Bruce Springstein, Dancing in the Dark

Lyrics:

I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
I check my look in the mirror
I want to change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older
There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
Come on baby this laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town
And they'll be carving you up alright
They say you gotta stay hungry
Hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on now baby gimme just one look

You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Hey baby

There is a mixed artist C&W album called Amazing Grace; a country salute to gospel music. For a long time it has been one of my favorite albums. Very soothing.
There is a particularly lovely version of In The Garden on it. Also Beulah Land and Shenandoah are found on there. I did a rather bad job of trying to sing these at a recent meetup. The songs are actually lovely.

The future´s something we can barely see
there´s something missing in the way we feel
and I have noticed
in myself that I can´t let it go
wanna make a difference
and believe in what we´re gonna show

gotta understand how things could be this way
u make a difference in a different way
and i´ve been feelin
how u show our love so easily
now i know how we could be
forever caught in time

when it comes to loving we´re gonna seize the day
never knew that we could ever be this way
cause i´ve been searching
deep within and out of every door
now i know this feelin
i wont ever let u down

you give me something i can feel it in my soul
when it comes to loving u i lose my self-control
always thought that this was it and u´re gonna be the last
now we see the future coming, we cant forget the past

Looking back and all we´ve had to get on through
when it really mattered it was there for me and u
now our world is changing we got to see what we´re gonna do
i know youre here for me and i will always ...

Want u in my soul
i want u in my soul, said i want u in my soul
your love to me is gold
your love to me is gold, your love to me is gold
This thing i cant control
this thing i cant control, this thing i cant control
just let this feling go
gonna let the feeling go, gonna let the feeling go

Our past has been but we cant let it go
just looking back on all the things we´ve done
and i have noticed
in myself i could have changed it all
gonna make a difference
and believe in what we´re gonna show

gotta stand alone and try to lead the way
i made my feelings known in every day
and i´ve been seeing
how u make your peace within so easily
now i know that love will be
forever caught in time

when it comes to changing i´m gonna be that one
don't have regrets for all the things i´ve done
and i´m believing
deep within the core of every soul
now i know the reason
u wont ever let me down

You give me something i can feel it in my soul
when it comes to loving u i lose my self-control
always thought that this was it and u´re gonna be the last
now we see the future common and we cant forget the past

looking back and all we´ve had to get on through
when it really mattered it was there for me and u
now our world is changing we got to see what we´re gonna do
i know you're here for me and i will always ...

'Hands On The Wheel" by Willie Nelson

_https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71cIYDnDZUk

At a time when the world seems to be spinnin' hopelessly out of control,
There's deceivers an' believers an' old in-betweeners,
That seem to have no place to go.
Well, it's the same old song, it's right an' it's wrong,
An' livin' is just somethin' that I do.
An' with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes,
An' I found myself in you.

I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars.
An' I've nearly gone up in smoke.
Now my hand's on the wheel, I've something that's real,
An' I feel like I'm goin' home.

An' in the shade of an oak down by the river,
Sit an old man an' a boy,
Settin' sail, spinnin' tales an' fishin' for whales,
With a lady they both enjoy.
Well, it's the same damn tune, it's the man in the moon.
It's the way that I feel about you.
An' with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes,
An' I found myself in you.

An' I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars.
An' I've nearly gone up in smoke.
Now my hand's on the wheel, I've something that's real,
An' I feel like I'm goin' home.
