I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
Sooner or later, one of us must know; That I really did try to get close to you
If this is love then gimme more; And more and more and more and more.
She knows where I'd like to be; But it doesn't matter.
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
Now the moon is almost hidden; The stars are beginning to hide; The fortunetelling lady; Has even taken all her things inside
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
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.
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
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
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
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've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
Well the desert is hot, the mountain is cursed,; Pray that I don't die of thirst,; Baby, two feet from the well.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
They tell me everything is gonna be all right; But I don't know what "all right" even means
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
The walls of pride are high and wide; Can't see over to the other side; It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay; It's sadder still, to feel your heart torn away
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
As his youth now unfolds; He is centuries old; Just to see him at play makes me smile; No matter what happens to me; No matter what my destiny; Lord, protect my child
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
Three fellas crawlin' on their way back to work,; Nobody stops to ask why.
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
I gotta go; Find out something only dead men know
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
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.
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
I'm walking through streets that are dead
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
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.
And, when I was through; I filled up my shoe; And brought it to you.
Shall I hold you close?; Or Shall I let you go by?; Tell me.; Tell me.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
That's how it is when things disintegrate
You have explained every mystery.; What can I do for You?
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
