We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
Nobody feels any pain
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
Was that the thunder that I heard?; My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
There's some people that; You don't forget,; Even though you've only seen'm; One time or two.
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Yes, I know now, traps are only set by me; And I do not really need to be; Assured that love is just a four-letter word
I see people in the park forgetting their troubles and woes; They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright colored clothes; All the young men with their young women looking so good; Well, I'd trade places with any of them ; In a minute, if I could
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
Your temperature's too hot for taming
Go melt back into the night, babe,; Everything inside is made of stone.; There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
Give ya delusions of grandeur; And a evil eye; Give you idea that; You're too good to die
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
I like the cool way you look at me,; Everything about you is bringing me; Misery.
Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came.
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to; Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else
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.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency,; All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,; To see that you're madly in love.
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
I got nothing left to burn
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
At dawn my lover comes to me; And tells me of her dreams; With no attempts to shovel the glimpse; Into the ditch of what each one means
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
Searching for my double, looking for; Complete evaporation to the core
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.
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind; You could have done better but I don't mind; You just kinda wasted my precious time
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.; I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
When I met you, baby,; You didn't show no visible scars.
She once was a true love of mine
If I had wings and I could fly,; I know where I would go.
When destruction cometh swiftly; And there's no time to say a fare-thee-well,; Have you decided whether you want to be; In heaven or in hell?
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
An' here I sit so patiently; Waiting to find out what price; You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice.
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
