People say I care too much. I'm so emotional. A tender soul who's out of control. I've been told a hear like mine. Is truly valuable. Worth even more than diamonds and gold.
I called him for days, he didn't answer the phone. I drove by his house, I knew he was home. A week's worth of papers and mail in the box. I thought he was dead, I picked the lock.
I've been waiting for some time. for the sidewalk to come alive. I've got good days and sleepless nights. 'cause you and me got lost in time. . I was praying for a sign for the tides.
Shoot the moon, pull down the stars. If she don't love me now. Pretty soon I'll be packing my heart. If she don't love me now. Curse a big brown. If she don't love me now.
Broken hearts string strong. The broken arrow bangs a drum. . Come on, little sparrow. Come on, little sparrow. I know you know you can fly. . Dancing on the point of a star.
I came to the city. When the city was cheap. Now that cheese had some work done. I pay through the teeth. You came from Alberta. You said 'Toronto's not so bad'.
January's always bitter. But Lord this one beats all. The wind ain't quit for weeks now. And the drifts are ten feet tall. I been all night drivin' heifers.
The moment we said good bye. Silence tore across the sky. The riverbed lay wide and dry. As far as I could see. And someone said. My ghost was found. Laying her burden down.
I found a postcard from long ago. In a drawer yesterday.. Come back to Tucson, I miss you so.. It was warm here today.. Northern Rockies all deep in snow.
Nothing is wrong here so I'm climbing up the walls. Trying to kill this silence with gun blasts and alcohol. I've been laughing, I've been crying, I've been living, I've been dying.
He's a cowboy, he was raised in Ohio. He got married and moved further west.. Showed up on time for a few awful years. And one night he got drunk and he left..
Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton. Old things they are not forgotten. Look away, look away, look away Dixieland. Oh I wish I was in Dixie, away, away.
Well it must 've been lost in the golden shackles. Pretty when you look and hard to get away. Once upon a time I was a 6-foot johnny. Nothin was nothin I could not shake.
Many years ago in days of childhood. I used to play till evenin' shadows come. Then windin' down an old familiar pathway. I heard my mother call at set of sun.
I am not the same I am so confused anymore. I feel like I am lost in the wind. Oh God, not this feeling again. I don't wanna feel. I don't wanna feel.
Mmmmm,. Ohhh,.... . Let me tell ya now. This field ain't ever been plowed. But that don't mean it can't. It just ain't happened yet. But baby, you. Seem ta see past the weeds.
How do I. Break it to my heart. That it's gotta get over you. . How do I. Learn to live apart. From the one I gave my life to. . Well right here. Right now.
Witness. . well you feather down warm. and your motorcycle cool. but you're not very hip are you baby. and i like that about you.. . you can laugh at your self.
I am a Rose of Sharon. A lily of the valley. As a lily grows. Among the thorns. Love in this world. Has found me. . As an apple tree. Among the trees.
Winding down to the end of the line. And the falling of the curtain. I'll be yours and you'll be mine. Of that one truth I'm certain. I will give you roses fair.
