There’s a still in the street outside your window You’re keepin’ secrets on your pillow Let me inside, no cause for alarm I promise tonight not to do no harm I promise you baby,I won't be no harm And we're caught up in the crossfire A heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Watching your dress as you turn down the light I forget all about the storm outside Dark clouds roll their way over town Heartache and pain came pouring down like Chaos in the rain, yeah They're handing it out And we're caught up in the crossfire Heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Tell the devil that he can go back from where he came His fire he airs all through their beating vein. And when the hardest part is over we'll be here And our dreams will break the boundaries of our fears Boundaries of our fears Lay your body down(6x) Next to mine....
Look back in silence The cradle of your whole life There in the distance Losing its greatest pride Nothing is easy, nothing is sacred, why? Where did the bow break? It happened before your time And there were people there Lovely as you’d ever care Tonight, baby, you can start again Laughing in the open air Have yourself another dream Tonight, baby, we can start again Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Mother, it’s cold here Father, thy will be done Thunder and lightning are crashing down They got me on the run Direct me to the sun Redemption, keep my covers clean tonight Baby, we can start again Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own And the sun will shine again And the sun will shine again Are you looking for a sign? Or are you caught up in the lie? Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own
You let me in to your life unaware that there was magic and fire in the night And back then I was just a little boy I made mistakes that caused you so much pain All I know is that I’m older now
Some people think that it’s best to refrain from the conventions of old-fashioned love Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness They tell themselves that they’re too young to settle down Girl I promise you I’m older now
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me
I wasn’t looking when we built these walls When we spread my dreams at your feet Let’s not let times build the flood rise Before my thoughts begin to run I think I’m getting older now
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me
Can’t stand the thought of another,talking to you sweet my dear Where would I be tonight if you hadn’t held me here, in your arms?
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can’t roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you
Is there anyone out there? Somewhere I can belong Man the city just ain't so kind tonight I need a place to take refuge See I been loving you blind And I guess that made it hard for me to find Now we were caught up in the middle of a worn out dream I knew we were in trouble but baby I almost screamed When I saw you dancing On the moon now I watched him spin you round and round Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're flying away, while I'm stuck here on the ground Is there anyone out there? Somewhere I can belong Man the city just ain't so kind, tonight And if I had my suspicions I kept them out of my heart Just wished I would of known right from the start That you'd be speaking in riddles and you'd never confide You know I knew we were in trouble but honey I almost cried When I saw you dancing On the moon now I watched him spin you round and round Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're out on the wind and I'm still waiting to be found. You did a fine job of hiding That crooked ace up your sleeve You doubled down my direction You kiss me on the cheek and leave I followed you through the darkness I followed you through the cold Woman I can tell you one thing You're gonna wish you could go back and fold Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're flying away, while I'm stuck here on the ground Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're out on the wind and I'm still waiting to be found. Will I ever win? Only time can tell You got to suffer to remember how well That are our ideals never really marched in time That's the bottom line Jilted lovers and broken hearts
Daddy, I'm not gonna tell you that I'm sorry, But there aint nothin you can do to change my mind. I'm not here to know the things I cannot do, We've seen the outcome of the Boy's Who Didn't Fly. That road outside that you've been taking home forever, That'll be same road that I'll take when I depart. Those charcoal veins that hold this chosen land together May twist & turn but somewhere deep there is a heart.
Playing with fire You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight And you're out on a wire You know we're playing with fire
I see his calling as the channel of invention, I will not blush if others see it as a crime. However dangerous the road, however distant, These things won't compromise the will of the design. Ten thousand Demons hammer down with every footstep, Ten thousand Angels rush the wind against my back. The church of mine may not be recognised by steeple, That doesn't mean that I will walk without a God.
Oh well River of Truth, can you spare me a sip? The holy fountain of youth has been reduced to a drip. I've got this burning belief in Salvation and love It's not you make me naive, but if push comes to shove I will till this ground
You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight Oh woah oh woah woah (Out on a wire)
I might not get there. This little town, this little house, They seem to be leaning in the wrong direction I'm not afraid of you no more.
Playing with fire You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight And you're out on a wire You know we're playing with fire
Please don't tell me I can't make it It aint gonna do me any good And please don't offer me your modern method By fixing the carpets out of wood
From Nogales to Magdalena There are 60 miles of sacred road And the promise is made to those who venture San Francisco lift your load
In the land of old Sonora A shallow river valley cries The summer left her without forgiveness It's mirrored in her children's eyes
Prodigle sons and wayward daughters Carry mandalas that they made He delivered from the debts of darkness And born again by candlelight And born again my candlelight
Blisters on my feet Wooden rosary I fell them in my pocket as I ran
A bullet in the night A feather of his life San Francisco do you understand
Tell them that I've made the journey And tell them that my heart is true Not like his blessing or forgiveness Before the angels send it through
And I will know that I am clean know And I will dance and the band will play And the old
And if I should fall to temptation Will I return to evil throws From Nogales to Magdalena As a two time beggar I will go And I know I can't be forgiven the broken heart of Mexico
There’s a still in the street outside your window You’re keepin’ secrets on your pillow Let me inside, no cause for alarm I promise tonight not to do no harm I promise you baby,I won't be no harm And we're caught up in the crossfire A heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Watching your dress as you turn down the light I forget all about the storm outside Dark clouds roll their way over town Heartache and pain came pouring down like Chaos in the rain, yeah They're handing it out And we're caught up in the crossfire Heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down...

When the lights go down in the city, getting real low Settling in my room, I'm unnoticed When the still comes in through my window, letting me go I feel a calm, come over me, on the floor
On the floor Where the rats all come away clean There on the floor Where the children all stomped and screamed straight out the door Well I find myself on my knees Begging please
When the lights go down in the city and everyone goes, to their room Walking the trail to dreamland When the lights go down in the city, something is roaring I find myself waiting to believe
On the floor Where the mice call shots in the corner that's where I'll be When the crickets come home and sing their symphony Well I find myself on my knees Begging please
On the floor Facing the things I've done here on the floor Where the years have gathered and run that's where I'll be And I find myself on my knees Begging please
Seek out the light between Time and confusion glowing up ahead Instead of slipping through You bit off more, much more than you could chew
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
We had a lot to learn Table manners and grace, how to wait your turn when Time came to clear your slate You had too much, had too much on your plate
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
Take your medicine and crawl before you walk Think it through before you open you open your mouth to talk Be an advocate of joy Find your little heart's desire and
Follow it Whoa baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
(Baby you're not ready! )
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, now
(Slow down! )
No, no, no, no!
Don't be afraid, this is your year It's gonna be alright, you're a performer Just take your time, but not too much time
