I've been chasing ghosts and I don't like it
I wish someone would show me where to draw the line I'd lay down my sword if you would take it And tell everyone back home I'm doing fine I was with you down in Acapulco Trading clothing for some wine Smelling like an old adobe woman Or a William Burroughs playing for lost time I was thinking about my mother I was thinking about what's mine I was living my life like a Hollywood But I was dying on the vine Who could sleep through all that noisy chatter The troops, the celebrations in the sun The authorities say my papers are all in order And if I wasn't such a coward I would run I'll see you me when all the shooting's over Meet me on the other side of town Yes, you can bring all your friends along for protection It's always nice to have them hanging around I was thinking about my mother I was thinking about what's mine I was living my life like a Hollywood But I was dying, dying on the vine |

Your mailbox is always empty
And your landlord always complains And you try to forget your past But it's just adding to your pain And it's time for one more cigarette Yes, I slept on your satin pillows They felt like a second skin You needn't have looked so helpless there I was the moth stuck on your pin Sleeping, I am the sleeper Sleeping, I am the sleeper Oh it used to feel so right Everything seemed new I haven't changed It isn't me that's what's wrong with you Sleeping, I am the sleeper The sun came up and you'd come back The door was open wide I should have slammed it in your face I should have shot you in the back That's what Jesus would have done If Satan had come And looked him in the eye and said "You're my kind of guy, why don't you come away with me? Come away with me" Cause I love you, I love ya, I love ya - that's what she said I love ya, love ya I'd rather speak to Satan himself I love you, I love you, I love you I love you, I'm the sleeper |

Oh you think you got a gypsy smile
But it won't get you out of trouble this time All you ever had is the memory And the rose that you keep for company Anyone could have cracked the code Anybody could have cracked that code So touch up your makeup And save up all your pride You once made everyone your lover And I bet you felt just like a bride While they were talking in some foreign tongue You were parading around like a beggar in an iron lung Cause something must be breaking your heart Yes something is breaking your heart That I loved like a vigilante lover That I loved like a vigilante fool The air was heavy over the village square It's not everyday they auction off despair There were voices floating in that country air And secret policemen watching everywhere Anyone could have cracked the code Anyone could have cracked that code I drive a stolen car I got a monkey jar That makes the blood run cold And I see through windows And I hear through walls But nothing you can do can touch me at all But I wouldn't feel so forlorn There must be some saving grace I hear the Rosy Christians have just hit town And they're all heading for your place Cause something is breaking your heart Something is breaking your heart I hope something is I loved you like a vigilante lover I loved you like a vigilante fool |

I roamed the world for love and glory
Full-time ambassador of mirth I never thought that I'd be sorry To squander most of my true worth The sun beats down on the valley The waves crash on the shore I was a soldier of the alley I cannot fight there anymore So now I just wait for the hour Lips parted like a kiss I just assume there is a power Who can deliver me from this The sun beats down on the valley The waves crash on the shore I was a soldier of the alley I cannot fight there anymore They say that love is like a flower That bows so graceful to the light But I've seen most true love go sour Then blossom in the dead of night I can't be certain of the hour Or who will bear that final kiss I must assume there is a power Who can deliver me from this The sun beats down on the valley The waves crash on the shore I was a soldier of the alley I cannot fight there anymore To roam the world for love and glory To roam the world at all Who would have thought that I'd be sorry To squander it all The sun beats down on the valley The waves push up against the shore I was a soldier on the alley I cannot fight there anymore |

Well they say that every dog has his day
But puppy love was never really my way Hear your voice - am I asleep or awake? Since you're gone Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow Where to go? should I just stay here or run? If I'd wings I'd aim them straight for the sun Who to call? or should I just take a walk Little words add up to small talk Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow Love is fickle, love is true You can count on memories They linger on, love never stays Here she comes full of white light and heat With a walk that'd stop the cars in the street Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow Love that's here today - fade away tomorrow |
