It was only one hour ago
It was all so different then
Nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did
This flesh and bone
It's just the way that we are tied in
But there's no one home
I grieve...
For you
You leave me
So hard to move on
Still loving what's gone
Still life carries on
Carries on and on and on
And on...
The news that truly shocks
Is the empty, empty page
While the final rattle rocks
Its empty, empty cage
And I can't handle this
I grieve...
For you
You leave me
Let it out and move on
Missing what's gone
I said life carries on
I said life carries on and on
And on...
Life carries on in the people I meet
In every one that's out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
The rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Just the car that we ride in
The home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Did I dream this belief?
Or did I believe this dream?
How I will find relief?
I grieve.
There's a light,... when my baby's in my arms...
There's a light,... when the window shades are drawn
Hesitate .. when I feel I may do harm to her...
Wash it off,... cuz this feeling we can share...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Byzantine... is reflected in our pond...
There's a cloud,... but the water remains calm...
Reaching in,... the sun's fingers clutch the dawn to pass...
Even out,... it's a precious thing to bear...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Yes I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
It's not in my past to presume...
Love can keep on moving,... in both directions...
How to be happy and true...
Is the quest we're taking on together...
Taking on,.. on, on, on, on...
Taking on,... on, on, on, on...
There's a light,... when my baby's in my arms...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Yes I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
and I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
i surrender myself
naked around you
worlds of bliss
ignorance in smiles
longing for security
emptyness in ourselves
and as i lay here
broken on the floor
I know for sure
I'll be back here again
trial and error
cirlces in time
evolution of love
and again the patrol:
For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
Hit me hard enough to wake me
And lead me wild to your dark roads
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
And let the blood fall in my mouth
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
And even better:
My lips are shakin
My nails are bit off
Its been a month since Ive heard myself talk
Only advantage this lifes got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea
And I fought back in my mind
Never lets me be right...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it dont show...
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i...
On empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions
Dont know who I could even ask
So Ill just lie down and wait for the dream
Where Im not ugly and youre lookin at me
And Ill stay in bed...
Oh, little Ive seen there
If just once I could be loved...
Oh, Id stare back at me
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me close at night
Oh, I paid the price...
Never held you in your eyes
My lips are shakin
My nails are bit off
Its been a month since Ive heard myself talk
Only advantage this lifes got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea
And I fought back in my mind
Never lets me be right...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it dont show...
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i...
On empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions
Dont know who I could even ask
So Ill just lie down and wait for the dream
Where Im not ugly and youre lookin at me
And Ill stay in bed...
Oh, little Ive seen there
If just once I could be loved...
Oh, Id stare back at me
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me close at night
Oh, I paid the price...
Never held you in your eyes
damn it.....just what I was about to post.......thanks!
believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.
I have eaten so much gold I crapped excellence - drtyfrnk29
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
Nobody else here, baby
No one else here to blame
No one to point the finger
It's just you and me and the rain
Nobody made you do it, no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff, the stuff of country songs
Hey if God will send His angels
And if God would send a sign
And if God will send His angels
Would everything be alright?
God has got his phone off the hook, baby
Would he even pick up if he could?
It's been awhile since we saw that child
Hanging around this neighborhood
See his mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are blistered
The high street never looked so low
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the cops collecting for the cons
If God will send His angels
And if God would send a sign
And if God will send His angels
Where do we go?
Jesus never let me down
You know Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on
So where is the hope and where is the faith...and the love?
What's that you say to me?
Does love...light up your Christmas tree?
The next minute you're blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news
If God will send His angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if God will send His angels
Then I don't have to know how
And I don't need to know why
Then I don't want to promise
And I don't want to lie...just when I need to
To know
Where do we go?
You and me
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible
It's destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Insufferable
But for the last time
You're everything that I want and ask for
You're all that I'd dreamed
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul and beautiful you
Don't understand
Don't feel me now
I will breathe
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn
In my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
And for the first time
I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound
In my time
I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
You're mine forever now
Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Because the world is round it turns me on.
Because the world is round – Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
Because the wind is high it blows my mind.
Because the wind is high– Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
Because the sky is blue it makes me cry.
Because the sky is blue– Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
all the love gone bad,
turned my world to black
tattooed all i see,
all that i am, all i'll ever be.
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
i know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky,
So this is the new year.
