Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,; I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,; When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
Democracy don't rule the world,; You'd better get that in your head.; This world is ruled by violence; But I guess that's better left unsaid.
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
You cast your spell and I went under,; I find it so difficult to leave.
She once was a true love of mine
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,; Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
Your temperature's too hot for taming
If you're lookin' to get silly; You better go back to from where you came
I don't need any reminder; To know how much I really care
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells; I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
Can you tell me what we're waiting for, senor?
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
How did I meet you? I don't know.
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
I must admit I felt a little uneasy; When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
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'.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
The treasure can't be found by men who search
There's only one step down from here, baby,; It's called the land of permanent bliss.
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed; You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
Yes, I know now, traps are only set by me; And I do not really need to be; Assured that love is just a four-letter word
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
And then you told me later, as I apologized; That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
You could ride like Annie Oakley,; You could shoot like Belle Starr.
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.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
I've been hit too hard, I've seen too much; Nothing can heal me now, but your touch
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
People are crazy and times are strange
My heart's in the Highlands at the break of dawn; By the beautiful lake of the Black Swan; Big white clouds, like chariots that swing down low; Well my heart's in the Highlands; Only place left to go
