Dave Matthews Band - Weekend On The Rocks [compilation, live] (2005) by Dave Matthews Band (보컬) on maniadb.com

I've this creeping
Suspicion that things here are not as they seem
Reassure me
Why do I feel as if I'm in too deep?
Now I've been praying
For some way to show them
I'm not what they see
Yes, I have done wrong
But what I did I thought needed be done
I swear

Oh, Unholy day
If I leave now I might get away
Oh, but this weighs on me
As heavy as stone and as blue as I go
I was just wondering if you'd come along
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's what you want
But if not I'll go
I will go alone
I'm a long way
From that fool's mistake
And now forever pay
No, run
I will run and I'll be ok
I was just wondering if you'd come along
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's what you want
But if not I'll go
I will go alone
I go a long way
To bury the past for I don't want to pay
Oh, how I wish this
To turn back the clock and do over again
Now I'm just wondering if you'd come along
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's what you want
But if not I'll go
I will go alone

I need so
To stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you close
And oh it weighs on me
As heavy as stone and of bone chilling cold
I was just wondering if you'd come along
Tell me you will.

if these walls came crumbling down
and fell so hard to make us lose our faith
from what's left you'd figure it out
and still make lemonade taste like a sunny day

stay beautiful, baby
I hope you stay American, baby
American baby

nobody's laughing now
God's grace lost and the devil is proud
but I've been walking for a thousand miles
one last time I could see you smile

I, I, hold, hold on to you
you bring me hope I'll see you soon,
and if I don't see you
I'm afraid we've lost the way

stay beautiful, baby
I hope you stay American, baby
American baby
American baby

(that's the way) I hold on to you,
you lift me up and always will
I see you in light
hope I don't get left behind

I, I, hold, hold on to you,
you bring me hope I'll see you soon
and if I don't see you
I'm afraid we've lost the way

stay beautiful, baby
I hope you stay American, baby
I hope you stay beautiful, baby
I hope you stay American, baby
American baby
American baby

Stay American, baby
beautiful

nobody's laughing now
'cause you could always make me laugh out loud

stay American, baby
American baby
stay American, baby
American baby

It's the time of the season
When the love runs high
In this time, give it to me easy
And let me try
With pleasured hands

To take you and the sun to
Promised lands
To show you every one
It's the time of the season for loving

What's your name?
(What's your name?)
Who's your daddy?
(Who's your daddy? He rich?)
Is he rich like me?

Has he taken
(Has he taken)
Any time
(Any time to show)
To show you what you need to live?
Tell it to me slowly
Tell you what?
I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving

What's your name?
(What's your name?)
Who's your daddy?
(Who's your daddy? He rich?)
Is he rich like me?

Has he taken
(Has he taken)
Any time
(Any time to show)
To show you what you need to live?
Tell it to me slowly
Tell you what?
I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving

So here we are tonight,
you and me together
The storm outside, and the fire is bright
Oh, and in your eyes I see
what's on my mind
You've got me wild
turned around inside
Oh and then desire, see, is creeping
up heavy, oh inside here
And I know you feel the same way as
I do now
let's make this an evening
Lovers for a night, lovers for tonight
Stay here with me, love, tonight
just for an evening
When we will make it,
our passionate pictures
You and me twist up;
secret creatures
And we'll stay here
Tomorrow go back to being friends
Yeah, Oh, go back to being friends
But tonight let's be lovers,
We kiss and sweat
We'll turn this better thing
to the best
Of all we can offer, Oh this rogue kiss
Tangled tongues and lips,
See me this way
I'm turning and turning for you
Oh Girl, oh just tonight

Run away here with me
On an evening oh just wait and see
But tomorrow go back to your man
I'm back to my world
And we're back to being friends
Oh wait and see me,
Oh tonight let's do this thing
All we are is wasting hours
until the sun comes.. it's all ours
On our way here
Tomorrow go back to being friends

Yeah, Oh go back to being friends
Tonight let's be lovers, oh please
Tonight let's be lovers, say you will
Tonight let's be lovers, oh yeah
Tonight let's be lovers
And hear me call, oh soft-spoken whispering love
Well, a thing or two I have to say here
Tonight let's go all the way then
Oh Love I can see you,
Just for an evening
Oh, let's strip down, trip out at this
One evening starts with a kiss
and away yeah.. yeah

