Axe "The Child Dreams" 
(lyrics found)

* From album: "Axe"
(with recordings from 1969-1970)

Long ago in times of old

When knights in armour were strong and bold

When fairies lived beneath the trees

And flew about on bumblebees

They bathed and swam in moonlight shafts

And for miles around, you heard their laughs

In toadstools large and small

Are tiny lights and chimneys tall

Fiery dragons roared from caves

Sending out a mistlike haze

Fat stout trolls 'neath bridges lie

Waiting to grab whatever comes by

Think I know of such a place

Where spiders spin pure webs of lace

I will take you there with me

And together, forever we will be

In a land of no return

Like Peter Pan, we'll live and learn

 Cast your mind to yesterday
Do you remember?
It just turns out this way
Do you remember?
Do you remember?

Axe "Peace Of Mind" 
(lyrics found)

* From album: "Axe"
(with recordings from 1969-1970)

Walking on air, my hopes have come true

Lost in a dream, my thoughts all of you

Now I can see my destiny

Now I can say I know the way

Finding the good things better, better

I don't care, what does it matter?

I know I'll find my peace of mind

Talking to people I never knew

Speaking what I think I always do

Now that I know which way to go

My hands will reach for the star

[Finding the good things better] 2x

I don't care, what does it matter?

I know I'll find my peace of mind

Stand in the place 'cause I know I can

Now I can make it, I understand

Feeling so fine just like a charm

It feels so good, I bought it worn

[Finding the good things better] 2x

I don't care, what does it matter?

I know I'll find my peace of mind

Axe "Another Sunset, Another Dawn" 
(lyrics found)

* From album: "Axe"
(with recordings from 1969-1970)

Today a thousand children born

Another sunset, another dawn

Tomorrow someone's life is gone

Who's to say what's right or wrong?

Who should judge to live or die?

Not you, my friend, nor I

What is beyond the space of time?

What is yours cannot be mine

You don't know how false you look

Reading from your small black book

Heaven, hell, what is this place?

You can go, whatever race

People crying, dying, sighing

Laughing, singing, dancing, buying

They are fighting, why you ask?

They are killing, will it last?

It is not theirs to fight for

All they want is more and more

Today a thousand people die

Who's to blame? Not you or I

Tomorrow someone's child is born

Another sunset, another dawn

And so it goes on through the ages

How much longer can it last?
