 Eyes for Jo


Oh, you better think about it baby
Oh, no, you better think on it now

And if you say "why me"?
Just who else do you think it could be?

You know, the first time
I looked in your eyes I knew it
Me for you and only you for me

Jo, the people told me I was crazy
Oh, no, they said, "you're in for it now"

But I knew what to do
This affair concerns just me and you...

The time had come for me to realize life's beauty
Here it is, now, right before my eyes

Nothing's Perfect

Some say ... no fear
They don't know

Life's short ... time's dear
Please don't go

We do the best that we can
But we go round and round and try it again ... yeah
That's the way life is
And why nothing's perfect

We get up and we get down
And this old world just spins around and around
That's the way life is
And why nothing's perfect

Just the other day
Life was so grand
Then you had to go away
Turning my dreams to sand

Is this just the start of a new day
Or will I be torn apart now that you've gone away

Some say ... no fear
They don't know

Life's short ... time's dear
Please don't go

The Time You Take

Won't you listen to me brother
Tomorrow may be too late
And just what do think sister
You knew it would be so great

CHORUS:
What if it's gone
Each moment that you thought would be precious why only a dream

It's the time, the time you take right now to find the answer
You've got the answer

Hope is what you give me mother
Don't talk to me of fate
Always planning for the next day
Well baby you take the cake

CHORUS

Now and now you say you're sorry
Yeah oh so sorry that you didn't try
And it's too bad why you didn't listen
Now it's too late and you've got to fly

But baby life is only what you make it
And you make it when you live now
For every rhyme there's got to be a reason

CODA:
But baby life is only what you make it
And you make it when you live now

Leaving Camelot Behind

All the stars my love in the sky
Now have gone goodbye

We have laughed my love now we cry
Now you're gone goodbye

Joy ... pain ... hope
To hold you once more
Why must you go

Why must you go
