And all of these chains; a sweet caress And all of my weight was tenderness Every time we had it put to bed Oh, the tables are turning 'round and I'm in it again
Now it's the ending of our second chance And there's no telling where we're gonna go Save what I was spending at the circus and Save everything I can before I'm blown away
Every time you had it put to bed The reason I initially believed I finally found someone certain and He left a flower inside of you Only for me to see
When I was walking by the blue water I was thinking about you By the water you can think forever By the water so deep and blue By the blue water.
When I was dreaming by the blue water I was dreaming about you Yes I dreamed we would love for ever By the water so deep and blue By the blue water
We gonna run. We gonna run away She's been lookin' at me She's been thinkin' 'bout nobody but me
When I was swimming in the blue water I remembered the truth You didn't want me to be your lover That's why the water is so deep and blue By the blue water.
I know I might have let you down I know it's hard to turn around But can't you just take one look at me Before you leave me dyin'? I know I might have done you wrong I might have taken all and left you none But do you blame me for living Honey nothin' lives forever I will carry you
Can you trust can you believe Life ain't what it made me to be I'm just a little shaken up I'm just a little lonely When you can't walk when you can't sleep 'Cause life get hard, things get bleak Just come my way knockin' Baby I ain't goin' nowhere I will carry you
I dreamed once of different streets A better place for you and me We were laughin' and talkin' Sunlight filled the room Now when I look behind your eyes No my dream it ain't a lie Or some story that we heard When no one else was listening I will carry you
If ever you are walkin' down the lonely street No one to lean on No one to help you on Cars and buildings so high Disparity so wide The only dreams we can see Are the ones on the TV
If you need somebody, If you need, If you grieve, I'm your sole salvation
The city is on fire Can't you see these streets emptied in ashes, witless made afraid made expatriates made youth of idle science and unbelief so far from my brother passin' down the street
As we walk through the streets of another Mayberry dead leaves blow Into the windows and crackle underneath our feet And as I look into the distance Streets and cars carry the sunshine Over the rainbow Into my back yard
Clotheslines, anthills and people Who think they work hard at life just because They never ever miss a day. They can tell you nothin' about everything And he's a good boy isn't he Wants to be just like everyone he loves
In another Mayberry you'll love the fashions All forgotten In another Mayberry the milk's gone rotten And all the wells have dried
Did we leave something behind The river there's a house The radio's playing but no one lives inside.
... It's just a memory of a dream I'll be with you once more under the stars ...
(Based on the poem "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae)
In Flanders Fields where the poppies blow Between the crosses row by row. To mark our places and in the sky The larks go bravely singing fly Scarce heard amongst the guns below
From Flanders Fields We will come running home From Flanders Fields We will rise up singing We will rise up.
We were together short days ago Breathed the air saw the sunset glow Loved and were loved but now we lie In Flanders Fields I hear her cry. In Flanders Fields I hear her cry.
From Flanders Fields We will come running home From Flanders Fields We will rise up singing We will rise up.
Take up your quarrel with the foe To you from flailing hands we throw The torch be yours so hold it high. We will not sleep though we lie. We will not sleep though we lie.
From Flanders Fields We will come running home From Flanders Fields We will rise up singing We will rise up.
Ah, soon she will wake When love is the air she breathes Hurry into her please Alight again And take what we reap A harvest abounding The trumpets are sounding A beautiful name From shadowlands we run A flicker and they're done Away And the wine that she keeps saving the best for me We're only blessed you see If we believed In something unseen Felt by remembering A wait, and a hoping in The time to receive From shadowlands we run A flicker and they're done Away The mountains will rock And crumble into the seas And all of the saints will be Marching home The cities will stop Oh, and they'll sell their kings Oh, and they'll kill their queens On no From shadowlands we run A flicker and they're done Away
(based on the play "Geography of a Horse Dreamer" by Sam Shepard)
Old man put down your bottle, go and tidy up your room the t.v. is broken. There ain't no room, there ain't no food. There ain't no air only cigarettes and it's time to tell us something
And he turns with his eyes wide open and bleedin' and cryin' tell us what did you see in the neon in the halflight did you dream us a number did you dream us a winner tell us what did you dream?
Don't pretend like you don't love us really you're a part of it all goin' bad and money you'll get a little maybe you can take a walk outside, breathe the air see what it's like to be alive.
And he turns and he wonders what city he is in in a motel on some highway with bruises on his skin in the neon in the halflight did you dream us a number did you dream us a winner, tell us what did you dream? and he turns and he smiles and he makes them wonder he say's I'll give you a number he say's I'll give you a dream It ain't Jersey it ain't Lilly it ain't no bloody mare or queen that keeps on comin' in to keep us in this hell that we're in.
