How long was I asleep?
When did we plan to meet? Have you been waiting long for me? When did the sky turn black? Do you still want me back? I'll pick it all up piece by piece. And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. I am a river with a voice. I came into your life by choice. And none can judge just how that feels. You are a messenger from God. You are the angel I forgot. And who's to say that it isn't real? And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. I'm not looking for the answers. Oh, darling don't you see That just to know the question Is good enough for me. Take up the hearts you came to heal. Put down your dagger and your shield. You need fear nothing now from me. I see the essence of the man. I stand before you as a friend. The truth moves through us even when we sleep. And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By ROSANNE CASH <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

Just one more kiss she'll have to miss this night with you
Now you're guilty of this secret love as I am too You'll get used to telling lies feeling sorry when she cries Now that the strings aren't attached you'll catch on we've done our part Oh this is the way we make a broken heart Lesson number one we've just begun to hurt her so And with lesson two she'll long for you when lights are low And when we get to lesson three when she gets down on her knees And begs you to stop at the door just before she comes apart Oh this is the way we make a broken heart Now we've made a trail of tears for her to follow And we've thought of every line that she might swallow And with lesson four there will be no more for her to bear And on some dark night we'll dim the lights on this affair Then she'll find somebody new and he'll likely hurt her too Cause there must be millions just like you and me practiced in the art Oh and this is the way we make a broken heart Oh and this is the way we make a broken heart Ay yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi This is the way we make a broken heart Ay yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi This is the way, this is the way, this is the way, this is the way Oh this is the way we make a broken heart |

You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right So who does your past belong to today? Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way The girls in the bars thinking, "who is this guy?" But they don't think no |

If you want to keep a woman like me, you got to hold on
If you want to see how good it can be, baby, hold on All my friends think that I'm a fool I tell you something honey, they're not that cool If you want to keep a woman like me, you better hold on If you want to know how far we can go, you got to hold on If you take it slow then I got something to show you Baby, hold on All those girls with their empty heads Can't fill 'em up with the lies they've been fed If you want to know how far I can go, you got to hold on She'll give you reasons for her kind You might believe it, but I'm not that blind If you think you need a woman like me, you better hold on If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on All this small talk that keeps us apart Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts If you want to keep a woman like me, baby, hold on |

On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the light
For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright On the surface everything's all right We have the grace of actors on the stage We orchestrate the moves that complement the play But the things that we believe in we just throw them away On the surface everything's okay We say goodnight and then we close our eyes To drift in different worlds far from each other's sight Dreaming of yesterday when we held each other tight And on the surface everything's all right What are you thinking tonight I don't know you (I don't know you) My words disappear in the night and there's no one there to notice Maybe our lives will never be the same But we can face tomorrow if we can just get through today I'm holding back the tears while you're pushing me away But on the surface everything's okay yeah on the surface everything's okay |

You don't want no more heartaches
And I don't want no teardrops What else is love to talk about Cause I ain't yours you ain't mine The song don't fit and the words don't rhyme Old memories keep standing in the way You lost her I lost him Two old hearts just won't love again We don't need no memories hanging round Since she's gone it don't seem right Better off left alone at night I ain't faking feelings far away The days just come and disappear You can't talk when I don't hear It don't make no difference anyway I lost her you lost him Two old hearts just won't love again I don't need no memories hanging round I want her you need him Two old fire won't burn again We don't need no memories hanging round |

It's three a.m. in the morning
The train whistle is blowin' It sounds like some lonesome song got in my soul In my soul My baby spent the bank and he won't be back no more My baby thinks he's a train He makes his whistle stop, then he's gone again Sometimes it's hard on a poor girl's brain A poor girl's brain I'm tellin' you, boys, my baby thinks he's a train Locomotion's the way he moves He drags me 'round just like an old caboose I'm tellin' you, girls, that man's insane My baby thinks he's a train Choo, choo rages on, train sound It's the noise that you hear when my baby hits town With his long hair flyin', man, he's hard to take What you s'posed to do when your baby thinks he's a train? He eats money like a train eats coal He burns it up and leaves you in the smoke If you wanna catch a ride, you wait 'til he unwinds He's just like a train, he always gives some tramp a ride Locomotion's the way he moves He drags me 'round just like an old caboose I'm tellin' you, girls, that man's insane My baby thinks he's a train |

It's the right time you know I feel fine tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
It's the right place I've got my new face tonight (I don't why you don't want me) I'm in the right mood I've got my new shoes tonight (I don't why you don't want me) I've got a new dress I couldn't care less tonight (I don't why you don't want me) [Chorus] Somebody told you I was so cold and mean (who was that talking) Somebody wants you and don't want me in between (she better start walkin') Somebody hurt you but baby she wasn't me Let's find a new name for such a old game tonight (I don't why you don't want me) I'll show you how long that I can go on tonight (I don't why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me Just when I think that I can make it without you You come round and say you want me now You tell me don't leave and I want to believe you Why can't you see just how much I need you [Chorus] It's the last chance for a romance tonight (I don't why you don't want me) There'll be no next time if you won't be mine tonight (I don't why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me? |

