Driftin' Away
(Eric Andersen, Rick Danko) [Albums: Danko
/ Fjeld / Andersen, One More Shot
(Molde bonus disc)]
I'm driftin' away
You touched a dream
I'm driftin' away, etc...
You call on the phone
I'm driftin' away, etc...
Don't write me a letter
I'm driftin' away, etc....
Down a long dark highway
I looked back once
I can't look anymore
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more
You broke a heart
Now wasn't that a shame
Heaven must know
I gave all i could
Can't give you more
Please don't stand outside
Of my door
You say you're alone
What am i supposed
To do about that
Words they can cut
Cut deep like a knife
Right to the core
Please don't stand outside
Of my door
I don't want to know
Don't say you've found
Somebody new
If it's somebody else
Don't tell me who, why, or
What for
Please
Don't stand
Outside of my door
Let's go out
Here we are broken-hearted
Let's go out, etc...
Let's not try to hurt each other
Let's go out, etc...
Blaze of Glory
(Johnny Slate, Danny Morrison, Larry Keith) [Albums:
Danko
/ Fjeld / Andersen]
In a blaze of glory
All good things must end
Like three heros in a story
Let's go out like we came in
In a blaze of glory
Thought this love could never end
Now we fell hard once we got started
Falling out like we fell in
That would be our worst mistake
Let's just try to act like brothers
One more time for old-time's sake
It's a lesson too late for the learnin'
Chorus:
You've got reasons a-plenty for goin'.
Chorus
As I lie in my bed in the mornin',
Chorus
Last Thing on my Mind
(Tom Paxton) [Albums: Danko / Fjeld / Andersen,
The Cologne Concert]
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your hand.
Are you going away with no word of farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Well, I could have loved you better,
Didn't mean to be unkind.
You know that was the last thing on my mind.
This I know, this I know.
For the weeds have been steadily growin'.
Please don't go, please don't go.
Without you, without you.
Every song in my breast dies a-bornin',
Without you, without you.
