The world is waiting in the drive, another day begins. We wake up barely half alive, here we go again. We pay our bills and we don't complain. We just drive faster in the carpool lane.
I go to work from 10:30 until 6 a.m.. Raking up those dimes and quarters. Slinging eggs and ham. Scrambled, poached, or over easy. Coffee black and strong.
You know me. why you wanna cut me out?. I used to always come around. now it doesn't feel right. . time changed me. you pretend that all is right. every time you come by.
Spent my life looking for. Happiness like it was buried treasure. Somewhere behind the secret door. Surely there were riches beyond measure. . I would take my sanity to task.
Used to be that I would wait alone. Waiting for you to come home. Used to be scared of what I'd find. Wonderin if I was on your mind. You been gone gone a long time.
(matraca berg/wendy waldman/josh leo). . Well, all the girls you see walkin' in here. Acting like you're heaven sent. You tightrope-walkin' song of a gun.
I don't know where I'm going to but are you coming with me. If seeing is believing then we've nothing left to hope for. . I know you don't see me cos you're looking right through me.
If the sun. Ain't shining bright. And the moon, the moon. Won't shine for you tonight. And you feel. Feelin' real low down today. And the stars in the sky gone away.
You conquered me when you let me be. When you let me be. . Though you're my first love you're my last love. And although I am young I will never outgrow.
I looked in your eyes this morning. And the blue just turned to gray. I keep waiting for the storm that's coming. But it's just another dark day. . I only like clouds when they're raining.
Sweet Abilena looked out at the Midwestern sky. Sweet seventeen with a far away look in her eyes. She said "I feel like a bird in a cage but come September I'm flying away".
Does it feel good to leave me behind. Do you like the way I look when I'm crying. When you said that I'll be yours untill we die. Does it feel good to leave me behind.
Here we are. Clinging to what left of a broken heart. It's gone too far but. I don't think you know it. It ain't over yet. We were walking out the door when our eyes met.
I guess, you had to be there, she said, "You had to be". She handed me a yellowed photograph and then said. "See, this was my greatest love, my one and only love.
Came down from the Cadillac. Dude ranch, health spa. Nestled on the edge of town. For fourteen days I've been. Herbal wrapped, mud packed. . Now I'm bustin' out.
Oh no, here we go, and there you go again,. When we disagree, you leave when you don't win. Honey, your sidewalk baby talk don't get it with me no more.
He came into town in the early springtime. To work with my daddy down in the mines. It was hot in the summer when he said goodbye. And he left me a secret I can no longer hide.
If love is like a roller coaster. Pretty as a circus poster. Would you pay for a day at the fair?. I'd like to sit in the very last car. . Baby, don't hold onto the bar.
At nine o'clock each morning down on Charlotte Avenue. The bus driver stops and lets her off. Before the first shampoo. Alice started working there when she was just a girl.
Fools, they think they, for sure, know something. oh, of moons and stars,. of broken hearts and dreams.. But, me, I swear that I know nothing. but for nothing's always been enough for me..
