Never a heaven an age old questionWritten from a cold placeI feel sour I need a showerOr just a slap in the faceCircumstance has left romanceAnd a puzzle in front of meWho knows the endingIf the truth need bendingA lie is the tool that you'll need
So I'm under a mountainStuck to this mattressPerfume and Valium
What makes a Sunday different from MondayCould be a look in her eyesIn need of flattery she changes batteriesSo that her light will shineThe words she uttersEither so flows or stuttersThey're either silly or wiseAnger with concernBut never to yearnOnly to be by your side
Lay down with number 13It's a cold gray shame

We've been avoiding this for so longLuxury is temporary than it's goneI thought that we would happenI guess I'm wrongWe'll say hi on the streetThen we'll move alongI know this will be awkwardBut not for long'Cause soon you'll have a new boyTo sing you songs
I will not forgive youNor will I accept the blameI will see you on Good FridayOn Good Friday
I'm sorry I couldn't do this yesterdayAnd tomorrow I am busyAnd what it is I can't sayAnd Saturday's no goodI got a showSo it's got to be Good FridayThen it's so long
I will not forgive youNor will I accept the blameI will see you on Good FridayOn Good Friday
YouYou come and go when you pleaseI know unfulfilled headsI know you do tooBut IYou know I never see things throughNever paid attention to youBut honey I tried
I will not forgive youNor will I accept the blameI will see you on Good FridayOn Good Friday

Nebakanzer never knewHe left his needle outside in the rainAnd it rusted throughHe had twenty-nine blackbirdsBut only one flewSpent most of his time making holesAnd licking his woundsNebakanezer lost his wifeShe took her diamond rings and wasGone before the lightShe left one satin shoeAnd a very dull knifeShe left one satin shoeAnd a very dull knife
So tell us what the sorry singer might doAll of his friends complainThat they got the fluThey ain't sick in the headThey look like the living deadAnd that's not cool

From the moment you seeThe moment you breathThe moment I touch you
From the moment you crawlThe moment you fallThe instant I loved you again
From the moment of darknessThe moment of lightThe second I kissed you
From the moment I enterThe moment I leaveIn this moment of rapture
One mirror to many gonna tie you upA life forever empty has got to be toughTo many starless night gonna leave you blindCan never make it right
From the moment you stumbleThe moment you runIn your presence I crumbleFrom the moment it happensThe moment you knowThere's no life without you

With pawnshop eyes and a second hand frownShe sat silent at the tableHer boots were brown, well should she leave townTo play the role of lover expatriateA nod to the waiter, always her flirty behaviorYou know she always gets one on the houseShe pulls out a letterFrom a bag under her sweaterAnd before she reads she straightens her blouse
There's a passion in being aloneA grace in a loveless timeThere's no new cross, there's no new signOnly the sun and the changing tide
And out of respect, well really must confessI never lost your numberI never lost your addressAnd if we remain friends at bestSometime later no, no not yetWe'll smile and remember it like this
She put back the letterOne tear falls like a featherAnd disappears on the bar room floorThe gratuity includedYou know the letter concludedP.S. with all my love
There's a passion in being aloneA grace in a loveless timeThere's no new cross, there's no new signOnly the sun and the changing tide
I said P.S. all my loveP.S. all my loveP.S. all my love

What could I do different?It makes one sober to thinkIn an age of illusionIt's hard to know when to stopHow could I live indifferentBelieving in time and fateAs long as I have a witnessMy name is not at stake
Bring on this floweringBring onBring onBring on this flowering
Would you stop to listenThough words cannot describeIt's hard waiting for heavenMay your song keep you alive
And on the day I said good-byeMy drowning tear catches a lightLike the gift of sightThe baby's eye, darkness into lightI can rest my soulAnd walk in the lightI'm positively spring timeThe gift of sightThe baby's eyeDarkness into light

Hey there buddySlow down for meI'm friendly and I'm cleanI will not rob you or cause you miseryYour wheels sound good to meI ain't green with travelAs you can seeI only got one bagIf I am trouble drop me offIn AbileneI'll pay my gasoline
Let me share the rideLet me share the ride
It's hard living on travel timePlease let me share your ride
I never was a young manNever felt oldThis life is a mysteryMy coffee's hot not coldI'll turn your dashboard goldSlow down take a look at me
I'm not not running from anythingI've no past to hideI've got no secrets haunting meI just easy ride
