Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight And for each and every underdog soldier in the night And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far off corner flashed And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless seeking trail For the lonesome hearted lovers, with too personal a tale And for each unharmful gentle soul misplaced inside a jail And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing Starry-eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended And we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look Spellbound and swallowed 'til the tolling ended Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed For the countless confused, accused, misused, srung-out ones and worse And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |

Daytime just makes me feel lonely
At night I can only dream about you Girl you're on my mind Nearly all of the time It's so hard being here without you Words in my head keep repeating Things that you said when I was with you And I wonder is it true Do you feel the same way too It's so hard being here without you Being here without you Though I know it won't last I'll see you someday It seems as though that day will come never But there's one thing I'll swear Though you're far away I'll be thinking about you forever Streets that I walk on depress me Ones that were happy when I was with you Still with all the friends I know And with all the things I do It's so hard being here without you Being here without you |

But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun, Crying like a fire in the sun. Look out the saints are comin' through And it's all over now, Baby Blue. The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence. The empty-handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets. This sky, too, is folding under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home. All your reindeer armies, are all going home. The lover who just walked out your door Has taken all his blankets from the floor. The carpet, too, is moving under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you. Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you. The vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore. Strike another match, go start anew And it's all over now, Baby Blue. |

He was a friend of mine His killing had no purpose No reason, or rhyme He was a friend of mine He was in Dallas town He was in Dallas town Form a sixth floor window A gunner shot him down He died in Dallas town He never knew my name He never knew my name Though I never met him I knew him just the same Oh, he was a friend of mine |

If I need you, it's to me you're everything,
If I have you, if I love you just the same. If you're here, the night is rightly gone before. If you're gone, I'll see the daylight and that's all. If I stand on understanding what is now, If I ever need someone to show me how, If the daylight can be hidden by the sun, If you're gone, then I know I will need someone. If I love you, If I know how much I care, If I find the things you are then anywhere, If I know you, I may never know your name. If you're gone, then there is nothing that remains. |

Every time I see you smile, come to me, don't be long
Let me tell you how my heart goes wild. Please let me love you and it won't be wrong Every time you're in my arms, come to me , don't be long You know that I'll never do you no harm Please let me love you and it won't be wrong Chorus: Let me love you and then you'll see, come to me, come to me Let me show you once and we'll be free Please let me love you and it won't be wrong repeat first verse repeat chorus |

Lay down your weary tune, lay down
Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum Sruck by the sounds before the sun I knew the night had gone The morning breeze like a bugle blew Against the drums of dawn Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum The ocean wild like an organ played The seaweed wove its strands The crashin' waves like cymbals clashed Against the rocks and sands Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum The last of leaves fell from the trees And clung to a new love's breast The branches bare like a banjo played To the winds that listened best Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum |

Well I come from Alabama with a banjo on my kneee
And I'm going to Louisiana, Susannah for to see Oh Susannah now don't you cry for me Cause I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee Well it rained so hard the night I left, the weather it was dry And it was so hot I froze to death, Susannah don't you cry Oh Susannah now don't you cry for me Cause I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee |

How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I'd do things my way But little they know that it's so hard to find One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind For money can't buy back your youth when you're old Or a friend when you're lonely or a heart that's grown cold The wealthiest person is a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind Once I was living in fortune and fame I had all that I dreamed of to get a start in life's game Then suddenly it happened and I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind |

The first thing that I
heard you say when you were standing there said in your way was that you were not blind You were sure to make a fool of me 'cause there was nothing there that you could see that could go beyond your mind. Now who's standing at the door remembering the days before and asking please be kind It isn't how it was set up to be but I set you free this time I have never been so far out in front that I could ever ask for what I want and have it any time Knowing this you found the thought for me that told you just what I should be and there I stood behind.

To go up to my white walled room out on the end of time Where I can be with my love for she is all that is mine And she'll always be there my love don't care about time I laugh with her cry with her hold her close she is mine The way she tells me of her love and never is she trying She don't have to be assured of many good things to find And she'll always be there my love don't care about time Her eyes are dark and deep with love her hair hangs long and fine She walks with ease and all she sees is never wrong or right And with her arms around me tight I see her all in my mind And she'll always be there my love don't care about time And she'll always be there my love don't care about time |

Sitting all alone now I took my ticket to ride Just a matter of time now Til i'll be up in the sky. Coming up on me now I'm king for a night What's it gonna be now? How willful things are building insight Do you think it's really the trip that you seek? I've got my doubts it's happened to me. Artificial energy Is racing in my mind I've got a strange feeling I'm going to die before my time Cause i'm coming down off amphetamines And i'm in jail 'cause i killed the queen. |

People everywhere would laugh behind his back No one cared to take any time to find out What he was all about, fear kept them out Children laughed and played and didn't know his name They could tell when he was coming just the same Walking slow with old John's crippled wife by his side Then she sighed, then she died Magic words from him would charm some children's ears But they laughed at him when he hid behind his tears All in vain was no game for he'd lost an old friend In the end, in the end...

In nineteen and ninety-six we ventured to the moon
Onto the the Sea Of Crisis like children from the womb We journeyed cross the great wall plain beneath the mountain range and there we saw the pyramid, it looked so very strange This beacon had a field of force, that circled all around And not a man could get inside, no way could be found It was here for thousands of years before our life began Waiting very patiently for evolving man When the galaxy was young they looked upon the earth and saw that its position was promising for birth They searched for life but finding none they left a beacon bright Its signal had not been disturbed in the eternal light How wise they were to choose this place, they knew when we arrived That our atomic energy, we'd harnessed and survived I look out on the milky way for people of the dawn I know that they will come some day but will our wait be long?

The jury found the verdict first degree
They swore I planned her death to be I prayed they'd sentence me to die But they wanted me to live and I know why So I'd do life in prison for the wrongs I've done And I pray every night for death to come My life will be a burden every day If I could die, my pain might go away With trembling hands I killed my darling wife Because I loved her more than life My love for her will last a long, long time But I'd rather die than live to lose my mind And I'll do life in prison for the wrongs I've done And I pray every night for death to come My life will be a burden every day If I could die, my pain might go away If I could die, my pain might go away |

Nothing was delivered
And I tell this truth to you Not out of spite or anger But, simply because it's true Now you must provide some answers For what you sell has not been received And the sooner you come up with them The sooner you can leave Nothing is better, nothing is best Take care of your health and get plenty of rest Nothing was delivered Just what you had in mind When you made everybody pay Now I hope you won't object to this Giving back all of what you owe And the sooner you come up with them The sooner you can leave Nothing is better, nothing is best Take care of your health and get plenty of rest Nothing was delivered But I can't say I sympathise With what your fate is going to be Yes, for telling all those lies No, nothing was delivered Yes, and someone must explain That as long as it takes to do this Then that's how long you'll remain Nothing is better, nothing is best Take care of your health and get plenty of rest |

One hundred years from this day will the people still feel this way
Still say the things that they're saying right now Everyone said I'd hurt you, they said that I'd desert you If I go away, you know I'm gonna get back some how Nobody knows what kind of trouble we're in Nobody seems to think it'll all might happen again One hundred years from this time would anybody change their minds And find out one thing or two about life But people are always talking You know they're always talking Everybody's so wrong that I know it's gonna work out right Nobody knows what kind of trouble we're in Nobody seems to think it all might happen again |
