Polaroids
S. Colvin Please no more therapy Mother take care of me Piece me together with a Needle and thread Wrap me in eiderdown Lace from your wedding gown Fold me and lay me down On your bed Or liken me to a shoe Blackened and spit-shined through Kicking back home to you Smiling back home Singing back home to you Laughing back home to you Dragging back home to you I was so wary then The ugly American Thinner than oxygen Tough as a whore I said you can lie to me I own what's inside of me And nothing surprises me anymore But forests in Germany Kids in the Tuileries Broken-down fortresses In old Italy And claiming his victory Shrouded in mystery He went running away with me Back in our home New York Walking these streets forlorn We all in our uniforms Black and black Doing that slouch and jive The artist must survive We've got all we need we cried And we don't look back Thinking we had it made Poised for the hit parade Knee deep in accolades The conceptual pair But ever the malcontent He left without incident Vanished into thin air Now I am always amazed Words can fill up a page Pages fill up the days Between him and me But the vows that we never keep From bedrooms to business-speak Make me remember how cheap Words can be And the letters I wrote you of Were those of the desperate stuff Like begging for love in a suicide threat But I am too young to die Too old for a lullaby Too tired for life on the ledge But I had a dream last night Of lovers who walked the plank Out on the edge of time Amidst ridicule They laughed as they rocked and reeled Over the mining fields Coming to rest on this ship of fools But he just took polaroids Of her smile in the light Of the dawn of the menacing sky And before they went overboard She turned and held up a card And it said Valentine |

from Serendipity (세렌디피티) [omnibus, ost] (2002)
When you know that you know
Who you love You can't deny it *Go back or give up or pretend that you don't buy it When it's clear this time you've found the one You never let him go Cause you know, and you know that you know When you feel, when your skin , In your bones and the hollow of your heart, There's no way you can wait til tommorrow When there isn't any doubt about it, Once you've come this close, Cause you know, and you know that you know You can feel love's around you Like the sky 'round the moon This is how love has found you Now you know what to do When you know that you know Who you need You can't deny it *repeat And it's time you come in from the cold And you know that you know |

from It Could Happen To You (당신에게 일어날 수 있는 일) by Carter Burwell [ost] (1993)
Here we go again
Another round of blues Several miles ago I set down my angel shoes On a lost highway For a better view Now in my mind's eye All roads lead to you Chorus: So wherever you go You better take care of me This time If you're gonna go Remember me and all This time We had our bitter cheer And sweet sorrow We lost a lot today We get it back tomorrow I hear the sound of wheels I know the rainbow's end I see lights in a fat city I feel love again Chorus All this time I been makin' deals Shades if black and white On a Hollywood reel All this time I been missing Something so real All this time I been a face in the crowd Now I'm living in color And laughing out loud All these names For just foolin' around It's a new breakthrough It's an old break down We smoked a lot of hope We did our cryin' , too We're finally waking up To what real love can do Down a lost highway Under the twilight moon A chorus in your eyes Another round of blues Chorus We had all This time We had all This time |

C'mon pack your bags Clear the floor. Let's step out through the open door. Leave a note that says goodbye. Build a new house Down by the sea. Get to the place we were meant to be. You'll know it when you smile. Up at the window. Search in the sky. Looking for the rainbow, And don't ask my. I wanna see the rainbow come. Hey! We'll be leaving on all sides, ohohh! Whe the rainbow comes. Mr. Postman look and see If there's a message in your bag for me. Could be a bomb or it could bve a letter. It don't matter it can only get better. Mr. Postman look and see If there's a message in your bag for me. You know it's been such a long long time Since I could laugh at this world of mine. Slippin' slidin' around in your head. It's be-bop-a-lula then baby you're dead. So c'mon make a bright new day. I need a prayer here. Need a blessing. Case an eye back as you run. Turn around boy! See the rainbow come. Hey! You'll be leaving on all sides When the rainbow comes. See the world from all sides When the rainbow comes. |

