Ride The Tiger

I want to ride the tiger
I want to ride the tiger
It will be black and white in the dead of night
Eyes flashing in the clear moonlight
I want to ride the tiger.

It's like a tear in the hands of a western man
Tell you about salt, carbon and water
But a tear to a chinese man
He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and
a woman.

I want to ride the tiger
I want to sail through the risin' sun for you and you
We got something to learn from the other side
Something to give, we got nothing to hide
I want to ride the tiger.

Black wants out of the streets
Yellow wants the country
Red wants the country back
And white wants out of this world
Sing - sing to the sky
I want to ride the tiger
I want to ride the tiger.

Look to the summer of seventy-five
All the world is gonna come alive
Do you want to ride the tiger?

It's like a tear in the hands of a western man
Tell you about salt, carbon and water
But a tear to an oriental man
He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and
a woman.




Miracles

If only you believe like I believe, baby, like I believe,
We'd get by.
If only you believe(d) in miracles, so would I. (2x)

I might have to move heaven and earth to prove it to you, baby.

So we're making love, you feel the power and I feel the power.
And there's really nothing we can('t) do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If we wanted to...
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist on the stars, it'd be so easy.

(Oh Baby...)
All we got to do is get a little faith in you.

Oh, I've been so many places I've seen some things (yes I have)

I know that love is the answer (yes it is)

Keeps holding this world together (oh yeah)

Ain't nothing better. Ain't nothing better.(Nothing's better!)

And all the answers to our prayers,
Hell, it's the same everywhere. (just the same now)

Nothing ever breaks up the heart...(love's a game now)
...only tears give you away (Ain't it a shame now).

When you're right where I found you...(oh baby)
...with my arms around you. (oh baby)

Baby, baby.
Love is a magic word few ever find in a lifetime

But from that very first look in your eyes I knew you and I had but one
heart.

Only our bodies were apart...(it's making me crazy)
...that was so easy, so easy.

I had a taste of the real world...(Just a drop of it)
...when I went down on you, girl, oh. (you never stopped me)

(Repeat Chorus)

I can hear windmills and rainbows whenever you talkin' to me

(never say never)

I feel like swirling and dancing whenever you're walkin' with me

You ripple like a river when I touch you (let me touch you)
When I pluck your body like a string (show you what I mean)
When I start dancing inside you (oh baby, a love song)
You make me want to sing

Oh baby in a love song, aw baby...
Oh Yeah, Yeah, All right
Baby we're sure doin' it tonight

Every time you come by let me try (come on by)
Pretty please, with sugar on it, that's how I like it,

I can't even believe it with you

It's like having every dream I ever wanted...(dream of a lifetime)
...come true.

I picked up your vibes, you know... (I'm having a fine time)
...it opened my mind but I'm still dreaming.

Yeah. And you're right where I found you, with my arms around you!(oh baby).




With Your Love





Count On Me

Precious love
I'll give it to you
Blue as the sky and deep in the
Eyes of a love so true
Beautiful face
You make me feel
Lite on the stairs and lost in the
Air of a love so real

And you can count on me girl
You can count on my love
Woman
You can count on me baby
You can count on my love to see
You through

Emerald eyes and China perfume
Caught in the wheel and lost in
The feel of a love so soon
Ruby lips
You make my song
Into the night and saved by the lite
Of a love so strong

Chorus: See you thru
....Oooh
You can count on me girl
You can count on my love




Jane

Jane, you say it's all over
For you and me girl
There's a time for love
And a time for lettin' it be baby

Jane, you're playin' a game called
Called "hard to get" by its real name
Makin' believe that you just don't feel the same
Oh Jane

Jane, you're playin' a game
You never can win girl
You're stayin' away so I ask you
"Where you been, baby?"

Like a cat and a mouse (cat and a mouse)
From door to door and-a house to house
Don't you pretend you don't know
What I'm talking about

Were all those nights we spent together, hey hey
Only because you didn't know better
I got to know
Jane, you're playin' a game
You're playin' a game, playin' a game

(Jane, Jane, Jane)
Woah Jane you're playin' a game
But why I don't see
Jane you're playin' for fun
But I play for keeps, yes I do
(Jane, Jane, Jane)
That's a game on me, yeah
(Jane, Jane, Jane)
So plain to see
(Jane, Jane, Jane)
Janie, Janie, Janie, Janie, Janie
(Jane, Jane, Jane)
Why you foolin' with me, me, me




All Night Long

If only the music would keep on playin'
If only I could dance with you
If only I could keep on singin'
All night long, all night long
If only we could dance together
All night long, all night long
If only we could keep this feelin'
Make it last all night long

Waitin' for the next wave
Wonder what's it gonna be
Waitin' for the next
All night long
All night long

whoa oo oh the dawn comes up like thunder

Somebody give me a light
I need a little help through the darkness
Just a little light --- enough to get me home
All night long

Sometimes the music's a doorway
Out of the darkness, into the light
I believe I can make you dream
All night long
All night long

See the ruins of a once mighty castle
A land where the sun casts no shadow
Signs and wonders, the sound of thunder
All night long
All night long

Step into the sky
You won't fall, I'll tell you why
You got to be a sky rider
All night long
All night long

I can read your mind
And I know what you're thinking
I can see your mind just as clear as my own
The pictures I see, they all tell a story
'bout where we've been and where we're goin'
Tonight --- if only we would keep on playin'
Tonight --- if only I could dance with you
Tonight --- if only we could keep on singin'
All night long
All night long

All night long (Tonight)
All night long (keep on singin')
All night long (keep on dancin')
All night long (take me home)
All night long (bring it home)




Freedom at Point Zero

People get ready there's a ship comin
Get ready like a lover
I got a note from the heart of the darkness
The melody isn't over
Steady as steel, I want to take the wheel
'n drive you like a rock n roller
Freedom at Point Zero
'n rock n roll isn't over

One long pull to the top of the mountain now
One long pull and we're into the sky
So many miles I can't count 'em now
Oooh, let me fly -- to the sky

People get ready there's a ship comin
Get ready it's gonna be here soon
I feel a great wind sweepin through the valley
At the first light of the risin moon
Don't look back -- hold steady
Keep your eyes open we're almost ready
Like a Samurai on the edge of the sky
Cold steel in the afternoon

And its a hard world to try and get a piece of
It's a hard world for you and I
I'm goin upstream 'n hunt for a dream
It's right there for you and I
Up in the sky And it's gonna be
All-Right

Great light in the sky tonight
Oooh honey it's burning bright
Come and take me away tonight
It's All-Right
Oooh oooh oooh All-Right

Under every stone -- on every beach
Through every forest and all the trees in all the air
For all time and all space
In every land and every place
In the seas and beyond the sky
Gonna be All-Right

It's a hard world to try and get a piece of
It's a hard world for you and I
I'm goin upstream 'n go for a dream
Right there for you and I
Up in the sky
Just got to reach out and take it
It'll be All-Right
Take it -- It's gonna be All-Right
