Apologies never sounded insincere than when calling up a mother. Her bloody child on the battle field of war. While the pretty politicians lay their babies down to sleep.
All the leaves turn green in the summer. All the roses bloom in May. All the geese fly home for the winter. High above our earth now paved. . All the stars gleam for the night time.
I heard about, I heard about your daddy got sick. Drove down to the river to die alone. Seven days, seven days till they found him all. Wrapped up in a blanket on the boat.
well i got another letter in the mail today. after 27 lines i hadn't a thing to say. it said "i love you little brother but i don't know why you let your hair get long and your soul grow tired".
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble. Ancient footprints are everywhere. You can almost think that you're seein' double. On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.
as our ships sails under moonlight. the mighty north-wind blows. there's a scream come from the cabin. not a sailor could have known. is it he who killed the captain?.
The TVs blaring, the radio is turned up loud. Maybe then Ill sleep well, maybe then Ill drown you out. Dont want to think much I dont want to reminisce.
[Verse 1]. Some people hunger for the greenback bill. Some folks hunger for the top of the hill. Some people just tryin' to get a decent meal. Well I know that we can turn it around.
There are places I remember. All my life though some have changed. Some forever not for better. Some have gone and some remain. All these places have their moments.
I hope you find what you're lookin for when it all comes runnin' down. I hope you find it painted black on your window, or the lips of your lover's frown.
Commodore, commodore, commodore. Well, save yourself, the cellars cold but dry. Commodore, commodore, commodore. Well, grab your coat the wind'll blow out your eyes.
Turn down the lights. Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices inside my head. Lay down with me. Tell me no lies. Just hold me close, don't patronize.
Tried to keep you close to me,. But life got in between. Tried to square not being there. But think that I should have been. . Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes.
Isn't it hard to pretend that there's no feeling. When you're alone on sunny days. Just give me hope there's some light inside your own engine. Some mechanism, still the same.
Now I've heard there was a secret chord. That David played, and it pleased the Lord. But you don't really care for music, do you?. It goes like this. The fourth, the fifth.
You'll remember me when the west wind moves. Upon the fields of barley. You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky. As we walk in fields of gold. . So she took her love.
(a-wa) O kod wa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange. (a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani. (a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza. . She's a rich girl. She don't try to hide it.
Lover, I'm off the streets. I'm gonna go where the bright lights. And the big city meet. With a red guitar, on fire. Desire.. . She's the candle burnin' in my room.
My house in Budapest. My hidden treasure chest,. Golden grand piano. My beautiful Castillo. . You. You. I'd leave it all. . My acres of a land. I have achieved.
I am at ease in the arms of a woman. Although now. most of my days i spend alone. A thousand miles. from the place i was born. But when she wakes me. She takes me back home.
