1.40 Years

I was born in the jungle
With the sickening smell of cinnamon in the air
I was born in a white hole and i can't believe the colors here
They stalk on a circle
I've never been blessed with elephant's memory
I'm riding a red line nowhere

Refrain

If it takes 40 years for the gun to be paid for
If it takes 40 years i'll put the money away
If it takes 40 years to get the things that i need sir
If it takes 40 years i'll walk the thunder and the rain

I was born in a good home
Where the rising cost of raising children
Was not a factor and you can't believe the things it does to me
I feel with the white noise (?)
Well i never did much of anything anyway
Jump n a big train nowhere
On a big train nowhere

Refrain

I wanna buy me a good heart, and a conscience, maybe raise some
children
I wanna get me a good wife, and god and god and god and god
And i'll start me a new life with a six foot color television
I'll start me a new life somewhere

I was born on a warm night
On the right coast, southeastern america
Dead on arrival, but you can't believe the things you hear
I'll fly me a white plane over water over blue and green and
land in the
Ocean somewhere


2.A Good Year For The Roses

I can hardly stand the sight of lipstick
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray.
Lying cold the way you left them,
But at least your lips caressed them
While you packed.
Or the lip print o a half-filled cup
Of coffee that you poured
And didn't drink.
But at least you thought you wanted it
Which is so much more than i can say for me.

Refrain

It's been a good year for the roses
Many blooms still linger there.
The lawn could stand another mowing
It's funny, i don't even care
But as you turned and walked away
As the door behind you closes
The only thing i thought to say
Was what a good year for the roses

After three, four years of marriage
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed
I guess the reason we're not talking,
Is there's so little left to say that we haven't said
While a million thoughts go racing through my mind
I guess i haven't said a word
From the bedroom, the familiar sound
Of our one baby's crying goes unheard


3.A Mona Lisa

Heard my lisa say
'i can't believe you could leave me looking this way.'
When ever music plays... i smile and i can't feel anything
All i want to say.. is everything's all right and i'm ok

Heard my lisa today
'say he wants to paints the same me every single day'
'what's wrong with him anyway?'
Cuz sometimes i can't feel anything
All i want to say.. is everything's all right and i'm ok..i'm ok

I see my body mapped before me.. and a flying coffin through the
sky
The same things after for me...we'll hang there waiting for me
Upon a wall outside of me yeah

Heard my lisa say
'god blesses the same things every single day.'
How'd he miss me anyway? 7 days and i can't feel anything

All i want to say.. is everything's all right and i'm ok
All i want to say.. is everything's all right and i'm ok (7x)


4.August And Everything After

They're wakin' up mama 'cause everybody else has got ____
She makes a little action with her head. rolls over
And she says she's gonna sleep for a couple of minutes more
I've said 'i'm sorry' to mama for the cold hear___
I've said 'i'm sorry', by now, at least once to j____'
She says, 'i've forgotten what i'm supposed to do
And it slips my mind what i'm supposed to say?
I'm getting older and older and older
And always a little farther out of the way
You look into her eyes and it's more than you hear
In august and everything after, you get a little ____

I stumbled into washington square just as the sun b____
I walked across the lawn to the cathedral
And lay down in the shadow of st. ___
I'm just one of three late model children waiting for the king
But there ain't no sign of elvis in san fransisco
It's just me, and i'm playing this rock and roll thing
She wants to be just like me
I want every damn thing i can see.
One day you're daddy's little angel,
Next day you're everything he wanted you to be
They dress you up in white satin
And they give you your very own pair of wings
In august and everything after, i'm after everything.


