It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
Temptation's not an easy thing
Dark Beauty; Meet me at the border late tonight
If the bible is right, the world will explode
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
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
You'd better do somethin' quick; She's your lover now.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
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.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
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'm in a cowboy band
Can't you make any sound?
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
They say ev'rything can be replaced
My children will go, As soon as they grow.; Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
But is your heart made out of stone, or is it lime; Or is it just solid rock?
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
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
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
I still can remember the way that you smiled
People disagreeing everywhere you look,; Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
She's a hypnotist collector
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
You speak to me; In sign language; As I'm eating a sandwich
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells; I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,; Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
Darkness at the break of noon
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
I need a dump truck mama to unload my head
And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
You got a lotta nerve; To say you are my friend
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
What was it you wanted; When you were kissing my check?
