Sweet Ride:Best Of

Bel Canto Sweet Ride:Best Of Lyrics
1.Spaceman

I can see the heat pour off of me.
I can see it burns you too, brother.
I can see the strength you took from me.
I can see it sapped you too, brother,
But we're not angels.
We're not fools.
Danger.
Danger.
I can see your allegiance to me
I can see the way you put your arm out to me,
And I'm no fun anymore.
But we're not angels.
We're not cool.
Danger.
Danger.
She said 'I'm not a unicorn.
You'll always find another one,'
And, 'you're not a dying sun.
There's always another ray to your heart.'
I'm holding out.
I'm holding out for a spaceman,
For a spaceman,
For the spaceman.
She said, 'I'm not a unicorn.
Go out and get another one.
You're not a dying sun.
There's always another ray to your heart.'
I'm holding out.
I'm holding out for a spaceman,
For a spaceman,
Brother spaceman.
I can see the heat pour off of me.
I can see it burns you too.


2.Gepetto

So he's lying on top again
Just like Gepetto and his doll.
And he's running around again,
And I can't get him out of this house.
And if you bore him,
You lose your soul to me.
So that kid from the bad home
Came over to my house again,
Decapitated all my dolls.
And if you bore me,
You lose your soul to me.
Hey Gepetto,
Where'd you put it?
Oh Gepetto, poor boy.
Hey Gepetto, where'd you put it?
Oh Gepetto, poor boy.
And if you bore him,
You're gonna lose your soul.
Hey Gepetto, where'd you get to?
Oh Gepetto, poor boy.
Hey Gepetto, where'd you get to?
Oh Gepetto, poor boy.
Hey Gepetto, what'd you get me?
Oh Gepetto, poor boy.
So he's lying on top again,
Just like Gepetto.


3.Super-Connected

On your third broken window,
Your hair full of glass,
Throw your clothes in the hallway,
Just a sheet on your back.
So you're super-connected now?
All the freaks gather around,
And the crowd in your bedroom waits
For a piece of your personal space.
Are there heart strings connected
To the wings you've got slapped on your back?
Better climb in the window cause I'm closing the door.
On your third broken window,
With your hair full of glass,
Saw your clothes in the hallway,
Just a curtain on your back.
I laugh.
Are there heart strings connected
To the wings you've got slapped on your back?
Better climb in the window cause I'm closing the door.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Like you claim to do,
Like now, like now.
Are there heart strings connected
To the poison coming out of your mouth?
Are you super-connected?
Are you super-connected now?
I'm spinning on a dime.
Throw your clothes in the hallway,
And I'm closing the door.


4.Broken

He crys out her eyes,
A fire unfurnaced.
The curve of her spine
Is heaven unbound,
But heaven is harsh,
A fire unfaithful
Like a bird that you hold in your palm.
I know where you hang.
I drive by there often.
I spy on the circus
You make of your friends.
Heaven is harsh,
A fire unfaithful
Like a bird that you hold in your palm.
Broken eyes in your head.
Broken arms at your side.
Broken bird on a string.
Shake it till she sings,
And you reel that sucker in
By that broken baby wing,
And you shake her till she sings,
And you shake her till she sings.
He cries out her eyes,
As blue as her fingers.
The curve of her ass
Is unparalleled.
Heaven is harsh,
A fire ungrateful
Like the bird you hold in your palm.
Broken eyes in your head.
Broken arms at your side.
Broken bird on a string.
Shake it till she sings,
And you reel that sucker in
By the broken baby wing,
And you shake her till she sings,
And you shake her till she sings.


5.Hot Burrito #1

Written:Gram Parsons/Chris Ethridge

You may be sweet and nice,
But that won't keep you warm at night
'Cause I'm the one who showed you how
To do the things you're doing now.
He may feel all your charms.
He might hold you in his arms,
But I'm the one who let you in.
I was right beside you in the end.
Once upon a time,
You let me feel you deep inside,
But nobody knew, nobody saw.
Do you remember the way we cried?
I'm your toy.
I'm your old boy,
But I don't want no one
But you to love me.
No, I wouldn't lie.
You know I'm not that kind of guy.
Once upon a time,
You let me feel you deep inside,
But nobody knew, nobody saw.
Do you remember the way we cried?
I'm your toy.
I'm your old boy,
But I don't want no one
But you to love me.
No, I wouldn't lie.
You know I'm not that kind of guy.


6.Trust In Me

Lyrics:Sherman
Music:Sherman

Hold still please.
Trust in me,
Just in me.
Close your eyes,
And trust in me.
We can sleep safe and sound,
Knowing I am around.
Slip into silent slumber.
Sail on a silver mist.
Slowly but surely,
Your senses will cease to resist.
Slip into silent slumber.
Sail on a silver mist.
Slowly but surely,
Your senses will cease to resist.
Trust in me,
Just in me.
Shut your eyes,
And trust in me.
You can sleep safe and sound,
Knowing I am around.


