You will search, babe, At any cost.;
But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.;
Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
What looks large from a distance,;
Close up ain't never that big.
Too many thoughts get in the way in the day
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe;
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said;
"You look like the silent type."
I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain;
You give something up for everything you gain
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,;
That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
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
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
I like the cool way you look at me,;
Everything about you is bringing me;
Misery.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
Now, don't crowd me, lady;
Or I'll fill up your shoe
All the tired horses in the sun;
How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
There was music in the cafes at night;
And revolution in the air.
Does she know I still care?
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense;
I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
Here is your throat back;
Thanks for the loan
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun;
Would treat a father so,;
To wait upon him hand and foot;
And always tell him, "No"?
Everybody's wearing a disguise;
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
