Van Morrison - Redwood Tree Lyrics

Van Morrison - Redwood Tree Video

Boy and his dog
Went out looking for the rainbow
You know what did they learn
Since that very day
 
Walking by the river
And running like a blue streak
Through the fields of streams and meadows
Laughing all the way
 
Oh redwood tree
Please let us under
When we were young we used to go
Under the redwood tree
 
And it smells like rain
Maybe even thunder
Won't you keep us from all harm
Wonderful redwood tree
 
And a boy and his father
Went out, went out looking for the lost dog
You know what oh haven't they learned
Since they did that together
They did not bring him back
He already had departed
But look at everything they have learned
Since that, since that very day
 
Oh redwood tree
Please let us under
When we were young we used to go
Under the redwood tree
 
And it smells like rain
Maybe even thunder
Won't you keep us from all harm
Wonderful redwood tree
 
Ta da da da...

Van Morrison - Domino Lyrics

Van Morrison - Domino Video

Don't wannna discuss it
Think it's time for a change
You may get disgusted
Start thinkin' that I'm strange
 
In that case I'll go underground
Get some heavy rest
Never have to worry
About what is worst or what is best
(Get it)
 
Oh oh Domino (it's all right)
Roll me over, Romeo, there you go
Lord, have mercy
I said oh-oh, Domino
Roll me over, Romeo, there you go
Say it again
I said oh-ooh-oh Domino
I said oh-ooh-ooh-oh Domino
(Dig It)
 
Instrumental
 
There's no need for argument
There's no argument at all
And if you never hear from him
That just means he didn't call
Or vice versa
That depends on where ever you're at
(All right)
And if you never hear from me
That just means I would rather not
 
(Hit it)
Oh oh Domino
(All right)
Roll me over Romeo, there you go
Lord have mercy
I said, oh oh Domino
Roll me over Romeo, there you go
(Hey, all right)
Say it again
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh Domino
(Hey, hit it)
I said oh-ooh-ooh Domino
 
Well, Mr. DJ I just wanna hear
Some rhythm and blues music
On the radio
On the radio
On the radio
 
Uh-uh, all right
Uh-uh, all right
Uh-uh, all right
Uh-uh
 
Hear the band
 
Instrumental
 
One more time
 
Instrumental to end

Van Morrison - Have I Told You Lately Lyrics

Van Morrison - Have I Told You Lately Video

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one above you?
You fill my heart with gladness
And you take away my sadness
You ease my troubles, that's what you do
 
Oh the morning sun in all its glory
It greets the day with hope and comfort too
And you fill my life with laughter
And you can make it better
You ease my troubles, that's what you do
 
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine, like the sun
So at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the One
 
(Ohh)
 
And have I told you lately that I love you?
And have I told you there's no one above you?
You fill my heart with gladness
You take away my sadness
You ease my troubles, that's what you do
 
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Just like the sun
So at the end of the day
We will give thanks and pray to the One (to the One)
 
And have I told you lately that I love you?
And have I told you there's no one above you?
You fill my heart with gladness
And you take away my sadness
You ease my troubles, that's what you do
 
You fill my life with gladness
Take away my sadness
You ease my troubles, that's what you do
 
I love you...

Van Morrison - I'm Not Feeling It Anymore Lyrics

Van Morrison - I'm Not Feeling It Anymore Video

Have to get back, have to get back the base
I need to talk to somebody, I can trust
Too many cooks, are tryin' to spoil the broth
I can't feel it in my throat, that's all she wrote
 
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
Not feelin' it no more, not feelin' it anymore
 
When I was high at the party, everything looked good
I was seein' through rose coloured glasses
Not seein' the wood for the trees
I started out in normal operation
But I just ended up in doubt
All my drinking buddies, they locked me out
 
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
No feelin' it no more, I'm tryin' to give you the score
 
You see me up there baby, I'm on the screen
But I know better now, it's so unreal
If this is success, then something's awful wrong
'Cause I bought the dream and I had to play along
 
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm tryin' to give you the score, I'm not feelin' it no more
 
 
We all know that money, don't buy you love
You just get a job and somewhere to live
You have to look for happiness, within yourself
And don't go chasin' thinkin' that it is somewhere else
 
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
Baby I'm tryin' to give you the score,
I'm not feelin' it no more
 
I was pretending all the time
I was givin' everybody what they wanted
And I lost my peace of mind
And all I ever wanted was simply just to be me
All you ever need is the truth
And the truth will set you free
 
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm tryin' to give you the score, just like I did before
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm not feelin' it no more, baby I'm just trying to give you the score
I'm not feelin' it no more, not feelin' it anymore
Not feelin' it no more
Not feelin' it no more baby.

Van Morrison - Too Long In Exile Lyrics

Van Morrison - Too Long In Exile Video

Too long in exile
Too long not singing my song
Too long in exile
Too long like a rolling stone
Too long in exile
 
Too long in exile
Baby those people just ain't, just ain't your friends
Too long in exile my friend
You can never go home again
 
Well that isolated feeling
Drives you so close up against the wall
Till you feel like you can't go on
You've been in the same place for too long
 
Too long in exile
Baby you can never go back home
Too long in exile
Anyway you want
 
Oh that isolated feeling
Drives you up against, up against the wall
'cos you've been on the mainland baby
Been on the mainland, comin'on strong
 
Too long in exile
Too long people keep hanging on
Too long in exile
 
Too long like a rolling stone
 
And the wheeling and the dealing
All takes up too much time
Check your better self baby
You'd better satisfy, satisfy your mind
 
Too long in exile
Too long you've been grinding at the mill
Too long in exile
Man, I've really just had my fill
 
Too long in exile
You can never go back home again
Too long in exile
You're about to drive me just insane
 
Too long in exile, been too long in exile
Just like james joyce, baby
Too long in exile
Just like samuel beckett baby
Too long in exile
Just like oscar wilde
Too long in exile
Just like george best, baby
Too long in exile
Just like alex higgins, baby
Too long in exile

Van Morrison - Someone Like You Lyrics

Van Morrison - Someone Like You Video

I've been searchin' a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been travelling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through
 
Someone like you
Will make it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keep me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
 
I've been travellin' a hard road
Baby, lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carrying my heavy load
Waitin' for the light to come shining through
 
Someone like you
Will make it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keep me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
 
I've been doing some soul searching
Find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
And all kinds of foreign lands
 
Someone like you
Will make it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keep me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
 
I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different drum
But just lately I've realized
Baby, the best is yet to come
 
Someone like you
Will make it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keep me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
 
The best is yet to come
