Blowing through my losing streak
Bought the farm on a dead-end street Nothing ever grows under your sun Filling voids with emptiness And driving past your old address Loneliness, two has turned to one They welcome you with broken arms Tell you they don't mean no harm Do they mean anything at all? Feeling crowded by my company You can't hate but parts of me I know there's a new myth on your floor Staying up in 409 The days are yours, the nights are mine Burned out everything except the door It's like breaking out of broken homes They tell you they don't eat their own Searching for one thing to call my own To call my own There's a gold mine in the local scene Get nine lives, you need thirteen Paid the price, landed on all fours You used to mean the world to me Scared to death of what that means So it don't mean nothing at all I welcomed you with broken arms You know I don't mean no harm Do I mean anything at all? (ooh, ahh) They all come from broken homes Tell you they don't eat their own Searching for one thing to call my own |

Looking forward to seeing you
In the sunshine of my time In a station off the coastline Coming in view Looking forward to seeing you In that one room down the hallway With two doorways and a window Without a view It all comes in threes I purchase six but I still got three Looking forward to seeing you Where the sun shines off the coastline In a station on your time Coming in view Looking forward to seeing you In that one room down the hallway With two windows and a doorway We can't get through It all comes in threes I purchase six and I still got three Looking forward to seeing you Looking forward to seeing you Looking forward to seeing you Looking forward to seeing you You You You You You |

Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
Don't let your feet ever touch the ground Aw, comfort me in times of doubt Deep despair, lies and cares and a falling out With my friends I used to follow Nearly everybody's daughter That's until you came along In a barroom, patrons singing But I just sat there drinking That's until you came along Your star-crossed eyes and your troubled mind Seems you were left just for me to find Sweet lady, lay your hand in mine Upon my face laid to waste by years of wine With my friends I used to follow Nearly everybody's daughter That's until you came along In a barroom, patrons singing But I just sat there drinking That's until you came along Sweet lady, lay your hand in mine Upon my face laid to waste by years of wine With my friends I used to follow Nearly everybody's daughter That's until you came along In a barroom, patrons singing But I just sat there drinking That's until you came along With my friends I used to follow Nearly everybody's daughter That's until you came along But the darkness just got darker This heart of mine got harder That's until you came along |

Lost love in the desert
Lost love on the sea If you can put it behind you But it's still beyond me 'Cause hearts break in the summer And they meet me in the spring Broken hearts all around me But I don't feel a thing Lost love on the highway Lost love on the phone Lost love with a suitcase Heading back home Where hearts break in the summer And they meet in the spring Mine's still wrapped inside me But I don't feel a thing You're my lost love, I can't see That you're coming back for me You're the trouble I can't find And it's only a matter of time Should've taken it all so hard Should've taken it all so hard My lost love My lost love My lost love My lost love |

If I only had a car
Wouldn't be here in this bar Trying to get to you Time takes toll The hours I'd roll Is it a blessing or is it a curse? Seems this love makes matters worse I'm stuck in this cafe Lost along the way Moving to keep strong When I'm feeling myself burn It don't matter let it hurt It tells me I'm alive When you saw me in California I was lost in a dusty haze Now that I know you You feel so far away If I only had a car Wouldn't be here in this bar Trying to get to you As I'm waving you goodbye Following the line Trying to get to you Still the echos fill the void Your eyes rolled in your head As you slowly disappeared Still hard to rearrange The distance made it strange I'm still trying to get to you If I only had a car Wouldn't be here in this bar Trying to get to you |

She came from a wealthy family
There were walls inside of walls She walked the widow's walk, so all alone She watched from every window Darkened every door Saw her reflection on every wave that hit the shore Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? Wandered off into the night One eye closed, the other blind Reading the silver side of signs Don't worry, it's too late Some rain don't come down straight Everything you had, you lost before Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? When her scattered thoughts had died The sand upon her feet had dried Among chandeliers and sweet perfume Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? Jane, why don't you give a damn? Jane, why don't you stay? Stay Ooh |

She had a Nova that was tinted green
He took a Greyhound that was a bus From the city of New Orleans The only light that shined in their eyes Was that of a simple screen In a one Bal Harbour bedroom apartment With a vision and a dream Feeling like they sunk already Feeling like they're done Knowing what's been done already Has been done by everyone Deep in Nevada they played it straight They stayed in Reno inside a casino With a 2/4 rate The only life that was in their eyes Was burning like the sun It is this sundowner hellroom confinement Where they remained as one Feeling like they sunk already Feeling like they're done Knowing what's been done already Has been done by everyone Back in Miami Back in Miami, back to the sand He took to running that was illegal She ran a peanut stand The only night he closed his eyes was his final one In a one Bal Harbour bedroom apartment Where his dream begun Feeling like they sunk already Feeling like they're done Knowing what's been done already Has been done by everyone Now they're living in Miami Trying to get down to the Keys Is it lost, is it such a cost When you try to aim to please Down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap They took it down for the dirt nap |

