song list next song Yes/ABWH: Letter K Yes: Highlights - The Very Best Of Yes Yes: 90125 Leave It
(Squire/Rabin/Horn)
I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make
Real

One donw one to go
Another town and one more show
Downtown they're giving away
But she never came back

No phone can take your place
You know what I mean
We have the same intrigue
As a court of kings

Ah leave it
Ah leave it
Two down there you go
McArthur Park in the driving snow
Uptown they're digging it out
Better lay your claim

Get home you're not alone
You just broke out of the danger zone
Be there to show your face
On another dreamy day

Ah leave it
Ah leave it

Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad                                          Ah leave it
Hello hello heaven

Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad                                          Ah leave it
Hello hello heaven

I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make
Real

Ah leave it
Ah leave it

Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad                                          Ah leave it
Hello hello heaven

Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad                                          Ah leave it
Hello hello heaven

One down one to go                                                   Ah leave it
Another town and one more show                       Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
                                                              Hello hello heaven

One down one to go                                   Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
Another town and one more show

Leave it
song list next song previous song ABWH: Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe Let's Pretend
(Anderson/Howe/Wakeman/Bruford/Vangelis)
Let us be together, let's pretend that we
Are free, let's all be where the angels
Find us, we all have the key
Shall we seal the truth of life
Shall we light the heavens
We're so good at finding pleasure
As to what we are, and how we fit
Together

Let us sing the song it is
Let the sound of all belief
Let's all find that space in life
To follow in between
It's something that I feel
To pour upon my soul
Countenance of love
For one n' all
To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
And as before, and like before
We'll do again

To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again

Do again...
song list next song previous song Yes: Union Lift Me Up
(Rabin/Squire)
Look around - Got no place to stay.
God I hate this town, depending on the day.
You look me up, you look me down - Alright, OK.

While I got no life, I got no hope;
I'm falling in love.
Help me through the fight;
Help me win tonight - I'm calling.

What to do I find it hard to know;
The road I walk is not the one I chose

Lift me up and turn me over;
Lead me on into the dawn.
Take me to the highest mountain;
Tie me up, love in a storm.
Have you decided on my fortune?
Facing the future in your eyes,
With your imperial behaviour
We fight amidst the battle cries.

Open doors - They may be closed to me;
The fire's still burning in my heart...

What to do I find it hard to know;
I want to turn my life around...
song list next song previous song Yes: The Ladder Lightning Strikes
(Anderson/Howe/Sherwood/Squire/White/Khoroshev; lyrics: Anderson)
When you gonna do when the lighting strikes n' hits you
Who ya gonna call for the secret of stealing the world
Swimming in this ocean of words on your new cellphone
Diving for the wisdom of pearls -- in your eyes come on

What ya gonna do when the lightning strikes and hits you
How ya gonna laugh when the joker forgets his lines
Stepping off a cloud into space whatever greets you
Show me how you got this award for being alive

Waking up is waking to the power
Dancing up is dancing till the dawn
Talk talk talk will always get you someplace
Shake it up n' shake me till I'm done
Shake it up now!!

She ay... Do wa bap
She ay... Do wa bap
She ay... Do wa bap
She ay... Do wa bap

Who ya gonna call when the power
Begins to chase you
Spinning out of shape now your learning to live again
Fastening your seatbelt toning it could get jumpy

Showing me the good 'n that
Life is not in vain

Take take take, 'n' take me thru' the lightning
Walk don't talk me always on the run
Ride it out until you get the picture
Shake it up and let me get me some
Let me get me some

Eya he say touch it together --
- touching my spirit touching my feeling
Eya he say touch it together --
- touching my spirit touching my feeling
Eya he say coming together --
- touching my spirit touching my feeling
Eya he say coming together --
- touching my spirit touching my feeling

Talk, talk, talk, keep moving round in circles
Moving till the moon is on the run
Take me take me take me to the new day
Take me out and let me get me some

Take take take and and dance me thru the lightning
Moving to the left 'n' to the sun... ya ya ya

