You have explained every mystery.; What can I do for You?
Give ya delusions of grandeur; And a evil eye; Give you idea that; You're too good to die
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
Have you got some unfinished business?; Is there something holding you back?; Are you thinking for yourself; Or are you following the pack?
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame; I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
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
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
All right, I'll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
I wasn't born to lose you.
Let's try to get beneath the surface waste, girl,; No more booby traps and bombs,; No more decadence and charm,; No more affection that's misplaced, girl
Shine your light, shine your light on me; Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.; I'm a little too blind to see
May you always know the truth; And see the lights surrounding you.
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense; I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,; Get me a truck 'r somethin'.; Gonna save my money and rip it up!
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
The world of illusion is at my door
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
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
For all eternity I think I will remember; That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
All the tired horses in the sun; How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
I couldn't see where we were goin'; But you said you knew an' I took your word
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
time is running backwards
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
Just what do you think you have to guard?
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.
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
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.
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
