You can make me cry;
Never say goodbye
You could make me cry if you don't know.
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
They tell me everything is gonna be all right;
But I don't know what "all right" even means
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I can smile in the face of mankind.;
Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine;
Most of the time.
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun;
"I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain;
You give something up for everything you gain
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Shall I hold you close?;
Or Shall I let you go by?;
Tell me.;
Tell me.
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
We always did feel the same,;
We just saw it from a different point of view
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
Tell ev'rybody;
Down in ol' 'Frisco;
That Tiny Montgomery's comin';
Down to say Hello
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.
There's some people that;
You don't forget,;
Even though you've only seen'm;
One time or two.
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
You think you can hide but you're never alone,;
Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
don't criticize;
what you can't understand.
We're idiots, babe.;
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.
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.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?;
You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
it is not he or she or them or it;
That you belong to.
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
What good am I if I know and don't do,;
I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
How long can I stay in this nowhere café
