Very well done to all, even though you were out of practice, you came through with stellar results! Extra credit for Lyrical Liz and Corndog for above and beyond the call quizzing.
(oh, and it was Gary Wright who did Dream Weaver – I really thought it would be a more recognizable name. Did he do anything else?)
Now, on to the fresh meat:
1.
Outside the rain begins2.
And it may never end
So cry no more
On the shore, a dream
Will take us out to sea
Forever more forever more
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness3.
That everyone's heart isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
And Mr. Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town?4.
And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep her window shades all pulled completely down?
She’s got electric boots a mohair suit5.
You know I read it in a magazine
Well I tried to make it sunday, but I got so damn depressed6.
That I set my sights on monday and I got myself undressed
I ain’t ready for the altar but I do agree there’s times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine
Does any one know where the love of God goes7.
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
The searches all say they’d have made whitefish bay
If they’d put fifteen more miles behind her.
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn8.
Tryin’ to find a woman who’s never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself it’s not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
If you wanted the moon I would9.
try to make a start.
But I would rather you let me give my heart
In a coffee house Sebastian sat10.
And after every number they'd pass the hat
McGuinn and McGuire just a-gettin' higher
In L.A., you know where that's at
Suzanne calls from Boston the coffee's hot the corn is high
And that same sun that warms your heart will suck the good earth dry
