I've already ripped out the phones, honey.; You can't walk the streets in a war
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.
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
If you're lookin' to get silly; You better go back to from where you came
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
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.
All the laughter is just making me sad
Time is all I have to give
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
Don't trust me to show you love; When my love may be only lust.
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Temptation's not an easy thing
Sooner or later, one of us must know; That I really did try to get close to you
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
I want to thank You, Lord,; I just want to thank You, Lord,; Thank You, Lord.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
You're the one I've been looking for,; You're the one that's got the key.; But I can't figure out whether I'm too good for you; Or you're too good for me.
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun; Would treat a father so,; To wait upon him hand and foot; And always tell him, "No"?
I see, I see lovers in the meadow; I see, I see silhouettes in the window; I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ; To a shadow
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
Seen the arrow on the doorpost; Saying, "This land is condemned; All the way from New Orleans; To Jerusalem."
A saxophone someplace far off played
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
She once was a true love of mine
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
I'll see you later when I'm not so out of my head,; Maybe next time I'll let the dead bury the dead.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,; It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
Silver and gold; Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
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."
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
They said it was the land of milk and honey,; now they say it's the land of money.; Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
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'.
