Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
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.
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Leaving men wholly, totally free; To do anything they wish to do but die
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
I was in your presence for an hour or so; Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!"; I say, "I would if I could, but, ; I don't do sketches from memory."
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts,; I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts,; Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart.
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
We grew up together; From the cradle to the grave; We died and were reborn; And then mysteriously saved.
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
Well my house is on fire, burning to the sky
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
People disagreeing everywhere you look,; Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
You think you can hide but you're never alone,; Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.; I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
Precious angel, you believe me when I say; What God has given to us no man can take away.
You cast your spell and I went under,; I find it so difficult to leave.
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.
You know, news of you has come down the line; Even before ya came in the door.; They say in your father's house, there's many mansions; Each one of them got a fireproof floor.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
Now at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
When you cease to exist, then who will you blame?; I've tried my best to love you, but I cannot play this game; Your best friend and my worst enemy is one and the same
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,; Get me a truck 'r somethin'.; Gonna save my money and rip it up!
And now the heart is filled with gold; As if it was a purse.; But, oh, what kind of love is this; Which goes from bad to worse?
May you build a ladder to the stars; And climb on every rung.
