Kings And Queens |
|
Long ago in days untoled Were ruled by lords of greed Maidens fair, with gold they dared To bare their wombs that bleed Kings And Queens and guillotines Taking lives denied Starch and parchments laid the laws When bishops took the ride Only to decieve Oh I know I Lived this life before Somehow I know now Truths I must be sure Tossin' turnin', nightmares brunin' Dreams of swords in hand Sailing ships, the viking spits The blood of father's land Only to decieve Living times of knights and mares Raising swords for maidens fair Sneer at death, fear only loss of pride Living other centuries Deja v or what you please Follows true to all who do or die Screams of no reply They died Screams of no reply And died Lordy, Lordy, they died |

Dream On |
|
Everytime that I look in the mirror All these lines on my face gettin' clearer The past is gone It went by like dust to dawn Isn't that the way Everybody's got their dues in life to pay I know what nobody knows Where it comes and where it goes I know it's everybody's sin You got to lose to know how to win Half my life is in books' written pages Live and learn from fools and from sages You know it's true All the things come back to you Sing with me, sing for the years Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears Sing with me, if it's just for tofay Mabye tomorrow the good Lord will take you away Dream On, Dream On Dream yourself a dream come true Dream On, Dream On Dream until your dream come true Dream On, Dream On, Dream On... Sing with me, sing for the years Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears Sing with me, if it's just for today Mabye tomorrow the good Lord will take you away |