5.Baby, I'm A Big Star Now

Gonna get out on the road tonight
I got a hollow in my head

Checking it up,
Baby,one more time for you
Checking it up,
Until the pot hits the sky

It's like i think
I'm sick of cocaine
Got a feeling like
It's running in my brains

Checking it up,
Baby,one more time for you
Checking it up,
Until the pot hits the sky
Even the best best years
Leave a lot to be desired
When they pass you by

All these seasons
All this time
(is getting passed?)
Until they leave you
All behind
Lay me down in the circle
Where the spotlight shines
All this pleasure gets me high

Some people will cut you
Untill you're bleeding
But not me
I just want to do it to myself

Checking it up,
Baby,one more time for you
Checking it up,
Until the pot hits the sky
Even the best years
Are a waste of time
But,baby,i'm a big star now

All these seasons,
All this time
(is getting passed?)
Until they leave you
All behind
Lay me down in a circle
Where the spotlight shines
All this pleasure gets me high

All these seasons,
All this time
(is getting passed?)
Until they leave you
All behind
Lay me down in the circle
Where the spotlight shines
(looking?) back on the people
Who draw the line
Put your faith in the answers
That you can find
Hit the (?) (phone?) running down
That highway line
Say a prayer for the ones
You left behind
All this pleasure gets me high

I don't want to give it back......


6.Barely Out Of Tuesday

I woke up wednesday morning
Staring at the ceiling
Hoping for deliverance
From the distances in you.

This room feels like an oven
Somewhere south of nowhere
And north of nothing.

I'm barely out of tuesday
Seen seven hours of wednesday
I guess i've found new friends
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.

Can't you see her
Waiting there down by the sea?
There's a light on,
But the lock's in the door for me
If you see me coming home,
Turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.

You get me at a distance.
Fifty-two weeks later,
They're still staying.
Standing in my basement.
Making my way
Waiting for the telphone
To deliver me away.

I left from minnesota
Where the winter's getting colder
Keep the locks changing
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.
Can't you see her waiting there down by the sea?
If you see me coming home,
Turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.

The farthest distance
Getting around you to me
What's the point of all this patience?
It's not your nature
To just keep what you need.
You got some pictures of me.

I woke up wednesday morning,
Sometime wednesday evening,
Hoping for a piece of something easy to believe.
When you live out on the border
Of everything and nothing
There's nothing but waking and dreaming.
I'm barely out of tuesday.
There's no one to receive me,
And nothing is changing.
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.

Can't you see her
Waiting there down by the sea?
There's a light on,
But there's nobody there for me.
If you see me coming home
Turn me away
'cause everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.


7.Bulldog

Hey now bulldog, don't you rush in with your eyes wild.
Hey there big bear, take a moment to decide.
All these angels scared to walk the wire line.
'stand tall, angels', says the bulldog with a smile.

They get you in a corner shut your eyes
They come at you at night.
They get you in a corner shut your eyes
They come at you at night.
One less bell to warn ya
One more chance to say goodbye.

I don't think i understand you.
I don't really think i do.
I don't think i understand you.
I don't really think i do.

Hey louise what's the barrier between love and me?
And how far is it from long and need?
What are you supposed to mean to me?
What do you mean to me?

They get you in a corner shut your eyes
They come at you at night.
They get you in a corner shut your eyes
They come at you at night.
One less bell to warn ya
One more song to play
I'm going back to california
Gonna get your chance to say goodbye

Hey matthew is anybody mean to you?
And don't you harbor points of view?
Secretly believe you're due?

I don't think i understand you.
I don't really think i do.
I don't think i understand you.
I don't really think i do.

Well ya got one less bell to warn ya
One more song to play
I'm going back to california
Gonna get your chance to say goodbye
One less bell to warn ya
One last chance to say goodbye.


8.Caravan

And the caravan is on its way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama, mama, oh will you never run away?
She laughs playing with her radio
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
And the caravan has all my friends
And they will stay with me until the end
Gypsies robbing sleep in the road
Tell me everything i need to know
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Turn up your radio
Let me hear your song
Switch on your electric light
So we can get down to what is really wrong
Because i long just to hold you tight
So that i can feel you
Sweet lady, oh mother night
I shall revere you
Turn it up
Turn it up
Little bit higher radio
Turn it up


9.Carmelita

well, i hear mariachi static on my radio
And the tubes they glow in the dark
And i'm there with her in ensenada
And i'm here in echo park

Carmelita, hold me tighter
I think i'm sinking down...
And i'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town

Well i'm sittin' here playing solitaire
With my pearl handled deck
The county won't give me no more methadone
And they cut off your welfare check

Carmelita, hold me tighter
I think i'm sinking down...
And i'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town

Well i pawned my smith corona
And i went to meet my man
He hangs out down on alvarado street
At the pioneer chicken stand

Carmelita, hold me tighter
I think i'm sinking down
And i'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town

Carmelita, hold me tighter
I think i'm sinking down
And i'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town


10.Carriage

if anything it should have been a better thing
From underneath you staring at the ceiling
There's another world of chocoloate bars and baseball cards
That hides inside of all this tension that i'm feeling

Yeah it's all inside of you.
It was all inside of you.

