Blues Traveler - North Hollywood Shootout (2008) by Blues Traveler (보컬) on maniadb.com

And when the mighty sea is heaving
And the mountain's gotten big
What anyone believes in
I never gave a fig

But I could never fully handle
The heart that bore the load
Something never spoken
Something forever owed

Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
No I will never really be free
While you live in my memory

In awe and almost fearful
But I'll bet that you don't care
You're most likely thinking
About your brother still back there

Till I can bring him home
Till I can bring you home
I will never really be free
While you live in my memory

I can never have it taken
But I wanted you to know
That forever we're connected you and me
It doesn't matter where it goes
There are things we simply owe

Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home

Till I can bring you home
Till I can bring you home
No I will never really be free
While you live in my memory

No I will never really be free
While you...

Gonna get wild if it's ok
I don't need your blessing anyway
But I get crazy crazy sometimes
I just wanna warn you

So get out your camera, gather round
Gonna get to the rhythm gonna get on down
Bring your rock candy, bring Uncle Buck
Escape is in progress, care to try your luck?

Kick out the back door into whatever will drive
And cling to the shoulder till the night is alive
When you're lost in the wilderness you know you're there
And dust off your feet and put your hands in the air

And oh, it never rains
You and me and these two lanes
And oh, the endless skies
You and me and everything just flies

It don't mean much if it isn't fun
But since we're already on the run
It'd be crazy crazy even if we thought of stopping now

So settle your affairs and reap what you sow
Just reap it in the car cause we gots to go
Launching up the highway like a catapult
Don't you look back or you're a pillar of salt

So up jumped the devil got his hand to your ear
And he wants to say what you want to hear
With the pedal to the metal we're a kettle and pot
Running deep into the black ink given whatever we've got

And oh, it never rains
You and me and these two lanes
And oh, the endless skies
You and me and everything just flies

Now you can take it on faith from my boy bourgeois
Wild if it's ok
Don't you drive too fast cause it's against the law
Wild if it's ok

I get a little wild if it's ok
Because I can drive me one more day
Into this crazy crazy crazy crazy wide open world

And oh, it never rains
You and me and these two lanes
Oh, the open skies
You and me and everything just flies

You and me and everything
You and me and everything

She lies out on the grass
Her bellybutton fascinates me
If summer never came and went
I doubt that it would ever faze me

Broken in a moment of what once had been
I look within to see her face
My fingers start to reach to taste
But all they meet is my own lips

Time is fleeting
Time's a-wasting
And time is bleeding
Forever racing
And time is money
And money is time
But love does none of these
Love does none of these

She'll twirl and spin me 'round
And never let go of the hold she has
From heaven's rafter to the ground
And back and forth, and twice as fast

Transit in the blink of her big brown eyes
And all is right or wrong with the world
More the heart of me
Than as some would say "just some girl"

Time is fleeting
Time's a-wasting
Time is bleeding
Forever racing
And time is money
And money is time
But love does none of these
Love does none of these

But my heart beats as we say goodnight
Hoping for a kiss
And this feeling I get to keep
Love can most definitely let me do this

She's the only thing that shines
Among the murky gels of pink and blue
Club speakers make their noise
But they can't drown out what is true

Captured in the passion of an honest smile
And last call leaves us little else
I reach for her to make her turn
But all I meet is my own lips

Time is fleeting
Time's a-wasting
Time is bleeding
Forever racing
Time is money
And money is time
But love does none of these
Love does none of these

Love won't keep time
Love don't keep time

Feels like forever
I'm here whenever

Oh precious life
How you loved to lie to me
So recklessly fragile
So beyond my power to see
And yet so demanding
By making me believe
That I am standing
In the way of my own reprieve

That all our days are numbered
No matter the amount
There's a first and then at last
There is finally the fact
That the numerals just don't count
And all our time is borrowed
No deposit, no return
And no promise of tomorrow or the next day
What was lent you can never earn

If I took care of you
And loved you all your days
I'd still have to let you go
Cause nothing ever stays
You taught me to stand
And then you left the job to me
Now as a man
I'm finally forced to see

That all our days are numbered
No matter the amount
There's a first and then at last
There is finally the fact
That the numerals just don't count
And all our time is borrowed
No deposit, no return
And no promise of tomorrow or the next day
What was lent you can never earn
What was lent you can never earn
What was lent you can never earn
What was lent you can never earn

When our toasters finally come to kill us
A creator complex will fulfill us
Follow me down to the road ahead
Where we mean everything that we've ever said
Destination overload it can't be tamed
And nothing or no one is to blame

Sooner or later
We're all beacons of yesteryear
You've gotta love or hate us
We'll see you soon, baby, don't you fear

