So I walk Alone I ask no quarter friend I walk alone Til I find you again I know no place to call my bed But I know this thorny crown If you would only feed your head You’d see your hands are bound ---

I feel the pain inside my heart Like a knife it tears me apart My tears they shed I have no one God, please tell me what i have done? I have no friends, no one who cares Nobody with love they can share They laugh at me, I don’t know why! I lock the door and i cry I see myself, I am a man Just like you and all of your friends My heart so warm, shattered like glass Don’t know how much longer I can last I have no friends, no one who cares nobody with love they can share They laugh at me, I don’t know why! I lock the door and i cry Alone again…I’m alone again Alone again…I’m alone again Well that’s how it will be 'til the end ---

I’m walking down a street where children play When they see me they run away She will not look at me, she won’t say why And when I ask her she just cries No-one will talk to me, they turn to go Their faces say there’s something I should know Could I be a victim of the games of all my friends Or am I really being watched by the eye of the lens My world is empty now, no-one comes near No-one can stand the smell of fear Hours pass so slowly, time beats a drum As I wait for what I hope won’t come ---

What I dream I had: Pressed in organdy; Clothed in crinoline of smoky Burgundy; Softer than the rain. I wandered empty streets Down past the shop displays. I heard cathedral bells Tripping down the alley ways, As I walked on. And when you ran to me Your cheeks flushed with the night. We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight, I held your hand. And when I awoke and felt you warm and near, I kissed your honey hair with my grateful tears. Oh I love you, girl. Oh, I love you. ---

The room was empty as I staggered from my bed I could not bear the image racing through my head… Came the dawn And you were gone You were gone, gone, gone I had too much to dream last night Too much to dream I’m not ready to face the light I had too much to dream Last night Last night ---

Every time that I look in the mirror All these lines on my face getting clearer The past is gone, it went by like dusk to dawn Isn’t that the way? Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay Yeah, I know nobody knows Where it comes and where it goes I know it’s everybody’s sin You got to lose to know how to win Half my life’s in books written pages Live and learn from fools and from sages You know it’s true All the things you do come back to you Sing with me, sing it for the year Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear Sing with me, if it’s just for today Maybe tomorrow, the Good Lord will take you away Dream on, dream on, dream on, Dream until your dream come true Dream on, dream on, dream on, And dream until your dream come true ---

Welcome to my dream And how are you? Will you be here long? Or just passing through? Brush off that stardust Where have you been? Don’t tell me my rainbow Was late getting in Welcome to my dream It now seems real You’re what it needed To make it ideal So glad you got here And I hope you can stay But welcome to my dream Anyway ---

An old man walks along on the sidewalk Sunglasses and an old Stetson hat The four winds blow the back of his overcoat away As he stops with the policeman to chat And a train rolls out of the station That was really somethin’ in its day Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails As it carries the passengers away It’s gone Only a dream And it’s fading now Fading away Only a dream Just a memory without anywhere to stay ---

The bridge holds back the sky Can’t hold back what’s inside And the train above me Sounds like the music in my head My thoughts are undecided I think it so I hide it And the train rushes past Like a day gone too fast I wish that I was stronger Could keep my head for longer I sit and watch my fear But it won’t disappear I can dream myself away Lose myself for days And the train rushes past Like a day gone too fast All I know is here and now All I know is here and now And the train rushes past Like a day gone too fast And the train rushes past Like a life gone too fast ---

Train set and match spied under the blind Shiny and contoured the railway winds And I’ve heard the sound from my cousin’s bed The hiss of the train at the railway head Always the summers are slipping away A 60 ton angel falls to the earth A pile of old metal, a radiant blur Scars in the country, the summer and her Always the summers are slipping away Find me a way for making it stay ---

With a sigh, you turn away With a deepening heart, no more words to say. You will find that the world has changed forever. And the trees are now turning from green to gold And the sun is now fading I wish I could hold you closer ---

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side The summer’s gone, and all the flowers are dying 'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow 'Tis I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so. And if you come, when all the flowers are dying And I am dead, as dead I well may be You’ll come and find the place where I am lying And kneel and say an “Ave” there for me. And I shall hear, tho’ soft you tread above me And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be If you’ll not fail to tell me that you love me I’ll simply sleep in peace until you come to me. ---

Let’s talk of peace, sounds so cliche A novelty catch phrase of the day Middle, index, sign of the time Just as complex as water to… Someone said give peace a chance And that’s all that we’re saying While we’re sitting on the fence pretending Our hearts are in the right place But your face shows a trace of hypocrisy Don’t tread on me Now you can see Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me We can’t afford to say these words lightly Or else our world will truly rest in peace ---

On a perfect day Come my way And see what matters and what you’ll never find There’s a storm in your eyes When your body’s next to mine I know that angels come from time to time Can you see better things, coming your way? Can you feel all heavy air, lifting off your days? Can you see it’s easy when you open up your mind? I know that angels come from time to time Laid up above the road I’ll never know Where the finest hours seem to go I just look out to space Me and my faith I know that angels come from time to time ---

Out to lunch, speak your piece Good and drunk, back on the street What you see is what you get No matter what you say No time for anything to take the pain away You sure ain’t the chosen few You sure turned trick or two You pulled the deuce this time Another perfect day Golden boy, take a chance You’re a clockwork toy, you’re a dime a dance The truth is only black and white No shade of grey It’s easy answers babe But it’s the hell to pay You know it’s just the same for you Ain’t nothin’ you can do No chance to change it now Another perfect day ---

Each attempt to clarify Serves only to confuse And it feels just like a fracture But it looks more like a bruise And my heart can’t bear the weight Of one more empty “I love you” And I’ve strained my eyes to blindness Trying to find a point of view Now don’t go thinkin’ that I’m crazy Just because I am ’Cause I wouldn’t act indifferent If I didn’t give a damn And if you think this kind of tempest May just be your cup of tea Then I’d like to offer you The heart of me Now don’t go thinkin’ that I love you Just because I do ’Cause I’ve never met a certainty I couldn’t misconstrue But if you think this kind of tempest May just be your cup of tea Then I’d like to offer you The heart of me [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-speak-to-me-only-in-song-lyrics/658502.md?page=197) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-speak-to-me-only-in-song-lyrics/658502.md?page=199)
