Dave Davies Album

D. Davies

In your eyes I see a thousand lives
Where do you come from ?
Where do you belong ?

Visions in my mind of people crying
Where did we go wrong ?
Where do we belong ?

Ways that our fathers showed us are a menace
And a hindrance in these troubled times
Blinding us, stealing us of our reason.

Down crash the walls of cities
That have kept us all enslaved for so many years
Want new seeing, new meaning for us living.

Did I see you once as a friend ?
Where do you come from ?
Where do you belong ?

When I feel you around me
Seems that I've loved you oh so many times
I know you, do you remember me ?

See fields which stretch far before us
Offer a new vision that began with time
Children dancing, joyous laughter, sacred wonder.

D. Davies

You can blame it on the government
The unions they use you all your life
You can take any system
And make believe it will be alright.

They've taken the spirit out of your life
And give you a machine
No wonder you feel so hard done by.

They're doing the best for you
Well, that's what they say, I know what you're going through
You travel alone, the journey is long
With only a name, in search of a song.

You can blame it on the Catholics
The Jews, the Blacks and the Whites
You can take any doctrine
And surely waste another life.

Any way that you want it to be
By popular demand
Any way but the way that it should be.

They're doing the best for you
Well, that's what they say, I know what you're going through
You travel alone, the journey is long
With only a name, in search of a home.

The world is ruled by science and money
That's all that exists
How much longer must we live and we die for this ?

Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you.

You travel alone, the journey is long
From where do you come ? To where do you go ?

D. Davies

By your smile I know you think I'm just a dreamer
And that the way I act seems often kind of foolish
But eyes can lie and sometimes words are oh so useless
Oh, you're a part of me, the rest is history.

There is a light that shines above you when I'm near you
That somehow tells me all the things we never say
And in my heart I sense a love that lasts for always
Yes, our dreams were true, it's just we never knew.

I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

Oh, I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

In your eyes I see a visionary dreamer
But all at once they say you're acting like a fool
The world may change but it can never really harm you
For there's a love that's true, that's deep inside of you.

Soon the time will come for us to say goodbye
But all the visions of our friendship will remain
And every time I see a child look to the sky
I will remember you, we shared a love so true.

I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

Oh, I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

Now as I gaze out of my window to the stars
It seems somehow our little lives are oh so strange
I close my eyes and feel the universe within me
And you're a part of me, and you will always be.

I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

Oh, I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

Oh, I love you
Yes, I do, there is no doubt
I love you and there ain't no doubt about it.

D. Davies

Get out of that house, stop watchin' TV
Have you heard the news ?
Wel,l there's a new world here and it's staring straight at you.

Don't want no politics, religion too
They've got nothing left to prove
Well, my heart's beatin' rhythm and my soul keeps singin' the blues.

I know we can make it happen
Any time we want it to
I know we can make it happen
Now it's all up to you.

We got nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose.

We're so proud of our intellect
Arrogant selfish fools
Who can look no further than a bunch of separative rules.

Well, if we're all so clever and technology rules
Why is it we're so scared ?
I got a rockin' psychosis and my juke box blown a fuse.

Don't look, there's someone watching
Though they're many light years away
Don't stop, they may be listening
To every single word you say.

Nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose.

Can you feel something strange in your heart, in your brain ?
But it's not what you think, you're just walking out of sleep.

Nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose.

I know we can make it happen
Any time we want it to
I know we can make it happen
Now it's all up to you.

Nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose.

Can you feel something strange in your heart, in your brain ?

Nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose, nothing more to lose.

D. Davies

There is a war going on, a spiritual change
There is a world going wrong
Don't you wanna run away and hide ?
And it seems so hard.

We're on a psychic battlefield
Fighting for our souls to make us free, you and me.

The world is changing hands
There will be a bright tomorrow
The world is in our hands
We are spirit, we are free.

The world is changing hands
There will be a bright tomorrow
The world is in our hands
We are spirit, we are free.

There is a world going on and it won't go away
There is a love going on
That's stronger than all these silly words
I say, yes it's true.

Think of the most selfless thing to be
Send it to the whole humanity, you and me.

The world is changing hands
There will be a bright tomorrow
The world is in our hands
We are spirit, we are free.

