A Cry In The Forest lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
There's a cry in the forest, it's feathered and brown
And it echoes off of nothing as the trees come down
It's the sound of a sparrow hittin' the ground
It's the sound of one eternity bound
It's the sound of one eternity bound
There's a cry in the oceans, it's plaintive and blue
And it rises from the depths, breaks my heart in two
It's the dreams of the great whales running aground
For they know that they're eternity bound
For they know that they're eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once they've passed into the timeless, they can never more be found
Is there anybody listening, tell me can you hear the sound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
There's a cry in the heart of every woman and man
We've been crying in the darkness since the world began
Will we ever seek forgiveness, will we ever earn the crown
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once we've past into the timeless, we can never more be found
Is there anybody listening, tell me can you hear the sound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
And it echoes off of nothing as the trees come down
It's the sound of a sparrow hittin' the ground
It's the sound of one eternity bound
It's the sound of one eternity bound
There's a cry in the oceans, it's plaintive and blue
And it rises from the depths, breaks my heart in two
It's the dreams of the great whales running aground
For they know that they're eternity bound
For they know that they're eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once they've passed into the timeless, they can never more be found
Is there anybody listening, tell me can you hear the sound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
There's a cry in the heart of every woman and man
We've been crying in the darkness since the world began
Will we ever seek forgiveness, will we ever earn the crown
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once we've past into the timeless, we can never more be found
Is there anybody listening, tell me can you hear the sound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Hearts And Crafts lyrics -Dan Fogelberg
Handing me a looking glass
You asked me who it was I saw
But if I was to answer you
You know I'd surely answer wrong
'Cause I've loved you too long
I've loved you too long
Turning halfway toward the sun
You asked me to become your shade
But why should I be made to run
At the end of the parade?
Love is not that way at all
Love is not that way
Looking back now toward the start
You said you thought I'd lost my path
And I asked if you still considered love an art
And you said, "No, I think it's more a craft"
And I just turned and laughed
I just had to turn and laugh
You asked me who it was I saw
But if I was to answer you
You know I'd surely answer wrong
'Cause I've loved you too long
I've loved you too long
Turning halfway toward the sun
You asked me to become your shade
But why should I be made to run
At the end of the parade?
Love is not that way at all
Love is not that way
Looking back now toward the start
You said you thought I'd lost my path
And I asked if you still considered love an art
And you said, "No, I think it's more a craft"
And I just turned and laughed
I just had to turn and laugh
Language Of Love lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
She says no
She means yes
And what she wants
You know that I can't guess
When we want more
You know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
One cries foul
Will not speak
The other claims a little victory
But all the time
You know we fail to see
This is the language of love
It's tooth for tooth
Eye for eye
We hide our hearts
And then we won't say why
It's truth for truth
Lie for lie
Such is the language of love
I say leave
When I mean stay
But she don't see
And so she moves away
What we really want
You know we rarely say
Such is the language of love
When a loves begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
We hem and haw
We balk and bluff
Our words don't ever seem to
Say enough
A simple smile
A tender touch
Speaks the true language of love
When a loves begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
She says no
She means yes
And what she wants
You know that I can't guess
When we want more
You know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
Such is the language of love
She means yes
And what she wants
You know that I can't guess
When we want more
You know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
One cries foul
Will not speak
The other claims a little victory
But all the time
You know we fail to see
This is the language of love
It's tooth for tooth
Eye for eye
We hide our hearts
And then we won't say why
It's truth for truth
Lie for lie
Such is the language of love
I say leave
When I mean stay
But she don't see
And so she moves away
What we really want
You know we rarely say
Such is the language of love
When a loves begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
We hem and haw
We balk and bluff
Our words don't ever seem to
Say enough
A simple smile
A tender touch
Speaks the true language of love
When a loves begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
She says no
She means yes
And what she wants
You know that I can't guess
When we want more
You know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
Such is the language of love
Make Love Stay lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
Hard days I'm travelling
Alone for too long
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm always somewhere
That I never belong
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm moving so fast now
It doesn't seem true
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm getting closer
But I don't know what to
Ooh, I'm missing you.
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life.
This life I'm living's
Getting so hard to feel
Ooh, I'm missing you
The days are empty
And the nights are unreal
Ooh, I'm missing you
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life
All of the days of my life.
Hard days I'm travelling
Alone for too long
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm always somewhere
That I never belong
Ooh, I'm missing you.
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life
All of the days of my life.
All of the days of my life.
Alone for too long
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm always somewhere
That I never belong
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm moving so fast now
It doesn't seem true
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm getting closer
But I don't know what to
Ooh, I'm missing you.
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life.
This life I'm living's
Getting so hard to feel
Ooh, I'm missing you
The days are empty
And the nights are unreal
Ooh, I'm missing you
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life
All of the days of my life.
Hard days I'm travelling
Alone for too long
Ooh, I'm missing you
I'm always somewhere
That I never belong
Ooh, I'm missing you.
Oho, If I had you beside me
Then I just might sleep through the night
Your love is the promise that guides me
All of the days of my life
All of the days of my life.
All of the days of my life.

