One set of doors was the color of honey
One set of doors was pink and grey
Well I wonder which set is mine, said she
As she walked down the long hallway ....
you seeing her live this summer??
man I'd kill to see her again.... if only..
How did you know....
You are very perceptive Mr. Shezhad.... yes, I will see Stevie Nicks/ Rod Stewart in concert this summer.
June 30th at the Q, going with friends. I just love Stevie- she is my all time favorite female singer.
Well, if you want to sing out, sing out
And if you want to be free, be free
'Cause there's a million things to be
You know that there are
And if you want to live high, live high
And if you want to live low, live low
'Cause there's a million ways to go
You know that there are
[Chorus:]
You can do what you want
The opportunity's on
And if you can find a new way
You can do it today
You can make it all true
And you can make it undo
you see ah ah ah
its easy ah ah ah
You only need to know
Well if you want to say yes, say yes
And if you want to say no, say no
'Cause there's a million ways to go
You know that there are
And if you want to be me, be me
And if you want to be you, be you
'Cause there's a million things to do
You know that there are
[Chorus]
Well, if you want to sing out, sing out
And if you want to be free, be free
'Cause there's a million things to be
You know that there are
You know that there are
You know that there are
You know that there are
You know that there are
One of my friends put this up on Youtube today.
It's a Peter Gabriel song I hadn't heard before.
I like it!
The book of love
The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing
But I---
I love it when you read to me
And you---
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I---
I love it when you sing to me
And you---
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cos I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.
Gazing at people, some hand in hand,
Just what I'm going through they can't understand.
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.
And I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.....
The gates and doors were barred and all the windows fastened down
I spent the night in sleeplessness and rose at every sound
Half in hopeless sorrow and half in fear the day
Would find the soldiers breaking through to drag us all away
And just before the sunrise I heard something at the wall
The gate began to rattle and a voice began to call
I hurried to the window looked down into the street
Expecting swords and torches and the sound of soldier's feet
But there was no one there but Mary so I went down to let her in
John stood there beside me as she told me where she'd been
She said they've moved him in the night and none of us knows where
The stone's been rolled away and now his body isn't there
So, we both ran toward the garden then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty tomb just the way that Mary said
But the winding sheet they'd wrapped him in was just an empty shell
And how or where they'd taken him was more than I could tell
Oh, something strange had happened there just what I did not know
John believed a miracle but I just turned to go
Circumstance and speculation couldn't lift me very high
Cause I'd seen them crucify him then I saw him die
Back inside the house again the guilt and anguish came
Everything I'd promised him just added to my shame
When at last it came to choices I denied I knew his name
And even if he was alive it wouldn't be the same
Then suddenly the air was filled with a strange and sweet perfume
Light that came from everywhere drove shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me with his arms held open wide
And I fell down on my knees and I just clung to him and cried
Then he raised me to my feet and as I looked into his eyes
The love was shining out from him like sunlight from the skies
Guilt in my confusion disappeared in sweet release
And every fear I'd ever had just melted into peace ....
He's alive! Yes He's alive! Yes He's alive
And I'm forgiven, heaven's gates are open wide!
He's alive! Yes He's alive! Yes He's alive
And I'm forgiven heaven's gates are open wide!
He's alive! He's alive! Hallelujah He's alive!
He's alive and I believe it!
He's alive! Sweet Jesus! !!!!!!
I’ve been afraid of changing ‘cause I
I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
and I’m getting older too
I’m getting older too ....
People downcast in despair
See the disillusion everywhere
Hoping their bad luck will change
Gets a little harder every day
People struggle, people fight
For the simple pleasures in their lives ...
But trouble comes from everywhere
It's a little more than you can bear ...
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
And the way they've always been
People shallow, self-absorbed
See the push and shove for their rewards
I, me, my is on their minds
You can read about it in their eyes ....