And i don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
For self assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogs bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that could hold us back.
There'd be no distance that could hold us back
There'd be no distance that could hold us back
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
The glove compartment isn't accurately named
And everybody knows it.
So i'm proposing a swift orderly change.
Cause behind its door there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
And all i find are souvenirs from better times
Before the gleam of your taillights fading east
To find yourself a better life.
I was searching for some legal document
As the rain beat down on the hood
When i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
And that's how this idea was drilled into my head
Cause it's too important
To stay the way it's been
There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night
There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night (up all night)
When i'm lying awake at night.
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
:cool:
happy, happy 2007!
peace & love all!
U KNEW IT!! Hahahaha, love that song, almost the 1st thing I did before everything else, after I woke up and saved 2 relations of mates. SO THIS IS THE NEW YEAR?
HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR MY FRIENDS(, the fish, dolphins and mice)!
Summer stretching on the grass... summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue
It's going to get stickier too...
It's been a long hot summer
let's go undercover
Don't try too hard to think... don't think at all
I'm not the only one starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb i'm staring at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to go blind
There's an insect in your ear if you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Do you want to see what the scratching brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach...
Will we ever live in peace?
Cause those that can't do often have to
Those that can't do often have to... preach
To the ones staring at the sun...
Afraid of what you'll find if you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb... staring at the sun
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind
Intransigence is all around... military is still in town
Armour plated suits and ties... daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle God is good but will HE listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something I'm missing I left in the duty free
Though you never really belonged to me
You're not the only one staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you stepped back inside
I'm not sucking my thumb I'm staring at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to go blind
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we began
Yes, I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won
So I took what's mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over, but it won't stop there
I am here for you if you'd only care
You touched my heart, you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
Love is blind and that I knew when
My heart was blinded by you
I've kissed your lips and held your hand
Shared your dreams and shared your bed
I know you well, I know your smell
I've been addicted to you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I am a dreamer, but when I wake
You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take
And as you move on, remember me
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile
I've watched you sleeping for a while
I'd be the father of your child
I'd spend a lifetime with you
I know your fears and you know mine
We've had our doubts, but now we're fine
And I love you, I swear that's true
I cannot live without you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
And I still hold your hand in mine...
In mine when I'm asleep
And I will bear my soul in time
When I'm kneeling at your feet
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray
I could break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
WANT TO FEEL THE WARM BREEZE
SLEEP UNDER A PALM TREE
FEEL THE RUSH OF THE OCEAN
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jetplane
Far away
And break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging with revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
Gotta keep movin' on, movin on'
Fly away
Break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
Take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Break away...
Break away.
I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away"
I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair
chorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin' Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin
I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there's got to be another way
Who are you?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees
I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?
"This here's a REQUEST!"
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns
10/25/13 Hartford
Why deny
All the troubles when combined
With the missing links
It don't feel like
Home now,...
That you're gone
All the troubles
suddenly explained infinitum
You're always wishing and
Never here at
Home
You
All the dreams we shared and
Lights we turned on
But the house is getting dark
And I don't want to know your past
But together share the dawn
And I won't need
Nothing else
Cause when we're dead
We would've had it all
And died
I would've fallen from the sky
Til you
Parachutes have opened now
Heaven knows if there's a ceiling
come so low with the kneeling
Please know that
I got
All the friends I'm needing
Before my light goes out
As the doors are closing now
And far away will be my home
And to grasp this, I don't know
And I don't need
Further back and forth, a wave will break on me today
And love,... Wish the world could go again with love
One cant seem to have enough
And war,.... Break the sky and tell me what it's for
I'll travel there on my own
And love,.... What a different life
Had I not found this love with you
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
It's nothin,
It's so normal
You just stand there
I could say so much,
But I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinkin if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point we would think so
And everyone here
Knows everyone here is thinking 'bout somebody else
Well, it's best if we all keep it under our hats And I couldn't tell if anyone here was feelin the way I do,
But I'm lonely now,
And I don't know how to get it back to good
This don't mean that, you own me, well
This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
Yeah, but things worked out just like you wanted...too
If you see me out you don't know me,
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
Ah, to figure out just what I'm gonna do
Cause everyone here
Hates everyone here for doing just like they do
And it's best if we all keep this quiet instead
And I couldn't tell
Why everyone here was doing me like they do
But I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good
And everyone here
Is wondering what it's like to be with somebody else
And everyone here's to blame
And everyone here gets caught up in the pleasure or the pain
Yeah, well, everyone here hides shades of shame
Yeah, but looking inside we're the same, we're the same
And we're all grown now,
Yeah, but we don't know how
To get it back to good
Everyone here
Knows everyone here is thinking 'bout somebody else
And it's best if we all keep this
Under our heads, yeah, our heads
Yeah, see, I couldn't tell now,
If anyone here was feeling the way I do
But it's over now,
Yeah. I don't know how,
Guess it's over now,
There's no getting back to good
Meet me here
On November 11th, come alone.
