False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
I want to thank You, Lord,; I just want to thank You, Lord,; Thank You, Lord.
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears; In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors; Lookin' into the lost forgotten years; For dignity
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed; You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love; Where you and I will unite
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,; Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,; With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,; Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
You're gonna have to serve somebody.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Now at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,; Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
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'.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea; Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.
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
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
You don't need a weather man; To know which way the wind blows
If this is love then gimme more; And more and more and more and more.
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
I looked at my watch; I looked at my wrist; I punched myself in the face with my fist
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame; I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
Not one more night, not one more kiss,; Not this time baby, no more of this,; Takes too much skill, takes too much will,; It's revealing.
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
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
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
don't criticize; what you can't understand.
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
It's many a guard; That stands around smilin',; Holdin' his club; Like he was a king.
What good am I if I know and don't do,; I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,; To see that you're madly in love.
But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
