Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within
All I really want to do,; Is, baby, be friends with you.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
Does she know I still care?
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,; I saw what I wanted to be
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight; And there's no moon.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
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?
Are you looking at me and thinking of somebody else?
How did I meet you? I don't know.
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
How does it feel
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain; Pay for your ticket and don't complain
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
My children will go, As soon as they grow.; Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
People on the platforms; Waiting for the trains; I can hear their hearts a-beatin'; Like pendulums swinging on chains
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
They used to grow food in Kansas; Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw.; I can see the day coming when even your home garden; Is gonna be against the law.
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
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
I stood unwound beneath the skies; And clouds unbound by laws.
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.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
She's a hypnotist collector
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
And, when I was through; I filled up my shoe; And brought it to you.
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Have you got some unfinished business?; Is there something holding you back?; Are you thinking for yourself; Or are you following the pack?
For all eternity I think I will remember; That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"; He said, "You're not Him"
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
But is your heart made out of stone, or is it lime; Or is it just solid rock?
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
