Aren't you the girl who used to call me names?
Aren't you the girl who used to play at games? Weren't you the one who said she'd never fall? Now you're the one who's cryin' not so tall. Yes you're the one, Shall I throw you a crumb? Shall I come and pass you by? Would that make you want-a try? Shall I come and kiss your lips? Would that make your rain slip? Shall I come and dry your eyes? Will that make you realize? Oh I know what it's like. It's happened many times to me. Oh do you ache inside, Do your eyes want-a cry? Do you want me back again? Aren't you the girl who used to call me names? Aren't you the girl who used to play at games? Weren't you the one who used to run and hide? Now you're the one who's cryin' way inside. Oh I know what it's like. It's happened many times to me. Oh do you ache inside, Do your eyes want-a cry? Do you want me back again? |

Well I was born a blue melody
A little song my mama sang to me It was a blue melody Such a blue You've never seen There ain't no wealth That can buy my pride There ain't no pain That can cleanse my soul No just a blue melody Sailing far away from me One summer mornin' I was raised But I don't know One summer morning I was left But I don't know One summer morning So all alone Late in ev'ning I'll sing in your dreaming Down from the mountain Along with the breezes So close inside Love grew smiles So if you hear that blue melody Won't you please send it home to me It's just my Blue melody Callin' far away to me |

The singer cries for people's lies
He will sing for the day to bring him night The circus burns in carnival flame And for a while you won't know my name at all But sing and dance and love for pennies and gold The juggling clown smiles to me And every frown we agree is glad The nighttime comes to bring the bums From Bowery heat to Crimson Streets of wine But magic lands will never touch our sands Your children smile in single file They learn mistakes that others make They see although they cannot know The needs they'll need to have their greed grow wild But dance and sing for others bring the shame And for a while you won't know my name |

You caught me staring
So gently you tease me And turn away Unlike the young ones Your movements you savor Like a tango My hideaways Are longing For you You slyly conjure These moments surrounding Keep me tonight All your practiced ways You secretly Entice me Come here woman Like an old window I need a little shade Like an old tomcat Lord, I love to parade Like a broken old man Lord, I need sun Ah, I need you darlin' 'Cause I just ain't done I need you darlin' 'Cause I just ain't done While wheel waters set Now my blood yearns Your mouth opens woman Give me broken lies When you don't feel pain Let me smell your thighs, mama Let me drink down a little rain, man While we're drifting cold Out beyond the seas We wither time into a coil of fear |

The antique people are down in the dungeons
Run by machines and afraid of the tax Their heads in the grave and their hands on their eyes Hauling their hearts around circular tracks Pretending forever their masquerade towers Are not really riddled with widening cracks And I wave goodbye to iron And smile hello to the air O the new children dance -- I am young All around the balloons -- I will live Swaying by chance -- I am strong To the breeze from the moon -- I can give Painting the sky -- You the strange With the colors of sun -- Seed of day Freely they fly -- Feel the change As all become one -- Know the Way The velocity addicts explode on the highways Ignoring the journey and moving so fast Their nerves fall apart and they gasp but can't breathe They run from the cops of the skeleton past Petrified by tradition in a nightmare they stagger Into nowhere at all and they look up aghast And I wave goodbye to speed And smile hello to a rose O the new children play -- I am young Under the juniper trees -- I will live Sky blue or gray -- I am strong They continue at ease -- I can give Moving so slow -- You the strange That serenely they can -- Seed of day Gracefully grow -- Feel the change And yes still understand -- Know the Way The king and the queen in their castle of billboards Sleepwalk down the hallways dragging behind All their possessions and transient treasures As they go to worship the electronic shrine On which is playing the late late commercial In that hollowest house of the opulent blind And I wave goodbye to Mammon And smile hello to a stream O the new children buy -- I am young All the world for a song -- I will live Without a dime -- I am strong To which they belong -- I can give Nobody owns -- You the strange Anything anywhere -- Seed of day Everyone's grown -- Feel the change Up so big they can share -- Know the Way The vaudeville generals cavort on the stage And shatter their audience with submachine guns And Freedom and Violence the acrobat clowns Do a balancing act on the graves of our sons While the tapdancing Emperor sings "War is peace" And Love the Magician disappears in the fun And I wave goodbye to murder And smile hello to the rain O the new children can't -- I am young Tell a foe from a friend -- I will live Quick to enchant -- I am strong And so glad to extend -- I can give Handfuls of dawn -- You the strange To kaleidoscope men -- Seed of day Come from beyond -- Feel the change The Great Wall of Skin -- Know the Way The bloodless husbands are jesters who listen Like sheep to the shrieks and commands of their wives And the men who aren't men leave the women alone See them all faking love on a bed made of knives Afraid to discover or trust in their bodies And in secret divorce they will never survive And I wave goodbye to ashes And smile hello to a girl O the new children kiss -- I am young They are so proud to learn -- I will live Womanwood bliss -- I am strong And the manfire that burns -- I can give Knowing no fear -- You the strange They take off their clothes -- Seed of day Honest and clear - Feel the change As a river that flows - Know the Way The antique people are fading out slowly Like newspapers flaming in mind suicide Godless and sexless directionless loons Their sham sandcastles dissolve in the tide They put on their deathmasks and compromise daily The new children will live for the elders have died And I wave goodbye to America And smile hello to the world |