Surprise, surprise.
I miss your hair, you miss my eyes
All all this solitude is my confidence eroding.
So we slide inside of someone's mouth and someone's eyes
Until, there's the sound of something intimate exploding.

It was all inside of you.

I wish that i was anesthized and sterilized
Then i wouldnt have this evidence congealing.
Surprise, surprise.
Another pair of lips and eyes.
And that is the consquence of actually feeling.

It was all inside of you.


11.Einstein On The Beach

Albert's always sincere, he's a sensivitive type
His intentions are clear, he wanna be well-liked
Better think of nothing, then are we anything?
Is it better to be better than to be anything?

And albert's vision is blooming uncontrolled
All his wings are slowly sinking

The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
All the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again

Einstein's down on the beach staring into the sand
Cause everything he believes in is shattered
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway-ay
We all get burned as:

One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall

The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again

Albert's waiting in the sun
On a field american
For the cause of some inflated form of hit and run

One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall

The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again

Albert's fallen on the sun
Cracked his head wide open

The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallin, fallin

The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again

No never be together again
No no never never never again, uh huh
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway


12.Four White Stallions

She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
Four strong angels at her command to send
Four more seasons, for all thats broken to mend

I got four good reasons why i cant go back there again

She had skin like a statue, milky white and pure
Carved by an artist who's hand is demure
Got a mind like a sabre
Razor sharp and sure

God how i hate myself for still wanting her

Tell me its nicer dreaming, visions soft and sure
No way to find theres nothing left to me and her
Nothing more but a heart still at war

She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
Four strong angels already sent
Four more seasons for all thats broken to mend...


13.Good Luck

Larry's in vegas with some chick from l.a.
The best things are sevens; the sex is just okay
'so please stay,' she says, 'just stay.'

Cause there's a show at eleven
The drinks are all free
Maybe you can do better for yourself
But not me
So please stay, keep me company

All the while thinking this is the good luck
He stays with her most of the time
It takes time to make these machines run
And people are so unkind

Gets kind of nervous
When it used to be hard
She takes the edges off evenings
In bedrooms and back seats of big cars

All the while thinking this is the good luck
He stays with her most of the time
It takes time to make these machines work
And people are so unkind

She looks in the mirror
To make sure she's here
She keeps disappearing and dreaming
Of movie stars, weddings
Nothing is happening!
He tries not to notice
She thinks he doesn't care
Capture yourself in a jar
And just say there
Until you vanish to thin air

All the while thinking this is the good luck
He stays with her most of the time
But he ain't got time while she's riding in black cars
And pokes at the sky to see if he can make stars
And people are so unkind
People are so unkind
People are so unkind
People are so unkind . . .


14.Jumpin' Jesus

Jumpin jesus my oh my
He's got a great big bottle of sunshine
Jumpin jesus why oh why
Take the time to get inside
To get inside

So what's a wall with so much yellow for?
I don't know what it's for
So what's a wall has so much yellow for?
I don't know what it's for

Jumpin jesus my oh my
He's got a great big bottle of sunshine
Jumpin jesus why oh why
Take the time to get inside
To get inside get inside get inside get inside get inside

Odessa in desert he lives with his life
And his child on a house boat
Yea he likes sunflowers and big picture frames and vangoes

Jumpin jesus my oh my
He's got a great big bottle of sunshine
Jumpin jesus why oh why
Take the time to get inside
To get inside get inside get inside get inside get inside
Na na na na na na na na
Lala la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la laaaaa laaaa
laaaa


15.Lightning

It's crazy but often clear
But often clear
We shimmer and disappear
In color, in black and white
Black and white
We slowly fade out of sight