Bring your mouth
& selective irreverence
we’ll both see stars. Just…
one more tongue kiss before the sky it falls
out from this cloud we’re hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Kill your doubt
With the coldest of weapons; confidence. No more words
just the sound of resplendent
tongues colliding.
One more tongue kiss before the sky it falls
out from this cloud we’re hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Here I am
there you are
on a wire connecting our hearts
there’s a string
that is tied
to a kite.
There’s a storm
in the sky
now the clouds become electric.
Here I am
there you are.
Could I…
Have a…
Kiss to send us off? A Kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!
A Kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A Kiss to send us off!
Seven am;
The garbage truck beeps as it backs up
And I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away.
Could I push rewind?
The credits traverse, signifying the end
But I missed the best part.
Could we please go back to start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Eleven am,
By now you would think that I would be up
But my bedsheets shade the heat of choices I've made
And what did I find?
I never thought I could want someone so much
'Cause now you're not here and I'm knee deep in that old fear.
Forgive my indecision... I am only a man.
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Twelve pm and my dusty telephone rings.
Heavy head up from my pillow, who could it be?
I hope its you.
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, the day has come and I want off that ride.
"This here's a REQUEST!"
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns
10/25/13 Hartford
Have I told you how good it feels to be me,
when I'm in you?
I can only stay clean
when you are around.
Don't let me fall.
If I close my eyes forever,
would it ease the pain?
Could I breathe again?
Maybe I'm addicted,
I'm out of control,
but you're the drug
that keeps me from dying.
Maybe I'm a liar,
but all I really know is
you're the only reason I'm trying.
I am wasted away,
I made a million mistakes.
Am I too late?
There is a storm in my head;
it rains on my bed
when you are not here.
I'm not afraid of dying,
but I am afraid of losing you.
Maybe I'm addicted,
I'm out of control,
but you're the drug
that keeps me from dying.
Maybe I'm a liar,
but all I really know is
you're the only reason I'm trying.
When you're lying next to me
love is going through to me.
Oh it's beautiful.
Everything is clear to me
'till I hit reality
and I lose it all...
I lose it all...
I lose it all.
I lose it all...
Nah nah nah
nah nah nah....
Nah nah nah nah nah nah.....
nah nah nah nah nah nah....
You're the only reason,
Yeah, you're the only reason I'm trying,
Oh, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying,
Don't want to lose it all,
Don't want to lose it all,
I'm trying, I'm trying..
I'm trying ...
Yeah, you know I'm addicted,
You know I'm addicted,
Yeah, you know I'm addicted....
"You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."
I'm floating down a river
Oars freed from their holes long ago
Lying face up on the floor of my vessel I marvel at the stars
And feel my heart overflow
Further down the river
Two weeks without my lover
I'm in this boat alone
Floating down a river named emotion
Will I make it back to shore
Or drift into the unknown
Further down the river
I'm building an antenna
Transmissions will be sent when I am through
Maybe we'll meet again further down the river
And share what we both discovered...
Then revel in the view
Chloe don't know better
Chloe's just like me, only beautiful
A couple of years of difference
But those lessons never learned
Chloe danced the tables in the French Quarter
She's always been given so I can't always make her laugh
But I'm proud to say
And I won't forget
Time spent laying by her side
Time spent laying by her side
And dreams like this must die
And a dream like this must die
Dreams like this must....
You ever heard the story of Mr. Faded Glory?
Said he who rides a pony must someday fall
I've been talkin' to my alter
Said life is what you make it
And if you make it death well then rest your soul away
Away, away, yeah
It's a broken kind of feeling
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a comin' better say your prayers
I wanna tell you that I love you
But does it really matter?
I just can't stand to see you dragging down again
Again, again, again
So I'm singing....
