Missin' at school, bustin' the rules, hates everything in sight. Needs some new shoes, dad's on the booze, she's never there. Far away kid, all on his own, can't tell the wrong from right.
Could they call your name much louder. Those sirens on the shore. Arresting your attention. Standing easy by the door. Deny them if you want to. Defy them if you dare.
We've seen a lifetime since we met. Through good and bad. And things we won't forget. Forgotten promises and broken vows. But we always made it through somehow.
I know your secret. And I promise Ill never tell. Im under its magic spell. Oh Ill try to keep it to myself. I know you have a terrible vat to keep. Oh how do you get to sleep.
Thinking about old times. Thinking about the things we said. All the worthless games and lies. . I'm looking at myself and the mirror's unkind. You're inside my mind.
There's nothing that's better at all. That's better than the sound of the closest call. Tells you to act proud, act proud, walk tall. There's nothing that's better at all.
Babe I had a dream. Woke up in a sweat. Darkness all around me. I was caught in it's net. Tried to reach for you. But you weren't there. It only was a dream.
I'd give you everything you wanted. I'd give you all that you require. Just say the word and I'll get on it. I'm here to realise your desires. . So I don't know why you don't try.
Jenny's sitting in the car. In the middle of some abandoned Shoney's parking lot. Ripping off the filters off her cigarettes. Crying, he loves me, loves me not.
There's a silent movie running off. Its real inside my mind. As I try to fall asleep tonight. On prescription lullabys. In the darkness there's a doorway.
Feel free to leave the tap on my phone. When I hear that click I know I'm not alone. Continue to read through all of my mail. My private life is up for sale.
I will be there for you. For you are mine. And I'll take care of you. Every single time. . I'll be watching over you. When the world seems bitter cold.
Negative love, skeptical lies beneath the frown. Negative love, youre always putting other people down. Then theyre gone. As they fade away well whos to say that you were wrong?.
You were beautiful, intelligent,. Understood every word I meant. You were full of charm, a little la di da,. called you my mornign star.. My bright one, my light one,.
When you tell me that you're leaving. And that you've got to be alone. Sometimes you seem to me like you're far away. In some different danger zone. .
I was born with a coat hanger in my mouth. Oh yeah, and I was dumped down south. I was found by the richest man in the world. Oh yeah, who bought me up as a girl.
You left me here alone. I guess I'll never see the light. You turned another's thumb. And he makes your wrongs seem right. Out on some different wavelength.
I'm a quiet guy, lead a quiet life. Got a quiet way and a quiet wife. I don't say so much, if there's nothing to say. I just watch the silence blow the day away.
Born in Louisiana in a town called Franklin. And she was fully matured by the time she reached the age of 10. Mulatto girl, that's what they called her.
You say there's nothin' wrong. With the lessons that you're learnin'. The school of the streets. You'll kick next year. Skateboardin' Hollywood and Vine.