People ruthless, people cruel
See the damage that some people do
Full of hatred, full of pride
It's enough to make you loose your mind
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
Don't spread the lies
Don't make the same mistakes
With your own life
You never will let love survive
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
Don't spread the lies
Don't make the same mistakes
With your own life
Don't disrespect yourself
Don't loose your pride
And don't think that
Everybody's gonna choose your side
Quando sono solo
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
si lo so che non c'è luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole,
se non ci sei tu con me,
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai acceso,
chiudi dentro me
la lace che
hai incontrato per strada....
Star Anna and the laughing dogs - alone in this together
It comes in waves ‘til it finally breaks
Like a lightning streak across an empty stage
And the memories are warm most of the time
You sit alone in a crowded room
‘Til there’s nothing left and your heart is bruised
And the water shines over your eyes
And we’re all alone in this together
We’re gonna make it out make it out alive
‘Til it lays to rest and we realize
That time is nothing at all
And this trail we blaze like a hurricane
What a stupid game
What a price to pay
And such a way to fall
And we’re all alone in this together
I can’t believe you’re so out of reach
That you had no choice
You were never free
From all that pain brought down on you
Does it make you weak, is it something new
To admit you failed
That you can’t get through
And all of this is real
Where in hell can you go
Far from the things that you know
Far from the sprawl of concrete
That keeps crawling its way
About 1,000 miles a day?
Take one last look behind
Commit this to memory and mind
Don't miss this wasteland, this terrible place
When you leave
Keep your heart off your sleeve
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go, don't you go
O, my five & dime queen
Tell me what have you seen?
The lust and the avarice
The bottomless, the cavernous greed
Is that what you see?
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go
It's your happiness I want most of all
And for that I'd do anything at all, o mercy me!
If you want the best of it or the most of all
If there's anything I can do at all
Now come on shot gun bride
What makes me envy your life?
Faceless, nameless, innocent, blameless and free,
What's that like to be?
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go, don't you go ...
With his back against the San Francisco traffic,
On the bridges side that faces towards the jail,
Setting out to join a demographic,
He hoists his first leg up over the rail.
And a phone call is made,
Police cars show up quickly.
The sergeant slams his passenger door.
He says, “Hey son why don’t you talk through this with me,
Just tell me what you’re doing it for.”
“Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
It’s the mountains,
It’s the fog,
It’s the news at six o’clock,
It’s the death of my first dog,
It’s the angels up above me,
It’s the song that they don’t sing,
It’s a little bit of everything.”
An older man stands in a buffet line,
He is smiling and holding out his plate,
And the further he looks back into his timeline,
That hard road always had led him to today,
And making up for when his bright future had left him,
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone,
And letting everything out once, His server asks him,
Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?
I want a little bit of everything,
The biscuits and the beans,
Whatever helps me to forget about
The things that brought me to my knees,
So pile on those mashed potatoes,
And an extra chicken wing,
I’m having a little bit of everything.
Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations,
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall,
Her man says, “Baby, can I make an observation?
You don’t seem to be having any fun at all.”
She said, “You just worry about your groomsmen and your shirt-size,
And rest assured that this is making me feel good,
I think that love is so much easier than you realize,
If you can give yourself to someone,
Then you should.
Cause it’s a little bit of everything,
The way you choke, the way you ache,
It is waking up before you,
So I can watch you as you wake.
So in the day in late September,
It’s not some stupid little ring,
I’m giving a little bit of everything.
Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
It’s the matador and the bull,
It’s the suggested daily dosage,
It is the red moon when it’s full.
All these psychics and these doctors,
They’re all right and they’re all wrong,
It’s like trying to make out every word,
When they should simply hum along,
It’s not some message written in the dark,
Or some truth that no one’s seen,
It’s a little bit of everything.
Don't fuck sheep. -EV 7/11/11
You can never have enough Neil in the mix. -EV 10/24/10
There's only one commandment: Don't be an asshole. -EV 5/6/10
The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long
Feels like we're running out of time
Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong
You got to read between the lines
Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay
The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve
I keep my magic in my heart
Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do....
Another Dave Matthews song.