But these days were lit by lightning
These lights all were white

It's crazy but somehow clear
Somehow clear
We ride in silence out of fear
We spoke and soon come alive
Come alive
We prefer the silence of the blind

But these days were lit by lightning
These lights all were white
These days were lit by lightning
Of sharp,light,sharp,white,light,hard,good,white

We're crazy but often kind
Often kind
Enrage and in violence blind
You gather, and that alone
That alone
We race in small circles home

But these days were lit by lightning
These lights are were white
These days were lit by lightning
Of sharp, white, light

These days were lit by lightning
These lights are were white
These days were lit by light


16.Love And Addiction

Put on your bad self
Get out your party dress
And fix up your makeup
Try to make a good impression

This is a new world
We're all the same here
Well, maybe not the same
But you know what i mean

I've got everything that you want
I've got everything and
Someday i'll be president
And i've got everything that you want
I've got everything
Except the single thing you really need

Separate love from addiction
It's not the same
I know i see desperation pulling my strings

Hey, eliza, now what do you want?
I play piano, and i sing like a hummingbird
And, oh, i forgot that
Hummingbirds don't sing
It doesn't matter really
You know what i mean

I've got everything that you want
I've got everything
And it's a brand new world, eliza
I've go everything that you want
I've got everything
Except the single thing you really need

Set away blood and rejection
I know i see the generation staring back at me
Wasted away
Wasting my time
This picture you see
Is nothing like the one you wanted painted of me

Well, i deserve this
That's all right with me
(??) you should know (??)
It wouldn't be the first time
You know, it's happened a couple of times before
Man, i don't even expect much anymore
But anyway
It's not as if i were waiting for you to come and make it all
okay

Seperate between blood and rejection
I know i see visions of people running over me
Yeah, wasted away
Wasting my time
This picture you see
Is nothing like the one i wanted painted of me

Put on your bad self
Get out your party dress
And fix up your makeup
Try to make a good impression


17.Maggie May

Wake up, maggie, i think i got some-thing to say to you:
It's late september and i really should be back at school.
I know i keep you amused, but i feel i'm being used.
Oh, maggie, i couldn't have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts.
The morning sun, when it's in your face really shows your age.
But that don't worry me none; in my eyes you're everything.
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax,
Oh, maggie i couldn't have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my soul that's a pain i can do without.
All i need was a friend to lend a guiding hand.
But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover your wore me
out.
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the
head,
Oh, maggie i couldn't have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, 'cause you did'nt want to be alone.
You stole my heart i couldn't leave you if i tried.
I suppose i could collect my books and get back to school.
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool.
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
Oh, maggie, i wish i'd never seen your face.
You made a first class fool out of me,
But i'm as blind as a fool can be.
You stole my heart, but i love you anyway.
Maggie, i wish i never seen your face.
I'll get on back home one of these days.


18.Margery

In the still water she lies down
Shaking in the press of sunlight
We rolled into lexington
She shakes off the drop of daylight
Water beading up her chest
Bleeding down between her knees
Rivers in kentucky flow
Between the bluegrass wavy seas
But oh, margery
Twists the knife once more inside of me

Breathless with anticipation
Baited breathers set their hooks
Tuck their heads beneath the high grass
And lie and wait beside the brooks

For instance? pushing slowly through
Frustration leading back along
The alleys of a childhood
Will not release us willingly

But oh, margery
Sticks the knife in while i coundn't the sea

Dust me off and shut me down
And dream of where i haven't been
Close the door inside my heart
Stuck in the south atlantic wind

I have hollow eyes
Haunting only to myself
Even so, i can't stop calling
This great big hollows in my self

I took the train form california
To the far side of the continent
Woke up in kentucky
Where a wedding was about to end

I looked up at anna
She turned back to look at me
It's best to kill the ones that matter
Render blind the ones who see

But oh, margery
Takes the blade and walks away from me
Oh, margery
Love like blood is pouring out of me
Oh, margery
My heart won't stop bleeding over me baby
Oh, i can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
Oh, i can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind


