    When I look into your eyes
    I can see a love restrained
    But darlin' when I hold you
    Don't you know I feel the same
    'Cause nothin' lasts forever
    And we both know hearts can change
    And it's hard to hold a candle
    In the cold November rain
    We've been through this such a long long time
    Just tryin' to kill the pain
    But lovers always come and lovers always go
    An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
    Walking away
    If we could take the time to lay it on the line
    I could rest my head
    Just knowin' that you were mine
    All mine
    So if you want to love me
    then darlin' don't refrain
    Or I'll just end up walkin'
    In the cold November rain

    Do you need some time...on your own
    Do you need some time...all alone
    Everybody needs some time...on their own
    Don't you know you need some time...all alone
    I know it's hard to keep an open heart
    When even friends seem out to harm you
    But if you could heal a broken heart
    Wouldn't time be out to charm you

    Sometimes I need some time...on my
    own Sometimes I need some time...all alone
    Everybody needs some time...on their own
    Don't you know you need some time...all alone

    And when your fears subside
    And shadows still remain, ohhh yeahhh
    I know that you can love me
    When there's no one left to blame
    So never mind the darkness
    We still can find a way
    'Cause nothin' lasts forever
    Even cold November rain


    Don't ya think that you need somebody
    Don't ya think that you need someone
    Everybody needs somebody
    You're not the only one
    You're not the only one

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad

    My heart's killin' me
    this love won't let me be

  • Hear 'em singing Happy Birthday
    Better think about the wish I made
    This year gone by ain't been a piece of cake
    Every day's a revolution
    Pull it together and it comes undone
    Just one more candle and a trip around the sun

    I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
    And it's good to know it's out of my control
    If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living
    Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go

    No, you never see it coming
    Always wind up wondering where it went
    Only time will tell if it was time well spent
    It's another revelation
    Celebrating what I should have done
    With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun

    I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
    And it's good to know it's out of my control
    If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living
    Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go


    Yes, I'll make a resolution
    That I'll never make another one
    Just enjoy this ride on my trip around the sun
    Just enjoy this ride ...
    Until it's done
    "You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry."  - Lincoln

    "Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
  • and now I'm lying in the van,
    in chicago in the springtime,
    and the rain outside is falling
    sounds just like popcorn,
    but before I open my eyes
    I think I'll make this resolution,
    "no I'm never gonna sing another sad song for as long as I live"
    "You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry."  - Lincoln

    "Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
  • Back at the bar getting cynically stoned
    Your friends are drinking alone
    But it's funny, they don't even cross your mind
    When she asks you into her home

    My friends tell me...
    that I've been such a fool
    and I have to stand by and take it baby...

    all for lovin' you

    I drown myself in sorrow...
    as I look at what you've done
    but nothin' seems to change....

    the bad times stay the same... and I can't run

    sometime I feel, sometimes I feel...

    like I've been tied to the whippin post
    tied to the whippin post
    tied to the whippin post

    good Lord, I feel like I'm dyin' ....

    Yes, I understand that every life must end, aw-huh,..
    As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw-huh,..
    Oh I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands
    the ones I love,..

    Some folks just have one,
    yeah, others, they've got none, huh-uh

    Stay with me,..
    Let's just breathe.

    Practiced are my sins,
    never gonna let me win, aw-huh,..
    Under everything, just another human being, aw-huh,..
    Yeh, I don't wanna hurt, there's so much in this world
    to make me believe.

    Stay with me,..
    You're all I see.

    Did I say that I need you?
    Did I say that I want you?
    Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see,..
    No one knows this more than me.
    As I come clean.

    I wonder everyday
    as I look upon your face, aw-huh,..
    Everything you gave
    And nothing you would take, aw huh,..
    Nothing you would take
    Everything you gave...

    Did I say that I need you?
    Oh, did I say that I want you?
    Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see,..
    No one knows this more than me.
    As I come clean, ah-ah...

