Where black is the color, where none is the number
Does she know I still care?
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
He got an all girl orchestra and when he says; "Strike up the band," they hit it
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
There was music in the cafes at night; And revolution in the air.
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
She once was a true love of mine
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
I gotta go; Find out something only dead men know
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears; In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors; Lookin' into the lost forgotten years; For dignity
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in; Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
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
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.
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.
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.
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
Everybody must get stoned.
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,; When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
I'll remember you; At the end of the trail,; I had so much left to do,; I had so little time to fail.
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,; I saw what I wanted to be
I'm T-boned and punctured; But I'm known to be calm
Shine your light, shine your light on me; Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.; I'm a little too blind to see
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
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?
You got a lotta nerve; To say you are my friend
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
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
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I met you, baby,; You didn't show no visible scars.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
They say ev'rything can be replaced
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
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.
May you build a ladder to the stars; And climb on every rung.
Well, I asked for something to eat; I'm hungry as a hog; So I get brown rice, seaweed; And a dirty hot dog
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
Temptation's not an easy thing
If your mem'ry serves you well,; You'll remember you're the one; That called on me to call on them; To get you your favors done.
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.; He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
Are you still my friend, baby, show me a sign
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
