Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain;
That could hold you dear lady from going insane
I couldn't see where we were goin';
But you said you knew an' I took your word
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
You say you love me;
And you're thinkin' of me,;
But you know you could be wrong.
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 want to thank You, Lord,;
I just want to thank You, Lord,;
Thank You, Lord.
Turn your back, wash your hands,;
There's always someone who understands
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
Run your fingers down my spine;
Bring me a touch of bliss
They say ev'rything can be replaced
How did I meet you? I don't know.
They don't want me around;
'Cause I believe in you.
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
Leaving men wholly, totally free;
To do anything they wish to do but die
He said his name was Columbus;
I just said, "Good luck."
That's how it is when things disintegrate
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?;
Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
You have explained every mystery.;
What can I do for You?
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
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
You cast your spell and I went under,;
I find it so difficult to leave.
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
I just want you to know;
I can see through your masks
It's mighty funny;
the end of time has just begun
You were trying to break into another world;
A world I never knew.;
I always kind of wondered;
If you ever made it through.
How long can I stay in this nowhere café
Your temperature's too hot for taming
Just what do you think you have to guard?
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
Because something is happening here;
But you don't know what it is;
Do you, Mister Jones?
If the bible is right, the world will explode
No time to suffer or blink;
And no time to think
Well, I try my best;
To be just like I am,;
But everybody wants you;
To be just like them.
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,;
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Precious angel, you believe me when I say;
What God has given to us no man can take away.
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Put your body next to mine;
And keep me company,;
There is plenty a room for all,;
So please don't elbow me.
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
people don’t live or die, people just float
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud;
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
All the tired horses in the sun;
How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
I'm T-boned and punctured;
But I'm known to be calm
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels;
Trying to peel the moon and expose it
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
People on the platforms;
Waiting for the trains;
I can hear their hearts a-beatin';
Like pendulums swinging on chains
People ask about you;
I didn't tell them everything I knew
