4. Flyin’ shoes
LP/cd op Tomato uit 1978
Vliegschoenen
Om te ontsnappen …
aan de ellende, het gedoe

5. Flyin’ shoes
Days full of rain, sky’s comin' down again
I get so tired of these same old blues
same old song
Baby, it won't be long 'fore I’ll be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes my flyin’ shoes
flyin' shoes till I be tyin' on my flyin' shoes

6. Spring only sighed summer had to be satisfied
and fall is a feelin' that I just can't lose.
I'd like to stay and watch a winter’s day
turn the green water to white and blue
flyin' shoes flyin' shoes
till I be tyin' on my flyin' shoes

7. The mountain moon forever sets too soon
and bein' alone is all the hills can do
alone and then her silver sails again
and I will follow in their flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes
I will follow in their flyin' shoes

8. Days full of rain sky’s comin' down again
I get so tired of these same old blues
same old song
Baby, it won't be long till I be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes flyin’ shoes
flyin’shoes flyin’shoes

11. Tower song
So close and yet so far away
And all the things I'd hoped to say
Will have to go unsaid today
Perhaps until tomorrow

12. Tower song
Your fears have built a wall between
Our lives and all that loving means
Will have to go unfelt it seems
And that leaves only sorrow
You built your tower strong and tall
Can't you see, it's got to fall someday

13. Tower song
You close your eyes and speak to me
Of faith and love and destiny
As distant as eternity
From truth and understanding

14. Tower song
The wind blows cold outside your door
It whispers words I've tried before
But you don't hear me anymore
Your pride's just too demanding
You built your tower strong and tall
Can't you see, it's got to fall someday

15. Tower songThe end is coming soon it's plain
A warm bed just ain't worth the pain
And I will go and you'll remain
With the bitterness we've tasted
A mother's breast, a newborn child
A poet tears and a drunken smile
But I can't help feelin' all the while
Their meaning won't be wasted

16. Tower song
You built your tower strong and tall
Can't you see, it's got to fall someday
