I hear them chanting again. I hear them crying out loud. I see the masses fall away. This bitter war has begun. I hear the children cry for food. Their fathers have left them all for dead.
And Im amazed by You. 'Cause Youre never far away. And all that Ive been through. Your love has never changed. . You make oceans from the rain. Breathing life into this place.
I've been hanging on so long. I've been living on my own. Waiting for you. . I've been helpless since you've gone. Getting tired of being alone. Keep thinking of you.
Black streak on the boulevard. Another place they don't let you stay. White rain fallin' cold and hard. Gotta get through it anyway. . Try to be what you wanna be.
What happened to my heroes. They seemed to disappear. The idols keep on singin'. But they don't sound sincere. Oh woe is me, oh woe is me. I don't got no money.
December swallows September snowman. Somebody told me there's another time. But together, you go somewhere. Somewhere over the stairs. . They don't have seasons, they don't live for a reason.
Ohhh. Yes I got off the plane in the pouring rain. And headed down for one more show. Well I jumped in a car with a built in bar. Had another diamonds to go.
You say, "Come over baby. Come talk to me". Then you drive me so crazy. I can't hardly see. If this keeps goin' on. I might just leave and not come back.
I can't help about the shape I'm in. I can't sing, I ain't pretty, and my legs are thin. Don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer that you want me to.
Oh, oh pretty woman, she's the rising sun. Cheap paint and powder ain't gonna help you none. She's a pretty woman right down to the bone. So you might as well still leave your skin alone.
Why do the same thing, making it hard?. Running away, boy, but not very far. Don't know where you're headed, I'll follow, you lead. As long as we're getting to you and me.
You want to grow up to paint houses like me. A trailer in my yard till you're twenty three. You want to be old after forty two years. Keep dropping the hammer and grinding the gears.
First you say hello!. Then ya get mellow!. Mustn't be lazy!. Gotta be crazy!. Once you get started. This is what'll happen to you. . Ya shake it an' ya break it an' ya, Oh Babe.
Me and this girl we've been falling in love. Beneath the quarter moon, beneath the quarter moon. Me and this girl I've been living above. On a road called Oppenheimer.
Well I worked hard and I got lots of money. Well I tried hard but I don't want to stay. Yeah I've seen too much trouble, I felt too much pressure bubble.
By the time you leave. I'll be saving all my green. For a homebound train to carry me. On old familiar steam. . I wish you'd hurry up. And leave or come around.
Was there some part of you? Tail or hunchback. That, when they cut it off, grew back?. You were a little girl with starry eyes. Now you're a sad young man and no one knows why.
Old fools, dancing. Old fools who believe. That they can dance and sing. And fall in love. After all, love. . Old wines, old shoes. Old lines who would've thought.
Il est la vie, il est l'enfant. Il est la nuit, il est le chant - océan.... Ooohoo Ahaa. La mort n'est pas en lui. Il me sourit, il est vivant. . OTIS, ELÏSS, ELÏOSS, OTIS, ELÏSS, ELÏOSS.
Another day passes and you don't call. Getting to know every crack in the wall. If there's a good reason for this. It's a secret you're keeping. . Can't make a move and I don't know why.