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Yes it does
I used to treat you like a lady
Now you're a substitute teacher
This bottle's not a pretty, not a pretty sight
I owe the man some money
So I'm turnin' over honey
You see Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time
Oh yeah
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Yes it does
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Like a crown of thorns
It's all who you know
So don't burn your bridges, woman
'Cause someday, yeah.
Last time I talked to you
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space
Laying underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling great
Watch the red orange glow
Watch it float away
Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
Gonna save you’re tired soul
You’re gonna save our lives
Turn on the radio to
Find you in satellite
I’m waiting for the sky to fall
I’m waiting for a sign
And all we are
Is all so far
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
Hope you remember me
When you’re homesick and need a change
I miss you’re purple hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you’ll come back some day
On a bed of nails I wait
I’m praying that you don’t burn out
Or fade away
And all we are
Is all so far
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay, i love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay...
this is my chance, this is my life
this is my hope in an alleyway
this is my choice, this is my voice
there may be no tomorrow, now
this is my plea, this is my need
this is my time for standing free
this is my staff, this is my day
and the world is never safe
it's okay, you know i love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay, it's okay
it's okay...
believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.
I have eaten so much gold I crapped excellence - drtyfrnk29
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
Yesterday I saw the sun shining
And the leaves were falling down softly
My cold hands needed a warm, warm touch
And I was thinking about you
Here I am looking for signs of leaving
You hold my hand, but do you really need me?
I guess it's time for me to let you know
I've been thinking about you
I've been thinking about only you
When you sail across the ocean waters
And you reach the other side safely
Could you smile a little smile for me?
'Cause I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about only you.
Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools said i, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
I looked at your face I saw that all the love had died
I saw that we had forgotten to take the time
I, I saw that you couldn't care less about what you do
Couldn't care less about the lies
You couldn't find the time to cry
We forgot about love
We forgot about faith
We forgot about trust
We forgot about us
Now our love's floating out the window
Our love's floating out the back door
Our love's floating up in the sky in heaven
Where it began back in God's hands
You said that you had said all that you had to say
You said baby it's the end of the day
And we gave a lot but it wasn't enough
We got so tired that we just gave up
We didn't respect it
We went and neglected it
We didn't deserve it
But I never expected this
Our love floated out the window
Our love floated out the back door
Our love floated up in the sky to heaven
It's part of a plan
It's back in God's hands
Back in God's hands
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

It was all so different then
Nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did
This flesh and bone
It's just the way that we are tied in
But there's no one home
I grieve...
For you
You leave me
So hard to move on
Still loving what's gone
Still life carries on
Carries on and on and on
And on...
The news that truly shocks
Is the empty, empty page
While the final rattle rocks
Its empty, empty cage
And I can't handle this
I grieve...
For you
You leave me
Let it out and move on
Missing what's gone
I said life carries on
I said life carries on and on
And on...
Life carries on in the people I meet
In every one that's out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
The rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Just the car that we ride in
The home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on
And on...
Life carries on and on and on
Did I dream this belief?
Or did I believe this dream?
How I will find relief?
I grieve.
There's a light,... when my baby's in my arms...
There's a light,... when the window shades are drawn
Hesitate .. when I feel I may do harm to her...
Wash it off,... cuz this feeling we can share...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Byzantine... is reflected in our pond...
There's a cloud,... but the water remains calm...
Reaching in,... the sun's fingers clutch the dawn to pass...
Even out,... it's a precious thing to bear...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Yes I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
It's not in my past to presume...
Love can keep on moving,... in both directions...
How to be happy and true...
Is the quest we're taking on together...
Taking on,.. on, on, on, on...
Taking on,... on, on, on, on...
There's a light,... when my baby's in my arms...
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
And I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Yes I know she's reached my heart,... in thin air
Yes I know she's reached my heart.
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
and I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
circles in time
evolution of love
i surrender myself
naked around you
worlds of bliss
ignorance in smiles
longing for security
emptyness in ourselves
and as i lay here
broken on the floor
I know for sure
I'll be back here again
trial and error
cirlces in time
evolution of love
and again the patrol:
For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
Hit me hard enough to wake me
And lead me wild to your dark roads
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
And let the blood fall in my mouth
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
And even better:
My lips are shakin
My nails are bit off
Its been a month since Ive heard myself talk
Only advantage this lifes got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea
And I fought back in my mind
Never lets me be right...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it dont show...
