It's not a diss song, it's just a real song
Feel me
I heard muthafuckas sayin' they made Hov
Made Hov say ok, so make another Hov
Niggas wasn't playin' they day role
So we parted ways like Ben and J-Lo
Shoulda been did but I been in a daze though
I put friends over bidness end of the day though
But when friends bidness interest they glow
Ain't nuttin' left to say though
I guess we forgot what we came fo'
Shoulda stayed in food and beverage
Too much flossing
Too much Sam Rothstein
I ain't a bitch but I gotta divorce them
Hov had to get the shallow shit up off him
And I ain't even want to be famous
Niggas is brainless to unnecessarily go through these changes
And I don't even know how I came to this
Except that fame is
The worst drug known to man
It's stronger than, Heroin
When you could look in the mirror like there I am
And still not see what you've become
I know I'm guilty of it too, but not like them
You lost one one one one...
Lose one, let go to get one
Lose some to win some
Story of a champion
Sorry I'm a champion
You lost one
I don't think it's meant to be
For she loves her work more than she does me
And honestly, at twenty-three
I would probably love my work more than I did she
So we ain't we, it's me and her
Cause what she prefers over me is work
And that's where we defer
So I have to give her free time even if it hurts
So breathe mami it's deserved
You've been put on this earth to be all you can be
Like the reserves
And me, my time in this army is served
So I have to allow she her time to serve
The times now for her
In time she'll mature
And maybe we can be we again like we were
Finally my times too short to share
And I ask her now it ain't fair
So yeah she lost one one one one
Let go to get one
Lose some to win some
Story of a champion
Sorry I'm a champion
You lost one
My nephew died in the car I bought
So I'm under the belief it's partly my fault
Close my eyes and squeeze try to block that thought
Place any burden on me but please not that Lord
And time don't go back it goes forward
Can't run from the pain go towards it
Things can be explained what caused it
Such a beautiful soul, so pure SHIT!
Gonna see you again I'm sure of it
Til' that time little man I'm nauseous
Your girlfriend's pregnant, the Lord's gift
Almost lost my faith that restored it
It's like havin' your life restarted
Can't wait for your child's life to be apart of it
So now I'm childlike waitin' for a gift
To return when I lost you, I lost it...
Let go to get one
Lost some to win some
Story of a champion
Carter you're a champion
I lost one...

How are things on the west coast?
I hear you're moving real fine
You wear those shoes like a dove
Now strut those shoes as we go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
You keep it moving to your soul's delight
Now I've tried the brakes
I tried but you know it's a lonely ride
How are things the west coast?
Oh, I'd move heaven behind those eyes
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
But, I don't want to take your heart
And I don't want a piece of history
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My god
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
How are things on the west coast?
Hear you're moving real fine tonight
You wear those shoes side to side
Ah, strut those shoes
We'll go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
Yeah, but you're an actor
I don't identify
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
But I don't want to play the part
And I don't want a taste of victory
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My God
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Let it come
'Cause I've got a chance for a sweet, sane life
I said I've got a dance and you'll do just fine
Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
Let it come
Well, I've got a chance for a sweet sane life
Said I've got a dance it moves into the night
Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
But, today my heart swings.
So Im back, to the velvet underground
Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
Back to the gypsy that I was
To the gypsy... that I was
And it all comes down to you
Well, you know that it does
Well, lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
Ah, and it lights up the night
And you see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
To the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear
I have no fear, I have only love
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
Enough for me to love
Enough to love
She is dancing away from me now
She was just a wish
She was just a wish
And a memory is all that is left for you now
You see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
(she was just a wish)
(she was just a wish)
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
Well the morning was complete.
There was tears on the steering wheel dripping on the seat,
Several hours or several weeks,
I'd have the cheek to say they're equally as bleak!
It's the beginning of the end, the car went up the hill,
And disappeared around the bend, ask anyone they'll tell you that.
It's these times that it tends,
The start to breaking up, to start to fall apart
Oh! hold on to your heart.
Do me a favour, break my nose!
Do me a favour, tell me to go away!
Do me a favour, stop asking questions!
She walked away, well her shoes were untied,
And the eyes were all red,
You could see that we've cried, and I watched and I waited,
'Till she was inside, forcing a smile and waving goodbye.
Curiousity becomes a heavy load,
Too heavy to hold, too heavy to hold.
Curiousity becomes a heavy load,
Too heavy to hold, will force you to be cold.
And do me a favour, and ask if you need some help!
She said, do me a favour and stop flattering yourself!
How to tear apart the ties that bind, perhaps fuck off, might be too kind,
Perhaps fuck off, might be too kind.
My name is Mud
Not to be confused with Bill or Jack or Pete or Dennis
My name is mud and it's always been
'Cause I'm the most boring sons-a-bitch you've ever seen
I dress in blue-yes navy blue
From head to toe I'm rather drab except my patent shoes
I make 'em shine, well most the time
'Cept today my feet are troddin' on by this friend of mine
Six foort two and rude as hell
I got to get him in the ground before he starts to smell
My name is Mud
My name is Mud, but call me Alowishus Devadander Abercrombie
That's long for Mud so I've been told
Told that by this sonsabitch that lies before me bloated blue and cold
I've got my pride, I drink my wine
I'd drink the finest except I haven't earned a dime in several months
Or were it years
The breath on that fat bastard could bring any man to tears
We had our words, a common spat
So I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat
My name is Mud

