Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Time is all I have to give
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
Oh my name it is nothin';
My age it means less
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun;
Would treat a father so,;
To wait upon him hand and foot;
And always tell him, "No"?
the cops don't need you;
and man they expect the same
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
When there is no more,;
You cut to the core;
Quicker than anyone I knew.
All the tired horses in the sun;
How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
It's mighty funny;
the end of time has just begun
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer;
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
time is running backwards
There's some people that;
You don't forget,;
Even though you've only seen'm;
One time or two.
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,;
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,;
For the child that cries;
When innocence dies.
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?
You lose yourself, you reappear
You know, the streets are filled with vipers;
Who've lost all ray of hope,;
You know, it ain't even safe no more;
In the palace of the Pope.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun;
I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Yes, I see you on your window ledge;
But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
