Promise of you It sleeps in the air The air that I breathe And I know that it's true Don't have to convince myself to believe What secrets sleep in the heart of a man So much love wasted Slip right through my hands See it in the eyes of the lonely As they make their weary way Shimmer in the eyes of longing I hear it say Promise of you It sleeps in the air The air that I breathe And I know that it's true Don't have to convince myself to believe To believe... What secrets sleep in the heart of the night Dreams of salvation Slipping out of sight In the shimmering moments of twilight Closing up the shine Whisper on the wind of a rescue Savior in time Promise of you It sleeps in the air The air that I breathe And I know that it's true Don't have to convince myself to believe All this time I've been fighting my own private war All this time You were the peace I was looking for Chorus
Wendy's sittin' next to me She's trying hard to drink it away And I feel the rumble of the subway Beneath the stage And her eyes are screaming And her lips are pursed And this ain't her first heartache But it feels like, it feels like the worst And she says Can someone tell me how this can happen And I guess that God only knows My heart used to be The sweet shop of love But now the sign on the door It says sorry we're closed And I hear myself tell her Some old words I know they won't help And then I feel guilty 'Cause I closed some sweet shops myself And we all talk about timing And lifestyles and such But to a heart that's been shattered Those words don't mean that much And all of our pining It just goes to show Don't you enter a shop With the sign on the door Saying sorry we're closed And she's been through all the pain That one can endure And her new man thinks she loves him But he can't be sure And his heart pines for Wendy She says that's how it goes How am I supposed to know He can't read the sign saying Sorry we're closed Yeah we're closed And she says Can someone tell me how this can happen And I guess that God only knows My heart used to be The sweet shop of love But there's a sign on the door There's a sign on the door There's a sign on the door There's a sign on the door One more sign…
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful Stop me and steal my breath Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky Never revealing their depth Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
*I'll be your cryin' shoulder I'll be love suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof As we lie awake in my bed You're my survival, you're my living proof My love is alive and not dead Tell me that we belong together Dress it up in the trappings of love I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead Tuned in, turned on, remembered the thing you said
Rolled in last night to the dawn, the porch, and both our floodlights no excuse but we were having such a good time why, oh why can't i just walk the straight and narrow so ashamed bLl do it all again tomorrow maybe you're the only one that sees anything good about me anything good about me i found a friend to get the number just to call you line was jammed i trie Tried, but could not get through all these calls to warn you of my scoundrel heart but these walls and still they can't keep us apart
chorus and i promise to take care and love you You promise to keep seeing anything good about me . and i swear sometimes there's asphalt running through my veins and let me go and never ever pull my reins and i'll return with cuts Ruises scarred but smarter lick my wounds and try again but twice as hard
Perfumed and smoky She swears that she knows me She's falling down drunk again I say she's mistaken She's visibly shaken Emotions all drowned in gin She said I used to be beautiful But now it's all gone I let my dreams slip away from me That's where it went wrong
Go be young, go be free Follow your heart where it leads you Don't end up like me
The Indian in the guardhouse used to spin me yarns Stories of canyons and Boston in winter And losing his family's farms He said I've outlived my three sons, they died in three wars I laughed and I cried while they lived and they died And I know that they deserve more
Chorus
Perfumed and smoky She swears that she knows me I'm falling down drunk again I say she's mistaken She's visibly shaken Emotions all drowned in gin Isay I used to be powerful But now it's all gone I let my dreams take control of me That's where it went wrong
Prayer To St. Peter Give them couches where the angels sleep And light those fires Let them wake whole again To brand new dawns Fired by the sun Not war-times bloody guns May their peace be deep Remember where the broken bodies lie God knows how young they were To have to die Give them things they like Let them make some noise Give dance hall bands not golden harps To these our boys Let them love Peter For they've had no time They should have bird songs and trees And hills to climb The taste of summer And a ripened pear And girls sweet as meadow wind And flowing hair And tell them how they are missed But say not to fear It's gonna be all right With us down here
Lying here with you Listening to the rain Smiling just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive These are the moments I'll remember all my life I found all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Looking in your eyes Seeing all I need Everything you are is everything to me These are the moments I know heaven must exist These are the moments I know all I need is this I have all I've waited for And I could not ask for more
* I could not ask for more than this time together I could not ask for more than this time with you Every prayer has been answered Every dream I have's come true And right here in this moment is right where I'm meant to be Here with you here with me
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive These are the moments I'll remember all my life I've got all I've waited for And I could not ask for more
*Repeat
I could not ask for more than the love you give me 'Coz it's all I've waited for And I could not ask for more I could not ask for more