Oh, my soul Sometimes we don't know what to do We work so hard Being tough on our own But now it's me and you Let's give it up Sad bones 'Cause we all fall on hard times But you don't have to stand up all alone Just put your hand in mine Climb on A back that's strong Hey hey You can git' what you want Climb on A back that's strong If you could save me A place in heaven With a clean well-lighted room I'll muscle up to Armageddon And I'll wave to you darlin' Be home soon And if you could show me The story of love I would write it Again and again And then you could be The woman you need If you just let me be The man that I am Oh, I don't know Sometimes we try too hard to see But we got one down now One more to go That's when you say To me |

Off ion the distance
A cool wind is blowing I'm not who I was And I'm not where I'm going I'm so tired of knowing That there's no way of knowing You left me stranded Between two worlds You turned me into a mixed up girl You left me stranded between two worlds Two worlds Is it nicer where you are? Do you ever think of me? Is it easier now That you don't have to love me? Like a fool I allowed you To coddle and drug me And the you left me stranded Between two worlds You turned me into a mixed up girl You left me stranded between two worlds Two worlds A weak shadow of death Across a bowl of bitter milk I borrowed symbols On my funeral silk Reflections of you In each fall's drooling rain And still you stay with me Like a knife in my brain You left me stranded Between two worlds You turned me into a mixed up girl You left me stranded between two worlds Two worlds Two worlds |

Today I took a walk up the street
And picked a flower and climbed the hill Above the lake And secret thoughts were said aloud We watched the faces in the clouds Until the clouds had blown away And were we ever somewhere else You know, it's hard to say And I never saw blue like that before Across the sky Around the world You've given me all you have and more And no one else has ever shown me how To see the world the way I see it now Oh, I, I never saw blue like that I can't believe a month ago I was alone, I didn't know you I hadn't seen or heard you're name And even now, I'm so amazed It's like a dream, It's like a rainbow, it's like the rain And somethings are the way they are And words just can't explain Cause I never saw blue like that before Across the sky Around the world You've given me all you have and more And no one else has ever shown me how To see the world the way I see it now Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before And it feels like now, And it feels always, And it feels like coming home I never saw blue like that before Across the sky Around the world You've given me all you have and more And no one else has ever shown me how To see the world the way I see it now Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before Oh, I, I never saw blue like that |

Four blocks up and two streets down,
I went back to my old hometown Like a kid I ran and hid on cue That’s when times were really sad Winter there was really bad And we all just froze but for a chosen few Did you ever see someone you knew Holding fast and staying strong and true And they were nothing like you? Truth to tell and time to burn I hit the wall at every turn The ceiling cracked in half and I just flew Poetry is what I heard I was hanging onto every word I was a lover for the world to woo I have seen the top of Mt. Ventoux I have seen a miracle or two And they’re N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U You’ve been waiting for awhile I can tell Off my head and on the fence Maybe there’s no accidents Anyway I’d say I have come to So fool me once that might be fun Fool me twice well that’s been done You can fool me everyday I won’t say boo I believe I have pulled a major coup I believe I have boarded up the zoo I believe I have dropped the other shoe And there’s N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U |

All the happy couples on their way to New Orleans
Reminding me of when we got along They're only renting time and space to fill up with their dreams And dreams are what they'll have when they have gone How could it be that I was born without a clue to carry on And still it is the same now I am older Armed with just a will and then this love for singing songs And minding less and less if I am colder But I have this funny ache and it's burning in my chest And it spreads just like a fire inside my body Is it something God left out in my spirit or my flesh Would I be saved if I were brave and had a baby It was never clear what would come but that's the risk and that's the test And you were the only one so far to follow And no one talks about when one might stop and need to rest Or how long you sit alone before you stop looking back It's like you're waiting for Godot And then you pick your sorry ass up off the street and Go... And what the hell is this? Who made this bloody mess? And someone always answers like a martyr Is it something you should know, did you never do your best Would you be saved if you were brave and just tried harder So now I ride the ought one thirtyfive to New Orleans I float a mile above life's toil and trouble A thousand lonely lifetimes I still wait and then go on A clown to entertain the happy couples |

