    Trust in me, baby, give me time, gimme time, um gimme time.
    I heard somebody say, oh, "The older the grape,
    Sweeter the wine, sweeter the wine."

    Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
    It's growing stronger day by day, yeah,
    That's the price you've got to pay.

    Trust in me, baby, give me time, gimme time, please, a little more time.
    Takes a road runner just a little bit uh-longer, dear,
    Oh, to make up my mind, I gotta make up my mind.
    Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
    It's growing stronger day by day,
    That's the price that we both got to pay.

    I gotta know, know that I'm ready, oh ready to settle down,
    'Cause I think too much of your loving, baby,
    Yeah, I don't wanna mess your life around!

    So if you love me like you tell me that you're doing, dear,
    You shouldn't mind paying the price, any price, any price.
    Love is supposed to be that special kind of thing,
    Make anybody want to sacrifice.
    Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
    It's growing stronger day by day,
    That's the price we both gotta pay.

    Trust in me baby, trust in me baby,
    Trust in my love, in my heart.
    Keep the faith, baby, keep the faith in me, dear, in my love.
    Don't turn your face away from me, dear, oh you leave a lost girl,
    Oh, don't turn your love away, no no no no no no no,
    You gotta believe in me, baby, yeah, trust me dear, oh...

    Only love
    Can make it rain
    The way the beach is kissed by the sea.
    Only love
    Can make it rain
    Like the sweat of lovers'
    Laying in the fields.

    Love, Reign o'er me.
    Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me.

    Only love
    Can bring the rain
    That makes you yearn to the sky.
    Only love
    Can bring the rain
    That falls like tears from on high.

    Love Reign O'er me.

    On the dry and dusty road
    The nights we spend apart alone
    I need to get back home to cool cool rain.
    I can't sleep and I lay and I think
    The nights are hot and black as ink
    Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain.

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad

    really diggin' this new song by everlast....i never knew he had it in him...

    sixty five roses


    It's been a bit of a while since I seen you smile
    It's been too long baby what went wrong?
    Tell me how it got spoiled.
    Tell me when it went bad.
    How to get back to the times that we had.

    We're both young
    And our spirits were bold
    Now we're just angry and we act like we're old.
    We can't even talk it out without one of us walking away.

    You were 18. I just turned 29.
    I was fresh out the coffin girl and
    you were so fine
    The future was bright.
    The world, it seemed new
    I was with some other woman but
    I was thinking of you.
    I knew how it hurts
    I knew how it feels
    I knew it how aches.
    Cos the heart never heals.
    We're so busy screaming that
    we don't hear the words that we say.

    We've taken our lumps
    We took a few blows
    Hit a few bumps
    Had our fair share of woes.
    We tried to see good
    Through all of the bad
    Put on our smiles,
    Pretend we're not sad.
    We gotta be tough
    but we gotta be strong.
    Gotta be right
    Can't afford to be wrong.
    It's hard to sing the blues
    When you're reading bad news
    everyday.

    We worry too much for one couple to bear.
    Hunger so much for one person to care.
    We're fooling our family.
    We're fooling our friends.
    Pray that the pain and the frustration ends.
    Hope is a chance.
    Hope is a dream.
    Hope is a drug.
    Maybe hope's a vaccine.

    In the race against time
    I get down on my knees and I pray.

    Shout at the devil
    I curse the lord
    Offer them everything I can afford.
    I'd sell out my soul
    I lighten to see.
    Tried to be righteous .
    Tried to believe.
    Prayed every prayer.
    Kicked all of my highs.
    For hours I'd stare at those beautiful eyes.
    All of my problems seem to be melting away.
    The smile on her face
    says daddy everything is okay.

    In the race against time
    I get down on my knees and I pray.

    Bruce Springsteen - Highway 29

    One of the many highlights on one of my top 10 albums of all time!!! :)

    I slipped on her shoe, she was a perfect size seven
    I said "There's no smokin' in the store ma'am."
    She crossed her legs and then
    We made some small talk that's where it should have stopped
    She slipped me her number, I put it in my pocket
    My hand slipped up her skirt, everything slipped my mind
    In that little roadhouse
    On Highway 29

    It was a small town bank it was a mess
    Well I had a gun you know the rest
    Money on the floorboards, shirt was covered in blood
    And she was cryin', her and me we headed south
    On Highway 29

    In a little desert motel the air was hot and clean
    I slept the sleep of the dead, I didn't dream
    I woke in the morning, washed my face in the sink
    We headed into the Sierra Madres 'cross the border line
    The winter sun shot through the black trees
    I told myself it was all something in her
    But as we drove I knew it was something in me
    Something that'd been comin' for a long long time
    And something that was here with me now
    On Highway 29

    The road was filled with broken glass and gasoline
    She wasn't sayin' nothin', it was just a dream
    The wind come silent through the windshield
    All I could see was snow, sky and pines
    I closed my eyes and I was runnin'
    I was runnin' then I was flyin'
    Like a book among the many on a shelf...

