Link: [Carole King]
Not every song that
will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian”
in the eyes of this world. For some will
be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously
fervent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless,
be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another)
and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.
Sweet Seasons
Carole King
Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
And sometimes the
blues get a hold of you
Just when you
thought
You had made it
All around the
block
People will talk
But I want to give
it all that I've got
I just don't want
I don't want to
waste it
Talkin' 'bout
Sweet seasons
On my mind
Sure does appeal to
me
You know we can get
there easily
Just like a
sailboat
A-sailin' on the
sea
Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
And most times you
choose between the two
Oh
Wonderin'
Wonderin'
If you have made it
But I'll have some
kids
And make my plans
And I'll watch the
seasons runnin' away
And I'll build me
A life in the open
A life in the country
I'm talkin' 'bout
A sweet season
On my mind
Sure does appeal to
me
You know we can get
there easily
Just like a
sailboat
A-sailin' on the
sea
Talkin' 'bout
A sweet season
Talkin' 'bout
A sweet
Sweet sweet season
Talkin' 'bout
A sweeeeeet season
Talkin' 'bout
A sweeeeeeet…
Nightingale
Carole King
Like some night
bird
Homeward wingin'
He seeks
The sheltered nest
Like the sailor's
Lost horizon
He needs
Some place to rest
The songs that he's
been singin'
No longer make much
sense
And those
strangers' cold perceptions
They've killed his
confidence
Nightingale
She sails away upon
a sea of song
Nightingale
She serenades his
lonely lonely life along
When his tired
voice is broken
His golden hope is
gone
She makes a lost
soul's simple longin’
Somehow not so
wrong
Nightingale
Nightingale
He was strong
But he was taken
By the thought
Of his success
Those spotlight
shadows
How they lured him
And took him
Like all the rest
But that old dream
don't look good now
No it don't seem
quite the same
He needs to hear a
tender word
Won't you sing him
home again
Nightingale
She sails away upon
a sea of song
Nightingale
She serenades his
lonely lonely life along
When his strength
is slowly goin'
His pride is all
but gone
She makes a foolish
dreamer listen
To one last song
Nightingale
Nightingale
Nightingale
Nightingale
Nightingale
Nightingale