Ghost on the street today Doorways of Jackson Square In tinsel and tap shoes Mardi Gras beads in her hair Down to the graveyard She wrung out her hands As if he will meet her All day she stands
Chorus: So don't leave me And I know you're justified So don't leave me Cause a part of you in me died
We wish ourselves beautiful We cry in the night And it's not the love you feared But the fall from the height My personal ledges Afraid to look down My crepe paper bridges Enough water to drown
Chorus
And I see the lonely souls Searchin' But before the heartbreak rose Draw the curtain I'm a ghost on the streets today Surrounded by eyes I feel them peer through me And my harlequin disguise If it makes you feel better Come join me awhile Cause love in my open arms There's love in my spirit's smile
She's a Blue Ridge cradle She's a mother to some And home to the laughter Of road weary ones So we'll sing all the old songs Sing to grandmama road And we'll sing cause we miss her And we're sad she had to go If I could see off this mountain Through the clouds in my eyes I would see off this mountain On the nights stars fell And see off this mountain Through the tears in my eyes I would see off this mountain And the stars fell from the skies In the air I hear a fiddle Down along Hickory Way And the mandolin guitar Like we used to play And down on Dunn's rock Brothers boasting a dare We tell them they're crazy And pretend we don't care If I could see off this mountain Through the clouds in my eyes I would see off this mountain On the nights stars fell And see off this mountain Through the tears in my eyes I would see off this mountain And the stars fell from the skies The air tastes like moonshine In the wind a carnival tune It soars with our laughter But we'll all leave too soon So I raise a toast to family Put thanks in my glass In the arms of your loved ones It's the only home that lasts If I could see off this mountain Through the clouds in my eyes I would see off this mountain On the night the stars fell And see off this mountain Through the tears in my eyes I could see off this mountain When the stars fell from the skies When the stars fell from the skies Going up to grandmama road Going up to grandmama road I'm happy as can be 'Cause can't you see I'm going up to grandmama road…
Another beautiful morning under stars and bars And F series pickups and rusted out cars And they're eating breakfast at the strip bar Just to have a peek…
And the beer soaked angels spread their wings And dream of twenties and diamonds and things And somehow that might ease the sting Of the company they keep Yeah…
And the vets still talk about the tet offensive And the freshmen boys all look so pensive Because living large is so expensive Hope daddy fueled the jet…
And we'll all fly out to the Hard Rock casino And we'll put on our neatly pressed and fine chinos And we'll laugh at the guy in the El Camino Is that the only car he could get?
It's a beautiful life It's just as advertised It's all for one low price Just read the fine print, and you'll be content With your beautiful life
And record smoothies say 'What a sound' You're the greatest thing we've found But you're gonna have to lose a few pounds We're gonna put you on TV And don't think our place is so swank Don't worry about that guy, he's high on crank That's exactly why his last record tanked And let that be a lesson to me
It's a beautiful life It's just as advertised It's all for one low price Just read the fine print, and you'll be content With your beautiful life
And all our churches glow Communion wafers trash TV shows Say 'Hey, at least you don't have this strife' 'Cause you'll be warm and safe In your beautiful life Yeah…
And it's hard to tell what's true compassion When it's dressed up in hair and nails and fashion And the tabloids all rush to cash in on what we should believe
And I hope I never see the day When there's nothing left on the planet left to save And oxygen is the designer crusade As we all fight to breathe…
It's a beautiful life It's just as advertised It's all for one low price Just read the fine print, and you'll be content With your beautiful life Yeah....
One little gutter town 3:00 in the morning I whispered these words I believed Said leave me alone girl I'm so tied down and broken It's too late it's too late to save me Ain't no wish in this world slight of this moment No dream I could dream that comes near No heaven or hope that comes near No wish in this world except you right here It's cold and it's dark and I'm sure it makes you crazy Runnin' to grass so green Dangerous road but it's not going to change me Paved with 10 million broken dreams
Chorus Sometimes I feel it's the end of the ride Like distant water the well keeps running dry
It's 3:00 A.M. I'm awake and my heart is still dreaming It's 3:00 A.M. Outside I hear the souls still screaming It's been so long you know since my head's been this clear Just like a ship lost in the night I just don't know which way I should steer
But I'll keep chasing my dreams And only you can make them real I pour my heart out every night But do you know the way that I feel
Sometimes this is work And don't you know sometimes this is play Sometimes you are listening to me And sometimes you don't hear a damn word that I say Sometimes there's a girl Sometimes I go home alone And I guess it's no wonder right now That I do very well on my own
But I'll keep chasing my dreams And only you can make them real I pour my heart out every night But do you know the way that I feel
And I will play just as long as you will listen Now I'm in no big hurry to get back on the road Sometimes in this lifestyle I feel like there's so much that I'm missing Well I'm missing you It's just that I'm ... so far from home
It's 3:00 A.M. I'm awake and my heart is still dreaming It's 3:00 A.M. Outside I hear the souls still screaming
Thirty Pieces of silver screen Deep inside our souls How did we betray our imagination Watching our futures unfold Without a whisper for fear of intrusion We have to see how this part ends Time out for commericals Time out to be good friends But our generation's angry We're so scared that we can't see The answer right inside of us If we can find the place in our hearts where we're all free
