Nobody Else In The World But You
(Don Henley/Jai Winding/Stan Lynch)
You live in a house of mirrors
Reflecting your splendid isolation
You have so much of everything
Except for true consideration
The way you dance
The way you walk
The way you drive
The way you talk
The way you eat

Nobody`s Business - Don Henley[Songtekst]
Nobody's Business
I went out in the darkness
Just searching for someplace to be
Wasn't looking for trouble
I guess it was looking for me
And I knew I was wasting my time
But it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
I was taking some comfort
I needed a break from the rain

Shakey Ground
Lady luck and the four leaf clover

my life was one special occasion
till u leave me damp in the situation
Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down

Shangri-La
Every day's a new day
That's what I've been told
Try to hold your head high
The world runs hot and cold
It's hard to follow footprints
In the shifting sand
Another thirsty rider
Behind the caravan
You had no idea
just what was waiting out there
You never thought you'd carryShe`s On The Zoom - Don Henley[Songtekst]
She's on the Zoom
Well she got up every morning and she waited in the cold
Got on the stinking yellow school bus and did what she was told
And she stared out the window, all the way down to high school.
She went to home economics just like all the other girls
Making chicken a la king and peSunset Grill - Don Henley[Songtekst]
Let's go down to the Sunset Grill
we can watch the working girls go by
watch the "basket people" walk around and mumble
and stare out at the auburn sky
there's an old man there from the Old World
to him, it's all the same
calls all his customers by name
Down at the Sunset Grill
DTalking To The Moon - Don Henley[Songtekst]
Talking to the Moon
Talking to the Moon
In the hot September sun down in Texas
Sucked the streams bone dry
Turned to roads to dust
In the sleepy little towns down in Texas,
the shades are all pulled down;
the streets are all rolled up.
And the only thing that breaks the silence
Are The Boys Of Summer - Don Henley[Songtekst]
[Verse 1]
Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home
[Chorus 1]
But I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back andThe Genie - Don Henley[Songtekst]
The Genie
(Don Henley/Stan Lynch/Stuart Brawley)
Is this what you wanted?
Did you even think twice?
Didn't they tell you that anything that feels thi sgood
Comes with a price
It gave you such a rush
Now you think you've had enough
It's not that easy to walk away
This is the hard stuffThe Last Worthless Evening - Don Henley[Songtekst]
The Last Worthless Evening
I know you broke up with him
And your heart's still on the shelf
It's been over two years for me
And I'm still not quite myself
You can't be with someone new
And you can't go back to him
You're beginning to realize
That it's sink or swim
I see you around sometThe Unclouded Day - Don Henley[Songtekst]
The Unclouded Day
O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies
O they tell me of a home far away
O they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of a place where my friends
have gone
O they tell me of that land far away

Them and Us
One finger on the button
one finger up his nose
Johnny's in some cornfield
The Early Warning Blows
Bigger is better
More is more
Look up, America!
Gonna even up the score
Get ready boys
Third times a charm
Don't need no sweater
It's gonna keep you warm

(Don Henley/Stan Lynch)
From the Arizona desert
To the Salisbury Plain
Lights on the horizon
Patterns on the grain
Anxious eyes turned upward
Clutching souvenirs
Carrying our highest hopes and our darkest fears
They swear there was an accident ba
Through Your Hands - Don Henley[Songtekst]
Through Your Hands
You were dreamin'
On a park bench
'bout a broad highway somewhere
When the music from the carillon
Seemed to hurl your heart out there
Past the scientific darkness
Past the fireflies that float
To an angel bending down
To wrap you in his warmest coat
And you ask

Walkaway Joe
Mama told her baby,
"Girl, take it real slow."
Girl told her mama,
"Hey, I really gotta go.
"He's waitin' in the car."
Mama said,
"Girl, you won't get far."
This is the story of an average Jane,
Ninety miles an hour down a lover's lane

We were watchin' tv...watchin'tv
In Tiananmen Square
lost my baby there
My yellow rose
And her bloodstained clothes
She was a short order pastry chef
In a Dim Sum dive on the Yangtze tideway
She had shiny hair
She was the daughter of an engiWorkin' It - Don Henley[Songtekst]
Ah, it’s open season here my friend
It always is; it always has been
Welcome, welcome to the U.S.A.
We’re partying fools in the autumn of our heyday

