It Will Change Cities

I don't know if skies are blue
All I know is I love you
She came and saw my red dress
I had it on to impress her
We drank some wine to unwind
Relaxed and never on time
It's a long walk home to leave this town
I would say anything now
I don't know if skies are blue
All I know is I love you
And backing up we left it
We never spoke nor thought it
I had a bag full of it
what it is I don't know now
I don't know if skies are blue
All I know is I love you

Without Me
01:08
|

This is how the wind blows
Naturally
Volcano, time goes
Without me
All across the ocean
Into the Sea
All across the valley
Without me

My Dead Soldiers
03:08
|
|||
Nobody knows what we've been through
Nobody knows except for me and you and
My dead soldiers
My dead soldiers
We've seen it all my love
And then some more my love
We walked the beach my love
Back when you had feet my love
To Hollywood my love
Movie star my love
And all my dead soldiers
My dead soldiers
My dead soldiers

Well I'm not gonna play the harmonica
There will be no pedal steel on this song
I will live alone, I'll live on this pond
I'll sing this song out and I'll steal what he sung
I will listen close for the wind chimes
It's my picture now, I see it every day
You took the rest but you forgot the best one
I hope that last line rhymes in some way
I throw my bottle in the back yard river
I hope the water understands my love for it
I'll play the flute but I will not on this song
I hope my daughter understands when the time comes
I throw the pillow and the blanket follows
I pray for rain, I pray for rain, I pray for rain
I'm cutting now into my left arm wristwatch
'Cause my arm is fragile, and I don't want to bleed
Take from the inside what you lack in progress
I'll bake a cake so you can hold your candle
I will press play but I will not play this song
I need an army that can hold my hand all day

Still in Love
03:27
|
|||
I've been on your rain porch
For a while
Well I'm still in love with you
I'm still in love
I ain't seen your face now
For a while
Well I'm still in love with you
I'm still in love

There Was A Time
03:24
|
|||
There was a time when
You were my lover
There was a time when
We were together
There was a time when
I found another
There was a time when
I was a fool
Walking by
The purple rain around you makes cry
Walking by
The life I used to know so deep and wide
Makes me cry
There was a time when
You used to miss me
There was a time when
You used to kiss me
There was a time when
You'd say I love you
There was a time when
I was a fool
Walking by
The purple rain around you makes cry
Walking by
The life I used to know so deep and wide
Makes me cry
There was a time when
You were my lover
There was a time when
I was a fool

I Offend Me
03:24
|
|||
Oh my left arm offends me
Oh my right arm offends me
Well I'm still here
Oh my pictures offend me
And when I linger I offend me
Of course my fingers they offend me
I won't go home
No I won't
Oh my knees they offend me
And when I eat I offend me
Of course my teeth they offend me
Well I'm still here
Oh my legs they offend me
And when I beg I offend me
Oh every day I offend me
Well I'm still here
I won't go home
No I won't
It's not your fault you've been caught running
He walks on walls and brings the tide in
It's not your fault you've been caught running
He sets the sun and sends rain falling
Oh my left eye offend
Oh my right eye offends
I should be blind, I offend me
Well I'm still here
Oh my left hand offends me
Oh my right hand offends me
Should get on my feet and then leave
But I'm still here

All I Want Is Love
04:12
|
|||
6 a.m. on a bad day baby
Wondering where you are
Wondering if you're fast asleep
Or playing your guitar
6 a.m. on a bad day baby
Wish I was with you
Singing songs and making love
To drain our bottled blues
Want is love
Want is love
I don't give a fuck about it
All I want is love
3:45 on a bad day baby
Still not call from you
Maybe you just lost my number
Or have no phone to use
3:45 on a bad day baby
Have you found someone new
Hope to God you're thinking of me
As I think of you
Want is love
Want is love
I don't give a fuck about it
All I want is love
10 p.m. on a bad day baby
I don't know where you are
Maybe at the movie house
Or in someone else's arms
10 p.m. on a bad day baby
Do you still love me
I've got no friends no car no money
I guess I'll wait and see
Want is love
Want is love
I don't give a fuck about it
All I want is love

