Earth, Wind & Fire - Greatest Hits Album Lyrics

Yeah, hey
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams will take you very far, yeah
But when you wish upon a dream
Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah
What'd you see on a night so clear
In the sky so very dear

You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you could truly be
What you could truly be

Shining star come into view
Shine its watchful light on you, yeah
Gives you strength to carry on
Make your body big and strong
Born a man child of the sun
Saw my work had just begun
Yeah, found I had to stand alone
Bless it now I've got my own oh yeah

So, if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heed
Be a giant or grain of sand
Words of Wisdom: Yes I can

You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be

Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be

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

Hey, hey, hey
Ba-dee-ya
Say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya
Dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya

Ba-du, ba-du, ba-du-da
Ba-du, yeah

My thoughts are with you
Holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay
Now December
Found a love we shared in September
Only blue talk and love, remember
True love we share today

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ba-dee-ya
Say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya (Oh)

Didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I
Could see another sign there

Ooh, and then I suddenly see you
Ooh, and did I tell you that I need you
Every single day of my life?

You didn't run, you didn't lie
You knew I want to hold you
And had you gone, you knew in time
We'd meet again for I had told you

Ooh, you were meant to be near me
Ooh, I really want for you to hear me
Say we'll be together every day

Got to get you into my life (Got to get you into my life)
Got to get you in, got to get you into my life (Got to get you into my life, yeah)

When I see your face
Like the mornin' sun
You spark me to shine

Tell all the world
My need is fulfilled
And that's a new design

As long as you're near
There is no fear
Of a victory

But when I'm away
Influences stray
My mind to disagree

I wanna see your face
In the morning sun
Ignite my energy, ow

The cause and effect of you
Has brought new meaning
In my life to me

Gonna tell the story of morning glory
All about the serpentine fire
Gonna tell the story of morning glory
All about the serpentine fire

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah

I need to see your face
Like the morning sun
Ignite my energy, huh

The cause and effect of you
Has brought new meaning
In my life to me

The moments I find
When I'm inclined
To do my best, oh

The negative wins
When I give in
And then, I lose the test
(Not many times)

Gonna tell the story of morning glory
All about the serpentine fire

Surely as life begun
You will as one
Battle with the serpentine fire

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah

Surely as life begun
You will as one
Battle with the serpentine fire

Surely as life begun
You will as one
Battle with the serpentine fire

Gonna tell the story of morning glory
All about the serpentine fire

Gonna tell the story of morning glory
All about the serpentine fire

It was Saturday night, the moon was bright shining

Saturday night, shining down

It was Saturday night, the moon was bright
Shining down its harvest light
Music all around to hear
Set the stage and atmosphere

Many dress to suit their taste
Participate in the ego race
Tonight's the night for you to be
Biggest man in history

Saturday night's your curtain call
You found your place after all
I saw a face now in the crowd
Saying nothing, talking loud

Life is just a day
Living games we play
London Bridge is falling down
Do what Simon says

Doing what you feel
Games can be unreal
Humpty Dumpty when you fall
There'll be no one here to call
Life is still your mystery
You see, you see, you see

Many friends who gather round
And hope to feel safe and sound
We emphasize to make it clear
Our stumbling nation's atmosphere

While looking through the looking glass
Our visions show a stormy past
When you gonna wake and see the sun?
Stop wasting time and having fun, yeah

Life is just a day
Daily games you play
London Bridge has fallen down
You did what Simon said

Doing what you feel
Games are so unreal
Humpty Dumpty, why'd you fall
You see there's no one here to call
Now we've solved this mystery
You see, you see, you see

Doing what you feel could be unreal
Life is just a day
Life is still a mystery
Daily games we play

Saturday night
Tonight's the night
Participate

Saturday night

When the night is through
When the crowd is gone
And the dream is true, yeah

Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts of men
Who need more than they get
Daylight deals a bad hand to a woman
Who has laid too many bets

The mirror stares you in the face
And says "Baby, uh, uh, it don't work"
You say your prayers though you don't care
You dance and shake the hurt

Dance, boogie wonderland, hah, hah
Dance, boogie wonderland (Ooh, ooh, ooh dance, yeah)

Sound fly through the night
I chase my vinyl dreams to boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland

For awhile, to love was all we could do
We were young and we knew
In our eyes, we're alive
Deep inside, we knew our love was true
For awhile, we paid no mind to the past
We knew love would last
Every night, something right
Would invite us to begin the day

Something happened along the way
What used to be happy is sad
Something happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had

And, oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

For awhile, to love each other with all
We would ever need
Love was strong for so long
Never knew that what was wrong
Oh, baby, wasn't right
We tried to find what we had
'Til sadness was all we shared
We were scared
This affair would lead our love in two

Something happened along the way
Yesterday was all we had
Something happened along the way
What used to be happy is sad
Something happened along the way
Oh, and yesterday was all we had

And, oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

Oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

Oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?
Oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?

Getaway
Let's leave today
Let's getaway

So you say you tried
But you just can't find the pleasure
People around you givin' you pressure
Try to resist all the hurt that's all around you
If you taste it, it will haunt you

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can

Getaway
Let's leave today
Let's getaway

Watch for the signs
That lead in the right direction
Not to heed them is a bad reflection
They'll show you the way
To what you have been seeking
To ignore them you're only cheating

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can getaway
Getaway

Lay awake every night
'Til the sun comes up in the morning
Nothing exciting, it all seems boring
Make up your mind which way to go about it
To your road, you just don't doubt it

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can

Getaway
Let's leave today
Let's getaway
Let's leave today
Let's getaway

Let's getaway
Let's leave today
Let's getaway

Getaway, leave today, getaway, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Getaway, leave today, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
