And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again Torching time talking rhymes in I'll come back again Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down While you around here play Wild on the warm and far away While you around here play The days keep scribbling themselves in tidy lines Would you like to play With a fool holding hands With a one-eyed jack of spades While on the deck they sing All of the captain's cards are kings Still he and the queen are lost at sea I hope it isn't you and me And I'll be back 'round again Yes I'll walk in time with you old friend And we'll find that place that we danced in so long ago And in plays to write the wire in I'll come back again Torching time talking rhymes in I'll come back again With this resigned the letter I sign |

Look at me dreaming of you
All I could hope is to have you To have you walking with me Laughing so in love, we two Almost drunkenly I did imbibe of this Fantasy of you and me Was I a fool to think? The way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away too quick Was I a fool, was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all? I′ve grown tired of love You are the trouble with me I watch you walk right by I smile, you do not notice me Treat me recklessly All you do is toss me pennies out But the silence in me is screaming Won′t you come and get me? Was I a fool to think? The way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away too quick Was I a fool, was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all? Was I a fool to think? The way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away too quick Was I a fool, was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all? You make a mess of me here I dance a thousand steps for you And if you say yes to me I′ll be whatever gets you through You make a mess of me here (was I a fool?) I dance a thousand steps for you (was I a fool?) Was I a fool, was I a fool to think? Am I a fool, am I a fool for you? |

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 |

Hello, how are you doing today
I hope I find you feeling healthy I'm so glad our paths crossed this time today On our way into the night We'll find love inside in here, many shadows in the darkness baby, it's you and I who bring it to the light Love, when I approach, a tear falls like rain, you tell me Baby, your hearts into a thousand pieces Stop only the old and wise, with clouded eyes, You can't see what I can't hide Blindly throw my faith to the face Of the next pretty girl to come my way So here we are all of us stand around We're leaning heavy on each other Always wondering what is it lies behind the worried eyes of one another I believe its love that's hiding there in the shadows, in the darkness Maybe we'll shed a little light and it will shine Love when I approach, my tears that fall like rain as you know Maybe, my heart's into a thousand pieces Stop only old and wise, with clouded eyes You can't see what I can see Cause I blindly throw my faith to the face Of the next good thing that comes my way I say it's love, so share it out, share it fair, but share it now though Maybe things are better world and they could be ours Love as I approach the tears they fall like rain you tell me Baby your heart's into a thousand pieces dashed Stop Only old and wise with clouded eyes You can see what I can I blindly throw my faith To the face of the next good thing to come my way |

Say, my love, I came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what I'm seeking Love, you drive me to distraction Hey my love do you believe that we might last a thousand years Or more if not for this, Our flesh and blood It ties you and me right up Tie me down Celebrate we will Because life is short but sweet for certain hey We climb on two by two To be sure these days continue Things we cannot change Hey, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth Grown tired of water all the time You quench my heart and, you quench my mind Celebrate we will 'Cause life is short but Sweet for certain We climb on two by two To be sure these days continue Things we cannot Celebrate you and me Climb two by two, to be sure These days continue Things we cannot change Oh, my love I came to you With best intentions You laid down and gave to me Just what I'm seeking Celebrate we will 'Cause life is short But sweet for certain hey We climb two by two To be sure these days continue Things we cannot change... Things we cannot change. |

I hear more than I like to...
So I boil my head in a sense of humor... I laugh at what I cannot change... I throw it all on the pyre again...go then and do this I'd do it for you... When all that I want is so badly to be... By myself again... It's going to drive me right out of my brain Drive in drive out I'm leaving Drive in drive out I'll come back again Drive in drive out I'm leaving Drive in drive out I don't care if we all turn to waste... So when I beg...you avoid me...because I smell of dirt... hungry, Hungry boy...you won't leave me all alone...the boy won't go Sooner or later we're done Sooner or later I'm gone Because, because Sooner or later we're gone Sooner away Ooh, my head is pounding now...god has all but left me behind... Not a sense of worry...I'm going to drive in and drive out again Drive in drive out I'm leavin Drive in drive out I'll come Drive in drive out I'm leavin Drive in drive out I'm over this arrangement...