    Dublin 02 Arena - 22/6/10. Belfast Odyssey Arena - 23/6/10. London Hyde Park - 25/6/10. Berlin Wuhlheide - 30/6/10.

    (I love this song these days.)

    Stay or Leave

    Maybe different but remember winters warm there you and I.
    Kissing whiskey by the fire with the snow outside.
    And when the summer comes
    In the river swim at midnight (shiver, cold) touch the bottom
    (stars are bright) with muddy toes

    Stay or leave--I want you not to go,
    But you should.
    It was good, as good goes.
    Stay or leave--I want you not to go.
    But you did.

    Wake up naked, drinking coffee, making plans to change the world
    While the world is changing us.
    It was good, good love.
    And you used to laugh under the covers,
    Maybe not so often now
    The way I used to laugh with you was loud and hard.

    Stay or leave—I want you not to go,
    But you should.
    It was good, as good goes.
    Stay or leave—I want you not to go.
    But you did.

    So what to do with the rest of the days' afternoon haze?
    Well isn't it strange how it changes everything we did?
    Did I do all that I should—that I could have done?

    Remember we used to dance and everyone wanted to be you and me? I want to be too.
    What day is this, besides the day you left me?
    What day is this, besides the day you went?
    So what to do with the rest of the days' afternoon haze?
    Well isn't it strange how it changes everything we did?
    Did I do all that I could?

    Remember we used to dance and everyone wanted to be you and me? I want to be too.
    What day is this, besides the day you left me?
    What day is this?

    She gets up and pours herself a strong one,
    And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
    Another night, it's gonna be a long one.
    She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.

    She wonders how it ever got this crazy.
    She thinks about a boy she knew in school.
    Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
    She's so far gone she feels just like a fool...

    HARD TIMES IN CALEDONIA
    DON´T LET THE MAKER OWN YA
    I GUESS WE´LL ONLY KNOW IN TIME
    WHO´LL PAY FOR YOUR NEIGHBOUR´S CRIME
    OLD DUST AND RAILWAY LINES
    A WITCHES CURSE IN SPRUCE AND PINES
    GRAND RIVER I´VE HEARD IT ALL
    I´VE HEARD IT ALL IN A LOVERS CALL
    chorus
    STONE LONESOME
    NOW C´MON
    CALEDONIA´S FALL
    I GUESS I BETTER MAKE THAT CALL
    THE LOVE OF ONE IS THE LOVE OF ALL
    C´MON
    THE LOVE OF ONE IS THE LOVE.........OF ALL
    BE STILL WHEN THE SUN POURS THROUGH
    BURIED LIVES IN WITH HELD TRUTH
    TAKE A BREATH AND HOLD YOUR TONGUE
    THE HURT OF ALL....... IS THE HURT OF ONE
    GIVE THANKS TO UNKNOWN BLESSINGS THEY COME TO YOU WHEN YOU STOP GUESSING
    SO BURN OUT IN THE FIELDS TONIGHT
    NOT INSIDE THE FLASHING LIGHTS
    chorus
    MY BABY´S WORLD IS FALLING DOWN
    FALLING DOWN ON HOLY GROUND
    BETTER LET THEM KNOW I´M COMING
    CALEDONIA HAS GOT ME RUNNIN´

    You may, cry the tears
    The tears, unreal for me
    You say, it's taken years
    Years of regret and pain
    Forget me not, he says
    I'm so afraid
    He says, there's no fear in your eyes
    Tell me, another, lie...
    I hear the islands calling
    I hear angry words
    Fly across the ocean
    Like some, sea birds
    Never stopping
    I feel my blood racing
    Can't believe what you are saying
    I used to love you,...

    Time after time I sit and I wait for your call
    I know I'm a fool but what can I say...

    Whatever the price I'll pay for you, Madame Blue
    Once long ago, a word from your lips and the world turned around.
    But somehow you've changed, you're so far away
    I long for the past and dream of the days with you, Madame Blue.

    Suite Madame Blue, gaze in your looking glass
    You're not a child anymore.
    Suite Madame Blue, the future is all but past.
    Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules
    You conquered the world and more ....heaven's door ...

