Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
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
All right, I'll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
Guess it's too late to say the things to you; That you needed to hear me say.
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
The angels play on their horns all day,; The whole earth in progression seems to pass by.; But does anyone hear the music they play,; Does anyone even try?
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
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
Everybody's doin' something,; I heard it in a dream,; But when there's too much of nothing,; It just makes a fella mean.
I looked at my watch; I looked at my wrist; I punched myself in the face with my fist
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
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."
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,; Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
I'm T-boned and punctured; But I'm known to be calm
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
For all eternity I think I will remember; That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
she's true, like ice, like fire
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
My love for her is taking such a long time to die
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
You could make me cry if you don't know.
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love; Where you and I will unite
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
Your cracked country lips,; I still wish to kiss,; As to be under the strength of your skin.
Lay down your weary tune, lay down,; Lay down the song you strum,; And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings; No voice can hope to hum.
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
You'd better do somethin' quick; She's your lover now.
You were trying to break into another world; A world I never knew.; I always kind of wondered; If you ever made it through.
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