    Nothing you would take,..
    Everything you gave.
    Love you till I die,..
    Meet you on the other side.

    You came along from far away
    and found me here
    I was playin' around, feelin down, hitting the beer

    You picked me up, from off the floor, and gave me a smile...
    You said you're much too young, your life ain't begun
    lets talk for awhile....

    And as my head was spinnin' 'round
    I gazed into your eyes... and thought

    Oh, I want you...

    thank you babe for being a friend
    and shinin' light in my life
    'cause, oh I need you.....

    I was listening to Benaroya today while I was cleaning the house. I remember they played this at Bridge once. ;):D

    Well they're building a gallows outside my cell I've got 25 minutes to go
    And the whole town's waitin' just to hear me yell I've got 24 minutes to go
    Well they gave me some beans for my last meal I've got 23 minutes to go
    But nobody asked me how I feel I've got 22 minutes to go
    Well I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunch with 21 minutes to go
    And I sent for the mayor but he's out to lunch I've got 20 more minutes to go
    Then the sheriff said boy I gonna watch you die got 19 minutes to go
    So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye got 18 minutes to go
    Now here comes the preacher for to save my soul with 13 minutes to go
    And he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so cold I've 12 more minutes to go
    Now they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine 11 more minutes to go
    And the trap and the rope aw they work just fine got 10 more minutes to go
    Well I'm waitin' on the pardon that'll set me free with 9 more minutes to go
    But this ain't the movies so forget about me got 8 more minutes to go
    And now I'm climbin up the ladder with a scaffold peg with 7 more minutes to go.
    I've betta' watch my step or else I'll break my leg.
    I got 6 more minutes to go.
    With my feet on the trap and my head on the noose got 5 more minutes to go
    Won't somebody come and cut me loose with 4 more minutes to go
    I can see the mountains I can see the skies with 3 more minutes to go
    And it's too darn pretty for a man that don't wanna die 2 more minutes to go
    I can see the buzzards I can hear the crows 1 more minute to go
    And now I'm swingin' and here I go-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!

    winded is the sailor...drifting by the storm...
    wounded is the organ he left all...bloodied on the shore...
    gorgeous was his savior, sees her...drowning in his wake...
    daily taste the salt of her tears, but...a chance blamed fate...
    little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
    the smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
    ransom paid the devil...he whispers pleasing words...
    triumphant are the angels if they can...a get there first...
    little secrets tremors...turned to quake...
    the smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
    i'll decide...take the dive...
    take my time...not my life...
    wait for signs...believe in lies...
    to get by...it's divine...whoa...
    oh, you know what it's like...
    turns the bow back, tows and...drops the line...
    puts his faith in love and tremor christ...

    Wish you were here...

    Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
    Let's climb through the tide
    Penetrate the evenin' that the
    City sleeps to hide
    Let's swim out tonight, love
    It's our turn to try
    Parked beside the ocean
    On our moonlight drive

    Wish you were here...

    Since they played this tonight, it belongs here-->

    it's not the same without you up here
    can't find my wheels
    your absence is what breeds this fear
    warm breath and all it steals
    you can't know how it feels to be in here
    all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
    playin' ain't the same without you here
    we've come to hate the golden rule
    cannot seem to make the dots connect
    the morning light don't show you near
    you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
    the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
    oooh hoo..
    death ain't the same without you, dear
    i make the others run and hide
    new york streets seem to make it worse
    all this noise inside the quiet
    i can't hold on, the weight you bear
    my body's broken fast, please lift me up
    you can't know what it's like to be inside
    the fading melodies can't beat my need
    i'm not the same without you here
    how can i quit to be there
    sit and stare
    stare..
    begging for a prayer

    If I had to lose a mile
    If I had to touch feelings
    I would lose my soul
    The way I do

    I don't have to think
    I only have to do it
    The results are always perfect
    And that's old news

    Would you like to hear my voice
    Sprinkled with emotion
    Invented at your birth?

