ATF: Daily Escapes

This series will include as many of my all-time favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak).  Now, each one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered.  For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others.  So, this will not be a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter.  Besides, with no countdown, this could go on forever and ever!  Oh, and despite the fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make.  For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.



Dreamer
Supertramp
Dreamer
You know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head
Oh no
I said
Dreamer
You're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head
Oh no

I said
Far out
What a day
A year
A life it is
You know
Well you know
You had
It comin' to you
Now
There's not
A lot I can do

Dreamer
You stupid little dreamer
So now you put your head in your hands
Oh no

Woo

I said
Far out
What a day
A year
A life this is
You know
Well you know
You had
It comin' to you
Now
There's not
A lot I can do

Work it out someday

If I could see something
You can see anything
You want boy
If I could be someone
You can be anyone
Celebrate boy
Well, if I could do something
You can do something
If I could do anything
But can you do something
Out of this world

Out of this world

Take a dream
On a Sunday
Take a life
Take a holiday
Take a lie
Take a dreamer
Dream
Dream
Dream
Dream
Dream along

Dreamer
Dream
Dream along
C'mon
And dream
And dream along
C'mon
And dream
And dream along
C'mon
And dream
And dream along

Dreamer
You know you are a dreamer
C'mon
And dream
And dream along
C'mon
And dream
And dream along
Can you put your hands in your head
Oh no
C'mon

I said
Dreamer
You're nothing but a dreamer
C'mon
And dream
And dream
Along
C'mon
And dream
And dream
Along
Can you put your hands in your head
Oh no
Oh no

Hitch a Ride
Boston
Day is night in New York City
Smoke like water runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living thing that's died

Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sunlight's another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time

Ooooh
Yeah

Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry
Words of hail their minds are into
I've got to crack this ice and fly

Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sunlight's another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time

Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sunlight's another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time

Take the Long Way Home
Supertramp
So you think you're a Romeo
Playing a part in a picture show
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
‘Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood
Why should you care if you're feeling good
Take the long way home
Take the long way home

But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery
All the greenery
Is comin' down boy

And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture
Oh it's peculiar
She used to be so nice

When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home
You never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
Take the long way home

And when you're up on the stage
It's so unbelievable
Unforgettable
How they adore you
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity
Oh calamity
Is there no way out

Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe
Oh it has to be
For you to grow boy
When you look through the years
And see what you could have been
Oh what you might have been
If you'd had more time

So when the day comes to settle down
Who's to blame if you're not around
You took the long way home
You took the long way home…



Road to Nowhere
Ozzy Osbourne
I was looking back on my life
And all the things have come to me
I'm still looking for the answers
I'm still searching for the key

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream
The road to nowhere
Leads to me

Through all the happiness and sorrow
I guess I'd do it all again
Live for today and die tomorrow
It's still the road that never ends

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream
The road to nowhere
Leads to me

Ah Ah
Ah Ah
The road to nowhere's gonna pass me by
Ah ah
Ah ah
I hope we never have to say goodbye
I never wanna live without you
Yeah

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream
The road to nowhere
Leads to me
The road to nowhere
Leads to me
The road to nowhere
Leads to me
You got
You got
You got
To lead to me
The road to nowhere
Leads to me
You got
You got
You got
To lead to me
You got
You got
You got
To lead to me
Oh
The road to nowhere

ATF: Give and Take II

This weekly series will include as many of my all-time favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak).  Now, each one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered.  For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others.  So, this will not be a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter.  Besides, with no countdown, this could go on forever and ever!  Oh, and despite the fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make.  For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.



Give a Little Bit
Supertramp
Ooh yeah

Alright

De de
Oh oh
Na na
Hey hey

I'll give a little bit of my love to you
There's so much that we need to share
So send a smile
And show you care

Alright
I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my life for you
So give a little bit
Oh give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely eyes
Oh take his hand
You'll be surprised
Oh take his hand

Oh yeah

Come along

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Aaah
Louder

Yeah

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me

I'll give a little bit of my life for you
Now's the time that we need to share
So find yourself
We're on our way
Back home
Ohh goin' home
Don't you need
Don't you need to feel at home
Oh yeah
We gotta sing

Ooh yeah
Gotta get a feelin'

Come come come come along
Ooh yeah
Come along too
Ooh yeah
Come along
Say take a look
Come along too
Come along right
Come along way
Sing it tonight
Ooh ooh



Take It to the Limit
The Eagles
All alone at the end of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinkin’
About a woman
Who might have loved me
And I never knew
You know I've always been a dreamer
Spent my life runnin’ around
And it's so hard to change
Can't seem to settle down
But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turnin’ out
And burnin’ out
And turnin’ out
The same

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it
To the limit
One more time

You can spend all your time makin’ money
You can spend all your love makin’ time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine
And when you're lookin’ for your freedom
Nobody seems to care
And you can't find the door
Can't find it anywhere
When there's nothin’ to believe in
Still you're comin’ back
You're runnin’ back
You're comin’ back
For more

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it
To the limit
One more time

Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
One more time
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
One more time
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
One more time
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
Take it
To the limit
One more time
