I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath;
But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
I'm in love with the Ugliest Girl in the World
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
I've been hit too hard, I've seen too much;
Nothing can heal me now, but your touch
And, when I was through;
I filled up my shoe;
And brought it to you.
How long can I stay in this nowhere café
Gonna sleep down in the parlor;
And relive my dreams
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
She knows where I'd like to be;
But it doesn't matter.
Does she know I still care?
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
People are crazy and times are strange
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
So long, New York.;
Howdy, East Orange.
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?;
You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
Oh the fishes will laugh;
As they swim out of the path;
And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
When I met you, baby,;
You didn't show no visible scars.
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
As the last fire truck from hell;
Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got;
Seen better times, but who has not?
Sooner or later, one of us must know;
That I really did try to get close to you