Does it see that time works against us Or does it just march on and on and on Sometimes it drives me crazy Proving Nostradamus wrong, so wrong But we still have secret silos with buttons, codes and keys We can avert this awful disaster If we find the place in our hearts where we're all free
And what a tall order Far be it for me to say Maybe I'll try a little harder Starting Here Today Or just throw in the towel Laydown five up the ghost And join all the cynics Luckier than most. Maybe I'll check out with a bullet Would you think less of me Or would it frighten you enough Would it rattle you enough Would it frighten you enough to ... Find the place in our hearts where we're all free
Sitting in the kitchen, Just staring at the cracks in the wall I've been sitting here since yesterday Just waiting on you to call The cracks remind me of you and I They're all up, down and split apart And all the cracks in the wall lead to one great big hole That used to be my heart
Now that I think of it Nothing ever worked out right All we ever seemed to do is just cuss, scream, bitch and fight All we did was fight
The tears I cried Fell on a cold and lonely floor No one to wipe them away The tears I cried Will be my own and they'll follow me And that's the way it's gonna stay
Now that I think of it Nothing ever worked out right All we ever seemed to do is just cuss, scream, bitch and fight All we did was fight
Oh pretty baby, can't you understand I'm not made up of enough to be your man Oh pretty baby, don't know what to say I just want you to ... go away
Well I'd love to sit and reflect on this But I haven't got the time Just tell me why you chose to be so cruel, mean, brutal so unkind
Now that I think of it Nothing ever worked out right All we ever seemed to do was cuss, scream, bitch and fight All we did is fight
The tears I cried fell on a cold and lonely floor No one to wipe them away The tears I cried Will be my own and they'll follow me And that's the way it's gonna stay
Well i don't drive a fast car You know it just ain't my style And i don't give a damn about that You know it ain't worth my while And i've been known to run around Burned some bridges in my time You know those girls tried to tie me down But my heart is still all mine
Well elvis had his blue suede shoes and samson had his hair You know i got my music baby And my dreams will take me there You know i don't smoke cigarettes i don't see the point And if you're gonna put smoke in your lungs Might as well smoke a joint
Well i don't mind if you hang around Just don't start talking that love talk baby Don't bring me down
Well don't call me a scoundrel Baby don't call me a thief Don't look down your nose at me I don't need all your grief Join me and the jesters, singing for today Live life at its fullest Before it slips away
Well i don't mind if you hang around Just don't start talking that love talk baby Don't bring me down
Why you want to shoot me down I'm just trying to be your friend now baby But you lock the door, hide the key, hide under the bed You're gonna hide from me Come on baby, let me in ...
Sweet love is keeping a very close score She's cheated death more than one time The tears roll down her face and on to the floor The psychic's been reading her mind
Women with secrets men with their rage The lines run deeper than words on the page Breeze through the window, it turns bitter chill Pretend we don't feel it, lie here real still
Whispered in visions of new earth shine We volunteer to do nothing again The world falls around us all we can do is whine Living out the future of original sin
Women with secrets men with their rage The lines run deeper than actors on the stage Breeze through the mountains turns bitter chill Pretend we don't feel it, lie here real still
Well now follow me to the water Dive right through the film Swim in the madness, fulfill every whim Why worry about tomorrow that you'll never see Why talk about the children that will never be
Give us this day our daily bread Forgive us our monstrosities No more stories of the Quick and the Dead The asphalt will burn with our liabilities
Hey boy pushin' on your girlfriend Trying to show her all the pain you feel inside Yeah and head all scrambled and the love is gone And you don't know what went wrong But I think I heard you hissing something about blue steel
But when you talk about something like gun play Let me tell you it's a losing bet But when the hammer falls all bets are called And five to one you're gonna lose When you talk about something like Russian Roulette
Tears run down your sweet love's face I say she's a mirror of your insides And you can't scream loud enough to let it go And you mouthful of pride you just can't swallow Rips your soul like a hurricane tide
But when you talk about something like gun play Let me tell you it's a losing bet But when the hammer falls all bets are called And five to one you're gonna lose When you talk about something like Russian Roulette
Pack up your ego and your tantrum Put it back with your anger and your pride Beating up on your girlfriend Ain't gonna change anything inside
But when you talk about something like gun play Let me tell you it's a losing bet But when the hammer falls all bets are called And five to one you're gonna lose When you talk about something like Russian Roulette
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful Stop me and steal my breath Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky Never revealing their depth Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
[Chorus:] I'll be your crying shoulder I'll be love suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof As we lie awake in my bed You're my survival, you're my living proof My love is alive not dead Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above
[Repeat Chorus]
I've been dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead Tuned in, turned on, Remembered the things that you said
여행 가기 전 예약해놨던곳이 비비킹라이브 클럽이랑 레스 폴라이브 클럽이었는데 처음 갔던 곳이 비비 킹 라이브 클럽이었다.
찾기가 의외로 쉬웠음. 브로드웨이와 타임스퀘어쪽. 그니까 맨하탄에서도 관광객이 제일 많은 곳에 있었다.
하루에도 백만명이 다녀간다고 함.
