Jeff Buckley - Grace (1994) by Jeff Buckley (보컬) on maniadb.com

i'm lying in my bed, the blanket is warm
this body will never be safe from harm
still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal
touch my skin to keep me whole

if only you'd come back to me
if you laid at my side
wouldn't need no mojo pin
to keep me satisfied

don't wanna weep for you, don't wanna know
i'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
the memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
black beauty i love you so

precious, precious silver and gold
and pearls in oyster's flesh
drop down we two to serve and pray to love
born again from the rhythm screaming down from heaven
ageless, ageless and i'm there in your arms

don't wanna weep for you, don't wanna know
i'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
the memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
black beauty i love you so

the welts of your scorn, my love, give me more
send whips of opinion down my back, give me more
well it's you i've waited my life to see
it's you i've searched so hard for

don't wanna weep for you, i don't wanna know
i'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
the memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
black beauty i love you so

The moon's asking to stay
long enough for the clouds to fly me away

Oh, it's my time coming, and I'm not afraid, afraid to die

My fading voice sings of love,
but she cries to the clicking of time,
Oh, time

Wait in the fire

And she weeps on my arm
walking to the bright lights and sorrow
Oh drink a bit of wine, we both might go tomorrow
Oh my love
And the rain is falling and I believe my time has come
It reminds me of the pain I might leave behind

Wait in the fire

And I feel them drown my name
so easy to love and forget with this kiss
I'm not afraid to go, but it goes so slow

Wait in the fire

this is our last goodbye
i hate to feel the love between us die
but it's over
just hear this and then i'll go
you gave me more to live for
more than you'll ever know

this is our last embrace
must i dream and always see your face
why can't we overcome this wall
well, maybe it's just because i didn't know you at all

kiss me, please kiss me
but kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
you know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time
i'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye

did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
and did you rush to the phone to call
was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind
saying maybe you didn't know him at all
you didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know

well, the bells out in the church tower chime
burning clues into this heart of mine
thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories
offer signs that it's over... it's over

I lost myself on a cool damp night
I gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from a lilac tree
Put my heart in its recipe
Lets me see what I want to see
Be what I want to be
Well I think more than I want to think
Do things that I never should do
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Because it brings me back you

Lilac wine is sweet and heady
Like my love
Lilac wine
I feel unsteady like my love
Listen to me
I can not see clearly
Isn't that she coming to me?
nearly here

Lilac wine sweet and heady
Where's my love?
Lilac wine
I feel unsteady, where's my love?
Listen to me
Why's everything so hazy?
Isn't that she?
Oh I just might go crazy here

Lilac wine I feel unready for my love
Feel unready for my love

love, let me sleep tonight on you couch
and remember the smell of the fabric
of your simple city dress

oh... that was so real

we walked around til the moon got full like a plate
the wind blew an invocation and i fell asleep at the gate
and i never stepped on the cracks 'cause i thought i'd hurt my mother
and i couldn't awake from the nightmare that sucked me in and pulled me under
pulled me under

oh... that was so real

i love you, but i'm afraid to love you
i love you, but i'm afraid to love you
i'm afraid. . .

oh... that was so real

I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music do ya
Well it goes like this the fourth the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to a kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah.

Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when I moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well maybe there's a god above
but all I've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah

Looking out the door I see the rain
Fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in the wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind
So you never know
Looking down and hungry for your love
But no way to feed it
Where are you now child
You know how much I need it

Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away
When it feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
But sometimes a man must wait to find
Really he has no one
So I'll wait for you and I'll learn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn, oh lover
Should've come over
'Cuz it's not too late

Lonely is the road that is made
That open window lets the rain in
But hiding in the corner
Is the only one he dreams, he had you with him
My body turns and yearns
For a sleep that won't ever come
It's never over
A kingdom for a kiss upon the shoulder
It's never over
All my riches for her smiles
When I slept so soft against her
It's never over
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over
She's the tear that hangs inside myself forever

Oh but maybe I'm just too young
To keep good love from going wrong
O-o-o-o-lover, you should've come over
Yes I feel to young to hold on
But much too old to break free and run
Too deaf and blind to see the damage I've done
Sweet lover you should've come over
I'll wait for you lover
Lover, love, love....
Lover, you should've come over
It's not too late

he bear her off, he bear her down
he bear her into an orchard ground

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay
the falcon hath bourne my mate away

and in this orchard there was a hold
that was hanged with purple and gold
and in that hold there was a bed
and it was hanged with gold so red