The world is changing hands
There will be a bright tomorrow
The world is in our hands
We are spirit, we are free.

The world is changing hands
There will be a bright tomorrow.

D. Davies

Don't want to surrender anymore to the likes of you
Don't want a pretender to show me what to do.

No degree of immunity
Gonna give you freedom guaranteed
But it ain't no joke when there ain't no hope
There's no political system gonna satisfy me.

Move over, can't you hear what I say ? Move over
Move over, now we've tried it your way, move over
Move over, yeah yeah
Oh, move over, yeah yeah yeah.

No man made laws, no government rule
Broad concepts are makin' fools of us all
Answer to yourself, let nobody else
Stop you doing what you wanna do.

Move over, can't you hear what I say ? Move over
Move over, now we've tried it your way, move over.

Don't want to remember people as they used to be
Just want to see changes, whatever is fine by me.

Is all that money gonna free you from sin ?
Is all that virtue gonna save your skin ?
When the going gets rough there'll be no turning back
Then what of your gold and your shammy seat backs ?

Can't you hear what I say ? Move over
Move over, now we've tried it your way, move over
Move over, yeah yeah yeah
Oh, move over, yeah yeah yeah yeah.

D. Davies

See the beast
Got such a hold on you every way you turn
But don't hang around now
It's too late for politics to save you.

It's funny, can't you see the dream ?
Just hold it tenderly in your hand.

For you, for you to see you through the night
For you, for you to light your weary path
Don't let him, no no no no, tell you that everything is wrong
Don't let him, no no no, it's just his way to keep you lost.

See the beast
Suddenly I noticed we were going nowhere
But hold on
Though there's cold around you, brother, it won't last.

It's funny, can't you see the dream ?
Just hold it tenderly in your hand and let it go.

Don't let him break your heart
He'll tear your soul apart, believe.

For you, for you to see you through the night
For you, for you to see the wrong from the right.

See the beast
Got such a hold on you every way you turn
But don't hang around now
It's too late for politics to save you.

Don't let him, no no no, tell you that everything is wrong
Don't let him, no no no, it's just his way to keep you lost.

D. Davies

Voices all across the nation echo in my mind
In the streets, in the factories, in the towns
Living out what imagination made real
Got to leave the old world behind
Use a fantasy, imagination is real.

I'm so much in love I can't explain
Imagination's real
Build your dreams and make them strong
Imagination's real.

Imagination's real, imagination's real
Imagination's real, imagination's real.

No solution, hatred, fear of what's to come
Don't cry, can't you feel it inside ?
Can't you see it's the only way it can be ?
For our past has left us alone
With a cold reality imagination made real.

If you use a dream to change a mind
Then imagination's real
Think with your heart and you will see
Imagination's real.

Imagination's real, imagination's real
Imagination's real.

D. Davies

This is how it begins
Open your heart and let the light shine through
It's easy to do
Just close your eyes and feel the love around you.

You've just got to believe
What a waste of a life, what a waste of our time
Yes, in you I believe
What a fool I've been, oh, we're gonna change the world.

In you I believe, ah ah ah
In you I believe, ah ah ah
In you I believe, oh, we're gonna change the world.

There's no way you can hide what's really inside
And yes it's time we showed it
Turn your face to the sky
Open your mind and forever know that.

You were born to be free
What a waste of a life, what a waste of our time
Yes, and you won't believe
What a fool I've been, oh, we're gonna change the world.

In you I believe, ah ah ah
In you I believe, ah ah ah
In you I believe, ah ah ah
In you I believe.

D. Davies

Remember how we used to laugh away
Those hours we would spend
We thought they'd last forever.

Oh, though I must go I know the pain I leave
But oh, these things will change
'Cause nothing lasts forever.

For now at last I see all life as one
All children are my own
I'll never be alone.

Please, don't cry for there's a brighter sun
That allows us to be free
Allows us to be bound.

Run, run, find a place of my own
Somewhere where I belong
Somewhere where I can grow.

Got to run, run, find a place of my own
Somewhere where I belong
Somewhere where I can grow.

If only there was a way to tell you exactly how I feel
All I can say, that in my heart you'll always be.

Somewhere where I belong
Somewhere where I can grow.

Got to run, find a place of my own
Somewhere where I belong
Somewhere where I can grow.

Run.
