I'm a bit unstable, she said
With a Cheshire grin
So many cracks in my sidewalk, boy
Don't you fall in.
Feels like the things that I've wanted
The most in this life
I can't have
So you see I've been damning the world
Before it damns me
She said I'm naked and shameless
And I'm peeling back the layers
Like an onion girl
Don't try to save me
Just stay away
'Cause I might make you cry
Like an onion girl
Like an onion girl
Second grade playground
I still haven't the nerve
Fear is under my skin
Like St. Anthony's fire
And I can't stand the burn
Yeah
So let's break a little bread, have a little laugh
I haven't laughed for a while
'Cause it's a long road back, yes
From the womb tonight
I'm naked, shameless
And peeling back the layers
Like an onion girl
Don't try to save me
Just stay away
'Cause I might make you cry, yes
Like an onion girl
Like an onion girl
She said I'm naked, shameless
And I'm peeling back the layers
Like an onion girl
Don't try to save me
Just stay away
'Cause I might make you cry
Like an onion girl
She said I'm naked and shameless
And peeling back the layers
Like, like an onion girl
Don't try to save me
Just stay away
'Cause I might make you cry
Like an onion girl
Like an onion girl, yeah
Loving you is not a choice
it's who i am
loving you is not a choice
it's not much reason to rejoice
it gives me purpose
gives me voice to say to the world
this is why i live
you are why i live
Loving you is why i do the things i do
loving you is not in my control
loving you i have a goal of what's left in my life
i will live and i would die for you
You give me purpose
you give me voice to say to the world
this is why i live
you are why i live
loving you is why i do the things i do
loving you is not in not in my control
but loving you i have a goal of what's left in my life
Make it go away or make it better
Isn't that what love is supposed to do?
Make it go away or make it better
Cause I would do either one for you
This is not the way you should see me
This is not the face I recognize
Could I lay my head down here for a moment?
Would you sing to me like I'm your child?
Cause I'm not angry I'm not crying
I'm just in over my head
You could be the angel that stayed on my shoulder
When all of the other angels left
Make it go away
Cause I am weakened
This is more than one should have to take
If you do this for me then I will promise
I'll make it go away for you someday
There are reasons with silver linings
There are lessons but I don't care
Cause I just need a hand that I can hold onto
When it's darker than death out there
Oh, and I'm so cold
And so far away from my home
But tonight you're
You're where I belong
You're everything right
When I'm everything wrong
So make it go away or make it better
Isn't that what love's supposed to do?
Just make it go away or make it better
Cause I would do either one for you
Make it go away or make it better
Isn't that what love's supposed to do?
Just make it go away or make it better
I've got a pretty little house that
I can call my home
I've got a lot of really close friends
A new man, I'm not alone
And it's so good to be so loved
It's so nice
Then why is it not enough
Sometimes?.
Like if I start to cry
I might never stop
I could drown the world
Yeah and lose it all
And if I let you in
I might disappear
If I start to cry
Get me out of here
Here I go again, I'm like some loser
On a TV talk show
Everybody feels sorry
For the girl, the lost soul
And it's a damn shame
I tell myself
Appreciate what you have
Or lock it up deep inside
Cause if I start to cry
I might never stop
I could drown the world
Yeah and lose it all
And if I let you in
I might disappear
If I start to cry
Get me out of here
The saddest thing about this is
I don't even know what's really wrong
And the funniest thing about this
Is I'm not even sure what I want
One trick pony one trick
is all that horse can do
he does one trick only
it's the principal source of his revenue
steps in the spotlight feel the heat
of his heart come rising through
see how he dances
see how he loops from side to side
see how he prances
the way his hoofs just seem to glide
he's just, just a one trick pony that's how he is
but he turns that trick with pride
He makes it look so easy
he looks so clean
he moves like one of the gods
immaculate machines
he makes me think about
all these extra moves i make
all of the herky jerky motion
and the bag of tricks it takes
to get me through my working day
he's a one trick pony
He's a one trick pony
he either fails or he succeeds
he gives his testimony
then he relaxes in the week
he's got one trick to last a lifetime.