Hey my friend
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your time with me?
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off your mind
See you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
So we can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
And if you hold on tight
To what you think is your thing
You may find you're missing all the rest
Well she ran up into the light surprised
Her arms are open
Her mind's eye is...
...Seeing things from a
Better side than most can dream
On a clearer road I feel
Oh you could say she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where but what you think
That really matters
We'll make the best of what's around

Who are you to wave your finger?
You must have been out of your head
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
You practically raised the dead
Rob the grave, to snow the cradle
Then burn the evidence down
Soapbox, house of cards, and glass
So don't go tossing your stones around
You must have been..high
You must have been...so high
You must have been...
Foot in mouth, and head up asshole
Whatcha talking 'bout?
Difficult to dance around this one
'Til you pull it out, boy
You must have been...so high
You must have been...so high
Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference
Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent

Got lemon juice up in your...eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle

You're so full of it
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters

Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent
Now you'll weep or change the cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your high eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must have been....
So, who are you to wave your finger?
Who are you to wave your fatty finger at me?
You must have been out of your mind
Weeping shades of indigo
Shed without a reason
Weeping shades of indigo
Liar, lawyer
Mirror for you
What's the difference?
Kangaroo be stoned
He's guilty as the government
Now, will you weep or change the cozened indigo?
Got lemon juice up in your...eye

Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't wanna leave her now
I know I believe and how
Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
I know I believe and how
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
I know I believe and how
I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

Through the woods, and frosted moors
Past the snow-caked hedgerows I
Bed down upon the drifting snow
Sleep beneath the melting sky
I whisper all your names
I know not where you are
But somewhere, somewhere, somewhere here
Upon this wild abandoned star
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
I have no abiding memory
No awakening, no flaming dart
No word of consolation
No arrow through my heart
Only a feeble notion
A glimmer from afar
That I cling to with my fingers
As we go spinning wildly through the stars
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
The wind lifts me to my senses
I rise up with the dew
The snow turns to streams of light
The purple heather grows anew
I call you by your name
I know not where you are
But somehow, somewhere, sometime soon
Upon this wild abandoned star
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
Hey, fellas, have you heard the news

Baby baby baby, please don't leave here
They ask me how I feel
And if my love is real
And how I know I'll make it through.
And they, they look at me and frown,
They'd like to drive me from this town,
They don't want me around
'Cause I believe in you.
They show me to the door,
They say don't come back no more
'Cause I don't be like they'd like me to,
And I walk out on my own
A thousand miles from home
But I don't feel alone
'Cause I believe in you.
I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter,
I believe in you even though we be apart.
I believe in you even on the morning after.
Oh, when the dawn is nearing
Oh, when the night is disappearing
Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart.
Don't let me drift too far,
Keep me where you are
Where I will always be renewed.
And that which you've given me today
Is worth more than I could pay
And no matter what they say
I believe in you.
I believe in you when winter turn to summer,
I believe in you when white turn to black,
I believe in you even though I be outnumbered.
Oh, though the earth may shake me
Oh, though my friends forsake me
Oh, even that couldn't make me go back.
Don't let me change my heart,
Keep me set apart
From all the plans they do pursue.
And I, I don't mind the pain
Don't mind the driving rain
I know I will sustain
'Cause I believe in you.

