I'LL KISS YOU GOODNIGHT (Pete Ham) Couples are drifting out of view Seems that the odd

one out was you Underneath the sky, you cry Thinking of the times you could have had with him Baby don't cry, I'll kiss you goodnight Baby don't cry, I'll kiss you goodnight Counting the stars, you seem so sad Maybe tomorrow, you'll be glad All you have to do is hope And you'll get the world all wrapped in cellophane Baby don't cry, I'll kiss you goodnight Baby don't cry Good luck will pass you someday And then you'll know what life is all about People walk past you down the lane But you just stare at them in vain Hoping that you'll see the one Who will comfort you and make your world complete But until then, I'll kiss you goodnight But until then, I'll kiss you goodnight I'll kiss you goodnight.

HURRY ON FATHER (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green" CD] Hurry on father, come on home Getting so lonely on my own Bring home the pie you know will please me Old Jacob Frost will never freeze me When you're near, near to me

Hurry on father, come on home Getting so lonely on my own Bring home the food you know will feed me And I will help you if you will lead me On your own, come on home.

MAKES ME FEEL GOOD (Pete Ham) [fast acoustic version (1967) from "Golders Green" CD] I know the kind of feeling that you get when you get high And I know the kind of feeling that will make somebody cry And although I've had some good times in my funny sort of way I've had nothing to compare with the way I feel today

CHORUS: Makes me feel good to know that you are here I feel real good just knowin' that you're near Say you'll always be here and we'll never be apart And I know that I will make you feel good, too

The first time that I saw you, I was feeling very low And before I had a chance to speak, the love began to grow It's been growin' ever since then, I am burning with desire And I guess that you're the only one who can't put out the fire

CHORUS [2 times]

I'VE WAITED SO LONG TO BE FREE (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green" CD] Passin' the buck, but I don't give a fuck If they ever accept or believe me It's always the same if there's someone to blame You can be sure that they'll see me They'll never be me, never will free me Oh, I've waited so long to be free

KEYHOLE STREET (Pete Ham) On Keyhole Street There's a small house all painted white That I walk past going home from my work at night I shouldn't care knowing that she is there Looking through my window I see her face and my heart starts to race, somehow

HELPING HAND (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green" CD] All I need is my lover Someone who'll make me feel okay Any time of the day But we need to discover

And when you need a helping hand If we talk, maybe I'll understand Let me feel inside your mind Let me join in with all I can find

CATHERINE CARES (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD] The things I said to her are on my mind

No matter what I got, I just complained She'd give her last to see me smile Tried to keep me dressed in style

Things I said so selfishly, didn't mean a thing to me But now I know that she was being kind Didn't want me to be hurt, No one there to change my shirt

But I had this ambition in my brain So I walked out and left her there Without a thought, without a care

CHORUS CHORUS: Each time that I come home she says the same Catherine cares "C'mon home, you're getting thin Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah See the state your clothes are in" Catherine cares She's my mom and Catherine's her name Yeah, I know that I was wrong Gives a pound to see me straight Catherine cares Sits back in her chair to wait Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home CHORUS (She wants her baby home)

EVENING SKY (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green " CD (Japanese edition)] Crimson was the dawn Was the morning Was the evening sky so bright Night time Turns to day time With no warning With no warning of a light And I can see it all And all the burrs that fall upon my hair Will all be mine Be mine I need some place to go Mine And time Is always all alone

IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD, and acoustic guitar demo from "Without You, The Tragic Story of Badfinger (1st edition)" CD] It doesn't really matter what you say I'll always love you, anyway The same as I love you today There's nothing I can do It doesn't really matter what you do I'll always feel the same for you For after all that we've been through There's nothing I can do

Weep, pretty baby, cryin' ain't wrong It won't be long It won't be long Mm.

HAND IN HAND (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD] Don't want perfection As long as it's you Don't want a reflection

In my hand Yes, my hand Take my hand

If you can't see the rainbow We gotta move together Gotta do it hand in hand Waiting 'round the corner You don't understand If you don't make it I guess you know why

Know it ain't easy And no one's to blame And if you can't please me Well, that ain't no shame

But can't you see the rainbow Gotta do it hand in hand Waiting 'round the corner? In my hand Don't you understand? Yes, my hand We gotta move together Gotta do it hand in... Gotta move together Gotta do it hand in... Gotta move together Gotta do it hand in hand Take my hand.

SILLE VEB (Pete Ham) [acoustic demo from "7 Park Avenue" CD] I just hope and I pray Won't be long, I'll be gone Someday we'll share Out on the road All the love that there could be And each song that I sing Carries the load Of the one I left behind I want you by my side Won't be glad, can't be sad Playing's my choice But each day that we've had Shows in my voice [solo: Of the love that's in my mind Little Sille Veb, when will you mind? Little Sille Veb, when will you find? Little Sille Veb, when will you find?] I need to be with you The only time I've lied Is when you would want me to Little Sille Veb, when will you mind?