19.Open All Night

She said hey
Smoke at three
Georgia moonlight
It's three a.m.
I've been driving all night
Got a funny air
Red-brown hair
In the porch light
She said 'we're open all night
So won't you come inside
It's gonna be alright'

She said child
I said i'm a little bit unstable
She said 'honey, i will help you if i'm able
There's a bottle of relief on the table
And we're open all night
So won't you come inside
It's gonna be alright'

She said 'i was born the year the rockets landed
Circa 1969 and i got stranded
Yeah, but the comet's getting close
And i can't stand it.'
She said 'we're open all night
So won't you come inside
It's gonna be alright'

She said hey
Smoke at three
Georgia moonlight
It's eight a.m.
I've been drinking all night
And there is nothing i will not do to make it alright
She said 'we're open all night
So won't you come inside
It's gonna be alright'


20.Private Archipelago

She lives alone on her private archipelago
With the palm trees and her seashells

She sits in the waves all day
She's scared of dying and she wants to keep it that way

She sends a boat out on the sea with a little note for me
It says why are all the girls so hungry
Say why are all the girls so hungry
Why are all the boys so lonely

Why can't anybody see me
And why can't anybody hear me
And why won't anyone believe me
Hey monkey, why you gotta leave me
Monkey, why you gotta leave me

Why can't you leave a light on .... for me


21.Shallow Days

Mary jane says it's all right
She's just around the corner from the main light.
Any day now, it's all right
She's standing on the precipice of big time.

And i know i'm a little uptight,
I've got to go before the sun shines.
We're just a couple small people squeezing out a life,
We need a little good time.

It's not far from here,
Mary comes and goes.
Drifting through the scenery of the shallow days below,
That is anybody knows.

You follow trains out of town and they vanish somewhere under
the horizon.
Yeah well i saw mary jane dragged her shadow down the tracks,
Stare off in the distance.

It's not far from here,
Mary waves hello.
Smiling though she's sinking in the shallow days below,
I can't find a way out of here.

Out on the road again,
I'm much, much too concerned about mary jane.
I'm all alone again,
I like what she said, not what it means.
She leaves me drowning through the shallow days, down below.

You know i heard a band playing waltzes in a grange hall
The sun is sinking lower.
People staring, mary jane humming softly to herself,
Nobody really knows her.
Any day now it's all right,
She tells herself that this will be the last time.
Mary jane pulls her hair back and wonders what she'll do with
all her
Freetime.

Not too far from here,
Mary turns to go.
Smiling while the waltz begins, dancing down the road

Hey hey mr. freedom,
What are we supposed to think?
'cause i'm a very tiny person and it worries me.
I'm all alone again,
I like what she says, not what it means.
She leaves me drowning in the shallow days way down below.

'i'm sorry', she said,
'i know it's not the kind of thing you want.'
I'm falling, falling down.
'i'm sorry', she said.
'i know i'm not the kind of girl you want.'
We're falling, falling, falling, falling down.


22.Suffocate

Good morning baby, guess you wanna touch me now
You wanna put your hands on my face
Tell me you love me,
Tell me you need me
Don't say you love me
Don't say anything...
'cause i am not that kind of man, i'm much less than you think i
am...

So many people are just like jesus,
They drag all this weight, you can't see anything better...
Don't know where they've been
Or where they are
Well tell me what the hell's the reason when we never get
anywhere...
But you want me to say 'hey, it's okay...'
But i'm so dizzy baby, just get the hell away from me...

How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't even sleep when you're with me...
I'm sick of summertime
I know, all of the best things in life are unkind
To be everything i could be, anything
But all the time i'm thinking, 'if i only had a pair of
wings...'
But you want touch me
Just get your hands off me
Don't touch me
And baby, i can't see that you see

How can you see?
How can you breathe?
I can't feel a thing when you're with me...

I can't take it this way, i hope you understand,
Don't you fucking touch me
I can hardly stand to look at you

How can you breathe?
How can you see?
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't even sleep when you're with me
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't feel...
I can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...


