Guys in rides with their future brides. Stopping for a light in a child's line of sight. On the hubcap TV set overhead a Pan Am jet. Engine level heat waves.
Chorus. Slowly burning. The slow burn of this planet's turning. Here we are praying to the dog star. In god's we've trusted. All the meanings of our lives.
I'm not what you think I am. I'm anything but the picture you've taken. If I decide to touch the sky. Don't bring me down. It's hard enough. . I recognize.
DON'T TAKE THE LIGHT AWAY Joyce Ejiogu. . Refrain:. Don't take the light away,. 'Cos you need to follow wherever it leads. Don't take the light away. There's someone waiting to share with you..
DON'T BE AFRAID Joyce Ejiogu. . Verse 1:. Take me high, to the hills and the mountains. Into the sky, so that I can hear you. So take me high, over seas and the oceans.
I've been walking through this wasteland for days. But it feels like forever.. We both knew this would getter harder before it gets easier.. This what made us feel alive. Can we make it through tonight?.
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?. You been out ridin' fences for so long now. Oh, you're a hard one. But I know that you got your reasons.
Nobody rocks 'em up like Dujour. Dujour. Ride on your motor bike with Dujour. Dujour. . Kicking it in the pants with Dujour. Hanging round the world. We wish you could be friends.
Outside of Albuquerque, 'bout an hour North of there. She's got a house full of three little Indians. In the middle of nowhere. . You wonder where her man went, you wonder if she minds.
A cigarette burns itself out in a crushed up co'cola can ashtray. In front of a busted up old mirror. Delilah Blue is checking out his tired sachet. Getting bored or just disappointed with his own reflection.
The TVs blaring, the radio is turned up loud. Maybe then Ill sleep well, maybe then Ill drown you out. Dont want to think much I dont want to reminisce.
(a-wa) O kod wa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange. (a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani. (a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza. . She's a rich girl. She don't try to hide it.
Lover, I'm off the streets. I'm gonna go where the bright lights. And the big city meet. With a red guitar, on fire. Desire.. . She's the candle burnin' in my room.
Got my 40 clocked in, ready for some rockin'. Friday night pockets are full of green. Gonna get a little get right, loosen up the uptight. Lookin' like a good night to cause a scene.
I'm afraid to say what I need to say. Light a fire and watch you walk away. It's hell to walk a straight line. I was never yours. And you were never mine.
Don't go. . I don't know where you come from. But you're everywhere I go.. I don't know why you chose me. But as long as you're here. I don't need to know.
Clock on the dash board reads 5:09,. he hears his cell phone ringing, its his baby crying,. saying daddy please come home, me and mama are all alone,.
Trying to tell me something here. In this place. All of your demons rest. In my space. . I dreamed last night. You and I were there old and gray. Holding tight.
Don't like the direction you are going to. Seems to lack the attention, that it used to. Stay out all night and get high with your friends. Wonder why you don't get one thing done.
You can train yourself of worry. Cold and sleeping in a car. You can thirst for the cup of glory. All alone in the world, in a bar. . I've got numbers in my pocket.
