Lyrics:

Bird on the wire Looking for love I’m down here looking up above Take me away we’ll fly away together Up to our dreams and fall in love forever (x2)

Lyrics:

Let’s find a light that won’t turn out Love is a dream that lives out loud Carry me into the sun, carry me out of the atmosphere The days get heavy, the nights get thin Do you know the trouble I’m in? The days get heavy, the nights get Lost in the middle of a busy, busy world Where all the signs point to the exits and the soundtrack plays in double Time stands still Everything I’ve ever lost catches up with me The days get heavy, the nights get thin Do you know the trouble I’m in? The days get heavy, the nights get lost Do you know the trouble I’ve caused? Look at the shadows, look at the shadows That our souls are standing on Can you ride the waves, can you ride the waves And ride out the storm? Look at the shadows, look at the shadows That our souls are standing on Can you ride the waves, can you ride the waves And ride out the storm? The days get heavy, the nights get thin Do you know the trouble I’m in? The days get heavy, the nights get lost Do you know the trouble I’ve caused?

Lyrics:

winding down the valley towards the shore we must be close to the coast, I can taste the salt. and we grab the rising sun to make the world revolve around us. wander on. the fog is thick and the smoke from this train climbs, like the redwoods tall, as we rise and fall. those hills call your name, and the wind, she tells you things: “this world is ours. Let’s wander on.” wander on. wander on.

Lyrics:

Only  the  trees  heard  us   As  we  whispered  tender  secrets   You  told  me  that  you  loved  me   And  they  whispered  back  their  approval     So  dance  with  me  under  the  stars   And  I’ll  get  lost  and  found  in  your  arms   Safe  and  sound  here  on  this  moonlit  night   We  begin     I  looked  into  your  eyes   Lit  up  by  the  starlight   Telling  tales  of  days  to  come   Of  you  and  I  together     So  dance  with  me  under  the  stars   And  I’ll  get  lost  and  found  in  your  arms   Safe  and  sound  here  on  this  moonlit  night   We  begin     Here  we  go,  here  we  go

Lyrics:

another day is done another race is run another setting sun over the bay and i'm the first born son of a skileld electrician here in Bradonton, FLA and there's graffiti on the watertower for everyone to read drive around the city streets for hours they are the best of times they are the worst of times they are the days of our lives not long after dark down at the baseball park kids cheer and dogs will bark in celebration but all the old folks say if we stay out to late cemetary gates swing wide open and all the spirits of our great gandfasthers will haunt the streets at night they float around like they were underwater and when the music plays they miss the salad days they miss the days of their lives

Lyrics:

Cast your eyes on the starry skies While I fashion my disguise For cure all remedies and bargain priced redemptions This may come as a surprise But I’m not like those other guys They’re all charlatans and master of deception Just a preacher on the stage In this dark and troubled age Signs of error on every page Revelations And Armageddon’s on its way Who’s prepared for judgment day Some will perish and some will pay for their salvation With their generous donations Cause I’m spinning a web that’s designed to confuse and bewilder My weapons are words; I can kill two birds with one scripture Then I’m your Man Men in suits all neatly pressed Women in their Sunday best Watch me dazzle and impress The congregation And how I sing them all to sleep Pray the Lord their souls to keep By the time their counting sheep I’m on vacation Thanks to those donations Cause I’m spinning a web that’s designed to confuse and bewilder My weapons are words; I can kill two birds with one scripture Then I’m your Man I’m your man I’m your man Got the keys to the Promised Land I’m your man Take my hand Lead the way to the Promised Land

Lyrics:

Well, the finer things don't seem to come our way. Finer things don't seem to come our way. Long as we got you and me, we'll make it out OK. Finer things don't seem to come our way. Well, the money is gone before the bills are paid. Money is gone before the bills are paid. Money seems to spend a whole lot faster than it's made. Money is gone before the bills are paid. We got no need The finer things Fancy cars Diamond rings Expensive clothes Designer shoes Don't mean a thing If I don't have you. I'll stand beside you when the chips are down. Stand beside you when the chips are down. Hard times come, and hard times go; you know I'll stick around. Stand beside you when the chips are down. I'll tie your laces when your shoe's untied. Tie your laces when they've come untied. Always here to lend an ear; my arms are open wide. And I'll tie your laces when your shoe's untied. We got no need The finer things Fancy cars Diamond rings Expensive clothes Designer shoes Don't mean a thing If I don't have you. Don't mean a thing... ...if I don't have you.

Lyrics:

Turn our pockets inside out Day to day, hand to mouth We may have to go down and play The corner of the street with an open guitar case Change will come if we make good With the tourists down on Hollywood and Vine We’ll get by, we’ll get by Even if the money’s getting tight, we’ll get by This town will surely spit us out Unless our luck turns around If it doesn’t we’ll move to the countryside Get a cabin, live the simple life We’ll wake up to the rooster’s crow Sittin on the porch, we could take it slow We’ll get by, we’ll get by Say we gave it our best try, we’ll get by Oooooh…. Oooooooh…. Try our best to stay in love Hold on to each other it’ll be enough To get by, to get by We’ll get by, we’ll get by We’ll get by by by We’ll get by by by

Lyrics:

Under a sycamore tree, Where your love hangs freely. Stories of boys and girls are alive, Dreaming of love and sweet, sweet delight. Where do we come from, where do we go? Valerie made me sing. Valerie made me sing. Valerie made me sing. With all her glory, the power of story, Valerie made me sing.

