Living in the material world

Living in the material world

I’m living in the material world
Living in the material world

can’t say what I’m doing here
But I hope to see much clearer,
after living in the material world

I got born into the material world
Getting worn out in the material world
Use my body like a car,
Taking me both near and far
Met my friends all in the material world

Met them all there in the material world
John and Paul here in the material world
Though we started out quite poor
We got ‘Richie’ on a tour
Got caught up in the material world

From the Spiritual Sky,
Such sweet memories have I
To the Spiritual Sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
that I won’t get lost
or go astray

As I’m fated for the material world
Get frustrated in the material world
Senses never gratified
Only swelling like a tide
That could drown me in the
material world

From the Spiritual Sky,
Such sweet memories have I
To the Spiritual Sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
that I won’t get lost
or go astray

While I’m living in the material world
Not much ‘giving’ in the material world
Got a lot of work to do
Try to get a message through
And get back out of this material world

I’m living in the material world
Living in the material world
I hope to get out of this place
by the LORD SRI KRSNA’S GRACE
My salvation from the material world
Big Ending

That’s what it takes

That’s what it takes

And now it begins to shine
And you found the eyes to see
Each little drop at dawn of ev’ry day

Your smile, it comes back to me
And whatever you may say
Don’t let it stop, never fade away

As we got to get out in this world together, oh
Doesn’t really matter if we start to make some changes, oh

If that’s what it takes (that’s what it takes)
Then I’ve got to be strong (that’s what it takes)
Don’t want to be wrong
If that’s what it takes

The closer I get (that’s what it takes)
Into that open door (what it takes)
I’ve got to be sure
If that’s what it takes

And now that it’s shining through
And you can see all this world
Don’t let it stop, never fade away

If we got to be in this life forever, oh-oh
Then we’d better be taking all the chances, oh oh

If that’s what it takes (that’s what it takes)
Then I’ve got to be strong (that’s what it takes)
Don’t want to be wrong
If that’s what it takes

The closer I get (that’s what it takes)
Into that open door (what it takes)
I’ve got to be sure
If that’s what it takes

That’s what it takes, that’s what it takes
That’s what it takes, that’s what it takes
(That’s) what it takes, that’s what it takes
That’s what it takes, (that’s) what it takes
That’s what it takes, oh, that’s what it takes

(repeat and fade:)
Oh, that’s what it takes

The day the world gets round

The day the world gets round

The day the world gets ’round
to understanding where it is,
Using all it’s found,
to help each other, hand in hand

The day the world gets ’round
to understanding where it’s gone
Losing so much ground
killing each other, hand in hand
Such foolishness in man
I want no part of their plan – OH NO

If you’re the destructive kind
Now I’m working from day to day
As I don’t want to be like you
I look for the pure of heart
And the ones that have made a start,

But Lord, there are just a few
who bow before you,
in silence they pray,

Oh how they pray for the day the
world gets ’round

Using all they’ve found
To help each other, hand in hand

The Day The World Gets ‘Round

While my guitar gently weeps

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at you all
see the love there that’s sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor
and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know why nobody told you
how to unfold your love
I don’t know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it’s turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don’t know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all see the love there that’s sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
..Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

While my guitar gently weeps

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at you all
see the love there that’s sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor
and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know why nobody told you
how to unfold your love
I don’t know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it’s turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don’t know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all see the love there that’s sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
..Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

The light that has lighted the world

The light that has lighted the world

I’ve heard how some people, have said
that I’ve changed
That I’m not what I was
How it really is a shame
The thoughts in their heads,
Manifest on their brow
Like bad scars from ill feelings
they themselves arouse
So hateful of anyone that is happy
or ‘free’
They live all their lives,
without looking to see
The light that has lighted the world

It’s funny how people, just won’t
accept change
As if nature itself – they’d prefer
re-arranged
So hard to move on
When you’re down in a hole
Where there’s so little chance,
to experience soul

I’m greatful to anyone,
that is happy or ‘free’
for giving me hope
while I’m looking to see

The light that has lighted the world

Never get over you

Never get over you

I know I’ll never get over you
So deep this feeling that I have for you
Your eyes pierce through my heart
Your smile tears me apart
I knew it, it’s so true
I’ve never get over you

You touch me making my heart race
So much was written on your face
I knew when you arrived
That no words could describe
What your love made me do
I’ll never get over you

Girl, you’re so much heart and soul
Girl, since the moonlit night you came into my life
And now this feeling has grown
And if you leave me alone I know
I’ll never get over you

So hide the moments when I feel blue
You warm the coldest feet
Can cool me in the heat
And though our love was new
I’ll never get over you
My understanding grew
But I’ll never get over you, never get over you

Don’t let me wait so long

Don’t let me wait so long

Don’t Let Me Wait Too Long
How I love you baby
So don’t let me wait too long

How I love you baby
So don’t let me wait too long

How I miss you baby
So don’t let me wait too long

How I miss you baby
So don’t let me wait too long

‘Till you’re here by my side
Now only you know how to dry up all
of those tears that I’ve cried

Here, with our love
Now only you know how to lay it down
like it came from above

You know it’s you that I love

Now don’t let me wait too long
Now don’t let me wait too long
Now don’t let me wait too long
Now don’t let me wait too long

Till you’re here by my side
Now only you know how to dry eye up
all of those tears that I’ve cried

Here with your love
Now only you know how to lay it there
like it came from above

You know that it’s you that I love

So don’t let me wait too long
So don’t let me wait too long

How I miss you baby
So don’t let me wait too long

How I miss you baby
So don’t let me wait,

Don’t let me wait,
Don’t let me wait too long

Can’t stop thinking about you

Can’t stop thinking about you

Can’t stop thinking about you
Can’t stop thinking about you
It’s no good living without you
I can’t stop thinking about you

Can’t stop thinking about you
Can’t stop thinking about you
And it’s no good living without you
I can’t stop thinking about you

When the night-time comes around
Daylight has left me, I
I can’t take it if I don’t see you no more
I can’t help it, I need your loving so much more

And I can’t stop thinking about you
Can’t stop thinking about you
And it’s no good living without you
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about you, ooh

Can’t stop thinking about
Can’t stop thinking about
Can’t stop thinking about you

When the morning comes around
And the daylight gets to me, I
I can’t take it if I don’t see you no more
I can’t help it, I need your loving so much more

And I can’t stop thinking about you, oh yeah
I can’t stop thinking about you
And it’s no good living without you
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about you

I can’t stop thinking about
Can’t stop thinking about
Can’t stop thinking about you

(repeat and fade:)
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about
I can’t stop thinking about you

Behind that locked door

Behind that locked door

Why are you still crying?
Your pain is now through
Please forget those teardrops,
Let me take them for you
The love you are blessed with
This world’s waiting for
So let out your heart please, please
From behind that locked door

It’s time we start smiling,
What else should we do?
With only this short time,
I’m gonna’ be here with you,
and the tales you have taught me,
From the things that you saw,
Makes me want out your heart, please,
please
From behind that locked door

And if ever my love goes
If I’m rich or I’m poor,
Come and let out my heart, please,
please
From behind that locked door