that's all a pony needs
One trick pony
one trick pony
one trick pony
I Told Him That My Dog Wouldn't Run
I told him that I loved someone
Yeah, that's my old car out in the parking lot
I saw him when he first walked in
I thought it was a vision of him
He was lookiing like where he had been
Looking kind of fragile
He said
I read the Bible everyday
Trying to keep the demons at bay
Thank God when the sun goes down
I don't blow away
My friend said, was he always like that
I said yeah, but he was never this bad
I remember us playing for nickels and dimes
Out on the corner
I asked him to marry me once
He told me he couldn't because
This would be all that there was
He said
I read the Bible very day
Trying to keep the demons at bay
Thank God when the sun goes down
I don't blow away
He was laughing but I didn't get the joke
He was dying to light up a smoke
And I wanted to cry
In the florescent light of the restaurant
I smiled and I got up to go
I was hoping for a goodbye to hold
But it was kinda like touching a ghost
So I ran when I walked out
He said
I read the Bible every day
Trying to keep the demons at bay
Thank God when the sun goes down
I don't blow away
I got in my car and I drove
Over the bridge to the coast
Well I broke down in E. St. Louis
On the Kansas City line
and I drunk up all my money
that I borrowed every time
and I fell down at the derby
and now the night's black as a crow
It was a train that took me away from here
but a train can't bring me home
What made my dreams so hollow
was standing at the depot
with a steeple full of swallows
that could never ring the bell
and I come ten thousand miles away
with not one thing to show
well it was a train that took me away from here
but a train can't bring me home
I remember when I left
without bothering to pack
you know I up and left with
just the clothes I had on my back
now I'm sorry for what I've done
and I'm out here on my own
well it was a train that took me away from
Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, now.
The way you look I understand
That you were not impressed.
I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress.
I'm not going to get too sentimental
Like those other sticky valentines,
'Cause I don't know if you've were loving some body.
I only know it isn't mine.
Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Alison, my aim is true.
I see you've got a husband now.
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying
In the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand.
I'll bet he took all that he could take.
Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say.
I think somebody better put out the big light,
'Cause I can't stand to see you this way.
Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, Alison, my aim is true.
I'm feelin' like I got the world in the palm of my hands
It's like I'm with you when nobody else is here, yeah
Me and you in here together are perfect
Just come a little closer, oh yeah, yeah
Hold on to me and feel the music
Free yourself tonight
Oh, just do what you want, what you want like nobody's watchin'
Do what you want, what you want, keep the party rockin'
What, what, what, give it up like nobody's watchin'
You know the rhythm's calling you
Lose control, the rhythm's calling you
I can't seem to get this curiosity out my head
'Cause when I'm next to you, you make me wanna take you there
Whatever you need, you can find in me
'Cause I feel like, boy, touch me there
Chemistry is flowing, keep me going don't stop, baby
Hold on to me and feel the music
Free yourself tonight
Oh, just do what you want, what you want like nobody's watchin'
Do what you want, what you want, keep the party rockin'
What, what, what, give it up like nobody's watchin'
You know the rhythm's calling you
Lose control, the rhythm's calling you
Calling you, calling you, calling you
The rhythm's calling you
The rhythm's calling you
The rhythm's calling you
Oh, just do what you want, what you want like nobody's watchin'
Do what you want, what you want, keep the party rockin'
What, what, what, give it up like nobody's watchin'
You know the rhythm's calling you
Lose control
Oh, just do what you want, what you want like nobody's watchin'
Do what you want, what you want, keep the party rockin'
What, what, what, give it up like nobody's watchin'
You know the rhythm's calling you
Lose control, the rhythm's calling you
Do what you want, what you want like nobody's watchin'
Do what you want, what you want, keep the party rockin'
What, what, what, give it up like nobody's watchin'
You know the rhythm's calling you
You're my thrill
You do something to me
You send chills right through me
When I look at you 'cause you're my thrill
You're my thrill
Oh, how my pulse increases
I just, I just go to pieces
When I look at you 'cause you're my thrill
Nothing seems to matter, ooh
Here's my heart on a silver platter
Yeah, where's my will?
Tell me why this strange desire
That keeps, keeps mounting higher?
When I look at you I can't keep still
'Cause you're, yeah, you're my thrill
Nothing seems to matter
Here's my heart on a silver platter
Where's my will?
Why, why this strange desire?
That keeps mounting higher
When I look at you I can't, can't keep still
World seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
World seems to come and go
I passed the same car an hour ago
Looks just like the car
Of a boy that I used to know, yeah
I wonder is he listening
Can he hear these words that I'm thinking?
And sometimes when it's late at night
Does he remember?
World seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter who you are
Looks like today is another day
But I can't say that I can say
'Cause there ain't a single thing that I know
Except how the world it comes and it goes
A hundred miles ago, up above
I saw a thunderhead shaped like a dove
But now the storm has torn it apart
Like a boy who found an open window
Flew out of my broken heart
World seems to come and go
When I'm driving in my car
World seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
And now I passed another town
I close my eyes before I look around
And I listen for that old familiar sound, yeah
World seems to come and go
When I'm driving in my car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
The world seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter who you are
So, so, so
It don't matter who you are
Strike light through
Feeling like a stranger
Just passing through
Sitting in this downtown hotel room
Lookin' at the view
The city takes it's toll of you
Neon Blue
Tombstones of tomorrow
The city's cry of gloom
Echoes from the towers
Like a ghost wind blowin' through an empty room
Flashes from the signs on the arcade
Ten cents of a dollar
It's a sweet parade
But nothing lasts forever
Neon Blue
Streetights on the corner
Splash their colours on the night
Tape decks blare and kids compare
Stories of their flight into everywhere
Riding the wires
Reaching for the moon
Streetights on the corner
Splash their colours on the night
The men drive by so slowly
The deal is always red for gold
Midnight in the city
Is always Neon Blue
The men drive by so slowly
The deal is always red for gold
Midnight in the city
Is always Neon Blue
Neon Blue
I love the way the tattered clouds(2)
blow wind across the sky
The summer goes and leaves me
with a tear in my eye
I'm taking out my winter clothes
my garden knows what is wrong
The petals of my favorite rose
been in the shadows dark and long
Though every year it's very clear
I should be carrying on
But I can be found in the garden, singing this song
when the last rose of summer is gone
You're still the same girl you always were
You're still the same girl you always were
A few more nights on the street, that's all
A few more holes in your arm
A few more years with me
You're still the same girl
With the same sweet smile that you always had
And the same blue eyes like the sun
And the same clear voice that I always
You're still the same girl
The sun comes up, I think about you
The coffee cup- I think about you
I want you so, it's like I'm losing...
The morning ends, I think about you
I talk to friends, I think about you
Do they know? It's like I'm losing my mind
All afternoon, doing every little chore,
My thoughts of you shine bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
not going left, not going right...
I dim the lights when I think about you
spend sleepless nights, I think about you
you said you loved me or were just being kind
or am I losing my mind?
All afternoon, doing every little chore,
My thoughts of you shine bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
not going left, not going right...
I dim the lights when I think about you
spend sleepless nights, I think about you
you said you loved me or were just being kind
A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone
It's a sliver of glass, it is life, it's the sun
It is night, it is death, it's a trap, it's a gun
The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush
A knot in the wood, the song of a thrush
The wood of the wind, a cliff, a fall
A scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all
It's the wind blowing free, it's the end of the slope
It's a beam it's a void, it's a hunch, it's a hope
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
It's the end of the strain
The joy in your heart
The foot, the ground, the flesh and the bone
The beat of the road, a slingshot's stone
A fish, a flash, a silvery glow
A fight, a bet the fange of a bow
The bed of the well, the end of the line
The dismay in the face, it's a loss, it's a find
A spear, a spike, a point, a nail
A drip, a drop, the end of the tale
A truckload of bricks in the soft morning light
The sound of a shot in the dead of the night
A mile, a must, a thrust, a bump,
It's a girl, it's a rhyme, it's a cold, it's the mumps
The plan of the house, the body in bed
And the car that got stuck, it's the mud, it's the mud
A float, a drift, a flight, a wing
A hawk, a quail, the promise of spring
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
It's the promise of life, it's the joy in your heart
A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone
A snake, a stick, it is John, it is Joe
It's a thorn in your hand and a cut in your toe
A point, a grain, a bee, a bite
A blink, a buzzard, a sudden stroke of night
A pin, a needle, a sting a pain
A snail, a riddle, a wasp, a stain
A pass in the mountains, a horse and a mule
In the distance the shelves rode three shadows of blue
And the river talks of the waters of March
It's the promise of life in your heart
A stick, a stone, the end of the road
The rest of a stump, a lonesome road
A sliver of glass, a life, the sun
A knife, a death, the end of the run
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
A Heatwave came into town last week
Came from the Isle of Martinique
We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The temperature's rising,
It isn't surprising,
She certainly can can-can.
She started a heat wave
By letting her seat wave
In such a way that
The customers say that
She certainly can can-can.
