She looked at me
And the emptiness in her eyes was cruel to see Then she turned away and said, "Once I loved, but love is dead" And I whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping" She said, "I cannot cry And I cannot give or feel or even try" And her voice was hard and cold Then her sweet young face looked old And I whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping" Through the endless days and nights Could not help but wrap herself in sorrow (sorrow) Through the endless days and nights She waited for a shiny new tomorrow Love was sleeping, sleeping She looked at me And her smiling tears were warm and sweet and free And the moonlight kissed her eyes As it mingled with our sighs And she whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping" And she whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping" Only sleeping... |

La la la la
You're not only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy You're not the only choo-choo train that was left out in the rain The day after Santa came You're not the only cherry delight that was left out in the night And gave up without a fight You're not the only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy You're not the kind of girl to tell your mother The kind of company you keep I never told you not to love no other You must of dreamed it in your sleep You're not only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy You're not the only choo-choo train that was left out in the rain The day after Santa came You're not the only cherry delight that was left out in the night And gave up without a fight You're not the only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy you're not the kind of girl to tell your mother The kind of company you keep I never told you not to love no other You must of dreamed it in your sleep You're not only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy You're not the only choo-choo train that was left out in the rain The day after Santa came You're not the only cherry delight that was left out in the night And gave up without a fight You're not the only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy La la la la |

Girl, don't you know every time I see you smiling,
It hurts so bad, cause when I see you, I start crying, I've tried everything to stop, but there's no denying, That falling in love with you, girl, is just like dying. Oh, don't walk away, How, how can I make you stay? Don't turn away, I can still hear you saying those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through. Girl, don't you know we could work it out with talking? You won't look around or slow down your walking, I've given you everything with kiss to seal it, You had to get your kicks out of trying to steal it. Now, I'm standing here, Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears, But, all I can hear are those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through, ahh. Now, I'm standing here, Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears, But, all I can hear are those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through. Words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through.

Just a loud mouth Yankee I went down to Mexico.
I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so. There I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so. But I found myself a-thinkin' when the time had come to go... CHORUS: What am I doin' hangin' round? I should be on that train and gone. I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone, What am I doin' hangin' round? She took me to the garden just for a little walk. I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk. Then she told me that she loved me not with words but with a kiss. And like a fool I kept on thinkin' of a train I could not miss... CHORUS Well it's been a year or so, and I want to go back again. And if I get the money, well I'll ride the same old train. But I guess your chances come but once and boy I sure missed mine. And still I can't stop thinkin' when I hear some whistle cryin'.... CHORUS (repeat |

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song, They serenade the weekend squire Who just came out to mow his lawn. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Charcoal burning everywhere, Rows of houses that are all the same, And no one seems to care. See Mrs. Gray, she's proud today Because her roses are in bloom, And Mr. Green, he's so serene, He's got a TV in every room. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Here in Status Symbol Land, Mothers complain about how hard life is, And the kids just don't understand. Creature comfort goals, they only numb my soul, And make it hard for me to see. Ahhh...thoughts all seem to stray to places far away, I need a change of scenery. Ta ta ta ta, ta ta ta ta... Ta ta ta ta, ta ta ta ta... Another pleasant valley Sunday, Charcoal burning everywhere. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Here in Status Symbol Land. Another pleasant valley Sunday, (A pleasant valley Sunday) Another pleasant valley Sunday, (A pleasant valley Sunday) |

Darkened rolling figures move through
Prisms of no color Hand in hand, they walk the night But never know each other Passioned pastel neon lights Light up the jeweled traveller Who, lost in scenes of smoke filled dreams Find questions, but no answers Startled eyes that sometimes see Phantasmagoria splendor Pirouette down palsied paths With pennies for the vendor Salvation?s yours for just the time It takes to pay the dancer And once again such anxious men Find questions, but no answers The night has gone And taken it?s infractions While saddened eyes Hope there will be a next one Sahara signs look down upon A world that glitters glibly And mountain sides put arms around The unsuspecting city Second hands that minds have slowed Are moving even faster Toward bringing down someone who's found The questions, but no answers |

Sock it to me
Floatin' down the river With a saturated liver And I wish I could forgive her But I do believe she meant it When she told me to forget it And I bet she will regret it When they find me in the morning wet and drowned And the word gets 'round. Goin' down. Goin' down. Comin' up for air It's pretty stuffy down there I'd like to say I didn't care But I forgot to leave a note And it's so hard to stay afloat I'm soakin' wet without a boat And I knew I should have taken off my shoes It's front page news. Goin' down. Goin' down. I wish I had another drink It wouldn't be so hard to think Besides I got the picture straight She must have had another date I didn't need this extrra weight I wish that I could see my way to shore Don't want no more. Goin' down, I'm goin' down. And now I see the life I led I slept it all away in bed I should have learned how to swim instead And now it's really got me stumped I can't believe I really jumped I'd like to get my tummy pumped I can't believe they drink this stuff in town This dirty brown. Goin' down. Goin' down. I wished I'd looked before I leaped I didn't know it was so deep Been down so far I don't get wet Haven't touched the bottom yet This river scene is gettin' old I'm hungry, sleepy, wet and cold She told me to forget it nice I should have taken hr advice I only want to go on home I'd gladly leave that girl alone What a way to spend the night If I don't drown, I'll die of fright My pappy taught me how to float But I can't swim a single note He threw me in to teach me how I stayed there floatin' like a mama cow And now I've floated way downstream If I could find my way to shore I'd never, never do this anymore I'll give you three, I've been down nine I'm goin' down just one more time. Goin' down. Goin' down. Now the sky is gettin' light An everythng will be all right Think I finally got the knack Just floatin' here lazy on my back I never really liked that town I think I'll ride the river down Just movin' slow and floatin' free There's a river swinging under me. Waving back to the folks on shore I should have thought of this before I'm floatin' down to New Orleans Goin' to pick up on some swingin' scenes I know I'll know a better day I'll go down groovin' all the way. Goin' down. Goin' down. |
