Livin’ Thing – ELO
Sailin’ away on the crest of a wave
It’s like magic
Oh and rollin’ and ridin’ and slippin’ & sliding
It’s magic
CHORUS
And you, and your sweet desire,
You took me, ohhh higher and higher baby,
It’s a livin’ thing,
It’s a terrible thing to lose
It’s a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose.
I’m takin’ a dive. (echo) Dive.
Making believe this is what you’ve conceived
From your worst day, (I’m takin a dive)
Oh moving in line when you look back in time
To the first day, (I’m taken I’m taken)
And you and your sweet desire,
(Don’t you do it , don’t you do it),
you took me ohh, higher and higher baby
It’s a living thing,
It’s a terrible thing to lose,
It’s a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
And I’m takin a dive. Off the stage. Hey!! (Echo)
Takin’ a dive ‘cos you can’t halt the slide
Floating downstream, (I’m takin a dive)
Ah so let her go don’t start spoiling the show
It’s a bad dream, (I’m takin’ , I’m takin’)
And you and your sweet desire
(Don’t you do it , don’t you do it)
You took me ohh higher and higher baby
It’s a livin’ thing,
It’s a terrible thing to lose
It’s a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose.(x2)

Bulletproof – Blue Rodeo
Tell me one more time again
Just like I didn’t hear you
Like I don’t know what’s going through your mind, I do
I play the same game too
I know it’s hard to stop
Even when you want to
Now the moon lights up your face
And I can see you’re crying
You never liked me to see you cry, it’s true
I’ve done some crying too
The hardest part about it
Is trying to hide it from you
It must be great to be so strong
Never needed anybody’s help to carry on
But we’re so scared of the silence and the tricks that we use
We’re careful and we’re cunning, but we’re easily bruised
I don’t want to lie about it
I’m not bulletproof
Well I finally found the way
To hide from all your glances
Til the waiting game we play is through
I can, but what’s the use
When all I really want to do is hide out with you
It would be great to be so strong
You never needed anybody’s help to get along
We’re so scared of the silence and the language that we use
Yeah we’re careful and we’re cunning, but we’re easily bruised
I don’t want to kid about it
I’m not bulletproof
Tell me one more time again
I guess I didn’t hear you
I don’t know all the secrets that you keep inside
I tried the same thing too
But they all come pouring out of me when I’m talking to you
It must be great to be so strong
You never needed anybody else’s help to carry on
But I’m not waking up each morning with forgiveness I can use
No I’m careless, and I’m cruel, but I’m still easily bruised
I’m so tired of lying about it
I’m not bulletproof
No, and I’m not going to lie about it
I’m not bulletproof

Well I’ve heard lots of people say
They’re gonna settle down
You don’t see their faces
And they don’t come around
Well I’m not that way
I got to move along
I like to drink and to dance all night
Comes to a fix not afraid to fight
You got that right
Said, you got that right
Sure got that right
Seems so long I been out on my own
Travel light and I’m always alone
Guess I was born with a travellin’ bone
When my times up, I’ll hold my own
You won’t find me in an old folks home
You got that right
Well you got that right
Said, you got that right
Sure got that right
I tried everything in my life
Things I like I try ‘em twice
You got that right
Sure got that right
Travellin’ around the world, just singing my song
I got to go, Lord I can’t stay long
Here comes that ol’ travellin’ jones once again
I like to drink and to dance all night
Comes to a fix not afraid to fight
You got that right
Said, you got that right
Well you got that right
Sure got that right
Ten Years Gone October 28, 2006

“Ten Years Gone”
Then as it was, then again it will be
An’ though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn’t have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it’s got so far to go
Changes fill my time, baby, that’s alright with me
In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be
Did you ever really need somebody, And really need ‘em bad
Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
‘Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would
Through the eyes an’ I sparkle, Senses growing keen
Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn’t have to grow
We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul
Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
Never thought I’d see your face the way it used to be
Oh darlin’, oh darlin’
I’m never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
Holdin’ on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin’ on, ten years gone
