If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
If there's a poor boy on the street,;
Then let him have my seat;
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
It's many a guard;
That stands around smilin',;
Holdin' his club;
Like he was a king.
But I mean no harm nor put fault, On anyone that lives in a vault, But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,;
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed;
Dignity never been photographed
Rock me, pretty baby, rock me 'til everything gets real;
Rock me for a little while, rock me 'til there's nothing left to feel;
And I'll rock you too
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,;
If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
Our conversation was short and sweet;
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
You're so damn nonchalant;
But it's your mind that I want.
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
Wallflower, wallflower;
Take a chance on me.;
Please let me ride you home.
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face;
And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
You will search, babe, At any cost.;
But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
That long black cloud is comin' down
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss;
In the valley of the missing link
How did I meet you? I don't know.
You have explained every mystery.;
What can I do for You?
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
Seen the arrow on the doorpost;
Saying, "This land is condemned;
All the way from New Orleans;
To Jerusalem."
