this time i have found the one
toying with it to make my space
forced inside keeps me warm
in your eyes feel my face
why my spot is in the reddening
so it was the fault of my god
tried to bring back the summer
but the summer was-
and will never die
to relate this move
i'll hold my own weight.

Ruby Adeline
Your life will be so fine
Ruby Adeline
You're gonna have the sweetest time
I could wish you lots of things
A clever mind and diamond rings
The knowledge that you're always free
Compassion for all that you see
But the best thing, I can think of
Is to wish you love
Ruby Adeline
Your life will be so fine
Ruby Adeline
You're gonna have the sweetest time
So right from the very start
I wish you a lions heart
A little darkness let it come
So that you will always know the sun
May it shine down from above
Let it fill your life with love
Ruby Adeline
Your life will be so fine
Ruby Adeline

Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going
CHORUS
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Lay down your money and you play your part
Everybody's got a hungry heart
I met her in a Kingstown bar
We fell in love I knew it had to end
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Now here I am down in Kingstown again
CHORUS
Everybody needs a place to rest
Everybody wants to have a home
Don't make no difference what nobody says
Ain't nobody like to be alone

Angel, asleep on my shoulder
You don't know, how you're gonna grow.
Think you'll be strong and kind like your daddy
Sweet and generous, as your mamma too.
Sky above, endless and ever blue
filled with stars, shining their light on you
They're there when you're feeling scared you're all alone, they lead you home.
Home
Angel, look what you've come to.
Like the deep blue sea love is all around you.
It's there when you're standing tall
it'll be there when you fall
It's at the edge of all the dreams you dream
Sky above, endless and ever blue
filled with stars, shining their light on you
They're there when you're feeling scared, you're all alone, they lead you home.
Home
Angel, asleep on my shoulder
you don't know how you're gonna grow.
Think you'll be strong, like your daddy
sweet and generous, as your mamma too.

Too bad, she don't love you no more
And I've a half a mind to give her a call
Curled up in a ball
Is that where you are
Is that where you are
Well it was the same for me, I'll tell you what you will see
As you go
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
I never wished you any harm
But Karma has a certain charm
My dad always used to say
You never run up a tab, you don't eventually have to pay
Well it was the same for me, I'll tell you what you will see
As you go
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Buy a book that'll teach you how to relate
Then tell her all the things you learned too late
In time, the pain will go away
And you'll be free to love and lose another day
Mind what you do
Cause as you see, things come back to you
What do you want from me?
I'm not sorry
That you are down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down

Take me out, take me out
Far into the deeper water
Show me how, show me how
For I have longed to love deep water
I was washed up on the shore
You take me out in the water once more
Slowly, I cannot swim fast
And I know, neither can you
We'll float, let all the clouds pass by
You and I, you and I
You and I, you and I
Why you blue, why you blue
Did she bring you out here too
Wait and see, wait and see
The tide might bring you here to me
I was washed up on the shore
You take me out in the water once more
Slowly, I cannot swim fast
And I know, neither can you
We'll float, let all the clouds pass by
You and I, you and I

She had the yellow eyes of opal moons
So full of love, how could she see?
He thought he'd drown in them
So he set sail
Gracefully she dreamed him free
The Indian Ocean washed him on her shore
Flat backed on a dirt packed floor
One eye on the door
You're ten thousand miles away
As the birds fly, and you want to die
Because you let her go
You say, you say
Oh when she holds me, nobody told me
All of the fear her love would bring
If you could see me
Would you believe me darling
That all my fear was only love
He had a one time look at paradise
A white light, it was bright to blinding paradise
All of the angels that you can't see
When you're equating love
Equating love, with never being free
And you say, you say
Oh when she holds me, nobody told me
All of the fear her love would bring
If you could see me
Would you believe me darling
That all my fear was only love
She had the yellow eyes of opal moons
You looked away from them too soon
The best I can say to you
Though I don't know when
Is that I know you'll feel this way
I know, I know you'll feel this way again
And next time
Tell her you love her
You're always with her
Even when you are far away
Cause if she could see you
I think she'd believe you darling
That all your fear was only love