Down at the train they go to Independence everyday
But anywhere else now seems like a million miles away And I must have been high to believe that I would ever leave Now I'm just a flat fine line like the Wichita skyline I rode on the airstream across the great lonesome afternoon I wished hard enough to hurt, drove fast enough to catch the moon But I must have been dreaming again 'cause there's nothing around the bend Except for that flat fine line, the Wichita skyline As far as Salina I can get that good station from LaRue I'm searching the dial while I'm scanning the sky for a patch of blue And I watch the black clouds roll in chasing me back again Back to the flat fine line, the Wichita skyline S.C. - acoustic guitar, vocal John Leventhal - guitars, bass, keyboards, percussion, string arrangement Shawn Pelton - drums Sandra Park - violin Carol Webb - violin Robert Rinehart - viola Eugene Moye - cello 1996 AGF Music Ltd./Scred Songs, admin. by WB Music Corp.

Wait for me by the banshee tree
Let me be your wailing companion Pass 'em on by don't look 'em in the eye Suicide Alley is callin' You thought you were dreaming You could wake up dead And you'll never know what's real All this damage is runnin' loose in your head And it really matters to me Oh no baby don't go Walkin' down Suicide Alley Downtown baby it's a million to one You might as well name your poison And stand in line by the exit sign Suicide Alley is waiting You're a loose cannonball on a sinking ship From the belly of the beast, shot from the hip But you don't have to be going down the dark hall You're not tied to the chair, you're not nailed to the wall Oh, no, baby don't go Walkin' down Suicide Alley Sitting naked by the window in the middle of the night I can see you wearing your halo If only in the daybreak of the dirty street light I know baby wasn't born to follow You know I wasn't born I was spat out at a wall And nobody even knew my name The sun hatched me out, cradle and all On the corner of First and Insane For the souls of the departed and the renegades of love You and me we gotta be all we dreamed of In the ruins of mischief through the ravages of time You got a place in this world of mine Oh, no, baby don't go Walkin' down Suicide Alley |

This is your new thing now
Naked as a rose Everything exposed But not quite This is your new thing now Cards out on the table A genius with no label But not quite, not quite God, I swear it's good to be back home Waiting for the newest Rolling Stone All the other girls are still at war The best and worst of 1994 Sometimes I see the half and not the whole Sometimes I see the face and not the soul Sometimes I think this place has no part For anyone who ever had a heart This is your new thing now And it looks so good in print Just a poet and her pimps But not quite This is your new thing now A prom dress and a sneer The woman of the year But not quite, not quite Gee, it's good to see a dream come true People smile and bless all over you Mixing up those latest junkie-isms With all the pretty terms of religion And don't you love the leader of the band Equal parts Butthead and Peter Pan All the other kids are sad again A legend's not a legend 'til it ends This is your new thing now And it makes the whole world spin It's as least as old as sin But not quite This is your new thing now And now you're turning grinning But maybe no one's listening And you might lose it all my darling, yes you might This is your new thing now And it feels so good to doubt you I could almost live without you But not quite S.C. - acoustic guitar, vocal John Leventhal - keyboards, electric guitar, bass 1996 AGF Music Ltd./Scred Songs, admin. by WB Music Corp.

Listen to the wind blow
Watch the sun rise Run in the shadows Damn your love Damn your lies And if You don't love me now You will never love me again I can still hear you saying You would never break the chain Listen to the wind blow Down comes the night Run in the shadows Damn your love Damn your lies Break the silence Damn the dark Damn the light And if You don't love me now You will never love me again I can still hear you saying You would never break the chain |

from Providence by Joey Newman [ost] (2005)
There are places I remember all my life
Though some have changed Some forever, not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places have their moments With lovers and friends, I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life, I?ve loved them all But of all these friends and lovers There is no one, compares with you And these memories lose their meaning When I think of love as something new Though I know I?ll never lose those affection For people and things that went before I know I?ll often stop and think about them In my life, I love you more Though I know I?ll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I?ll often stop and think about them In my life, I love you more In my life, I love you more |