Over And Over lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
Well I got a lover and I got a friend
She says that she will love me, until the very end
She knows that she's my baby, she knows she's my very best friend
And when I'm down and broken, well she make me whole again
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
She knows when I feel lonesome, oh she knows when I feel blue
She knows when I am tired and she knows just what to do
She kiss me oh so tender and hold me oh so tight
She wraps her arms around me and she make everything alright
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over
Please little darlin' won't ya let me love ya
Over and over again
Over and over again
She says that she will love me, until the very end
She knows that she's my baby, she knows she's my very best friend
And when I'm down and broken, well she make me whole again
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
She knows when I feel lonesome, oh she knows when I feel blue
She knows when I am tired and she knows just what to do
She kiss me oh so tender and hold me oh so tight
She wraps her arms around me and she make everything alright
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
All I want to do, all I want to do, all I want to do
Is to love her, is to love that girl over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over
Please little darlin' won't ya let me love ya
Over and over again
Over and over again
Road Beneath My Wheels lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
Well I'm a runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Said I'm runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Who knows the way I feel
Said my woman up and left me
Left me for some other guy
Said my woman up and left me
Left me for some other guy
You know I never understand it
Though I try and I try and I try
Well I'm a runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Said I'm runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Who knows the way I feel
Got the road beneath my wheels
Said I'm runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Who knows the way I feel
Said my woman up and left me
Left me for some other guy
Said my woman up and left me
Left me for some other guy
You know I never understand it
Though I try and I try and I try
Well I'm a runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Said I'm runnin' down the highway
Got the road beneath my wheels
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Who knows the way I feel
Since You've Asked lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
(originally by Judy Collins)
What I'll give you
Since you've asked
Is all my time together
Take the rugged sunny days
The warm and rocky weather
Take the roads that I have walked along
Looking for tomorrow's time
Peace of mind --
As your life spills into mine
Changing with the seasons
Filling up the world with time
Changing time to reasons
I can show you all the songs
That I never sang to someone before.
We have seen a million stars
Lying by the water
You have climbed the hills with me
To the mountain shelter
Taking off the days
One by one
Setting them to breathe
In the sun.
Take the lilies and the Lace
From the days of childhood
All the willow winding paths
Leading up and outward
This is what I give
This is what I ask you for
Nothing more.
What I'll give you
Since you've asked
Is all my time together
Take the rugged sunny days
The warm and rocky weather
Take the roads that I have walked along
Looking for tomorrow's time
Peace of mind --
As your life spills into mine
Changing with the seasons
Filling up the world with time
Changing time to reasons
I can show you all the songs
That I never sang to someone before.
We have seen a million stars
Lying by the water
You have climbed the hills with me
To the mountain shelter
Taking off the days
One by one
Setting them to breathe
In the sun.
Take the lilies and the Lace
From the days of childhood
All the willow winding paths
Leading up and outward
This is what I give
This is what I ask you for
Nothing more.
Song For A Carpenter lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
Oh, he makes his life as a carpenter
He works his hands in wood
And he lives the way his granddad
Might have liked and understood
He goes to work each morning
And he comes home every night
And the time that passes in between
He knows has been spent right
A child in South Ohio
A man in Northern Maine
He took his dream
To the end of the world
And he brought it home again
Here he met his sweet Rebeckah
Here he came to make his stand
In a house he built in the piney woods
Where the ocean meets the land
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Oh, his hair is rough and curly
And his legs they reach the ground
And his eyes are full of living
And his back is broad and brown
And his heart is sure and stubborn
And his pride's too strong to bend
And somewhere in his life
He found the time to be my friend
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Oh, he loves his sweet Rebeckah
He'll love her 'til his death
And she gave to him a bonny son
And they named the child Seth
And now they are a family
A community of three
Living in the piney woods
Where the soil meets the sea
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Born of the carpenter's hand
He works his hands in wood
And he lives the way his granddad
Might have liked and understood
He goes to work each morning
And he comes home every night
And the time that passes in between
He knows has been spent right
A child in South Ohio
A man in Northern Maine
He took his dream
To the end of the world
And he brought it home again
Here he met his sweet Rebeckah
Here he came to make his stand
In a house he built in the piney woods
Where the ocean meets the land
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Oh, his hair is rough and curly
And his legs they reach the ground
And his eyes are full of living
And his back is broad and brown
And his heart is sure and stubborn
And his pride's too strong to bend
And somewhere in his life
He found the time to be my friend
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Oh, he loves his sweet Rebeckah
He'll love her 'til his death
And she gave to him a bonny son
And they named the child Seth
And now they are a family
A community of three
Living in the piney woods
Where the soil meets the sea
And it's hey-ho, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land
Hey-ho, blessed is the home
Born of the carpenter's hand
Born of the carpenter's hand
Tell Me To My Face lyrics - Dan Fogelberg
(originally by The Hollies)
And though you try to
Justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door you're not
Deceiving me
Well, I'd have thought that
You'd have known much better
Sending 'round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much
Better now.
Is it just that you
Can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say
Goodbye
How would you feel here
In my place.
And now I know my love
Is lost on you
And nothing you can say or do
Will turn my head around
I'd have thought you'd
Have decency
To come and tell the truth to me
Instead of telling lies
Your eyes betray.
Is it just that you
Can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say
Goodbye
How would you feel here
In my place.
Tell me to my face
You're leaving now.
Tell me to my face
You're leaving now.
And though you try to
Justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door you're not
Deceiving me
Well, I'd have thought that
You'd have known much better
Sending 'round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much
Better now.
Is it just that you
Can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say
Goodbye
How would you feel here
In my place.
And now I know my love
Is lost on you
And nothing you can say or do
Will turn my head around
I'd have thought you'd
Have decency
To come and tell the truth to me
Instead of telling lies
Your eyes betray.
Is it just that you
Can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say
Goodbye
How would you feel here
In my place.
Tell me to my face
You're leaving now.
Tell me to my face
You're leaving now.