And tomorrow
back to being friends yeah
and now lovers...love...yeah... yeah..
Just for tonight, one night...love you... yeah
And tomorrow say goodbye
Tomorrow say goodbye... (Repeat 2x)

Oh, my head lay back on the seating
Been so tired, throw away my surrounding
Like the sun and moon take for granted
Soon we move through the flood and we fade away

Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be ok

Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay

Oh, I lay myself at your feet laughing
Hope mine eye made of the soul choir

Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay

Lie about it,
Cry about it,
Soon fade away

Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be okay

Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay

I'll walk halfway around the world
Just to sit down by your side
And I would do most anything, girl
To be the apple of your eye
Well troubles, they may come and go
But good times, they're the gold
And if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go

Any place you wanna go
Know I'll be next to you
If it's treasure, baby, you're looking for
I'll search the whole world through
I know troubles, they may come and go
But good times, they're the gold
So if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go

When the storm comes down you shelter me
When I don't say a word and you know exactly what i mean
In the darkest times, oh, you shine on me
You set me free and keep me steady as we go

So if your heart wrings dry, my love
I will fill your cup
And if your load gets heavy, girl
I will lift you up
Well troubles, they may come and go
But good times be the gold
So if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go


-- Dave ad lib --

Shine, shine, shine
shine on me

Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love

Here you go, you dirty girl
Good God, try to love try to, oh
God's love is alive inside you
You know who needs you

I wanna be your hunger
I wanna see you open wide
And then I could go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

It's my aim to kill you
My aim's to love you

You and I are such a pretty thing
Smile, smile, you know you thrill me
Cross your heart and hope to die
You know I'd love to

I wanna be your hunger
I wanna see you open wide
And when I go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

You and I, oh, oh
Shine, shine

Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love

You come just like an answered prayer
Praise God, try to love try to, oh
I have a little death's delight
Oh, oh, I love you

I wanna be you hungry
I wanna see you open wide
And when I go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

You, you, hey you
You, you, ohh
You, you, ohh

If I go
Before I'm old,
Oh, brother of mine,
Please don't forget me if I go.

Bartender, please,
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus
That set him free after three days in the ground.

Oh, and if I die
Before my time,
Oh, sweet sister of mine,
Please don't regret me if I die.

Bartender, please,
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus
That set him free after three days in the ground.

Bartender, please,
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus
That set him free after three days in the ground.

I'm on bended knees,
I pray, Bartender please.

When I was young,
I didn't think about it;
Now I can't get it out of my mind.

I'm on bended knees,
Father, please.

Oh, and if all this gold
Should steal my soul away,
Oh, dear mother of mine,
Please redirect me if this gold...

Bartender, you see,
The wine that's drinking me
Came from the vine that strung Judas
From the Devil's tree,
His roots deep, deep in the ground.

Bartender, you see,
The wine that's drinking me
Came from the vine that strung Judas
From the Devil's tree,
It's roots deep, deep in the ground, ground.

I'm on bended knees,
Oh, Bartender, please.

I'm on bended knees,
Father, please.

When I was young,
I didn't think about it;
Now I just want to run and hide.

I'm on bended knees, oh, Bartender, please,
Bartender, please...

Sitting still as stone watching - watching
People walking by you wondering why
No one ever stops to talk or thinks about it ? if they ever did
What if God shuffled by?

One day we might see
Doing not a thing
Breathing just to breathe
We might find some reason

But rushing around seems what's wrong with the world
Don't lose the dreams inside your head
They'll only be there til you're dead
Dream

Lying on the roof counting
The stars that fill the sky I wonder if
Someone in the heavens looking back down on me ? I'll never know
So much space to believe

Funny when you're small
The moon follows the car
There's no one but you see
Hey, the moon is chasing me

I worried if I looked away she'd be gone
Don't lose the dreams inside your head
They'll only be there til you're dead
Dream

Walking through the wood
No cares in the world
The world has come to play
She's all mine just for a day

There's not a moment to lose in the game
Don't let the troubles in your head
Steal too much time you'll soon be dead
So play