Gee, her anatomy
Makes the mercury
Jump to ninety-three.
We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The way that she moves
That thermometer proves
Cry if you want to
I won't tell you not to.
I won't try to cheer you up,
I'll just be here If you want me.
It's no use in keeping a stiff upper lip,
You can weep, you can sleep
You can loosen your grip.
You can frown, you can drown
And go down with the ship.
You can cry if you want to.
Don't ever apologise venting your pain,
Its something to me you don't need to explain.
I don't need to know why,
I don't think it's insane.
You can cry if you want to.
The windows are closed,
The neighbours aren't home,
If it's better with me than to do it alone,
I'll draw all the curtains,
And unplug the phone
You can cry if you want to.
You can stare at the ceiling,
And tear at your hair,
Swallow your feelings,
And stagger and swear.
You can show things and throw things
And I wouldn't care.
You can cry if you want to.
I won't make fun of you.
I won't tell anyone.
I won't analyze what you do
Or you should have done.
I won't advise you to go and have fun.
You can cry if you want to.
Well it's empty and ugly
And terribly sad.
I can't feel what you feel,
But I know it feels bad.
I know that it's real
And it makes you so mad.
You can cry.
Cry if you want to,
I won't tell you not to.
I won't try to cheer you up.
She's got a mouth like a womb
lips made to kiss.
Her lips disappear into the magic of her hips.
She's got every little thing
to make a grown man cry
another man kill
and leave another man dry

more sinner than saint

Baby lets cruise,
Away from here.

The way is clear.
And if you want it
You've got it forever.
No this is not a one night stand.
So just let the music take your mind.
So just release and you will find
That you're gonna fly away,
Glad you're going my way.
I love it when we're cruisin together.
Ya music is made for love,
Cruisin in playful love,

Baby tonight belongs to us.
Everything is right,

Ya music is made for love,
Cruisin in playful love,
You were my adored one,
Then you became the bored one,
And I was like a toy that brought you joy one day,
A broken toy that you preferred to throw away.
If I expected love when first we kissed,
Blame it on my youth.
If only just for you I did exist,
Blame it on my youth.
I believed in everything,
Like a child of three.
You meant more than anything,
All the world to me.
If you were on my mind both night and day,
Blame it on my youth.
If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray,
Blame it on my youth.
And if I cried a little bit when first I learned the truth,
Don't blame it on my heart,
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother
What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be rich?
Here's what she said to me....
Que sera sera
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see,
Que sera sera.
When I grew up and fell in love,
I asked my lover what lies ahead?
Will there be rainbows day after day?
Here's what my lover said.....
Que sera sera
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see,
Que sera sera.
Que sera sera
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see,
At night there's ghosts that slip round the screen
They're much too smart to think of the times when we swung from the trees
You, me and my friends, the road so far below
Don't you feel this sometimes?
If God turned up today
Could anybody think of anything clever to say?
I taught 'em but they're in their own idea of Hell
So come on everybody gotta help me unwind
Get rid of those Ghosts in my mind, in my mind
Newton, slipping something slyly into the drink says
"Satan my boy, I'm starting to think that there's better ways of making a mint coz my blood turns blue and my head is shrinking"
Einstein howling senseless trapped down in the hole
He's all jumped up, he's turned to dust cause he got nailed down some time ago
Now his thoughts are for nothing and it's starting to show now
Don't you feel this sometimes?
If God turned up today
Could anybody think of anything clever to say?
I taught 'em but they're in their own idea of Hell
So come on everybody gotta help me unwind
Get rid of those Ghosts in my mind, in my mind
Cause my memory
Yeah it tells me
That I am not what I used to be
I don't know what I need but I need it
Cause my memory
Yeah it tells me
That I am not what I used to be
I have eyes for you
To give you dirty looks.
I have words that do not come from
Childrens books.
There's a trick with a knife
That I'm learning to do.
And ev'rything I've got
Belongs to you
I've a powerful anesthesia in my fist.
And the perfest wrist
To give your neck a twist.
There are hammerlock holds,
Ive mastered a few.
And ev'rything I've got
Belongs to you.
Share for share
Share alike.
You get struck each time I strike.
You for me
And me for you.
I'll give you plenty of nothing.
I'm not yours for better,
But for worse.
And I've learned to give
That well knowed witches curse.
I've a terrible toung,
A temper for two.
