Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
May you always know the truth; And see the lights surrounding you.
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
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?
I'll remember you; At the end of the trail,; I had so much left to do,; I had so little time to fail.
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
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
The treasure can't be found by men who search
I'd never say; That I done it the way; That you'd have liked me to.
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,; He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
But I mean no harm nor put fault, On anyone that lives in a vault, But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
What looks large from a distance,; Close up ain't never that big.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
There are those who worship loneliness, I'm not one of them
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!"; I say, "I would if I could, but, ; I don't do sketches from memory."
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
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
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
I couldn't see what you could show me; Your scarf had kept your mouth well hid
Glamorous nymph with an arrow and bow
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,; But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
Rock me, pretty baby, rock me 'til everything gets real; Rock me for a little while, rock me 'til there's nothing left to feel; And I'll rock you too
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
You got a lotta nerve; To say you are my friend
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
You were snow, you were rain; You were striped, you were plain,;
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
We pointed out the way to go; And scratched your name in sand,; Though you just thought it was nothing more; Than a place for you to stand.
When you cease to exist, then who will you blame?; I've tried my best to love you, but I cannot play this game; Your best friend and my worst enemy is one and the same
All the laughter is just making me sad
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,; When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
So long, New York.; Howdy, East Orange.
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
You know, news of you has come down the line; Even before ya came in the door.; They say in your father's house, there's many mansions; Each one of them got a fireproof floor.
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 remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
It was then that I got up to leave; But she said, "Don't forget,; Everybody must give something back; For something they get."
Won't you dance with me?; I'm fallin' in love with you.
Run your fingers down my spine; Bring me a touch of bliss
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.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
Oh it's rush hour now; On the wheel and the plow; And the sun is going down; Upon the sacred cow.
That's how it is when things disintegrate
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag; Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag; Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
