Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
Go melt back into the night, babe,; Everything inside is made of stone.; There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Well it's way past midnight and there are people all around; Some on their way up, some on their way down
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
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
It was then that I got up to leave; But she said, "Don't forget,; Everybody must give something back; For something they get."
Lay down your weary tune, lay down,; Lay down the song you strum,; And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings; No voice can hope to hum.
My love she speaks like silence
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink; Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"; He said, "You're not Him"
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
One of these days and it won't be long; Going down in the valley and sing my song; I will sing it loud and sing it strong; Let the echo decide if I was right or wrong
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
They don't want me around; 'Cause I believe in you.
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,; Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail,; Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer; It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
You'd better do somethin' quick; She's your lover now.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
You could make me cry if you don't know.
Won't you come with me, baby?; I'll take you where you wanna go.; And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
You were trying to break into another world; A world I never knew.; I always kind of wondered; If you ever made it through.
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.; Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Louise, she's all right, she's just near; She's delicate and seems like the mirror; But she just makes it all too concise and too clear; That Johanna's not here
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
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
You lose yourself, you reappear
I must be guilty of something,; You just whisper it into my ear.
