Yes, I see you on your window ledge; But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
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
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
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
No knife could ever cut our love apart
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
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
She's a hypnotist collector
If you're looking for assistance, babe,; Or if you just want some company; Or if you just want a friend you can talk to,; Honey, come and see about me.
Won't you dance with me?; I'm fallin' in love with you.
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
Precious angel, you believe me when I say; What God has given to us no man can take away.
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.; You can't walk the streets in a war
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
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
to live outside the law, you must be honest
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
If there's a poor boy on the street,; Then let him have my seat; 'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
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.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
Can you tell me what we're waiting for, senor?
He bought me with a price,; Freed me from the pit,; Full of emptiness and wrath; And the fire that burns in it.
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
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.
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
Well, you're so bad and nasty; But I love you, yes I do
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
If I had wings and I could fly,; I know where I would go.
A saxophone someplace far off played
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun; I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight; And there's no moon.
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