Put down your map son we're GPS'ing
The system don't know with who it's messing
Evolution crap shooter watch your scene
We're the proud parents of the big machine
Mutated strains like a frog to a toad
But ours comes with a bar code

Sooner or later
We're all beacons of yesteryear
You've gotta love or hate us
We'll see you soon, baby, don't you fear

Hickory, trickery, dickory dock
I need me a stronger faster clock
One that comes with wheels and a Bluetooth phone
God forbid I ever have to be alone

Sooner or later
We're all beacons of yesteryear
You've gotta love or hate us
We'll see you soon, baby, don't you fear

Sooner or later
We're all beacons of yesteryear
You've gotta love or hate us
We'll see you soon, baby, don't you fear

Never you mind at the storm, honey
Never you mind the lightning
Dawn gonna make the day warm, honey
Son gonna make the day bring

Hold you till it comes
Just water falling down
The orange in the sun
Never makes a sound

Never you mind at the noise, honey
The man in the moon and the stars
Are putting away all their toys, honey
The lightning back in their jars

Hold you till they're done
Just water falling down
The orange in the sun
Never makes a sound
As it shines
All around

Rise and awake in the morning, honey
Wash away sleep from your eye
Keep any dreams that you might have made, baby
Little one please don't you cry

Hold you till the dawn
Just water falling down
The orange in the sun
Never makes a sound
As it shines
All around

Take away all of the darkness, honey
Remove any nightmares power
Break any curse with me, won't you honey
By the light of the morning hour

Hold you till the dawn
Just water falling down
The orange in the sun
Never makes a sound

Every night has to end, honey
Every storm has to pass
You don't have to pretend, honey
That a tear in the rain has to last

Hold you till the dawn
Just water falling down
The orange in the sun
Never makes a sound

Sway with me for one more dance
And holding me closely meet my eyes
And I would ask for nothing more
I'm asking for another chance
To my own infinite surprise
I've never moved like this before

It only remains to say I love you
And I suppose I always will
And though I walk away
As I replay my better days
I'll not betray
What time can't heal or kill

A single instant of reprieve
I am no longer resembling
The man I was, I'm the man you see
Try to exhale in my relief
But I am also trembling
You brought the best hope out of me

It only remains to say I love you
And I suppose I always will
And though I walk away
As I replay my better days
I will not betray
What time can't heal or kill

Gently I stumble
To the music as it strums
The heavens all crumble
'Neath this moment we've become
My heart keeps calling me
Closer and stalling me
Catch me I'm falling
Though the dancing's long since done

If I'm in trouble; if I'm alone
If I'm a runaway, don't send me home
I want to be with you
If I saw you now would nothing change
Tell me to grow up or act my age
Like I always do
Maybe surrender another chance
Or only just give me one more dance

It only remains to say I love you
And I suppose I always will
And though I walk away
As I replay my better days
I will not betray
What time can't heal or kill

It only remains to say I love you
And I suppose I always will
And though I walk away
As I replay my better days
I will not betray
What time can't heal or kill

I will not betray
What time can't heal or kill

So I thought about my lifetime
How the days they are confused
As the moments they do roll by
Only some will follow you

They're the same every day
Think about what we do
If you take the time to look well
Any one of them could chase you

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

From out behind the shadows
Every moment I have known
Like catching that first firefly
In a jar when I was back home

Summer rain on windowpane
The way she looked that night
And every second after
Going to radiate the light

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

Looking at my photograph
Staring back 20 years ago
The man I am, the boy I was
The things I still don't know

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

No matter how you remember it
It'll find you soon
No matter how you remember it
That will be the truth

In the international rumble
She takes a chance and comes to me
And falling through the cracks we tumble
Not far at all but enough to see
We've come to rest our backs against the rubble
Of a future in uncertainty

"And I'm so glad you're here" she said
"And I hate that you're here" she said
"I wish I didn't need you so much
To be here"

It's funny meeting anyone this way
But there she goes
Walking her last runway
The queen of Sarajevo

We communicate in broken English
And nervous sighs and apprehension
As fascinated we are standing witness
No alcohol could quell the tension
No kind of clever joke or small talk in this
No fate denies our soul connection

"And I'm so glad you're here" she said
"And I hate that you're here" she said
"I wish I didn't need you so much
To be here"

It's funny meeting anyone this way
But there she goes
Walking her last runway
The queen of Sarajevo

They say that in the west the blues comes easy
And the night belongs to the one who plays
But it's the ancient souls that breathe them deeply
For the bluest heart is the one who stays

It's funny meeting anyone this way
But there she goes
Watch her walk her last runway
The queen of Sarajevo

And it's so funny to be living this way
But it's time to go
Leave you standing on the runway
The queen of Sarajevo
The queen of Sarajevo