Liberty Bell
02:38
|

Reign sir
Wrapped sir
Hold my hat sir
You stole
My liberty bell
Is gone
And ringing for nowhere
Aim sir
Whole sir
Hit my half sir
You stole
My liberty bell
Is gone
And ringing for nowhere
Chained sir
Chapped sir
Chipped sir
Cracked sir
You stole
My liberty bell
Is gone
And ringing for nowhere
Saved sir
Stand sir
Faint sir
Bagged sir
You stole
My liberty bell
Is gone
And ringing for nowhere

Stupid Boy
04:09
|
|||
In your head
It made perfect sense I bet
The steps you stepped
By stepping over them
Stupid boy
Stupid boy
The thoughts you led
Climbing into bed
The fires lit
And soon this house will join it
To taste the end
To feel it sinking in
You found a friend
By god you found a friend
Stupid boy
Stupid boy
And now it's resting on my shoulders
All your blessings on my shoulders
I'm glad you'll die
I'm glad you'll die

Thief In The Night
03:32
|
|||
Then you were gone
Just like a thief in the night you were gone
I tried too
Letters I'd write in the furnace once again
Now I'm carving out holes in the walls
The smell of smoldering smoke fills the halls
I'm screaming everyone's name as the place flames towards the floor
I'm here to help you
You're mine to rescue
Hold you, have you
You're mine to rescue
Mine
Then you were gone
Just like a thief in the night you were gone
Reminded me of a song you hum
Inside your car
And now I'm bleeding myself on the floor
I'm taking pharmacy pills by the handful
I'm drinking chemicals found in the drawer
I'm going home
I'm here to help you
You're mine to rescue
Hold you, have you
You're mine to rescue
Mine
Then you were gone
Just like a thief in the night you were gone
Reminded me of a song you hum
Inside your car

The Photo
06:16
|
|||
You are the opposite of us
You are the definition of come and go
You tell me what you want to know
But you don't, you tell me that you do
You crossed the Atlantic for what?
You claimed that you did it for Love
But I know you did it for your lonely self
Yeah I know you did it for yourself
I'll tell you nothing if you tell me where I'm going
I'll tell you nothing if you tell me where it's going
I Want to be the man who doesn't say a word
I'm gonna be the man who doesn't say a word and
Bite while you try
You are the photo
You are the photo

Please Please Please
03:14

Waking up with no arms
I call my sister to play my guitar
So I can sing the finest song I've ever song before
The Doctor said, "Give up the search for the Ness
And proceed after the show to take a bath at home"
So won't you
Please surrender
Your life to Me
Ooh and my jet won't get there
'Cause the kids are saying I'm too heavy
This is why they say to stay inside and I say
Oh the big pleasure
And the fall of big band
The sound of your hand scatters across my face now
Please surrender
Your life to Me
Please please please my soul
My ripped rain coat
My ribbons bow
I found you
Leave leave left alone
All alone
On my own
I found you

Wash Your Feet
02:45
|
|||
When you wait outside
The feeling grows
The feeling grows
I should have never of let you go
And when you walk you're watched
From every corner
From every corner
You can't keep nothing from me no more
As the ground swells up
Over all you Love
And the red paint brush
Made you bleed for nothing
Why did you try and turn
Your house and home
Your house and home
Away from all of the words I wrote
Well I will tear it down
Until it's gone
Until it's gone
Until it's nothing but steps and stones
As the ground swells up
Over all you love
And the insects buzz
Inside of both ear drums
As You start to run
The whole comes undone
It took nothing
You blew out the bush
That flamed for your touch
It took nothing
A bet that was made
A hole in your grave
It took nothing
The purple one too
He caught it from you
It took nothing
Open wide
And breath it all

Light Out
04:39
|
|||
I wanna play the host to you
And wander by the coast with you
and laugh at all the jokes by you
Your timing too
I wanna walk across the rope for you
A hundred miles down below for you
I hope my line it holds to you
On tight to you
Morning
Bringing
God Out
Shining
Her light out
It’s bright for you
What is singing
If Not bringing
Your light out
Is it bright enough for you?
Deep inside the cave you go
Fire lights the way and glows
The pictures on the walls that show
You’re not alone
But the images you see are false
You see the puppet masters keep you close
Wander in the cave alone
The light you’ll know
Morning
Bringing
God Out
Shining
Her light out
It’s bright for you
What is singing
If Not bringing
Your light out
Is it bright enough for you?

