Sigh no more, lovers, sigh no more; Hearts were deceivers ever; One foot in sea and one on shore To one thing constant never; Then sigh not so But let them go And be you blithe and bonny; Converting all your sounds of woe Into. Hey nonny, nonny Sing no more ditties, sing no mo Or dumps so dull and heavy; The fraud of men was ever so Since summer first was leavy Then sigh not so But let them go And be you blithe and bonny Converting all your sounds of woe Into. Hey, nonny, nonny

You want a different home, You want different eyes, Love me You want a mountain, You want a coat, Love me You want a son or daughter, You want a kinder space, Love me You want a catapult, You want a coat, Love me Darling your shoes untied, And I can't read you when you're covering your eyes You want a different game, You want a stranger struggle, Love me, You want a wet voice, You want a coat, Love me Darling your shoes untied, And I can't read you when you're covering your eyes I might stand up and face these mirrors, Send a fist through them, Pry open those sticky hands of yours, Lend my strength to every last finger, Held so tightly, they won't touch a thing You want a different home, You want different eyes, Love me You want a different game, You want a stranger struggle, Love me

Turn Around 02:06
Where are you going, my little one, little one? Where are you going, my baby, my own? Turn around and you're two, Turn around and you're four, Turn around and you're a young girl, going out of my door Turn around, turn around, turn around and you're a young girl, going out of my door Where are you going, my little one, little one? Little dollies and bows, Oh where have you gone? Turn around and you're tiny, Turn around and you're grown, Turn around and you're a woman, going out on your own Turn around, turn around, turn around and you're a woman, with babes of your own Where are you going, my little one, little one? Where are you going, my baby, my own? [Note: the original lyrics can be found on Malvina Reynolds' website: http://www.malvinareynolds.com/mr175.htm]

It's high time to make a move. Things might not get better. There, I said it The last time you were feeling like this, you left with a light coat and near froze to death. Why don't you stay home where you're loved where you'll never be hungry or lost - no strangers, we. Not much I can think of... We cut down the oak last year. I know you can't stay very long But why do you run and run? The children you won't recognize, they're growing so fast, I can't keep up. Why don't you stay home where you're loved? No danger here left to feel. Why don't you stay home where you're loved where you'll never be hungry or lost - no stranger, me.

What's age my time been mine eight years Think clear hormones on the wane Traveled river and road well I found my pace drank my poison Broke precious demons over my knee and dragged them dredged them up Quaked for hours my hours know something know something know something know something

Hey hey hey the end is near On a good day you can see the end from here But I won't turn back now though the way is clear I will stay for the remainder I saw a life and I called it mine I saw it drawn so sweet and fine And I had begun to fill in all the lines Right down to what we'd name her Our nature does not change by will In the Winter 'round the ruined mill The creek is lying flat and still It is water though it's frozen So, across the years and miles and through On a good day you can feel my love for you Will you leave me be so that we can stay true To the path that you have chosen?

Black, black, black, is the color of my true love's hair her face is soft and wondrous fair the purest eyes and the surest hands I love the ground whereon she stands I love my love and well she knows I love the ground whereon she goes and soon I know that the time will come when she and I will be as one

Would oh would I were a kingfisher that flies with the halcyons along along the breaking waves with a fearless heart that noble bird that holy bird the deep blue of the ocean
10.
Home is where I want to be Pick me up and turn me 'round I feel numb, born with a weak heart I guess I must be having fun The less we say about it, the better We'll make it up as we go along Feet on the ground, head in the sky It's okay, I know nothing's wrong, nothing Hi-yeah, I got plenty of time Hi-yeah, you got light in your eyes And you're standing here beside me I love the passing of time Never for money, always for love Cover up and say goodnight, say goodnight Home is where I want to be But I guess I'm already there I come home, she lifted up her wings I guess that this must be the place I can't tell one from another Did I find you or you find me? There was a time before we were born If someone asks, this is where I'll be, where I'll be Hi-yeah, we drift in and out Hi-yeah, sing into my mouth Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home and Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me 'til my heart stops Love me 'til I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots, hit me on the head, Ooh... Hi-yeah, I got plenty of time Hi-yeah, you got light in your eyes
