Today's Earworm

Drops of Jupiter

5/31/2018

Train

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return of her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey
Hey, hey

But tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way 
to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?

Tell me, did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking 
for yourself out there?

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, hey, yeah

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as
Plain ol' Jane, told a story about a man 
who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance 
along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking 
for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze-dried romance
Five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had, and me

But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance 
along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way?

And tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way 
to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?

And tell me, did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking 
for yourself

Na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na, na-na, na-na

And did you finally get the chance to dance 
along the light of day?
And did you fall from a shooting star, 
fall from a shooting star?
And are you lonely looking 
for yourself out there?

Help Me

Joni Mitchell

Help me
I think I'm falling
In love again
When I get that crazy feeling, I know
I'm in trouble again
I'm in trouble

'Cause you're a rambler and a gambler
And a sweet-taIking-ladies man
And you love your lovin'
But not like you love your freedom

Help me
I think I'm falling
In love too fast
It's got me hoping for the future
And worrying about the past
'Cause I've seen some hot hot blazes
Come down to smoke and ash
We love our lovin'

But not like we love our freedom
Didn't it feel good
We were sitting there talking
Or lying there not talking
Didn't it feel good
You dance with the lady
With the hole in her stocking

Didn't it feel good
Didn't it feel good
Help me
I think I'm falling
In love with you

Are you going to let me go there by myself
That's such a lonely thing to do
Both of us flirting around
Flirting and flirting
Hurting too
We love our lovin'
But not like we love our freedom

Earth, Wind & Fire

Every man has a place, 
in his heart there's a space,
And the world can't erase his fantasies
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasy
All your dreams will come true, right away

And we will live together, 
until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever, as one

Every thought is a dream, 
rushing by in a stream,
Bringing life to our kingdom of doing
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasy
All your dreams will come true, miles away

Our voices will ring together 
until the twelfth of never,
We all, will live forever, as one

Come see victory, in the land called fantasy
Loving life, a new decree,
Bring your mind to everlasting liberty

Our minds will explore together, 
old worlds, we conquer, forever
We then, will expand love together, as one
Come to see, victory in a land called fantasy,
Loving life, for you and me, 
to behold, to your soul is ecstasy

You will find, other kind, 
that has been in search for you,
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize it's your life, now in review
And as you stay for the play, 
fantasy, has in store for you,
A glowing light will see you through

It's your day, shining day, 
all your dreams come true
As you glide, in your stride 
with the wind, as you fly away
Give a smile, from your lips, and say
I am free, yes I'm free, now I'm on my way

Steely Dan

Hurry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine
Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time
The girls don't seem to care what's on
As long as they play 'til dawn
Nothin' but blues and Elvis
And somebody else's favorite song

Give her some funked up music, she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right

FM - no static at all

Give her some funked up music, she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right

FM - no static at all

While You See a Chance

Steve Winwood

Stand up in a clear blue morning
Until you see what can be
Alone in a cold day dawning
Are you still free? Can you be?

When some cold tomorrow finds you
When some sad old dream reminds you
How the endless road unwinds you

While you see a chance take it
Find romance, fake it
Because its all on you

Don't you know by now
No one gives you anything?
And don't you wonder how you keep on moving?
One more day your way

And that old gray wind is blowing
And there's nothing left worth knowing
And its time you should be going

While you see a chance take it
Find romance, fake it
Because its all on you

While you see a chance take it
Find romance
While you see a chance take it
Find romance

While you see a chance take it
Find romance
While you see a chance take it
Find romance

While you see a chance take it
Find romance
While you see a chance take it
Find romance

Burnin' for You

Blue Öyster Cult

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play b-sides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you 
what's wrong or what's right
I've seen signs of what 
freezing their eyes went through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Baby Come Back

Player

Spending all my nights, 
all my money going out on the town
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
But when the morning comes, 
I'm right back where I started again
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

All day long, 
wearing a mask of false bravado
Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear
But as the sun goes down, 
I get that empty feeling again
How I wish to God that you were here

Baby come back, 
any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, 
you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, 
and I just can't live without you

Now that I put it all together
Give me the chance to make you see
Have you used up all the love in your heart
Nothing left for me, 
ain't there nothing left for me

Baby come back, 
any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, listen, 
you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, 
and I just can't live without you

I was wrong, and I just can't live

Baby come back, 
any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, 
you can blame it all on me

Show Me The Way

5/24/2018

Styx

Every night I say a prayer
in the hope that there's a heaven
And every day I'm more confused
as the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child
have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside
so afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way

And as I slowly drift to sleep,
for a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace
in a world so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning and turn on the news
to find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign,
so afraid that I just won't know

Show me the way, Show me the way
Take me tonight to the mountain
And wash my confusion away

And if I feel light, should I believe
Tell me how will I know

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way, show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
Show me the way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hope that there's a heaven...

Hard to Say

5/23/2018

Dan Fogelberg

Lucky at love
Well, maybe so
There's still a lot of things 
You'll never know
Like why each time 
The sky begins to snow
You cry

You're faithful to her
In your careless way
So you miss her when 
She's far away
But every time you think 
You've got it straight
You fall

You face the future 
With a weary past
Those dreams you banked upon 
Are fading fast
You know you love her 
But it may not last 
Your fear

It's never easy
And it's never clear
Who's to navigate
And who's to steer
So you flounder 
Drifting ever near the rocks

It's hard to say 
Where love went wrong
It's hard to say just when
It's hard to walk away from love
It may never come again

You do your best 
To keep your hand in play
And try to keep 
Those lonesome blues at bay
You think you're winning 
But it's hard to say sometimes

It's hard to say 
Where love went wrong
It's hard to say just when
It's hard to walk away from love
It may never come again

Lucky at love
Well, maybe so
There's still a lot of things 
You'll never know
Like why each time 
The sky begins to snow
You cry

Annie's Song

John Denver

You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