oh man i loooooooove this song... i missed the concert cause my family was up visiting..
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh, huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah, huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
'Cause they're all wrong
I know better
'Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew?
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh, no
No, no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
Before they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew?
Yeah, yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you, my friend
What happened?
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
'Cause they're all wrong
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew?
I miss you
Who knew?
It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you were jokin'
And I'm broken
You've known for a little while
You pass it on and try something else
And hell, you know that you're the one
You turned on me
That's the way you heard it was supposed to be
And right away you start thinkin' about
The wrong things will start giving up
Well hell, you know that we're all quitters
Big sinners
So, tell me 'cause I don't understand
Just how to be more to the right
Ya know, ya know that means so much
You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
So go
You could sell me about anything
And I'll buy because I like your face
And hell you know that I'm a sucker
Little f**ker
But tell me it's only me
And I'll tell you it's only you
'Cause only you can make me weep
You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
When things were heavy
It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you jokin'
I hope days come easy and moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you're faced with a choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walking 'til you find the window
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
More than anything, more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it
To your dreams stay big and your worries stay small
You never need to carry more then you can hold
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
I hope you never look back, but you never forget
All the ones who love you in the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get
Oh, you find God's grace in every mistake
And you always give more than you take
Oh, more than anything
Yeah, more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it
To your dreams stay big and your worries stay small
You never need to carry more then you can hold
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish.
Wakin up feelin good and limber
when the telephone it ring
was a bad man from California
tellin of a stone he'd bring
and of better days
from this town, we'd escape
if we holler loud and make our way
we'd all live one big holiday
so we listened and up the river
and recorded all the sounds

all the leather kids were loud
I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

Crazy as I may
make my way through this world
It's for no one but me to say
what direction I shall turn in now
I am the captain now of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
Day after day how I long for you my love
How I long
Strange but it seems
like there's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
But I don't want your pity only the promise that
you'll stay with me tonight
Now, I am the captain now of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
But day after day how I long for you like crazy
Oh our love - how you do me
Oh my love - come on let's go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh won't you play with me again?
Got all night
The same old song...
Won't you come stay
all my life, after all
How could I even try to fight
after falling into your arms?
Oh mesmerized by your smile
and the way it lights up under your eyes
Oh how could I even try
Love, won't you stay with me?
Oh our love - how you do me
Oh my love - come on let's go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh, won't you play with me again?
We got all night
The same old song
Won't you come dance with me
my love, after all?
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago
Turned around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse
Still, it's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge
The moon is low tonight
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
I'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago
The fear of getting caught
Of recklessness and water
They cannot see me naked
These things, they go away
Replaced by every day
Nightswimming, remembering that night
September's coming soon
I'm pining for the moon
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
Could not describe nightswimming
You, I thought I knew you
You, I cannot judge
You, I thought you knew me
This one laughing quietly underneath my breath
Nightswimming.
The photograph reflects
Every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago

Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse
Still, it's so much clearer

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
I'm not sure all these people understand

Feel me
I heard muthafuckas sayin' they made Hov
Made Hov say ok, so make another Hov
Niggas wasn't playin' they day role
So we parted ways like Ben and J-Lo
Shoulda been did but I been in a daze though
I put friends over bidness end of the day though
But when friends bidness interest they glow
Ain't nuttin' left to say though
I guess we forgot what we came fo'
Shoulda stayed in food and beverage
Too much flossing
Too much Sam Rothstein
I ain't a bitch but I gotta divorce them
Hov had to get the shallow shit up off him
And I ain't even want to be famous
Niggas is brainless to unnecessarily go through these changes
And I don't even know how I came to this
Except that fame is
The worst drug known to man
It's stronger than, Heroin
When you could look in the mirror like there I am
And still not see what you've become
I know I'm guilty of it too, but not like them
You lost one one one one...
Lose one, let go to get one
Lose some to win some
Story of a champion
Sorry I'm a champion
You lost one
I don't think it's meant to be
For she loves her work more than she does me
And honestly, at twenty-three
I would probably love my work more than I did she
So we ain't we, it's me and her
Cause what she prefers over me is work
And that's where we defer
So I have to give her free time even if it hurts
So breathe mami it's deserved
You've been put on this earth to be all you can be
Like the reserves
And me, my time in this army is served
So I have to allow she her time to serve
The times now for her
In time she'll mature
And maybe we can be we again like we were
Finally my times too short to share
And I ask her now it ain't fair
So yeah she lost one one one one
Let go to get one
Lose some to win some
Story of a champion
Sorry I'm a champion
You lost one
My nephew died in the car I bought
So I'm under the belief it's partly my fault
Close my eyes and squeeze try to block that thought
Place any burden on me but please not that Lord
And time don't go back it goes forward
Can't run from the pain go towards it
Things can be explained what caused it
Such a beautiful soul, so pure SHIT!
Gonna see you again I'm sure of it
Til' that time little man I'm nauseous
Your girlfriend's pregnant, the Lord's gift
Almost lost my faith that restored it
It's like havin' your life restarted
Can't wait for your child's life to be apart of it
So now I'm childlike waitin' for a gift
To return when I lost you, I lost it...
Let go to get one
Lost some to win some
Story of a champion
Carter you're a champion
I lost one...
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am...taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded and unfolded and unfolding
I am...colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am fine.

