The Nearness of You - Rod Stewart & Python Lee Jackson

Well, the days are getting colder now And the nights are getting longer Feels like half the world has gone to sleep 'Til the wind blows right over When I'm on my own I still hear the sweet sound of you Echoes through the home I still hear the sweet sound (sweet sound) of you There's a place I like to go sometimes Sit and watch the day turn over Watch the trees turn to shadows now See the light changing her colors But when it fades away I still hear the sweet sound of you Just that time of day I still hear the sweet sound of you Well, you know, we're getting older now People talkin', children playin' It gets hard to find the time to say The things we know we should be saying But when I think it's gone I still hear the sweet sound of you Echoes through the home I still hear that sweet sound (sweet sound) The sweet sound (the sweet sound) of you

It must have been inside my head I've lost the hope that I have left And now, at last, it comes to pass We sleep, we dream, we have no less Along the path, we lost our way It's all a game that I must play And now the weak that fall Return to ash, defeated after all Fade away to the wicked world we live And I become the dark of you Say a prayer for the wounded heart within As I become the dark of you Let go When all has come to life We live, we breathe, we die They call me to the light Forever lost in time With every dream we find We feed, we burn, we lie The fall of humankind The everlasting light Fade away to the wicked world we live And I become the dark of you Say a prayer for the wounded heart within As I become the dark of you Let go When all has come to life We live, we breathe, we die They call me to the light Forever lost in time With every dream we find We feed, we burn, we lie The fall of humankind The everlasting light Fade away to the wicked world we live And I become the dark of you Say a prayer for the wounded heart within As I become the dark of you Let go Save this selfish world Save this selfish world (let go) Save this selfish world Save this selfish world

What's up with my heart when it skips a beat? Can't feel no pavement right under my feet Up in my lonely room When I'm dreaming of you Oh, what can I do? I still need you, but I don't want you now When I'm down and my hands are tied I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line From this pain I just can't disguise Its gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye Up in my lonely room When I'm dreaming of you Oh, what can I do? I still need you, but I don't want you now Oh yeah Up in my lonely room When I'm dreaming of you Oh, what can I do? I still need you, but I don't want you now

You are the sunshine of my life That's why I'll always be around You are the apple of my eye Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart I know that this is the beginning Though I loved you for one million years But if I thought our love was ending I'd find myself drowning in my own tears You are the sunshine of my life That's why I'll always be around You are the apple of my eye Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart You must have known that I was lonely Because you came to my rescue And though I know that this is heaven How could so much love be inside of you You are the sunshine of my life That's why I'll always be around You are the apple of my eye Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart ('cause you are) You are the sunshine - of my life (Of my life, of my life) (Light my fire baby, light my fire,...)

You got your demons, spent seasons on the dark side of the moon Don't try denying 'cause you know that I've been there too Right now I know how it feels like the world's gonna end But I'll get you through If it's the last thing I do I'm gonna love the hell out of you Take all the pain that you're going through I'll bring you heaven if that's what you need 'Cause you've always loved the hell out of me You brought resounding techniques for my grounding when I Had lost it a little too far from the middle to find Some solace from all this exhaustion and monsters of mine So you better know that I'll bring you home I'm gonna love the hell out of you Take all the pain that you're going through I'll bring you heaven if that's what you need 'Cause you've always loved the hell out of me Me In the moment you feel half complete Know the moments are temporary When the fear fuels the fire underneath I'm gonna love the hell out of you Take all the pain that you're going through And I'll bring you heaven yeah if that's what you need 'Cause you've always loved the hell out of me You've always loved the hell out of me

You are the sunshine of my life That's why I'll always be around You are the apple of my eye Forever you'll stay in my heart I feel like this is the beginning Though I've loved you for a million years And if I thought our love was ending I'd find myself drowning in my own tears You are the sunshine of my life That's why I'll always stay around You are the apple of my eye (love has joined us) Forever you'll stay in my heart (love, sweet love) You must have known that I was lonely Because you came to my rescue And I know that this must be heaven How could so much love be inside of you? You are the sunshine of my life, yeah That's why I'll always stay around You are the apple of my eye (love has joined us) Forever you'll stay in my heart (love, sweet love) (Love has joined us) you are the sunshine of my life, baby (Love has joined us) that's why I'll always stay around (Love, sweet love)

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