Sunny came home
To her favorite room Sunny sat down in the kitchen She opened a book And a box of tools Sunny came home with a mission She says days go by I'm hypnotized I'm walking on a wire I close my eyes And fly out of my mind into the fire Sunny came home with a list of names She didn't believe in transcendence It's time for a few Small repairs she said Sunny came home with a vengeance She says days go by I don't know why I'm walking on a wire I close my eyes And fly out of my mind into the fire Get the kids and bring a sweater Dry is good and wind is better Count the years, You always knew it Strike a matct, Go on and do it Days go by I'm hypnotized I'm walking on a wire Iclose my eyes And fly out of my mind into the fire Light the sky and hold on tight The world is burning down She's oyt there on her own And she's alright Sunny came home Sunny came home... >Sunny라는 이름의 헤로인이 어떤 가정적 불화로 인해 속박 되어 사는 누군가 ( '나'로 표현된 화자 )를 도와 마침내는 집을 모두 태워 버리도록 이끔으로써, 과거를 청산하도록 도와주는 것으로 해석할 수 있다. |

I've been searching for a long time someone exactly like you I've been travelling all around the world Waiting you to come through. Someone like you makes it All worth while Someone like you keeps Me satisfied. Someone exactly Like you. I've been travellin' a hard road Lookin' for someone exactly like you I've been carryin' my heavy load Waiting for the light to come Shining through. Someone like you makes it All worth while Someone like you keeps Me satisfied. Someone exactly Like you. I've been doin' some soul searching To find out where you're at I've been up and down the highway In all kinds of foreign lands Someone like you makes it All worth while Someone like you keeps Me satisfied. I've been all around the world Marching to the beat of a different Drum. But my lately I have Realized The best is yet to come.

China gets broken
And it will never be the same Boats on the ocean Find their way back again I am weaving like a drunkard Like a balloon up in the air I am needing a puncture and someone To point me somewhere I'm gonna keep my head on straight I just hope it's not too late Open up the gate I go straight on, steady on Steady on! I was feeling imploded A wooden smile, a wooden heart Then things exploded Like rockets in the dark Now I'm pulling out splinters And off to hibernate somewhere For the nuclear winter Of another love affair 'Cause he seemed like a miracle I ate it up like cereal But it was something like shrapnel Steady on! It's like ten miles of two-lane On a South Dakota wheat plain In the middle of a hard rain A slow boat or a fast train I'm gonna keep my head on straight I'm gonna keep my head on straight I'm gonna keep my head on straight Steady on |

As a little girl I came down to the water
With a little stone in my hand It would shimmer and sing And we knew everything As a little girl I came down But in a little while I got steeped in authority Heaven only knows what went wrong There is nothing so cruel than to bury that jewel When it was mine all along I'm gonna find it You're shining I can see you You're smiling that's enough I'm holding on to you Like a diamond in the rough Every now and then I can see that I'm getting somewhere Where I have to go is so deep I was angry back then and you know I still am I have lost too much sleep But I'm gonna find it You're shining I can see you You're smiling that's enough I'm holding on to you Like a diamond in the rough Like a diamond in the rough In my dreams I go down by the water With a little girl in my arms And we shimmer and sing And we know everything In my dreams I go down You're shining I can see you You're smiling that's enough I'm holding on to you Like a diamond in the rough Like a diamond in the rough |

Was it really two summers ago
Or was it outer space We both had nowhere to go In search of a state of grace All in all we never had time When we met each other we stopped on a dime Floating nowhere Suspended in dreams That we were side by side We both had to see what it means Whenever two worlds collide All in all the pieces were scattered A world so small that nothing else mattered Was it really two light years past We left the atmosphere We both had to catch our breath Somewhere way down here All in all and by and by The tears for forgiveness Will hang out to dry |

