I been standin' on the waters edge. Now you want to pull me in. But I been standin' here too long. I can't remember if I can swim. . Do you believe that people change?.
As each long day rolls by and falls behind me. In the lonely night there's a peacefulness I've found. Though I'm weary even then when I rise to start again.
I took a walk today. Through these gray and dirty streets. Thinking of you, missing you. And hoping that we'd meet. . I didn't tell my legs where to go.
Well I read about a man one day, he wasted not his time away. He prayed to God every morning, noon and night. He cared not for the things of Baal, trusted one who never fails.
Lizzy got married on Christmas Day. On the Coney Island Coast, I remember the way. She stood in the cold with the sun in her hair. Me and my brother were standing by.
Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel. And the storm is brewin in this heart of mine. This ain't no crazy dream, I know that its real. You're someone else's love now, you're not mine.
Up above me are the skies. Like the twinkle in your eyes. These things are the color of the blues. . In the mail your letter came. The ink and paper looked the same.
In the name of the fifty-three saints. I will go searching says. Seek out the hurt he says. Where comes this pain. Could it be a whirlwind spinning in the dark.
I tried so hard, my dear, to show. That you're my every dream. Yet you're afraid each thing I do. Is just some evil scheme. . A memory from your lonesome past.
The summer is gone, I can't believe. It went so fast. Why do only the cold and lonely times. Seem to last. . Now it's late at night, I watch you sleepin'.
Christmas time's a comin'. Christmas time's a comin'. Christmas time's a comin'. And I know I'm goin' home. . Snow flake's a-fallin'. My old heart's a callin'.
Time goes by. I fall out of touch. I can't explain. Why I fall so much. I bought a pack of cigarettes. Sent an old Elvis stamp to your new address. The weather's here.
I met a man who would be king. He had a dream to see forever. It was a promise in the dark. It was a promise we made together. . I was a girl who would be queen.
I took a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. The new graffiti says that life's a bitch. And now I hear this bridge is falling down. Someone will steal it 'fore it hits the ground.
He sits all alone in his easy chair. Starin' back on all his lost yesterdays. Long before he encountered the bottle. And the demons that drove her away.
Hail brother. The distant thunderIs nothing but hearts. Beating as one. Dance of a million. On God's pavilion. Come comeBeat on your drum. . Awake people arise.
Bought a ticket to Seattle but I can't get to the plane. Everytime I leave you I keep running out of chain. I hunger for your love it never gives me any slack.
Make me a believer baby. I want to believe in the power of love. Make me a believer baby. 'Cause I feel the strength of your love. Ooh yeah. Now now. .
I looked upon the book of lifeTracing the lines of face after faceLooking down at their naked feetBound in chains bound in chainsChains of leather chains of gold.
Raindrops fall from the sky. Teardrops fall from my eyes. Can't stop myself from lovin' you. Your heartaches found a home. I walk these streets alone.