Hey, ain't it great for us to be alive
I've been lying in wait for you to come outside I know you don't know me but I know a lot about you You're the one who knows me better than I do When I get back home I'm gonna put your records on I play 'em way too loud and I'll sing along I know all the words to every song And I don't really care but tonight you sang one wrong And I, I can't keep from talking I can't keep from talking about you And I just wanted to thank you Thank you for doing what you do I wanted to tell the world a little bit about myself Realize my feelings and put them on a shelf Then jump out the window so you'd know what it's all about 'Cause I can't be there to help you figure it out And I, I can't keep from talking I can't keep from talking about you And I just wanted to thank you Thank you for doing what you do |

If we were just a little smarter
Wouldn't be such fire starters Then you wouldn't have to put me out If times were just a little kinder Carry you as a reminder As is, you say you've got some doubts You say you're looking through me You don't like what you see But I swear It's only reflections on me Seeing through a two-way mirror Looking back it's all a little clearer Or just the line-up of your life All day long you put 'em through their paces Late at night haunted by their faces Darkness fades into the morning light (ooh) You say you're looking through me Scared of the things that you see But I swear It's only reflections on me One more time for old times Come with me Just one last time for all times Seeing you just the same way Differently Could have been a little smarter Shouldn't have been such fire starters Fires they always burn out You say you're looking through me Scared of the things that you see But I swear It's only reflections on me |

Saw your eyes light up the horizon
Just like the sun, still it's new Bodies being hung for drying Now there's one, guess they're through Making waves in the bathroom The time it saves, it's the last room Hearing sirens on the street Getting closer, please don't stop Race won't be with these feet Even closer comes the drop Making waves in the bathroom The time it saves, it's the last room Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now In the chair I thought you were sleeping Your eyes rolled back, your lips blue It was a drag to be dragging You down the hall till you came to Making waves in the bathroom The times it saves, it's the last room Are you in there? Hello, hello, hello? (I'll be out in a while) Are you in there? Hello, hello, hello? (I'll be out in a while) Are you in there? Hello, hello, hello? (I'll be out in a while) Are you dying, hello? Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now Ooh, don't leave me now |

The wheels are spinning inside of my head
The wheels are spinning inside of my head They don't know The leaves listen to what I say The leaves listen to what I say They don't know It's a stab in the dark The light slept on the riverbed The light slept on the riverbed Slipped into the shadows And landed like a figurehead The moral night is the darkest night The moral night is the darkest night They don't know I cut my feet on the white shell road I cut my feet on the white shell road They don't know, they don't know It's a stab in the dark The light slept on the riverbed The light slept on the riverbed Slipped into the shadows And landed like a figurehead Then I saw her running Down, down in the garden Her hair was flowing round and brown Tumbled and stumbled to the ground and died The leaves listen to what I say The leaves listen to what I say They don't know, they don't know I cut my feet on the white shell road I cut my feet on the white shell road They don't know, they don't know It's a stab in the dark The light slept on the riverbed The light slept on the riverbed Slipped into the shadows And landed like a figurehead (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) (They don't know) It's a stab in the dark |

I am not a shadow, I am flesh and blood
Meet me in the middle if you think you could If you think you could If I'm walking in the dark I'm whispering If I'm walking in the dark I'm whispering Follow my whisper And I will see you through If I make three wishes One is not to fall The other two will follow Beyond the wall If the world spins faster on my knees I crawl If the world spins faster on my knees I crawl On my knees I crawl Straight on back to you If I make three wishes One is not to fall The other two will follow Beyond the wall Yeah I am not a shadow I am flesh and blood Meet me in the middle if you think you could If you think you could I will see you through If you think you could I will see you through |

Met a man on a train near Santa Fe
Who was dead a minute as a child Fell off a dock He couldn't swim and his heart stopped A gold snake slid from the sky and swallowed him up He disappeared inside He disappeared inside The train stopped in a field of oil wells A blind girl needed help getting on The man was drunk from a flask half full of rum I shook my head when he offered me some "Que sera," he said and took another swig The train roared up a hill of sickly pines A small boy chased a ball up the aisle As the black mouth of a tunnel swallowed us up We disappeared inside We disappeared inside There we go |
