But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
For all eternity I think I will remember;
That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
Shall I hold you close?;
Or Shall I let you go by?;
Tell me.;
Tell me.
I looked at my watch;
I looked at my wrist;
I punched myself in the face with my fist
I got nothing left to burn
And I, I don't mind the pain;
Don't mind the driving rain;
I know I will sustain;
'Cause I believe in you.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
When you know as well as me;
You'd rather see me paralyzed
A saxophone someplace far off played
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
I'm already there in my mind;
And that's good enough for now
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,;
Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
I see, I see lovers in the meadow;
I see, I see silhouettes in the window;
I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ;
To a shadow
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,;
It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.;
What can I do for You?
My children will go, As soon as they grow.;
Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
Now, don't crowd me, lady;
Or I'll fill up your shoe
That long black cloud is comin' down
Sooner or later, one of us must know;
That I really did try to get close to you
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