You cannot quit me so quickly
There's no hope in you for me No corner you could squeeze me But I got all the time for you love The space between The tears we cry... Is the laughter that keeps us coming back for more The space between... The wicked lies we tell and hope to keep safe from the pain But will I hold you again These fickle fuddled words confuse me Like will it rain today We waste the hours with talking, talking These twisted games we're playing We're strange allies With warring hearts What a wild eyed beast you be The space between The wicked lies we tell and hope to keep safe from the pain But will I hold you again Will I hold Look at us spinning out in the madness of a roller coaster You know you went off like the devil in the church In the middle of a crowded room All we can do my love Is hope we don't take this ship down The space between Where you smile and hide Is where you'll find me if I get to go The space between The bullets in our fire fight Is where I'll be hiding waiting for you The rain that falls Splashed in your heart Ran like sadness down the window into your room The space between our wicked lies is Where we hope to keep safe from pain Take my hand Cause we're walking out of here Right out of here Love is all we need dear The space between What's wrong and right Is where you'll find me hiding Waiting for you The space between In your heart and mine Is the space we'll fill with time The space between |

When I step into the light
My arms are open wide When I step into the light My eyes searching wildly Would you not like to be Sitting on top of the world with Your legs hanging free Would you not like to be ok, ok, ok? When I'm walking by the water Splish splash me and you takin a bath When I'm walking by the water Come up through my toes To my ankles To my head To my soul And I'm blown away When I'm walking by the water Splish splash me and you takin a bath When I'm walking by the water Come up through my toes To my ankles To my head To my soul And I'm blown away I can't believe that we would Lie in our graves Wondering if we had Spent our living days well I can't believe that we would Lie in our graves Dreaming of things that we Might have been I can't believe that we would Lie in our graves Wondering if we had Spent our living days well I can't believe that we would Lie in our graves Dreaming of things that we Might have been Would you not like to be I can't believe that you Would not like to be Would you not like to be Ok, ok, ok |

Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well Branch to branch, limb to limb you see All in a day's dream I'm stuck Like the other monkeys here I am a humble monkey Sitting up in here again But then came the day I climbed out of these safe limbs Ventured away Walking tall, head high up and singing I went to the city Car horns, corners and the gritty Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen Monkey see, monkey do Then comes the day Staring at myself I turn to question me I wonder do I want the simple, simple life that I once lived in well Oh things were quiet then In a way they were the better days But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen Monkey see, monkey do Monkey see, monkey do |

Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beggining You and I let us fumble around in the touches And be sure to Leave all the lights on So I can see the black cat changing colors And walk under ladders And travel my eyes over you Hey we have found Becoming one in a million Slip into the crowd This question I found in the gap in the sidewalk Keep all your sights on The black cat changing colors I can walk under ladders And swim as the tides choose to turn me And here I sit Life goes on, end of tunnel, TV set Spot in the middle Static fade, statistic bit And soon I fade away, fade away This, I admit Taste so good, hard to believe an end to it Smell touch feel How could this rhythm ever quit Bags packed on a plane Hopefully to heaven Shut up I'm thinking I had a clue now it's gone forever Sitting over these bones You can read in whatever you're needing to Keep all your sights on The big bad black cat that's Changing colors It's not the colors that matter But that they'll all fade away This I admit Seems so full Hard to believe an end to it Warehouse is bare Nothing at all inside of it Walls and halls have disappeared My love I love to stay here In the warehouse |

He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling Never changes a thing The week ends, the week begins She thinks, we look at each other Wondering what and the other is thinking But we never say a thing And these crimes between us grow deeper Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die Goes to visit his mommy She feeds him well, has concerns He forgets them And remembers being small Playing under the table and dreaming... Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die Driving in on this highway All these cars end up on the sidewalk People in every direction No words exchanged, No time to exchange when... All the little ants are marching Red and black antennae waving They all do it the same They all do it the same way, Candyman tempting the thoughts of a Sweet tooth tortured by weight loss programs cutting the corners Loose end, loose end, cut cut On the fence, try not to offend Cut cut, cut cut Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die Lights down, you up and die. |

