Raised up on midwestern dreams. only a few shall get. what everyone shall need. I took my family's burden. and I strapped it to my chest. with 100 bucks and a kiss for luck.
Tonight I feel so weak. But all in love is fair. I turn the other cheek. And I feel the slap and the sting of the foul night air. And I know you're only human.
I played the fool today. And I just dream of vanishing into the crowd. Longing for home again. But home is a feeling I buried in you. I'm alright, I'm alright.

How could I stay. How could I breathe. There had to be more for me. Promises gone. Plastic and stone. I'm doing fine all alone. . So you're having a breakdown.
If I could have my way. I'd be sleeping in the alley. On a couch with a friend and a bottle of gin. If I could have my way. I'd be runnin' with the circus.
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell. Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high. Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder. The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky.
I'll have. A Blue Christmas. Without you. I'll be so blue. Thinking about you. Decorations of red. On a green Christmastree. Won't be the same dear. If you're not here with me.
They say that they don't know me. Never saw my face. And if they've never been there. Can they be sure there's such a place. They think if they don't answer.
Why can't you be real. You hide the way you feel. You can't manufacture me. Cause I like it naturally. Why can't you be true. Why can't you be you. Stop all your suffering.
No one conceals me like. No one reveals me like. My lover. No one can disconnect. No one can resurrect. Like my lover. . My lover makes me weak. Gives me breath to speak.
It's 1: 25 a.m. i think i've seen that look somewhere before. 1: 25 a.m. i thought that you were headed for the door. then something touched my skin. i won't ask you to leave here any more.
The rope that's wrapped around me. Is cutting through my skin. And the doubts that have surrounded me. Are finding their way in. I keep it close to me.
First time I saw you. back in 1982. an L.A. bar I've come so far. in my Kansas dancin shoes. I'm just a singer and I'm lookin for a song. do you want to sing along?.
You softly whisper "I love you". Your finger tips run through my hair. You hold me so tightly and kiss me, and tell me. you'll always be there.. I reach for you with a smile as I slowly open my eyes.
all we can really do. is love one another. all we can really do. is love one another. all we can really do. . is love one another. all we can really do.
All there is. Is atoms and space. Everything else. Is illusion. . All there is. Is atoms and space. Everything else. Is illusion. . All there is. Is atoms and space.
I want to find me a car. With only one headlight. A straight six Ford. On a good luck night. I want to roll down the windows. And teach you to fly. I want to give you a thrill.
Oh Oh oh oh oh oh ohh oh oh oh oh oh ohh oh Oh Oh oh oh oh oh ohh. These headlights these spotlights. Shooting down the road. What's shaking you're baking honey I'm coming home.
She wakes up in the morning. With a pain in her jet black head. A decaf coffee in her hand. And a Marlboro red. She drives down to the office. In her Japanese car.
