I drive through streets, I could walk for weeks. Full of life or full of loneliness. Whose eyes will I watch from. Today?. . The day I signed, My horror signed.
I saw them there, a pale green pair,. In the window of a shop down on Robertson.. It was the kind of store that sold couture. and shiny little shoes that I can't afford..
I ken a lass she has nae name*. Nor hame that she will own to. She traivels lighter than the swan. That builds its nest on Lochan Dhu. . [Chorus:]. It's will ye bundle and will ye go.
I got a secret, I'm telling everyone. Don't wanna keep it, I wanna play dumb. I made a promise I think I'm ready to break. . It's just a question, there's nothing wrong or right.
I never believed in the word lonely. Even when I found myself all alone. I never needed someone else to want me. To make me feel wanted. Cause deep inside I've always known.
In the back of your car. In the pourin rain. You told me somethin. You never told anyone. Saw the look on your face. When I turned away. I wanted so bad.
You're riding up the elevator. Shirt tucked in right. No space. Head case. Up against the street lights. This is your world walking high and mighty. I got news for you and you ain't gonna like it.
Found my old songs today. A library full of old words I'd say. Remembered all I saw. Suddenly fire lit this heart raw. . Spanish streets, American rush.
Tempted to fall into cynical. Child Inside, I'm back again,. praying for strength to my feathered friend. . Falling felt bliss. Crawled on skin, lick on lips.
Im lost inside with no way out. My heart and mind so filled with doubt. What am I supposed to see here. How do I figure it out. . I (I, I) I lost I ran away.
That's how you get hurt, you take a step out of line. so I tried to keep myself inside. I had it planned out and I knew where to hide.. I see your smile, and I forget all my rules and how much it will hurt me if I lose.
Two masks. One a princess, one a witch. Both ridiculous and painted and blind. My eyes. Would fill the empty spaces. And bring about a total transformation.
I'm gonna try my best to love him. Don't know why I want him so. Yeah, I'll try and keep him by my side. I won't ever let him go. For I've learned too much in my poor life.
Who danced with me before now?. Who joined me at the ship's bow?. Who held my frightened form still?. And now you say that you will. But in the years behind me.
The music I heard once. Was louder than it is now. I can no longer distinguish. Pained cries from shouts of joy. Perhaps my ears are deaf. Or the interference too great.
Your eyes are raised to heaven. When I'm sitting on the floor. At your feet. What am I for?. Do I create or just translate. Between you and your mind.
Remember and tell me, the day you love. Behind a veil of tears. How dreams as these you dreamt not of. And thought to pass your years. More peaceably than others do.
There was a land I once heard tell. 'Twas christened Mushroom Down. The folk who lived there loved it well. And never left their town. They stayed there from the hour of birth.
The art of suicide, nightgowns and hair. Curls flying every which-way. The fate too pure to hide, ridges of size. Meant to conceal lover's lies. . Under the arches of moonlight and sky.
The art of suicide, nightgowns and hair. Curls flying every which-way. The fate too pure to hide, bridges of sighs. Meant to conceal lover's lies. . Under the arches of moonlight and sky.
