So wrap me
Wrap me
Wrap me do
In the shelter of your arms
I am ever your volunteer
I won't do you any harm
I will love you innumerably
You can count on my word
When times are mysterious
Serious numbers
Will always be heard
When times are mysterious
Serious numbers will always be heard
And after all is said and done
And the numbers all come home
The four rolls into three
The three turns into two
And the two becomes a
One

What with all my expectations long abandoned
And a future I no longer saw my hand in
How I found you is beyond my understanding
My stunning mystery companion
I know that you don't want to be
Out here forever on this road
Or live among the boxes
Where all my past lives have been stowed
Maybe you're thinking of someplace
With a garden by the sea
Where we could slow down
And you could put a little more work in on me

I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden by the sea

Home By the Sea
Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall
Stealing thru the dark of night
Climbing thru a window, stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
Something doesn’t feel quite right
Help me someone, let me out of here
Then out of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the home by the sea

Trouble in mind...I'm blue.
But I won't be blue always
'cause the sun gonna shine
in my backdoor someday.
I'm gonna lay, my head
On some lonesome railroad iron
And let the 2:19 train
Ease my worried mind.

And in my mind
I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there.
Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us
Helpless, helpless, helpless

I see the bad moon arising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin’.
I see bad times today.
Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise.

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright
Like a load on your back that you can't see
But it's alright
Try to shake it loose, cut it free, let it go,
Get it away from me, oh
Cause tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
I'm gonna make it right tonight, tonight, tonight, oh

Say hello to something new
Is what a friend told me to do
'cos beggars can't be choosers and I can't afford to loose
We never touched we never kissed
We never loved though we thought we did
So I walked away and I called it quits
What the eyes don't see, you know the heart won't miss
But I feel like a monkey in winter
And you are a lizard in the sun
Yes I feel like a monkey in winter
And winter's just began

Oh, Red went and bought himself a monkey
Got him from a pawn shop broker.
Taught that monkey how to guzzle beer
And he taught him how to play stud poker.
Last night when they were gambling in the kitchen
The monkey he was taking a beating.
The monkey said "Red, I'm going to shoot you dead
'cause I know that you've been cheating."
Well, run Red run, 'cause he's got your gun
And he's aiming it at your head.
Run Red run, 'cause he's got your gun,
And he's aiming it at your head.
You better get up and wail,
You better move your tail before he fills it full of lead.
Monkey trapped Red in a parking lot
Down along the Avenue.
Monkey said, "Red, you've made a man out of me,
Now I'm going to make a monkey out of you.
Give me your car keys, give me your wallet
Give it to me, or I'll shoot.
Gonna put on your brand new Stetson hat
And go to town in your new brown suit."
Run, Red, Run

Give Me The Keys (And I'll Drive You Crazy)
I can see you've got your motor running
Don't you think you're movin kinda slow
If you feel the way I feel
Let me get behind the wheel
We don't need any destination baby
Anywhere you wanna go
Give me the keys, and I'll drive you crazy
Give me the keys, I'll drive you out of your mind

They took all the trees
And put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people
A dollar and a half to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And they put up a parking lot
from Big Yellow Taxi by Joni M

So remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped ’round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!
Yeah!
Why does anyone do anything?
I don’t know, I was really drunk at the time!

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is
As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me what the time was that was on my watch, yeah
And I said
Does anybody really know what time it is
Does anybody really care
If so I can’t imagine why
We’ve all got time enough to cry

I saw her on a highway
On a D-train
I saw her eatin' a pizza
On 75th and Broadway
Saw her on a subway
On a biplane
Ahh, I'm getting tired o' this shit
I need a Yellow Cab
Help me get outta this rain
Do you think I could ever care

Yellow Submarine
In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

After the ball was over
Mary took out her glass eye
Propped her cork leg in the corner
Washed off the paint and the dye
Put her false teeth in the tumbler
Hung up her hair on the wall
And what was left went to slumber
After the ball

Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It's gettin' kind of long
I could've said it was in my way
But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it, yeah ... to someone

