This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
I couldn't see what you could show me; Your scarf had kept your mouth well hid
I look into the eyes of my merciful friend
And then I ask myself, is this the end?
Memories linger, sad yet sweet
And I think of the souls in heaven who will meet
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."
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.; He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.
You could ride like Annie Oakley,; You could shoot like Belle Starr.
All the people we used to know; Are an illusion to me now
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
If the bible is right, the world will explode
Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night,; And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,; I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,; For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
My children will go, As soon as they grow.; Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
I'll see you later when I'm not so out of my head,; Maybe next time I'll let the dead bury the dead.
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer; It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
If you're lookin' to get silly; You better go back to from where you came
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
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
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
All right, I'll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
Now, a very great man once said; That some people rob you with a fountain pen.; It didn't take too long to find out; Just what he was talkin' about.
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
I looked at my watch; I looked at my wrist; I punched myself in the face with my fist
When I met you, baby,; You didn't show no visible scars.
Don't follow leaders; Watch the parkin' meters
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
How can I explain?; Oh, it's so hard to get on
I'm walking through streets that are dead
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
Well, there's voices in the night trying to be heard; I'm sitting here listening to every mind polluting word
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,; He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take; To find dignity
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
Well, you're so bad and nasty; But I love you, yes I do
