From Styx (1972) by Styx

Movement for the Common Man (DeYoung/Ryan/Young) - 13:11

Another new day takes up on you
A fanfare wakes the land
The naked lives just a shining down
At the dawn of the common man

Outside in the madding crowd
He laughs along the way
Traffic city, what a pity
It doesn't have a word to say

Troubled people, billions of people
They can't seem to understand
The ringing ears are unable to hear
The sounds of the natural plan

Yeah yeah yeah

Right Away (Frank) - 3:40

I have seen you
Walk in my dreams
Casted high against the sky

Let me meet you
Let me greet you inside
Take your place right next to mine

Yes I say

Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away

Leaves have fallen
Since I saw you last
Slowly die from green to brown
In which way we choose
To live our lives again

I'm gonna lay some seeds
I'm gonna leave them laying right on the ground

Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away

Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away

Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away
Right away, right away

What Has Come Between Us (Gaddis) - 4:53

Look at all the people
Looking at their dreams
Smiles upon their faces
Tell me what they see

Look at all the people
Have they gone astray?
Living for tomorrow
With dreams of yesterday

Lovely lady
Tell me what you feel
As a child were you mild
Does it make it so unreal?

Lovely lady
Feel so insecure
When you give all yourself
How can you be sure?

What has come between us
What has made us sad
Childhood's forgotten
Yet it's hiding in the past

What has come between us
There's something in ourselves
Lines upon our faces
Saying no more time for rest

Lovely lady
Tell me what you feel
As a child were you mild
Does it make it so unreal?

Lovely lady
Feel so insecure
When you give all yourself
How can you be sure?

Lovely lady
Tell me what you feel
As a child were you mild
Does it make it so unreal?

Lovely lady
Feel so insecure
When you give all yourself
How can you be sure?

Lovely lady
Feel so insecure
When you give all yourself
How can you be sure?

Lovely lady
Tell me what you feel
As a child were you mild
Does it make it so unreal?

Lovely lady
Feel so insecure
When you give all yourself
How can you be sure?

Best Thing (DeYoung/Young) - 3:13

Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever had

Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever had

Silk and satin make me wonder
Just who I am
To be with you in times of slumber
Makin' me a man

I haven't known you for a very long time
But it's on my mind what I want to do
A trip to the skies we begin to fly
Oo-oooh

All the riches I have taken
From you every night
Pay you back someday with interest
'Cause your loving makes it right
Yeah

Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever had
Your loving seemed to be the best thing
That I ever, ever had
Oh yeah

Best thing
(repeat to fade)

Quick Is the Beat of My Heart (Mark) - 4:49

If it's my time to die today
Please God oh make it fast
Balanced on this point for a year and half
I just don't think I can last

There's a man who's laid to rest
The man who gave me my start
I wish I could quit but I can't and it's rough
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart

So please all you people
Don't you grieve for me
The blood in my veins is black and I can't bleed

I've suffered the pain
And all I can face is the dark
Oh, Lord, quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart

Now my bags are almost packed
The train's about to depart
I wish I could quit but I can't and it's rough
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart
Quick is the beat of my heart

If it's my time to die...

After You Leave Me (Clinton) - 4:00

You come to me girl
Tears are in your eyes
Your head's bowed in sorrow
You whisper your good-byes

There's nothing I can tell you
To make you want to stay
So let me ask one question
Before you slip away

After you leave me
Where can I go?
After you leave me
What will I do?

I've seen this moment coming
For such a long, long time
I've laid awake for hours
Rehearsing every line

But now that it's here girl
Can't think of anything to say
So let me ask one question
Before you slip away

After you leave me
Where can I go?
After you leave me
What will I do?

Every time that
I get next to her
I'm hung up in this ring of fire

If I love her
Should I let her go
Or should I beg on a bended knee?

How much longer
Lord, I just don't know
I just can't take it girl
I'm breaking up o'er you

After you leave me
Where can I go?
After you leave me
What will I do?

After you
After you leave
