She'll turn thirty-four this weekend. She'll go out with her girlfriends. They'll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on. There'll be guys and there'll be come ons.
Have you ever seen a wild magnolia. There's only one place it grows. On the shady banks of the Tennessee River. Sheltered, untouched and alone. . There's a place in my heart where nobody has been.
In the after hours. Slowly shifting down. Last call is over. The sign is turned around. . The chairs are on the tables. The drinks are on the house. The talk is on the level.
There's a tomcat in the alley scarin' up a fight. There's a mother softly kissing her little one goodnight. There's peace and then there's chaos, reality and dreams.
People talkin', think I'm alright. Think I'm doin' fine. Goin' through the motioms of my life. Go to work now, every mornin'. Yeah, I play the part. Hide away the contents of my solemn heart.
Look at me feeling good. Who'd have thought I ever would. See my dreams come to light. See the dark turning bright. . For the first time I feel more than good.
Walk through the sand, scarred open land. Hopin to sell my soul to the man. Called out his name but he never came. No hope in hell is all that remains.
Busted chin. Seeing stars. Glaring at your handlebars. Your handlebars. . Why don't you. Try again. All your life. You couldn't win. You couldn't win.
Go get the dog. Out on the hill. He wants to lick. The moon. . I made a wish. Upon your head. I only want to sleep and. Dream of you, dream of you. . Lazy sky.
I had a dream about a dog. I was walking. In an amusement park. With people all around me. . We rode the roller coaster rides. And he was laughing as we.
Anthony, Anthony. Oh, he said. He can't love me. But I think he can. . Yes, I think he can. And I told him that. Just before he ran. Just before he ran.
Always late mhm with your kisses. Baby won't you come to my arms sweet darling and stay. Always late mhm with your kisses oh why oh why do you want to do me this way.
Now my daddy was a hard shelled Alabama preacher. My mama was a dedicated a Sunday School teacher. My brother went a college and got a PHD. Daddy said the only dud in the family was me.
Another sunny afternoon. Denies the worried look that's on my face. Connected through the years. It somehow took us both in separate ways. Was on a day that time forgot.
Black boy in Chicago, playing in the street. Not near enough to wear, not near enough to eat. Don't you know he saw it on a July afternoon?. He saw a man named 'Armstrong' walk upon the moon.
Are you tired of me my darling?. Did you mean those words you said?. That have made me yours forever. Since the day when we were wed. . And tell me, could you live life over,.
Let me say this one more time. Just in case you didn't hear it right. Put it in my own words. So I know it's understood. You sent me out on a limb. You brought me home sent me back again.
You can cuss the daylights. Outta this pale winter moon. We could ponder every reason. Why your true love was untrue. . You can cry your eyes out. I've got a shoulder here for you.
The touch of your hand will let me know. You'll take me in then let me go. If not for love why would we meet?. How is it turned two into one so easily?.
I saw you on the avenue. You looked so tired and a little blue. You were in your Sunday best. With your father's tie upon your chest. . Hey, you always stood me still.
