9. SITTING IN A DREAM
I'm just passing time before the Ball
Playing my guitar
I don't have to be where I don't want to be at all
Maybe I'll go far
Going nowhere, sitting in a dream...
Ah, in a dream

Sitting in a landscape full of sighs
Dream away the day
Making up a tune about the blueness of the skies
This is where I'll stay
Going nowhere, sitting in a dream...
Oh, in a dream

Watching as a red and white balloon
Sails across my mind
In between the images that dri
ft along my tune
Smile as they unwind Going nowhere, sitting in a dream...
Ah, in a dream

16. LOVE IS ALL

Everybody's got to live together
All the people got to understand
So, love your neighbor
Like you love your brother
Come on and join the band

Well, all you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebratin'
Come on and let your feelings show

Love is all, well love is all,
Love is all, can't you hear the call
Oh, love is all you need
Love is all you need at the Butterfly Ball

Ain't you happy that we're all together
At the ball in nature's countryside
And although we're wearing different faces
Nobody wants to hide

Love is all and all is love and
It's easy, yes it's so easy
At the Butterfly Ball where love is all
And it's so easy

All you need is love and understanding
Hey, ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebratin'
Let your feelings show

Love is all, yes love is all at the Butterfly Ball
Love is big, love is small
Love is free, love is all
At the Butterfly Ball

When you back's to the wall
When you're starting to fall
You got something to lean on
Love is everything
It can make you sing at the Butterfly Ball
Love is all, I say love is all, yes love is all
At the Butterfly Ball

17. HOMEWARD

Now the Ball is over
It's time to get back home
I need a star to guide me
I'm feeling so alone
Feeling so alone

Morning mustn't find me
Sleeping in the sun
Now the dawn is breaking
A new day just begun
New day just begun

Glow worm lighting
Darkness fighting
Guiding one and all

Homeward going
Moving, flowing
Homeward from the Ball

Wings are sadly folding
Here comes another day
Oh I'd like to stay for ever
And dance the night away
Oh dance the night away

Glow worm lighting
Darkness fighting
Guiding one and all

Oh
Homeward going - take me home
Moving, flowing
Homeward from the Ball

Homeward going
Moving, flowing
Homeward from the Ball

Homeward going
Moving, flowing
Homeward from the Ball

Homeward going
Moving, flowing
Homeward from the Ball

LOVE IS ALL (demo)

Everybody's got to live together
All the people got to understand
Love your neighbor
Like you love your brother
Come on and join the band

All you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebratin'
Let your feelings show

Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need

Ain't you happy that we're all together
At the ball in nature's countryside
And although we're wearing different faces
Nobody wants to hide

Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need

All you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebratin'
Let your feelings show

'Cause love is all you need
Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need, love is all you need
Love is all you need

Well, love is all you need, love is all you need
All you need is love
Love is all you need, love is all that you need
Say, love's got to be all you need
Love is all you need, love is all you need