7.Feed The Tree

This old man I've talked about
Broke his own heart,
Poured it in the ground.
Big red tree grew up and out,
Throw up its leaves,
Spins round and round.
I know all this and more.
So take your hat off
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree.
This little squirrel I used to be
Slammed her bike down the stairs.
They put silver where her teeth had been.
Baby silvertooth,she grins and grins.
I know all this and more.
So take your hat off boy
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree.
Take your hat off boy
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree.
This old man I used to be
Spins around, around, around the tree.
Silver baby come to me.
I'll only hurt you in my dreams.
I know all this and...
I know all this and...
I know all this and more.
So take your hat off boy
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree.
Take your hat off
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree.


8.Dusted

Baby's playing dead in cellar.
Gave her water just got paler.
Grass stains, backburns, she's a screamer.
She's just dusted, leave her.
If you see her, don't upset her.
Never seems to get much better.
Grass stains, backburns, she's a screamer.
She's just dusted leave her.
Mmm mmm, goes to your heart.
Mmm mmm, sticks in your head.
Mmm mmm mmm mmm, yeah.
Baby's playing dead in cellar.
Gave her water, she got paler.
Grass stains, backburns, she's a screamer.
She's just dusted, leave her.


9.Seal My Fate

Untame my brain.
Give me a name.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
Unholy and dirty words I gathered to me,
Thinking the point was keep what's mine for me,
While he's laughing.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
And when you breathe, you breathe for two.
And if you think you've finally found the perfect light,
I hope it's true.
Unholy and dirty words I gathered to me,
Thinking the point was keep what's mine for me,
While he's laughing.
On every track I fractured every back,
Thinking the point was step on every crack,
And he's laughing.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
And when you breathe, you breathe for two.
And if you think you've finally found the perfect light,
I hope it's true.
You say you saw him laughing.
I hope it's true.
I'd like to see it happen. I hope it's true
'Cause I can feel it.
I hope it's true.


10.Judas Mon Coeur

O?je vis
Je vois des voiles descendre cacher nos blessures
Pauvres gens perdus seuls comme hier
O?je vis
Des sanglots se lent et vont voiler les etoiles
Une femme va ici et l?sur les mains
Elle a peur de suivre la voie de ses pas
O?je vis
Une femme va ici et l?sur les mains
Elle a peur de suivre la voie de ses pas
Oh, je ne veux que toi
J'avais cette robe la
Qui n'a jamais peur de rien quand on revient sur le soir
La lune se noie
Autour de moi
La lune se noie
Autour de moi
Et elle me fait voir qui tu es, qui tu es
Judas mon coeur
Judas mon coeur
O?je vis
Des sanglots se lent et vont voiler les oiles
Et mon coeur a besoin de vie comme hier
O?je vis
Je vais et je viens ici et la sur mes mains
Et j'ai peur de suivre la voie de mes pas
Oh, je ne veux que toi
J'avais cette robe la
Je n'ai jamais peur de rien
Ne dis plus et c'est moi que voila
La lune se noie
Autour de moi
La lune se noie
Autour de moi
Et elle me fait voir qui tu es, qui tu es
Judas mon coeur, Judas mon coeur
Judas mon coeur, Judas mon coeur
Je vais chanter le me
Qui tu me feras ???
Oui, je vais chanter
Je vais chanter le me
Qui tu me feras ???
Oui, je vais chanter
Je vais chanter le me
Qui tu me feras ???

Une femme s'en va sur ses mains
Elle laisse comme moi essayer
Par la voie o?ses pas, o?ses pas la me
Par la voie o?ses pas, o?ses pas la me
Par la voie o?ses pas, o?ses pas la me
Par la voie o?ses pas, o?ses pas la me
O?ses pas la me
She loves me
Yeah, yeah...


11.Are You Experienced?

Lyrics:Jimi Hendrix
Music:Jimi Hendrix

If you can just get your mind together,
And come on across to me.
We'll hold hands
And then we'll watch the sunrise from the bottom of the sea.
But first, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
I have (I have). I've.
I know you probably scream and cry,
But your little world won't let you go.
But who in your mealsy little world are you trying to prove
To you that you're made of gold.
So, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
I have (I have). I have been.
Trumpets and violins I hear in the distance.
I think they're calling our names.
Maybe now you can live and that you would.
If you're lonely,
Hold my hand.
But first, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
I have.


12.Thief

She wears her dress high
As high as she pulls her hat down low.
She's seeking out the places
Those other people can't go and hold her.
Untouched by the sea,
She's walking on water when she walks in her sleep.
She's dragging me through places
I didn't want to be seen.
She's a liar,
As I am a thief.
Because of you I came,
Because of you I leave.
I wanna know (I wanna know)
Why the monsters that hurt you so
Don't look like those things that
We battled so long ago.
And I thought I did my part,
When I pulled you out of there.
That night you left foot marks on my wall.
You are my liar,
So I will be your thief.
Because of you I came,
Because of you I leave.
Because of you we are home now.


