Abandoned Love
03:15

I can hear the turning of the key
I’ve been deceived by the clown inside of me
I thought that she was righteous but she’s vain
Oh, something’s telling me I wear the ball and chain
My patron saint is fighting with a ghost
She’s always off somewhere when I need her most
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
But my heart is tellin’ me I love ya still
I come back to the town from the flaming moon
I see you in the streets, I begin to swoon
I long to see you dress before the mirror
Won’t you let me in your room one time, before I finally disappear
Everybody’s wearing a disguise
To hide what they’ve got left behind their eyes
But me, I can’t cover what I am
Oh, let the children go, I’ll follow them
I march in the parade of liberty
But as long as I love you, I’m not free
How long must I suffer such abuse
Won’t you let me see you smile, before I turn you loose
I’ve given up the game, I’ve got to leave
The pot of gold is only make-believe
The treasure can’t be found by men who search
Whose gods are dead and whose queens are in the church
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed
I asked you please to cross me off your list
My head tells me it’s time to make a change
But my heart is telling me, I love ya but you’re strange
One more time at midnight, near the wall
Take off your heavy makeup and your shawl
Won’t you descend from the throne on which you sit
Let me feel your love one more time before I abandon it

Black Crow Blues
02:32
|

I woke in the mornin' wanderin'
Weary and worn out
I woke in the mornin' wanderin'
Weary and worn out
Wishin' my long-lost lover
Would walk to me, talk to me
Tell me what it's all about
I was standin' at the side road
Listenin' to the billboard knock
Standin' at the side road
Listenin' to the billboard knock
Well, my wrist was empty
But my nerves were kickin’,
Tickin' like a clock
If I got anything you need, babe
Let me tell you in front
If I got anything you need, babe
Let me tell you in front
You can come to me sometime
Night time, day time
Any time you want
Sometimes I'm thinkin I'm
Too high to fall
Sometimes I'm thinkin I'm
Much too high to fall
Other times I'm thinkin' I'm
So low I don't know
If I can come up at all
Black crows in the meadow
Sleeping across a broad highway
Black crows in the meadow
Across a broad highway
Though its funny, honey
I just don't feel much like a
Scarecrow today

The Chain
03:36
|
|||
Slipped into the deltas of my emptiness
I let the teardops fall, I let 'em go
Stepped into the canyons of my loneliness
And I went about as far as I could go
And even as I searched for you, I knew
That even if I found you, you'd be so cold
And even when I found you now, baby, I knew
That I had gone about as far as I could go
And if you don't love me now
you will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
you would never break the chain
I can still hear you saying
That if you don't love me now, oh, oh, oh oh
You won't love me again
I don't mean to beg, but I don't know what else to say
If you meant what you said, you'd've been here yesterday
I won't watch you go, no, I won't even try
There you go down the road, but don't look to me to say goodbye
And if you don't love me now
you will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
you would never break the chain
I can still hear you saying
you would never break the chain
And if you don't love me now, oh, oh, oh oh
You won't love me again
You won't love me again
You won't love me again

Eyes
02:29
|

Missed the last train home
Birds pass by to tell me that I'm not alone
Over pushing myself to finish this part
Can handle a lot but one thing I miss...is in your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
Have you seen this film
It reminds me of walking through the avenues
Washin' my hands, attachment scared
land on the ground, but one thing I miss...is in your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes

Hannah Hunt

A gardener told me some plants move
But I could not believe it
Till me and Hannah Hunt
Saw crawling vines and weeping willows
As we made our way from Providence to Phoenix
A man of faith said
Hidden eyes could see what I was thinking
I just smiled and told him
That was only true of Hannah
As we glided on through Waverley and Lincoln
Our days were long our nights were longer
Count the seconds, watching hours
Though we live on the US dollar
You and me we got our own sense of time
In Santa Barbara, Hannah cried
Amidst those freezing beaches
And I walked into town
To buy some kindling for the fire
Hannah tore the New York Times up into pieces
If I can't trust you then damn it, Hannah
There's no future, there's no answer
Though we live on the US dollar
You and me we got our own sense of time

