Blind Eye-03.-1972 - (The Magician's Birthday) ------- " Free Me" (Hensley)
Why should I worry that you might not love me You're not the only love I ever had Your sweet memory will always comfort me So why should I be feeling sad
Far as I can tell You knew so well I was always at the end of the line I loved you as much as any man can But not enough to make you mine
So long easy rider I know I'll miss you for awhile But sooner or later I know that I'll forget you Free me somebody free me won't you Free me, free me from your spell
We let a good love die We let it pass us by Though you try to keep me hangin' on But with all this doubt It'll never work out So tomorrow I'll be travellin' on --------------------- "Blind Eye" (Hensley)
Stranger than the sunrise Darker than the night Fiercer than a rainstorm This is man's delight This is man's delight.
Weaker than a moment And hot as any fire Blinder than the blind eye This is man's desire This is man's desire.
I ran to a place in the open sea Where I pledged my life to the sun But when I woke up one day the sun Had gone.
I ran to a place in the open sea Where I pledged my whole life to the sun It was good for a while, I could laugh, I could smile But when I woke up one day the sun Had gone. Had gone had gone had gone had gone
So what of my meaning What am I trying to say What of my caution ...I'm a man anyway, I'm a man anyway I'm a man anyway, I'm a man anyway I'm a man anyway, I'm a man anyway. (repeat to fade) ------------------ " Choices" (Williams)
I was walking alone thru a side show With passion and pain on each side. Something inside me was calling For a chance to stay alive.
At the time I didn't know what was calling As my head was buried in grief. Today I heard what was crying. My FREEDOM calling me
And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain.
When I got to the end of the side show And looked back to where I had been, My eyes filled with teardrops of loneliness For the ones who will never be free
And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain.
I thought of the children in the side show As they wandered around so confused. Some day they'll make their decision But which one will they choose?
And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain. ---------------------------------- "Illusion" (Hensley)
In a forest known as heartbreak In a clearing in the wood 'Cross a pathway called confusion Toward the garden of delight
You'll reach the river of desire And meekly try to cross it While the valley of love keeps avoiding you Because it's only an illusion
Upon the hill of high ideals You begin to wonder if it's real You are reaching sleep's oasis You begin to wonder how you feel
But it happens so quickly it doesn't fit Into your scenes Tossin' and turnin' the star of so many scenes It's only an illusion
