Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
Whatever you wanted; Slipped out of my mind
They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
Your temperature's too hot for taming
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
Oh, the only decent thing I did when I worked as a postal clerk; Was to haul your picture down off the wall near the cage where I used to work.; Was I a fool or not to try to protect your identity?; You looked a little burned out, my friend,; I thought it might be up to me.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand; In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"; He said, "You're not Him"
All the laughter is just making me sad
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still
All the tired horses in the sun; How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
You're the one I've been looking for,; You're the one that's got the key.; But I can't figure out whether I'm too good for you; Or you're too good for me.
Now there's spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down.; Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground.
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.
And you never ask questions; When God's on your side.
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in; Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night,; And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,; I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,; For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
Everybody's doin' something,; I heard it in a dream,; But when there's too much of nothing,; It just makes a fella mean.
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
Shine your light, shine your light on me; Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.; I'm a little too blind to see
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.; Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