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love
Is in your eyes
But will you
Still love me tomorrow?
Tonight with words unspoken
You said
That I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets
The morning sun?
ooooooooooo
I need to know
That your love
your love
your love
your love
your love
your love
is a love
I can be sure of
So tell me now
And I won't ask again
Will you
Still love me tomorrow?
ooooooooooo
Will you
Still love me tomorrow?
will you will you will you will you
Will you

Living on a wire, the sight of you could save my skin
And the sun is in my eyes, and the breeze lifts the hair from my neck
So precariously I am inching my way across my life
I could fall if you don't call
a sick safety net appears when I'm with you
Oh, I climb, so high waiting to fall
And then I cry, like a child, on a neverending ride
How does it go down, when you're the biggest kid in your own playground
And how do you see me, how do I fit in your hierarchy?
Oh you tell the girls line up in single file, just gotta rearrange my denial
So I can play with you, and now I see, all the shit that isn't me
I'm too relieved to be mad, relieved and sad
I misplaced my mind, thought it was lost
But now I find, you were just very, very unkind
You know I always found, that my feet were dangling looking for solid ground
Is it maybe worth closing down the Ivory Tower
And coming back down to earth?

Court the darkness like she's your lover
Girl you nailed one time and can't get over
Feverish and sleepless at night
It's only because you cannot tear your eyes from her
If love is the answer you seek
You're askin' the wrong kind of question
The wrong kind of question will keep
You askin' me, askin' me for love
And all the stars and satellites give you nothing
'Cause all the satellites died
And all the satellites in your atmosphere
They burn for you but you're cold as mars
I know you see the light in the sky like I do
But for you they're just dying stars
If love is the answer you seek
You're askin' the wrong kind of question
The wrong kind of question will keep
You askin' me, askin' me for love
And all the stars and satellites give you nothing
'Cause all the satellites died
I guess there's poetry in a day less life
And profit to be made from your pain
I hope you call me up if you ever get old
I would like to see your face again
If love is the answer you seek
You're askin' the wrong kind of questions
The wrong kind of questions will keep
You askin' me, askin' me for love
You askin' me, askin' me for love
You askin' me, askin' me for love
You askin' me, askin' me for love
If love is the answer you seek
You're asking the wrong kind of questions
If love is the answer you seek
You're asking the wrong kind of questions
If love is the answer you seek
You're asking the wrong kind of questions
If love is the answer you seek

I wish you everything good
It?s no less than you deserve
I wish I could fake with you all
I give you my love
Sorry baby, sorry baby
Sorry baby, I?m sorry baby, I miss you now
You grow like a tree in my life
Yeah, but I?m like a vine
I can?t let you carry my weight anymore
This baby is mine
Sorry baby, sorry baby
Sorry baby, I?m sorry baby, I miss you now
You are a thousand miles away
And I can?t come find you anymore, anymore
I?ve got a ghost in my head
Yeah, he?s a bad man
Some kind of lingering day
Oh, I?ll pay what I can
Sorry baby, sorry baby
Sorry baby, I?m sorry baby
Sorry baby, sorry baby
Sorry baby, I?m sorry baby, I?m sorry now
I love you now

Sure do sing a pretty song darlin'
Pretty music, Lord, and pretty words
Like a lark and sweeter than a starlin'
But mostly like a mockingbird
Words that leave your mouth all turn to ashes
They flutter to the ground like falling snow
Make a bed that's soft enough to lie in
And your foot steps are makin' no sound as you go
Mockingbird, you just sound like what you said you were
Mockingbird, you were the sweetest thing I ever heard
The color of desire is a wretched blue
It burns just like the center of a flame
It pulls the loosest thread inside your mind
It burns everything, but it calls you out by name
Mockingbird, you just sound like what you said you were
Mockingbird, you were the sweetest thing I ever heard
The devil stole the wings from a poor angel
They grew into the skin upon his back
Now half of his heart for me it beats and the other half just repeats
The things I?m feeling for my mockingbird
My, my, my, my, my mockingbird
Mockingbird, you just sound like what you said you were

