Oh, Everything I do is wrong
I keep singing the same old song
And I try, oh lord, you know I try
but I keep on going along for the same old ride
but I feel alive
I feel alive .
Oh tell me to feel alright.
When I wake up
Oh next morning
I want to be in the arms of one who loves me.
She'll be sweet.
It don't take much to get next to me.
You can try oh you will see.
Just call my name it's made of
Wheat, and dairy, and bacon, tobacco smoke, merry weed, and all these things...
don't make me
you will see.
come on the other side...
look behind the wall
oh you won't fall,
because I'll be there to catch you.
It's not so scary you'll see.
We'll drive to some places and life by thee.
Well the first day
that I knew
I knew that I had something to prove.
There was something, oh buried in me.
Not gold, not treasure, not silver,
not something you can see.
take this light, I give it to thee,
Let it burn, oh joyfully,
Take a candle and spread the flame
you will see it come around again.
Come around again.

Oh, what kind of man do I want to be? I just want to seem happy.
Oh what kind of girl are you?
Hello little beauty. I'm nice, you'll see.
Reach out to me.
I'm lonely.
I don't mind, wasting time.
Oh lord it feels just fine, because it's mine.
And I don't care what people say,
I know that I'm ok.
So they say...
If you want to stay, stay with me.
Give me your hand I'll hold it so gently.
Oh, I grow older each day. But that's ok.
That's ok...

Oh everywhere I go, oh the world it changes so.
And everyone I see, I push away from me.
And all these things I've seen, are they real or just in me?
Oh, I'm going crazy.
Oh, I'm going crazy....
to be in love with thee.
Oh to be in love with thee.
Could you love me?
Do you love me?

The Song of Sam

Well I'm going, I'm going on. When I go, sing my song. Sing it loud, sing it strong. And sing through the days, that go all wrong.
I leave this world, with but one thing: all the love that I can bring.
And so I move, on this path, it's funny to think that I know, it won't last.
I wasn't born to last. I won't last.
Oh lord I see my, my destiny. I was meant to be alone. So that I can sing to the lord. You cruel cruel cruel man. You keep me locked up in this can. Don't you know who I am? I'm the world's latest man, Oh I'm the son of Sam.
So don't cry for me, I know where I'm going. This life I lead, is liable to drive me to ruin. But that don't mean no nothing. To me. Because I know that I was just born to be happy.
Take this weight, and put it on me. Let me carry it all, joyfully. Because for me, I just need to be, a part of thee.
And you say, who is this man? He's singing, oh with all he can. Oh listen to the son of Sam.
Oh, that's who I am!
Born to be a man.
Oh, I'm the son of Sam.
That's who I am.
I'm the son of Sam.
I'm the world's latest man.

I sing through the storm. I sing like I'm bored.
I bring, I bring with me: love.
So much love. So much love. So much love.
Oh everything.
Everything.
Everything is so beautiful!
