When the night closes in. And the dark shadows fall. That's where it starts again. Evil making its call. . To someone who sits unaware. Could it be you, I'd beware.
I embrace a world of wrath. A path so grim and horrid, horrid. . No illusions, no god or goat. No dying worthless mimic weakness. . Written words without proof.
Let me say this one more time. Just in case you didn't hear it right. I'll put it in my own words. So I'll know it's understood. You sent me out on a limb.
by Nanci Griffith. You can cuss the daylights out of this pale winter moon. And we can ponder every reason why your true love was untrue. You can cry your eyes out, I've got a shoulder here for you.
The touch of your hand will let me know. You take me in and let me go. If not for love why would we meet. How is it done two into one so easily. . We're lifted up by angels.
I saw you on the avenue. You looked so tired and a little blue. You were in your Sunday best. With your father's tie upon your chest. (chorus). Hey, you always stood me still.
I went to Amsterdam. I got so lost down the way. I took the crooked path. I wish that I'd never stayed. I cannot change the past. Can I change, change the past?.
You can break them down. With your highs and lows. But she's familiar with the sound. The sound you make every time you go. . Always. Always she waits for you.
Well I was just a-thinkin' we could work it out. Maybe get around to take the trip down south. But she had had enough. . So I stormed out of the bedroom to the mornin' light.
Just beyond the stairs and the mailbox squares. There's an elevator up to you. And with each small stride. One story at time. My heart'll have some work to do.
Past tense. Woman. You still line my lungs. Floating. Face down. Left me here for dead. . And I can taste. Blood in my mouth. Exit wounds still fresh.
Okay, what is it tonight?. Please just tell me what the hell is wrong. Do you wanna eat? Do you wanna sleep? Do you wanna shout?. Just settle down, settle down, settle down.
I drive a cab in Brooklyn, I like my job okay. Nobody breathin' down my neck, I just drive around all day. I meet all kinds of people, I've got the gift of gab.
Here we go. . Loving you is wonderful. Something like a miracle. Rest assured I feel the same way you do. . Needing you isn't hard. With you I can let down my guard.
Le thermomètre affiche -7. Cette nuit il a encore gelé. Je resterais bien sous la couette. J'ai pas envie de me lever. . Métro boulot dodo. Commencer à me peser.
I met a girl in east L.A.. In floral shorts as sweet as may. . She sang in eights in two Barrio chords. We fell in love. But not in court. . La la la la la la (x6).
Tell me how. How I were you the one I confided in. I let into my life. You lied to me and you'll pay for, pay for. For all of the decisions you've made.
I've tried to tell you that I love you. So many times before. You never let me be a part of your life. If you only knew. . I've tried so hard to be someone that you want.
I'm not surprised,. cause I always knew there's just something about you that wasn't right.. . I wouldn't wanna be you, you threw it all away (away). It's too late.