For each day that you wait Patiently there

I KNOW THAT YOU SHOULD (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD] Forget all the ones we left behind Pretty soon, you know the stupid game Is gonna blow my mind It's gonna blow my mind Regret all the times I've been unkind Pretty soon I'm gonna take my blame And find some peace of mind I need some peace of mind

We need to let it grow

Don't you know that I feel? Don't you know that I care? I know that you should I know that you should Can't you see that it's real? Can't you see that it's there? And I would if I could Well, I would if I could

Don't you know that I feel? Don't you know that I care? I know that you should I know that you should Can't you see that it's real? Can't you see that it's there? And I would if I could I would if I could

ISLAND (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD] Quiet seas so blue, the color of your eyes Nothing else to do, but look into your eyes Golden sands to lay upon when you're feeling tired And I'll always be with you on our magic island

If we hope and pray, I know our day will come We'll no longer be apart, we'll be as one We will find a home someday, just for you and I Then we'll be so happy, we'll forget the way to cry

Island, island Somewhere in my mind Island, island Trying hard to find

We will find a home someday, just for you and I Then we'll be so happy, we'll forget the way to cry.

UST LOOK INSIDE THE COVER (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD] You say my hair is getting long Surely, that ain't bad You say the way I dress is wrong That don't mean I'm mad Just look inside the cover I'm sure you'll discover love

You say my life's a waste of time, but man, I disagree I don't know anything so fine, as a life God gave to me So I'll just go on living and all the fun life's giving me One day, you'll see it too

[guitar solo]

You say that I should be secure That's all very well But there's no point in making sure Tomorrow may be hell So, I'll just go on living and all the fun life's giving me One day, you'll see it too

It's not the colour of the hair or the colour of the skin That tells you that a man is good or if he's full of sin.

JUST HOW LUCKY WE ARE (Pete Ham) [electric guitar demo from "7 Park Avenue" CD] When I'm feeling down, can't figure why It's my guilty soul, it's bleeding me dry When I think of the suffering people Who would give anything to be free Would I still believe God was a kind man If that suffering person was me?

In my comfy chair with you by my side With our lives to share, nothing to hide Though I know that we may have some problems But I know that the problems are few For the kind of attention you give me Won't allow me to be overblue

And I know just how lucky we are Just how lucky we are.

NO MORE (Pete Ham) [electric guitar demo from "7 Park Avenue" CD] Drunken days, drunken nights Someone, please, turn out the light I can't face the mirror anymore

Every little note is coming hard

N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more No no, no more

Move along, magic gone Someone else can sing my song I can't lift my head up off the floor It's a fool's game N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more It's a shame, shame N-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more No more, no more No no, no more No more Empty days, sleepless nights Have I lost the will to fight? N-n-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more Someone help me back onto the road N-n-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more Sinking fast, time is past I can't make the story last N-n-n-n-n-n-no no no, no more No no, no more. No more It's no longer funny when you're doing it for money There's no use in trying when I only end up crying

RINGSIDE (Pete Ham) [electrified acoustic guitar demo from "7 Park Avenue" CD] Take your seat by the ringside

Hear them sell you down the line Watch them cross you tomorrow While they smile and say it's fine

Watch them bidding for your blood Take me back to the country Who will own you tomorrow? Let me, let me, let me roam Will you be misunderstood? For I can't bear to feel the sorrow Take me back to the Father Of the evil that you've shown Take me, take me, take me home Of the evil that you've shown me For I can't bear to feel the sorrow Of the evil that you've shown Why oh why, did you prove me wrong? When my faith in you was strong, really strong Keep your ear to the grapevine Oh but now, the magic's gone Hear them sell you down the line Watch, they'll cross you tomorrow While they smile and say it's fine Take me back to the Father Take me back to the country Take me, take me, take me home Let me, let me, let me roam For I can't bear to feel the sorrow, oh For I can't bear to feel the sorrow Of the evil that you've shown Of the evil that you've shown Of the evil that you've shown. Of the evil that you've shown. lyrics transcribed by Tom Brennan lyrics transcribed by Tom Brennan [instrumental]

JUST A CHANCE (Pete Ham) [acoustic demo version from "7 Park Avenue" CD (remastered Japanese release only)]
Doesn't matter what you think I do All I wanna do is see it through You may say it's not a great romance But all I want from you is just a chance to try Any way at all Don't you think we know it has to hurt Are minds that small?

I won't tell you if it's short or long All I know is that it don't feel wrong You may say it's not a great romance But all I want from you is just a chance to try Any way we can Don't you think we know it has to hurt Won't you understand?

[guitar solo]

Doesn't matter what you think I do All I wanna do is see it through You may say it's not a great romance But all I want from you is just a chance to try Any way we can Don't you think we know it has to hurt Won't you understand?