You Better Hang Up
Out here in the country where the weather gets so mean She thinks about the places that she ain't never seen She knows that she's married but she can't remember why and she wonders what it might feel like with some other guy
And though she's hotter than an oven just to fill You Can`t Make Love - Don Henley[Songtekst]
You Can't Make Love
You can make money, you can make good
friends
You can make mistakes and you can make
amends
You can make it easy when push comes to
shove, but-
You can't make love
You can make advances, you can make
big plans
Plant sloppy kisses all over her hands
You can tell herAnd I Love You So - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
(McLean)
And I love you so
People ask me how
How I've lived 'til now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
And yes I know how lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
BBuilding My Body - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
(McLean)
I'm building my body
I'm happy when I'm building my body
I'm tired of fighting, let's make friends
I'm tired of burning both ends
That's why I'm building my body
It hurts me but I'm building my body
And I know what the pain is worth
I know I feel the pain of birth
I'm pushin' up
Castles In The Air - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
(McLean)
And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
That I'm tired of Castles in theA ir
I've got a dream I want the world to share in castle walls
Just lead me to despair
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky
A dream come true, I'll live there 'til I die
ICrossroads - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
I've got nothing on my mind:
Nothing to remember,
Nothing to forget.
And I've got nothing to regret,
But I'm all tied up on the inside,
No one knows quite what I've got;
And I know that on the outside
What I used to be, I'm not anymore.
You know I've heard about
people like me,
But I nevCrying - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while
then I saw you last night
you held my hand so tight
when you stopped to say hello
then you wished me well, you couldn’t tell that I’d been
Crying over you
Crying over you
then you said „so long“
left me standing all alone

(McLean)
I feel like a spinnin'top or a dreidel
The spinnin' don't stop when you leave the cradle
You just slow down
'Round and around this world you go
Spinnin' through the lives of the people you know
We all slow down

Everyday, it's a gettin' closer,
Goin' faster than a roller coaster,
Love like yours will surely come my way, (hey, hey, hey)
Everyday, it's a gettin' faster,
Everyone sasy go ahead and ask her,
Love like yours will surely come my way, (hey, hey, hey)
Everyday seems a little longer,

(McLean)
If you wanna make me happy
Here's all you gotta do
Just take me where you're going
And I'll take care of you
'Cause I've got this need that's growin'
To keep you satisfied
And if you keep your green light showin'
Then you can take me for a ride
'Cause I la la la la la la love yRespectable - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
Ah, it ain't so easy is it? You almost lost your place.
And perhaps you're wondering how you're going to cope with your disgrace.
Well your wealth is well established and your friends were never few,
And all the things they told you of you're finding to be true.
Well if truth can free the guiltyTapestry - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
Every thread of creation is held in position
By still other strands of things living
In an earthly tapestry hung from the skyline
Of smoldering cities, so gray and so vulgar,
As not to be satisfied with their own negativity,
But needing to touch all the living as well.
And every breeze that Till Tomorrow - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
1.Verse What can this be - can you tell me
Would you like to discover
Why we're not free - to be lovers
I've been wanting to ask you
1.Chorus Where has all the love gone
And what have we become
Storm clouds full of thunder
Move silent as they drum
2.Verse And when they're gone, we'll bWinterwood - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
No one can take your place with me
And time has proven that I'm right
There's no place I'd rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
A lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground
And for the first I'veWonderful Baby - Don Mclean[Songtekst]
(McLean)
Wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes
Wonderful baby, nothin' but new
The world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you
At the beginning, or is it the end

Coffee black, cigarette,
start this day like all the rest
First thing ev´ry mornin´ that I do
is start missin´ you
Some broken hearts never mend
Some mem´ries never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die
Rendezvous in the night,
a willin´ woman to hold me tighNow, I don't want to lose you
but I don't want to use you
just to have somebody by my side.
And I don't want to hate you,
I don't want to take you
but I don't want to be the one to cry.
And that don't really matter to anyone anymore.
But like a fool I keep losing my place
and I keep seeing you walk
