I just finished a book with its cover torn and its pages worn.. The story starts on the day you were born in the city.. Where movie houses stood. Raised on Elvis and Hollywood..
Troubled at the office, troubled at the bank. I put my hands against the tree line. I know it's real but it still feels fake. The last thing I remember from that world.
When you come near me. I can hardly breathe. you know I just can't resist. So you come around. and turn me upside down. just to fool my unguarded heart.
Time has told me that is never too late. Love has showed me that life's sometimes made of. sweet lies and make believe, yeah. sharing moments, time stops....
chasing a lie. tracing our scars. moaning for help to be held. and every day we feel further away from ourselves. the concrete is wet, i feel too comfortable.
Sweet Sunrise. (music & lyrics by Ricardo Marques). . Tell me, darling,. cause Ive been wandering round the streets. A moan in silence. thinking how it would be.
I'm walking by the side of the road,. just watching lights fade and go. and I'm being, seeing, I'm just letting it grow.... 'cause I don't wanna worry.
[Originally by Leon Redbone]. Shadows slowly creeping, down the prairie trail. Everything is sleeping, all but the nightingale. Soon the moon will be climbing across the blue, blue sky, night winds slow and haunting. This prairie lullaby. Tumble to bed, my child, my little old sleepy head, the stars are in the sky. Now that your prayers are said, my little old sleepy head to this prairie lullaby. Saddle up your ponies, to sail with you, lead you down a trail of dreams. Stumble to bed, my child, my little old sleepy head, to this prairie lullaby. Saddle up your ponies to sail with you, lead you down a trail of dreams. Now that your prayers are said, you can get to bed, to this prairie lullaby..
If I could fly.... I'd catch stars falling from the sky. I would be somewhere I've never been. far across the sea, and deep inside the dawn. . If I could try....
I'm so tired waiting on people to get true. and I just can't take all the same excuses, through and through. I'm so sure that I don't need any guidance.
[Originally by Eric Mast]. I never guessed a kiss could feel so honest. I never expected a thing from you. I'm not the one who's special but it made me feel so brand new. You made me feel like nothing mattered. Made me believe that love was pure. I want to feel like I still matter to you. Stayed up all night same as last night and the one before just like the night we spent before. Last time I saw you I tried to hide it wasting my time hoping you would walk by. I would have never guessed how deeply you have made me fall for you. I'm not sure how you still feel about us, I myself am a bit confused. I realize that you don't need me but right now I'm missing you. Please don't let it end this way..
I wish I were younger. and I wish that I were stronger. Oh Lord, I wish.... I wish that I could understand the world,. that I could find a better way.
I could not say. it would hurt me so unkindly. Oh, I just could not know,. it would tear my heart 'n soul, yeah. . But as lonely days go by, I get to know.
I'm sick and tired of you being sick and tired. you better stand and make it right, once for all. Looking back, wrong direction. seeking water on a sea of sand.
