Well, I got a job and tried to put my money away
But I got debts that no honest man can pay
So I drew what I had from the Central Trust
And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus

Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air, you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
When you find your servant is your master

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

For forty days
Only a spark
To light my way
I wanna give out
I wanna give in
This is our crime
This is our sin

Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody
To love you half as much as me
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister
I'll always be in love with you

Never can get to the one

If you should see me walking through your dreams tonight
Would you please direct me where I ought to be
I've been looking for a crystal ball to shed a light
To find a future in me
To find a future in me

Crystal Ball (1976)*
-- Tommy Shaw / Styx

* - Yep, this is the elusive 'lost verse' of Crystal Ball ... I suppose you could make an argument that it originated in 2016 (first time recorded, live by Tommy Shaw at a solo show), but the lyric itself was indeed born in 1975 (and the song released [via album] in 1976, sans verse) ... any inaccuracies here can be chalked up to the mystery behind the lost verse and predictable interweb balderdash ...

Here come the jesters, 1 2 3
It's all part of my fantasy
I love the music
And I love to see the crowd
Dancing in the aisles
And singin' out loud

Waitin' for bus number 99
Goin' to the store for hot dogs and wine
When all of a sudden, I felt real cold
And wound up in the belly of a big ol' UFO

Sitting in my car outside your house
'Member when you spilled Coke all over your blouse
T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs
We've been having fun all summer long

Watched American Graffiti again last night and have this gem stuck in my head this morning (not a bad thing) ...

I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

Do you remember
The twenty-first night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin'
In the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh yeah

I wanna make a million dollars
I wanna live out by the sea
Have a husband and some children
Yeah, I guess I want a family
All the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You don't look at their faces
And you don't ask their names