Of the loving that I've missed I would wrap myself around you But how likely can that be when I feel like this And if life were not unfortunate And reason blew like summer through the trees I would stop to let you catch me But I think that you would find me on my knees And it's gonna be another long one tonight It's just me and my well-intentioned spite I said someone did this to me But no one did, there's no injustices I just can't afford to be right no more I bought myself another bad dream tonight With these little boys in my head sleeping tight It's gonna be another long one tonight There is comfort in a memory And in roses just before you cut them down There is danger in most everything That's all the better when it's not around And the last time I had the sense to notice You were right here being kind But if I think that you are with me Then I know that you can always change your mind And it's gonna be another long one tonight It's just me and my well-intentioned spite I said someone did this to me But no one did, there's no injustices I just can't afford to be right no more I bought myself another bad dream tonight With these little boys in my head sleeping tight It's gonna be another long one tonight |

The streets of my town are not
what they were They are haloed in anger, bitter and hurt And it's not so you'd notice but it's a sinister thing Like the wheels of ambition at the christening So I went out walking on the streets of the dead With a chip on my shoulder And a voice in my head It said you have been brought here Though you don't know what for Well the mystery train is coming right to your door And I hear you calling, you don't have to call so loud I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud You can run all night but we can take you where You can cry like an angel There were high school night dances When we played stump the band We were raising each other In a strange land There were hard pills to swallow But we drank 'em all down Oh the nights were too short then And now they're a little too long I hear you calling and you don't have to call so loud I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud You can run all night but we can take you where You can shout out in anger You can laugh like a fool You can cry like an angel So look homeward baby Keep your eyes on the sky They will never forgive you So don't ask them to try This is your party, I know it's not your ideal May we all find salvation In professions that heal I hear you calling, you don't have to call so loud I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud You can run all night but we can take you where You can shout out an answer You can laugh like a fool You can call up to heaven We'll be listening to you You can sing hallelujah You can fly like a bird You can cry like angel When there are no words |

Well we pounded the pavement between

Lately I could swear I'm thinking clearer and clearer And I've been working hard Looking at my punch card and my mirror, my mirror But I daydream in my room I'm baying at the moon Ricochet in time to the the music You just pick a day and I'm in a new destination I take too many planes I know too many names and I forget them I wanted to know if dreams would lie You said they would try and I said let them You just let them But I kill dreams in the chase I slap love in the face Ricochet in time to the music You just pick a day and I'm in a new destination I crawled up from the sewer For something that was truer than I intended I ended up on my knees In this big city I was befriended I transcended But I bruise my friends for more I rail at heaven's door Ricochet in time to the music You just pick a day and I'm in a new destination |

It is the dead of the night
On the dead of the night I live on a dream, it came to me When I was young I brought it here, and now for years The streets of London keep it safe and warm Every morning it dies and is reborn In the dead of the night I keep a pencil and a book I say this is how a life can look Russian roulette, French-kissed cigarette And the silence like an anvil The things that you learn, but now all that burns Is a candle And the fog melts over the night, and it softens the edges I begin to write in the dead of the night A bead of sweat runs down my arm And I drink it from my skin It is the most real thing that I feel It is communion Bless the meek Heal the sick Protect the weak In the dead of the night |

The baby dikes. The superstars, blighted ones. I went out to face them, one by one. I went out to face them. One by one. I said "Goodbye, Mary-anne!" As you turn to watch me. "Don't cry, Mary-anne. And don't try to stop me." "Cause I'm gonna go where the lights are bright; Where sacred secrets sail like kites. We've been sleepin' girl, all our lives, And we never lived, no, we just survived. And we never lived. We just survived." I'll take my heart. I'll take my key. And find out who could care for me. Are there pots of gold? Are there floods and fires? Are there thieves and beggars, Or Saints and liars? Are there thieves and beggars, Or saints and liars? And so "Goodbye, Mary-anne!" As you turn to watch me. "Don't cry, Mary-anne. And don't try to stop me." I put on my finest summer dress, So light and thin, torn at the chest. I brushed my hair, I held my breath. I went out to face the wilderness.