Eyes as blue as the cheapest streets
That you build your hotels on
You take the pennies I'm betting with
Because cash is cash
I steal your whiskey and cigarettes
From behind the old television set
It's still got a dial
When I get sick, you smile
Oh, oh, are you watching?
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Oh, oh, are you watching?
Mary watch over me
When I was bloodied and broken
From a deadbeat kind of love
You laughed as you held my hand
And said, ?Go on and cry"
"But let that be the very last thing
That you give him darling
Now let's go on in the house
And make a voodoo doll?
Oh, oh, are you watching?
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Oh, oh, are you watching?
Mary watch over me
Got a faded photograph
Lying just like me
I folded it in half
I keep it with me
Oh, you didn't go quietly
Into the great white shining light
You were hopped up on love
And singing Johnny Cash
You looked up and you yelled at me
You said, "Bad is cheap and good is free
So don't pull any fast ones kid
'Cause I?ll be watching you?
Oh, oh, are you watching?
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Oh, oh, are you watching?

I will pass by your house and not look
I won't pick up the phone
I'll read a book
I will put your pictures in a wooden box
I will find a heart next time
With fewer locks
I can let you go
I can let you go
But I can lie as well
Ask your friends how you doing
They say you're doing well
But you can lie as well
So well
I won't feel the rush of you under my skin
My poor brain will hear your voice
I'm not tuning in
Too soon to know the first thing I'll forget
I can let this go
Just not, your memory yet
I can let you go
I can let you go
But I can lie as well
Ask myself how you doing
You say you're doing well
But you can lie as well

I?m an alien in my life
Don?t you know? My skin is white as snow
I went running to the sun
It burnt me up, a painful kind of fun
You?re loving me, give me eyes to see
Rain, cool me down, I?m feverish
Oh, and I?m to blame
Rain, calling me from London skies
Bring me home again
And you always let me go
Even when you knew I was gone for good
In the wreckage of the hell I made
You were there, fire stormed you
You?re loving me, give me eyes to see
Rain, cool me down, I?m feverish
Oh, and I?m to blame
Rain, calling me from London skies
Bring me home again
So I tell you that I love you
Words are cheap and they cannot buy me time
When my shadow cuts my life in two
I can see the best of me is you
You?re loving me, give me eyes to see
You are there and down, but you mean to me
Rain, cool me down, I?m feverish
Oh, and I?m to blame
Rain, calling me from London skies
Bring me home again
We alter and grow
Oh, how it shaped, but somethings stay immutable
We alter and grow

Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness
Who will be there for you
Comfort and care for you
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion
Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you
You've always known your heart was on its own
So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone
Learn to be lonely

Lakewater hair, a sweetest smile seen for a while
In the green tipped afternoon
Triggers up by the moon, there where the night went
Gives you a buzz, gives you second sight
You know that she?s the one
Last time you fell in love
Was the first time
Last time you fell in love
Was the first time
Love has a shape, you feel it swallowed down into your head
And surface in your heart
In the late summer night as bending of time
In a million years seems to last all night
She tells you, you?re the only one
Last time you fell in love
Was the first time
Last time you fell in love
Was the first time
Oh, it gives you something to talk about
Something to hold on to forever
You said goodbye, half way through the window of a car
And tail lights drowned her out
Go down to the lake and you stay out all night
You get pretty drunk, feel bad inside
Girl was the one
Last time you fell in love
Was the first time
Last time you fell in love

