Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
I'll remember you; At the end of the trail,; I had so much left to do,; I had so little time to fail.
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.
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,; Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
That long black cloud is comin' down
I see, I see lovers in the meadow; I see, I see silhouettes in the window; I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ; To a shadow
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
We grew up together; From the cradle to the grave; We died and were reborn; And then mysteriously saved.
I'm T-boned and punctured; But I'm known to be calm
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Now, don't crowd me, lady; Or I'll fill up your shoe
don't criticize; what you can't understand.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
They say ev'rything can be replaced
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
What good am I if I say foolish things; And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings; And I just turn my back while you silently die,; What good am I?
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
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.
I want to thank You, Lord,; I just want to thank You, Lord,; Thank You, Lord.
Does she know I still care?
Has the record been breaking,; Did the needle just skip
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too; Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
It was then that I got up to leave; But she said, "Don't forget,; Everybody must give something back; For something they get."
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
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
Tough Mama; Can I blow a little smoke on you?
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
This wheel shall explode!
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
No knife could ever cut our love apart
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
I was in your presence for an hour or so; Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,; It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
Louise, she's all right, she's just near; She's delicate and seems like the mirror; But she just makes it all too concise and too clear; That Johanna's not here
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
How did I meet you? I don't know.
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
My heart's in the Highlands at the break of dawn; By the beautiful lake of the Black Swan; Big white clouds, like chariots that swing down low; Well my heart's in the Highlands; Only place left to go
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.
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
