And every one of them words rang true; And glowed like burnin' coal; Pourin' off of every page; Like it was written in my soul from me to you
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
In the hills of mystery,; In the foggy web of destiny,; You can have what's left of me,; Where we were born in time.
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
It's the ways of the flesh to war against the spirit; Twenty-four hours a day you can feel it and you can hear it; Using all the devices under the sun.
Have I surrendered to the will of God; Or am I still acting like the boss?
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun; I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within
I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound; Someone's always yelling turn it down
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
Put your ear to the train tracks, put your ear to the ground,; You ever feel like you're never alone even when there's nobody else around?; Since the beginning of the universe man's been cursed by trouble.
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense; I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
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
If I had wings and I could fly,; I know where I would go.
I stood unwound beneath the skies; And clouds unbound by laws.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door; Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
If I ever lose her I will go insane; I go half crazy when she calls my name
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
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.
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
Could you ever be true?
Well the desert is hot, the mountain is cursed,; Pray that I don't die of thirst,; Baby, two feet from the well.
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave,; "Let's go and play Adam and Eve."; I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin'; When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin',; You see what happened last time they started."
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
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.
All the laughter is just making me sad
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
What good am I if I know and don't do,; I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
