1 I LL NEVER BE THE SAME I ll never be the same skies have lost their meaning for me I ll never be the same things aint what they once used to be And when the song birds that sing Tell me it s spring, I can t believe their song Once love was king but kings can be wrong I ll never be the same There is such an ache in my heart I ll never be the same since we re apart But there s a lot that a smile can hide And I know deep down inside I ll never be the same, never be the same again

3 VAGABOND Dunno a heap about the what an why, Can t say s I ever knowed. Heaven to me s a fair blue stretch of sky, Earth s jest a dusty road. Dunno the names o thigs, nor what they are, Can t say s I ever will. Dunno about God - he s jest the noddin star Atop the windy hill. Dunno about Life - it s jest a tramp alone, From wakin -time to doss. Dunno about Death - it s jest a quiet stone All over-grey wi moss. An why I live, an why the old world spins, Are things I never knowed. My mark s the gypsy fires, the lonely inns, An jest the dusty road.

4 MARRIED TO THE SEA Well he stood before the ocean in the middle of the night And because he loved her so he asked her to be his wife. And then he closed his eyes and waited, and listened for an answer Until she kissed his feet and whispered, I could not give you my hand sir. Then as she walked him up and down along the shore She said, You re far too young to marry me, For I am old as old can be. And I ve been wed with many men, But for all my love I ve far outlived them all. So he went to her the next night all a-merried up with wine And he asked her for her long blue hand, for to hold with his entwined And then once again he waited and listened for a while. Until he heard her voice come crashing in the waves That broke all round for miles and miles. She said, How could I place my trust in thee, For I am bound and you are free? See so many men have took my hand, And so many of them left me for the land. There were fishermen, whalers, seamen and sailors, But for all it s just me and the moon. And for each star above me, ten more have loved me. How could it be different with you? So when it was quiet on the third night, he said, My life is in your hands. You can keep me for the time I have, Or I ll lie here on the sand. And it was quiet on the third night as he took off my shoes, But as he walked into her arms she said, Sure what have I to lose.

6 SNOWFLAKES IN THE SUN Maybe we never had a chance I ll put it down to happenstance but I m still glad you came alone love was here then it was gone just like snowflakes in the sun I took you skating in the park figures of eight in the dark I thought this one was the one but then I let the morning come melted like snowflakes in the sun everyone is different there s no two that are the same these miracles of moments that won t pass our way again but theres one thing I know is true above the clouds the sky is blue and I m the same as anyone there may be tears we ll let them run they ll fade like snowflakes in the sun they ll melt like snowflakes in the sun
