Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
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.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
I couldn't see where we were goin'; But you said you knew an' I took your word
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't; But not tonight and it won't be here; There are things I could say but I don't; I know the mercy of God must be near
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
Any day now, any day now,; I shall be released.
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to; Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
How can I explain?; Oh, it's so hard to get on
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink; Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came.
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,; Carefully removes his fez,; "Am I hearin' you right?"
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
There are those who worship loneliness, I'm not one of them
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
I got a poison headache,; But I feel all right
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
There's some people that; You don't forget,; Even though you've only seen'm; One time or two.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Can you tell me what we're waiting for, senor?
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take; To find dignity
All the laughter is just making me sad
Well, if I had to do it all over again,; Babe, I'd do it all over you.
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
I'm in a cowboy band
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
Lay down your weary tune, lay down,; Lay down the song you strum,; And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings; No voice can hope to hum.
Run your fingers down my spine; Bring me a touch of bliss
She knows where I'd like to be; But it doesn't matter.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
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?
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
She's a hypnotist collector
My love for her is taking such a long time to die
My love she speaks like silence
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.
