Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
Dark Beauty;
Meet me at the border late tonight
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,;
I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,;
And all your ragin' glory.
I gotta go;
Find out something only dead men know
You were trying to break into another world;
A world I never knew.;
I always kind of wondered;
If you ever made it through.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
May you have a strong foundation;
When the winds of changes shift
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,;
I saw what I wanted to be
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
I stood unwound beneath the skies;
And clouds unbound by laws.
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry,;
What good am I?
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take;
To find dignity
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,;
Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation;
There are no words that need to be said
Yes, I see you on your window ledge;
But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
Some things last longer than you think they will;
There are some kind of things you can never kill
The night is pitch black, come an' make my;
Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
They said it was the land of milk and honey,;
now they say it's the land of money.;
Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
I looked at my watch;
I looked at my wrist;
I punched myself in the face with my fist
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease;
Until He returns?
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
