Got nowhere to stay
Got nowhere to go Got no one to blame for lettin' myself get so low It's right on the tip of my tongue What's the word I'm thinkin' of It's right in the middle of good and bad So how can it be love My brain is too soft My money's no good I tend to get lost just walkin' in the neighborhood It's right on the tip of my tongue What's the word I'm thinkin' of Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say It's nothing I can't control But in matters of the heart and soul I must admit that I just don't know I don't know what to say I don't know what to do I don't know what possessed me To get together with a girl like you You're right on the tip of my tongue Are you the girl I'm thinkin' of Right in the middle of hate and love An iron fist in a velvet glove Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say Gotta step back And give each other room to grow Listen to your heart It'll tell you where to go I must admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say It's nothing I can't control But in matters of the heart and soul Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say Gotta step back And give each other room to grow Listen to your heart It'll tell you where to go I must admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know |

Airstream, big chrome airstream
Leave the world behind me They won't find me in my airstream Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Ocean, big blue ocean Rolling like a daydream Down the highway in my airstream Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Or my address, it's a place I've never been When it gets too familiar I'll be gone Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Or my address, it's a place I've never been When it gets too familiar I'll be gone When it gets too familiar I'll be gone When it gets too familiar I'll be gone |

Too bad, I don't get my own way
Want champagne, all they got is Cabernet and I'm wastin' all my time I feel good, but there's a tear in my eye Rain fallin' from a cloudless sky, I get high, forget about it all Red lights flashin' behind my cracked up rear-view mirror Thunder crashin' down, and screamin' in my ear I guess, I drew a bad card somewhere down the line And I never win my money all back, I'm only here for a limited time Probably see me hangin' around by the railroad tracks, I get high We used to have a house down by the shore Every night, we'd take a walk to the liquor store And we'd get wasted all the time, I hit the city, when I lost ya, girl Not so pretty, it's a different world, I get high, forget about it all Red lights flashin' behind my cracked up rear-view mirror Thunder crashin' down and screamin' in my ear I guess, I drew a bad card somewhere down the line And I never win my money all back, I'm only here for a limited time And then I got a bag to pack I'm goin' down, I'm goin' down I'm goin' down, I'm goin' down Too bad, I don't get my own way Maybe you and me can try to get together some day Because I'm wastin' all my time I feel good, but there's a tear in my eye Rain fallin' from a cloudless sky, I get high, forget about it all I get high, forget about it all I get high, forget about it all |

Well I spent all my money at the record store
Bought a copy of "Revolver" and some Gang of Four Singles going steady Billie Holliday They had it all on vinyl And I was blown away Then I walked around the corner to my favorite bar I do a lot more walkin' since I wrecked my car They all know my name here I feel right at home I just might spend the night here Since I know you're not alone And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right Well I wrote you a letter but I tore it up Then I wrote another letter and I tore it up Stare up at the ball game On the TV screen If you care to find me You'll know where I'll be And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right I'm down I'm down I'm down I'm down And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right And then they play that song I hate And I feel like I just can't win I'm breakin' down The room begins to spin I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right |

Rip out the trees and plant your flag
Now I know just where you stand Nature means nothing to you Something that you can't control And we make ourselves miserable Trying to fill the hole It's sad that our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore How was I supposed to know I was steppin' on your toes The momentum builds to a fever pitch Talkin' but I just can't hear Watchin' our problems multiply Wishin' they would disappear It's sad that our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore, anymore And our love got lost in the translation And when I see you out You're a stranger to me now You're a stranger to me now I, I wish I could talk to you I wish I could make you see How much I care How much you mean to me That our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore, anymore And our love got lost in the translation And when I see you out You're a stranger to me now You're a stranger to me now |

Took a ride up to Reno
Diamond star halo, lookin' around Pushin' blues at the station I feed the frustration that's kickin' around But you don't even know what day it is And you don't even know my name yet Baby, take a look at yourself Heaven sees what nobody else can see You'll be free someday Yeah, it's alright, it's just A matter of time 'til I find my feet You've got your education Know how to work you're persuasion You ain't foolin' me 'Cause you don't even know what day it is And you don't even know my name yet Baby, take a look at yourself Heaven sees what nobody else can see You'll be free someday You don't even know what day it is You don't even know my name yet Baby, take a look at yourself Heaven sees what nobody else can see You'll be free |

Oh Mexico
All the time Dreamin' all about Acapulco And a sweet thing on my mind Mogadishu sunrise Low above the sea All of those lawyers in California Won't bring her back to me Back to me Back to me Oh Mercenary Girl Of all the lowdown places in the world To be stuck inside of a phone booth Hangin' on the end of a line While this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind Oh Mary Mary I think you're fine 'Cause you can mix a margarita From a bottle of turpentine Just between noon and midnight That's when the battle rages on Mama I just gotta make one more call And I'll be here with you all night long All night long All night long Oh Mercenary Girl Of all the lowdown places in the world To be livin' in another city Comin' from another time I know it's a cold cruel world But you're eyes look soft and kind And this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind Oh Mercenary Girl Oh Mercenary Girl Oh Mercenary Girl Oh Mercenary Girl |

Long before I ever saw your face
I got to know you in a dream But things aren't always what they seem You learn along the way I just can't stop myself from breaking down It's just no good unless you come around I turn into a monster all my friends agree So goodnight, I'm goin' to bed I'm fallin' upstairs to meet you I wake up with memories in my head I'm someone else instead Fallin' upstairs to you You came to me from some secret place You're beautiful and strange to me Just like an antique melody Too sad for me to play I hope you'll wait for me behind closed eyes I know I'll search for you all through the night Till when the dawn breaks in and throws it's light around the room Goodnight, I'm going to bed I'm fallin' upstairs to meet you Ooh, I wake up with memories in my head I'm somewhere else instead Falling upstairs to you, fallin' upstairs to you |

I went walking through the red light
On the dark night in the winter Pretty girls in the window Pretty girls, staring back at me I went walking 'cross the St. Charles To the Argyle downtown Met my friends in the back there Know we always have a really good time And I feel so alive and I feel so free Always listening to our favorite songs They play them all night long They play them all night long I woke up with a girly Way too early, oh my head I went walkin' to the newsstand All the suits staring back at me Whatchu lookin' at? I went walking down Main Street Down to South Beach, oh I crawled I went looking for the bee sting And I feel so alive and I feel so free Always listening to our favorite songs They play them all night long They play them all night long <i>[?]</i> At the end of the world At the end of the world At the end of the world At the end of the world Will I see you again? Will I see you again? At the end of the world Take me home all the way, yeah Right, that's absolutely right |