She lives on the third floor. she has three children to feed. I'll give you her number, you can call her and ask her If she remembers me.
Won't you tell me in the morning Of the kisses that you left me in my sleep
Of all the thunder and the stormin' Of all the racket in the street
Chorus: And if the sun should open wide Your eyes to find another day And I'll never take you back If you can't find your own way
I want to tell you in the morning Of the demons that I killed in my dreams And should the devil take me now, here's a warnin' Ah, hell can't come between you and me
We keep each other in the air And from there we're afraid of falling down She don't believe I really care Oh, she'll be runnin' as soon as we reach the ground But her angel leads me on 'Til I find her lovin' arms
Just when I think it's safe to doubt I turn about and find I've been left behind There's only so long I can go without Like a fool I shout instead of cryin' But her angel leads me on 'Til I find her lovin' arms
A home sinking in the sand It hurts to understand where I went wrong So I'll believe with an empty hand I'll receive at last what I can't own But her angel leads me on 'Til I find her lovin' arms
Awaiting my treasure drifting ashore When from the galleys we're set free And I'll never give you more Than the time that we save Magdelina I forgave And I will feel everything
There are bridges burning here and we have to keep below Lest the guns should overtake us and let out the final blow A deserter I'll be hung, though ever battle I had won And I won't feel anything
Hey Magdelina, there is only now to lay aside All the bad dreams of your past have been lost in the fire Remember, soon I'll be back to bathe in your smile And touch a long time indeed
If the flower should lose her green And the cold never turn to spring Show me, show me where I'm imagining All the things I haven't learned to see Breaker, please... Oh, I lost my loving mind, and found it again If my mind should take me down below Black and white blood should lifeless flow Remind my heart that you're listening Break my neck and I'll hear you sing Breaker, please... Oh, I've lost my loving mind, and found it again In the universe without you and me Love carries on at twice the speed Blows behind us and wrecks everything Break my neck and I'm lost in the breeze Breaker, please...
She's running on clean power She's wound up at the hip "Wearing Only Flowers" came in 27 to 1 I'd love a drink of water Take a little kiss Find a lovely lady - step inside, take a sip
Atlanta turn around and love Will come back to you
His elements are shaking She's wounded at the wrist Person of the hour, the only way she knows how to make it I know I'll get over Two months maybe less I left undiscovered - saw her undress
Atlanta don't look so surprised We belong to life
After ten years taken Accidentally meetin' Realize we were mistaken Oh yes, we arrive late again Fix a little breakfast Time for gettin' married "Wearing Only Flowers" came in 27 to 1
Atlanta don't look so surprised Sometimes love will make you wise up Atlanta close your eyes and I will belong to you
Angry hands upon the wheel turn slow Without a star the water turns to stone Here I stand by lovely strategem When love is gone I'll invent again
Lady in Ashes, Forget her name Her beauty was matchless, her nature untame
And by now her face is far below Still beneath the desert rivers flow Take the sand in empty hand and then Blow away and bring her back again
And if you ask it, dear one plays again Her beauty was matchless, her nature untame
Deathless hand in land where devils roam who with a switchblade cut the head of hope It's time to exchange the evil, blow by blow Without a star the water turns to stone
If time is our master, then I'm lost again her beauty was matchless, her nature untame
I work on a wreckin' wall Just off the liquor tracks Onto the shaky ground Oh, I'm fallin' down Hey, I'm ridin'
A fool to confide Hey, Eddie watch your name Let that lady be your guide Oh, she's comin' round Hey, I'm flyin'
When the sleep gets in your eyes I'll be on Kensington Line And I'll run my hundred miles Hey, don't you follow me tonight
I didn't like the look I see Runnin' in the autumn leaves Hasn't got a brain or peeve Oh, the walls are closin' in Hey, I'm headed out of here Oh, I never meant to leave you cryin'
Turn around for something better Children give up don't you ever Remember that the devil's clever
Brother John, where are you, why are you sleeping? Brother John, why are you, where are you sleeping?
Take the light into your room Cast a candle on your doom Your master he is coming home soon
Brother John, how are you, why are you sleeping? Brother John, why are you, why are you sleeping?
May your awakening be near Heaven could be any place Why not here? Why not here? Why not here? Why not here?
Brother John, how are you, how are you sleeping? Brother John, how are you, how are you sleeping? Brother John, how are you, how are you sleeping? Brother John, how are you, why are you sleeping?
