I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go;
To the valley below
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
An' here I sit so patiently;
Waiting to find out what price;
You have to pay to get out of;
Going through all these things twice.
You could ride like Annie Oakley,;
You could shoot like Belle Starr.
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels;
Trying to peel the moon and expose it
When you think that you lost everything;
You find out you can always lose a little more
And if my thought-dreams could be seen, They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
And you, you took me in,;
You loved me then;
You didn't waste time.
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation;
There are no words that need to be said
it is not he or she or them or it;
That you belong to.
It's many a guard;
That stands around smilin',;
Holdin' his club;
Like he was a king.
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,;
Should I leave them by your gate,;
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
you remind me of something that used to be;
somethin' that crossed over from another century
Won't you come with me, baby?;
I'll take you where you wanna go.;
And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
He got an all girl orchestra and when he says;
"Strike up the band," they hit it
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Mama, take this badge off of me
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
But the magician is quicker and his game;
Is much thicker than blood and blacker than ink
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
Now the rainman gave me two cures,;
Then he said, "Jump right in.";
The one was Texas medicine,;
The other was just railroad gin.
My head tells me it's time to make a change;
But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