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i...
On empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions
Dont know who I could even ask
So Ill just lie down and wait for the dream
Where Im not ugly and youre lookin at me
And Ill stay in bed...
Oh, little Ive seen there
If just once I could be loved...
Oh, Id stare back at me
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and i
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me close at night
Oh, I paid the price...
Never held you in your eyes
damn it.....just what I was about to post.......thanks!

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
No one else here to blame
No one to point the finger
It's just you and me and the rain
Nobody made you do it, no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff, the stuff of country songs
Hey if God will send His angels
And if God would send a sign
And if God will send His angels
Would everything be alright?
God has got his phone off the hook, baby
Would he even pick up if he could?
It's been awhile since we saw that child
Hanging around this neighborhood
See his mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are blistered
The high street never looked so low
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the cops collecting for the cons
If God will send His angels
And if God would send a sign
And if God will send His angels
Where do we go?
Jesus never let me down
You know Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on
So where is the hope and where is the faith...and the love?
What's that you say to me?
Does love...light up your Christmas tree?
The next minute you're blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news
If God will send His angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if God will send His angels
Then I don't have to know how
And I don't need to know why
Then I don't want to promise
And I don't want to lie...just when I need to
To know
Where do we go?
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible
It's destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Insufferable
But for the last time
You're everything that I want and ask for
You're all that I'd dreamed
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul and beautiful you
Don't understand
Don't feel me now
I will breathe
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn
In my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
And for the first time
I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound
In my time
I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
You're mine forever now
Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Lennon/McCartney
Because the world is round it turns me on.
Because the world is round – Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
Because the wind is high it blows my mind.
Because the wind is high– Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
Because the sky is blue it makes me cry.
Because the sky is blue– Ah – love is old, love is new,
Love is all, love is you.
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
turned my world to black
tattooed all i see,
all that i am, all i'll ever be.
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
i know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky,
but why
why,
why?
can't it be,
why can't it be mine?
Death Cab for Cutie
So this is the new year.
And i don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
For self assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogs bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that could hold us back.
There'd be no distance that could hold us back
There'd be no distance that could hold us back
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
:cool:
happy, happy 2007!
peace & love all!
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
And everybody knows it.
So i'm proposing a swift orderly change.
Cause behind its door there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
And all i find are souvenirs from better times
Before the gleam of your taillights fading east
To find yourself a better life.
I was searching for some legal document
As the rain beat down on the hood
When i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
And that's how this idea was drilled into my head
Cause it's too important
To stay the way it's been
There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night
There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night (up all night)
When i'm lying awake at night.

U KNEW IT!! Hahahaha, love that song, almost the 1st thing I did before everything else, after I woke up and saved 2 relations of mates. SO THIS IS THE NEW YEAR?
HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR MY FRIENDS(, the fish, dolphins and mice)!
In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue
It's going to get stickier too...
It's been a long hot summer
let's go undercover
Don't try too hard to think... don't think at all
I'm not the only one starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb i'm staring at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to go blind
There's an insect in your ear if you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Do you want to see what the scratching brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach...
Will we ever live in peace?
Cause those that can't do often have to
Those that can't do often have to... preach
To the ones staring at the sun...
Afraid of what you'll find if you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb... staring at the sun
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind
Intransigence is all around... military is still in town
Armour plated suits and ties... daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle God is good but will HE listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something I'm missing I left in the duty free
Though you never really belonged to me
You're not the only one staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you stepped back inside
I'm not sucking my thumb I'm staring at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to go blind
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we began
Yes, I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won
So I took what's mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over, but it won't stop there
I am here for you if you'd only care
You touched my heart, you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
Love is blind and that I knew when
My heart was blinded by you
I've kissed your lips and held your hand
Shared your dreams and shared your bed
I know you well, I know your smell
I've been addicted to you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I am a dreamer, but when I wake
You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take
And as you move on, remember me
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile
I've watched you sleeping for a while
I'd be the father of your child
I'd spend a lifetime with you
I know your fears and you know mine
We've had our doubts, but now we're fine
And I love you, I swear that's true
I cannot live without you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
And I still hold your hand in mine...
