I can't remember what I planned tomorrow
I can't remember when it's time to go When I look in the mirror Tracing lines with a pencil I remember what came before I wanted to think there was endless love Until I saw the light dim in your eyes In the dead of the night I found out Sometimes there's love that won't survive New York City Such a beautiful disease New York City Such a beautiful, Such a beautiful disease Laura kept all her disappointments Locked up in a box behind her closet door She pulled the blinds and listened to the thunder With no way out from the family store We all told her things could get better When you just say goodbye I'll lay awake one more night Caught in a vision I want to deny And did I mention the note that I found Taped to my locked front door It talked about no regrets As it slipped from my hand to the scuffed tile floor I rode the train for hours on end And watched the people pass me by It could be that it has no end Just an action junkie's lullaby New York City We were full of the stuff that every dream rested As if floating on a lumpy pillow sky Caught up in the whole illusion That dreams never pass us by Came to a tattooed conclusion That the big one was knocking on the door What started as a mass delusion Would take me far from the place I adore New York City |

I believe, you say
Don't think, we stay Drawn through the ebb Lost in the flower Beneath my breath, I confess My world, loved less The devil held the proof for me to know I could only fight for the longest while But with the truth out baby I belong to you I stoop, to find My place, entwined I took it to the bottom one more time I could only fight for the longest while But with the truth out baby I belong to you I could trip and I want you to know Very time I think that I think I should go I receive strange transmissions |

I couldn't make a change
I might have known you had found Another love I sat at home all night Bask in the lonely pale Of my bedstand light But through a tear in a curtain In a cheap motel I saw with jealous eyes You made the call to lie Deceptively yours I saw a black cloud I didn't hear a sound Only the shell on the ground There was a scream somewhere And in the thick night air I put the pedal down As the sirens wailed And I sat alone and prayed Not knowing what was to come But through a tear in a curtain In a cheap motel I saw with jealous eyes You made the call to lie Deceptively yours I tried not to believe Teh scene that I could see It felt like days passez by Before I truend away I felt a dizzy sway And the gun in my hand Stood before a judge He cleared his throat to say "I won't give you no bail" Schackled with chains or love I knew that I had bought My own coffin nails I hear your sweet voice calling out my name As I stare from a six foot cell And from beyond I heard the words Deceptively yours |

Heart of mine,
Be still You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill Don't let him know Don't let him know that you love him Oh, don't be a fool, don't be blind Heart of mine Heart of mine, Go back home You've got no reason to wander No reason to roam Don't let him see Don't let him see that you need him Oh, don't push yourself over the line Heart of mine (bridge) Heart of mine, Go back where you been The only trouble with you Is if you let him in Don't let him hear Don't let him hear where you're goin' Oh, I'm tired of ties that bind Heart of mine (bridge) Heart of mine, So malicious and so full of guile I give you an inch And you take a mile Don't let yourself fall Don't let yourself stumble Oh, do the time, don't do the crime Heart of mine Heart of mine Oh, oh, oh Heart of mine |

I walk down the diamond studded concrete canyon
Nobody looked me in the eye Tried to fly to the moon Only made it to the sky I was looking, looking for I couldn't find a friend Searching for a clear connection Without a digital send Ain't it just a little scary sometimes To find the lies that you know to be true I'll find you smiling about Things you don't have to do Bill doesn't call me anymore I hear he's found religion Big haired blonde apprentice beautician And all the words and gesticulations that came before Don't seem to mean a thing You can feel fine to drop a dime If you're ever hanging by a string Ain't it just a little scary sometimes To find the lies that you know to be true I'll find you smiling about Things you don't have to do I hear voices crying out Echoes on the boulevard Contentious rambling incantations Of some senile bard There's too much going on around here To keep my head from spinning And this constant acceleration Blurs any ties to the beginning Ain't it just a little scary sometimes To find the lies that you know to be true I'll find you smiling about Things you don't have to do |

I tried so hard my dear to show that
you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind, and melt your cold cold heart There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me And now I know your heart is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart |

Nightingale
Sing us a song Of a love that once belonged Nightingale Tell me your tale Was your journey far too long? Does it seem like I'm looking for an answer To a question I can't ask I don't know which way the feather falls Or if i should blow it to the left Nightingale Sing us a song Of a love that once belonged Nightingale Tell me your tale Was your journey far too long? All the voices that are spinnin' around me Trying to tell me what to say Can I fly right behind you And you can take me away All the voices that are spinnin' around me Trying to tell me what to say Can I fly right behind you And you can take me away |