All fall down
It won't be so long now
Out of the darkness comes light like a flash
You think you can you think you can
Sometimes that is the problem
Dream little darling dream

Spinning on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb

But everyday should be a good day to die
Oh all fall down
It won't be too long now
Every fire dies
I find it hard to explain how I got here
I think I can I think I can
Then again I will falter
Dream little darling dream

Spinning on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb

Come see
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles, oh
Oh, I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while I'm in the front
My play on time is won
Oh, But the difficulty is coming here

I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I won't tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in your mind
Oh, What if they came down crushing
I used to play for all of the loneliness
that nobody notices now
Oh, I'm begging slow
I'm coming here

I´m waiting
I wanted to stay
I wanted to play,
I wanted to love you

I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way

I'm coming waltzing back and
moving into your head
Please, I wouldn't pass you by
Oh, I wouldn't take any more than (what I need)
What sort of man goes by?
I will bring water
Why won't you ever be glad?
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
Why won't you run
into the rain and play?
And let the tears splash all over you

Hello again
Seem like forever between now and then
You look the same
I mean you look different but you haven't changed

Funny to think how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Stole me away
First time I saw you, you did me that way
What should I say?
I saw you laughin' and I was afraid that I'd get in the way

I did not think I would see you again
So how have you been?
Do you remember, lose everything

Funny I think how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again

Stole me away
First time I saw you, you did me that way
What should I say?
Saw you there dancin' but I was afraid I might get in the way

I did not think I would see you again

Funny to think how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Funny the feeling (we're falling for this)
Stole me away
First time I saw you, you did me that way
What should I say?
I saw you there dancin', well I was afraid I might get in the way

Never thought I would see you again
How have you been?
(Been) watchin' the years as they trickle away

It's everything, how time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Steal me away

It's like the first time I saw you, you do me that way
What should I say?
See you here standin', and I am afraid I might get in the way

I never thought I would see you again
How have you been?
Do you remember I mean everything?

You steal me away
Like the first time I saw you, you do me that way
What can I say?
That's you here standin', well I am afraid I might get in your way.

Last night no way
I was gonna be left hungry
Then your dady caught me sneaking out your bed
It's just a game I play
Its just a roll that way
These things sweet baby,
Are messing with your head

I'm a smooth rider baby
You know I just keep moving on
Don't know why I like to carry on
The way i do
It's just that I'm in love with you

If you see me out there runnin'
And you hear the sheriffs comin'
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're runnin for me
You KNOW my love won't let them keep me away

I'm a smooth rider baby
You know I just keep movin' on
Don't know why I like to carry on
The way I do
It's just that I'm in love with you

If you see me out there runnin'
And you hear the sheriffs comin'
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're runnin for me
You KNOW my love won't let them keep me away

I'm a smooth rider baby

Hey little dreamer's eyes open and staring up at me
Oh little lonely eyes open and radiant

Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come I'll take your soul
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come and I won't go

Darlin' dreamin in the night
Shadows on the windows
Lead oh and everyone go
Well leave me on the night
I will give you lightning
I will not relinquish light

Oh little dreamer eyes open and raving here

Wait until I come and see you little girl
When we come I'll leave with you too
When we come I'll let you come low

Hey we'll leave it all behind
Oh and then the nightmares
I'll fill them in good time
Oh they will seat your mind
When the light hits
And you maybe'll ask me

Why do you run around here
Why do you come inside of me
Why does it rip me out in dream
Why then why then watch this little fuck

Going away

Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely love

Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely love

Halloween
Carry on
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all

And in this dream
Tell us are you satisfied with fucking

Don't walk away
Don't walk away
Don't walk away

I would dig a hole all the way to China
Unless of course I was there
then I'd dig my way home
If by diggin' I could steal
the wind from the sails
of the greedy men who ruled the world

Still you're my best friend
And after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin', I was Dreamin'
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

I was feelin' like a creep
As I watched you asleep
Face down in the grass,
in the park, in the middle
of a hot afternoon
Your top was untied
And I thought how nice
It'd be to follow the sweat down your spine

You're like my best friend
Aww after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin', I was Dreamin'
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