Lyrics:

I don’t give a damn where you are. Outside and about. Are you laughing, are you changing? Please just get a move on. Your presence is requested by everyone but me. They kiss and they tell, You’re so meant to be. Just like coffee, baby Before we lose this war. Love to tell you why I came, But tonight is too short. On the floor, on the stairs, Move the tables, move the chairs. We’re lovers and we’re loving. I know it’s unfair. I’m your first, I’m your last, Better than the best Just start the coffee, baby Before we lose this war. Love to tell you why I came, But tonight is too short.

Lyrics:

You said you're leaving I'll see you in the morning And that is just one more thing That ties me to a place Though you cry now All I can think is just how Those damp gray lines they have bound Your eyes upon your face It's a hard way but it's our way When you return Tell me of your travels The angels and the rabble And how they sang the same You'll say you missed me I will say I missed you Then you say you love me, It's all that we can do It's a hard way but it's our way My words are weapons My success, it is regression My joy, it is depression I'm leaping just to fall Will we share a tombstone Will I go in the ground all alone If so, will you remarry? Will you marry me at all?

Lyrics:

Gray storm clouds are rushing over Thunder clapped so loud that grown men run for cover Wet raindrops pepper windshields holding down your hat while dust kicked up on the playground but it's just the sound of another heart achin' the pressure that's involved when the fever is breakin' Just these teardrops I can't help from falling and holdin' my breath wondering if I should call him tonight Now my best friend investing interest advising quite politely over lunch where he can stick it but I don't even listen too busy mourning us you know I just can't help but miss him when it's just the sound of logic and reason and practicality's got nothing to do with my feelings tonight When Gray storm clouds are rushing over Thunder clapped so loud that grown men run for cover Wet raindrops pepper windshields holding down your hat the dust kicked up on the playground but it's just the sound of my little heart breakin' my loving days are numbered if you are away and it's hard to imagine my life without you even though I'm sure that I was never right for you at all credits

Lyrics:

Stained glass and telephones, Trace the edges of these creaking bones, Where sunlight dares not go, Shadows now where once our fingers wrote, Along you arm, Little kisses in the dark, Strangers like us, Pacing the floor naked, Wrapping up in blankets as you said, You're not like other men, Strange we've never met before and then, The lights went out, Smoke comes curling from your mouth, Tangled like us. Reading your letter I, Hope that we could meet some future time, That we could stroll the park, Drinking wine and talking until dark, And then we'd part, Seems to me that it's a start, Two friends like us...

Lyrics:

December seventeenth, nineteen-hundred three, propellors turned to wings. The age of air and hand, besides the bicycle man, set unknown fates to spin. Let high the waits spun round, let the engine sound. And show her skill take crowd. Lieutenant Selfridge cried, over maker flight. The hand's been open wide, and helped his life and flight. Got fate to wreck and land, tangling constantly. In bloodied coffins send, wherefore fills arm in sling, he dreamt of curious things. Of terrible flying machines with wings under their wings.

Lyrics:

All the black white diamonds sparkle in the night Climb inside our faces fill us with delight Shook a mountain day dream shining all the time Up and meet the snowflakes falling while you climb oh Count the cowboys sunsets exploding in the sky Clapping hands with angels as they go flying by up high Slippery slope start smiling take you for a ride Down into the valley out the other side oh ooh All the black white diamonds sparkle in the night No one left to call on you said all your goodbyes Slippery slope start smiling take you for a ride Down into the valley out the other side oh ooh Oh ooh oh ooh oh ooh

Lyrics:

Hanging by a thread Lady color folds her linens on her lonely bed Hanging by a thread While she pictures where her husband used to lay his head Hanging by a thread And she's try to find a way to get the baby fed She couldn't get this thought of her head And casually it seems to me That we don't have the luxury Of pushing where we'd rather be instead Certainly priorities are shift As they ought to be WHen you're handing by a thread Doctor Whilelm tests his theory how the virus spread Hanging by a thread While he's chewing on the rations of the bakers bread Hanging by a thread And their home is just a place he goes To rest his head He turned and this is what he said And casually it seems to me That we don't have the luxury Of pushing where we'd rather be instead Certainly priorities are shift As they ought to be WHen you're handing by a thread He said no matter becomes of me I can say honestly That person that I used to be is dead And all because of I what I was Why, because, because nothings left for me to do instead I'm hanging by a thread All the ministers admit that we all misled Hanging by a thread But tragically apologies don't raise the dead And in the speech nothing much was said And casually it seems to me That we don't have the luxury Of pushing where we'd rather be instead Certainly priorities are shift As they ought to be When you're handing by a thread I said that No matter what becomes of me I can tell you honestly That person that I used to be is dead All because of what I was Why? Becase, because, because Nothing's left for me to do instead I'm hanging by a thread

Lyrics:

I can’t un-think the thought of you I can’t un-want, I can’t un-need you here with me I can’t un-lose myself in you I can’t, I won’t unlove you I can’t un-kiss you backstage right I can’t un-call you through the bookcase wall that night We can’t un-talk the whole night through I can’t, I won’t unlove you And I long for the day When I look at your face And I won’t feel a thing, No, I won’t feel a thing, But ‘till then, ‘till then… I can’t un-hear, I can’t un-see I can’t un-care that you’re somewhere unloving me I try and try, but what’s the use? I can’t, I won’t unlove you

Lyrics:

You are my favorite person To be angry with To feel lonely with Be misunderstood by I can’t understand why My favorite person is you You are the endless frustration I complain about But can’t live without My favorite pastime is spent Holding grudges against you Who needs the kind of bliss They write about in movie scripts? I’d much prefer A happiness that hurts You are my favorite person You’re the one I want To slam doors upon The one I deserve Love’s the four letter word I have reserved for you It’s very easy to see In all your anger for me That I’m your favorite person too
