LYRICS
01 VENTURA HIGHWAY (Dewey Bunnell)
Chewing on a piece of grass
Walking down the road
Tell me, how long you gonna stay here, Joe?
Some people say this town don’t look good in snow
You don’t care, I know
Ventura highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You’re gonna go I know
Cause the free wind is blowin’ through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air
Wishin’ on a falling star
Waitin’ for the early train
Sorry boy, but I’ve been hit by purple rain
Aw, come on, Joe, you can always
Change your name
Thanks a lot, son, just the same
Ventura highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You’re gonna go I know
Cause the free wind is blowin’ through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air
02 NOTICE ME (Ida Sand)
I put my best dress on for you
I try to be fun and clever too
I am the best that I can be
But you don´t even notice me
I look at your way just to meet your eyes
I try to act cool and I try to act wise
I am the best that I can be
But you don´t even notice me

I wish you could see the good in me
That you´d think of me too in the way that I do
I wish you could see that you and I could be
Combined in total harmony
I know that you see me as a friend
But I will love you until the end
I really wish that I could find
A way to change your mind
I wish you could see the good in me
That you´d think of me too in the way that I do
I wish you could see that you and I could be
Combined in total harmony
03 THE WEIGHT (Robbie Robertson)
I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead;
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, and put the load on me.
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, and put the load on me
Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, and put the load on me.
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, and put the load on me.
04 MY BIGGEST FEAR (Ida Sand)
Let me down easy
Please take it slow
Let me down easy
Don´t let your true feelings show
Don´t be to harsh but don´t lead me on
cause my poor heart still thinks
that it has won

No use denying the way that it is
The way you´re not feeling linger in your kiss
I can admit that it´s not the same
We don´t even know now who is to blame
The words you´re not saying is shown in your eyes
I know that you´re only tryin´ to be wise
But please don´t lock all your feelings inside
Now that I know so don´t try to hide
Let me down easy
Shed me no tear
Cause loosing you is
My biggest fear
05 AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME (Ida Sand)
Words unspoken sound of pouring rain
Silence broken when you call my name
Taking part of here and now
Breathless moments
I can say all the things I´ve been wanting to say
If you only ask me to
I can lay down beside you and enter my heart before I give it to you
Can end up in silence and stay for a while
Later on I´ll be on my way
As long as you love me, as long as you love me, as long as you love me
Close together yet so far away
Letting go of all the games we play
Sleep in beauty now my dear
Know that I am here
I can say all the things I´ve been wanting to say
If you only ask me to
I can lay down beside you and enter my heart before I give it to you
Can end up in silence and stay for a while
Later on I´ll be on my way
As long as you love me, as long as you love me, as long as you love me
06 DEVIL´S GAME (Ida Sand)
Can you try to listen to what I have to say
Please have patience before you walk away
Can you call me ignorant after all the time we spent
Though this crazy circumstance
Life is truly bittersweet
Sometimes knocks me off my feet
It´s a Devils game
I tried to walk away
I seemed impossible
It felt wrong what can I say
Love is never rational
It´s time to take a stand
This is too unbearable
This wasn´t something I planned

Yet, it´s unforgivable
Lately you´ve been so distracted
Busy, working over I felt rejected
Am I the only one to blame
Wouldn´t you have done the same
If you were feeling lonely
I did something very wrong
I saw it coming all along
Please forgive me baby
I tried to walk away
I seemed impossible
It felt wrong what can I say
Love is never rational
It´s time to take a stand
This is too unbearable
This wasn´t something I planned
Yet, it´s unforgivable
07 HEART OF GOLD (Neil Young)
I want to live,
I want to give
I've been a miner
For a heart of gold.
It's these expressions
I never give
That keeps me searching
For a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
Keeps me searching
For a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean
For a heart of gold
I've been in my mind,
It's such a fine line
That keeps me searching
For a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
Keeps me searching
For a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
Keep me searching
For a heart of gold
You keep me searching
And I'm growing old
Keep me searching
For a heart of gold
Keep me searching
And I´m growing old

08 MANIC DEPRESSION (Jimi Hendrix)
Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want but I just don’t know
How to get it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is catchin’ my soul
Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It’s all the same
When it’s over
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress,
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
Well, I think Ill go and turn myself off,
And go way down
Really ain’t no use in me hanging around
In your kinda scene
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
09 LOVERMAN (Jimmy Davies, Roger Ramirez, James Sherman)
I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Loverman, oh where can you be?
The night is cold and I'm so alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me
But no one to love me
Loverman, oh, where can you be?
I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me
Strange as it seems
Someday we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet
Little things in my ear
Hugging and kissing
Oh, what I've been missing
Loverman, oh where can you be?

10 WHO´S GONNA HELP BROTHER GET FURTHER
(Elvis Costello, Allan Toussaint)
We may seem happy like everything's alright
But from the outside looking in
Everything's uptight
But deep down inside we're covering up the pain
It's an old thing
It's a soul thing
But it's a real thing
Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother
Who's gonna help him get further
One another
One another
There's old dude standing on the corner
Waiting for a fox to pass
The only thing he's got to go by
Is this is where he saw her last
And there's old John, two dollars in his pocket
Talking loud and thinks he's rich
And look for little fool, too cool to go to school
Get a job, in two days he quits
Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother
Who's gonna help him get further
One another
Is that the truth?
One another
One another
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mama get up early, early in the morning
Papa's already gone
Going out a-working for half of what he's worth now
You know that it's wrong
What happen to the Liberty Bell I heard so much about?
Did it really ding-dong?
(Ding dong)
It must have dinged wrong
(It didn't ding long)
Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother
Who's gonna help him get further
One another
Is that the truth?
One another
One another
One another
11 REDEMPTION SONG (Bob Marley)
Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
Cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it’s just a part of it:
We’ve got to fulfil de book.
Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
12 TRUE LOVE (Ida Sand)
People say that we look good together
That you bring out a special glow in me
I have a feeling this could last forever
That this is the way it should be
Oh you make me feel so very good inside
There´s no doubt in my mind
You bring out the very best of me, boy
Now I know that I´ve found
A true love –I´m so glad that I can call you my own
A true love –Yeah, no longer will I be alone
A true love –I can feel that this was meant to be
A true love – Maybe we can start a family.
The way you look at me just touches my soul
Yes, you make me wanna loose control
I give myself to you with all that I have
I am totally yours
A true love –I´m so glad that I can call you my own
A true love –Yeah, no longer will I be alone
A true love –I can feel that this was meant to be
A true love – Maybe we can start a family.