In mine when I'm asleep
And I will bear my soul in time
When I'm kneeling at your feet
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray
I could break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
WANT TO FEEL THE WARM BREEZE
SLEEP UNDER A PALM TREE
FEEL THE RUSH OF THE OCEAN
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jetplane
Far away
And break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging with revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
Gotta keep movin' on, movin on'
Fly away
Break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
Take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Break away...
Break away.
A policeman knew my name
He said "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away"
I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair
chorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin' Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin
I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there's got to be another way
Who are you?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees
I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns
10/25/13 Hartford
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I'm falling behind
Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?
I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around
Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?
The good old days, the honest man
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees
A broken wrist and a big trapeze
Oh well
I don't mind, you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?
It’s funny how you just break down
Waiting on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soaking my spine
Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?
The teenage queen, the loaded gun
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen
A city wall and a trampoline
Oh well
I don't mind, you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go
Tell me what you find when you read my mind
Slipping in my faith until I fall
You never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again
She said
Oh well
I don't mind, you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Put your back on me
Put your back on me
Put your back on me
The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
When you read my mind.

All the troubles when combined
With the missing links
It don't feel like
Home now,...
That you're gone
All the troubles
suddenly explained infinitum
You're always wishing and
Never here at
Home
You
All the dreams we shared and
Lights we turned on
But the house is getting dark
And I don't want to know your past
But together share the dawn
And I won't need
Nothing else
Cause when we're dead
We would've had it all
And died
I would've fallen from the sky
Til you
Parachutes have opened now
Heaven knows if there's a ceiling
come so low with the kneeling
Please know that
I got
All the friends I'm needing
Before my light goes out
As the doors are closing now
And far away will be my home
And to grasp this, I don't know
And I don't need
Further back and forth, a wave will break on me today
And love,... Wish the world could go again with love
One cant seem to have enough
And war,.... Break the sky and tell me what it's for
I'll travel there on my own
And love,.... What a different life
Had I not found this love with you
It's so normal
You just stand there
I could say so much,
But I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinkin if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point we would think so
And everyone here
Knows everyone here is thinking 'bout somebody else
Well, it's best if we all keep it under our hats And I couldn't tell if anyone here was feelin the way I do,
But I'm lonely now,
And I don't know how to get it back to good
This don't mean that, you own me, well
This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
Yeah, but things worked out just like you wanted...too
If you see me out you don't know me,
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
Ah, to figure out just what I'm gonna do
Cause everyone here
Hates everyone here for doing just like they do
And it's best if we all keep this quiet instead
And I couldn't tell
Why everyone here was doing me like they do
But I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good
And everyone here
Is wondering what it's like to be with somebody else
And everyone here's to blame
And everyone here gets caught up in the pleasure or the pain
Yeah, well, everyone here hides shades of shame
Yeah, but looking inside we're the same, we're the same
And we're all grown now,
Yeah, but we don't know how
To get it back to good
Everyone here
Knows everyone here is thinking 'bout somebody else
And it's best if we all keep this
Under our heads, yeah, our heads
Yeah, see, I couldn't tell now,
If anyone here was feeling the way I do
But it's over now,
Yeah. I don't know how,
Guess it's over now,
There's no getting back to good
bliss!
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
The garbage truck beeps as it backs up
And I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away.
Could I push rewind?
The credits traverse, signifying the end
But I missed the best part.
Could we please go back to start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Eleven am,
By now you would think that I would be up
But my bedsheets shade the heat of choices I've made
And what did I find?
I never thought I could want someone so much
'Cause now you're not here and I'm knee deep in that old fear.
Forgive my indecision... I am only a man.
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Twelve pm and my dusty telephone rings.
Heavy head up from my pillow, who could it be?
I hope its you.
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, the day has come and I want off that ride.
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns
10/25/13 Hartford
when I'm in you?
I can only stay clean
when you are around.
Don't let me fall.
If I close my eyes forever,
would it ease the pain?
Could I breathe again?
Maybe I'm addicted,
I'm out of control,
but you're the drug
that keeps me from dying.
Maybe I'm a liar,
but all I really know is
you're the only reason I'm trying.
I am wasted away,
I made a million mistakes.
Am I too late?
There is a storm in my head;
it rains on my bed
when you are not here.
I'm not afraid of dying,
but I am afraid of losing you.
Maybe I'm addicted,
I'm out of control,
but you're the drug
that keeps me from dying.
