Tema: Kenny Loggins - Tekstovi Pesama

"It's About Time"


I shed my skin
And set aside this self-made darkness
'N walk on into the light

I'm sick of this Prison
I been calling my life
I finally found out the gates of hell are locked from the inside
Just like Moses
Headed for the Promised Land
We don't get to know where we're goin'
We only know where we've been

(Hope)
Whever you gotta start, ya start
(Faith)
Whatever you gotta leave, you leave
(Life)
Sometimes you're gonna hit the mark
(Love)
Sometimes you're gonna take the next best thing
(Joy)
Whatever you wanta start, ya start
(Time)
Sometimes you're gonna hit the mark
(Trust)
Sometimes you gotta scream

[Chorus:]
If it's about joy
If it's about life
If it's about love
It's about time we get started
If it's about trust
If it's about hope
If it's about us
It's about time we get started

We don't get forever
We just get now or never
To make the best or the worst of the time that we got
There's power in this groove
And I surrender to the river
It's takin' me to

I'll learn to swim
I'm getting in
I'm getting wet
I may be drownin'
But I ain't dead yet

(Hope)
Whever you gotta start, ya start
(Faith)
Whatever you gotta leave, you leave
(Life)
Sometimes you're gonna hit the mark
(Love)
Sometimes you're gonna take the next best thing
(Joy)
Whatever you wanta start, ya start
(Time)
Sometimes you're gonna hit the mark
(Trust)
Sometimes you gotta scream

[Chorus]

Oh baby
It's all right
You only gotta face yourself
To make it to the other side

Oh baby you don't know what you'll find
'Til you tear down those walls
And make up your mind

[Chorus]

I been tryin'
Prayin' cryin
Lord, what's it gonna take
Step by step you go on
Knowin' that you hold on
It's just about time

"It Must Be Imagination"


When the feeling isn't right
They say you see it in a lovers eye
But I'm wide awake tonight
'N I'm looking for a reason why
It doesn't show
Still somehow I know
Tell me that it just ain't so
Say I made the whole thing up
It must be imagination
Why can't I forget it
God, you'd think I'd know better

It must be imagination
Gone completely out of my mind
It must be imagination
Tearin' me apart
'N breakin' my heart
You can say what is real
You can tell me if I'm in a dream
'Cause I know what I feel
But I don't know what to believe
Turn on the night light
Even if it takes us all night
I gotta be sure by daylight
If I've made this whole thing up

It must be imagination
Tell me if I'm right
'Cause it's changing my life
It must be imagination
Everybody knows
There ain't no way to fight it

It must be imagination
Breakin' my heart
'N tearing me apart
If I'm only dreamin'
Then I'm cryin' in my sleep
You should be shakin' me
Why ain't you wakin' me up?

It must be imagination
God I must be losin' my mind
It must be imagination
Does anybody know
Is there anyway to fight it?

It must be imagination
All in my mind, all in my mind
It must be imagination
If you wanna go, I just got to know

It must be imagination
Oooh tell me what's the problem
Why you wanna go on breakin' my heart?

"Just Breathe"


I prayed for something I could never understand
The Sword of Shiva to deliver me to unimagined lands.
And there you were

I asked for something that could catch me by surprise
To leap into the belly of the beast to rip me up and bring me out alive
And there you were

Into your eyes
I'm falling rain
Into your eyes
A hurricane
Into your eyes
I'm coming home
I'm holding on
I'm letting go

Oh, I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All my future below
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Then you whisper that all you need of me
Is Just to Breathe

Initiation to the wisdom of the heart
An invocation know to humble men
And tear their worlds apart
And there you were

I prayed every night n'day for something to believe
Some brand of magic that could lift me up and bring me to my knees
And there you were

Into your eyes
I'm falling rain
Into your eyes
A hurricane
Into your eyes
I'm coming home
I'm holding on
I'm letting go

Oh, I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All my future below
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Sworn to love you as long as I shall breathe

In every other lover's eyes
Keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, all your life
In the line of duty we can never do enough
I am surrendered
I am ascended on love

I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All of my future before my eyes and
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Come and take me home

Oh my father's son
New reborn as the chosen one
Now he kneels at your feet
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Come and take me home.

"Junkanoo Holiday (Fallin'-Flyin')"


We've got a bell
We've got a drum
Junkanoo has begun
Feel that Goom bay beat
Giving life to your dancing feet
Everybody's on holiday
We'll dance the night away
Now you know it's Junkanoo
Come on, let's go.

"Lady Luck"


Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, a mastermind,
Or some lucky lady's design.

Oh, what the devil, it's fun,
His lady luck was his one companion,
And by the silver and gold,
His heart had been bought and bound.
But he chanced to fall in new love,
He kissed her and he cut the tie,
And kissed his lucky lady goodbye.

Oh, spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like you've been with me in life?
If I leave you for a lover,
Would you leave me far behind?

You should've known from the start,
She'd take no part in a love triangle.
You have to be her's alone,
And go it on your own.
'Cause if you've found a new love,
Lady Luck is gonna step aside.
So kiss your lucky lady goodbye.

[Instrumental]

Spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like you've been with me in life?
If I leave you for an hour,
Would you leave me far behind?

Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, was a mastermind,
Or some lucky lady's,
Or some jealous lady,
Kiss your lucky lady goodbye.
Don't pass this way again, goodbye.
Don't pass this way again, goodbye.

"Keep The Fire"


There's a river in
Evening ember glow
And you're wishing you could see
How far it flows
Rolling on to an endless sea
You'd be well on your way
If you could only set sail.

