Fields are white in snowy spring and I can't remember
The last time that I've seen her The highway is still cold and wet and I can't forget The way I had to leave her And every passing day, she flickers and she fades Is someone to catch her when she falls from the heavens? And I'll love her yet, though she has done me wrong And I'll bring her back, though she has been long gone And I'll always be her Broken hearted savior And every heavy night Takes out the little life that's left within her Every man she gives her love, he takes it And leaves her with a dinner Our love was once a flame, now I'm just a forgotten name Am I the only one to blame for ever loving her? And I'll love her yet, though she has done me wrong And I'll bring her back, though she has been long gone And I'll always be her Broken hearted savior |

Ain't no getting up again, she gonna bring you down.
Love gone up and jump again, turn it all around. I'm goin' to the liquor store, to get some peace of mind. Something I ain't done before, I can't seem to find. Hold me please, Sister Sweetly Give to me, a place in paradise. Hold me please, Sister Sweetly And never never never leave me. Never never never leave me. Sister I am suffering, a single desire. Hell is the shadow cast from a soul on fire. Hold me please, Sister Sweetly Give to me, a place in paradise. Hold me please, Sister Sweetly Never never never leave me. Never never never leave me. Never never never leave me. Never never never leave me. Never never never leave me. |

He sits beside her in the evening.
She turns and asks him for a light. He worked so hard so he'd be something. Just what it was she never knew. Just what it was she never knew. He lays beside her as she's sleeping. She asks if everything's alright. Is there a secret he's been keeping? She doesn't know anything he says. He doesn't feel anything she says. I've been waiting for too long for love like this For love like this To let it slip away. I've been waiting for your tender kiss Your tender kiss She says "I just might leave tomorrow." He says "Tomorrow never comes." So we'll just learn to love our sorrow. I'll love you tender as you're sleeping. I'll love you bitter through the day. |

You can turn back the tide
Of the cold tears from your eyes The pangs of wounded pride you hold me Did someone do you wrong, yeah Good lovin's as good as gone, yeah Maybe you ain't as strong as you wanna be It's alright if you don't wanna go home It's alright if you don't wanna be alone It's alright if you don't wanna go home I understand, I understand, I understand Nothin' stays if it's gotta go now You can't get water from a stone now Sometimes you gotta think about the things you're gonna love You can point the finger at him You can say you're sufferin' for a sin Somehow a never was never was yet enough It's alright if you don't wanna go home It's alright if you don't wanna be alone It's alright if you don't wanna go home I understand, I understand, I understand When the morning comes you get yourself together To face another day When the day is done and you ain't feelin' good You come walkin' my way Now that you're doin' alright You're pretty much outta sight I don't hear you knockin' 'round my door anymore I'm glad to hear you're doin' well But I know that time will tell Only when you're broken down, is that what friends are for? It's alright if you just wanna go home It's alright if you just wanna be alone It's alright if you just wanna go home I understand, I understand, I understand |

This is the midnight radio one
As music in the moonlit starry night Beneath this purple haze our common dark The heavens obscure, starlight travels into infinity Yet we only see it when the night is black. This is the question the brothers and sisters fear; What is the color of the soul? Said Buddha, Jesus, Plato, and the poets of Old, That evening is the color of the soul. We hide ourselves in artificial light We think ourselves safe and outta sight. You have a million dollars still Enough money to build a city on every hill. Work hard brother, Love alone will pay your bill. Look good sister, Love alone will pay your bill. Die rich, Love alone will pay your bill And evening is still the color of the soul. |

And a soul for every cowboy
And a star to guide him home And an angel to bring him A song to sing when he's alone For the night is far from over And the storm is coming on And the wind is blowing colder And he's very far from home When hell falls cold and wet His heart soon forgets That ever he was loved or wanted to be loved When hell falls cold and wet His heart soon forgets That ever he was loved or wanted to be loved And a soul for every cowboy And a star to guide him home And an angel to bring him A song to sing when he's alone |

New York lady slips underneath the dim trumpet light.
Come from a land she's never known. She sees in her future castles burning bright, But she's got no place to go. And if you should ever speak with her, Keep your promises to a whisper. She is listening, she is listening She hears everything, she hears everything Into the air, and disappears, Into the evening, forgotten in her lonely soul. She wonders why everything ain't right For all the people down here below. Hey, sister where's your life? Brother, where's your home? And if you should ever speak with her, Keep your promises to a whisper. She is listening, she is listening She hears everything, she hears everything Into the air, and disappears, Into the evening, forgotten in her lonely soul. There's a whisper inside every broken heart. A frail, frail dream. Which runs through the traffic and plays a part. Sweet love through eternity. And if you should ever speak with her, Keep your promises to a whisper. She is listening, she is listening She hears everything, she hears everything Into the air, and disappears, Into the evening, forgotten in her lonely soul. Into the evening, forgotten in her lonely soul. |

A little light looks through her bedroom window.
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems, Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets, Her hair blowing in the breeze. And she can't see me watching. And I'm thinking love... Love... Love... Love... It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. I'm older now. I work in the city. We live together. But it's different than my dream. Morning light fills the room. I rise. She pretends she's sleeping. Are we everything we wanted? And I'm thinking love... Love... Love... Love... It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. I know we don't talk about it. We don't tell each other. All the little things that we need. We work our way around each other. As we tremble and we As we tremble and we bleed. As we tremble and we As we tremble and we bleed. It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. It's bittersweet More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender. |

It seems to me, you and me,
Are chasing something, yeah. What it is does anybody here want to know? It seems to you, you and me, Are forgetting something, yeah, When love is so easily forgotten. And if I pick you up will you drag me down? If I run to you will you turn around? Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. It seems to me, you and me Are being chased by something, yeah. What it is has anybody here apprehended? It seems to me, you and me Are terrified of nothing, When nothing is the reason we are here. Oh, nothing at all. And if I cry to you, will you laugh me down? But I'm asking you to turn around. Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. You are the only one I want You are the only one I want You are the only one I want You are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are And if I cry to you, will you laugh me down? But I'm asking you to turn around. Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. Rise and fall turn the wheel 'cause all life is Is really just a circle. |
