I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
May you have a strong foundation;
When the winds of changes shift
Did I miss the mark or;
Over-step the line;
That only you could see?
When there is no more,;
You cut to the core;
Quicker than anyone I knew.
When you know as well as me;
You'd rather see me paralyzed
May you build a ladder to the stars;
And climb on every rung.
If the bible is right, the world will explode
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Wealth is a filthy rag;
So erotic so unpatriotic;
So wrapped up in the American flag
In the hills of mystery,;
In the foggy web of destiny,;
You can have what's left of me,;
Where we were born in time.
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
Won't you dance with me?;
I'm fallin' in love with you.
I gotta go;
Find out something only dead men know
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.;
He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
You don't need a weather man;
To know which way the wind blows
Well my house is on fire, burning to the sky
Oh it's rush hour now;
On the wheel and the plow;
And the sun is going down;
Upon the sacred cow.
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss;
In the valley of the missing link
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Sooner or later, one of us must know;
That I really did try to get close to you