13.Full Moon, Empty Heart

Sleep in now, now.
Sleep in now, now, now.
It's still night out.
Sleep in.
Don't look at me
Looking back at you,
Out the window backwards,
Out the window backwards.
Sleep.
See this child twice stolen from me,
Out the window backwards,
Out the window backwards.
Sleep in now, now.
Sleep in now, now, now.
Sleep now.
Now fall to the bed,
Put your hand in your hair.
Now fall to the tile,
Stick your finger in your eye.
That's the only way you cry.
Hey now.
Hey now.
Full moon pass the window sideways.
Hey now.
Hey now.
Sleep in now, now.
Sleep in now, now.
Sleep in now, now.
Sleep. Sleep. Sleep.


14.Now They'll Sleep

Mm mm, Mm mm, Mm mm, Mm mm, Mm mm, Mm mm, Mm mm, Oh.
Now I've lost the plot.
I'm not the hero I could be,
But not the dog I was.
Kind of common cry,
Kind of common living lie.
Color my fast fading heart.
People laugh at anything,
And things just fall apart.
Kind of common cry,
Kind of common living lie.
You know the shape my breath will take before I let it out.
Stand like you did when I was beauty-marked in your eyes.
Now they'll sleep on lies.
Now eyes burn circles in the dark,
And when the mirror talks to me,
I listen with my heart.
Kind of common cry,
Kind of common living lie.
You know the shape my breath will take before I let it out.
Stand like you did when I was beauty-marked in your eyes.
Now they'll sleep all right.
You know the shape my breath will take before I let it out.
Stand like you did when I was beauty-marked in your eyes.
Stand like you did when I was beauty-marked in your eyes.
One common cry do do do do.
One common cry do do do do.
One common cry do do do do.
One common cry do do do do oh-ooo.


15.Lilith

In my garden
We were golden
Then you walked away
In my garden
You were something, there
You walked to me
Buried in my garden
I see you there
Buried in my garden
I will catch you there
That once, in my garden
Broken my shell
That once in my garden

Be there in my garden
Be there in my garden

In my garden
We were golden
Then you walked away
In my garden
We were something there
You walked away
Buried in your garde
I'll see you there
In my garden
I will catch you there
I was in my garden
Buried myself
I was in my garden
Buried myself

Be there in my garden
Be there in my garden


16.Slow Dog

Meet him by the road.
There's a dog went running,
Picking through spit out leaves
A dog won't even touch.
Meant to shoot that dog long ago,
Just can't leave that dog alone.
Maria carry a rifle.
Maria carry a dog on her back.
That dog is hit again.
That slow dog is hit again,
With his see-thru skin,
The kind of skin you can see through.
He's shot again.
He's shot again.
He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a.
He's shot again.
He's shot again.
He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a.
Heal me by a river.
Man retires his wife says,
But she was so sad and sick.
His heart breaks in the mud.
Thought I'd leave this world by twenty-one.
Couldn't leave that dog alone.
Maria carry a rifle.
Maria carry a dog on her back.
That dog is hit again.
That slow dog is hit again,
With his see-thru skin,
The kind of skin you can see through.
He's shot again.
He's shot again.
He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a.
He's shot again.
He's shot again.
He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a.
Maria carry a rifle.
Maria carry a dog on her back.
Maria carry you on her back.


17.Dream On Me

Hey bitchery,
You stole enough from me.
I gotta go.
I gotta go home now
In this misery.
You've had enough of me.
I gotta go.
I gotta go home now
Where there's easy love,
And there's easy life.
Dream on me
When you sleep.
Keep your head
Where you said it would be.
Dream on me
When you sleep.
Keep your head like you said.
Hey bitchery,
You stole enough from me.
I gotta go.
I gotta go home now
In this misery.
I've had enough of me.
I gotta go.
I gotta go home now
Where there's easy love,
And there's easy life.
Dream on me
When you sleep.
Keep your head where you said it would be.
Dream on me
When you sleep.
Keep your head like you said,
And you said, like you said, like you said.
Dream on me X3


18.Sweet Ride

Climbing out,
We stumble around,
All smoky and soaked to the bone.
I carry the crown of a girl underground.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
I'm down for a sweet ride,
So follow me down.
Once was lost now am found.
This is my dream.
Coming down,
And smiling too loud.
Smoking and soaked to the bone,
We wear my mistake like a crown.
Once was lost now am found.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
I'm down.
I'm down for a sweet ride.
(I lost him too).
I'm down for a sweet ride.
(And my vow made it new).
I'm down for a sweet ride,
(I lost it too).
So follow me down.
Once was lost now am found.
Once was lost now am found.
This is my dream.
