Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
For all eternity I think I will remember; That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
You speak to me; In sign language; As I'm eating a sandwich
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation; There are no words that need to be said
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
I'm already there in my mind; And that's good enough for now
Have I surrendered to the will of God; Or am I still acting like the boss?
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.; Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"; He said, "You're not Him"
Insanity is smashing up against my soul; You can say I was on anything but a roll; If I had a conscience, well I just might blow my top; What would I do with it anyway ; Maybe take it to the pawn shop
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
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
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."
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?
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
I wasn't born to lose you.
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,; But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
Now the moon is almost hidden; The stars are beginning to hide; The fortunetelling lady; Has even taken all her things inside
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
People on the platforms; Waiting for the trains; I can hear their hearts a-beatin'; Like pendulums swinging on chains
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
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
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
As his youth now unfolds; He is centuries old; Just to see him at play makes me smile; No matter what happens to me; No matter what my destiny; Lord, protect my child
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
There are those who worship loneliness, I'm not one of them
Any day now, any day now,; I shall be released.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Now, don't crowd me, lady; Or I'll fill up your shoe
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
There's some people that; You don't forget,; Even though you've only seen'm; One time or two.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy; When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.; Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
Don't trust me to show you the truth; When the truth may only be ashes and dust.
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain; That could hold you dear lady from going insane
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