Oh Christina
07:15
|
|||
It’s Over
and little did my heart know
My love would never let go of you
And I don’t know what it is
Over
And over does my mind go
The time that I would once know with you
And I don’t know what it is
Oh, Christina
It’s Over
We’re bowing as the curtains close
My hand will never let go of you
And I don’t know what it is
Over
and over does my mind go
The kiss that I would once know with you
And I don’t know what it is
Oh, Christina
I don’t know what it is about you
Oh, Christina
It’s Over
When I first fell in love with you
I could feel it all around
and now I’m blinded without you
Feels like the crows ate my eyes through
There’s a part in this for you
When I first fell in love with you
All my insides glowed
And now I’m now wandering to find you
and now I’m dying without you
Where’s the part in this for you?
I don’t know what it is
Oh, Christina
It’s Over
We’re bowing as the curtains close
My hand will never let go of you
And I don’t know what it is

If You See The Buddha
05:00
|

All your hair to run my hands through
All while my finger points at the Moon
I’ll find a way to fly past Neptune
All while my fingers point at the Moon
And the newspaper says
If it’s crazy what isn’t
Won’t you turn away
Well the truths what it is
And the shoe fits come wear it
While you runaway
The light that blinds you
Tries to shine through you
All while your finger points at the Moon
And the newspaper says
If it’s crazy what isn’t
Won’t you turn away
Well the truths what it is
And the shoe fits come wear it
While you runaway
All this time through
Time was telling you
Where to go, who to be
While your finger points at the Moon
I’ll find a way to fly past Neptune
All while my fingers point at the Moon

Organism
06:31
|

Oh I control the organism
I do on my own
I decide what's right
and I decide what's wrong
and I won't take your forever no
I'll find mine on my own
Well these things predate the dinosaurs
it's here and never gone
and I know it's not black
and I know it's not white
I know it's not in or out out
North or south I Know I know there’s more than only two sides
And its not to the left
And its not to the right
Isn't Felt heard or seen
Do know what I mean
isn't his or mine
Who are you?
I won't cross you my head fortress
If I let my feelings rust
I Said I didn't meant to hurt you
well I did just not that much
Well I’ll Blink the eye in pyramid
Drink the spearmint from my blood
I’llBreach bomb bay beside you
pick the wicked orchid up
Watched the floors as you fell
Your descent into
Stabbed the back of yourself
For a penny a thrill
til your tongue couldn't tell
Well that's hell
At least to me that's hell
Hell is being who you're not
Trying to give up all you got to sell
Who are you?
Richard Dawkins don't know
Deepok Chopra don't know
Pee wee Herman don't know
Harry Potter Don't know
I say Nobody knows
Spicoli don't know
Eric Bana don't know
Dennis rodman don't know Doctor jones he don't know
I say nobody knows
The ayatollah don't know
Oh the pope he don't know
At the top of the poll
Don't believe when you're told
What you know just ain't so
Because nobody knows
Where we go when we go
It’s a place we must go
Nobody until we go /until then/right no nobody knows / but now nobody knows
I say nobody knows
I say nobody knows
They don’t know
They don’t know
They ain’t been there before
I don’t know
What's a sad story without a sad song
What’s a victory without an anthem
You're the magician who makes the grass green
You are the vision that sees what you see

Moon on Glass
05:13
|
|||
To the moon I say, we
Sail away
Afraid to go,
I strayed,
but already was lost
A whim, gone
Gone again
Afraid to know
What's set in stone's that crumble
Come back baby
Why did you go
You'd light my flame back there
As I dove inside your hair
Well Someday baby you're gonna know
You dressed up shame back there
cell phone calling off who cares
Run away
Fight and stay
I blame myself
And no one else
For what I've done
or did
when I was only a kid
I save myself
with everybody's help
Do I wait for nothing at all
the darkest candle glare
smoke breath billows in the air
Sun drenched battered Saturn's ladle
We sipped electric spoons
huffed jars of Jupiter's orange fumes
And now the moon is coming
Crashing down
All your insides hit the floor
You stop and think how beautiful
Like a dream ahead, now
born instead
I've been inside you
Moon blood drips down painted pours
Hand Held Heathens hold the door
signs and fields
you postulate
On what's inside you
Off lifts red Canary Crows
Carved up cardboard cover blown
crawl through fields of bones
blue symphonic tones
I've been inside you
You lick the wounds
of lepers who'll
be gone so soon
the power flowing from the
Crescent moon
Luna knew
To paint clear light
You must ignite
The sphere that guides
The light
Tears turn to steam
As my soul wept inside the cold
cause we're alive today but someday Babe I won't be
Coming around to see
What wasn't allowed for me

