Wonderworld
(Hensley)
We freely speak of dreams
We marvel at what they conceal
But in my wonderworld
Each sleeping vision is so real
So I believe and hope
That all the things I see
May one day bring such truth and peace
As we can feel
Free from this waking world
Deep in sleep's mystery
My will is free to wander
Free to wander carelessly
At times it's not so far from what
We call reality
And at times I know I wonder
If it all could come true
Oh Mr. Wonderworld
Don't be afraid
'Cause dreams were made
Were made to dim the light
The torment day can bring
And leave you free
To laugh aloud and hear
Your heart bells ring
Oh, oh, Mr. Wonderworld, Wonderworld
Oh Mr. Wonderworld
Don't be afraid
'Cause your dreams were made
They were made to dim the light
The torment day can bring
And leave you free
To laugh aloud and hear
Your heart bells ring
Oh, oh, Mr. Wonderworld, Mr. Wonderworld
Mr. Wonderworld
Suicidal Man
(Box/Byron/Hensley/Kerslake/Thain)
Waiting by the window
Staring at my shadow
Not believing what I'd seen
Touching but not feeling
And wondering in what I was dealing
And not knowing where I'd been
So I began walking
And to myself I was talking
But didn't know which way to go
Then I found a direction
And now I needed some action
But I should have just said no
Should have said no
Why won't you help me or give me hand
'Cause I'm close to becoming a suicidal man
What I need is someone with a definite plan
For I've waited for just about as long as I can
Suicidal man, suicidal, suicidal
Suicidal man
So on my travels
Still with all my troubles
I found someone who cared
The answer was so easy
That all she did to please me
Was to say a problem's smaller when it's shared
He was a suicidal man, he was a suicidal man
He was a suicidal man, he was a suicidal man
Who was he, suicidal man, who was he, suicidal man
suicidal man, suicidal man

The Shadows And The Wind
(Hensley)
Oh they're movin' in again
Hidden by the shadows and the wind
But we'll just wait awhile and then
We'll show 'em all that this time we ain't giving in
Ain't giving in
Without a care they sweep aside our dreams
To try and make way for their own
No more should we surrender to their schemes
It's time to stand and show them we are not alone
Time has changed us all
We have our minds
Life has taught us
We all have our love
And it's time to use it
Oh boy, use it, whoa
Well nature gave us colour, day and night
So if you've really got a reason then you better be right
The seasons of the year show spring and fall
But there's nothing in the world that's says it's right to fight
Time has changed us all
We have our minds
Life has taught us
We all have our love
Why don't we use it
C'mon and use it
Why don't we use it
C'mon and use it, whoa
La, la la la laaa
La, la la la laaa

So Tired
(Box/Byron/Hensley/Kerslake/Thain)
Well I've been in the road for a year or more
And I done a lot of things I never did before
Now I want everyone to listen to my song
And you can tell me when you've heard it if you think I'm wrong
'Cause I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
Yes I'm so tired
And I'm so uninspired
Please help me
Well I've seen 'em rise and I've seen 'em fall
And I use to think that I was having a ball
But I was kiddin' myself for a long long time
But now I got myself a spoon - I'm feeling fine
But I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
Yes I'm so tired
And I'm so uninspired
Wontcha please help me
Where can you go, where can you go
When there is no-one to show a guiding light
What did you say, what did you say
Have you been thinking about me day and night
'Cause I'm so tired
Of everybody staring at me
And I'm so, so tired
And I'm so uninspired
Please help me
Wontcha please help me
(adlib vocals to end)
The Easy Road
(Hensley)
If you're looking for a place you can fly together
And you're really afraid of what you're leaving behind
Take the easiest road but take care my brother
For you'll never find peace with a troubled mind
Far better to love each other
Than to worry so deeply 'bout the place you're in
And far better to kiss her softly
Than looking back on a love
You'll never have again
Time's as fickle as the sky in winter
And two hearts always were better than one
And love has the wings of a tireless angel
She'll stay beside you till the day is done
La la la la, La la la la
Far better to love each other
Than to worry so deeply 'bout the place you're in
And far better to kiss her softly
Than looking back on a love
You'll never have again
You'll never have again
No no no no never again
You'll never have again
Something Or Nothing
(Box/Hensley/Thain)
There's never a day when I've got nothing to do
'Cause something to me might mean nothing to you
So don't, don't, don't, don't look at me strangely now
We'll find the line that's in the middle and run
Something
We've got to run
Something or nothing
You say you love to spend days, but I will save mine
Waiting for the sun in your eyes to turn the rivers to wine
But don't, don't, don't, don't look at me strangely now
We're gonna find the line that's in the middle and run
Something, we've gotta run, something or nothing, run run run
Something, something or nothing
C'mon there
You say you love to spend days, but I will save mine
Waiting for the sun in your eyes to turn the rivers to wine
But don't, don't, don't, don't look at me strangely now
We'll find the line that's in the middle and run
Something, something or nothing
It's gotta be something, something or nothing
Something, something or nothing
We're looking for something, something or nothing
