"Walk On Frozen Water" lyrics
"Walk On Frozen Water"
I walked from Prague to Dusseldorf
From Germany to France
To earn a little extra there I learned to dance
And I'd dance with anyone, anyone who paid
The lean the mean the cruel and those of arbitrary ways
And in an arrondissement numberless I found I'd passed the test
No weeping in the rain, no weeping in the rain
No weeping in the rain
I only do what I do
Won't wish upon distant stars
Or weep over photographs
I walk on frozen water
Now I dream of America, remember nearly not a thing
I have the word "America" inscribed upon a ring
And wear it on my finger like a signpost and someday
I'll take the boat to Liverpool to New York and California
I hear the ocean's loud enough to swallow up your song
Without whom... nothing!
No weeping in the rain, no weeping in the rain
I'll only do what I do
Won't wish upon distant stars
Or weep over photographs
I'll walk on frozen water
I'll only do what I do
Won't wish upon distant stars
Or weep over photographs
Of what might have been ours
People will go when they go
Why you may never know
Until then by the grace of God
I'll walk on frozen water

Randy Crawford - "Captain Of Her Heart" It was way past midnight
And she still couldn't fall asleep
This night the dream was leavin'
She tried so hard to keep
And with the new day's dawnin'
She felt it driftin' away
Not only for a cruise,...
Al Stewart - "Almost Lucy" Lucy worked a different club every day,
And though she put her mind to it,
Her heart was never in it,
She stayed around just long enough to get paid,

China Crisis - "Wishful Thinking" It's time we should talk about it
There's no secrets kept in here

It's just wishful...
Neneh Cherry - "Woman" You gotta be fortunate
You gotta be lucky now
I was just sitting here
Thinking good and bad
But I'm the kinda woman
That was built to last
They tried erasing me
But they couldn't wipe out my past