How Does That Prayer Go?
08:30
|
|||
Hey oh
Did her love for me frail?
My god I've gone AWOL
Need to say all I can say
While I'm still able
Will my love her stay whole
Or start drifting away slow
Well who’s to say so?
Come what may, oh
Well how does that prayer go?
Tell me how does that prayer go?
Your love struck me a new hole
Stung by Hermes lost arrow Who shot it from where though?
Who knows, this is age old
Been since Plato
Turned to play-doh
We're still catching his cave's cold
my god I got angels crossed with devils
oh what rebels
oh how does that prayer go
Tell me how does that prayer go?
And I hope that I'll be there with you my love
throwing back a beer as we watch the flood
for when the end is coming I want your love
and nothing else will matter as the skies cloud up
And we'll be making love as the earth turns black
We stare into our eyes 'cause we can't look back
Baby this is it, only minutes left
The love I have for you it completes my death
Now my eyes won't close
while what gave us life is broke This is not what we meant by hope
Space was close
Now no astronauts can go
Our Priorities always low
Take hold
Our particles stay close
once touched they remain pulled
Like in some cosmic play full
of sinners and saints told
from all different angels
Like a Salvador brush stroke
the square lights your whole soul
It’s what's caught in the slowmo
That’s bringing you home though
So how did that prayer go
I hear your engine revving
laughing the whole way home
I want my walls in heaven
I'd like to be left alone
Fuck all your pushin and shoving I’m never letting it go
All of the pretty women
I'll miss Them most of all
All that pain is at our fingertips
Pull you close kiss your apocalypse
Finally we can bring an end to this baby
Fuck me now and let's start this crazy trip
The whole iceberg baby not just the tip
Discreet or in the streets
It’s all the same to me baby
Cause you’ve got it all
You've got it all like a rock you stand tall
as it sears off your flesh into gardens of trash
Feel it melt off your bones
Watch it meld with the stones
Powder fills your nose every hole baby
You gotta to crawl crawl crawl on the floor
until you can't keep crawling no more
You see a flash of all you adored, as it takes you
Even though you're born to survive
no matter what choice you're gonna di
you can crawl crawl all you like it will find you
I've got something on my mind
I want you to be my bride
Hey Little darling won't you step inside can I help you
put your hands up on the line
if you didn't steal you'll be fine / then you'll be fine
you better hope, hope, that we don't find anything baby /
Hope babe that we don't find what can kill you
|

Why you sitting so far away from me?
A million miles away from me
Tomorrow comes no matter what choices I make
And that's why I continue to stay
exactly where I'm at
Why you standing so far away from me?
Is it because you're afraid of me?
Well I haven't seen you for so many years
And I haven't touched you for so many years
And baby darlin' your love, your love
It turns me on
Can you see me when you're so far away from me?
Can you hear me when you're so far away from me?
Well I know you love me so why can't you say?
And I know you love me so why can't you say?
And baby darlin' my love, my love
It turns you on
Yeah when the leaves were changing
It didn't mean a thing when the leaves were changing.
It didn't mean a thing to me

Kiss You
03:29
|

I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna hold you late into the night
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
That's why I drag my car all through the night
I call my friends up
None of them have woken
What makes true love
Is it a bond that
Can't be broken
I need your love
That's why tonight
That's why tonight I am racing
For at the finish line
I know you're there
I know you're waiting
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna hold you late into the night
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
That's why I drag my car all through the night
Guns burst tires burn
The smoke it start to billow
Now it's my turn
Here's my shot
Here's my only window
I speed up floor it
Pedal to the metal
One half mile
Then you'll be mine
Open my door then grab you
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna hold you late into the night
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
That's why I drag my car all through the night
I see the white line
Your hair waving behind it
I feel so alive
Oh girl I want you
It's blurred to my sides
But you're clear in sight
And now the leads mine tonight
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna hold you late into the night
I wanna kiss you babe
I wanna kiss you babe
That's why I drag my car all through the night