Indigo light as the day starts to fade
Still enough light for me to stand in your shade
I have developed a good idea
Oh, of the words you love
Yeah, what you wanna hear?
All alone with the wind whistling 'round your throne
And I know it wears you down so slowly
You chased me all around just to show me
That your head is hanging down
From the weight of your own crown
You're a king without a queen
Stop the thunder when you come around
And the white lighting that burns me to the ground
You say you wanted it, just not now
[Incomprehensible] should I be afraid
Or maybe you'll show me how
All alone with the wind whistling 'round your throne
And I know it wears you down so slowly
You chased me all around just to show me
That your head is hanging down
From the weight of your own crown
You're a king without a queen, oh, a king without a queen
All alone with the wind whistling 'round your throne
And I know it wears you down, so slowly
You chased me all around just to show me
That your head is hanging down
From the weight of your own crown
You're a king without a queen, oh, a king without a queen
Saddest thing I?ll ever sing

Panda eyes and your sister's dress that you took and you tore
And you know that you got a long walk home
Pick your way over drunken shapes on the lawn by the pool
And you lost both your shoes that his Mom's gonna find
Her dress, your shoes
Little flower blooms
Old smoke in your hair
No subway fare, but you don't care
Heart shines like a neon sign
For tonight won't you just be mine
Invisible girl, in the sodium light
She's the queen of the night
Crown starts to slip and fade, little feet on the street
Tired girl in someone else's clothes
Stand in the quiet house, making tea, making toast
Making room for your daytime ghost
Her dress, your shoes
Little flower blooms
Old smoke in your hair
No subway fare, but you just don't care
Heart shines like a neon sign
For tonight won't you just be mine
Invisible girl, in the sodium light
She's the queen of the night
Heart shines like a neon sign
For tonight won't you just be mine
Invisible girl, in the sodium light
She's the queen of the night
Your sun is the evening star
Your temple's the downtown bar
Invisible girl, in the sodium light
She's the queen of the night

I could write the book of you
And illustrate the pages, you shouldn't read it
Oh, I'm the one that you put down
It was written in a hurry, slipped through your fingers
I do everything I should
I still got to learn how to be good
You got two strong arms, I see
Can't you bring ?em around, wrap ?em around me?
I lay my storms down at your feet
Maybe you'll build a shelter, maybe do my hard work for me
Oh, I kick and scream, but the job is mine
So I?ll stay by the ocean, you got your own hills to climb
Oh, I do everything I should
I still got to learn, how to be good
And I?ve got two strong arms, you see
I got to bring ?em around, wrap ?em around me
And I know that I am full of holes
Still they let me, see on through to the other side
And the Southern Cross has got you in her sights
I?ll do everything I should
But I still got to learn how to be good
You?ve got two strong arms, you see
Got to bring ?em around, got to wrap ?em around me
You got to wrap ?em around
Got to wrap ?em around me
Yeah, bring ?em around
Yeah, wrap ?em around me
I?ll do everything I should
I still got to learn how to be good

Oh be a man, as fast as you can,
Oh be a man, as fast as you can
Growing up wild, out in the fields
In awe of the stars, and the power they wield
Oh you loved them anyway
Don't think they noticed you
See how the stars change, from summer to fall
The sole indication, that we're moving at all
Carry the world, with the hands of a child
You can't be a boy, she wants you to be wild
She was the sun, sun, sun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Fills up the room
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
When she was asleep, you'd watch her face
Taken in sleep to a more peaceful place
You'd stand by the door, cause you were her guard
And you'd love her in silence, and it wasn't that hard.
Cause she was the sun, sun, sun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Eclipses the moon
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
She never asked you, what you're dreaming of
She told you 'bout Texas, and liquor and love
She was hard-edged and broken, she blamed a man