    Love spreads her arms - waits there for the nails
    I forgive you boy, I will prevail
    Too much to take, some cross to bear
    I'm hiding in the trees with a picnic, she's over there

    Yeah yeah yeah

    She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
    I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
    Coal black skin, naked in the rain
    Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again

    Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
    The messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen

    I have a dream, I've seen the light
    Don't put it out, cause she's alright, yeah, she's my sister

    She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
    I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
    Cold black skin, naked in the rain
    Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again

    Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
    The messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen

    I have a dream, I've seen the light
    Don't put it out, cause she's alright, yeah, she's my sister

    Once upon a time, my advice to you would have been go out and find yourself a whore
    But I guess I've grown up, because I don't give that kind of advice anymore....

    I was 27 when I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn't the answer
    So I decided, maybe I should find a way to make this world work out for me
    And my good friend Paul was 83 when he told me; that ...

    "To love is to feel pain"......

    And I thought about that then and I've thought about that again and again

    "To love is to feel pain" .... there ain't no way around it
    The very nature of love is to grieve when it is over

    The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits
    Better roll them now before something else goes wrong...

    Know it's a wonderful world, if you can put aside the sadness
    And hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you...
    Better take the time to know it, If you feel anything at all...

    So if what you have is working for you, or you think that it stands a reasonable chance,
    and whatever's broken seems fixable and nothing's beyond repair
    if you still think about each other and smile before you remember ...

    how screwed up it's gotten or maybe still dream of a time less rotten
    Remember, it ain't too late to take a deep breath
    and throw yourself into it with everything you've got

    It's great to be alive

    Gonna be a world of hurt
    Gonna be a world of hurt
    Gonna be a world of hurt ....

    I remember I was barely four
    When mama told me "Daddy's gone:.died in the war
    He won't be home again"
    I never knew him, a picture's all I had
    Mama raised me all by herself through good and bad
    Somehow she bore the pain
    She's the one who believed in me
    Always knew when to let me be
    Showed me how to keep wrong from right
    She was there for me day and night.

    I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
    But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life

    I have a daughter, she's an only child
    Like her father, she can get a little wild
    Nobody holds her chained
    Her mother raised her and bore the load,
    And often told her "Daddy's gone out on the road
    But he'll be home again"
    But for the time that I wasn't there
    When she needed a father's care
    I can't turn back the hands of time
    But let her know that I'm proud she's mine.

    I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
    But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life.

    Of all the women in my life, the one that's closest to me
    Is my companion, my confidant, my true and trusted friend
    Her steady hand, her sparkling eyes were there to help me see
    Right from the start, we traded hearts
    So it shall be till the end
    Mother, you gave the world to me
    Daughter, you are a joy to see
    Woman, you've been my constant wife
    You are my passion, love of my life.

    I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
    But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life.

    "For The Women In My Life"

    And you can tell everybody this is your song
    It may be quite simple but now that it's done
    I hope you don't mind
    I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
    How wonderful life is while you're in the world ...

    Ricki Lee Jones: Cloud of Unknowing-->

    So he dropped the webs of the spider of heaven down through the clouds,
    All the way into the pool of blood at the bottom of hell
    Far above in heaven a bird flys through the terrible cloud of unknowing
    Trust can make a man into a wood, trust can make a man green
    an Everything-that-longs-to-Be
    Broken and small enough to see
    To be held in his hands
    To be a part and yet alone
    Here he is, reaching for...the speed of light
    Here he is, reaching for...the sound of forgiveness
    Now wounding 'round the waterfront she listens for a voice
    A sign of Mother God, a sign of God the lad
    I long to enter you with gentleness and compassion
    But sorrow is always an open door
    I know many days go by and I forget to look up at the stars
    I forget there are stars, I forget there is the rest
    Thin threads of light follow you around
    Through the pale blue, down your skin
    Down your skin

    So I talk to the night, I head for the light
    Try and hold it on the road, Thank God for the man who put the white lines
    On the highway....

    Baby what you gonna do when the fire is through
    And you find he's out looking for somebody new ....

    Cause you did everything that he wanted you to do
    And now you're all alone and crying, aren't you... lover

    I had a dream

    I know it seems so absurd
    
We all live in a house on a hill
    
Nobody has to say a word

    I wake up

    It's the middle of the night

    The room is opening with love

    I try to hold on to this golden light

    But I fall hard from above



    I don't do it for money

    I don't do it for God

    I'm back on the street because



    It takes you there

    Takes you there

    It takes you there

    Takes you there...


    Takes you there

    Takes you there

    Takes you there

    Takes you there