Back In Love
03:35
|

Picking up
All the back pages
From where we left
We drive my car although
My heater's broken
Grab some coffee and
I'm lost in your eyes
We park along
A sea of automobiles
No lights are on
Except the city ones
And the stars up above
I don't care because
I'm lost in your eyes
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in Love
Please don't go
I drop you off
Then you invite me in
So I go where you are
We're on your couch
The blankets flow to the the floor
I hold your hand and then
I'm lost in your eyes.
It's four o'clock
The yellow flowers
Look so bright in the dark
I say I've missed you and
I've longed for your love
I kiss your lips and then
I'm lost in your eyes
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in Love
Please don't go
I touch your hair as I hold you
You breathe the air as I hold you
Whisper slowly as I hold you
Say you need me as I hold you
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in love
Please don't go
Back in Love
Please don't go

I want you to be my Yoko
I want you to
I want you to break up my Beatles
Oh through and through
I want your love every day
Without it I'll never be okay
I want you
I want you
I want you to be my Yoko
I want you to stay in bed, for photos
make peace with you
I want your love every day
Without it I'll never be okay
Picked up off the floor
I read yes, needed no more
I tasted love that night
Now on the weekend I feel lost
Who compares to you my love
I wait for love tonight
Girl Please take my love tonight
Don't wanna waste my love tonight
I want you to be my Yoko

Car Back

I love you my love
I'm coming my love
I've got my car back
and now I'm gonna get you back
when I first saw you
working at the drive through
skating out ice cream scoops
who could not have seen you
You rolled to my window
You asked me for my order
I said girl your number
That is all I want girl
I've got my car back
and now I'm gonna get you back
when I first lost you
when I could not drive you
you said you would not move
if I could not move you
oh girl it hurt so hard
when my car would not start
oh the things we've been through
since the last time in you
you told me if I fixed it up that you would love me
And now my engines revving by your door
I hear your doorbell as I feel my finger printing
are you pretending baby you're not home
I've got my car back
and now I'm gonna get you back

Cairo
03:16
|

How can I
Just one guy
Make you fall in love me
I know I don't seem all that special now
But I promise I
This one guy
will show you that I am something
I hope it's true it's whats's on the inside counts
Cause all I have is love right now
but baby darling stick around
Cause One day I'll have riches
famous paintings on the wall
a trip to Cairo
or Morocco in the fall
Our favorite breakfast spot in New York
view of Central park
Then you'll wrap in my coat
as we walk home at dark
And hear the sound of fallen leaves as we walk
blowing in the breeze as we walk
Suddenly at ease as we walk
Finally at ease as we walk
And baby we could travel the whole world
and walk and talk and talk to strangers
Fly back home, pick up where we left off
what's life without a little danger ?
Right now just take my hand darling
All these things will come
but they will mean nothing if I do not have you love
Love doesn't keep the water the on
Love doesn't fill your car with with gasoline
Love's a feeling, a feeling worth it all
even when the water's off

Home Back
Water Cut the Lawn
Was Planted and was grown
Leave the wall paper alone
I said Hold on now
Baby no means no
You can't crawl back for more
Leave the the wall paper alone
Out in the jungle the priest won't/want Mary
They draw the lines they won't cross
Touch wtih his left hand
his right hand stops him
What's the true one that he wants?
All my life
through my selfish eyes
who am I
To pretend I'm Right
I despise
When I'm insincire
Telling Lies
Oh it hurts to hear
Well I gotta try babe
To find what's in me
and so I must leave your touch
I'll think of you baby when it gets Windy
Wind that has taught me so much
Is it time
or am I too late
Been so long
But I've got to change
All that pain
Girl let's celebrate
I can name
Oh so many ways
Oh I waited for you baby
But I can wait no longer honey

And you always look so fine
what I'd do to you
Oh girl if you were mine
Girl I see you
Always giving me the eyes
So many cues
but babe my last girl sure broke me down
It felt just like this then turned around
and you might take what's left of me out
So I just hold the words in my mouth
I could call you
I got your number in my phone
But I wonder
Would I rather be alone
What a cop out
But I don't know what is worse
the rejection
Or if it'd actually work
Out somehow
Like if we stayed in bed and barely came out
Or maybe you'd just straight shoot me down
So I just hold the words in my mouth
Oh my God baby your body's so crazy
I want to lick every inch nice and slow
But my hearts involved baby
I can't do this safely
Do I want to buy what's in store?

