A TASTE OF HONEY
A taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.
I dream of your first kiss, and then,
I feel upon my lips again,
A taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.
I will return, yes I will return,
I'll come back for the honey and you.
Yours was the kiss that awoke my heart,
There lingers still, 'though we're far apart,
That taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.
I will return, yes I will return,
I'll come back (he'll come back) for the honey (for the honey) and you.
TAXMAN
Let me tell you how it will be,
There's one for you, nineteen for me,
'Cos I'm the Taxman,
Yeah, I'm the Taxman.
Should five per cent appear too small,
Be thankful I don't take it all,
'Cos I'm the Taxman,
Yeah, I'm the Taxman.
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat,
If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.
Taxman.
'Cos I'm the Taxman,
Yeah, I'm the Taxman.
Don't ask me what I want it for
(Taxman Mister Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more
(Taxman Mister Heath),
'Cos I'm the Taxman,
Yeah, I'm the Taxman.
Now my advice for those who die,
Declare the pennies on your eyes,
'Cos I'm the Taxman,
Yeah, I'm the Taxman.
And you're working for no-one but me,
Taxman.
TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE
If you let me take your heart I will prove to you,
We will never eb apart if I'm part of you,
Open up your eyes now tell me what you see,
It is no surprise now what you see is me.
Big and black the clouds may be time will pass away,
If you put your trust in me I'll make bright your day.
Look into these eyes, tell me what you see,
Don't you realize now what you see is me.
Tell me what you see.
Listen to me one more time how can I get through,
Can't you try to see that I'm trying to get to you,
Open up your eyes now tell me what you see,
It is no surprise now what you see is me.
Tell me what you see.
Listen to me one more time how can I get through,
Listen to me one more time how can I get through,
Open up your eyes now tell me what you see,
It is no surprise now what you see is me.
TELL ME WHY
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me.
Well I gave you ev'rything I had,
But you left me sitting on my own,
Did you have to treat me oh so bad,
All I do is hang my head and moan.
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me.
If there's something I have said or done,
Tell me what and I'll apologize,
If you don't I really can't go on,
Holding back these tears in my eyes.
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me.
Well I beg you on my bended knees,
If you'll only listen to my pleas,
If there's anything I can do,
'Cos I really can't stand it,
I'm so in love with you.
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lied to me.
THANK YOU GIRL
Oh, oh,
You've been good to me, you made me glad when I was blue,
And eternally I'll always be in love with you,
And all I gotta do is thank you girl, thank you girl.
I could tell the world, a thing or two about our love,
I know little girl, only a fool tould doubt our love,
And all I gotta do is thank you girl, thank you girl.
Thank you girl for loving me the way that you do, (way that you do),
That's the kind of love love that is too good to be true,
And all I gotta do is thank you girl, thank you girl.

And eternally I'll always be in love with you,
And all I gotta do is thank you girl, thank you girl.
Oh, oh.
THERE´S A PLACE
There, there's a place,
Where I can go,
When I feel low,
When I feel blue,
And it's my mind,
And there's no time,
When I'm alone.
I think of you,
And things you do,
Go round my head,
The things you've said,
Like I love only you.
In my mind there's no sorrow,
Don't you know that it's so,
There'll be no sad tomorrow,
Don't you know that it's so.
There, there's a place,
Where I can go,
When I feel low,
When I feel blue,
And it's my mind,
And there's no time,
When I'm alone.
There, there's a place,
There's a place.
THINGS WE SAID TODAY
You say you will love me if I have to go,
You'll be thinking of me, somehow I will know,
Someday when I'm lonely, wishing you weren't so far away,
Then I will remember things we said today.
You say you will be mine, girl, till the end of time,
These days such a kind girl seems so hard to find,
Someday when we're dreaming, deep in love,
Not a lot to say,
Then we will remember things we said today.
Me I'm just a lucky kind,
Love to hear you say that love is love,
And though we may be blind,
Love is here to stay.
And that's enough to make you mine girl,
Be the only one,
Love me all the time girl, we'll go on and on,
Someday when we're dreaming, deep in love,
Not a lot to say,
Then we will remember things we said today.
Me I'm just a lucky kind,
Love to hear you say that love is love,
And though we may be blind,

Someday when we're dreaming, deep in love,

THINK FOR YOURSELF
I've got a word or two
To say about the things that you do,
You're telling all those lies,
About the good things we can have
If we close our eyes.
Do what you want to do,
And go where you're going to,
Think for yourself,
'Cos I won't be there with you,
I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you had in mind.
And though you still can't see,
I know your mind's made up,
You're gonna cause more misery.
Do what you want to do,
And go where you're going to,
Think for yourself,
'Cos I won't be there with you.
Although your mind's opaque,
Try thinking more,
If just for your own sake.
The future still looks good,
And you've got time to rectify
All the things that you should.
Do what you want to do,
And go where you're going to,
Think for yourself,
'Cos I won't be there with you.
Do what you want to do,
And go where you're going to,
Think for yourself,
'Cos I won't be there with you.
Think for yourself,
'Cos I won't be there with you.
THIS BOY
That boy took my love away,
He'll regret it someday-i-ay,
But this boy wants you back again.
That boy isn't good for you,
Tho' he may want you too,
This boy wants you back again.
Oh, and this boy would be happy,
Just to love you, but oh my - yi - yi,
That boy won't be happy,
Till he's seen you cry - hi - hi.
This boy wouldn't mind the pain,
Would always feel the same,
If this boy gets you back again.
This boy. This boy.
TICKET TO RIDE
I think I'm gonna be sad,
I think it's today, yeh,
The girl that's driving me mad,
Is going away.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ri - hi - hide,
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care.
She said that living with me,
Is bringing her down yeh,
For she would never be free when I was around.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ri - hi - hide,
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care.
I don't know why she's riding so high,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
I think I'm gonna be sad,

The girl that's driving me mad,
Is going away.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ri - hi - hide,
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care.
I don't know why she's riding so high,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
Before she gets to saying goodbye,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
She said that living with me,
Is bringing her down yeh,
For she would never be free when I was around.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ri - hi - hide,
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care.
My baby don't care, my baby don't care.
TILL THERE WAS YOU
There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No I never heard them at all
'Til there was you
There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No I never saw them at all
'Til there was you
Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows of dawn and you
There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
'Til there was you
Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows of dawn and you
There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
'Til there was you
'Til there was you
TOMOROOW NEVER KNOWS
Turn off your mind relax and float down-stream,
It is not dying, it is not dying,
Lay down all thought surrender to the void,
It is shining, it is shining.
That you may see the meaning of within,
It is being, it is being,
That love is all and love is ev’ryone,
It is knowing, it is knowing.
That ignorance and haste may mourn the dead,
It is believing, it is believing,
But listen to the color of your dreams,
It is not living, it is not living.
Or play the game "existence" to the end.
Of the beginning, of the beginning.
Of the beginning. Of the beginning.

TWO OF US
Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's hard earned pay,
You and me Sunday driving,
Not arriving on our way back home.
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home,
We're going home.
Two of us sending postcards
Writing letters on my wall.
You and me burning matches,
Lifting latches on our way back home.
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home,
We're going home.
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo in the sun.
You and me chasing paper,
Getting nowhere on our way back home.
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home.
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead]
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo in the sun.
You and me chasing paper,
Getting nowhere on our way back home
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home,
We're on our way home.