Help me get me some.... ya
Help me get me some.... come on

Ooh ya... ooh ya... ooh ya... ohh ya
Ooh ya... ooh ya... ooh ya
song list next song previous song ABWH: An Evening Of Yes Music Plus Yes: Highlights - The Very Best Of Yes Yes: Yesstory Yes: Yesyears Yes: Classic Yes Yes: Yessongs Yes: Fragile Long Distance Runaround
(Anderson)
Long distance runaround
Long time waiting to feel the sound
I still remember the dream there
I still remember the time you said goodbye
Did we really tell lies
Letting in the sunshine
Did we really count to one hundrer

Cold summer listening
Hot colour melting the anger to stone
I still remember the dream there
I still remember the time you said goodbye
Did we really tell lies
Did we really count to one hundred

(REPEAT VERSES)

Looking for the sunshine
song list next song previous song Yes: Something's Coming Yes: Yesterdays Yes: Yes Looking Around
(Anderson/Squire)
Looking around me,
There's not so much in life I miss.
Things that I can't see,
I'll touch and I'll feel then I'll kiss.
Then I saw you standing there
With a smile I couldn't share,
Just looking around ev'rywhere.

All the things I've wanted to do
Take so much time to get around to you.
Just reach out and catch and hold on,
Leaving trails of dust and lust,
Never even ly'ng or try'ng, keep on moving, never dying.

Tunes that I can't hear
Would take me for a while my smile.
Fares that are too dear,
I'd rather walk out another mile.
Then I heard a tune so right,
It was in the dark of night,
Just list'ning around ev'rywhere.

All the things I've wanted to do
Take so much time to get around to you.
Just reach out and catch and hold on,
Leaving trails of dust and lust,
Never even ly'ng or try'ng, keep on moving, never dying.

Smiles that I don't see,
I'll make them up as I go on.
Laughs that just can't be,
I'll make and laugh at ev'ry one.
Then I saw you in your place
With a laugh upon your face,
Just looking around ev'rywhere.

All the things I've wanted to do
Take so much time to get around to you.
Just reach out and catch and hold on,
Leaving trails of dust and lust,
Never even ly'ng or try'ng, keep on moving, never dying.

Looking around with my feet on the ground
Full of words and of sound, bringing smiles all around.

Satisfy me with your words that can be,
Full of sound and I'll see I'm just looking around.
song list next song previous song Yes: Yesyears Love Conquers All
(Squire/Sherwood)
Love can seem such a mystery
Confusing though it may be
It*s the one thing that we all need most

Love can make your world go round
Sometimes it can bring you down
Yet there*s no way to avoid the fall

Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all

Love will finally bring us all
Together eventually
There*s only one road for us all

Releasing our fear of the unknown
Believing in what could be
Now it*s time for each of us to answer the call

Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all

Sometimes love can be so true
Sometimes it*s running out on you
No matter how hard you try
You can*t avoid the fall
Only love conquers all

We can solve the mystery
Believe in what could be
Now its time for each of us
To answer the call

Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all

We can solve the mystery
Together eventually
Love conquers all

We can solve the mystery
Together eventually
Love conquers all

We can solve the mystery
Together eventually
Love conquers all
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: The Best Of South America Yes: Yesyears Yes: Big Generator Love Will Find a Way
(Rabin)
You wanna get close to me
The feeling so clear
But I need some time to see
Vision through my tear
You wanna get next to me
I need your intrusion
I don't need to be
Blinded by confusion

Here is my heart
Waiting for you
Here is my soul
I eat at chez nous

Love will find a way
If you want it to
Love will find a way
Love will find a way for me and you

Love will find a way
Love will find a way
Love will find a way
Love will find a way

So you want to get over me
And that's how you feel
Everything you want to be
Seems so unreal
I want to be all of you
And that's the confusion
It's so hard for me
To draw a conclusion

Here is my heart
Waiting for you
Here is my soul
I eat at chez nous

Love will find a way
If you want it to
Love will find a way
Love will find a way

Love will find a way
If you want it to
Love will find a way
Love will find a way

Love will find a way
I believe that there's a way
If you want it to
Will love find a way
Love will find a way
Will love find a way
Love will find a way

Taken by the powers of what you believe
Knowing you can't lose

        Beyond the sky
        These very questions lie
              Starlight
              Loving, in a lifetime

It was the first time candlelight
Something happens in your lifetime
It's the dance we all go through
Bring it in now
Bring it in true
Bring it in fast
Bring it right through
Right through

Feel the love shine
