| sometimes i think i'm gonna lose my mind
but it don't look like i ever do
i've loved so many people everywhere i went
some too much and others not enough
we can ramble hand in hand across the grasses of our land
i'll kiss you for each leaf on every tree
and all creeds and kinds and colors
of us are blending
till i suppose ten million years from now
we'll all be just alike
someday, some morning, sometime
i'd like to hold your hand in mine
someday, some morning, sometime
every year, we waste enough to feed the ones who starve
we build our civilization up and we shoot it down with wars
will you find another sweetheart in some far and distant land?
sad and lonely now, i wonder if our boat will ever land
i'd like to rest my heavy head tonight
on a bed of california stars
i'd like to lay my weary bones tonight
on a bed of california stars
trees held us in on all four sides so thick we could not see
i could not see any wrong in you, and you saw none in me
by the stars and clouds above, we could spend our lives in love
the mixture is all of us and we're still mixing
| | |
| this is a city for not sleeping
and the clocks are set by feel
at this moment from where i sit
none of it seems real
is it really a sin if we both come out even?
a few summers ago
we spent weeks in her room
just having sex and listening to jazz
and that was the life
but i didn't know it at the time
i hope the weather holds
but you don't need the sun to make you shine
you can't hear the music but we're playing the same tune
each beat, every note played perfectly by you
when we escape, it's with a white lie
we're both alive, now we lay this close
catchy measure of the pulse
i know we won't want for much
it's just you and me and a bed and a shoreline
let's go out on a dock
we'll bring a bottle and a blanket
and everything, yea everything
everything is going our way
midnight on a beach
in the mediterranean
and i miss you
even here, taking it all in
the sand, silvered, carries the moon
on its shoulders
is it possible to put this night to tune
and move it to you?
we sat on a shoreline
watching wind scalp the white off the waves
sitting on a shorline
and if i could do it
i'd dog ear this page
she's gone, she's gone across the border man
and you're never gonna see her again
there's a war on the corner
with no guaranteed winner
it's just a snowfall of snowballs
evidence of the winter

| in your brown eyes
i was feeling low
because they're brown eyes
and you never know
well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
like a star that can't wait for the night
was it ever worth it?
was there all that much to gain?
well we knew we'd missed the boat
and we'd already missed the plane
someday, some morning, some time
i'd like to hold your hand in mine
someday, some morning, some time
hey let's drink from the cup, share some luck
go ahead and laugh because it don't cost much | | |
| well you were so right when you said i've been drinking
what was i thinking when you said goodnight
i was chewing gum for something to do
the blinds were being pulled down on the dew
inside, out of love, what a laugh
i was looking for you
all my lies are always wishes
i know i would die if i could come back new
maybe you still love me, maybe you don't
either you will or you won't
maybe you just need some time alone
i will try to understand
everything has it's plan
the first thing you want will be the last thing you'll ever need
i always thought that if i held you tightly
you would always love me like you did back then
then i fell asleep and the city kept blinking
what was i thinking when i let you back in?
| | |
| got me tucked up in your pocket
don't know how you won my heart
because i'd locked it
there were reasons for you to love me,
but i gave you none
there's nothing of your love
that i'll ever miss
except the memory of late nights
and black coffee in bed
i'm dying to know..do you like dreaming of things so impossible? or only the practical? or ever the wild?
help's not short
when you're digging your grave
i'll help you dig it
so you're digging your grave
now you're speaking my language
i'll help you dig it
perhaps we all give the best of our hearts uncritically to those who hardly think about us in return.
put your eyes on me
and i know a place where we can get away
to say "i want you"
just exactly like i used to
say you'll come back when you can
whenever your airplane happens to land
maybe i'll be back here too
it all depends on what's with you
Enter away message
sometimes i wish i had never met you, because then i could go to sleep at night not knowing there was someone like you out there.
but will i hold you again?
this fickle, fuddled words confuse me
like "will it rain today?"
waste the hours with talking, talking
these twisted games we play
to break a trusting heart like mine was just your style
well i cried for you, now it's your turn to cry a while
i fainly remember breathing on your bedroom floor
where i laid and told you
but you swear you loved me more
Enter away mess