The Way She Goes

Right then I knew it wasn't close
I knew it wasn't mutual
I tried to tell you that
it didn't have to be the same back
but I had to tell the truth
while everyone around me
was telling me not to
not to tell you that I love you
now you say you want to breath
where are we supposed to go?
who are we supposed to be?
seems I made the wrong move again
was I only there to please
dark hours in night
just fulfill a need
and then toss aside
oh that's the way she goes
fast or maybe slow
as it's burning up the ropes
I want you even more
One more night with you
Just one more night with you
then I hear you're coming into town
and I know you won't call me
who you gonna call
who you gonna be with
while I'm sleeping in my bed
with someone else in my arms
wondering who you're with
wondering where you are
and why your hairs not here with me
all over my face oh
your skin and sweat/'s so sweet
i wish it was covering me
oh it happened oh so fast
how long'd it even last
you said you gave your chance
but baby when was that
well that's just the way she goes
hold your breath here comes a tunnell
we'll see how long we hold
Our breath
How far we make it down the road
Now everything you say I just assume that it's a lie
hurt so many times before why do I even try
to believe you any more yeah you've fooled me more than twice
all the times you've led me round, you've lost count, there's no doubt girl that's not very nice
like when you told me that you love me
you told me that that you love me
what was I supposed to think?
Think of what you mean to me
then you ripped my heart
when you said I take it back
they say wounds are healed with time
But it's been a fucking while now
and I can't see the light
in any girl I meet
Oh all I see's your smile
us walking through the streets
So I barely let them through
And even if I do
It't just to to play the part
another night to make it through
sometimes that's just the way she goes
the one that you love don't love you back
and the one that loves you
you don't give a fuck about it
Well I still miss your kiss
Miss making my way up your hips
Oh i wanna kiss your lips
And not just the ones that you talk with
Please say there's some way
To fix this baby

About you there's just some thing
I can't quite put on my finger
Your movements play play me like strings
You speak and it makes me sing about
Love
Oh with the wave of your hand
I was caught in the wind of your Love
And I never felt more alive
Than in bed by your side with your love
The touch
Of your tongue
On my Tongue
I'm done
Oh baby
My love for you stays
The first time that our eyes did meet
Not even you could tell me it wasn't Love
Oh with the wave of your hand
I was caught in the wind of your Love
And I never felt more alive
Than in bed by your side with your love
And babe I'd risk it again
I'd relive all that pain for you love
And if I don't see you again
I'm still blessed to have been in your Love
The touch
Of your tongue
On my Tongue
I'm done
Oh baby my
Love for you stays
No like the days
Not like in waves
No way
I coulda never guessed that it would be this hard
But all the things in life that are worth it are
Like Your Love

Never Be Afraid

There's days when you can't eat
There's nights when you can't sleep
oh stare and watch TV
Staring back at you blinking
Oh the slight of hand you peaked
Sometimes wish you could unsee
Then a voice starts whispering and
The words feel so calming
It says
Never be afraid of anything at all
They tried to take your dreams
They kept you sleep walking
Circus bread, all you can eat
But no time for questioning
But you broke out of your shell
When you went to find your grail
oh you had to pass through hell
but you've sure got stories to tell
Never be afraid of anything at all
I've got plans
I've got plans
I'm gonna make my plans happen
fuck sitting not doing
anything
about them
I'm monna see them to the end
start a new begin again
Never be afraid of anything at all
Except for bears

Our Love

Girl let me appease you
Girl I beseech you
open your door
and I'll show you I'm more
more than a speech brewed
My arms out to reach you
will you open yours
Oh girl
I'd break walls
I would move mountains
I'd cross the ocean
to be with you girl
Boy If I had a dime for
every time I've been fed me words
well I'd be a rich girl
why should I see you
Or even believe you /
what are your words worth?
Are you sure
You'd break walls
Would you move mountains
Would cross the ocean to be with me boy
oh baby you can think what you want
you can think whatever it is you like
But every other woman I meet will just be my woman on the side
Babe you know you know you know you know
You know you know well you know I gotta try
Cause if I don't I don't know how I could live with that the rest of my life
Love is the only thing I know
that's healed by the thing that dealt the blow
Oh yeah the truth yeah I'll tell ya
In love letters I'll mail ya
Bail you out of jail
laugh at your jokes if they fail
The castle tower I'll scale yeah
holding on to your hair
we'll wear the finest regalia
By our personal tailor
Trek through the winter depths yeah
just for one little kiss
Get on my shoulders don't miss this
Cause baby I want you so bad
Just to smell ya
I'd swim to Australia
Boat through hades or hell yeah
Cause baby I want you so bad