Maybe I'm a liar,
but all I really know is
you're the only reason I'm trying.
When you're lying next to me
love is going through to me.
Oh it's beautiful.
Everything is clear to me
'till I hit reality
and I lose it all...
I lose it all...
I lose it all.
I lose it all...
Nah nah nah
nah nah nah....
Nah nah nah nah nah nah.....
nah nah nah nah nah nah....
You're the only reason,
Yeah, you're the only reason I'm trying,
Oh, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying,
Don't want to lose it all,
Don't want to lose it all,
I'm trying, I'm trying..
I'm trying ...
Yeah, you know I'm addicted,
You know I'm addicted,
Yeah, you know I'm addicted....

I'm floating down a river
Oars freed from their holes long ago
Lying face up on the floor of my vessel
I marvel at the stars
And feel my heart overflow
Further down the river
Two weeks without my lover
I'm in this boat alone
Floating down a river named emotion
Will I make it back to shore
Or drift into the unknown
Further down the river
I'm building an antenna
Transmissions will be sent when I am through
Maybe we'll meet again further down the river
And share what we both discovered...
Then revel in the view
Further down the river
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
Chloe's just like me, only beautiful
A couple of years of difference
But those lessons never learned
Chloe danced the tables in the French Quarter
She's always been given so I can't always make her laugh
But I'm proud to say
And I won't forget
Time spent laying by her side
Time spent laying by her side
And dreams like this must die
And a dream like this must die
Dreams like this must....
You ever heard the story of Mr. Faded Glory?
Said he who rides a pony must someday fall
I've been talkin' to my alter
Said life is what you make it
And if you make it death well then rest your soul away
Away, away, yeah
It's a broken kind of feeling
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a comin' better say your prayers
I wanna tell you that I love you
But does it really matter?
I just can't stand to see you dragging down again
Again, again, again
So I'm singing....
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Yes it does
I used to treat you like a lady
Now you're a substitute teacher
This bottle's not a pretty, not a pretty sight
I owe the man some money
So I'm turnin' over honey
You see Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time
Oh yeah
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Yes it does
This is my kind of love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and
It's unkind and leaves me alone
Like a crown of thorns
It's all who you know
So don't burn your bridges, woman
'Cause someday, yeah.
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space
Laying underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling great
Watch the red orange glow
Watch it float away
Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
Gonna save you’re tired soul
You’re gonna save our lives
Turn on the radio to
Find you in satellite
I’m waiting for the sky to fall
I’m waiting for a sign
And all we are
Is all so far
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
Hope you remember me
When you’re homesick and need a change
I miss you’re purple hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you’ll come back some day
On a bed of nails I wait
I’m praying that you don’t burn out
Or fade away
And all we are
Is all so far
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
You’re falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know you’re out there somewhere out there
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you’re out there
Somewhere out there
You’re falling back to me
I know, I know
You’re falling out of reach
I know
there you are.
- brain of c
it's okay, i love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay...
this is my chance, this is my life
this is my hope in an alleyway
this is my choice, this is my voice
there may be no tomorrow, now
this is my plea, this is my need
this is my time for standing free
this is my staff, this is my day
and the world is never safe
it's okay, you know i love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay, it's okay
it's okay...

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
And the leaves were falling down softly
My cold hands needed a warm, warm touch
And I was thinking about you
Here I am looking for signs of leaving
You hold my hand, but do you really need me?
I guess it's time for me to let you know
I've been thinking about you
I've been thinking about only you
When you sail across the ocean waters
And you reach the other side safely
Could you smile a little smile for me?
'Cause I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about you
I'll be thinking about only you.
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools said i, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence
I saw that we had forgotten to take the time
I, I saw that you couldn't care less about what you do
Couldn't care less about the lies
You couldn't find the time to cry
We forgot about love
We forgot about faith
We forgot about trust
We forgot about us
Now our love's floating out the window
Our love's floating out the back door
Our love's floating up in the sky in heaven
Where it began back in God's hands
You said that you had said all that you had to say
You said baby it's the end of the day
And we gave a lot but it wasn't enough
We got so tired that we just gave up
We didn't respect it
We went and neglected it
We didn't deserve it
But I never expected this
Our love floated out the window
Our love floated out the back door
Our love floated up in the sky to heaven
It's part of a plan
It's back in God's hands
Back in God's hands
