We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
Seen the arrow on the doorpost; Saying, "This land is condemned; All the way from New Orleans; To Jerusalem."
Now the moon is almost hidden; The stars are beginning to hide; The fortunetelling lady; Has even taken all her things inside
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade; And watch the young torero stand alone.; We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed; When they rode with Villa into Torreon.
Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't; But not tonight and it won't be here; There are things I could say but I don't; I know the mercy of God must be near
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
I wasn't born to lose you.
The night passed away so quickly; It always does when you're with me.
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry,; What good am I?
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Give ya delusions of grandeur; And a evil eye; Give you idea that; You're too good to die
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
My love she speaks like silence
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
What was it you wanted; When you were kissing my check?
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
They don't want me around; 'Cause I believe in you.
Well, I wake in the morning, Fold my hands and pray for rain.; I got a head full of ideas, That are drivin' me insane.
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind; You could have done better but I don't mind; You just kinda wasted my precious time
This wheel shall explode!
Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in; Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency,; All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
I must be guilty of something,; You just whisper it into my ear.
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
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?
Now, a very great man once said; That some people rob you with a fountain pen.; It didn't take too long to find out; Just what he was talkin' about.
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
He bought me with a price,; Freed me from the pit,; Full of emptiness and wrath; And the fire that burns in it.
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
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
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
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,; Carefully removes his fez,; "Am I hearin' you right?"
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
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
And then you told me later, as I apologized; That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
