More Than a Feeling
Length: 4:45
Release: 1986
Opening Lyrics:
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
‘Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin’ away
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
Peace of Mind
Length: 5:03
Release: 1976
Opening Lyrics:
Future’s coming much too slow
And you wanna run, but somehow you just keep on stayin’
Can’t decide on which way to go
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But I don’t care if I get behind
People livin’ in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind
Hope it doesn’t take too long
Can’t cha see there’ll come a day when it won’t matter
Come a day when you’ll be gone
Ohh, ohh
Foreplay / Long Time
Length: 7:47
Release: 1976
Opening Lyrics:
I think I should be goin’, yeah
And time doesn’t wait for me
It keeps on rollin’
Sail on, on a distant highway, yeah
I’ve got to keep on chasin’ a dream
I’ve gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say
You’ll forget about me after I’ve been gone
(And I take what I find) I don’t want no more
It’s just outside of your front door
It’s been such a long time
Amanda
Length: 4:16
Release: 1986
Opening Lyrics:
There’s something I just have to say
I don’t think I could hide what I’m feelin’ inside
Another day, knowin’ I love you
I don’t wanna see it end
If I tell you tonight, would you turn out the lights
And walk away knowin’ I love you?
And make you realize, Amanda
I’m gonna tell you right away
I can’t wait another day, Amanda
I’m gonna say it like a man
And make you understand, Amanda

You gotta let yourself go, the band’s gonna take control

Get down tonight
We’re cookin’ tonight, just keep on tokin’
Smokin’, Smokin’
I feel alright, mamma I’m not jokin’, yeah
You’ve got nothing to lose just the rhythm and blues, that’s all, yeah
We’re gonna feel ok
We’ll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
