Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Does she know I still care?
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
One of these days and it won't be long; Going down in the valley and sing my song; I will sing it loud and sing it strong; Let the echo decide if I was right or wrong
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'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
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.
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand; In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
Everybody must get stoned.
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun; "I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
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
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
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 at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
Can't you make any sound?
You cast your spell and I went under,; I find it so difficult to leave.
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,; When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
Leaving men wholly, totally free; To do anything they wish to do but die
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath; But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
Well, I asked for something to eat; I'm hungry as a hog; So I get brown rice, seaweed; And a dirty hot dog
We pointed out the way to go; And scratched your name in sand,; Though you just thought it was nothing more; Than a place for you to stand.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe; "I thought you'd never say hello," she said; "You look like the silent type."
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
I got nothing left to burn
I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,; Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail,; Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