(The song that Jane Likes)
And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
Would you like to play
With the thought of a friend
In a distant passing stage
While you lie around
With your hands up and out
So resigned you will fall down
While you around here play
Wild on the warm and far away
While you around here play
The days keep scribbling themselves
In tidy lines
Would you like to play
With a fool holding hands
With a one-eyed jack of spades
While on the deck they sing
All of the captain's cards are kings
Still he and the queen are lost at sea
I hope it isn't you and me
And I'll be back round again
Yes I'll walk in time with you old friend
And we'll find that place
That we had danced in so long ago
And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
With this resigned
The letter I sign
It's been a while since I put on a suit of my own clothes
And even longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong
I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit
I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my boot
I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased
And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama put cottonseed
I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I mentioned
But a man like me don't do no time too hard to come back from
The meanest of the mean, I see you lock away and toss the key
But they're all just loud mouth punks to me, I've scraped meaner off my shoe
Somewhere, I ain't saying, there's a hole that holds a judge
The last one that I dug myself
And I must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could
Once his Honor grows a conscience, well folks, that there just ain't no good
There's a pretty girl out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight
All I need from you is to come home and be here by my side
Say what you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths
If they was to tie a noose, they'd have to lay their Bibles down"
I ain't here to save no souls and even if I could
I could never save enough to put back half the ones I took
So if they rest in torment you can't say it's cause of me
They'd long been bought and paid for like that fool's in Tennessee
With his back against the San Francisco traffic,
On the bridges side that faces towards the jail,
Setting out to join a demographic,
He hoists his first leg up over the rail.
And a phone call is made,

hold the presses mickey,hot news on the wire!
hundreds see an image of a guiness drinking choir.
celebrities and cameras are headed to the scene,
while president are fleeing in their speeding limousines..
don't worry, it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin and don't you dare tell my mother
your local programming interrupted, by the mindless banter of a soulless talking head
roll out the red carpet, a dripping bloody tongue
pay no mind to blue berets and all their shining guns
don't worry, it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin & don't you dare tell my mother
don't worry,it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin &don't you dare tell my mother
who you gonna call when the man brings his hammer down?
goose-stepping with a smoking, irish fly.
and when the world is over, children by the fire
raise their hands and pray that they may see the new messiah
then somewhere in the darkness a flag goes running by
the smell of cigarettes and love are incense for the fly

"Heartache to heartache
don't let it break so fast
think about all you have
And let it last
I can't take no more teardrops from you
but that don't give you no right to shout "
I walk half way around the world,
Just to sit down by your side.
And I would do most anything girl,
To be the apple of your eye.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times they are the gold.
And if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Any place you wanna go,
Know I'll be next to you.
If it's treasure baby you're looking for,
I'll search the whole world through.
Know troubles they may come and go,
But good times they're the gold.
So if the road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
When the storm comes,
You shelter me.
And I don't say a word,
And you know exactly what I mean.
In the darkest times,
You shine on me.
You set me free.
And keep me steady as we go.
So if your heart rings dry my love,
I will fill your cup.
And if your load gets heavy girl,
I will lift you up.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times be the gold.
So if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Ah
Hold me,
Shine on me.
Oh, shine, shine,
Shine on me.
Shine, shine
Yeah shine on me.
Hey shine.
Moon beams we can dream on, at the setting of the sun
And the stars we can wish upon, when the working man is done
Sunsets we could cry over, have our trouble's on the run
But more than these miracles above, good people, we need love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Just like they need the sun and moon and stars up above.
And nobody ever found happiness, living their life all alone
I used to walk around like I didn't need nobody, to keep me happy and alone
And one fine day I found myself in trouble, way down without a friend
Along came the love of a real fine woman, said she'd love me 'til the end ......
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love, ....
Darkness, Darkness
Be my pillow
Take my head
And let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, Darkness
Hide my yearning
For the things I cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see
Darkness, darkness,
Long and lonesome,
Ease the day that brings me pain.
I have felt the edge of sadness,
I have known the depth of fear.
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket,
Cover me with the endless night,
Take away, take away the pain of knowing,
Fill the emptiness of right now,
Emptiness of right now, now, now
Emptiness of ri-ight now.
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow,
Take my hand, and let me sleep.
In the coolness of your shadow,
In the silence, the silence of your deep.
