You and your element of dangerous cheatin' death like a stranger but devils got your shirt tail clutched in the palm of his hand double vodka on the rocks on a plastic tray never fails you but it won't take the hours away - hey, hey, hey
Why can't you be Why can't you be It's plain to see you drive yourself crazy Why can't you be Why can't you be it's plain to see you're the only enemy
You got some stories you're afraid to tell tired of living in a shotgun shell headin' west to find the edge of life itself last I heard there were angels walking in Los Angeles with their hands in their pockets lookin cool like me, he, he, he
Scared of lovin' cause it might feel good you want to get it like you know you should what the hell's wrong with living without the blues you stand convicted, you stand accused you're so conflicted and abused, ooh ooh ooh
So here's to you Guilty of being you is the easiest of all the things you do
We used to talk a lot and walk in flowers We used to run and hear each other's voice I would see you and you were pretty Shut out the world and all the noise When you were laughin' I loved to look at you How you were overjoyed, it made me cry I held your head as you were goin under Saw you get lost in all your dreams You amazed me with your ways Just to feel you made me crazy No matter how I got off track You found a way to get me back Saved me from my darkest hour Never could deny your power Holdin' time, life stood still Everything was happy ending Then you were gone Then you were gone Regret is lonely gains me nothin The pictures in my mind are so clear I feel your heart but my soul is hungry I miss your body, want you near Don't know the answer why you are missing My void is deep and I can't find my way You are all I feel and words don't justify Why I cry out loud all day
Mother you had me But I never had you I wanted you But you didn't want me So I got to tell you Goodbye Goodbye Father you left me But I never left you I needed you But you didn't need me So I just got to tell you Goodbye Goodbye Children don't do what I have done I couldn't walk and I tried to run So I got to tell you Goodbye Goodbye Mama don't go Daddy come home
I don't need no Mazaradi, pullin' up no circle drive, headed for some mansion on a hill.
And I don't need no pearls and diamonds, I don't need a fancy fur. What I want ain't bought with a dollar bill.
**Give me some of that true love, that's what I'm longin' for, some of that true love, every heart aches for, some of that true love.
I'll tell you one thing that makes life worth livin', It's two hearts beatin' in a perfect rhythm. Give me some of that true love, uh-huh.
I don't need no dry martini, served to me on silver trays, and I don't need those big city lights. I don't need no silk pajamas, satin pillows for my head.
And I don't need my bed turned down at night.
**Give me some of that true love, that's what I'm longin' for, some of that true love, every heart aches for, some of that true love.
I'll tell you right now how I feel about it, I never know I never want to live without it Give me some of that true love,
(intrumental)
**Give me some of that true love, that's what I'm longin' for, some of that true love, every heart aches for, some of that true love.
I'll tell you one thing that makes life worth livin', It's two hearts beatin' in a perfect rhythm. Give me some of that true love, some true love some true love a little bit of true love.
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings It was so careless of me I guess I've gone and done it It's just a matter of time Nothin' I can do but tell you I'm sorry And that's the hardest part of all
'Cause your love's the killin' kind Your love's the killin' kind
I'd rather walk on glass Than see teardrops in your eyes And I'd fall to pieces just to hold you The best thing in my life It's just luck I get to love you You're the one thing that's right You're the light in my hell, darlin'
'Cause your love's the killin' kind Your love's the killin' kind Oh, yeah
I, I just might cry now Die, lay down and die now Why, 'cause you've done it to me You're puttin' me under
I close my eyes and I sit under the sky I love you and all it's pleasure Baby, it feels so right My arms won't be any use at all If I can't hold you
'Cause your love's the killin' kind (killin' kind) Your love's the killin' kind (killin' kind) Your love's the killin' kind (killin' kind) Your love's the killin' kind (killin' kind) Oh, yeah
I'd die, baby Ooh, I'd die for your darlin' Just want to say I'm sorry Oh, I'd do anything Anything
Wisdom abundant Outlets are few Driving like crazy Can't break through Your body's a brick The demons are calling You must be Tarpoleon Napoleon So full of mystery Open as a wound Didn't know the world Could be so cruel Seeing the image The mirror is holding You're the real deal Tarpoleon Napoleon Strongest arms That God gave a man Embrace all the empty Do what you can Your heads in flames Your brains are smoldering You know it all my friend Tarpoleon Napoleon You keep on stepping up Can't get ahead Rise in the early Collapse out of bed Hoping you'll pick it up The pace that you dread Speed just ain't fast enough Blood that you bled
Smokin' and thinkin' of things to do since you're gone sittin', lonely can't even get stoned takin' a breath of a feeling that once lived in this house
