While You See a Chance

(SWinwood,WJennings)
Stand up in a clear blue morning
until you see what can be
Alone in a cold day dawning
Are you still free, can you be?
When some cold tomorrow finds you
When some sad old dream reminds you
how the endless road unwinds you
While you see a chance, take it
Find romance, fake it
Because it's all on you
Don't you know by now
noone gives you anything
Don't you wonder how you keep on moving
one more day your way
Your way
When theres noone left to leave you
Even you don't quite believe you
that's when nothing can decieve you
While you see a chance take it
Find romance, fake it
because it's all on you
Stand up in a clear blue morning
until you see what can be
Alone in a cold day dawning
Are you still free, can you be?
And that old grey wind is blowing
and there's nothing left worth knowing
and it's time you should be going
While you see a chance take it
Find romance, fake it
because it's all on you
While you see a chance take it
Find romance
While you see a chance take it
Find romance

Arc of a diver

(SWinwood,VStanshall)
She bathes me in sweetness I cannot reveal
For sharing dreams I need my woman
This humble expression meagerly dressed
my eyes so mean it has no meaning
But jealous night and all her secret chords
I must be deaf on the telephone
I need my love to translate
I play the piano no more running honey
This time to the sky I'll sing if clouds don't hear me
To the sun I'll cry and even if I'm blinded
I'll try moon gazer, because with you I'm stronger
I'll try moon gazer, because with you I'm stronger
I'll try moon gazer, because with you I'm stronger
Arc of a diver
effortlessly
my mind in sky and when I wake up
Daytime and nighttime I feel you near
Warm water breathing she helps me here
But jealous night and all her secret chords
I must be deaf on the telephone
I need my love to translate
This time to the sky I'll sing if clouds don't hear me
To the sun I'll cry and even if I'm blinded
I'll try moon gazer, because with you I'm stronger
But jealous night and all her secret chords
I must be deaf on the telephone
I need my love to translate
This time to the sky I'll sing if clouds don't hear me
To the sun I'll cry and even if I'm blinded
I'll try moon gazer, because with you I'm stronger
Lean streaky music, spawned on the streets
I hear it but with you I had to go
'Cause my rock 'n' roll is putting on weight
and the beat it goes on
Arc of a diver
effortlessly
my mind in sky and when I wake up
Daytime and nighttime I feel you near
Warm water breathing she helps me here
But jealous night and all her secret chords
I must be deaf on the telephone
I need my love to translate
With you my love we're going to raid the future
With you my love we're going to stick up the past
We'll hold today to ransom
'til our quartz clocks stop
Until yesterday
Until yesterday
Until yesterday
'til our quartz clocks stop

Second Hand Woman

(SWinwood,GFlemings)
Go down babe a slot machine to take my dime
Cunning diversion to pass the time
Flash in th pan a weekend trip in any town
She'll light the fuse and watch you drown
