Wild Rose 03:31
Sunrise in the morning Birds singing on every tree A greeting and a warning The song that they're singing is “Be free!” Young rambler on the roadside All around the world he goes Never knowing what he will find in his quest for the great unknown Wild rose in the forest Wild rose on the moor Dawn mist on the mountain Combers crashing on the shore We rejoin our hero as he wanders from door to door A heart full of legend Dreams of love on a foreign shore Wild rose in the forest Wild rose on the moor Dawn mist on the mountain Combers crashing on the …. Wild rose in the forest Wild rose on the moor Dawn mist on the mountain Combers crashing on the shore

Alone and lost out on the edge of the wheel and it's turning Check out the bridges to the way you used to feel and they're burning Sinking down and rising Lost in compromising The bottom drops out and you fall into the space Left by the things that you were losing while you tried to save face Another turn of the wheel's gone round leaving something else to rise above One more emotional deal's gone down Another trial for the power of love "I never meant for it to be like this" We've all heard the story Just can't remember all the reasons why you're saying that you're sorry Rational but mindless Self-inflicted blindness Never realizing it might just be too late For all the people you were using cause you couldn't think straight. Another turn of the wheel's gone round leaving something else to rise above One more emotional deal's gone down Another trial for the power of love Another turn of the wheel's gone round leaving something else to rise above One more emotional deal's gone down Another trial for the power of love (Geoff Panting)

Mountainside 02:48
When I left home it seems so long ago Just where I travelled sometimes I don’t know Years full of images fading away Searching, yearning to get back one day High as a mountainside High as a mountainside Then came a day the ship ran aground I felt my heart beat and the world spin around Now when I looked I could just see the end of the road and the children were playing “lets pretend” I was High as a mountainside High as a mountainside Wings of a raven high over me Making me think on the meaning of free Still I’m a man not a bird in the sky These days when I’m happy I’ve stopped asking why High as a mountainside High as a mountainside (Dave Panting)

Colleen 04:03
Ring-down on a barstool Death of a lonely night Front door blows open In walks a welcome sight Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? It's good to see you It's been too long a time I heard that you were uptown commitin' yourself a crime Well if you're a fallen angel you still look good to me Let us raise a glass now to future memories Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? It's good to see you It's been too long a time I heard that you were uptown commitin' yourself a crime Well if you're a fallen angel you still look good to me Let us raise a glass now to future memories Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? Colleen! Where ya been? (Dave Panting)

Shaken Up 03:01
You get to feeling shaken up with the way your time gets taken up Yeah and every time you’re wakin’ up Something else has gone wrong You get hung up about the telephone and then you try to make like your not home Worrying about the seed you’ve sown Well they’ve grow tall and strong In between the deceiving we’d like to keep on believing That we’re all living not just breathing Pressure to the left and right Public opinion changes overnight Enough to make you loose your appetite or your sense of well being And you can read between the lines each day about how some poor suckers gotta pay For the paving of a better way Well believing is seeing In between the deceiving we’d like to keep on believing That we’re all living not just breathing (Dave Panting)

t's time for the loner to pay his dues It's time for the guitar to play the blues You've been running now you got no choice but to face what you've been afraid of It's time to be haunted by the ghost of love The leaves are falling through my reverie They waltz like fire on the autumn breeze I'm walking alone The wind in the trees up above Crying with the voice of the ghost of love The leaves are falling through my reverie They waltz like fire on the autumn breeze I'm walking alone The wind in the trees up above Crying with the voice of the ghost of love It's time for the loner to pay his dues It's time for the guitar to play the blues You've been running now you got no choice but to face what you've been afraid of It's time to be haunted by the ghost of love (Dave Panting)