Only yesterday When I ran to catch you You disappeared And the street was gray The candle died Now you are gone For the flame was too bright Now you are gone I heard you laughing With your laugh of gold When I called out to you Silence returned And the air was cold The castle fell Now you are gone And no more rings the bell Now you are gone I found a letter On the day it rained When I tore it open There in my hands Only ash remained The castle fell Now you are gone And no more rings the bell Now you are gone I felt you breathing As I fell asleep When I reached out to touch you No one was there And the night was deep The candle died Now you are gone For the flame was too bright Now you are gone I saw you walking Only yesterday When I ran to catch you You disappeared And the street was gray The castle fell Now you are gone No more rings the bell Now you are gone |

Ooh, it's a happy time inside my mind
When a melody does find a rhyme And says to me, "I'm comin' home to stay I'm comin' home to stay, I'm comin' home to stay" Oh, now it's just the same old story Somethin' about love for glory A nickel and a dime, a dozen fame Oh, it's such a shame, the way they use your name Oh, but it's only mine to sing a song Hopin' that you'd cross along my way Before we have to move along Oh, now move along, oh, but we will get back again Oh, it's a happy time inside my mind When a melody does find a rhyme And says to me, "I'm comin' home to stay I'm comin' home to stay, I'm comin' home to stay" Oh, sleep late, my darling Let the mornin' sun warm your bed Sleep late, my darling Let the wind blow through your head Sleep late, my little girl |

Well I wish I was your sweet little honey man,
Just a hanging 'round the rising sun, You know you can't hold out against a boy who's A whiskey fast and a honey slow; I wish I was, I wish I was your, I wish I was your honey man, I wish I was your, sweet little honey man; And when the bee's inside the hive, You gonna holler in the thick of love, I'll buy you all the jag I can, This honey man's gonna' sting you again; A when I come a home to you honey, Oh, your little eyes never flicker, I wished I was that cool, And then your love just a wouldn't matter at all |

Sweet dreams of you darling Ah when we were sweet sixteen Mama makin' love in the belly of an old freight train Life was so simple and easy Oh the sun went down You took care of the children darlin' Then you felt like movin' away, Lord now you didn't stand and stare You felt like movin' and leavin' darlin' Didn't I treat you fair It's all right now darlin' It's alright now darlin' |

Summer princess, midnight maiden
When I first saw you I just breathed Into your smile my past went fadin' Inside your voice, my mind was sheathed In lost lagoon, we waited, wadin' Along the streets we went paradin' Never looking back to where we'd been Autumn temptress, sundown angel Inside your blood you aren't so young I came to you a loving vandal And heard your heart and touched your tongue Day became a lighted candle Sky fell down beneath your sandal In your eye I began to spin Winter harlot, moontime lover I can't speak when I feel this way Don't keep your feelings undercover Tell me what you want today Don't leave me in the air to hover Sing it out don't make me suffer Don't be ashamed love is no sin Springtime woman, sunrise girl I am hiding behind the sea Trick or treat, the Hallowe'en world Hide and seek but you can't catch me I won't chase you until you hurl Your wing to me, and make me twirl You're alive underneath my skin |

I had a talk with my woman late last night
And she reassured me everything was alright And time hung still like a falling rain Now I know at last that my love is safe Ah, but when I go away my love I leave Lord I'm but half a man, without her by my side She's this memory that I hold all around She's this dream that I always hold to believe I wanna go upon a mountain, oh, Lord And sing my love, and sing my love I wanna sing it high, sing it down low Then I'm gonna know how long it's gonna last Then I'm gonna know how long it's gonna last Well, you know your Moses, oh Lord he lost his way Ah, and Your Jesus don't remember the words Well, then I guess it's just you and me brother All alone in this cold world, all alone in this cold world Ah, you gotta go upon on mountain And learn to sing your love, learn to sing your love You know I can sing it high, sing it down low Then we gonna know how long it's gonna last Then we gonna know how long she's gonna last Hard rain, sweet rain, fall a little while longer Wash down the city skies, Lord bring the streets alive Make it like it was long before I was born You know I wanna walk around |

Here I am tryin' to find your love again Here I am down on my knees again Prayin' for a love that we used to know Both of us know how hard it is To love and let it go Both of us know how hard it is To go on living that way When so few understand what it means To fall in love And so few'll know how hard it is To live without it Lord, I must have been blind Lord, I must have been blind Lord, I must have been blind To hold something real and not believe it To live in her life and never trustin' To give all you know and never feel it To hold back each day, until it dies away Both of us know how hard it is To love and let it go And both of us know how hard it is To go on living that way When so few understand what it means To fall in love So few know how hard it is To live without it Lord, I must have been blind Lord, I must have been blind Lord, I must have been blind Yes, I must have been blind |

