going through In this dog eat dog world Im in Its a crying shame and its a sin To be out in the cold again To be out in the cold again Travelled up and down, up and down, up and down Just to end up nowhere, end up nowhere In the final round I found Many people did care And then they welcome me back home Right back into the fold But Im still out, still out here on a limb Im on the outside just looking in Out in the cold again Out in the cold again Out in the cold again In between the times where it feels alright To the cold black night In between the times where it feels alright To the dead of the cold black night In between the dusk and the dawn And the cold black night Trying not to get too uptight Trying not to show the strain Having to hide my pain In between the times where it feels a little bit right In the day, in the cold black night In the early morning dawn

We were standing in the kingdom And by the mansion gate We stood enraptured by the silence As the birds sang their heavenly song In Tir Na Nog We stopped in the church of Ireland And prayed to our father And climbed up the mountainside With fire in our hearts And we walked all the way to Tir Na Nog I said with my eyes that I recognised your chin It was my long lost friend To help me from another lifetime We took each others hands and cried Like a river when we said hello And we walked to Tir Na Nog We made a big connection On a golden autumn day We were standing in the garden wet with rain And our souls were young again In Tir Na Nog And outside the storm was raging Outside Jerusalem We drove in our chariots of fire Following the big sun in the west Going up, going up to Tir Na Nog You came into my life And you filled me and you filled me oh so joyous By the clear cool crystal streams Where the roads were quiet and still And we walked all the way To Tir Na Nog How can we not be attached? After all were only human The only way then is to never come back Except I wouldnt want that, would you? If we werent together again in Tir Na Nog In Tir Na Nog Weve been together before In a different incarnation And we loved each other then as well And we sat down in contemplation Many many many many times you kissed mine eyes In Tir Na Nog

Boy and his dog Went out looking for the rainbow You know what did they learn Since that very day Walking by the river And running like a blue streak Through the fields of streams and meadows Laughing all the way Oh redwood tree Please let us under When we were young we used to go Under the redwood tree And it smells like rain Maybe even thunder Wont you keep us from all harm Wonderful redwood tree And a boy and his father Went out, went out looking for the lost dog You know what oh havent they learned Since they did that together They did not bring him back He already had departed But look at everything they have learned Since that, since that very day Oh redwood tree Please let us under When we were young we used to go Under the redwood tree And it smells like rain Maybe even thunder Wont you keep us from all harm Wonderful redwood tree Ta da da da...
