Pouring rain in Tuscon, Arizona. Checked into the Congress hotel. Met the band in a bar next to the lobby. Looking for another story I could tell. . When I left town you were heading for the altar.
I took the train home, facing backwards. Another hopeless chase. Echo Park, Indian summer. I wrote a new song about your new life. Like steps I retrace.
Nothing became something. Turned itself inside out. Subatomic particles became atoms, became stars, became galaxies. The earth's crust became solidified.
Don't cry my love don't cry no more. A crashing sky a rolling screen. A city drowning Gods black tears. I cannot bear to see. . She lay under the midnight moon.
Disco fool. . Yeah, I work out everyday (that's right). (You sexy) yeah that's what they say. I eat right and stay committed. (You lost 30 pounds) yeah they say I did it.
You, you, you, you. [x4]. . You, change your mind. Like a girl changes clothes. Yeah you, PMS. Like a bitch, I would know. . And you over think. Always speak critically.
Hey Rusty. It's a long time. Remember. It's like yesterday. Stealing cigarettes. And laughing as they chased us. Down the boulevards. Then I got a job.
Holier than thou, yes it's true. I'm too good for you. Higher than heaven, taller than jesus. Charlie knows just what you need is. . We're going down, down, underground.
Lay your head upon my shoulder. Let it rest there for a while. I guess that i`m still good for something. Once in a while. . And if you need someone to talk to.
There you go again. Alma tell me when. Will you never learn. And now you're underweight. And overpaid. You will not be saved. And you're pushing 38. Heaven knows your train is late.
You walk in my house with her lipstick over your face. You tell me you got news for me. Well, do you think I can't see straight?. Do you think I can't recognize her perfume on your clothes.
Whoever you want. To want you back. You never let go. What you dont have. I never wouldn't want. A nervous touch. Another bond. Another cut. . Like water.
I'm so moody, and they're so moody. And we're unstable and so unable to calm our bodies. Or keep shut, quiet. Hormones racing, no time for waiting. I'll feel it in the morning.
Shining through the plate glass, hyacinths and Spanish stars. All day caught on camera. The climbing sun, the fading dawn, like a hymn to our love. Somewhere theres a starling, gliding through the morning.
And so this is Christmas. And what have we done?. Another year over. And you've just begun. And so this is Christmas. I hope you have fun. Your near and your dear ones.
Now I know that it's the same.. Different people, different days.. It won't change.. Do you find security?. Knowing you have broken me.. . Like a pastime..
I once had a darling wife kind, true and sweet. Life was so bright and gay everything complete. But I fell for another who led my life astray. So I'll live in sorrow till my dying day.
It's the morning after. And we're on a train zigzagging 'cross the countryside. On our way home from a party. That turned insane. . He dozes off on my shoulder.
My baby don't turn around. Leaves hearts scattered on the ground. My baby don't make a sound. As long as her hard liquor's never watered down. . She's never been turned away.
Henry,. do you feel awake in the morning?. Henry,. Do you tend to break come the light?. For I feel the same. Though I'm not to blame. To of lost my hears desire.