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket,
Cover me with the endless night,
Take away, take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now,
Emptiness of right now now now
Emptiness of right....
Oh yeah Oh yeah
Emptiness, emptiness
Oh yeah
Carry me away
I know your angel eyes
Can see through me
Carry me away
Far away from the love you give
So generously, so generously.
Woman oh! Oh!
I've got a burning heart
I need to tell you
That it's you I love
I got a burning heart
I need to tell you that
I never get enough
Never, never, never
Never get enough.
Woman oh! Oh!
Marry me today
I'll give you all I own
Except my car ...
Marry me today baby
I'll give you everything
But my guitar
But my guitar and my car ...
Woman oh! Oh!
Let me hold your tongue
For I know you'll understand
The way I feel,
Baby I know you'll understand
That all I want to do
Is take your hand
I don't mean to do no harm Baby
I just want to be your man
Oh! I just want to be your man Baby
Hey I want to be, I want to be,
Hey, woman I'll be your man
Woman, I'll be your man ....
I just wrote out the lyrics to this new Brad song because I was listening to it.
Needle and thread lyrics-->
Well it's moments like this,
when there's no one around
it's moments like this
when I can hear the sound
of my own heart beatin'
yeah, it's mighty loud
it makes me want to stand up
and shout out loud
I don't wanna be hangin' by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid,
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
In the beginning was the heartache
in the end was the way
the only way to freedom that I heard you say
and I'm feeling like a big man
standin' real proud
make me wanna stand up
and shout it out loud:
I don't wanna be hangin' by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
da da daa da ne na
da da daa da ne na
da da daa de duh da
nah ne nah ne nah ne
I don't wanna be hangin'
by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
da da daa da ne na
da da daa da ne na
da da daa de duha dah
nah ne nah ne nah ne
Blue like the winter snow in this full moon
Black like the silhouettes of the trees
Late blooming flowers lye frozen underneath the stars
I want you to remember me that way
Far away
I'll be gone
Will you wait for me here?
How long?
I don't know
But wait for me here
Still as the river grows in December
Silent and perfect blinding ice
Spring keeps her promises
No cold can keep her back
I want you to remember me that way ...

How did you know....
You are very perceptive Mr. Shezhad.... yes, I will see Stevie Nicks/ Rod Stewart in concert this summer.
June 30th at the Q, going with friends. I just love Stevie- she is my all time favorite female singer.
Take care always.
And if you want to be free, be free
'Cause there's a million things to be
You know that there are
And if you want to live high, live high
And if you want to live low, live low
'Cause there's a million ways to go
You know that there are
[Chorus:]
You can do what you want
The opportunity's on
And if you can find a new way
You can do it today
You can make it all true
And you can make it undo
you see ah ah ah
its easy ah ah ah
You only need to know
Well if you want to say yes, say yes
And if you want to say no, say no
'Cause there's a million ways to go
You know that there are
And if you want to be me, be me
And if you want to be you, be you
'Cause there's a million things to do
You know that there are
[Chorus]
Well, if you want to sing out, sing out

......
"well I came all the way here
just to watch you walk out that door"...
For some reason her concert in Ohio is with Rod Stewart. I'm sure they both will take turns on stage and will do several "duets" together...
Either way - I'm so excited.
Take care Shezhad
It's a Peter Gabriel song I hadn't heard before.
I like it!
The book of love
The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing
But I---
I love it when you read to me
And you---
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I---
I love it when you sing to me
And you---
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cos I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.
Gazing at people, some hand in hand,
Just what I'm going through they can't understand.
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.
And I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.....
