THIS IS JOHN WALKER

SUN COMES UP

Sun comes up like a fireball
Tries to make a man feel small
Doesn’t have to try too hard at all
See the sun and the flash of steel
Smell the fear it’s good to feel
That someone near you still believes he’s real
It ain’t hard to see who makes the rules
The old get older and the young die like fools
Who are the masters and who are the tools
I swear to God, then the sun above
If I must die then I’ll die for love
Huh, there ain’t a gun on earth that can find me now
Sun comes up like a fireball
Tries to make, tries to make man feel small
But it doesn’t have to try too hard at all

BUT BEAUTIFUL

Love is funny or it’s sad
Or it’s quiet or it’s mad
It’s a good thing or it’s bad
But beautiful

Beautiful to take a chance
And if you fall you fall
And I’m thinking I wouldn’t mind at all
Love is tearful or it’s gay
It’s a problem or it’s brave
It’s a heartache either way
But beautiful

And I am thinking if you were mine
I’d never let you go
And that would be but beautiful I know

And I am thinking if you were mine
I’d never let you go
And that would be but beautiful I know

EVERYWHERE UNDER THE SUN

The world may be cold in the morning
But my heart is always warm
You’re my sun kissed love of the morning
You’re the sunshine of my dawn
And now I’m sure you love me
'Cause you shine all around me

Everywhere under the sun
The same thing’s happening to everyone
You make a wish, steal a kiss
The whole world over love is like this

Everywhere under the sun
The same thing’s happening to everyone
You make a wish, steal a kiss
Everywhere under the sun
The same thing’s happening to everyone

The sun sinks low in the evening
But it keeps me warm when it’s gone
'Cause the warmth I feel in the evening
I find right here in your arms
And now I’m sure you love me
'Cause you shine all around me

Everywhere under the sun
The same thing’s happening to everyone
You make a wish, steal a kiss
The whole world over love is like this
Everywhere under the sun

The same thing’s happening to everyone
You make a wish, steal a kiss
Everywhere under the sun
Well it’s happening to everyone

I SEE YOUR FACE BEFORE ME

I see your face before me
Crowding my every dream
There is your face before me
You are my only theme

It doesn’t matter where you are
I can see how fair you are
I close my eyes and there you are
Always

If you could share the magic
If you could see me too
There would be nothing tragic
In all my dreams of you

Would that my love could haunt you so
Knowing I want you so
I can’t erase your beautiful face before me

Would that my love could haunt you so
Knowing I want you so
I can’t erase your beautiful face before me

TRUE GRIT

One day little girl the sadness will leave your face
As soon as you’ve won your fight to get justice done
Some days little girl you’ll wonder what life’s about
But others have known, few battles are won alone
So you look around to find someone who is kind
Someone who is fearless like you
The pain of it will ease a bit
When you find a man with true grit

One day you’ll rise and you won’t believe your eyes
You’ll wake and you’ll see a world that’s fine and free
Though summer seems far away
You’ll find the sun one day

Though summer seems far away
You’ll find the sun one day

HERE'S THAT RAINY DAY

Maybe I should have saved those left over dreams
Funny but here’s that rainy day
Here’s that rainy day they told me about
And I laughed at the thought it might turn out this way
Where is that worn out wish that I threw aside
After it brought my lover near
Funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny that rainy day is here
Funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny that rainy day is here

FOR ALL WE KNOW

For all we know we may never meet again
Before you go make this moment sweet again
We won’t say good night until the last minute
I’ll hold out my hand and my heart will be in it

For all we know this may only be a dream
We come and go like a ripple on a stream
So love me tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know

So love me tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know

I’M A FOOL TO WANT YOU

I’m a fool to want you
I’m a fool to want you
To want a love that can’t be true
A love that’s there for others too

I’m a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
To share a kiss the devil has known

Time and time again I said I'd leave you
Time and time again I went away
But then would come a time when I would need you
And once again these words I’d have to say

I’m a fool to want you
Pity me I need you
I know it’s wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong
I can’t get along without you

Take me back I love you
Pity me I need you
I know it’s wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong
I can’t get along without you

TRACES OF TOMORROW

Summer wind at your fingertips, sunlight in you hair
Watch the snow melting on your lips
Take my hand, you’re there
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes telling me lies
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes
Keeping me here in a fool's paradise

Life can change with each passing day
Sunshine follows rain
Like a child on holiday love is just a game
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes telling me lies
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes
Keeping me here in a fool's paradise

Think of me when nights are cold
When the sky is grey
Stop and smile as you’re growing old
Think of yesterday
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes telling me lies
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes
Keeping me here in a fool's paradise

Traces of tomorrow in your eyes telling me lies
Traces of tomorrow in your eyes
Keeping me in here in a fool's paradise

Summer wind at your fingertips, sunlight in your hair
Watch the snow melting on your lips
Take my hand you’re there
Take my hand you’re there
Take my hand you’re there

YOU’VE CHANGED

You’ve changed
That sparkle in your eyes is gone
Your smile is just a careless yawn
You’re breaking my heart
You’ve changed

You’ve changed
Your kisses now are so blasé
You’re bored with me in every way
I can’t understand
You’ve changed

You’ve forgotten the words 'I love you'
Each memory that we’ve shared
You ignore every star above you
I can’t realise you ever cared

You’ve changed
You’re not the angel I once knew
No need to tell me that we’re through
It’s all over now
You’ve changed

You’ve changed
You’re not the angel I once knew
No need to tell me that we’re through
It’s all over now
You’ve changed

WHO WE ARE

Dreamer reaching for a star
Wise men tell you who you are
Lover looking for the sun
People tell you how to run
And who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are
Who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are

Children looking for the moon
Children growing all too soon
Dreamer ready for your star
Dreamer we know who you are
And who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are
Who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are

And who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are
Who are we to ask the sky to lend us a star
Ask us we’ll tell you we are
Just ask us we’ll tell you we are