And ev'rything I've got
Belongs to you.

(baby,baby,baby it's cold)
I really can't stay
(but baby it's cold outside)
I've got to go away
(but baby it's cold outside)
This evening has been...
(been hopin' that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(I'll hold your hands they're just like ice)
My mother will start to worry!
(beautiful what's your hurry?)
And father will be pacing the floor
(just look at the fireplace roar)
So really i'd better scurry!
(beautiful please don't hurry)
Well maybe just a half a drink more
(puts some records on while i pour)
The neighbors might think
(baby it's bad out there)
Oh..say.. what's in this drink
(no cabs to be had out there)
I wish i knew how....
(your eyes are like starlight now)
To break the spell
(I'll take your hat your hair looks swell)
I outta say NO! NO! NO! sir
(mind if i move in close?)
At least im gonna say that i tried!
(what's the sense of hurtin my pride?)
I really can't stay
(baby don't hold out)
*both: baby it's cold outside*
I simply must go
(but baby it's cold outside)
The answer is no
(but baby it's cold outside)
This welcome has been
(how lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm
(look out that window at that storm!!)
My sister will be suspicous!
(gosh your lips look delicous!)
My brother will be there at the door!
(waves upon a tropical shore!)
My maidin aunts mind is vicious
(gosh your lips are delicous)
Oh..maybe just a cigarette more
(never such a blizzard before)
I've got to get home!
(but baby you'd freeze out there!)
Well lend me a coat?
(its up to your knees out there)
You've really been grand!
(i frill when you hold my hand)
But don't you see?
(how can you do this thing to me?)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
(think of my life long sorrow!)
At least there will be plenty implied!
(if you caught pneumonia and died!!)
I really can't stay!
(get over that hold out)
*both*
Baby it's cold.....outside!!
I can see clearly now,
The rain is gone.
I can see all obsticles in my way.
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
Its gonna be a bright
Its gonna be bright sunshiny day.
I think I can make it now,
The pain is gone.
All if my bad feelings have disappeared.
There is the rainbow I've been praying for.
Its gonna be a bright
Its gonna be bright sunshiny day.
Look all around
Nothing but blue sky.
Look straight ahead
Nothing but blue sky.
Look all around
Nothing but blue sky.
Just look straight ahead
Nothing but blue sky.
I can see clearly now
The rain is gone.
I can see all obsticles in my way.
Gone is the dark cloud that had me blind.
Its gonna be a bright
Gonna be bright sunshiny day.
Gonna be a bright, gonna be bright,
Got no time for the corner boys
Down in the street makin all that noise.
Don't want no hos on 8th avenue.
Cuz tonight I'm gonna be with you.
Tonight I'm gonna take that ride
Cross the river to the Jersey side.
Take my baby to the carnival.
Well I'll take you on all the rides.
Down the shore, everythings alright
You're with your baby on saturday night.
Don't you know all my dreams come true,
When I'm waling down the street with you.
Sing shalalalalalala
Shalalalalalala
Shalalalalalala
When you're in love with a Jersey girl.
You know you thrill me with all your charms,
When you're wrapped up in your babys arms.
You know you give me everything,
I know someday that you'll wear my ring.
Down the shore, everythings alright
You're with your baby on saturday night.
Don't you know all my dreams come true,
When I'm walking down the street with you.
Sing shalalalalalala
Shalalalalalala
Shalalalalalala
When you're in love with a Jersey girl.
I call your name
I can't sleep at night
Sing shalalalalalala

When you're in love with a jersey girl.

Now he's been gone
For such a long time.
Ever since he's been gone
He's been on my mind.
I got a letter today
Just about noon,
Said don't worry baby,
I'll be home soon.
Every day will be like a holiday.
When my baby,
When my baby comes home.
I never have to worry
About sitting by the phone,
Cuz when he gets here,
I won't ever, ever be alone.
He says he'll get here sometime today,
I know that when he gets here
He will never ever go away.
Now Every day will be like a holiday.
When my baby,
When my baby comes home.
Every day will be like a holiday.
When my baby,
When my baby comes home.
Every day will be like a holiday.

Every day will be like a holiday.