THE HEART THAT CAN'T BE UNDERSTOOD (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD (Japanese edition)] The sadness that you cancel with your smile

For me, it's more than passing flames And even though I know you can't return the love I feel I can't deny my love for you

The heart that can't be understood I can't deny my love for you. And though you say it's only for awhile I know inside that it's for good It's clear, I'm just another port of call Another game to pass the time And when you leave, I won't exist at all Not even in your stoney mind

So hold me once again before you go For me, it's more than passing flames And even though I know you can't return the love I feel I can't deny my love for you

The mating that I looked for all my life A love that only lives in dreams Perfection that conceals a hidden knife The kiss that's not all that it seems It's clear, I'm just another port of call Another game to pass the time And when you leave, I won't exist at all Not even in your stoney mind

So hold me once again before you go

COME COME TOMORROW (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD (Japanese edition)] Come, come tomorrow Everything is gonna be alright

Waiting by the pool Looking at the action

Come, come tomorrow Well, you know, it's gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright You know they're making me uptight Just wait and see Everything is gonna be alright Come, come tomorrow There'll be sunshine breaking through the clouds Come, come tomorrow There is sun that shines down through the clouds There'll be sunshine breaking through the clouds There'll be sunshine breaking through the clouds There'll be sun that shines down through the clouds Just wait and see There'll be sun special in the cloud It's gonna happen to me It's gonna happen to be the day when the blues go away It's gonna happen to me Come, come tomorrow Everything is gonna be alright Yes, you know, it's gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Just wait and see It's gonna happen to be the day when the blues go away Go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away. Just wait and see Just wait and see

Come, come tomorrow There'll be sunshine breaking through the clouds Yes, the sun will shine down through the clouds There'll be sunshine breaking through the clouds Just wait and see

It's gonna happen to me It's gonna happen to be the day when the blues go away

Got too much for me With no reflection Miss you next to me Got no connection Try to pick me up With no reaction

BLESSING IN DISGUISE (Pete Ham) [from "7 Park Avenue" CD (Japanese edition)] There's a lesson to be learned In letting people learn their lessons

chance Don't let romance pass you by It's the best thing alive

There's a lesson to be learned For so surely, if you bend Although it's riddled with confusion That burden could turn into a blessing Disregard your self-illusion Just a blessing in disguise And understand what you can find There's a reason to believe If we have something to believe in You call this freedom we're receiving Or can you see behind the eyes To the blessing in disguise? In your blessing in disguise.

There's a reason to forgive For you know someone who's forgiving Are you perfect in your living Or who you hide behind your eyes In your blessing in disguise?

There's a lesson to be learned Although it's riddled with confusion Disregard the self-illusion And understand what you can find In your blessing in disguise

Just have to do what you feel you must do Just have to chance what you feel you must

KNOW ONE KNOWS (Pete Ham) [acoustic demo from "7 Park Avenue" CD (Japanese edition only)] No one knows it No one knows it No one knows it, no No one knows how good I feel

No one feels it No one feels it, no No one knows how good I feel When you do your show

Keep it coming, keep it long When I feel you glow Caress me with your body song No one knows it No one knows it No one knows it, no No one knows it No one knows how good I feel No one knows it When I feel you glow [scat singing] Keep it coming, keep it long Keep it coming, keep it long Caress me with your body song Caress me with your body song Reach it higher with each sigh Reach it higher with each sigh Knowing soon that we will fly Knowing soon that we will fly No one knows it No one knows it No one knows it No one knows it No one knows it, no No one knows it, no No one knows how good I feel No one knows how good I feel When I feel you glow When I see you glow. No one feels it Reach it higher with each sigh Knowing soon that we will fly

DAWN (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green" CD] As the dawn begins to break

When I get up in the morning

When the dawn begins to break I prod myself to see if I'm awake When the dawn begins to break And the fawn of early day When the dawn begins to break... Has let me know again that I can stay
lyrics transcribed by Dan Matovina

When I wake up in the morning after sleeping in the night I can hear the echoes of the night before And I only hope that I can hear some more when tomorrow comes

As the dawn begins to break I prod myself to see if I'm awake And the fawn of early day Has let me know again that I can stay

When I wake up in the morning after sleeping in the night I can hear the echoes of the night before And I only hope that I can hear some more when tomorrow comes

When I get up in the morning after laying down all night When it's good, then I can run for many miles When it's bad, then I can hardly raise a smile And man, I like to smile Whoa-oh

GOODBYE JOHN FROST (Pete Ham) [from "Golders Green" CD] Goodbye, John Frost You've lost, John Frost Took it out upon my motor car Making sure I'd never get too far, too far, oo-oo, yeah-ah

Goodbye, John Frost You've cost, John Frost Took it out upon my naked skin Didn't even say I'd let you in, you in, John Frost, oooo, you in

Don't you see it getting so near? Can I make it perfectly clear? You're getting me down!

Sorry, but I can't let you stay Don't you know you hurt when you play Stop messing around! Woo-hoo

Goodbye, John Frost You've lost, John Frost Took it out upon my motor car Making sure I'd never get too far, too far, oo-oo, yeah-ah.