But dreams can drift away
And sails can fill with doubt
Where's your vision
If the embers flicker out?
Don't let it slip from view

The horizons are waiting
Your river is fading

[Chorus:]
So keep the fire burning tonight
See just what comes into sight
Don't take forever
Take it through the night

And believe the sun
Will rise with the dawn
That's all you need to go on
But for tonight
Just keep the fire burning bright

I will never need to ask
"What have I done?"
Comes a moment when it's clear
There's only one.
Oh, whatever you need of me
I've made up my mind
I'll give you more than you've asked for

And there are those who can foresee
Where we will go
All the future...
I don't really want to know
Only that you'll be here with me.

While the embers still glow
We'll be safe till tomorrow.

"Let The Pendulum Swing"


Let the pendulum swing.
Let the old guard surrender
It is a new day, a new world,
A new language I wish to speak
The language of love
May I have the words I need to speak my truth,
To translate my heart and my vision
To my beloved and his children
To all who come to sit at our table
Or walk with us through the market place
Or pray with us by the water

May I have the plain poetry to tell them how I feel
Or why there is pain,
If the answers are mine to know.
And if they are, I ask the Spirit to let me share them
With a light heart, with laughter,
Wth no expectation, with humility
But for the grace of Thee, go I.
May I know my innocence
Every moment of every day
May I be a child forever
Intoxicated by hot sand, cool winds, by love
By my own communication to the Spirit.
May my aliveness always be as loud
When I make love, as when I cry
May I see my own reflection in the mirror
And smile

My love,
You are my teacher
And I surrender to your heart
The purest heart I've ever seen
Today I give you everything that is mine to give
My truth
All my innocence
And all my heart
I am yours
Let the dance begin.

"Leap Of Faith"


He opened the door and walked away,
Sometimes a selfless step is all it takes,
From the mountain, he can watch it all burn,
Welcome friend, to the point of no return

Once in a life, you can find a time to see,
And you get to turn it down, turn around, temporary sanity
And then the mountain disappears without a trace,
All it took, was a sudden leap of faith

(Homeward, let your spirit rise,)
Darling, I'm waiting for you
(Homeward, one step at a time)
(Homeward, watch it like a child)
When will I reach the ocean
(I'm filled with mixed emotion)
(I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you)
I'm waiting for you baby
(I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you)

How and why?
And the bough broke back to sea(?)
He was overcome, by how it happened all so easily,
And as he stood there, with the moonlight on his face,
He was stunned by a sudden leap of faith.

Darling, I'm waiting for you
(Homeward, one step at a time)
(Homeward, watch it like a child)
When will I reach the ocean,
Moving in slow motion now
(You know it's the truth)
(You've done all a man can do)

[Long instrumental, scat break]

Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watch it like a child,

Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watch it like a child,
Homeward

"Long Tailed Cat"


A long tailed cat sitting by the old rocking chair
Now he don't realize that there's a danger there
But he don't care no rock 'n' roll chair is gonna boogie on his day
'Cause when his tail took a low down, syncopate, yeah

I'm going down to Orleans town, to get a pound of feed
Be back home in just 'bout a half of week, yeah
You may be a symphony, babe, but I believe in song
Got a catchy melody so you can sing along

Oh, they say, you know they're talking bout the girls that work up town
I don't realize the amount of danger now
No swinging tail, no rock 'n' roll girl is gonna boogie woogie on my day
'Cause I made my time on a Dixie holiday, yeah

I'm going down to Orleans town on a Dixie holiday
To get myself a tonk of that harmony, yeah
You may be a symphony, baby but I believe in song
It's got a catchy melody so you can sing along

Everybody sing along, along
Don't know what you sing along
Well you're gonna sing along, along

All you sing is oh my, oh my my
Your daddy's getting older and the cows are going dry
Gotta go bye, go bye bye
On a Dixie holiday

Oh my, oh my my
Your daddy's getting older and the cows are going dry
You gotta go bye, go bye bye
On a Dixie holiday

Oh my, oh my my
Your daddy's getting older and the cows are going dry
You gotta go bye, go bye bye
On a Dixie holiday

Oh my, oh my my
Daddy's getting older and the cows are going dry
You gotta go bye, go bye bye
On a Dixie holiday

Oh, we're leaving on a Dixie holiday
Heading for the Dixie holiday, yeah yeah, yeah

"Let There Be Love"


Love can be a game for two
But a real love
Take ya more than a lttle bit of time

Ya gotta keep on makin' it
Though your arms are achin'
Your knees are shakin'
Your heart keeps breakin' down
That's what life is about

Oh wo
Let there be music
Let there be candlelight
Let there be love
Let there be young hearts
Sendin' up hungry sparks
Let there be love

Life
Like a smile in the Big Boy's eye
He lit a little light
'N brought it all in, in under seven days

He said "I'm makin' em, a man and woman
I'll let run but before my work is through
There's still one thing that I got to do"

Let there be music
Let there be candlelight
Let there be love
Let there be young hearts
Sendin' up hungry sparks
Let there be love

You wonder how it happens
You question if there'll ever come a day
We'll get your head out of your way

Deep in the heart a' me
The music, it plays the beat
Its like a part a' me is turnin', turnin', turnin'
Don'cha try to defeat it
'Cause I know ya just can't beat it
Somethin' inside a' me is burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',bu rnin'

Oh wo
Let there be music
Let there be candlelight
Let there be love
Let there be young hearts
Sendin' up hungry sparks
Let there be love