One flight down
There's a song on low And your mind just picked up on the sound Now you know you're wrong Because it drifts like smoke And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know The reeds and brass have been weaving Leading into a single noteIn this place Where your arms unfold Here at last you see your ancient face Now you know Now you knowThe cadence rolls in broken Plays it over and then goesOne flight down There's a song on low And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know |

Spinning, laughing, dancing to
her favorite song A little girl with nothing wrong Is all aloneEyes wide open Always hoping for the sun And she'll sing her song to anyone that comes alongFragile as a leaf in autumn Just fallin' to the ground Without a soundCrooked little smile on her face Tells a tale of grace That's all her ownFragile as a leaf in autumn Just fallin' to the ground Without a soundSpinning, laughing, dancing to her favorite song She's a little girl with nothing wrong And she's all aloneA little girl with nothing wrong And she's all alone |

The sun just slipped its note below my door
And I can't hide beneath my sheets I've read the words before so now I know The time has come again for meAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over again Feelin' the same way all over again Singin' the same lines all over again No matter how much I pretendAnother day that I can't find my head My feet don't look they're my own I'll try and find the floor below to stand And I hope I reach it once againAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over again Feelin' the same way all over again Singin' the same lines all over again No matter how much I pretendSo many times I wonder where I've gone And how I found my way back in I'll look around awhile for something lost Maybe I'll find it in the endAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over again Feelin' the same way all over again Singin' the same lines all over again No matter how much I pretend |

Come away with me in the night
Come away with me And I will write you a song Come away with me on a bus Come away where they can′t tempt us With their lies I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So won′t you try to come Come away with me and we′ll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I′ll never stop loving you And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I′m safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me |

What am I to you
Tell me darling true To me you are the sea Fast as you can be And deep the shade of blue When you're feeling low To whom else do you go See I cry if you hurt I'd give you my last shirt Because I love you so there if my sky should fall Would you even call Opened up my heart I never want to part I'm giving you the ball When I look in your eyes I can feel the butterflies I love you when you're blue Tell me darlin true What am I to you well if my sky should fall Would you even call Opened up my heart Never wanna part I'm givin you the ball When I look in your eyes I can feel the butterflies Could you find a love in me Could you carve me in a tree Don't fill my heart with lies I will love you when you're blue Tell me darlin true What am I to you |

If I were a painter
I would paint my reverie If that's the only way for you to be with meWe'd be there together Just like we used to be Underneath the swirling skies for all to seeAnd I'm dreaming of a place Where I could see your face And I think my brush would take me there But only ...If I were a painter And could paint a memory I'd climb inside the swirling skies to be with you I'd climb inside the skies to be with you |

Lonestar where are you out tonight?
This feeling I'm trying to fight It's dark and I think that I would give anything For yout o shine down on me How far you are I just don't know The distance I'm willing to go I pick up a stone that I cast to the sky Hoping for some kind of sign Lonestar where are you out tonight? This feeling I'm trying to fight It's dark and I think that I would give anything For yout o shine down on me |

Lines on your face don't bother me
Down in my chair when you dance over me I can't help myself I've got to see you again Late in the night when I'm all alone And I look at the clock and I know you're not home I can't help myself I've got to see you again I could almost go there Just to watch you be seen I could almost go there Just to live in a dream But no I won't go for any of those things To not touch your skin is not why I sing I can't help myself I've got to see you again I could almost go there Just to watch you be seen I could almost go there Just to live in a dream No I won't go to share you with them But oh even though I know where you've been I can't help myself I've got to see you again I can't help myself I've got to see you again |

Bessie was more than just a friend of mine
We shared the good times and the bad Many years have since passed me by I still recall the best thing I ever had Now I'm going down the road to see Bessie Oooh... to see her soon I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith When I get there I'm a wondering what she'll do Now all the crazy things I had to try Well I tried them all and then some If you look you one day you will find out Where it is that your really coming from Now I'm going down the road to see Bessie Oooh... to see her soon I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith When I get there I'm a wondering what she'll do (Instrumental) Now in my day I've made some foolish moves But back then I didn't worry about a thing Now and again I still wonder to myself Was it the sweet love, or the way that she could sing I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Oooh... to see her soon I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith When I get there I'm a wondering what she'll do |
