Shine your light, shine your light on me;
Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.;
I'm a little too blind to see
We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love;
Where you and I will unite
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,;
Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
May you have a strong foundation;
When the winds of changes shift
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
I just can't fit;
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
I like the cool way you look at me,;
Everything about you is bringing me;
Misery.
Just do your thing, you'll be king;
If dogs run free.
You'd better do somethin' quick;
She's your lover now.
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,;
Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,;
Should I leave them by your gate,;
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this?
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells;
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you;
It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
Can you tell me what we're waiting for, senor?
At dawn my lover comes to me;
And tells me of her dreams;
With no attempts to shovel the glimpse;
Into the ditch of what each one means
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!";
I say, "I would if I could, but, ;
I don't do sketches from memory."
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
