Arriba   Talkin' About (R. Berry)

Tell me what can I do' I sit here wondering if the things you say are true
But, oh, so many times, I believed in something that just melted into lies
But, oh, is it just a dream or is it so
You're pretending not to see, you're pretending not to see

I'm talking 'bout you, I'm talking 'bout me
And everything that we could do, and everything that we could be

Tell me why you don't show
When I look into your eyes the both of us should know
But I, I just don't know, am I right in holding on or should I just let go'
But, oh, is it just a dream, or is it so, oh, you're pretending not to see

I'm talking 'bout you, yeah, I'm talking 'bout me
And everything that we could do
And everything that we could be, yeah, I'm talking 'bout

Oh, I'm talking 'bout you, oh, I'm talking 'bout me
And everything that we could do, and everything that we could be, yeah
I'm talking 'bout you, oh, I'm talking 'bout me
And everything that we could do, and everything that we could be, yeah

Arriba   Lover to Lover (Emerson, Berry, Palmer)

Tell me is there something that I should know?
Are we wasting time, have nowhere to go
Why do we say that everything's all right?
We'll take the tears
Those wasted nights sit without a sound
Inside our world that it's breaking down, we lie there

Lover to lover, face to face, tearing apart all that we made
Thinking each other's the one to blame, lover to lover there's nothing 2 gain

Give me something back so we can hold on
And keep it together, we must stay strong
Did we let go as time moved on, oh the same old line
The lights go out lying wide awake
The words don't come how much will it take, we lie there

Lover to lover, face to face, tearing apart all that we made
Thinking each other's the one to blame, lover to lover there's nothing 2 gain

No one could take away that feeling
Lost in our world we found a dream worth building
Oh and all of it felt so right, so much of life to live, oh oh oh

Whoa oh, lover to lover, face to face, tearing apart all that we made
Thinking each other's the one to blame, lover to lover there's nothing 2 gain
Whoa oh, lover to lover, face to face, tearing apart all that we made
Thinking each other's the one to blame, lover to lover there's nothing 2 gain
Lover to lover, face to face, tearing apart all that we made
Thinking each other's the one to blame, lover to lover
 
Arriba   Chains (Shifrin, Marlette)

We shadow dance, you follow me, and that's the way it has to be
'Cause even though we've got no strings, you are tied to me
You never tried to turn away, unspoken touch to make you stay
And though it isn't  written in stone, you belong to me
And when we get this close in the night, the circle closes in uptight
And it's like we're in

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together
Chains chains there's nowhere to escape
I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Just like the wind you're free to go, without your body or your soul
Oh you gave it to me long ago, you belong to me
And when we get this close in the night
Whoa whoa whoa, the circle closes in uptight, and it's like we're in

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together
Chains chains there's nowhere to escape
I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together
Chains chains there's nowhere to escape
I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever
Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together
Chains chains there's nowhere to escape
I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever
Chains chains the kind that won't break
 
Arriba   La Vista (Emerson, Berry, Palmer)

Fortunes drifting across the sierra...Life, survived in visions of gold...
Spanish galleons of old upon El Man
Dance of a distant land from afar...Con La Vista Desde la vida...
  
Arriba   Frontera (Emerson)

= Instrumental =
  
Arriba   Sangre de Toro (Emerson, Palmer)

Time to awaken daybreak begun, feeling so strong here in the sun
The work has to be done, will be done
One thing that is believed we'll be one, but is there more Desde la vida.

Sangre de toro, drinking the wine, beneath  la montan  the shadows of time
Work now is done, has been done, struggle that still goes on will be won
Knowing there's more Desde la vida.

Again we awaken there in the face of the sun
El tiempo es buena, the time is good, a new day is born into our hands
Together we fall, together we stand, hoping there's more Desde la vida.
  
Arriba   Eight Miles High (Clark, McGuinn, Crosby)

Eight miles high, and when you touch down
No time can be stranger than now
Signs on the street, and where are we going
Out somewhere just to be alone

Nowhere near, what can be found
Among us we can't lose more ground
Time may tell, long though it sounds
These places our faces abound.

Out in square, lives covered in stone
Some laughing most won't take stand
Sidewalk of dreams, as far as one sees
Some living some standing alone
 
Arriba   Runaway (R. Berry)

You're headed for a better life, something you can feel deep inside
Somewhere where the lights are low, and there ain't nobody around to go
Saying things that just ain't true, making such a fool out of you
They think they know just where you've been
And they make you feel like living is a sin

So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon, you say there's nothing else you can do
Oh can't you see I'm just a runaway too, oh but you keep on running

Been livin' in, been livin' out, you want to know what life's all about
You're finding that it ain't as good, it don't do what they told you it would
So now's the time 2 make it right, you'll walk on out when no one's in sight
I still think there's a better way, but you can't find a reason to stay

So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon, you say there's nothing else you can do
So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon (Tell me to find me there)
You say there's nothing else you can do
Oh can't you see I'm just a runaway too, oh, oh oh

You're headed for a better life, something you can feel deep inside
Somewhere where the lights are low, and there ain't nobody around to go
Saying things that just ain't true, making such a fool out of you
They think they know just where you've been
And they make you feel like living is a sin

So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon (Tell me to find me there)
You say there's nothing else you can do
So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon (You tell me to find me baby)
You say there's nothing else you can do
Oh can't you see baby, oh can't you see, can't you see'
You keep running, you're running and running and
Run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon (Tell me to find me there)
You say there's nothing else you can do
So you run run runaway, and tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon (Oh baby tell me to find me baby)
You say there's nothing else you can do
 
Arriba   You Do Or You Don't (R. Berry)

Have we been pretending we live this street life
Once the tough ones thinking now we're grown
You say the feelings are changing now with every night
Don't know where a lonely rebel goes.

On the other side you found something different
The other side of life you say you've never known.

But either you do or you don't
Girl can't you tell me
Either you will or you won't
Gotta make up your mind
You either go or you stay
There ain't no pretending
We've gotta do together and keep our love alive.

Keep turning back the pages
Pictures of a time that kept us strong
Pieces of a life that we gave meaning
How can you wonder if those days are gone.

On the side you heard the mind rest easy
The other side of life you say you need to know.

Chorus

Can you just give up what your heart still tells you
The very thing that kept our hopes alive.

But the other side you say that we could make it
The other side of life will keep us both alive.

Chorus
  
Arriba   On My Way Home (Emerson)

On my way home
Marching all night, is the light still on?
All through the battle been waiting
On my way home, so much of life left behind
So much ahead
 
On my way home
Marching all night, is the light still on?
All through the battle been waiting
On my way home, so much of life left behind
So much ahead unknown
On my way home
Marching all night, is the light still on?
All through the battle been waiting
On my way home, so much of life left behind
So much ahead unknown
On my way home
Marching all night, is the light still on?
All through the battle been waiting
On my way home, so much of life left behind
So much ahead unknown