When my baby,
Je ne t'aime plus
Tu n'as rien vu
Qu'un homme qui voulait te prendre
Tu n'as rien vu
Mes failles mais pas mes gestes tendres
Rien entendu
Quand j'essayais de te comprendre
Damner, condamner tes d�mons
T'es disparue
Tu n'as rien vu
De l'amour que je respirais
Mon �me � nu
Je l'ai r�v�l�e sans regret
Tu n'as rien cru
Tu m'as largu� comme un d�chet
Comme on m�prise sans raison
Un d�tenu
Tu n'as rien su
De ma douleur et de mon sang
Qui ne bat plus
Que pour inventer tes serments
Des coins de rue
O' je t'esp�re o' je t'attends
Ta peau, ton corps et ton pr�nom
Et �a me tue
Il a fallu
Que tu t'�loignes de ma porte
De ma vue
Pour que je laisse une cohorte
D'inconnus
Alimenter mes nuits, mes jours
Pour prot�ger mon propre amour
Et mon salut
Tu n'as rien vu
Mon souffle et ma voix qui d�raillent
Ne donnent plus
Mon c�ur qui craignait la chamaille
A surv�cu
Quand tu m'as livr� la bataille
A coups de haine sans pardon
Sans retenue
Je n'ai pas su
Te poss�der te retenir
Je n'ai pas su
Trouver la force d'en mourir
Je n'ai pas su
Trouver les mots pour te le dire
Pour en finir et pour de bon
Je n't'aime plus
Je n't'aime plus
Tu l'as cherch� tu l'as voulu
Je n'taime plus
Je suis crev�, je suis vaincu
Je n'ai pas su
Trouver les mots pour te le dire
Pour en finir et pour de bon
Je n't'aime plus
Je n't'aime plus
There's no place I call height,
There's no way in a mean street,
There's no high, low or medium, there's no little be.
So do your searching, until you're down,
Then realise, you're on
your home ground
(Echo off)
Sitting in a white room, dreaming of a life, (Emma)
You have got me thinking, what is paradise. (Emma)
Should I take an ocean drive, cooling from the sun, (Emma)
Silver screen got me thinkin' this is how it should be done.
(Emma)
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah,
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah.
Stand together alone, not knowing who you are, (Emma)
Friendly strangely strangely friendly, would you keep me warm?
(Emma)
Would you keep me warm? You now, you could be your paradise,
Talk and keep me warm (Emma), you could have you're own dream
life,
Step into your comfort side, comfort side.
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah,
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah.
(Echo next 4 lines in background (Emma) )
There nobody to take me home, cause I'm here, yes where I
belong,
I'm nearly, cause I'm on my way, at my home it will always stay.
There nobody to take me home, cause I'm here, yes where I
belong,
I'm nearly, cause I'm on my way, at my home it will always stay.
So all thats free falling falls, hangs, out of time,
You've got yours, I've got mine, should all this be so precious?
Maybe I should be a little humble? Slate of fear, cause I could
stumble.
So do your searching until your down, cause your on home ground.
(Echo off)
(Continuous echo: take take take take me home, take take take me
home.(Emma) )
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in.
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies.
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise.
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise.
Ba boo ba ba boo.
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.
Blood would flow.
Flesh and steel are one.
Drying in the color of the evening sun.
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away.
Something in our minds will always stay.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
Perhaps this final light was meant
To clench a lifetimes arguement.
But nothing comes from violence
And nothing ever could.
All those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
Look at me up at 5: 00 am
And the ships keep coming through
It's a hundred steps up to the place where I work
It's a lighthouse tower on the wharf
Most of the time there's nothing much to do
Just check the bulbs and the wires
Most of the time there's nothing much to do
Sometimes I help out spotting fires
Cause you'll never know when you? re gonna need me
I'll be here waiting when you need me
You'll never know when you're gonna need me
I'll be here, I'll be here
Last summer, was a force ten gale
Hurricane size from the Belle Isle
We lost one sailor in that blow
You never know
You'll never know when you're gonna need me
I will be here waiting when you need me
Well, you'll never know when you're gonna need me
Cause I'll be here waiting
I'll be waiting if you need me
Now, I'll be here
I'll be here if you need me
I will be, I will be

Stay with me for a little while
Youve nowhere to go, Ive nowhere to go
Makes me so happy when you smile at me
Work all your life, you end up with nothing
Live in one room like a bum
Once I flew in a plane and I fought in the war
I lived in a castle but I slept on the floor
And I dont want to be all alone anymore
Im sorry
Out in the street, the coloured kids playing
Where my own little boy used to play
So I sit in this chair and I ache with the gout
Or I talk to myself cause Im scared to go out
I just want to know what was it all about?