She's been wrote about
She's been talked about, constantly
She's been up and down
She's been pushed around
But they held her down, NYC
She has no regrets
She accepts the past
All these things they
helped make to make she
She's been lost and found
And she's still around
There's a reason for everything
You know I've been holdin on.
Try to make me weak,
But I still stay strong.
Put my life all up in these songs
Jus so you can feel me.
So take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Just take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Now she's older now
Yes, she's wiser now
Can't disguise her now
She don't need
No one tellin her
What to do and say
No one tellin her
Who to be
She's on solid ground
She's been lost and found
Now, she answers to G-O-D
And she's confident
This is not the end
Ask me how I know
Cause she is me.
You know I've been holdin on.
Try to make me weak,
But I still stay strong.
Put my life all up in these songs
Jus so you can feel me.
So take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Just take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
So it's all or nothing at all,
All or nothing at all
Don't you know I can only be me.
(I can only be me, yeah)
[Chorus:]
So take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Just take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Take me as I am.
Take me as I am.
Said it's all or nothing at all
Said it's all or nothing at all
Just take me as I am,
or have nothing at all. (This is me)
Just take me as I am, (take me as i am)
or have nothing at all.
Just take me as I am, (take me as i am)
or have nothing, nothing at all.
Take me as I am.
I hear you're moving real fine
You wear those shoes like a dove
Now strut those shoes as we go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
You keep it moving to your soul's delight
Now I've tried the brakes
I tried but you know it's a lonely ride
How are things the west coast?
Oh, I'd move heaven behind those eyes
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
But, I don't want to take your heart
And I don't want a piece of history
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My god
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
How are things on the west coast?
Hear you're moving real fine tonight
You wear those shoes side to side
Ah, strut those shoes
We'll go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
Yeah, but you're an actor
I don't identify
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
But I don't want to play the part
And I don't want a taste of victory
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My God
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Let it come
'Cause I've got a chance for a sweet, sane life
I said I've got a dance and you'll do just fine
Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
Let it come
Well, I've got a chance for a sweet sane life
Said I've got a dance it moves into the night
Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
But, today my heart swings.

Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
Back to the gypsy that I was
To the gypsy... that I was
And it all comes down to you
Well, you know that it does
Well, lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
Ah, and it lights up the night
And you see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
To the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear
I have no fear, I have only love
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
Enough for me to love
Enough to love
She is dancing away from me now
She was just a wish
She was just a wish
And a memory is all that is left for you now
You see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes
(she was just a wish)
(she was just a wish)
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
It's all state of mind
There was tears on the steering wheel dripping on the seat,
Several hours or several weeks,
I'd have the cheek to say they're equally as bleak!
It's the beginning of the end, the car went up the hill,
And disappeared around the bend, ask anyone they'll tell you that.
It's these times that it tends,
The start to breaking up, to start to fall apart
Oh! hold on to your heart.
Do me a favour, break my nose!
Do me a favour, tell me to go away!
Do me a favour, stop asking questions!
She walked away, well her shoes were untied,
And the eyes were all red,
You could see that we've cried, and I watched and I waited,
'Till she was inside, forcing a smile and waving goodbye.
Curiousity becomes a heavy load,
Too heavy to hold, too heavy to hold.
Curiousity becomes a heavy load,
Too heavy to hold, will force you to be cold.
And do me a favour, and ask if you need some help!
She said, do me a favour and stop flattering yourself!
How to tear apart the ties that bind, perhaps fuck off, might be too kind,
Perhaps fuck off, might be too kind.
My name is Mud
Not to be confused with Bill or Jack or Pete or Dennis
My name is mud and it's always been
'Cause I'm the most boring sons-a-bitch you've ever seen
I dress in blue-yes navy blue
From head to toe I'm rather drab except my patent shoes
I make 'em shine, well most the time
'Cept today my feet are troddin' on by this friend of mine
Six foort two and rude as hell
I got to get him in the ground before he starts to smell
My name is Mud
My name is Mud, but call me Alowishus Devadander Abercrombie
That's long for Mud so I've been told
Told that by this sonsabitch that lies before me bloated blue and cold
I've got my pride, I drink my wine
I'd drink the finest except I haven't earned a dime in several months
Or were it years
The breath on that fat bastard could bring any man to tears
We had our words, a common spat
So I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat
My name is Mud
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your time with me?
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off your mind
See you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
So we can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
And if you hold on tight
To what you think is your thing
You may find you're missing all the rest
Well she ran up into the light surprised
Her arms are open
Her mind's eye is...
...Seeing things from a
Better side than most can dream
On a clearer road I feel
Oh you could say she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where but what you think
That really matters
We'll make the best of what's around
Crazy, how you, make it all alright love.
You crush me, with the, things you do,
I do, for you, anything too oh.
Sitting, smoking, feeling high.
And in this, moment, ah, it feels so right.
I am at your feet, oh, God I want you so badly.
And I wonder this could tomorrow be so wondrous as you there sleeping.
Lets go, drive til, the morning comes.
And watch the, sunrise, and fill our souls up.
We'll drink some, wine til, we get drunk, yes...
Its crazy, Im thinking, just knowing that the world is round.
Im here Im dancing on the ground.
Am I right side up or upside down, and is this real, or am I dreaming?

