Lyrics van Colin Blunstone & Rod Argent
Breakaway
I watch the distant lights on the runway
Disappear into the evening sky
Oh you know I'm with you on your journey
Never could say, "Goodbye"
It's not the sun you're trying to find
Something else is on your mind
You need a little space and time to break away
It's not the place you're going to
It's just a phase you're going through
Though I won't stop you I don't want you to
Break away, fly across your ocean
Break away, time has come for you
Break away, fly across your ocean
Break away, time has come
For you to awaken in another country
Greet the morning under foreign skies
Leaving me to face another Monday
It's not easy to get by
It's not the sun you're trying to find
Something else is on your mind
You need a little space and time to break away
It's not the place you're going to
It's just a phase you're going through
Though I won't stop you I don't want you to
Break away
Fly across your ocean
Break away
(Break away, break away)
Time has come for you
Break away
(Break away, break away)
Fly across your ocean
Break away
(Break away, break away)
Time has come for you
Break away
(Break away, break away)
Fly across your ocean
Break away
(Break away, break away)

Everlasting Love
I have been deceived
I have been misled
Out in stormy seas
I have found no rest
I have told some lies
To protect myself
I've been such a fool
I've learned my lesson well
And in my search for freedom
I have found someone to lean on
This is not someone who's here and gone
This is everlasting love
I have been rescued
My life has just begun
For one who is so weak
With you I feel so strong
I can't believe my eyes
The sun has set me free
At last I understand
This peace inside of me
And in my search for purity
I have found someone who has met my needs
This is not a short term remedy
This is everlasting love
And in my search for honesty
I have found a love so true to me
I believe in one can not see
With an everlasting love

How Could We Dare to Be Wrong
Take me up
Fill my cup with your wine
I'm your home
And you are mine
I'll never leave you
Now that I've seen you
I'll never breathe a word of what I've found
Make my eyes
Tell no lies
To my heart
I've known the way
Right from the start
You know you'll see me
Only when you free me
When our darkest hour are passes to dark
How could we fail to see
Everything that we could be?
Now that we've written this song
How could we dare to be wrong
There is no turning back from the truth
It took so long
But now I'm there
Take my word
Show me you've heard
I'll never ask again what I ask now
How could we fail to see
Everything that we could be?
Now that we've written this song
How could we dare to be wrong
To be wrong

Levi Stubbs' Tears
With the money from her accident
She bought herself a mobile home
So at least she could get some enjoyment out of being alone
No one could say that she was left up on the shelf
"It's you and me against the world, kid", she mumbled to herself
When the world falls apart some things stay in place
Levi stubbs' tears run down his face
She ran away from home with her mother's best coat
She was married before she was even entitled to vote
And her husband was one of those blokes
The sort that only laughs at his own jokes
The sort that war takes away
And when there wasn't a war he left her anyway
When the world falls apart some things stay in place
Levi stubbs' tears run down his face
Norman Whitfield and Barratt Strong
Are here to make right everything that's wrong
Holland and Holland and Lamont Dozier too
Are here to make it all okay with you
And one dark night he came home from the sea
And put a hole in her body where no hole should be
It hurt her more to see him walking out the door
And though they stitched her back together
They left her heart in pieces on the floor
When the world falls apart some things stay in place
She takes off the Four Tops tape and puts it back in its case
And when the world falls apart some things stay in place
Levi stubbs' tears

The Radio Was Playing Johnny Come Lately
She was always on the run
She said she didn't need someone
But you know somehow you know
And I was only half awake
Waiting for the clouds to break
But you know, somehow you know
Suddenly we had to be together
Suddenly the world could fade away
The radio was playing 'Johnny Come Lately'
She said hello and I was helpless and everyone knew
The radio was playing 'Johnny Come Lately'
How did they know, how do they know?
Rolling under open skies
I wonder why I close my eyes
Little girl, shut out the world
And every little sign tonight
Every little kick inside
Couldn't tell her anyway
What would she say?
Somebody said there's no forever
Everybody knew she'd walk away and I remember the day
The radio was playing 'Johnny Come Lately'
She said hello and I was helpless and everyone knew
The radio was playing 'Johnny Come Lately'
How did they know? How do they know
Running away from the weighted dice
Running from the good advice
And pretending I knew the ending
Oh I tried, you can hide from the heart beating inside

Ja, zo mooi, die teksten...poezie Met die stem van Colin Blunstone Onaards en magisch, tijdloos Al bijna 40 jaar geleden werd ik er door aangeraakt En het is nooit meer overgegaan...
