I like the cool way you look at me,; Everything about you is bringing me; Misery.
Just what do you think you have to guard?
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts,; I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts,; Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart.
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
There's only one step down from here, baby,; It's called the land of permanent bliss.
My love she speaks like silence
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
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
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
She once was a true love of mine
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
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.
But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting; That's hanging in the Louvre
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
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.
Well it's way past midnight and there are people all around; Some on their way up, some on their way down
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
You know, the streets are filled with vipers; Who've lost all ray of hope,; You know, it ain't even safe no more; In the palace of the Pope.
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea; Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
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
But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
Democracy don't rule the world,; You'd better get that in your head.; This world is ruled by violence; But I guess that's better left unsaid.
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation; There are no words that need to be said
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too; Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,; I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,; I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
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.
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
All I really want to do,; Is, baby, be friends with you.
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door; Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
Searching for my double, looking for; Complete evaporation to the core
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,; Carefully removes his fez,; "Am I hearin' you right?"
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
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.
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