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay

on this bed there lyeth a knight
his wound is bleeding both day and night
by his bedside kneeleth a maid
and she weepeth both night and day

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay

by his bedside standeth a stone
corpus christi written thereon

eternal life is now on my trail
got my red glitter coffin man, just need one last nail
while all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
there's a flaming red horizon that screams our names

and as your fantasies are broken in two
did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you
you better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal
angel

racist everyman, what have you done
man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
crown my fear your king at the point of a gun
all i want to do is love everyone

and as your fantasies are broken in two
did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you
you better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal
angel

there's no time for hatred, only questions
what is love? where is happiness? what is life? where is peace?
when will i find the strength to bring me release?

tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said
man, it sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
and i've get a message for you and your twisted hell
you better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal
angel

there is a child sleeping near his twin
the pictures go wild in a rush of wind
that dark angel he is shuffling in
watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

the love you lost with her skin so fair
is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
her green eyes bloom goodbyes
with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another
dream brother
with your tears scattered round the world.

don't be like the one who made me so old
don't belie the one who left behind his name
'cause they're waiting for you like i waited for mine
and nobody ever came

i feel afraid and i call your name
i love your voice and your dance insane
i hear your words and i know your pain
your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another
your eyes to the ground
and the world spinning round forever

asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

While this town is busy sleeping
All the noise died away
I walk the streets to stop my weeping
But she'll never change her ways

Don't fool yourself
She was heartache from the moment that you met her
My heart feels so still
As I try to find the will to forget her somehow
Oh I think I've forgotten her now

Her love is a rose pale and dying
Dropping her petals in pain unknown
All full of wine the world before her
But sober with no place to go

Don't fool yourself
She was heartache from the moment that you met her
My heart is frozen still
As I try to find the will to forget her somehow
She's somewhere out there now

Oh my tears fall down as I tried to forget
Her love was a joke from the day that we met
All of the words, All of her men
All of my pain when I think back to when
Remember her hair as it shone in the sun
It was on the bed that I knew what she'd done
Tell yourself over and over you wont ever need her again

Don't fool yourself
She was heartache from the moment that you met her
Oh my heart is frozen still
As I try to find the will to forget her somehow
She's out there somewhere now

Oh
She was heartache from the day that i first met her
My heart is frozen still
As I try to find the will to forget you somehow
'Cause I know you're somewhere out there right now

there is a child sleeping near his twin
the pictures go wild in a rush of wind
that dark angel he is shuffling in
watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

the love you lost with her skin so fair
is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
her green eyes bloom goodbyes
with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another
dream brother
with your tears scattered round the world.

don′t be like the one who made me so old
don′t belie the one who left behind his name
′cause they′re waiting for you like i waited for mine
and nobody ever came

i feel afraid and i call your name
i love your voice and your dance insane
i hear your words and i know your pain
your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another
your eyes to the ground
and the world spinning round forever

asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
When I walk by all the people say
Just another guy on the lost highway

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a woman's lies makes a life like mine
On the day we met, I went astray
I started rolling down this lost highway

I was just a lad, nearly twenty two
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
And now I'm lost, too late to pray
Lord I paid the cost, on the lost highway

Now boys don't start to go ramblin' round
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
You started rollin' down that lost highway

Take the blood out of an alligator
Take the left eye out of a fish
Take the skin off of a frog
And put 'em all in a dish, huha

Throw some salt over your shoulder
And count from one to nine
Like a scary can freezer
And you got alligator wine

Alligator wine
Your porcupine
It's gonna make you mine, huha

It'll make your baby bald
It make your toes freeze
It'll make you stare out your eye balls
It'll make you cough and sneeze, haa choo

You'd be wanting for air
But I give you my portion 9
When you drink it, alligator wine, huh

Alligator wine
Your porcupine
Gonna make you mine, huh

Alligator wine, your porcupine
It's gonna make you mine
It's gonna make you mine
Huh, look out, who's that? Huh

perhaps it is the color of the sun cut flat
an' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at,
or maybe it's the weather or something like that,
but mama , you been on my mind.

I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down, don't get upset,
I am not pleadin' or sayin', that I can't forget you
I do not walk the floor bowed down an'bent, but yet,
mama, you been on my mind.

even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow,
where you been don't bother me nor bring me down in sorrow.
I don't even mind with who you're wakin' up tomorrow,
but mama, you've been on my mind.

