Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
He said his name was Columbus;
I just said, "Good luck."
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
I got a poison headache,;
But I feel all right
When the last rays of daylight go down;
Buddy, you'll roll no more;
I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard;
I wonder who they're ringing for
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
I gotta go;
Find out something only dead men know
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
Sooner or later, one of us must know;
That I really did try to get close to you
Go melt back into the night, babe,;
Everything inside is made of stone.;
There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats;
Too noble to neglect;
Deceived me into thinking;
I had something to protect
You should be made;
To wear earphones
I'm going back to New York City;
I do believe I've had enough
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,;
That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,;
When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.;
I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