Laughin' and dying at the mirror in the hall talkin' to myself a memory don't remember at all last thing you told me was the first thing that brought on these clouds
I'm lookin' up, for the next thing that brings me down here comes the jet plane I can see the wheels hit the ground however long I wait I'm standin' at the gate, looking round
Walkin' and cryin' stumble into a church startin' at the rafters wonderin' how much more I can hurt hey old man, what are your plans for me where am I bound I'm lookin' up for the next thing that brings me down I'm lookin' up for the next thing that brings me down
In the dark I can hear you whisper shadows still, move across the distance What did you say, it's okay did you miss me did you miss me Make it mine, takin' time, forgotten speak for me, silent plea, surrender What did you say, it's okay did you miss me did you miss me You know at times I wondered if you ever thought of me and I wondered if you wanted to be free like me, and I needed to feel you and I wondered did you miss me baby, oh yeah Turn to gray, bluer shade, when the sun comes peaceful time, cease your mind, Dreamsome What did you say, it's okay, oh baby did you miss me did you miss me did you miss me did you miss me
Black light blue Heaven's perfect hue the ultimate possession the game you couldn't lose the voice in the corner the song you hardly knew the terrible admission some tragic lonely tune slow the Spanish dancer on a stage
Black light blue is tearing me in two a mad revelation Shakespeare isn't true the raising of the glasses the falling into sin dying in the desert the loners lonely end in the shifting sand oasis
Black light Blue cock-a-doodle-do calling for the innocent the taming of the shrew the muting of the colors the mystical review trying for forever, is what you'll never do there you stand, alone Black light blue
I've been wanting to talk to you Got some questions on my mind I feel like you have gone away Can't find you I wonder where your head has been Just want to be near you again Feel like you are hiding from me Gotta find you Babe let go of all your troubles Let me hold you like no other I'm your daddy I'm your mother Trust me Forget the past we are the future Together we're the perfect picture I'm your cover I'm your lover Trust me Forever since you let me touch you Did you forget how much I love you Don't you know how bad I want you Remember Take a step back in my eyes When we took up each other's time With you in me I feel alive You're my everything Babe let go of all your troubles Let me hold you like no other I'm your daddy I'm your mother Trust me Forget the past we are the future Together we're the perfect picture I'm your cover I'm your lover Trust me
Here's your invitation For your consideration Nothins' easy We'll go slow And I'll never ask for anything more Than you can give me in return We'll never know for sure What we will find if we don't try On the other side Oh we'll take our time Bend just a little bit break just a little bit Bend just a little bit get rid of it Bend just a little bit break just a little bit Bend just a little bit, I won't let you fall Let's have a conversation Talk about our situation Embrace the night, don't let go No one else has to know Understand a little more What feelin' somebody is good for Stay with me the whole night through There's nothin' good as lovin' you When daylight breaks I'll love you more Than I did before All you gotta know is Bend just a little bit break just a little bit Bend just a little bit get rid of it Bend just a little bit break just a little bit Bend just a little bit, I won't let you fall There's no expectations Just give into temptation Don't be afraid if you need to cry I got enough love to get you by Fallin in's the easy part if you're in my arms
I was on my way to somewhere to the Mexicali sand A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands He told me some stories - I told him some lies Light shone through my darkness, cast shadows from my mind His eyes they looked right through me Oh I knew he carried weight Something real was going down that day Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound Oh we talked about the world gone bad The troubles we had seen We talked about the dirt Brown shoes he wore on his feet He said I'm tired and weary I've been riding a long way Let me rest my eyes now Let me drift away He acted Like he knew me Then he fell asleep I had no More secrets I could keep Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound Somewhere in the sunlit mornin' I stepped off the bus in the Middle of the city of angels And that long haired hippie was up And gone where devils run and play and lust Lookin for the danger Oh and I looked at my feet and Saw the shoes that he had worn and Thank God for that beautiful stranger Was that Jesus Was that Jesus Was that Jesus Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound And I'll rise again Ain't no power on earth can keep me down And I'll rise, I'll rise again Oh ain't no death can keep me in the ground Was that Jesus
셸비 린의 가장 최근 앨범인데 포크록 싱어로서의 셸비 린을 좋아해서
주저하지 않고 질렀더니 어머나. 재즈 리메이크 앨범이었어.
앨범 자켓에도 나와 있듯이 '더스티 스프링필드'에게 헌정하는 식의 앨범인데
대체로 뮤지션들은 다른 장르를 하다가도 한 번씩은 꼭 재즈를 건드려 보는 것 같다.
그 정도로 재즈 음악이 매력적인 장르여서 그렇겠지?...
셸비 린의 01년도 앨범 러브, 셸비 수록곡.
셸비 린은 실력도 좋지만 얼굴까지 극광인 싱어송라이터다.
이 씨디의 자켓 후면에 보면 아주 섹시한 가죽 자켓을 입고 가슴을 3분의 1쯤 드러낸
유혹적인 모습도 볼 수 있는데 음악은 꽤 담백한 포크록 스타일.
컨츄리 가수로 분류되는 경우가 많은데 또 들어보면 그 쪽 느낌이 강하다기보다는
재즈 느낌...