Could I have been
A parking lot attendant Could I have been A millionaire in Bel Air Could I have been Lost somewhere in Paris Could I have been Your little brother Could I have been Anyone other than me Could I have been Anyone other than me Could I have been Anyone other than me Could I have been Anyone He stands touch his hair his shoes untied Tongue gaping stare Could I have been a magnet for money? Could I have been anyone other than me? Twenty three and so tired of life Such a shame to throw it all away The images grow darker still Could I have been anyone other than me? Then I Look up at the sky My mouth is open wide, lick and taste What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying Turn, turn we almost become dizzy I am who I am who I am who am I Requesting some enlightenment Could I have been anyone other than me? Sing and dance I'll play for you tonight And thrill at it all Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes But I'll work it out then I Look up at the sky My mouth is open wide, lick and taste What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying Turn, turn we almost become dizzy Falling out of a world of lies Could I have been a dancing nancy A dancing nancy Could I have been anyone other than me? And then I sing and dance Lalala hey, lalala hey, lalala Sing and dance Lalala hey, lalala hey, lalala Sing and dance i play for you tonight, the thrill of it all Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes but i work it out Then i, Look up at the sky My mouth is open wide, lick and taste What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying Turn, turn we almost become dizzy |

Sometimes I feel like I'm falling
Fall back again, fall back again, Fall back again, fall back again Oh, life it seems a struggle between What we see what we do I'm not going to change my ways Just to please you or appease you Look at this crowd, six billion proud Willing to punch it out Right, wrong, weak, strong Ashes to ashes all fall down Look around about this round About this merry-go-round and around If at all God's gaze upon us falls It's with a mischievous grin, look at him Forget about the reasons and The treasons we are seeking Forget about the notion that Our emotions can be kept at bay Forget about being guilty, We are innocent instead For soon we will all find our lives swept away Look at me in my fancy car And my bank account Oh, how I wish I could take it all down Into my grave, I'd save Take a look again, take a look again, Take a look again Everyday things change,...stay the same Forget about the reasons and The treasons we are seeking Forget about the notion that your emotions can be Wept away, kept at bay Forget about being guilty, i am innocent instead For soon we will all find our lives swept away You seek up an emotion And our cup is overflowing You seek up an emotion, Sometimes your well is dry You seek up a big monster For him to fight your wars for you But when he finds his way to you, the devil's not Going--ha, ha Say, oh say Late at night with TV's hungry child His belly swells Oh, for a price of a coke or a smoke I could keep alive those hungy eyes Take a look again, take a look again Take a look again Every day things change But basically you and me stay the same(*) Forget about the reasons and The treasons we are seeking Forget about the notion that Our emotions can be kept at bay Intentions are not wicked, Don't be tricked into thinking so Soon we will all find our lives swept away You seek up an emotion And our cup is overflowing You seek up an emotion, Sometimes your well is dry You seek up a big monster For him to fight your wars for you But when he finds his way to you, The devil's not going--ha, ha Fall back again, fall back again, fall back again... |

We were above
You were standing underneath us We were not yet lovers Dragons were smoked Bumblebees were stinging us I was soon to be crazy Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die 'Cause we're Tripping Billies We're wearing nothing Nothing but our shadows Shadows falling down on the beach sand Remembering once, Out on the beaches we wore Pineapple grass bracelets So why would you care To get out of this place You and me and all our friends Such a happy human race 'Cause we're Tripping Billies We are all sitting Legs crossed round a fire My yellow flame she dances Tequila drinking, oh, our Minds will wander To wondrous places So why would you care To get out of this place You and me and all our friends Such a happy human race Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die Check 'em out, Boyd, yeah! Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we die |

Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight
It’s 2 am - I’m drunk again it’s heavy on my mind I could never love again so much as I love you Where you end where I begin is like a river going through Take my eyes, take my heart I need them no more If never again they fall upon the one I so adore Excuse me please one more drink Could you make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone one more drink and I’ll move on One drink to remember, then another to forget How could I ever dream to find sweet love like you again One drink to remember, and another to forget Excuse me please one more drink Could you make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll move on One more drink and I’ll be gone You think of things impossible then the sun refuse to shine I woke with you beside me your cold hand lay in mine Excuse me please one more drink Could you make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll go Excuse me please one more drink Could you make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll move on One more drink and I’ll be gone One more drink my Grace is gone |