Sorrow is a lonely road,
Rain alike your tears.
Its heavy on the roof,
On the roof above your head.
Tomorrow is a lovers town,
Thats been beaten down.
Hand of winter holds,
life we've lived.
Instead of drowning in dispair,
For I find small comfort in a bottle
When we're apart.
They say don't let the teardrops rust you shining heart.
I used to drive all night for you,
While the children were asleep.
As the dawn broke on your roof,
Back into the house I'd creep.
Where my husband slept alone,
Of course he must have known.
For we always hide the truth
for fear of losing what we own.
So don't forget the words that we choose,
And constantly misuse.
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart.
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart.
So don't forget the words that we choose,
And constantly misuse.
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart.
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart.
Hush-a-bye don't you cry,
Go to sleep-y, little baby.
When you wake you shall have
All the pretty little horses.
Dapples and grays, pintos and bays
All the pretty little horses
Way down yonder in the meadow
Poor little baby cryin mama
Birds and the butterflies flutter round his eyes
Poor little baby cryin mama
Hush-a-bye don't you cry,
Go to sleep-y, little baby.
When you wake you shall have
All the pretty little horses.
Dapples and grays, pintos and bays
Dream away the tears in your eyes
Dream away your sorrows
Dream away all your goodbyes
Dream away tomorrow
I promise when the sun comes up
I promise I'll be true
and just like before the band starts to play
they always play your favorite tune
and dream awawy when everyone's gone
dream away your grey skies tooo
dream away and nothing is wrong
dreams have wishes that are waiting for you
and up ahead the road is turning
turning for you and me
and just like before
the band starts to play
now there's that twinkle in your eye
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't make it serious, life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, when you go
Keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So why not laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't make it serious, life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, when you go
You keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
The house is haunted
By the echo of your last goodbye
The house is haunted
By the memories that refuse to die
I can't get away from the
vision that brings
Intimate glimpses of intimate things
A voice in my heart like a
torch singer sings
I wonder who's kissing you now
The house is haunted
By the echo of your favourite song
The place is cluttered up
With memories that have lived too long
Much too long
The ceilings are white but
the shadows are black
The ghost in my heart says
You'll never come back
The house is haunted
By the echo of your last goodbye
I'll never forget you
The house is haunted
Trust in me, just in me
Close your eyes and trust in me
You can sleep safe and sound
Knowing I'm around
Slip into silent slumber
Sail on a silver mist
Slowly but surely, your senses will cease to resist
Trust in me, just in me
Close your eyes and trust in me
Slip into silent slumber
Sail on a silver mist
Slowly but surely, your senses will cease to exist
Trust in me, just in me
Close your eyes and trust in me
Close your eyes and trust in me
I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world would show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you (2x)
God only knows
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place where we just met
He's just the boy for me
And I want all the world to know we've met, yeah -eh -heh
Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
and I'd have been aware
as it is I'll dream of him tonight, yeah -eh -heh
Falling yes I am falling
and he keeps calling me back again
Falling yes I am falling
and he keeps calling me back again
I have never known the like of this
I've been alone and I have missed things
kept out of sight
other boys were never quite like this, yeah -eh -heh
Falling yes I am falling
and he keeps calling me back again
Falling yes I am falling
and he keeps calling me back again
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place where we just met
He's just the boy for me
And I want all the world to know we've met, yeah -eh -heh
Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
and I'd have been aware
as it is I'll dream of him tonight, hey hey hey yeah
Falling, I am falling
...this is a dark dance
Well you play that tarantella,
the hands they start to roar
boys all go to hell
the cubans hit the floor
they drive along Parkline
they tango till they're sore
Take apart their nightmeres and leave them by the door
Let me fall out of the window
with confetti in my hair
just deal out jacks are better
from a blanket by the stairs
I tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
so send me off to bed forever more
Sure they play my theme song
I guess daisies'll have to do
get me to New Orleans and paint shadows on the pews
turn the spit on that pig, kick the drum that let me down
put my clarinet beneath your bed till I get back in town.
