It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
When there is no more,;
You cut to the core;
Quicker than anyone I knew.
Shall I hold you close?;
Or Shall I let you go by?;
Tell me.;
Tell me.
Here is your throat back;
Thanks for the loan
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
And I, I don't mind the pain;
Don't mind the driving rain;
I know I will sustain;
'Cause I believe in you.
But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting;
That's hanging in the Louvre
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,;
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
When you know as well as me;
You'd rather see me paralyzed
I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,;
But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,;
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand;
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
Time is all I have to give
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.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
We pointed out the way to go;
And scratched your name in sand,;
Though you just thought it was nothing more;
Than a place for you to stand.
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,;
Get me a truck 'r somethin'.;
Gonna save my money and rip it up!
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?
Last night I danced with a stranger;
But she just reminded me you were the one
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
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
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,;
Overturn these tables.;
This place don't make sense to me no more.
Just what do you think you have to guard?
