If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Have you got some unfinished business?;
Is there something holding you back?;
Are you thinking for yourself;
Or are you following the pack?
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',;
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
Everybody's wearing a disguise;
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame;
I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
If I ever lose her I will go insane;
I go half crazy when she calls my name
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,;
To see that you're madly in love.
Was that the thunder that I heard?;
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
And now the heart is filled with gold;
As if it was a purse.;
But, oh, what kind of love is this;
Which goes from bad to worse?
Everybody must get stoned.
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink;
Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
Yesterday everything was going too fast;
Today, it's moving too slow
Oh it's rush hour now;
On the wheel and the plow;
And the sun is going down;
Upon the sacred cow.
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in;
Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
There's only one step down from here, baby,;
It's called the land of permanent bliss.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Here is your throat back;
Thanks for the loan
There's some people that;
You don't forget,;
Even though you've only seen'm;
One time or two.
If the bible is right, the world will explode
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
Well, you're on your own, you always were,;
In a land of wolves and thieves.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
