24 and I'm almost over. Wasted when I try to be sober. Feeling down so you try to get fucked up. You're up but you're still down on your luck. Met a girl on the 4th of July,.
When I met you, you didn't want to meet me. When I kissed you, you didn't want to kiss me. When I left you, you didn't want to leave me. And now you just put me apart.
Lord, make me a lightnin' bolt to burn off this ring. Comin' down, comin' down. Lord, make me a skilsaw to cut through these chains. Comin' down, comin' down.
Goya and El Greco, Gaugin and Van Gogh. Painted light in the darkness, Chiaroscuro. Imagine we were a painting a woman and a man. Two lovers on a canvas, one is white, one is black.
Carmen, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I can go back. Carmen I'll never be never be never be the same again. Carmen. . The way you set the table.
Close my eyes at night. Who do I see. Standing right in front of me. Is it the one I try to forget. From my heart all my tears they flow. Never wanting to let you go.
I had everything I ever wanted in my life. Wasn't lookin' for nobody to be satisfied. Wasn't looking for a honey or a steady girl. 'Til I turned around the corner and you rocked my world.
Sitting, chilling, thinking about you, babe. You're like a long, cool glass of lemonade. Bitter, sweet and I want you so bad it hurts. You complete my life and you quench my thirst, sexy.
He's a cold hearted snake, girl, look into his eyes. Oh oh, he's been tellin' lies. He's a lover boy at play though, he don't play by rules. Oh oh, girl, don't play the fool, no.
Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel. And the storm is brewin in this heart of mine. This ain't no crazy dream, I know that its real. You're someone else's love now, you're not mine.
Up above me are the skies. Like the twinkle in your eyes. These things are the color of the blues. . In the mail your letter came. The ink and paper looked the same.
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.
Christmas time's a comin'. Christmas time's a comin'. Christmas time's a comin'. And I know I'm goin' home. . Snow flake's a-fallin'. My old heart's a callin'.
He sits all alone in his easy chair. Starin' back on all his lost yesterdays. Long before he encountered the bottle. And the demons that drove her away.
Bought a ticket to Seattle but I can't get to the plane. Everytime I leave you I keep running out of chain. I hunger for your love it never gives me any slack.
Raindrops fall from the sky. Teardrops fall from my eyes. Can't stop myself from lovin' you. Your heartaches found a home. I walk these streets alone.
Wake up in the morning. Start the coffee boiling. I can't get enough. . Throw the curtains open. Let the sun shine in. I can't get enough. . Well, I work real hard.
Cannons roared, in the valley they thundered. While the guns lit up the night. Then it rained and both sides wondered. Who is wrong and who is right. On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow.
One fine day these words I pray. Will breathe a truthWithin yourself upon a shelfA life anew. So many roads. It's hard to know what to do. All your dreamsAll it seems.
I remember walking with holes in our shoes. I remember we weren't the kind to make an excuse. I remember thinking we would break all the rules. Where are those children now? Where are those children now?.
