3) Memories (Grapow) 4:53

When I grew up, long long time ago
All the music sound about peace and love
Everybody seemed so groovy and high
But behind the curtain they couldn`t realy fly

What I needed in all those young years
To make up my mind and from up my ears
Was this music which helped a lot
I have these tunes still in my head

Chorus:
Release all your feelings
When you hear these old songs
Now it's time for memories
I like to hold on, on my dreams, my old dreams

A joint in my left, flowers in my head
Send a time- machine to bring back these fine times
A guy with afro-look played this axe like hell
Influenced me really so much and he burned them 
As well

Now I'm here, without fear
I don't wanna listen to that grunge crap here
If you're a kid make me up your mind
Open your eyes don't be blind

Chorus

Now I'm here, without fear
I don't wanna listen that grunge crap here
If you're a kid make me up your mind
Open your eyes don't be blind

Chorus

4) Hold On (Kerry Livgren) 4:07
(from Kansas "Audio Visions" (1980))

Look in the mirror and tell me
Just what you see
What have the years of your life
Taught you to be
Innocence dyin' in so many ways
Things that you dream of  are lost
Lost in the haze

Chorus:
Hold on, baby hold on
'Cause it's closer than you think
And you're standing on the brink
Hold on, baby hold on
'Cause there's something on the way 
Your tomorrow's not the same as today

Don't you recall what you felt
When you weren't alone 
Someone who stood by your side
A face you have known
Where do you run when it's too much to bear
Who do you turn to in need
When nobody's there

Chorus

Outside your door he is waiting
Waiting for you
Sooner or later you know
He's got to get through
No hesitation and no holding back
Let it all go and you'll know
You're on the right track

Chorus