I wasn't sure of where to go
And the salt burns my skin
And your eyes were cold as the ocean
This is our day today
Won't you find a way back
To these arms
Why can't you find a way
Won't you find a way back
This is our day today
Won't you find a way back
Find a way back"
just keep the mother rolling
one more time

The gates and doors were barred and all the windows fastened down
I spent the night in sleeplessness and rose at every sound
Half in hopeless sorrow and half in fear the day
Would find the soldiers breaking through to drag us all away
And just before the sunrise I heard something at the wall
The gate began to rattle and a voice began to call
I hurried to the window looked down into the street
Expecting swords and torches and the sound of soldier's feet
But there was no one there but Mary so I went down to let her in
John stood there beside me as she told me where she'd been
She said they've moved him in the night and none of us knows where
The stone's been rolled away and now his body isn't there
So, we both ran toward the garden then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty tomb just the way that Mary said
But the winding sheet they'd wrapped him in was just an empty shell
And how or where they'd taken him was more than I could tell
Oh, something strange had happened there just what I did not know
John believed a miracle but I just turned to go
Circumstance and speculation couldn't lift me very high
Cause I'd seen them crucify him then I saw him die
Back inside the house again the guilt and anguish came
Everything I'd promised him just added to my shame
When at last it came to choices I denied I knew his name
And even if he was alive it wouldn't be the same
Then suddenly the air was filled with a strange and sweet perfume
Light that came from everywhere drove shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me with his arms held open wide
And I fell down on my knees and I just clung to him and cried
Then he raised me to my feet and as I looked into his eyes
The love was shining out from him like sunlight from the skies
Guilt in my confusion disappeared in sweet release
And every fear I'd ever had just melted into peace ....
He's alive! Yes He's alive! Yes He's alive
And I'm forgiven, heaven's gates are open wide!
He's alive! Yes He's alive! Yes He's alive
And I'm forgiven heaven's gates are open wide!
He's alive! He's alive! Hallelujah He's alive!
He's alive and I believe it!
He's alive! Sweet Jesus! !!!!!!
I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
and I’m getting older too
I’m getting older too ....
People downcast in despair
See the disillusion everywhere
Hoping their bad luck will change
Gets a little harder every day
People struggle, people fight
For the simple pleasures in their lives ...
But trouble comes from everywhere
It's a little more than you can bear ...
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
And the way they've always been
People shallow, self-absorbed
See the push and shove for their rewards
I, me, my is on their minds
You can read about it in their eyes ....
People ruthless, people cruel
See the damage that some people do
Full of hatred, full of pride
It's enough to make you loose your mind
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
Don't spread the lies
Don't make the same mistakes
With your own life
You never will let love survive
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
Don't spread the lies
Don't make the same mistakes
With your own life
Don't disrespect yourself
Don't loose your pride
And don't think that
Everybody's gonna choose your side

sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
si lo so che non c'è luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole,
se non ci sei tu con me,
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai acceso,
chiudi dentro me
la lace che
hai incontrato per strada....
It comes in waves ‘til it finally breaks
Like a lightning streak across an empty stage
And the memories are warm most of the time
You sit alone in a crowded room
‘Til there’s nothing left and your heart is bruised
And the water shines over your eyes
And we’re all alone in this together
We’re gonna make it out make it out alive
‘Til it lays to rest and we realize
That time is nothing at all
And this trail we blaze like a hurricane
What a stupid game
What a price to pay
And such a way to fall
And we’re all alone in this together
I can’t believe you’re so out of reach
That you had no choice
You were never free
From all that pain brought down on you
Does it make you weak, is it something new
To admit you failed
That you can’t get through
And all of this is real
And we’re all alone in this together
Where in hell can you go
Far from the things that you know
Far from the sprawl of concrete
That keeps crawling its way
About 1,000 miles a day?
Take one last look behind
Commit this to memory and mind
Don't miss this wasteland, this terrible place
When you leave
Keep your heart off your sleeve
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go, don't you go
O, my five & dime queen
Tell me what have you seen?
The lust and the avarice
The bottomless, the cavernous greed
Is that what you see?
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go
It's your happiness I want most of all
And for that I'd do anything at all, o mercy me!
If you want the best of it or the most of all
If there's anything I can do at all
Now come on shot gun bride
What makes me envy your life?
Faceless, nameless, innocent, blameless and free,
What's that like to be?
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go, don't you go ...
You could have been anyone to me...
Wish you were here...

On the bridges side that faces towards the jail,
Setting out to join a demographic,
He hoists his first leg up over the rail.
And a phone call is made,
Police cars show up quickly.
The sergeant slams his passenger door.