Blue moon out my window, guess this means goodnight
And you come in and start right in not treating me right Misery's a ball and all its company I'll play the victim for you honey, but not for free I run into that heartache just like a wall And act like nothing happened to me, nothing at all Lately I'm amazed at how blind we can be Lately even dreaming feels like old reality What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again What would I give to bring back those old times What did I say to make your cold heart bleed this way Maybe I'll just go away today I don't care who's waiting at my front door You know that life don't hold no glamour anymore Oh, how can it all look so right and feel so wrong I'll play the victim for you honey but not for long What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again What would I give to bring back those old times What did I say to make your past turn up this way Maybe I'll just go away today Maybe I'll just go away Maybe I'll just go away Maybe I'll just go away to stay Maybe I'll just go away Maybe I'll just go away Maybe I'll just go away |

I stand here by the Western Wall
maybe a little of that wall stands inside of us all I shove my prayers in the cracks I got nothing to lose No one to answer back All these years I've brought up for review I wasn't taught this, but I learned something new I had to answer a distant call At the Western Wall I've got a heart full of fear and I offer it up on this altar of tears Red dust settles deep in my skin I don't know where it stops and where I begin It's a crumbling pile of broken stones it ain't much but it might be home if I ever loved a place at all it's the Western Wall I don't know if God was ever a man But if She was, I think I understand Why He found a place to break his fall near the Western Wall |

In a little cabaret
In a south Texas boarder town Sat a boy and his guitar And the people came from all around And all the girls From there to Austin Were slippin' away from home And puttin' jewelry in hock to take the trip To go and listen To the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box And he would play Well he couldn't ride or wrangle And he never cared to make it dime But give him his guitar And he'd be happy all the time And all the girls From nine to ninety Were snappin' fingers Tappin' toes And beggin' him don't stop And hypnotized And fascinated By the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box And he would play Then one day he was gone And no one ever saw him 'round He vanished like the breeze They forgot him in the little town But all the girls Still dreamed about him And hung around The caberet until the doors were locked And then one day On the hit parade Was a little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box And he would play |

There's a cross above the baby's bed
a savior in her dreams but she was not delivered then and the baby became me There's a light inside the darkened room a footstep on the stair a door that I forever close to leave those memories there When the shadows lengthen into the evening sun first there's summer, then I'll let you in September when it comes I want to crawl outside these walls close my eyes and see fall into your heart and arms touch your face and breathe I cannot move a mountain now I can no longer run I cannot be who I was then in a way I never was I watch the clouds go sailing watch the clock and sun I watch myself depending on September when it comes When the shadows lengthen and burn away the past I will fly me like an angel to a place where I can rest When this begins I'll let you in September when it comes |

I'll send the angels to watch
Over you tonight And you send them right back To me A lonely road is a bodyguard If we really want it to be There's a fascination behind Every window But I know you really care for me And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free No one sees behind the mask No one knows I'm sinking fast But soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free Love is just a lunar slave It's tied to the ebb and flow Generations get glued to the waves Just to see which way they'll go There's a desperation on wild street corners But I think you're just waiting for me And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those wild ones free No one sees behind the door But everyday it's one step forward And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those wild ones free All those nights I laid with my eyes closed But not sleeping at all Those nights I thought I knew which way the wind blows But now its blowing me back to you And the wind speaks French too No one sees and no one knows But every day I'm letting go And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris Soon we'll we sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free |

Take a look at my eyes
It's been a long, long time I used to feel so strong When I knew you were mine But since you let me down I'm hard to be around I don't know what I'm gonna do He could never be you He could never be you I guess it all comes around Baby, please don't cry Love is gonna be a little reckless Oh, lovers all have to stand trial Since you let me go There's nothing going on I don't know what I'm gonna do He could never be you [Repeat: x3] He knows the rules And he plays the part But he only has me He don't have my heart He could never be you So take a look at my eyes No you can't hide the truth No you don't get by on pride It'll run over you Since you let me down I'm hard to be around I don't know what I'm gonna do He could never be you [Repeat: x4] |

We tried to make ourselves pay
for something we'd never done threw the best parts of life away on street talk, strangers and drugs but what we really want is love what we really need is love I want to call out your name I want to hold out my hand the wom |

The world keeps getting smaller
'til it closes 'round my room and everything I feel now is hard and fast and true My window is a spotlight on the madness down below it takes a silent figure to make this place a home Now the candles burn all night without |