Lying under this spell you cast on me.
Each moment the more, i, love, you. crush me, come on. oh, yes.

So much you have, given love, that I would give you back again and again.
Oh, the love, many now hold you but please, please, just let me, always

As I go runnin' down your street
I will squeeze the life right out of you
I will make you laugh, and make you cry
And we may never forget it
As I make you call my name as you shout it to the blue, summer sky
And we may never meet again
So shed your skin lets get started
And you will throw your arms around me
And you will throw your arms around me
I will come to you at nightime
I will climb into your bed
I will kiss you in a 155 places
As I go swim around in your head
I will squeeze the life right out of you
I will make you laugh, I'll make you cry
And we may never forget it
As I make you call my name as you shout it to the blue, summer sky
And we may never meet again
So shed your skin lets get started
And you will throw your arms around me
And you will throw your arms around me
You must have been out of your head
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
You practically raised the dead
Rob the grave, to snow the cradle
Then burn the evidence down
Soapbox, house of cards, and glass
So don't go tossing your stones around
You must have been..high
You must have been...so high
You must have been...
Foot in mouth, and head up asshole
Whatcha talking 'bout?
Difficult to dance around this one
'Til you pull it out, boy
You must have been...so high
You must have been...so high
Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference
Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent
Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your...eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must have been...high, high
You must have been...so high
Who are you to wave your finger?
You're so full of it
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
Fucking hypocrite.
Liar, lawyer, mirror, show me
What's the difference?
Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent
Now you'll weep or change the cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your high eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must have been....
So, who are you to wave your finger?
Who are you to wave your fatty finger at me?
You must have been out of your mind
Weeping shades of indigo
Shed without a reason
Weeping shades of indigo
Liar, lawyer
Mirror for you
What's the difference?
Kangaroo be stoned
He's guilty as the government
Now, will you weep or change the cozened indigo?
Got lemon juice up in your...eye
Eye
Now, when you pissed all over my black kettle
You must have been...high, high, high
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
Your balls deep in muddy waters
Ganja, please, you must have been out of your mind.

Something in her style that shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
I know I believe and how
You're asking me will my love grow

You stick around now it may show

Past the snow-caked hedgerows I
Bed down upon the drifting snow
Sleep beneath the melting sky
I whisper all your names
I know not where you are
But somewhere, somewhere, somewhere here
Upon this wild abandoned star
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
I have no abiding memory
No awakening, no flaming dart
No word of consolation
No arrow through my heart
Only a feeble notion
A glimmer from afar
That I cling to with my fingers
As we go spinning wildly through the stars
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
The wind lifts me to my senses
I rise up with the dew
The snow turns to streams of light
The purple heather grows anew
I call you by your name
I know not where you are
But somehow, somewhere, sometime soon
Upon this wild abandoned star
And I'm full of love
And I'm full of wonder
And I'm full of love
And I'm falling under
Your spell
Yeah, the women in this town have been misused
Yeah, I seen it all in my dreams last night
Girls leaving this town 'cause you don't treat 'em right
Oh, take a train (take a train), fly by plain (fly by plain)
Yeah, gettin' tired (gettin' tired), sick and tired (sick and tired)
All you fellas better change your ways

