But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
She once was a true love of mine
Well, you're so bad and nasty; But I love you, yes I do
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
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.
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously; But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately.
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Every brain is civilized,; Every nerve is analyzed,; Everything is criticized when you are in need.
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain; That could hold you dear lady from going insane
How does it feel
to live outside the law, you must be honest
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Not one more night, not one more kiss,; Not this time baby, no more of this,; Takes too much skill, takes too much will,; It's revealing.
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,; Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,; With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,; Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Whatever you wanted; Slipped out of my mind
One of these days and it won't be long; Going down in the valley and sing my song; I will sing it loud and sing it strong; Let the echo decide if I was right or wrong
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
People are crazy and times are strange
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
What looks large from a distance,; Close up ain't never that big.
Now, don't crowd me, lady; Or I'll fill up your shoe
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Turn your back, wash your hands,; There's always someone who understands
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
