He could have prospered in the suburbs. Instead of working for the poor. Down at the inner-city mission. Where there's so much disappointment. And very few rewards.
How many days, Lord, have I walked in this wilderness?. A thirsty pilgrim with no water to drink. And this barren place is making me crazy. But in my desperation, I am forced to think.
I've spent half my lifetime watching time go by. And wondering where it went. When I try to fall asleep at night. I lay there feeling spent. . Contemplating what the next day's gonna hold for me.
Face lost in the crowd. Feet wandering empty streets. Voice crying out loud. Heart aching with every beat. . Someone searching. Searching for someone.
Seems that life's become so complicated. I don't think it was meant to be this way. I find myself so distracted. Caught up in the chaos of each day. .
We were lost in the dark but we've opened the door. We're afraid cause this thing's never happened before. There's a fear making noise in the back of your head.
(Verse). As usual ,knock on my door. Backing the heart beat. No running from me. We've had it all. Big and the small. Who knew we would need. You're nothing like me.
I was doin' it when I was a colored boy of eight or nine or ten. I had never heard of Sigmund Freud but hell I was doin' it then. I was doin' it in my teenaged years when I was running the ghetto streets.
Give us joy, give us love, give us song, give us light. Shine down on us for it's Christmas time. . Through the year. It's been dark. We need some laughter.
If you're driving through the country on a lazy afternoon. Or you're watching your children playing after school. They seem to be so unaware of. The things that they soon have to take care of.
We all came out to Montreux. On the lake Geneva shoreline. To make records with a mobile. We didn't have much time. Frank Zappa and the Mothers. Were at the best place around.
(*Gillan, Morris). . I put my bags down for a minute. I put the phone down for a while. I must have done something bad and wicked. Or I'd have got more than just an evil smile.
I can't give you any more. You already got it. I wish it could be like before. Like the day we've started. It seems we've found an end. Our love is dying.
Somebody's someone. It ain't just in the cities,. It's in the small towns too;. People living on the streets,. Right in front of me and you.. Sleeping in cardboard houses,.
I can't forget the day you came. And knocked it on my door baby. Everything you said to me. I was a fool too blind to see. . I never knew a love so true.
Sometimes I Don'T Like Myself. And It'S Making Me Sad. Sometimes I Don'T Want To Go To. Where We First Met. . Sometimes I Don'T Want To Remember. All The Things We'Ve Done.
The pain is still here. But the silence heals. Wish me luck. That's all I've got. To start a new life after this. There was someone. But now she's gone.
She is everybody's darling. The cute little darling. But she's on her own. . She's walking out the door, our little beauty queen. She's acting, and she needs her scene.
I can see it in your eyes. And it makes realize. That I love you. I can see it in your eyes. It makes me realize. That I love you, I really love you. I can see it in your eyes.
