Gentle Giant : The Missing Piece : 35th Anniversary Edition
歌词
1. TWO WEEKS IN SPAIN
Two weeks in Spain makes the year disappear easy
Two weeks in Spain, you forget, bored and yet weary
We're back again, drink the wine, weather's fine, only
Two weeks in Spain's not enough
Never think where you're going
Paradise a while knowing
Everything that you're doing
It's a carnival
Let it go so remember
Counting sheep in September
Let 'em know you're the master
It's a roundabout
2. I'M TURNING AROUND
Where's the love that you once promised
Where's the pride, was it all lies?
Taking all, but giving nothing
Did you want a compromise?
All these years we spent together
It was me who sold my time
Now I've made my life's decision
I'll take yours so please take mine
I'm turning around, there was no other way
I'm turning around, taking you come what may
How long did you think we'd make it
How could this affair survive?
Making mine a new direction
Could we keep us both alive?
All I am I have to offer
Someone new but still the same
Life for us an empty shelter
Now I'll play a different game
3. BETCHA THOUGHT WE COULDN'T DO IT
I betcha thought we couldn't do it
And if you did we wouldn't try
I betcha thought we couldn't do it
But if we didn't we would die
We built our house stone by stone
Little help, we were on our own
Made the town, torn it down
Now you know, tell me how it feels
We've been waiting such a long long time
To fit the pattern, fill the rhyme
Now we can't stick in our old ways
Now it's out we'll see how you feel
4. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE
Yeah, now I'm back here in Hollywood, I pick up the phone, turn the pages
Hi, got a friend and he said I should not be on my own, Come on over,
take you to our show
What are you doing?
Who do you think you are ?
You're not even the main star
Even if I could come, how would I know you're the one?
Who do you think you are?
You can put around you're a star
Well I might not be on time
Leave my name at the door
Well, you can bet here that anyone wants to take a ride
No tomorrow
So you can bet here that everyone will be at your side
Doesn't matter
You can't fool around, you're a star
5. MOUNTAIN TIME
Mountain time, mountain date
Hope to be there, before it's late
I need to see you, looking fine
Gotta be there, mountain time
Last night I had to tell you, made up my mind I need to see you
Got on the road to ride
I thought all of it over, now I have to be at your side
Somewhere, be there
So hard seeing it your way
I'm glad, what more can I say
This lane taking me back today
6. AS OLD AS YOU'RE YOUNG
Look at the mirror over there, what do you see ?
Tell yourself a lie
Are you as old as you seem ?
Feel something that you have to
Being open, an innocent, wise only when
Age can mellow the haste
New hopes, ambitions undone
You're only as old as you're young
Out of your youth and you'll find that the time goes
slipping away where no-one knows
Soon enough Winter is changing to Spring
Always understand one life it goes
Never as old as you're young and everything still yet to find
Dreams not realized
Thoughts rising, duties and vows continue, can't wait for you
Now is the day, tomorrow comes without an end
Mark time follow the sun
You're only as old as you're young
So as you look around, look at the things you knew
Never seeking the past
Forget all the things you have done
You're only as old as you're young
Still open eyed and promises never quite complete
Working head in the air
The coming of age never comes
You're only as old as you're young
7. MEMORIES OF OLD DAYS
Now the wings fell to ground as the miles they were crossed
All the years seemed like days as the time it was lost
For without his solutions and reasons for why
He should come up for air to the town once his by
So soon on his way
Shadows from the pathways
Memories of old days
That the journey was long many thoughts filled his mind
As he neared the stop always a dream he would find
But the road that he knew could no longer be seen
And the city lights flickered where lake waters gleamed
With sadness today
Hopes of joy yesterday
Memories of old days
Sky and the trees of his youthful time spent
Only smoke, only paper
No colour or scent
With sadness today
Hopes of joy yesterday
Memories of old days
8. WINNING
Once he could smile maybe happy
Fighting for his future and his destinations
There were his friends he'd rely on
Everyone had nothing but their aspirations
Soon dreaming found realization
Winning was his target with deliberation
Now he has everything, tell me why
No one knows him, the veils shut out cutting the tie
So now he's made his own island
Not familiar even to his understanding
Thoughts turning sour, did he want it ?
Something reassuring in his time and planning
What did he miss, needing nothing ?
Seeing that it was the fighting and not the winning
No returning, no looking back, on with his way
Rising winner but falling man, gaining the day
9. FOR NOBODY
Running away, I'll leave you my address, don't want you to reply to anybody
Forward my mail to the next place
I'll be responsible for nobody
Given my best to the people I knew
I'll always maintain my situation
And through it all, no one told me that I was doing it for nobody
Tried to forget everything that we did
And thinking we did it all together
How it went wrong, can't remember
It doesn't matter much for nobody
Nobody tells, everyone understands
It's anybody for nobody
Anyone for everybody
I'll be responsible for nobody
Taking my leave leaving many regrets
I'll go without meeting understanding
Maybe one day realizing
That everybody is for nobody
10. FOR NOBODY (LIVE)
Running away, I'll leave you my address, don't want you to reply to anybody
Forward my mail to the next place
I'll be responsible for nobody
Given my best to the people I knew
I'll always maintain my situation
And through it all, no one told me that I was doing it for nobody
Tried to forget everything that we did
And thinking we did it all together
How it went wrong, can't remember
It doesn't matter much for nobody
Nobody tells, everyone understands
It's anybody for nobody
Anyone for everybody
I'll be responsible for nobody
Taking my leave leaving many regrets
I'll go without meeting understanding
Maybe one day realizing
That everybody is for nobody
