Gotta keep workin' seven days a week,. I can't eat and I can't sleep.. Feel like a train's ran over me.. I gotta keep my mind occupied,. Been runnin' on overdrive..
We're going to stop this world from turning. We build it up, you knock it down. If you go high then we'll go higher. Beyond the sky without a sound all around.
Someone said there's a lost horizon. We must find a way to the throne. Take his gold and the bed he lies on. The mercy from house made of stone. . Before the fall we were only dancers.
You don't know it yet,. But one day you're gonna have regrets.. When you realize your foolish ways,. You're gonna love me one day.. And it might take some time,.
I was thirty-seven. You were seventeen. You were half my age. The youth I'd never seen. . Unlikely people meeting in a dream. Heaven only knows. The way it should have been.
Taking in the party. He put me down for awhile. 100 watts of ambition. Springing off his smile. His lips hooked set to kiss me. But he closed up like a fist.
At last alone, his fire's dying. Burned another day. Now to pretend. and make up an ending. somewhere far away. . He reached for a book all bound in leather.
You don't know it yet,. But one day you're gonna have regrets.. When you realize your foolish ways,. You're gonna love me one day.. And it might take some time,.
I always find out too late. And you wouldn't believe what I'm on. In all this time, I've found nothing to live without it for. . Help me, holy. Help me, get me on my feet.
So you send them back. And I began to cry. But I can let you know. That I will let you go. You cover up your smile. And I'm afraid to move. This time I get it right.
They stop at the light. She painted her lips white. Saying it's green and let's go. Well it happened at least I told the truth one time. Cos I don't need some line.
Blue skies, once upon a dream. All eyes never in between. . Then into the garden came the spider. "I'm here for you," said the spider to the fly. And when I'm through, you can open up your eyes to see.
There's a bookstore in town where no one reads. And those who remember will disappear. I hate to see them getting old. But they're better dead than read.
Who did you call "Darlin'" to last night?. I said who did you call "Darlin'" to last night?. You been havin' fun with everyone except your wife:. Tell me who did you, call "Darlin'" to last night?.
Back in the bar they push the tables back. Lay you out like you walked into a speed trap. Felt my stomach drop right outta thin air. They got their hands in my pockets even if there's nothing there.
Another square day. And another square week. And another square year. And another square lifetime. . If you turn me on like you turn it on. Big square people.
I cried a tear or two,. An' I've loved and lost a few.. An' I've had my share of blue,. But nothin' compared to you.. . An' I've had my ups and downs..
Keeping me in the dark. Behind my back in my back yard. Shaking my head, stealing my seat. Keeping quite alone and meek. . I don't know if she can resist.
Your looks. My charm. My own imagination. My loves. Your hates. Your own infatuation. Are everything. Are everything. My hopes. Your fears. Your only limitation.
I'm waiting for someone to find me. Someone to pick me up. And make some use of me. In this life of wild adventure. There's so much I could give. Now that's what I call positive.
