He bought me with a price,;
Freed me from the pit,;
Full of emptiness and wrath;
And the fire that burns in it.
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,;
To see that you're madly in love.
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease;
Until He returns?
And you never ask questions;
When God's on your side.
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
Some things are too hot to touch;
The human mind can only stand so much
I got new eyes ;
Everything looks far away
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud;
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
Lost time is not found again
you remind me of something that used to be;
somethin' that crossed over from another century
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
If God's on our side;
He'll stop the next war.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor;
And relive my dreams
You were snow, you were rain;
You were striped, you were plain,;
My children will go, As soon as they grow.;
Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
How can I explain?;
Oh, it's so hard to get on
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go;
To the valley below
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
Silver and gold;
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Leaving men wholly, totally free;
To do anything they wish to do but die
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
I'm already there in my mind;
And that's good enough for now
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