O I never asked to be your mountain
I never asked to fly Remember when you came to me And told me of his lies You didn't understand my love You don't know why I try And the rain was falling on that day And damn the reason why The flying pisces sails for time And tells me of my child Wrapped in bitter tales and heartache He begs for just a smile O he never asked to be her mountain He never asked to fly And through his eye he comes his love And tells her not to cry She says, "your scoundrel father flies With a dancer called a queen And with her stolen cards he plays And laughs, but never wins" O the child dreams to be his hands In the counting of the rain But only barren breasts he feels For her milk will never drain As I die I can't remember Where I saw the rain: Could it be that her laughter Drove me down again? Charming dancer will you stop, Stop and talk to me? Is there someone else you feel In your dreams? you will, you see: In midnight gazes I've found you far from me: If you lead me on Please leave me down O flying flying fish Please flutter by my door: Yes you can drink my lies If first you read my eyes: Each one is titled "i'm drowning back to you": I can't swim your waters And you can't walk my lands: I'm sailing all my sins And I'm climbing all my fears And soon now I'll fly O I never asked to be your mountain I never asked to fly Remember when you came to me And told me of his lies You didn't understand my love You don't know why I try And the rain was falling on that day And that's the reason why Sweet lover, will you come back And love me for a while? Please take my hand Leave all your fears behind I've been gone too long Now I'm home to stay Please don't leave me Again this way Please come home |

Now the sun
Sits on my hand Oh, where Are you? Walking the wind I fly above The shore of the town To the hills Where I can hear The harbor bells Ring slavery Where the fortune teller sighs to me Oh, I see your woman in the raw Ride A mare of stone And howl I woke up While morning built The world With light Crossing their hearts Twelve sailor boys All stood in a ring 'Round our bed Out of the grass A dancer rose Shivering Oh, the sailor's pointing Out to sea And the dancer diving Up the sky Sing 'Til we forgot The day |

It happens every time.
Give my love, She leaves me behind. It happens every time. The sorrow makes me lose my mind. If she'd only be as true as I am, And listen to my love that's sayin', Oh baby won't you stay mine Your lovin' makes me feel so fine And someday baby you'll find My love was gentle and kind. Someday you'll know that leaving me was wrong. But don't bother all that time is gone. And it happens every time. Now I know it's not worth the tryin' So baby don't turn around Let my tears fall to the ground. If she'd only be as true as I am, And listen to my love that's sayin', Oh Oh Oh Oh.... |

Somewhere old memories
Echoed from the street in a crying hole Just a song from long ago When I lost my easy gods to the Harlem insect laws I heard your baited moans And the passing cars and the swirling Songs and the black man's bones Through the walls and the stalls and the cackling calls You were there You were an island behind the sun Yes, an island Where my love could live and life breathes From deep inside Deep, deep, deep, deep inside Mama Lie, I love you like a jungle fire |

In the vulgar cold The dead airport lay By the pebbles of the highway Through the snail clouds You soared to your lover I hurried away my darling With a howl in my throat Hiding inside the weeds In the orange grove The black rooster crowed Through the hollow of the midnight With my shot blood With stains on my fingers I run with the damned, my darling They have taught me to laugh To laugh, to laugh |

I lit my purest candle close to my
Window, hoping it would catch the eye Of any vagabond who passed it by, And I waited in my fleeting house Before he came I felt him drawing near; As he neared I felt the ancient fear That he had come to wound my door and jeer, And I waited in my fleeting house "Tell me stories," I called to the Hobo; "Stories of cold," I smiled at the Hobo; "Stories of old," I knelt to the Hobo; And he stood before my fleeting house "No," said the Hobo, "No more tales of time; Don't ask me now to wash away the grime; I can't come in 'cause it's too high a climb," And he walked away from my fleeting house "Then you be damned!" I screamed to the Hobo; "Leave me alone," I wept to the Hobo; "Turn into stone," I knelt to the Hobo; And he walked away from my fleeting house |

Photographs of guns and flame
Scarlet skull and distant game Bayonet and jungle grin Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men Lookouts tremble on the shore But no man can find the war Tape recorders echo scream Orders fly like bullet stream Drums and cannons laugh aloud Whistles come from ashen shroud Leaders damn the world and roar But no man can find the war Is the war across the sea? Is the war behind the sky? Have you each and all gone blind Is the war inside your mind? Humans weep at human death All the talkers lose their breath Movies paint a chaos tale Singers see and poets wail All the world knows the score But no man can find the war |

Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you Once I was a hunter And I brought home fresh meat for you Once I was a lover And I searched behind your eyes for you And soon there'll be another To tell you I was just a lie But sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever remember me? Though you have forgotten All of our rubbish dreams I find myself searching Through the ashes of our ruins For the days when we smiled And the hours that ran wild With the magic of our eyes And the silence of our words And sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever, ever, ever remember me? Ever remember me |