Snowman
03:35
|

It isn't even winter and I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
It isn't even winter and I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
He's been building me
Up quite steadily
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years
I wait patiently
Frozen history
All ice water is tears and tears and tears and tears
He treats me far too frosty
This hanging on has cost me dear
It isn't even winter and I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
It isn't even winter and I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
He's been building me
Up up steadily
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years
I wait patiently
Frozen history
All ice water is tears and tears and tears and tears
He treats me far too frosty
This hanging on has cost me
It seems you could say I was too soft-hearted
If you made a dunce cap, I'd don it
People will always be tempted to wipe their feet
On anything with "welcome" written on it
It isn't even winter but I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
It isn't even winter but I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know
(Why, oh, why)
Does he treat me like a snowman
(Why, oh, why) does he treat me, does he treat me
(Why, oh, why) does he treat me, does he treat me

Toxic
03:17
|
|||
Baby, can’t you see I’m calling
A guy like you should wear a warning
It’s dangerous, I’m fallin’
There’s no escape, I can’t hide
I need a hit, baby, give me it
It's dangerous, I’m lovin’ it
Too high, can’t come down
It's in the air and it's all around
Can you hear me now
With a taste of your lips I’m on a ride
(You're toxic, I'm slipping under)
Taste of your poison paradise
I’m addicted to you, but you know that you’re toxic
And I love what you do, but you know that you’re toxic
It’s getting late to give it up
I took a sip from my devil cup
Slowly it’s taking over me
Too high, can’t come down
It’s in the air and it’s all around
Can you feel me now
With a taste of your lips I’m on a ride
(You're toxic, I'm slipping under)
Taste of your poison paradise
I’m addicted to you, but you know that you’re toxic
And I love what you do, but you know that you’re toxic
I’m addicted to you, but you know that you’re toxic
Intoxicate me now, I think I'm ready now
you're gonna love it now, I think I'm ready now
Intoxicated now, you're gonna love it now
I think I'm ready now, I think I'm ready now
Intoxicate me now, I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now

Let us free you from the pain
Let us see you smile again
Let us unlock all the chains
You're broken-hearted
Let us help you to forget
Let us help you unlock it
It's not nearly time to quit
You've only started
You gotta
Sit down funny face
Oh, let your laughter fill the room
Light up your golden smile
Take away all your misery and gloom
Oh, let your laughter fill the room
Oh, let your laughter fill the room
Let us take you by the hand
Let us help you understand
Take your head out of the sand
And shake it free now
Let us help you to go on
We are here to lean upon
Now you know exactly just who
You want to be now
Sit down funny face
Oh, let your laughter fill the room
Light up your golden smile
Take away all your misery and gloom
Oh, let your laughter fill the room
Oh, let your laughter fill the room

Will It Keep
04:52
|

You think you're so smart
but baby you're playing a part
I guess I'm guilty again
because I always let you in
And you got a heart
but it's weak and it's breaking apart
Well maybe it's not too late
and we could still resuscitate
How should I feel
when I thought we had a deal
We took a break
and now I'm still awaiting my take
The last time we spoke
you told me my life was a joke
You laughed 'till you choked
and went back to mirrors and smoke
And I get the impression
that you think you're too good for me.
Well I've got a confession
I was only hoping for some charity
And it's so frustrating
I just need one good night's sleep
and I hate the waiting just to see if it will keep
Your day will come
and that day will pass you by
The damage is done
and you'll just sit and wonder why
It's such a shame,
it's a such a forgettable game
but no one's to blame
you went out the way you came
You want them to like you
and always need you there
You want them to want it
you need to know they care
You want them to like you
and always need you there
You want to be wanted
You need to know they care
You want them to like you
and always need you there.
You want them to want it,
you wish that you didn't care
So now that you're gone
I still wonder what went wrong
Abuse what I love
it's something I'm not very proud of
And I got the impression
that you thought you were too good for me
well I've got a confession
I was only looking for some charity
And it's so frustrating
I just need one good night sleep
and I hate the waiting just to see if it will keep

Wish I Was The Moon
03:33
|

Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I've freezing hands and bloodless veins
As numb as I've become
I'm so tired
I wish I was the moon tonight
Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my name
'Cause I had sold my soul but awoke just the same
I'm so lonely
I wish I was the moon tonight
God bless me, I'm a free man
With no place free to go
Paralyzed and collared-tight
No pills for what I fear
This is crazy
I wish I was the moon tonight
Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I've freezing hands & bloodless veins
As numb as I've become
I'm so tired,
I wish I was the moon tonight
How will you know if you found me at last
'Cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the one
With my heart in my lap
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
And I wish I was the moon tonight
I'm so tired, I'm so tired,
And I wish I was the moon
I'm so tired, I'm so tired, I'm so tired
And I wish I was the moon tonight