Gosh, Consuexcello, are we the elite reduced to "freak flags fly"?
Oh well...
And how's your new love?
Well, I hope that he's doin fine
I heard you told him, that you'd love him till the end of time
It's been so long now.
But it seems like only yesterday
Gee, ain't it funny, how time just slips away.
Well I gotta go now
And I guess I'll see you around
But I dont know when, though,
Cause you never know, when I'll be back in town
But remember, what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay
Ain't it funny, how time just slips right on away.
Time Slips Away

I met you several years ago,
The times they were so strange, but I had a feeling.
You looked into my eyes just once,
An instant flashing by that we were stealing.
Another time you felt so bad,
And I wasn't any help at all as I recall.
We didn't quite know what to do so we left the wanting be
Still there for me and you.
Dark star, I see you in the morning,
Dark star, a' sleeping next to me.
Dark star, let the memory of the evening
Be the first thing that you think of
When you open up your smile and see me, dark star.

Helplessly hoping
Her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses
Of gentle true spirit
He runs, wishing he could fly
Only to trip at the sound of good-bye
Wordlessly watching
He waits by the window
And wonders
At the empty place inside
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
He worries
Did he hear a good-bye? Or even hello?
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other
Stand by the stairway
You'll see something
Certain to tell you confusion has its cost
Love isn't lying
It's loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other
Helplessly Hoping~CSN&Y

'Cause I've never once dissed one of yours  I'll light the fire You place the flowers in the vase That you bought today Staring at the fire For hours and hours While I listen to you Play your love songs All night long for me Only for me Come to me now And rest your head for just five minutes Everything is done Such a cosy room The windows are illuminated By the evening sunshine through them Fiery gems for you Only for you Our house is a very, very, very fine house With two cats in the yard Life used to be so hard Now everything is easy 'Cause of you Our House~CSN&Y

Sitting by the fireside with a book in your hand
Two lazy dogs sittin' watchin' your man
Three roses were bought with you in mind
Three roses were bought with you in mind
I gotta stop and see what I'm on about
Stop and feel what I want I gotta
Stop and see what I'm on about
Stop and feel what I want with you
Ah
Walking through a wonderland, I got you by the hand
Every move we made, just as if it were planned
Three roses were bought with you in mind
Three roses were bought with you in mind

Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back
It always leads back to you
I'm in Georgia, Georgia, sweet Georgia
No peace, no peace I find
Just this old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia forever on my mind...

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
<instrumental interlude>
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Now I look'ed east
And I look'ed west
Where the sun, it shown wonderful warm
And who should I spy
But my bonny, bonny boy
He was locked in another girl's arms
He was locked in another girl's arms
Now the girl who's the joy
Of my bonny, bonny boy
I'm sure she is never to blame
Though many a long night
She has robbed me of my rest
She never will do it again
She never will do it again

I don't wanna say that I've been unhappy with you
But as from today, well I've seen somebody that's new
I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
For I have got another girl
another girl who will love me till the end
Through thick and thin she will always be my friend...

Let's give love a try
Let love control, control your destiny
Owe it to ourselves, yes we do
to live happy eternally.
Sweet love is what we're searching for
And love is what we're looking for
Now that I've got it right here in my hand
I'm gonna spread it all over the land.

Once upon a time,
A girl with moonlight in her eyes,
Put her>>> hand<<< in mine,
And said she loved me so . . .
But that was once upon a time,
Very long ago!
Once upon a hill,
We sat beneath the willow tree,
Counting all the stars,
And waiting for the dawn,
But that was once upon a time,
Now, the tree is gone!
How the breeze ruffled through her hair,
How we always laughed,
As though tomorrow wasn’t there . . .
We were young,
And didn’t have a care,
Where did it go?
Once upon a time,
The world was sweeter than we knew,
Everything was ours,
How happy we were then . . .
But, somehow, once upon a time,
Never comes again!
Once Upon A Time

Up in a balloon
Sailing 'round the little stars
And all around the moon
Up in a balloon boys
Up in a balloon
Won't we have a jolly time
Up in a balloon?