23.The Ghost In You

A man in my shoes runs a light
All the papers lie tonight
But falling over you
Is the news of the day

Angels fall like rain
And love, is all of heaven way
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
The ghost in you she don't fade away

The race is on, i'm on your side
But hearing you my engines died
I'm in the mood for you
Or for running away

All the stars come down in you
But love, love, love you cant give it away
Inside you the time moves and she dont fade
The ghost in you she dont fade
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade away
Dont you know she don't fade

Dont you go it makes no sense
And all these talking supermen
Just take away the time just to get it away
Aint it just like the rain
Cause love, love, love, love is only heaven away
Inside you the time moves and she dont fade
The ghost in you she don't fade away

Inside you the time moves and she dont fade away
The ghost in you she don't fade

A man in my shoes runs a light
But all the papers lie tonight
Falling over you is the news of the day
And love will not fade away
And love love love will not fade away


24.The Greening Of America

She's closing all the shades
She finds the daylight just a little freighting
She pulls the peddles overhead each day
But she's opening her business is blooming nightly
And every time it does it gets me tazy
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and i just go crazy
The greening of americas progressing smoothly
Cuz she's choosing me

It's later then i said
And all the worlds a shade of black and purple
Everybody else has gone to bed
But when she makes me happy i just fly in circles

And every time she does i just get teary
The color of head changing everyday
A little puff of wind and she's always near me
The greening of america is progressing nicely
It's all right with me

Ba ba ba ba na na na na na etc.

If there's another life, and if get to chose i'd like
To be a daisy
I'll stay up waiting for my dusky wife
To open and get high with just my jasmine baby

And every time she does it gets me crazy
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and i just get crazy
The greening of americas progressing nicely
It's all right with me-every time she does, just get teary
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and she's always near me
The greening of americas progressing smoothly
Cuz she's choosing me


25.The Richest Man

If i had a dollar
For every time
You broke my heart,
Messed up my mind

Well i'd be the richest man
I'd be the richest man
...in the world

If bad times paid interest
I'd have you to thank
I'd be driving a new car,
Have money in the bank

I'd be the richest man
I'd be the richest man
...in the world

Baby..money can't buy love
The kind i dream of is so hard to find
For a good womans touch in the morning when i rise
Well baby i'd give up every single dime

Money cant buy love
The kind i dream of is so hard to find
For a good woman's touch in the mrning when i rise
Baby i'd give up every single dime

If teardrops were diamonds from the african mines
If heartaches were silver
My whole life would shine
And i'd be the richest man
I'd be the richest man
...in the world

Baby.


26.We're Only Love

Who built the ball that is this earth?
Gave me life, and water for my thirst.
Home for a heart till death from birth
And we're only love, at it's best or worst.

Love calling your name
I will live on
Calling your name

Who wrote the pages of our lives?
In black and white, and taught me wrong from right
It's your heart that held you tight
But we're only love
Spin me around and round and round

Love calling your name
I will live on
Calling your name

And the world seems like my enemy
The waterfall of frowns
And the wave of life will capture me
And i'm falling down upon love

C'mon now darling
I'm falling falling down on love
I'm falling down, falling down on love
I'm falling down on love


27.What Is Life

What i feel, i can't say
But my love is there for you anytime of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then i'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side

What i know, i can do
If i give my love now to everyone like you
But if it's not love that you need
Then i'll try my best to make ev'rything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side

What i feel, i can't say
But my love is there for you any time of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then i'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side
Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side
What is my life without your love
Tell me, who am i without you, by my side
(fade:)
Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me who am i without you by my side


28.Wise Blood

I'm an outcast that no one can save anymore
And the days of my youth, have all long gone by now
I was the kind of boy the devil would offer a smoke or a drink
to
Or a ride downtown to some god forsaken land

One sunday morning at dawn you know they baptized my soul
But they held me down so long christ i almost drowned
Yeah i was the kind of boy who never learned to smile
So i kicked and i screamed
'till i tore myself lose from all these great big hands oh yeah

Chorus:
Wiseblood knows how to walk the way the wind blows
Wiseblood hears grace whisper right behind

My mommma, she turned around and said
'little boy you better wake up....cause your a walking dead'
Oh she was the kind a girl who never touched a smoke or a drink
She just smoldered like an empty church left to burn in the wind