Caught by a wave
my back to the ocean
it knocks me off my feet and
just as I find my footing
here you come again
Dreamgirl, aww Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

(Scat….trails off)

*Deep in, Deep in
Deep in, Deep in
Deep in

Crazy how it feels tonight
Crazy how you make it all alright love
Crush me with the things you do
And I do for you anything too
Sitting smoking feeling high
And in this moment it feels so right

Lovely lady
I am at your feet
God I want you so badly
And I wonder this
Could tomorrow be
So wondrous as you there sleeping
Let's go drive 'till morning comes
And watch the sunrise and fill our souls up
Drink some wine 'till we get drunk

It's crazy I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
And is this real or am I dreaming

Lovely lady
Let me drink you please
Won't spill a drop, no, I promise you
Lying under this spell you cast on me
Each moment
The more I love you
Crush me
Come on, oh yeah

It's crazy I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
Is this real or am I dreaming

Lovely lady
I will treat you sweetly
Adore you I mean you crush me
And it's times like these
When my faith I feel
And I know how I love you
Come on, Come on
Baby

It's crazy I'm thinking
just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
To each other we'll be facing
My love
By love
We'll beat back the pain we've found
You know
I mean to tell you all the things I've been thinking deep inside
My friend
Each moment the more I love you

Crush me
Come on
Baby
So much you have given love
That I would give you back again and again
Oh my love
Meaning I'll hold you
But please please let me always

I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my Heaven is a nice house in the sky
Got central heating,and I'm alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't see the light
Keep it locked up inside
Don't talk about it
T-t-talk about the weather

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't see the light
Open up my head and let me out, little baby
'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time

I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my Heaven is a nice house in the sky
Got central heating and I'm alright
'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time
Time, time, time, time, time, time

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else

I see you young and soft, oh little baby
Little feet, little hands, little feet, little feet, little baby
One year of cryin' and the words creep up inside
Creep into your mind, yeah

So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say

'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time
Time, time, time, time, time, time

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else

So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say

Open up my head and let me out, little baby

Straight in. suck up and go,
cool it, swallow, swallow
Breathe deep, take it all
it comes cheap
Push it through the doors
because in between the lines
I'm gonna pack more lines
so I can get in

Ooh traffic jam got more cars
than a beach got sand
Suck it up suck it up suck it up
fill it up until no more
I'm no crazy creep, I've got it coming
to me because I'm not satisfied
The hunger keeps on growing

I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much

I've got to get it somewhere
I mean, you never know, maybe
you're dreaming
Who do you think you're watching
Who do you think you need
Play for me, play more.
ten times in the same day
I need more. I'm going
over my borders
I'm going to take more, more
from you, letter by letter

I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much

I told God I'm coming
to your country
I'm going to eat up your cities.
your homes, you know
I've got a stomach full it's not

I've got this growl in my tummy
and I'm gonna stop it today
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much

Suck it up...

two young boys lyin' dead by the side of the road
shame, shame
oh, it's a shame to lose your way running wild
it's a shame to lose the light that shines (shame, shame)
it's a shame to lose your way as a child
it's a shame to lose your ...

no empty pocket gonna keep you from gettin yours
no judge or jury ever gonna hear their story told

(Dave talking in Bayou)

Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm seeking
I take a taste of what's below
Come away to something better
What I want is what I've not got
But what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say...

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel called... mommy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Sometimes a Jimi Thing slides my way and keeps me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
And I sure don't care if you do or don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Yes, God knows, sometimes I take a bus there
Shouldn't care I shouldn't care bereaved as I'm feeling

The day is gone I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
I take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind make me feel
Better for a small time
What I want is what I've not got
And what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say...

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel called... mommy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Sometimes I think a Jimi Thing just keep me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
And I sure don't care if you do or don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Yes, God knows, sometimes I take a bus there
Shouldn't care I shouldn't care bereaved as I'm feeling

(instrumental solo)

Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm looking for cooking for
So I take a taste of what's below
Come away...

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel called Jimi...
If you could keep me floating just for a while
Well I'll get back to you

Sometimes I think a Jimi Thing just keep me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
And I sure don't care if you do or don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Yes, God knows, sometimes I take a bus there
Shouldn't care I shouldn't care bereaved as I'm feeling
