What was it you wanted;
When you were kissing my check?

Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',;
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats;
Too noble to neglect;
Deceived me into thinking;
I had something to protect

She says, "What'll it be?";
I say, "I don't know, you got any soft boiled eggs?"

You were snow, you were rain;
You were striped, you were plain,;

I need a dump truck mama to unload my head

Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth

We're both just one too many mornings;
An' a thousand miles behind.

People tell me it's a sin;
To know and feel too much within.

Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,;
I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,;
And all your ragin' glory.

Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted

And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.

Whatever you wanted;
Slipped out of my mind

Shall I hold you close?;
Or Shall I let you go by?;
Tell me.;
Tell me.

Yes, I see you on your window ledge;
But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge

I'll give you more gold;
Than your apron can hold;
If you'll only let your hair hang low

Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.

Sooner or later, one of us must know;
That I really did try to get close to you

I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me

The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun

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.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup

Guess it's too late to say the things to you;
That you needed to hear me say.

I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.

And if my thought-dreams could be seen, They'd probably put my head in a guillotine

We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun

People are crazy and times are strange

Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,;
But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."

All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies

Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss;
In the valley of the missing link

Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?

If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born

You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

When you know as well as me;
You'd rather see me paralyzed

I see people in the park forgetting their troubles and woes;
They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright colored clothes;
All the young men with their young women looking so good;
Well, I'd trade places with any of them ;
In a minute, if I could

What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood

You think you can hide but you're never alone,;
Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.

Oh the fishes will laugh;
As they swim out of the path;
And the seagulls they'll be smiling.

Dark Beauty;
Meet me at the border late tonight

I finally realize there's no room for regret

She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back

Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.

Every brain is civilized,;
Every nerve is analyzed,;
Everything is criticized when you are in need.

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."

I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop

We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,;
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.

I still can remember the way that you smiled

Everything passes,;
Everything changes,;
Just do what you think you should do.

The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder

Well, I asked for something to eat;
I'm hungry as a hog;
So I get brown rice, seaweed;
And a dirty hot dog

My conscience is beginning to bother me today.

I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man;
like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand

Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.

The door has closed forevermore If indeed there ever was a door

Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?

I got nothing left to burn

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.
