It was on a summer's evening
the air was still and calm I dove out to the highway where a traveler's soul belongs I could hear the highway crying that lonesome road did wail I took off for the horizon like I'd spent my life in jail like I'd been in jail I drove faster and faster the tires wuld not slow just one more mile then after it's homeward I will go it's back home I'll go then the darkness did surround me a cold fog settled in it was my eyes and the headlights who'd seen where we had been who knew where we'd been then the road rose up to meet me and gathered me in it's arms whispered to me sweetly I'll keep you safe from harm you'll never know harm leave your home leave your family leave them all behind there are golden fields and valleys the kind that poets rhyme run and tell my little sister her hair is flowing red tell her that I miss her and I'm anything but dead tell her i'm not dead ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By PATTY LARKIN <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

we are surrounded by so much water
that we might as well get a boat or we could swim like Neptune's daughters to the other side of the moat coming up for air rising to a very new somewhere coming up for air on the last breath around we are sleeping in a canyon where the walls rise up to the sky we could reach the rim by standing and begin to breathe with a sigh coming up for air rising to a very new somewhere coming up for air on the last breath around we are swaying like a willow that is weeping over the view we could wave goodbye and fly into the hills and into the blue coming up for air rising to a very new somewhere coming up for air on the last breath around on the last breath around on the last breath around |

I asked my love

He was not too hard to handle
So she gave him the kindness of her hand He had the smooth skin of a girl And he moved like water through the sand Out along the green fields He said I do she said I will Looking forward Headed for the coast of Brazil Through the eye of a curtained window She framed the portrait of her world She'd watch as the sun stood waiting She called herself a shadow of a girl Autumn kissed the summer She packed her things in the morning chill Left the lace in the window waving Headed for the coast of Brazil He lived the life of a beggar But he was born a banker's only son He was born an angel without wings To the lady of Spain in old San Juan Down at the harbor They held their breath and stood still Then they boarded a slow boat Headed for the coast of Brazil Pray for the faithful Pray for the dream that never rests Pray for the pilgrims Pray for the hope inside the breast Pray for the good ones Heaven never has it's fill Pray for the ones still waiting Headed for the coast of Brazil Pray for the ones still waiting Headed for the coast of Brazil |

I saw you
I saw you as you drove away You checked yourself You checked yourself in the rear view mirror And I thought I thought that you were looking at me The boulevard was dressed in a jogging suit All of those beautiful people and me and you Cup of joe you let go of a five dollar bill It don't make sense but some things never will My mom and dad bought a house for what he Bought that car So we tear him apart to try to figure out Who we are Walk down Venice Beach with some time to kill We don't fit in no place and we never will I trusted you I trusted you Poured my heart out like a friend But Great Garbo found out in the end Who's who Down at the diner the polished chrome still gleams And they turn and stare at you like you're A girl James Dean Conversation so cool that you catch a chill Where friends are fashion And fashion is a need to fill I trusted you I trusted you Poured my heart out like a friend But Greta Garbo found out in the end Who's who Drop me at the corner of 5th and bonvivant With the radio playing you can't always get what you want I watch you drive away like it's no big deal You won't see my wave and you never will I trusted you I trusted you But Greta Garbo found out in the end Who's who I trusted you I trusted you But Greta Garbo found out in the end Who's who |

Get off of your soapbox when you're
Talking to me Get off of your white horse and you're How it should be I want to show you my hands are strong And my hands want to tear you apart Tear you apart to prove that you are wrong And to take a look at your heart heart Turn off that constant noise baby You're gonna hurt someone You aim your mouth at me like you're Pointing a gun I want to show you my tongue is strong And my teeth want to tear you apart Tear you apart to prove that you are wrong And to take a look at your heart heart That's me I'm right behind you Making sure you never rest Four walls they do not hide you I see through your nakedness I want to show you my mind is strong And I've half a mind to tear you apart Tear you apart to prove that you are wrong You should take a look at your heart heart |

Don't stand in my way
Well I'm taking these legs for a spin 'round the block And I'm gonna look up all those friends I forgot Cause I know there's a laugh in my throat that got caught At a stoplight just down the street Don't stand in my way Well I know London Bridges are all falling down And it's gonna be hard to find a way across town But I'm gonna jump off this old merry-go-round And I'm flagging a taxi Don't listen the din rising behind you Look at life like a train wreck and one finds you Light a match and your fear of fire will Burn you down Don't stand in my way Gonna climb up and see if this table top spins Gonna haul out my old Red Accordion Cause you can't play a polka on ten violins Who cares if I don't know how Don't stand in my way Cause they don't make a scotch tape to patch up ths hole And if God didn't want us to he wouldn't have made rock 'n 'roll Better put on your coat cause it's sure gettin cold And we'll take it all outside Pay attention to the moon rising behind you Look at life like a tragedy and it will blind you I'll make a fool of myself maybe that will remind you how |
