And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
May you build a ladder to the stars; And climb on every rung.
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love; Where you and I will unite
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
And now the heart is filled with gold; As if it was a purse.; But, oh, what kind of love is this; Which goes from bad to worse?
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,; To see that you're madly in love.
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
Sooner or later, one of us must know; That I really did try to get close to you
We grew up together; From the cradle to the grave; We died and were reborn; And then mysteriously saved.
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
You cast your spell and I went under,; I find it so difficult to leave.
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
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.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
You could ride like Annie Oakley,; You could shoot like Belle Starr.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
If there's a poor boy on the street,; Then let him have my seat; 'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,; That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
There was music in the cafes at night; And revolution in the air.
I need a dump truck mama to unload my head
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun; Would treat a father so,; To wait upon him hand and foot; And always tell him, "No"?
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
What was it you wanted; When you were kissing my check?
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
Precious angel, you believe me when I say; What God has given to us no man can take away.
It ain't my cup of meat.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,; You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,; I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,; And all your ragin' glory.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe; "I thought you'd never say hello," she said; "You look like the silent type."
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
Lost time is not found again
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.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