Let me fall out of the window
with confetti in my hair
just deal out jacks are better
from a blanket by the stairs
I tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
so send me off to bed forever more
Sure, she's dressed in Calico, the color of a dog
wave that flag on Cadillac day, a skillet on the walk
cut me a switch or hold your breath,
till the sun goes down
write my name upon the hood, send me off to another town
Let me fall out of the window
with confetti in my hair
just deal out jacks are better
from a blanket by the stairs
I tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
so send me off to bed forever more
World seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
World seems to come and go
I passed the same car an hour ago
Looks just like the car
Of a boy that I used to know, yeah
I wonder is he listening
Can he hear these words that I'm thinking?
And sometimes when it's late at night
Does he remember?
World seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter who you are
Looks like today is another day
But I can't say that I can say
'Cause there ain't a single thing that I know
Except how the world it comes and it goes
A hundred miles ago, up above
I saw a thunderhead shaped like a dove
But now the storm has torn it apart
Like a boy who found an open window
Flew out of my broken heart
World seems to come and go
When I'm driving in my car
World seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
And now I passed another town
I close my eyes before I look around
And I listen for that old familiar sound, yeah
World seems to come and go
When I'm driving in my car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter where you are
The world seems to come and go
When you're driving in your car
The world seems to come and go
It don't matter who you are
So, so, so
It don't matter who you are
Who keeps on trusting you
When you've been cheating
And spending your nights on the town
And who keeps on saying that he still wants you
When you're through running around
And who keeps on loving you
When you've been lying
Saying things ain't what they seem
God does
But I don't
God will
But I won't
And that's the difference
Between God and me
So who says he'll forgive you
And says that he'll miss you
And dream of your sweet memory
God does
But I don't
God will
But I won't
And that's the difference

The problem with your smile is that it's gone.
And all your laughter, will have to wait till after.
And the problem with your clothes is that they're off.
They're folded nicely, and packed up tightly,
Cause you're gone.
But time is burning.
I am learning.
Just cause you're gone doesn't mean you're gone,
Cause your name was written down.
I never thought I'd ever see you bleed.
But your skin is so cold now.
I wish you'd stop pretending to sleep.
And our treehouse and our saturdays are gone.
Now that this is over,
I guess it's my turn to be strong.
Well I want this
I need this
I'm helpless without this
And time is burning
I am learning.
Just cause you're gone doesn't mean you're gone,
Cause your name was written down
And thought I walk these halls alone,
Just cause you're gone doesn't mean you're gone,
Cause your name was written down.
As I lay me, down to sleep, I pray the Lord, my soul to keep.
And if I die, before I wake, I pray the Lord, my soul to take.
And the problem with your eyes is that they still shine
But time is burning,
I am learning.
Just cause you're gone doesn't mean you're gone,
Cause your name was written down.
And though I walk these halls alone.
It's just when you're gone that I feel you're gone.
Bloodtrails in the snow
Someones dying, that's all I know
But the fear of something loathing
Pains my heart
I can hear the ice crack under me
My washed up mind is calling me
For four simple words
The more they're used
The less they're heard
Where's my life I am lost
Through the snowstorm
It's unspoken
Through the snowstorm
I lose hope
Through the snowstorm
Of the lost
It hurts inside my head
I'm dying in my bed
I close my life inside
And I'll soon be dead
When my world explodes
Will I ever see clearly?
Father, forgive me I am frail
I used my words in the wrong way
Left the cord unplugged
Didn't hear what I had to say
Mother, please watch me where I stand
The imprinted message
Stayed closed in my hand
Didn't speak my mind
It's all gone in the storm
It hurts inside my head
I'm dying in my bed
I close my life inside
And I'll soon be dead
When my world explodes
Will I ever see clearly?
Leave me out
And draw the line
It's all in due time
My life is defined by the lack of decisions,
How can I restrict myself so much
She tries to stab me every night, My russian wife
I have to sleep with turned on lights, My russian wife
I have to punch her when she bites, My russian wife
I bet she'll run when she's out of sight, My russian wife
All that I have planned
3 kids and a van
Off to adventures in the sand
To give that skank a nice ol' tan
I bet you're openly optimistic
Girl shipped in are statistics
I guess I am narcissistic
Too much with the touch of your hand
Everything falls apart like the pieces in the end
I walk a fine line
And I'm out of time
I try to rule with all my might, My russian wife
She makes me high as a kite, My russian wife
I have to prove her that I'm right, My russian wife
She aint much of a fight
Oh she's almost sixteen
Been here for five years
I guess I'll give her one more year
Too much with the touch of your hand
Everything falls apart like the pieces in the end
It's too much with the touch of your hand
