Sally I still have the green skirt you gave me
And Sally I still do believe you could save me 'Cause I wander around and the world is so strange I'm here on the ground and all of my dreams just fly away Sally it's only September But Sally we've both come a lifetime since May And it's lines and it's rhymes that I can remember But I always forget what I wanted to say 'Cause everything's changed, deep in my heart Love's rearranged, where do I start, where do I start? I will, I can, I do, again I will, I can, I do, again Sally you'll have another sweet baby Sally I'll write another ten songs And we'll keep looking back at the paths we've not taken Both of us still wondering where we belong 'Cause everything's changed and so we start Love comes again, and there go our hearts, there go our hearts I will, I can, I do, again I will, I can, I do, again I will, I can, I do, again Sally I still have the green skirt you gave me And Sally I still do believe you could save me. |

I can tell, by the way you're pushing crumbs around the table
You're not listening to me And you say, that you have come as far as you are able But you're not far from the tree And you say, you're OK, but you live your life like it's over And you say, you're OK, but you live your life like it's over In your dreams, all your passion is like liquid fire You trail your fingers find the spark And you see your face reflected in the silver spirals, But then it burns down in the dark. And you say, you're OK, but you live your life like it's over And you say, you're OK, but you live your life like it's over And all the things you ever tried to tell me, Somehow don't apply to you You're the one evading hope, side-stepping every inkling That the good guy, the early bird, the one who tries, the one who tries Again WINS And you say you're ok, but you live your life like it's over And you say, you're ok but you live your life like it's over.... |

I'll wear the red dress tonight
You will reel your heart in tight You can have the upper hand and I'll pretend to understand Why, it came to this How it came from there to here How we muddied what seemed clear Were we just doomed from the start Undermined by simple hearts Why'd it come to this [Chorus: ] Come down in silence, come down in fear Come down in pieces Come down in tears Well there are days when the light hits true Days of him days of you Nights of sweating, toss and turn Nights I feel your cigarette burn Why'd it come to this As we take our places in this charade If the sun's too hot, well then sit in the shade Jury's still out so we make lemonade and say Why'd it come to this [Chorus: ] Well, we all get what we deserve I get him and you get her Given the chance I still defer And maybe we will always wonder Why, it came to this So I'll wear the red dress tonight You will reel your heart in tight I will have the upper hand and You will finally understand Why, it came to this (Repeat 3X) |

Mother, mother, you're not listening any more
I am still the little boy with his height notched on the door And it seems that my life has not turned out cut and dry And it should have been love, love that showed you why You cannot deny, you cannot deny me now Father, father you are making a big mistake I am not a shiny trophy, or another call that you forgot to make And I have listened very closely to every word you have not tried And it should have been love, love that showed you why You cannot deny, you cannot deny me now Oh my Lord, why's it taken you so long? To give me grace and the dignity to right these wrongs I will lead today, and I will follow you tomorrow When the gloaming of my life, brings the promise of a peaceful night And there's just one thing that I need to know That you will not deny, you will not deny me now |

if i gave you the sky
if i laid down my life would you believe me then? if i promised to change if i carried the blame would you believe me then? could you see it like me and believe what i see could you listen, and remember that i love you only, because i told you, because i told you so. if you told me you lied but i stayed true and tried would you believe me then? and if your beauty was gone but my love lingered on would you believe me then? could you see it like me and believe what i see could you listen and remember that i love you only, because i told you, because i told you so. you take the wheel for now i'm too tired to drive this one home anyhow, for now and when you mention my name let this one thing remain, my love, believe me now. |

We pinned the tail on Jonny Polanski
And asked mother may I, and she said I was it And nothing mattered, nothing but the moment Some days made perfect sense, some days never fit But there was room in my heart for you Room in my heart for you We captured the flag in our own foreign countries And took each other prisoner bit by bit We take no prisoners now, in this sullen landscape Just ask for forgiveness, and hang on to our wits But there's room in my heart for you Room in my heart for you I am hard wired, fully detonated You pull the pin and you can't put it back It's a crash course, fully consummated Cuz I was aimed from birth to break off from the pack But there's room in my heart for you Room in my heart for you So here's what I keep, here's what I carry The sweetest intentions, love in the remains Here's what's strange, and what's extraordinary Nothing changes, but nothing stays the same And there's room in my heart for you Room in my heart for you So here's what I keep, here's what I carry The sweetest of intentions, love in the remains Here's what's strange, and what's extraordinary Nothing ever changes, but nothing stays the same Cuz I know your secrets, I have tasted their fruit I have known the flash of her teeth in the dark And you thought that I wouldn't notice, and you thought that I would not follow suit Or the song in your soul or your heart...... |

I bottled up my hope, before it got spread too thin
I threw it in the ocean and then I jumped right in All my heroes disappeared just like deja vu But I am a strong swimmer and I swam right into you Now there's evidence I've been here, but no one knows how long My change is in your pocket, and the whisper of my song My clothes are in your closet and my books surround your bed I wonder what you expected, and what you got instead, What you got... Cuz I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it, I like it, I like it My friends all think they've lost me, my family's up in arms But no one ever noticed 'til I sounded the alarm There's danger in complacency and comfort in the fight For the way that you whisper in the sweetness of the night The sweetness of the night Cuz I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it, I like it, I like it Where there is ruin there is hope for treasure Out of the ashes come comfort and pleasure This is the love that no one can measure I have you, I hold you We are birds of a feather I bottled up my hope, before it got spread too thin I threw it in the ocean and then I jumped right in All my heroes disappeared, just like deja vu But I am a strong swimmer and I swam right into you The steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see And I like it, I like it, I like it |

