You and I had a love for the ages. I can't believe we let it slip away in stages. Another argument. A few more words to resent. . Dramatic scenes and all your phony shrieking passion.
Im growing old before my eyes. But Im young enough to be surprised. That you would take away my rights. For getting in a couple of fist fights. . Its hot downtown tonight.
There are rainbows and antennas that whisper in the night. With silence in my heart I recognize. The morning is not far I see the fading of the stars.
Eric Michael Jones [ASCAP]. . Three AM we were sittin in my daddys car. Me and Lucy McGee decided to go too far. So we went down to the stripmine. We werent looking for love.
Eric Michael Jones [ASCAP]. . I saw a square cloud. It was a perfect square. I never mentioned it out loud. Maybe I wasnt even really there. . Everybody is so annoyed.
Who needs this continental overkill?. We got trains that are rusting on the tracks. Who cares if you build a better oil drill. Its too late the knife is hanging in our backs.
Eric Michael Jones [ASCAP]. . I was born in New England. Lived here all my life. Got a three bedroom house in the suburbs. With my two kids and my first wife.
I went out dancing with my wife. One of the great joys of my life. We did the Jitterbug Swing to the saxophone. Stopped for a snack on our way home. .
Sat on a bee when I sat on the swing. It gave me a big sting on my little ding-a-ling. Oh man I screamed and I cried. Mom said youll live, but the bee died.
The Motor City rocks like a head full of granite. We were diggin heavy metal before the whole planet. Got the Iggy Pop punk rock crash boom rattle. Too much grunge, we had to ship it to Seattle.
Lonely days lonely nights here I sit by candle light, oh so lonely.. As the seasons pass you by will you ever wonder why, why so lonely.. . And I know a place that is far away close your eyes and youre there..
Close my eyes there I see you in my mind.. Across the stars, the moon, the sun is where you are.. All these lives Ive lived before have passed my by..
Yeah, I try so many times in my life to get it right. Yeah, I've been a fool for much too long. When will I learn? When will I get it right?. . Uncle John, yeah, Uncle John.
