GOOD TO SEE YOU
Good to see you
Good to see you again
Good to see your face again
Good to see you
I'm the suitcase in your hallway
I'm the footsteps on your floor
When I'm lookin' down on you
I feel like I know what my life is for
Good to see you
Good to see you again
Good to see your face again
Good to see you

I've been down on the endless highway
I passed on the solid line
Now at last I'm home to you
I feel like making up for lost time

Good to see you
Good to see you again
Good to see your face again
It's good to see you

SILVER AND GOLD
Workin' hard every day
Never notice how the time slips away
People come, seasons go
We got something that'll never grow old
I don't care if the sun don't shine
And the rain comes pourin' down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
Never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold

I used to have a treasure chest
Got so heavy that I had to rest
I let it slip away from me
Didn't need it anyway.
So I let it slip away.
I don't care if the sun don't shine
And the rain comes pourin' down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
Never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold

I don't care if the sun don't shine
And the rain comes pourin' down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
Never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold

DADDY WENT WALKIN'
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin' just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossing the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossing the road,
He's feelin' fine

Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him 'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossing the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossing the road,
He's feelin' fine

Mama's waiting
at the top of the hill,
They'll be laughing,
oh the stories they'll tell
When he holds her
in his arms again,
They'll be sweethearts
with time on their hands

My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin' just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him 'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD AGAIN
Used to play in a rock 'n roll band,
But they broke up
We were young and we were wild
It ate us up
Now I'm not saying who was right or wrong
Looking out on a big green lawn,
Girls and boys
Playing in the afternoon sun,
And life's a joy
I heard an old song playing on a radio
Buffalo Springfield again

Like to see those guys again
And give it a shot
Maybe now we can show the world
What we got
But I'd just like to play for the fun we had
Buffalo Springfield again

Buffalo Springfield again

THE GREAT DIVIDE
In the canyons of the great divide
Familiar places that we can run and hide
Are filled with strangers
Walking in our houses alone

In the great divide
Nothing to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
You won't fit in too well

On the horses of the carousel
She rides alone with you and me
She rides like she knows
Wherever she goes, we'll be there

On the carousel
Life is going well
Anyone can tell we're in love
On the carousel
You're gonna like the way you feel

You and I, we got caught down there
In the twisted canyons of the great divide
We walked the floor
Now we don't go there anymore

In the great divide
Nothin' to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
I don't fit in too well

In the great divide
Nothin' to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
You won't fit in too well

HORSESHOE MAN
In the land of the broken hearted
People lookin' for the horseshoe man
They've been picking up little pieces
They've been puttin' 'em all in his hand
And the way the story started
Two lovers long ago
Took a vow to live with heart break
Took a chance but how could they know love?
How could they know love?
Love, how could they know love

Horseshoe man's been working his magic
Fixin' heart break everywhere
He's the one we all can count on
When we're lost and don't know where love is
He takes the pieces in his hand
And shakes 'em up like he doesn't care
He says there will always be heart break
Because love is everywhere
Love, I don't know about love
Love, I don't know
Love don't care if you're wrong or right
Love don't know if you're black or white
Love ain't lookin' for perfection
Love's the answer
Love's the question

Love, I don't know about love
Love, I don't know
Love, I don't know about love
Love, I don't know about love

RED SUN
When the red sun sets
On the railroad town
And the bars begin to laugh
With the happy sound
I'll still be here
Right by your side
They'll not be anyone
In my heart but you
And the dreams that you're havin'
They won't let you down
If you just follow on
Cause you know where you're bound
The well will be flowing
And the words will come fast
When the one who's coming
Arrives here at last

On the grassy hills
Of the railroad town
Where we cut through the fences
And over the crowd
Where wind was blowin'
Right through your hair
I dreamt that my momma
And daddy were there
And the dreams that you're havin'
They won't let you down
If you just follow on
Cause you know where you're bound
The well will be flowing
And the words will come fast
When the one who's coming
Arrives here at last

When the red sun sets
On the railroad town
And the bars begin to laugh
With the happy sound
I'll still be here
Right by your side
They'll not be another
In my heart but you

DISTANT CAMERA
The flash from a distant camera
Reconnecting thoughts and actions
Fragments of our missing dream
Pieces from here and there
Fall in place along the line
Disappearing between you and me

Life is changing everywhere I go
New things and old both disappear
If life is a photograph fading in the mirror
All I want is a song of love
Song of love to sing for you
All I need is this song of love
To sing for you.

On the floor where daylight dances
With the ones that missed their chances
When they couldn't let it show
Lies the land of sweet surrender
Like a dream it might have ended there
But we didn't even know
Now forever we will live as one,
Floating in love's atmosphere
If love is a piece of dust shining in the sun,
All I want is a song of love
Song of love to sing for you
All I need is this song of love
To sing for you
Song of love
Song of love

RAZOR LOVE
I got to bet that your old man
Became fascinated with his own plans
Turned you loose, your mama too
There wasn't a thing that you could do.
I got faith in you, it's the razor of love
That cuts clean through.
I got faith in you, it's a razor love
That cuts clean through.

And you really made my day
With the little things you say
Right now I'm looking through the window at a silhouette
Trying to find something I can find yet
Imagination is my best friend
Got to look out for the greedy hand, greedy hand
Make a living like a rolling stone
On the road there's no place like home
Silhouettes on the window.

Who was it made your eyes flicker like that
Tell me baby, how'd you get the knack
You came to me with open arms
And I really took you down the track
Now all I've got for you is the kind of love
That cuts clean through.
All I got for you is razor love
That cuts clean through.
You really made my day
With the little things you say
Now I'm looking through the window at a silhouette
Trying to find something I can find yet
Imagination is my best friend
Got to look out for the greedy hand, greedy hand
Make a living like a rolling stone
On the road there's no place like home
Silhouettes on the window.

And you really made my day

With the little things you say

WITHOUT RINGS
Someone's hiding out
who can't forget about
the things that people do when they're free.

Like visitors from space
it's hard to find a place
to blend in and go unrecognized.

I'm waiting for a sign
I'm standing on the road
with my mind outstretched to you.

I'm picking something up
I'm letting something go
like a dog I'm fetching this to you.

Pictures in my mind
Row of poppy fields
Harmony entwined
A changing gear that grinds
Pictures in my mind.

Pictures in my brain
Electrical energy
Fighting drugs with pain
There's a war inside
Pictures in my brain.

I'm looking for a job
I don't know what I'm doing
My software's not compatible with you.

But this I can't deny
I know that you can fly
Cause I'm here on the ground without you.

Angel without wings
Owner without things
Sharpshooter without rings around you.

The road we used to ride
Together side by side
Has flowers pushing through the dotted line.