I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no,"
please understand me, I have no place I'm calling you to go
I'm just whispering to myself so I can pretend that I don't know
mama, you been on my mind.

when you wake up in the mornin', baby, look inside your mirror.
you know i won't be next to you, you know i won't be near.
i'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
as someone who has had you on his mind.

the other woman finds time to manicure her nails
the other woman is perfect where her rival fails
and she's never seen with pin curls in her hair

the other woman enchants her clothes with french perfume
the other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room
there are never toys that's scattered everywhere

and when her baby comes to call
he'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen
cos when he's by her side
it's such a change from old routine

but the other woman will always cry herself to sleep
the other woman will never have his love to keep
and as the years go by the other woman
will spend her life alone

(A. Chilton)
Originally performed by the Big Star

when i first saw you
you had on blue jeans
your eyes couldn't hide
anything
i saw you
breathing, oh
saw you staring out in space

when i next saw you
you were at the party
thought you was a queen
oh, so flirty
i came against them

didn't say excuse
knew what i was doing
we looked very fine
as we were leaving
as we were making
what we were making

Saint John
you were a cool jerk
oh, i want you
like a kangaroo

now i want someone badly
got a girl here tonight
wants someone new
someone new
a little cry wants someone badly
i wanna know if this is a bad lease on me

i want to know
i want to know
am i sure that i heard you right
i want to know
if you're leaving just do it tonight

now i want someone badly
to burn in here with me
but listen baby
'cause i cry all over madly
don't do anything do it for/with me

ooh i wanna know
am i sure that i have your love
i wanna know
if you're leaving just make sure it's right

now i want someone badly
could it be true
that someone is you

Eternal life is now on my trail
Got my red glitter coffin man, just need one last nail...
While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names

(chorus):
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you?
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel

Racist everyman, what have you done?
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
Crown my fear your king, at the point of a gun
All I wanna do is love everyone

(chorus)

There's no time for hatred, only questions
What is love?
Where is happiness?
What is a life?
Where is peace?
When will I find the strength to bring me relief?

Tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said?
Man it sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
Well I've got a message for you and your twisted hope
You'd better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal, angel

I'm gonna kick 'em out
Well I feel pretty good
And I guess that I could get crazy now, baby
'Cause we all got in tune
When the dress ing room got hazy now, baby

I know how you want it, child,
Hot, sweet, and tight
When girls can't stand it
When you're doing it right
When they're up on the stand
And then they kick out the jams, yes
Kick out the jams, I like to kick 'em out

Yes I'm startin' to sweat
You know my shirt's all wet
What a feelin'
And the sound that abounds and
Resounds and rebounds off the ceiling
You gotta have it, baby
You can't do without
When you get the feelin'
You've got the sounds above
Put that mic in my hand
And let me kick out the jams
Yes, kick out the jams, got to kick 'em out

So you got to get it up
And then can't get enough
That's what ....
'Cause it gets in your brain
It drives you insane, makes you crazy
The ...... the faster you funk
If you wanna feed my rocket
Till the morning comes
Let me be who I am
And let me kick out the jams
Yes kick out the jams
I done kick 'em out

there is a child sleeping near his twin
the pictures go wild in a rush of wind
that dark angel he is shuffling in
watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

the love you lost with her skin so fair
is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
her green eyes bloom goodbyes
with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another
dream brother
with your tears scattered round the world.

don′t be like the one who made me so old
don′t belie the one who left behind his name
′cause they′re waiting for you like i waited for mine
and nobody ever came

i feel afraid and i call your name
i love your voice and your dance insane
i hear your words and i know your pain
your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another
your eyes to the ground
and the world spinning round forever

asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

Streetlights flicker on, as they take on the sun
Like counterfeit stars
Watch them come
Watch them come
The pacified hate's full-speed away
A company in the arms of a decorative grave
No tears, no fears - you'll always remain here
The power out there seems to keep you in
Lost your blood to adrenaline
The flesh is weak and the dream is within

And in the plastic room
Seven little honey girls sitting in a row
Pratise for the imperial pillow
Like sweet little strawberries eaten from a bowl
Bite, lipstick red
In a candy store sold
And in the bed I stared - do you hear destiny?
Girl, animal scream

Nightmarey shade, strawberry tile
Drinking for hours alone
Kill memory, watch it die
Pornographic, dead, f**king ripped and bloody
Shredded steaming mess
Kill the memories, watch them die
Lullaby, your mother's once son
Yours is the kind 's born to die young

And on the boulevard, seven little honey girls
Sitting in a row
Manicled to the imperial pillow
And if I came up there to Strawberry Street
It said that I held the key
Would you do as I told you?
Would you give it up to me, automatically?

Strawberry, strawberry....what you gonna do for me?