Song of the bird way up in the sky But the most beautiful by far Is the scream of the man who never learned to fly Even here we are. The sun shines bright it's a beautiful sight But the most beautiful by far Is the blind girl alone the angel of the night Even here we are. Beautiful flower in your garden But the most beautiful by far Is the one growing wild in the garbage dump Even here we are |

Ordinarily I
Have the decency to hold my tongue Then eventually I Wind up opening a vein Rather pointedly you Asked me if I planned to turn and run That's a certainty When I'm this close to the drain But it's so good to see you Intermittently I Have to tell myself we have no past And essentially that Wanting you is just insane There are those who say it's Customary for a man to ask In actuality I Have been known to jump the train But it's so good to see you It's a foregone conclusion It's a languid delusion And it's so good to see you |

Before you knew me
An angel came to me I wrestled him down to the ground He said he could cure me I said That don't worry me now Those angels just bore me The same old damn story They were lost oh but now they been found Ain't nobody lookin' but That don't worry me now I live by the sound Of devils in flight I travel alone In the cold In the dead of The deep dark night So if Jesus is comin' He'd better start runnin' I don't really think he'll be proud And I won't get to heaven but That don't worry me now. I live by the sound Of devils in flight I travel alone I In the cold In the dead of The deep dark night And if flocks of the best Will sing me to my rest I'll never get used to that sound Just give me Sam Cooke singin' That don't worry me now |

Smile an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me Don't ever let me find you gone 'Cuz that would bring a tear to me This world has lost its glory Let's start a brand new story now my love Right now there'll be no other time And I can show you how my love Talk in everlasting words And dedicate them all to me And I will give you all my life I'm here if you should call to me You think that I don't even mean A single word I say It's only words and words are all I have To take your heart away |

Please no more therapy Mother take care of me Piece me together with a Needle and thread Wrap me in eiderdown Lace from your wedding gown Fold me and lay me down On your bed Or liken me to a shoe Blackened and spit-shined through Kicking back home to you Smiling back home Singing back home to you Laughing back home to you Dragging back home to you I was so wary then The ugly American Thinner than oxygen Tough as a whore I said you can lie to me I own what's inside of me And nothing surprises me anymore But forests in Germany Kids in the Tuileries Broken-down fortresses In old Italy And claiming his victory Shrouded in mystery He went running away with me Back in our home New York Walking these streets forlorn We all in our uniforms Black and black Doing that slouch and jive The artist must survive We've got all we need we cried And we don't look back Thinking we had it made Poised for the hit parade Knee deep in accolades The conceptual pair But ever the malcontent He left without incident Vanished into thin air Now I am always amazed Words can fill up a page Pages fill up the days Between him and me But the vows that we never keep >From bedrooms to business-speak Make me remember how cheap Words can be And the letters I wrote you of Were those of the desperate stuff Like begging for love in a suicide threat But I am too young to die Too old for a lullaby Too tired for life on the ledge But I had a dream last night Of lovers who walked the plank Out on the edge of time Amidst ridicule They laughed as they rocked and reeled Over the mining fields Coming to rest on this ship of fools But he just took polaroids Of her smile in the light Of the dawn of the menacing sky And before they went overbaord She turned and held up a card And it said Valentine |

I got a cool head doin' alright But I been up here so long I was starving For some hot spells, summer lights Shinin' on your back roads Tennessee Somebody hit me hard Right in my own backyard Somebody put a hope lock on my heart Runnin' down your back roads Tennessee Oh you got the banjos And they play real slow Not to me, not to me I never heard such rock and roll As on your back roads Tennessee Now I know you're not to blame But you know that you should have told me That I would never be the same After riding down your back roads Tennessee Somebody held me tight Somebody tried to fight Somebody raced out in the night Runnin' down your back roads Tennessee Oh you kissed the soul of a rebel In a Yankee girl You got to me I heard you callin' 'round the world From your back roads Tennessee I saw somebody standin' In a field with a crutch Behind his rich southern daddy With a Midas touch They said be outta here by sundown They said good luck You might say I was the stranger Who knew too much Somebody took a hope lock from my heart And threw it down your back roads Tennessee Oh you feel the north wind blow That's only me I want to hear some rock and roll On your back roads Tennessee I'm not the bad city girl Come down to rape you I'm not the hometown queen Who wants to save you I heard you callin' to my soul From your back roads Tennessee |