Girls are good, you better treat 'em true

Baby baby baby, please don't leave here

And if my love is real
And how I know I'll make it through.
And they, they look at me and frown,
They'd like to drive me from this town,
They don't want me around
'Cause I believe in you.
They show me to the door,
They say don't come back no more
'Cause I don't be like they'd like me to,
And I walk out on my own
A thousand miles from home
But I don't feel alone
'Cause I believe in you.
I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter,
I believe in you even though we be apart.
I believe in you even on the morning after.
Oh, when the dawn is nearing
Oh, when the night is disappearing
Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart.
Don't let me drift too far,
Keep me where you are
Where I will always be renewed.
And that which you've given me today
Is worth more than I could pay
And no matter what they say
I believe in you.
I believe in you when winter turn to summer,
I believe in you when white turn to black,
I believe in you even though I be outnumbered.
Oh, though the earth may shake me
Oh, though my friends forsake me
Oh, even that couldn't make me go back.
Don't let me change my heart,
Keep me set apart
From all the plans they do pursue.
And I, I don't mind the pain
Don't mind the driving rain
I know I will sustain
'Cause I believe in you.
oh man i loooooooove this song... i missed the concert cause my family was up visiting..
I love it too. Tool rocks. Hopefully you'll get to catch them next time.
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh, huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah, huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
'Cause they're all wrong
I know better
'Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew?
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh, no
No, no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
Before they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew?
Yeah, yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you, my friend
What happened?
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
'Cause they're all wrong
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew?
I miss you
Who knew?

The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you were jokin'
And I'm broken
You've known for a little while
You pass it on and try something else
And hell, you know that you're the one
You turned on me
That's the way you heard it was supposed to be
And right away you start thinkin' about
The wrong things will start giving up
Well hell, you know that we're all quitters
Big sinners
So, tell me 'cause I don't understand
Just how to be more to the right
Ya know, ya know that means so much
You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
So go
You could sell me about anything
And I'll buy because I like your face
And hell you know that I'm a sucker
Little f**ker
But tell me it's only me
And I'll tell you it's only you
'Cause only you can make me weep
You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
When things were heavy
It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you jokin'
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you're faced with a choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walking 'til you find the window
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
More than anything, more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it
To your dreams stay big and your worries stay small
You never need to carry more then you can hold
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
I hope you never look back, but you never forget
All the ones who love you in the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get
Oh, you find God's grace in every mistake
And you always give more than you take
Oh, more than anything
Yeah, more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it
To your dreams stay big and your worries stay small
You never need to carry more then you can hold
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish.

when the telephone it ring
was a bad man from California
tellin of a stone he'd bring
and of better days
from this town, we'd escape
if we holler loud and make our way
we'd all live one big holiday
so we listened and up the river
and recorded all the sounds

That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

make my way through this world
It's for no one but me to say
what direction I shall turn in now
I am the captain now of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
Day after day how I long for you my love
How I long
Strange but it seems
like there's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
But I don't want your pity only the promise that
you'll stay with me tonight
Now, I am the captain now of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
But day after day how I long for you like crazy
Oh our love - how you do me
Oh my love - come on let's go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh won't you play with me again?
Got all night
The same old song...
Won't you come stay
all my life, after all
How could I even try to fight
after falling into your arms?
Oh mesmerized by your smile
and the way it lights up under your eyes
Oh how could I even try
Love, won't you stay with me?
Oh our love - how you do me
Oh my love - come on let's go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh, won't you play with me again?
We got all night
The same old song
Won't you come dance with me
my love, after all?
While the moon hung in the sky
Held the sea in your hands
And happy everafter in your eyes
Couldn't leave you to go to heaven
I carry you in my smile
For the first time my true reflection i see
Happy everafter in your eyes
Every star in the night
Promises the dawn
I will be there if you fall
To ever so heavily rest upon
All that i can give you
Is forever yours to keep
Wake up every day with a dream
And happyever after in your eyes
Happy everafter is in your eyes
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago
Turned around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse
Still, it's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge
The moon is low tonight
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
I'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago
The fear of getting caught
Of recklessness and water
They cannot see me naked
These things, they go away
Replaced by every day
Nightswimming, remembering that night
September's coming soon
I'm pining for the moon
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
Could not describe nightswimming
You, I thought I knew you
You, I cannot judge
You, I thought you knew me
This one laughing quietly underneath my breath
Nightswimming.
The photograph reflects
Every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night.
