Take care! Take care! in everything under sun Be aware! Be aware! but don't close your heart to anyone We're all longing to be free from the blight of misery this world tearing at the seams is just a phantom and a dream Saint Peter in chains walking from the subterrane can we rise from the ground alive in hope that does abound? All who are longing to be free from the blight of misery a bubble floating in a stream this world's a phantom and a dream Sail on! Sail on! through storms just like the watermen We long! We Long! to learn to to love the howling wind Prisoners longing to be free left to wander mystery a world that's rarely what it seems like a phantom and a dream We're all longing to be free from the blight of misery this world tearing at the seams is just a phantom and a dream Take care! Take care! in everything under sun Be aware! Be aware! but don't close your heart to anyone Take care! Take care! in everything under sun Be aware! Be aware! but don't close your heart to anyone

about

A song a month, no matter what. Ideally it will be something newly recorded (regardless of how it comes out). If not, then it will be something long lost or unreleased. Just like when you used to get 12 records . . . tapes . . . CDs for a penny, except you don't need to use a fake name, and we won't send a collection agency after you when you don't pay us for Sade's "Smooth Operator."