Here we go again Another round of blues Several miles ago I set down my angel shoes On a lost highway For a better view Now in my mind's eye All roads lead to you Chorus: So wherever you go You better take care of me This time If you're gonna go Remember me and all This time We had our bitter cheer And sweet sorrow We lost a lot today We get it back tomorrow I hear the sound of wheels I know the rainbow's end I see lights in a fat city I feel love again Chorus All this time I been makin' deals Shades if black and white On a Hollywood reel All this time I been missing Something so real All this time I been a face in the crowd Now I'm living in color And laughing out loud All these names For just foolin' around It's a new breakthrough It's an old break down We smoked a lot of hope We did our cryin' , too We're finally waking up To what real love can do Down a lost highway Under the twilight moon A chorus in your eyes Another round of blues Chorus We had all This time We had all This time |

I don't know what else to do I would rather do anything Than write this song for you And perpetuate this thing In my head, in my living room With the usual arsenal Of broken chords and rusty strings To surrender all And I don't like to be so weak Retreating behind these lines The same old tongue-in-cheek Regretting that both are mine And I don't like to live this way This is really true But I know better than to pray now About what I just have to learn to do But imagine the nerve of God Letting me let you in And I thought I could let you go in grace I've gotta think again Because right now I would be bought and sold To see your face somewhere I would sell your sweet soul Just to touch your crazy black gold hair I don't care what's really real I was someone that you'd heard of I saw heaven in your eyes And we made a deal And that's what I know of love Music, it never goes But I told you I hate that shit When people say"well you know You got a song out of it" But I don't know what else to do I would rather be anywhere Than here without you |

Maybe somewhere in the southern hemisphere There could be room for all this love Where they've saved a place for innocence And what is still mysterious And their dreaming time They're dreaming time Because we've broken down the wilderness And we've blackened up the skies And we cry 'cause we've got no vision left While the smoke gets in our eyes And there's no more time And the dream is dying But I love you baby And I know you and I Can find a way to heaven Just like Orion in the sky He's the long lost hero He's the guardian of your son But can he protect us baby >From all the sad things we've done Now I know there's no sense in hiding And we can't escape this war And I have made my peace with dying Down here on this killing floor In a world gone blind Where there's no more time But I love you baby And I know by and by We gonna find a way to heaven Just like Orion in the sky He can walk upon the water He can shine for everyone But can he protect us baby >From all the sad things we've done Is it too much to ask in a lifetime For just one shot at happiness Do you just have to laugh at the right lines Until you come face to face With the looking glass To be reckoned with the sins of our time I love you baby I can see you and I As we fly away together Up to Orion in the sky He's the last of the fallen angels He's the light of the Southern Cross Maybe he can take us baby Back to the paradise we've lost So I'll see you darlin' Now fly baby, fly Down across the Fiji Islands To where the Seven Sisters cry Gather all your dreams and take them Somewhere so far out of reach Follow the sword of the hunter, baby And meet me on the beach We are forever tied Still on the run To the medicine man For all the sad, sad things We've done |

Full full moon and That same sad nature I wanna cover every inch of you Like ink on paper Like the blind parade of souls Consumed by religion I can't wait 'til I get you In that defenseless position Chorus: When we set the prairie on fire Oh we go down to the water Naked and slow You and me And the heart of desire We set the prairie on fire How hard will the wind blow How far will it go When the feeling burns down To one solitary color The velocity of longing Melting into each other It's a song our fingers play All at once and together You can bet we never learned it But we've known it forever Oh I dreamed that we were flying Carried up from the ashes Black silhouettes of velvet Against the crimson of passion We can almost hear the echoes >From the smoldering meadow It's the rapture of the angels And the rage of the devil Chorus In the cool dusk of horses Through the rusted wires of sleep With our arms around midnight We're headed for release We go riding in the wind We go riding in the dark Go riding, riding Chorus |