    I can't see the end of me
    My whole expanse I cannot see

    Wish you were here...

    do you spend the day counting the hours you're awake
    and when night covers the sky you find yourself doing the same
    its a burden you've been bearing
    in spite of all your prayers
    as the light turns off inside your heart
    can you remember what its like to care?

    knees are week
    ...hands are shaking....
    i can't breathe,

    so


    give me the drug keep me alive
    give me whats' left of my life

    She's a victim of her senses
    Do you know her?
    Can you see her in the distance
    As she tumbles by?
    Veteran of a race
    that should be over
    Can you hear her sigh?
    With wings to fly
    She rolls along
    Doing it wrong.

    Oh, I've loved her so long
    Oh, I've loved her so long
    There's a place that I know
    We could go
    get away for a while
    I can bring her the peace
    That she needs
    Give her reason to smile.

    Oh, I've loved her so long

    You think I'm pretty without any makeup on
    You think I'm funny when I tell the punchline wrong
    I know you get me
    So I let my walls come down, down

    Before you met me
    I was alright but things were kinda heavy
    You brought me to life
    Now every February
    You'll be my Valentine, Valentine

    Let's go all the way tonight
    No regrets, just love
    We can dance until we die
    You and I will be young forever

    You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
    The way you turn me on
    I can't sleep
    Let's run away and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    My heart stops when you look at me
    Just one touch
    Now baby I believe
    This is real
    So take a chance and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    We drove to Cali and got drunk on the beach
    Got a hotel and built a fort out of sheets
    I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece
    I'm complete

    Let's go all the way tonight
    No regrets, just love
    We can dance until we die
    You and I will be young forever

    You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
    The way you turn me on
    I can't sleep
    Let's run away and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    My heart stops when you look at me
    Just one touch
    Now baby I believe
    This is real
    So take a chance and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    I'm gonna get your heart racing
    In my skin tights jeans
    Be your teenage dream tonight
    Let you put your hands on me
    In my skin tight jeans
    Be your teenage dream tonight

    You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
    The way you turn me on
    I can't sleep
    Let's run away and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    My heart stops when you look at me
    Just one touch
    Now baby I believe
    This is real
    So take a chance and don't ever look back
    Don't ever look back

    I'm gonna get your heart racing
    In my skin tights jeans
    Be your teenage dream tonight
    Let you put your hands on me
    In my skin tight jeans
    Be your teenage dream tonight
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Before you slip into unconsciousness
    I'd like to have another kiss
    Another flashing chance at bliss
    Another kiss, another kiss

    The days are bright and filled with pain
    Enclose me in your gentle rain
    The time you ran was too insane
    We'll meet again, we'll meet again


    Oh tell me where your freedom lies
    The streets are fields that never die
    Deliver me from reasons why
    You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad

    as the ceiling at which he's staring

    he's alive, but feels absolutely nothing

    so is he?

    Wake me up when it's over,
    Wake me up when it's done,
    When he's gone away and taken everything,
    Wake me up.

    Wake me up when the skies are clearing,
    When the water is still,
    'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so,
    Please say you will.

    If it were any other day,
    This wouldn't get the best of me.

    But today I'm not so strong,
    So lay me down with a sad song,
    And when it stops then you know I've been,
    Gone too long.

    But don't shake me awake,
    Don't bend me or I will break,
    Come find me somewhere between my dreams,
    With the sun on my face.

    I will still feel it later on,
    But for now I'd rather be asleep.

    As I sit and watch the snow
    Fallin' down
    I don't miss you at all
    I hear children playin' laughin' so loud
    I don't think of your smile

    So if you never come to me
    You'll stay a distant memory
    Out my window I see lights going dark
    Your dark eyes don't haunt me

    And then I wonder who I am
    Without the warm touch of your hand

    And then I wonder who I am
    Without the warm touch of your hand
    As I sit and watch the snow
    Fallin' down

    I don't miss you at all
    I don't miss you at all
    I don't miss you at all
