Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
Some things last longer than you think they will;
There are some kind of things you can never kill
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
I was in your presence for an hour or so;
Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
I'll remember you;
At the end of the trail,;
I had so much left to do,;
I had so little time to fail.
People on the platforms;
Waiting for the trains;
I can hear their hearts a-beatin';
Like pendulums swinging on chains
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
I'm walking through streets that are dead
If you're lookin' to get silly;
You better go back to from where you came
Well, there's voices in the night trying to be heard;
I'm sitting here listening to every mind polluting word
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
Precious angel, you believe me when I say;
What God has given to us no man can take away.
When destruction cometh swiftly;
And there's no time to say a fare-thee-well,;
Have you decided whether you want to be;
In heaven or in hell?
Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?
the cops don't need you;
and man they expect the same
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
I looked at my watch;
I looked at my wrist;
I punched myself in the face with my fist
They don't want me around;
'Cause I believe in you.
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
The pump don't work;
'Cause the vandals took the handles
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