He says, “Hey son why don’t you talk through this with me,
Just tell me what you’re doing it for.”
“Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
It’s the mountains,
It’s the fog,
It’s the news at six o’clock,
It’s the death of my first dog,
It’s the angels up above me,
It’s the song that they don’t sing,
It’s a little bit of everything.”
An older man stands in a buffet line,
He is smiling and holding out his plate,
And the further he looks back into his timeline,
That hard road always had led him to today,
And making up for when his bright future had left him,
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone,
And letting everything out once, His server asks him,
Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?
I want a little bit of everything,
The biscuits and the beans,
Whatever helps me to forget about
The things that brought me to my knees,
So pile on those mashed potatoes,
And an extra chicken wing,
I’m having a little bit of everything.
Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations,
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall,
Her man says, “Baby, can I make an observation?
You don’t seem to be having any fun at all.”
She said, “You just worry about your groomsmen and your shirt-size,
And rest assured that this is making me feel good,
I think that love is so much easier than you realize,
If you can give yourself to someone,
Then you should.
Cause it’s a little bit of everything,
The way you choke, the way you ache,
It is waking up before you,
So I can watch you as you wake.
So in the day in late September,
It’s not some stupid little ring,
I’m giving a little bit of everything.
Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
It’s the matador and the bull,
It’s the suggested daily dosage,
It is the red moon when it’s full.
All these psychics and these doctors,
They’re all right and they’re all wrong,
It’s like trying to make out every word,
When they should simply hum along,
It’s not some message written in the dark,
Or some truth that no one’s seen,
It’s a little bit of everything.

Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow
Gonna rise up
Burning back holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold
Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
And suddenly swallowed by signs
Low and behold
Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole
Feels like we're running out of time
Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong
You got to read between the lines
Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay
The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve
I keep my magic in my heart
Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do....
(The song that Jane Likes)
And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
Would you like to play
With the thought of a friend
In a distant passing stage
While you lie around
With your hands up and out
So resigned you will fall down
While you around here play
Wild on the warm and far away
While you around here play
The days keep scribbling themselves
In tidy lines
Would you like to play
With a fool holding hands
With a one-eyed jack of spades
While on the deck they sing
All of the captain's cards are kings
Still he and the queen are lost at sea
I hope it isn't you and me
And I'll be back round again
Yes I'll walk in time with you old friend
And we'll find that place
That we had danced in so long ago
And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
With this resigned
The letter I sign
And even longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong
I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit
I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my boot
I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased
And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama put cottonseed
I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I mentioned
But a man like me don't do no time too hard to come back from
The meanest of the mean, I see you lock away and toss the key
But they're all just loud mouth punks to me, I've scraped meaner off my shoe
Somewhere, I ain't saying, there's a hole that holds a judge
The last one that I dug myself
And I must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could
Once his Honor grows a conscience, well folks, that there just ain't no good
There's a pretty girl out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight
All I need from you is to come home and be here by my side
Say what you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths
If they was to tie a noose, they'd have to lay their Bibles down"
I ain't here to save no souls and even if I could
I could never save enough to put back half the ones I took
So if they rest in torment you can't say it's cause of me
They'd long been bought and paid for like that fool's in Tennessee
these lyrics entriged me, so i googled it, then you tubed the song - never heard of this band before, but love this song, will have to check them out more. thank you for putting me onto a new band
hundreds see an image of a guiness drinking choir.
celebrities and cameras are headed to the scene,
while president are fleeing in their speeding limousines..
don't worry, it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin and don't you dare tell my mother
your local programming interrupted, by the mindless banter of a soulless talking head
roll out the red carpet, a dripping bloody tongue
pay no mind to blue berets and all their shining guns
don't worry, it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin & don't you dare tell my mother
don't worry,it's just stigmata. pass me a napkin &don't you dare tell my mother
who you gonna call when the man brings his hammer down?
goose-stepping with a smoking, irish fly.
and when the world is over, children by the fire
raise their hands and pray that they may see the new messiah
then somewhere in the darkness a flag goes running by
the smell of cigarettes and love are incense for the fly

don't let it break so fast
think about all you have
And let it last
I can't take no more teardrops from you
but that don't give you no right to shout "

Steady as we go
I walk half way around the world,
Just to sit down by your side.
