I walked through walls to be with you
In the early nighttime morning came so soon
And on Thursday night New York glowed
I was in your arms black water flowed
And if you were told
Would you ever know
Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Love's sweet surprise
The light upon your face
And all the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so fine
The light upon your face
And while we lie he is alone
Wide eyed lonely and dreaming of home
There is nothing more that I can say
I Just close my eyes let you carry me away
And if you were told
Would you ever know
Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Love's sweet surprise
The light upon your face
And all the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so fine
The light upon your face
Love is always looking for an open grave
To lay down unfold its arms and die
Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Love's sweet surprise
The light upon your face
And all the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so fine
The light upon your face
Laura has the brightest eyes
Laura has the brightest eyes

Like an ugly James Dean I was waiting for you
But I was never what you were looking for
I remember all the days I tasted you on my lips
I was in a haze
I was in a haze
You know it's so hard to let you go
Feeling so down yeah I was low
Leave it to die and then divide
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
Baby make the bed and just destroy it again
Like you always did like you did before
I heard you call my name from the top of the stairs
It'll never be the same
It'll never be the same
You know it's so hard to let you go
Feeling so down yeah I was low
Leave it to die and then divide
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
Does anybody else here feel half alive
Staring out the corner of your eyes
You know it's so hard to let you go
Feeling so down yeah I was low
Leave it to die and then divide
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
So long baby kiss me goodbye
So long baby goodbye

Back then when the heartbreak came yeah it hit me pretty hard
I waved hello and goodbye to the ghosts on the boulevard
Well oh my baby, you're so sweet it makes me cry
Well oh my baby, you're so sweet it makes me cry
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
I wanna cry
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Locked up with the dope fiends honey just trying to sympathize
He turned and looked at me with his cold dead blood red drag queen eyes
Well oh my baby, you're so sweet it makes me cry
Well oh my baby, you're so sweet it makes me cry
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
I wanna cry
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Your former lover is leaving checking out not coming back
The downtown trains have taken him screaming on down the track
There is a terrible taste on his tongue from the chemicals
He's gonna spit his blood all over the dope white walls
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
You're so sweet
I wanna cry
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Late in the summer children run without clothes
Chill of the winter not far down the road
And in the windows are silhouettes of husbands and wives
Watching in silence till the evening arrives
And there all around insects scream in the trees
The promise of rain can be heard on the breeze
Oh Lord,Oh lord we break so easy
Oh Lord,Oh lord we shatter like glass
The headlights glow and the sky will soon be black
The freeway riders are rolling, heading back
Heading back home
A dark haired woman is driving the roads
Breathing deeply she don't mind being alone
I spend my nights in the reservoir
Saying prayers for the passing cars

Let me carry your bags
Let me lighten your load
Let me mellow your mind as we drive down the road
Oh Lady Memphis let me ride
Your beautiful slide guitar suicide
I'll find you baby don't try to hide
You know love is true and it ain't no lie
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels
Baby take off your clothes
And roll with me
Baby nobody knows
That you're here with me
Oh Lady Memphis let me ride
Your beautiful slide guitar suicide
I'll find you baby don't try to hide
You know love is true and it ain't no lie
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels
Well it's late in the day
You say you got to go home
I'll send you on your way
Leave me on my own
Oh Lady Memphis let me ride
Your beautiful slide guitar suicide
I'll find you baby don't try to hide
You know love is true and it ain't no lie
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels
Tell me how it feels

Blue light of morning palm trees in rows
The end of my affair with the west coast
I was already dressed when she opened her mouth
And decided to give up the ghost
Helicopters the coast guard and radar screens
The haunted and lonely technology
I'll cut all my ties with the dead and the dying
I have been wasting my time
In need of a substance to steady my hands
I'm gonna make the most of this day's plans
Falling in love with the shivering engines
Falling in love with the prettiest sound
I'm on your side
Behind the frontlines
A tear in the fabric that no one could see
But your heart was always unraveling
I gathered the twine as it trailed from behind
Collected it all in my coat
The Pacific Ocean you claim as your own
The vineyard the graveyard the grapes and the bones
Falling in love with the weight of the water
Falling in love with the taste of the ghost
I'm on your side
Behind the frontlines
On drugs in the dark with the one I love
That my friends is where I wish I was
Tied up in twine with the dead and the dying
And dragging back home under her control
She's looking for someone to settle her debts
And I always settle for the silhouettes
Falling in love with some back lighted stranger
Falling in love and going into the red
I'm on your side
Behind the frontlines

You started over yesterday
In dirty rain the sky was so grey
You listen to the engine sing
And you forget about everything
Let the sun shine
Like it's never shined
Across a blue sky
And watch the time fly
Free all the lonely boys who love no one
And dream on through the years and leave the light on
You never felt a night so cold
Your angry eyes were tightly shut closed
You fell out of love with rock and roll
You shot a hole in your radio
Let the sun shine
Like it's never shined
Across a blue sky
And watch the time fly
Free all the lonely boys who love no one
And dream on through the years and leave the light on
Don't you dream on

No love
No love
Stop right where you are
There's no use pretending
There's nothing left to see below
Love below
Love our little window
There's the sound of shouting explosions in the street
So sleep well tonight my dear
Sleep sound shut out the noise you hear
You know it gets harder with each passing year
No love
No love
Stop right where you are
There's no use pretending
There's nothing left to see
Sleep well tonight my dear
Sleep sound shut out the noise you hear
You know it gets harder with each passing year
City in love
City on fire
City in love
City on fire
I awoke to find the city on fire

Put me in your holy war
I will lay my body down
I will lay my body down
I will run into the flames
Put me in that holy warv We will do most anything
We will ride on angels wings
Like new crowned Christian Kings
All god's children
Got automatic weapons
We're coming after you
We're coming after you
'Cause Jesus loves you too

New York City take me down
Beneath my feet the city street
The dirt the shit and the concrete
Well I'm on my way
Get closer every day
Gonna close my eyes and pray
For salvation day
Another year another war
Something else worth dying for
So spill your blood for the land you love
And bring them fire from above
Well I'm on my way
Get closer every day
Gonna close my eyes and pray
For salvation day
Breathe honey breathe honey breathe
While you still can
Well I'm on my way
Get closer every day
Gonna close my eyes and pray
For salvation day

The soldiers will run and the guns they will blow them away
They're choking on sand in some faraway land today
Don't go
Stay at home
Was it you that I saw in the market just losing your way
With your head in your hands and baby just crying away
Don't go
Stay at home
Such a sad sight to see all the sweethearts alone in their rooms
The dancehalls are empty under the summer moon
Don't go
Stay at home
Stay home

The child is an acrobat
He walks upon the wire
Knowing well that he might fall
Still he climbs up higher
If he should slip
He will surely die
And his body will break and his soul will fly
Into the night where the spirits scream
He will leave this world and become a dream
My father was a sailor
He lived upon the water
Knowing well that he might drown
He sailed beyond the harbor
If he should fall
He will surely die
And his body will sink and his soul will fly
Into the night where the spirits scream
He will leave this world to become a dream
He will leave this world to become a dream
Nothing will change
Time goes by and nothing will
My love she is my saving gracev She holds me through the winter
Knowing well that I will leave
Still she holds me closer
And if my heart should break
I will surely die
And my blood will flow and my soul will fly
Into the night where the spirits scream
We will leave this world and become a dream
We will leave this world and become a dream