I was feeling imploded A wooden smile, a wooden heart Then things exploded Like rockets in the dark Now I'm pulling out splinters And off to hibernate somewhere For the nuclear winter Of another love affair 'Cause he seemed like a miracle I ate it up like cereal But it was something like shrapnel Steady on! It's like ten miles of two-lane On a South Dakota wheat plain In the middle of a hard rain A slow boat or a fast train I'm gonna keep my head on straight I'm gonna keep my head on straight I'm gonna keep my head on straight Steady on |

Though i've tried before to tell him
Of the feelings I have for him In my heart Every time that I come near him I just loose my nerve like Ive done From the start Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on Do I have to tell the story? Of the thousand rainy days Since we first met Its a big enough umbrella But its always me who ends up getting wet Cause every lil thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on I resolve to call him up A thousand times a day And ask him if hell marry me In some old fashioned way But my silent fears have gripped me Long before I reached the phone Long before my tongues tripped me must i always be alone Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on goes ongoes on |

And all the shadows that come and go Sometimes I can hear them laugh and cry In my lonely room with a view I can't sleep and so I think of you And watch the world as it passes by I can't close my eyes I can't close my eyes Chorus: This is my window to the world All of the loney boys and girls Are a reflection in my eyes Of me and you This is my window to it all I see the heroes rise and fall This is my window to the world And I can see As the night turns into day Old ladies shuffle by and wave And the kids sell drugs to cars that slowly cruise Young lovers walk across my street Oblivious to the refugees And the lonely lost baby, that's me and you I can't close my eyes I can't close my eyes Chorus |

There ain't a lot that you can do in this town.
You drive down to the lake and then you turn back around. You go to school and you learn to read and write. So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life. I work at the fillin' station on the interstate. Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates. They ask me how far into Memphis girl, and where's the nearest beer. And they don't even know that there's a town around here. Someday I'm finally gonna let go. 'Cause I know there's a better way. And I wanna know what's over that rainbow. I'm gonna get out of here someday. Now my brother went to college cause he played football. I'm still hangin' round cause I'm a little bit small. I got me a 67 Chevy, she's low and sleek and black. Someday I'll put her on the interstate and never look back. |

Over by the wildwood, hot summer night.
We lay in the tall grass, til the mornin' light come shining If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam. Sometimes to serve my country , Sometimes I stay at home. Just don't put me in the frame upon the mantel Where memories turn dusty old and grey. Don't leave me alone in the twilight. Twilight is the loneliest time of day . Never gave a second thought, never crossed my mind. What's right and what's not. I'm not the judgin' kind. I could take the darkness and the storms from the skies. But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside. Don't send me no distant salutations. Or silly souvenirs from far away. Don't leave me alone in the twilight. Twilight is the loneliest time a day. Don't put me in the frame upon the mantel. Where memories turn dusty old and grey. Don't leave me alone in the twilight. Twilight is the loneliest time a day. |

If These Walls Could Speak
(J. Webb) If these old walls, if these old walls could speak. What a tale they have to tell, hard headed people raisin' hell. A couple in love livin' week to week. Rooms full of laughter, if these old walls could speak. If these old halls, if hallowed halls could talk. These would have a tale to tell, the sun goin' down and dinner bells. And children playin' at hide and seek. From floor to rafters, if these old walls could speak. They would tell you that I'm sorry. For bein' and cold and blind and weak. They would tell you that it's only that I have a stubborn streak. If these old walls could speak. If these old fashion window panes had eyes. I guess they would have seen it all. Each little tear and silence step fall. And every dream that we came to seek, And followed after, if these old walls could speak. They would tell you that I owe you, More that I could ever pay. Here's someone who really loves you, Don't ever go away. That's what these walls would say. |