I never knew what enough was
Until I'd had more than my share Then I let the darkness in It was then I lost the dare It was then I lost the day There will be no prayers on your return And there will be no party thrown And you will find your inheritance Is the silence that's grown It is the seed that you've sown 'Cause you were the one sure thing The one sure thing Maybe I'm not crazy, just inconsolable Inconsolable There is no mystery to be revealed And so we tell the truth and then run I love you because I love you And I did think that you were the one But now I see who you've become 'Cause you were the one sure thing The one sure thing Maybe I'm not crazy, just inconsolable Inconsolable |

There never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now
There never was a love that I could not replace until now Winter was hard, we came out with our hearts frozen through Now we're holding our breath, and I'm trying to hold on to you What was it that you wanted that I didn't understand The Boomerang of expectation's back to bite the hand I give my love to you And you, you walk away too soon A landmine doesn't take much to trigger the blast You could feel along my faults and defenses at last Someday you'll dismantle the colored wires Yellow, green or red, is it love or desire You can face me now or you can shrug and act surprised Either way someday you'll see yourself reflected in my eyes I give my love to you And you, so brave, sing "heroes" when you're all alone You balk at what you should have known, You've got nothing to lose, but me You lose me, love me, choose me There never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now There never was a love that I could not replace until now But I, I give my love to you And you, you walk away too soon I, I give my love to you And you, so brave, Sing "Heroes" when you're all alone, You balk at what you should've known You've got nothing to lose, but me You lose me, love me, choose me |

So this is how it feels to be happy, to find real true love
To be wanted, to be real We throw away the rest of the past, every small broken thing We find new things that will last And everything's the same but my name And I have everything I wanted For a change I'm not ashamed And I have everything I wanted It's another gorgeous day in Miami, I am missing you Can you hear me, are you real Never home for long we are passing in our dreams at night But we send signals we can feel And everything's the same but my name And I have everything I wanted For a change, I'm not ashamed And I have everything I wanted We make do, we get by We don't know how or why We lose track, were we happy? Would we take anything back? If we could, Would we try? And every single day I am grateful, I hold my heart in my hands And I love you, this is real 'Cause everything's the same but my name And I have everything I wanted For a change I'm not ashamed And I have everything I wanted Not to blame, not ashamed, everything I wanted |

I am walking past the sprinklers and the newly painted porches And the lemonade stand girls on a suburban afternoon I am leaving cuz I love you, I am leaving cuz I don't And I am hoping you will follow, and I'm praying that you won't Let me go I am captive in your presence I will melt before your eyes But I still crave your approval, and I'm helpless when you criticize, criticize Cuz it's written on your body -- it's on the tip of your tongue The look in your eyes, in the glare of the sun The touch of your cold fingers, when you say goodbye The way that you linger The way that you lie You saw me through the keyhole of a door that I kept locked But I'd decorate the threshold just in case you knocked What I might feel on the edges you will never come to know And who I might be in the corners I will never ever ever ever show Never show Cuz it's written on my body -- it's on the tip of my tongue The look in my eyes, in the glare of the sun The touch of my cold fingers, when I say goodbye The way that I linger The way that I lie Who said that love would linger who said that love would last When we cannot seize the moment and we will not leave the past I don't think I was afraid of you but how could I be sure When with every altercation you were showing me the door Well here I go, here I go, here I go... Cuz it's written on our bodies -- it's on the tip of our tongues The look in our eyes, in the glare of the sun The touch of our cold fingers, when we say goodbye The way that we linger The way that we lie The touch of your fingers The look in your eyes The way we accuse The way we deny |

> Where'd you get that dress?
Where'd you learn to walk like that? Don't talk back Tell me where you've been - maybe I don't want to know Oh, Lord, why me? You were so much, so much mine, now I reach for you and I cannot find you So much, so much mine, now I reach for you and I cannot find you So much mine So much mine So much mine You know you've got my hands, and you've got your father's eyes - lovely, bold eyes I know that it's not fair, but things aren't always what they seem - and now I worry so - Where you'll lay your head, where you'll sleep tonight, Way up high, why, oh why can't I Someone's pillow's cold, someone loved you so, And bluebirds sang, "There's no place like home" (They sang) Where's the heart in me that made the one in you so cold, Please don't go 'Cause I know where you got that dress, I know where you learned to walk like that 'Cause you were so much, so much mine now I reach for you and I cannot find you So much, so much mine now I reach for you and I cannot find you (Where you'll lay your head, where you'll sleep tonight, Way up high, why, oh why can't I Someone's pillow's cold, someone loved you so, And bluebirds sang, "There's no place like home" They sang) So much mine So much mine So much mine So much mine, so much mine ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By J.

It's that I leap and then I look
At all the chances that I took Feel the air, miss the catch Then I have to swing back My timing's all wrong And the ladder is gone And all I can do, is Swing 'til it's all net below All I can do, is Swing 'til it's all net below And I can let go I am not faint of heart But I get weak in the knees I am tired for the world For the wind in the trees But we'll still find the song Though the ladder is gone It's all we can do, is Swing 'til it's all net below Swing 'til it's all net below And we can let go And I'll still look you in the eye It's the longest goodbye I'll feel the air, make the catch But I won't swing back My timing is clear And I'll never fear I'll swing 'til there's no net below Yeah, I'll swing 'til there's no net below |
