We find ourselves on different sides. Of a line nobody drew. Though it all may be one in the higher eye. Down here where we live it is two. . I to my side call the meek and the mild.
Four o'clock in the afternoon. And I didn't feel like very much.. I said to myself, "Where are you golden boy,. Where is your famous golden touch?". I thought you knew where.
It's coming through a hole in the air. From those nights in Tiananmen Square. It's coming from the feel. That this ain't exactly real. Or it's real, but it ain't exactly there.
The woman in blue, she's asking for revenge. The man in white -- that's you -- says he has no friends. The river is swollen up with rusty cans. . And the trees are burning in your promised land.
Did I ever love you. Did I ever need you. Did I ever fight you. Did I ever want to. . Did I ever leave you. Was I ever able. Or are we still leaning. Across the old table.
Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin. Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in. Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove.
I caught the darkness, it was drinking from your cup. I caught the darkness drinking from your cup. I said is this contagious?. You said just drink it up..
Dear Heather. Please walk by me again. With a drink in your hand. And your legs all white. From the winter.
Ah the man she wanted all her life was hanging by a thread. "I never even knew how much I wanted you," she said.. His muscles they were numbered and his style was obsolete..
O gather up the brokenness. And bring it to me now. The fragrance of those promises. You never dared to vow. . The splinters that you carry. The cross you left behind.
Maybe I'm still hurting. I can't turn the other cheek. But you know that I still love you. It's just that I can't speak. I looked for you in everyone.
I had to go crazy to love you. Had to go down to the pit. Had to do time in the tower. Beggin' my crazy to quit. . I had to go crazy to love you. You who were never the one.
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel. You were talking so brave and so sweet. Giving me head on the unmade bed. While the limousines wait in the street.
Ah we're drinking and we're dancing. And the band is really happening. And the Johnny Walker wisdom running high. And my very sweet companion. She's the angel of compassion.
I came so far for beauty. I left so much behind. My patience and my family. My masterpiece unsigned. . I thought I'd be rewarded. For such a lonely choice.
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel. You were talking so brave and so free. Giving me head on the unmade bed. While the limousines wait in the street.
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,. You were talking so brave and so sweet,. Giving me head on the unmade bed,. While the limousines wait in the street..
I was born in chains but I was taken out of Egypt. I was bound to a burden, but the burden it was raised. Lord I can no longer keep this secret. Blessed is the name, the name be praised.
By the rivers dark. I wandered on.. I lived my life. In Babylon.. . And I did forget. My holy song. And I had no strength. In Babylon.. . By the rivers dark.
Because of a few songs. Wherein I spoke of their mystery,. Women have been. Exceptionally kind. To my old age.. They make a secret place. In their busy lives.