I want to lay down with you forever
Or just this afternoon
Watching the shadows getting long
I'll sing you a quiet song
Watch you sleep so slow and deep
Baby I know that all your pain will pass
I know you're sad, but it won't last
I'm betting you everything that I've got in my pocket
When you're staring out into the sky
See what you have
And don't ask why
Things can't be different, they're perfect
Want to remind you how you laugh
Sometimes you don't even make a sound
Till you fall down on the ground
I'm going to love you every day
Maybe it'll balance out the pain
That I can't take away
Baby I know that all your pain will pass
I know you're sad, but it won't last
I'm betting you everything that I've got in my pocket
when you're staring out into the sky
See what you have, and don't ask why
Things can't be different
They're perfect
So come on and lay down with me
I'll tell you all the useless things
That I have learned
But this one good thing my old man told me
Baby I know that all your pain will pass
I know you're sad, but it won't last
I'm betting you everything that I've got in my pocket
when you're staring out into the sky
See what you have, and don't ask why
Things can't be different

I see you coming back to life
I didn?t know I?d win you down
I watch you in the morning sun
Your sleeping hard alone but
Now I think the darkness is done
Belief, belief
I will be in your belief
Oh, real life
People feeling safe when you?re sad
Throws into relief what they have
Sympathy just tightens the nut
Their smiling but they are thinking
They?re before the Grace of God
Belief, belief
I will be in your belief
Oh, real life
Let me be in your real life, real life
I?ll take the way to your real life, real life
Oh, your real life
Not the one you made to hide away
I had a dream of you and I
We were falling side by side
There was no where left for us to be
And nothing complicated
Just the way you looked at me
Belief, belief
I will be in your belief
Oh, real life
Let me be in your real life, real life
I?ll take the way to your real life, real life
Oh, oh, your real life, real life
Not the one you made to hide away
Not the one you made to hide away

Sky's on fire, It's blazing up into the sun
Shouting red on everyone, but you're blue
Oh, I, I?m better than I used to be
Finally got up off my knees, I can't save you
Don't let it bring you downstream
You're drinking all of that cold dark river, yeah
Oh, love come down on me
Tell my heart to set me free
Oh, love come down on me
Can't shake you, you're there in everything I know
You're staring out from my soul
In every song, in every song I sing
Mountains, mountains that I should have learned
I'll stand by and watch them burn with you
Don't let it bring you downstream
You're choking on that cold dark river, yeah
Oh, love come down on me
Tell my heart to set me free
Oh, love come down on me
Don?t let it bring you downstream
You?re choking, choking on that cold black river, oh, yeah
Oh, love come down on me
Tell my heart to set me free
Oh, love come down on me
Tell my soul to set me free
Tell my soul, tell my soul to set me free
Tell my heart, tell my heart it?s free
Tell my heart it?s free, yeah

Late light of the desert made the mountains a silhouette
It?s curved as woman's side as far off as I feel inside
Gravity, it?s heavier than my fear, it pulls me to a new conclusion
The light of you is the weight that keeps me here
I wake up with my soul on fire
I'm swimming in my heart's desire
Not drowning in somebody's wake
Not smiling for somebody's sake
Why don't you just stay here in the sun?
It beats me why you disappear, honey
Ain't I your beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
I see you blue eyed old and gray
Still up all night 'til break of day
You dance me across the kitchen floor
You still got one eye on the door
How you love me with them halfway eyes
And when I think there's nothing left
I think of love and all the time it buys
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
Late light of the desert made the mountains a silhouette
It?s curved as a woman's side as far off as I feel inside
The battle was hard fought but nobody won
I'll be your magnetic north, baby, you be my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

When I saw your eyes for the first time
They were bluer then in my dream
I felt my life run to catch you up
And now it?s there before your smile
Love is love, how can I stop?
Know that I never would
?Coz you are something and we are nothing

Famous quotes by Minnie Driver:

"People go 'You look a lot like Minnie Driver.' Once I said, 'Thanks, Minnie is a great actress.' But, it blew up in my face. This person said, 'Nah, didn't like the last movie she did.'"

"Nothing is impossible. With the right attitude, you can do anything you want. It's all about choosing to be positive instead of being negative about things. Like I can look at "not working" as being "no one's hiring me and no one will give me a job." Or I can look at "not working" as being "a fantastic vacation.""
