Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
Don't trust me to show you the truth; When the truth may only be ashes and dust.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
An' here I sit so patiently; Waiting to find out what price; You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice.
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
My love she speaks like silence
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
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."
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
Yes, I see you on your window ledge; But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
No knife could ever cut our love apart
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,; But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
Our conversation was short and sweet; It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
I don't need any reminder; To know how much I really care
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
What was it you wanted; When you were kissing my check?
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
Was that the thunder that I heard?; My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
You say you love me; And you're thinkin' of me,; But you know you could be wrong.
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.
A saxophone someplace far off played
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
It ain't my cup of meat.
But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting; That's hanging in the Louvre
I look into the eyes of my merciful friend
And then I ask myself, is this the end?
Memories linger, sad yet sweet
And I think of the souls in heaven who will meet
it is not he or she or them or it; That you belong to.
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?
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
I got nothing left to burn
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
Won't you dance with me?; I'm fallin' in love with you.
In the hills of mystery,; In the foggy web of destiny,; You can have what's left of me,; Where we were born in time.
