Thats a scary garden name

Just passing through,with some lyrics for you x

Lovers with their arms entwined
Silhouettes against the light
A warm bed is waiting as they head home
After staying up all night
For them the city is magic
That's all they've ever known
I wish I could find the magic
But I'm scared and I'm feeling so alone

Oh, city streets
The stories that they tell
Oh, city streets
They can be heaven, they can be hell

Carole King

River wind is icy
Chills run through my bones
Tides of life are ebbing out
Between the cobblestones
The streets are on fire
With the burning sunrise
And over the water I look in vain
For love in someone's eyes

Oh, city streets
The stories that they tell
Oh, city streets
They can be heaven, they can be hell

Winter-colored morning
Gray and dirty brown
Reflecting the mood I'm in
Despair is all around
I long for sweet oblivion
To take me from my pain
Maybe bring me dreams of hope and faith
So I can break this chain

Oh, city streets
The stories that they tell
Oh, city streets
They can be heaven, they can be hell

Lovers with their arms entwined
Silhouettes against the light
A warm bed is waiting as they head home
After staying up all night
For them the city is magic
That's all they've ever known
I wish I could find the magic
But I'm scared and I'm feeling so alone

Oh, city streets
The stories that they tell
Oh, city streets
They can be heaven, they can be hell

Carole King

Although you see the world different than me
Sometimes I can touch upon the wonders that you see
All the new colors and pictures you've designed
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child of mine

Child of mine, child of mine
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child of mine

You don't need direction, you know which way to go
And I don't want to hold you back, I just want to watch you grow
You're the one who taught me you don't have to look behind
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child of mine

Child of mine, child of mine
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child of mine

Nobody's gonna kill your dreams
Or tell you how to live your life
There'll always be people to make it hard for a while
But you'll change their heads when they see you smile

The times you were born in may not have been the best
But you can make the times to come better than the rest
I know you will be honest if you can't always be kind
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child of mine

Child of mine, child of mine,
Oh yes, sweet darling
So glad you are a child

You and I
We ought to try to face the fact
The things we thought had value
They've all been taken back
We've been losing track of time
But time's no easy mark
I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need is a change of heart

I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need's a change of heart

You and me
It seems that we've been holding out
The things that once held meaning
We're no longer sure about
We've been moving down the line
Losing what time we've got
And since you say you've had a change in mind
Why don't you try a little change of heart

I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need's a change of heart

Now I'm not asking anymore of you
Than I ask of myself
Oh, but when I say we need a new approach
Well, I don't mean to someone else

Change, they say, it's the only way we grow
Oh, but the change we're showing
Let me tell you I just don't know
Seems to me that we could find some other way to start
Beginning with a change, a change in mind
And ending with a change, a change of heart
Oh, begin it with a change, a

Meet me on the highway
Meet me on the road
As long as you've got to travel
Don't you want someone to help you carry your load

First time out is a heady feeling
White clouds under my feet
Sailin' along like a south wind
Over fields of whispering wheat
Thinkin' alone on a Thursday morning
Of peace and love and war
I still don't have any answer
But I don't get high anymore

Meet me on the highway
Meet me on the road
As long as you've got to travel
Don't you want someone to help you carry your load

Some folks are forever movin'
Some folks gotta be still
Don't let it get you--there's joy in either
So do what you will
Everyone knows it's the same old feeling
Worlds below the sea
Just you and me and easy
Is where I want to be

Carole King

Sometimes I'm tired and I wonder
what's so all-fired important
About being someplace at some time
Oh, but I don't really mind
Cause I could be on Easy Street
and I know that
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

I guess it gets to everyone,
you think you're not having fun
And you wonder what you're doing
playing the games you play
Hey, well, it's true what they say
If ou want to feel complete
don't you know that
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

A friend of mine once told me
And I know he knows all about feelin' down
He said everything good in life
you've got to pay for
But feelin' good is waht you're
paving the way for

So, don't let it get you down, my friend
though it seems the blues will never end
On this you can depend, they always do
And I can tell you that it's true
it's a feeling that can't be beat
And you've got to do it
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

Carole King

If you read the papers you may see
History in the making
You'll read what they say life is all about
They say it's there for the taking
Yeah, but you should really check it out
If you want to know what's shaking

But don't tell me about the things you've heard
Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

I know it's often true -- sad to say
We have been unkind to one another
Tell me how many times has the golden rule
Been applied by man to his brother
I believe if I really looked at what's going on
I would lose faith I never could recover

So don't tell me about the things you've heard
Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

Maybe I'm living
With my head in the sand
I just want to see people giving
I want to believe in my fellow man
Yes, I want to believe

Carole King

Everyone comes from one father, one mother
So why do we complicate our lives so much
By being at war with each other

Maybe I'm crazy but I don't understand it
Why do we seem to vote to dig more holes
It's such a waste of planet

There must be a reason that I can't see
Maybe somebody else knows better than me

All I know is everyone else is a sister or a brother
So we've got to look around again and stop
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other

We've got to look around again and stop
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other

Carole King

You've got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes, you will
That you're beautiful as you feel

Waiting at the station with a workday wind a-blowing
I've got nothing to do but watch the passers-by
Mirrored in their faces I see frustration growing
And they don't see it showing, why do I?

You've got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes, you will
That you're beautiful as you feel

I have often asked myself the reason for sadness
In a world where tears are just a lullaby
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness
Maybe not, oh, but we can only try

You've got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes, you will
That you're beautiful as you feel

Carole King
