Looking for love and nothing more

Catch my soul - make me whole

And I'll love you, love ya,
For all of my time.

4.TRAVELLER IN TIME.
-----------------------
1-verse:
----------------------
Every day I have to look to the sun
To see where it was that I have come from
I have a feeling that there must be a time
When I'll get a chance to go home
'Cause I'm so tired of being here alone
But I'm just a traveller in time
Trying so hard to pay for my crime

2-verse:
--------------------
If I could go back the same way I got here
And see the people that I once held so near
I'd do my best to find an answer for you
But first I must wait 'til I'm set free
And I don't know how long that's gonna be
'Cause I'm a man with a whole lot on his mind
Just out there

Final.
------------------
Somewhere travelling in time
Travelling in Time
I've tried for so long to find some way
Of helping mankind
Yeah!

There I was on a July morning
I was looking for love,
With the strength of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
At the sound of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm and the night behind me
And a road of my own!

Refrain:

With the day came the resolution
I'll be looking for you

La, la, la, la...
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la!!!

2-verse:
-------------------
I was looking for love in the strangest places
There wasn't a stone that I left unturned
I must have tried more than a thousand faces
But not one was aware of the fire that burned

In my heart, In my mind, In my soul
La la la la...
La la la la
La la la!!!

Solo organ...

In my heart, In my mind, In my soul

La la la la... La la la la...
La-la-la
Lai la ! Lai la! Lai la! La-a!!!

1-verse and final:
---------------------
There I was on a July morning
Looking for love,
With the strength of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
At the sound of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm and the night behind me
And a road of my own
With the day came the resolution
I'll be looking for you
La la la la...

And put a whip across my back
And told her leave me!

Will she still be torn between

Cold spirits plan
Searching my land for an enemy
Came across love's sweet cost
And in the face of beauty
Evil was lost

Sky full of eyes, minds full of lies
Black from their cold hearts, down to their graves
Murdered the dawn, spreading their scorn
Cursing the sun of which love was born

Chorus:
--------------------
We must keep them away
Or pretty soon we'll pay
And count the cost in sorrow
Sacrifice, the future has its price
And today is only yesterday's tomorrow

Chorus final:
----------------------
We must keep them away
Or pretty soon we'll pay
And count the cost in sorrow
Sacrifice, the future has its price
And today is only yesterday's tomorrow, tomorrow!
Tomorrow, tomorrow!

Tomorrow, tomorrow!

12.Love Machine
(Hensley/Byron/Box)
-----------------------Lovely little lady
You've got me on the run
You're a love machine and you say that I'm your gun
But I don't care 'cause I've got to know

You said you were a loser
The kind that came off worse
So I had to try hard to satisfy your thirst
But I don't care 'cause I've got to know

Solo guitar...

The only time she's happy
Is when the bullets fly
And she'll make you feel you're better than any other guy
But I don't care 'cause I've got to know

Solo organ...

Lovely little lady
You've got me on the run - yeah
You're a love machine and you say that I'm your gun
But I don't care 'cause I've got to know

(Chuck Berry)

Well gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local D.J.

It's a rockin' little record
I want my jockey to play

Roll over Beethoven
I gotta hear it again today

You know my temperature's rising
And the jukebox's blowin' a fuse

My hearts beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps singing the blues

Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
...

Roll over Beethoven
...
Rocking it two by two

Roll over Beethoven
...
tell Tchaikovsky the news!

2. Blue suede shoes.
-----------------------One for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go.

But don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.

You can burn my house,
Steal my car,
Drink my liquor
From an old fruitjar.

Do anything that you want to do, uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes

Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

blue suede shoe

Mean as she can be

Sometimes I think
She's almost mean as me