And I would do most anything girl,
To be the apple of your eye.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times they are the gold.
And if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Any place you wanna go,
Know I'll be next to you.
If it's treasure baby you're looking for,
I'll search the whole world through.
Know troubles they may come and go,
But good times they're the gold.
So if the road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
When the storm comes,
You shelter me.
And I don't say a word,
And you know exactly what I mean.
In the darkest times,
You shine on me.
You set me free.
And keep me steady as we go.
So if your heart rings dry my love,
I will fill your cup.
And if your load gets heavy girl,
I will lift you up.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times be the gold.
So if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Ah
Hold me,
Shine on me.
Oh, shine, shine,
Shine on me.
Shine, shine
Yeah shine on me.
Hey shine.
And the stars we can wish upon, when the working man is done
Sunsets we could cry over, have our trouble's on the run
But more than these miracles above, good people, we need love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Just like they need the sun and moon and stars up above.
And nobody ever found happiness, living their life all alone
I used to walk around like I didn't need nobody, to keep me happy and alone
And one fine day I found myself in trouble, way down without a friend
Along came the love of a real fine woman, said she'd love me 'til the end ......
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love
Everybody needs the love, love, love, ....
Be my pillow
Take my head
And let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, Darkness
Hide my yearning
For the things I cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see
Darkness, darkness,
Long and lonesome,
Ease the day that brings me pain.
I have felt the edge of sadness,
I have known the depth of fear.
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket,
Cover me with the endless night,
Take away, take away the pain of knowing,
Fill the emptiness of right now,
Emptiness of right now, now, now
Emptiness of ri-ight now.
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow,
Take my hand, and let me sleep.
In the coolness of your shadow,
In the silence, the silence of your deep.
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket,
Cover me with the endless night,
Take away, take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now,
Emptiness of right now now now
Emptiness of right....
Oh yeah Oh yeah
Emptiness, emptiness
Oh yeah
I know your angel eyes
Can see through me
Carry me away
Far away from the love you give
So generously, so generously.
Woman oh! Oh!
I've got a burning heart
I need to tell you
That it's you I love
I got a burning heart
I need to tell you that
I never get enough
Never, never, never
Never get enough.
Woman oh! Oh!
Marry me today
I'll give you all I own
Except my car ...
Marry me today baby
I'll give you everything
But my guitar
But my guitar and my car ...
Woman oh! Oh!
Let me hold your tongue
For I know you'll understand
The way I feel,
Baby I know you'll understand
That all I want to do
Is take your hand
I don't mean to do no harm Baby
I just want to be your man
Oh! I just want to be your man Baby
Hey I want to be, I want to be,
Hey, woman I'll be your man
Woman, I'll be your man ....
Needle and thread lyrics-->
Well it's moments like this,
when there's no one around
it's moments like this
when I can hear the sound
of my own heart beatin'
yeah, it's mighty loud
it makes me want to stand up
and shout out loud
I don't wanna be hangin' by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid,
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
In the beginning was the heartache
in the end was the way
the only way to freedom that I heard you say
and I'm feeling like a big man
standin' real proud
make me wanna stand up
and shout it out loud:
I don't wanna be hangin' by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
da da daa da ne na
da da daa da ne na
da da daa de duh da
nah ne nah ne nah ne
I don't wanna be hangin'
by a needle and thread
by the word left unsaid
by the sound in my head
I wanna be livin' like I'm caught on a wave
like the love that we gave
like the songs that we've made
da da daa da ne na
da da daa da ne na
da da daa de duha dah
nah ne nah ne nah ne
I am myself
Like you somehow
Black like the silhouettes of the trees
Late blooming flowers lye frozen underneath the stars
I want you to remember me that way
Far away
I'll be gone
Will you wait for me here?
How long?
I don't know
But wait for me here
Still as the river grows in December
Silent and perfect blinding ice
Spring keeps her promises
No cold can keep her back
I want you to remember me that way ...
