I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain ---

Oh, the deeper I spin Oh, the hunter will sin for your ivory skin Took a drive in the dirty rain To a place where the wind calls your name Under the trees the river laughing at you and me Hallelujah, heavens white rose The doors you open I just can’t close Don’t turn around, don’t turn around again Don’t turn around, your gypsy heart Don’t turn around, don’t turn around again Don’t turn around, and don’t look back Come on now love, don’t you look back! Who’s gonna ride your wild horses? Who’s gonna drown in your blue sea? Who’s gonna taste your salt water kisses? Who’s gonna take the place of me? Who’s gonna ride your wild horses? Who’s gonna tame the heart of thee? ---

She floats like a swan Grace on the water Lips like sugar Lips like sugar Just when you think you’ve caught her She glides across the water She calls for you tonight To share this moonlight You’ll flow down her river She’ll ask and you’ll give her Lips like sugar - Sugar kisses Lips like sugar - Sugar kisses She knows what she knows I know what she’s thinking Sugar kisses Sugar kisses Just when you think she’s yours She’s flown to other shores To laugh at how you break And melt into this lake You’ll flow down her river But you’ll never give her Lips like sugar - Sugar kisses Lips like sugar - Sugar kisses ---

Just when the thought occurs The panic will pass And the smell of the fields Never lasts Put your faith in those Crimson nights Set sail in those Turquoise days You’ve got a problem Come on over You got a problem Come on over It’s not for glory It’s not for honor Just something Someone said It’s not for love It’s not for war Just hands clasped together It’s not for living It’s not for hunger Just lips locked tight It’s not rebellion It’s not suffering It’s just the way it is And my pistols packed And my God goes with me I fell easy And I want it And I need it And I’ve got it It’s not for this It’s not for that It’s not any of it Did you say knowledge? Did you say prayer? Did you say anything? If not for good If not for better If not the way it is ---

Standing in line, marking time Waiting for the welfare dime 'Cause they can’t buy a job The man in the silk suit hurries by As he catches the poor old lady’s eyes Just for fun he says, “Get a job.” That’s just the way it is Some things will never change That’s just the way it is Ah, but don’t you believe them ---

Take a look at my girlfriend She’s the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend Never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo across the water Like to see America See the girls in California I’m hoping it’s going to come true But there’s not a lot I can do Could we have kippers for breakfast? Mummy dear, Mummy dear They got to have 'em in Texas Cos everyone’s a millionaire I’m a winner, I’m a sinner Do you want my autograph?

Another PT standard for **buddha\_dave** : Riding on a unicorn Stranded in my mind Electric raven met me there To see what we could find Strange days Incredible days Bring all my children to me Strange ways Incredible ways On a dark stars endless journey Endless realms of faded dreams Lie stranded with the truth We climb up on the wind of change We say “You know the joke’s on you” Strange days Incredible days Bring all my children to me Strange ways Incredible ways On a dark stars endless journey ---

Johnny take a walk With your sister the moon Let her pale light in To fill up your room You’ve been living underground Eating from a can You’ve been running away From what you don’t understand… Love She’s slipping You’re sliding down She’ll be there When you hit the ground It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right She moves in mysterious ways It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right She moves in mysterious ways ---

Stranded here on Planet Earth It’s not much but it could be worse Everything’s free here, there’s no crowds Winter lasted five long years No Sun will come again I fear Chemical harvest was sown And I will wait for you Until the sky is blue And I will wait for you What else can I do? A spaceship from another star They ask me where all the people are What can I tell them? I tell them I’m the only one **There was a war but I must have won** Please, take me with you. And I will wait for you Until the sky is blue And I will wait for you What else can I do? ---

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, Nothing worth doing that I haven’t tried. There ain’t no living on planet-side, Come on with me, baby, on a rocket ride. How many cities crumble into dust At the first atomic attack? How many self-aware, wise, and just Computers will we have to hack? How many supercars will turn to rust 'Cause we don’t have a spare or a jack? Give me technology we can trust, And give it fins like a Cadillac. I want a shining tower of glass and steel, A rubber jumpsuit and a freeze-dried meal, The will to survive, the need to explore, The love of adventure, who could ask for more? I want you, baby, right by my side, Help me get out before my brain is fried. The stars are waiting, so big and wide, Come on with me, baby, on a rocket ride. Come on with me, baby, on a rocket ride. ---

You found the ladder in the pattern of your wrist You’ve seen and you’ve marked horizons Mother was difficult, she made you cry Cover the mirror, look to the sky You climb into your rocket ship trying Lift up and hold out your hands Saturn is orbiting nothing Is off on its own It’s breaking from home Saturn is orbiting nothing Is off on its own It’s breaking from home Saturn returns when you chase down, it slows Throw them into a new gravity Harder to look yourself square in the eye Easy to poke yourself, easy as pie Easy to take off, harder to fly Harder to wake Galileo ---

There’s no escape There’s no way out of here I’m locked in this universe The real world will disappear Where fantasy dies You will see our dreams Material lies - Materialize Computer eyes - Computerize Virtual reality - computer override Actual fantasy locked away inside Am I no more than a program, an artificial dream? A river of electrons flowing with the stream A parallel dimension battle simulations Mind over matter brain stimulation I don’t know if I exist I think therefore I am Without emotions I’m but a hologram There’s no escape I’m locked in this Universe Where fantasy dies Material lies Computer eyes ---

The White Bird dreams of the aspen trees With their dying leaves Turning gold But the White Bird just sits in the cage Growing old White Bird must fly Or she will die The sunsets come The sunsets go The clouds roll by And the Earth turns slow And the young bird’s eyes do always glow And she must fly She must fly She must fly [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-speak-to-me-only-in-song-lyrics/658502.md?page=208) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-speak-to-me-only-in-song-lyrics/658502.md?page=210)
