A Loner longing for
Run away, run away! Run away, run away!
The cadence of her last breath
Run away, run away! Run away, run away!
Put to rest all that`s not life
Drink for beauty and fill my blank page
Sometimes a dream turns into a dream
A Loner longing for
Run away! Run away! Run away, run away!
The cadence of her last breath
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs
If there’s no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the dark
If you’re going through hell, keep on going
Don’t slow down, if you’re scared don’t show it
You might get out before the devil even knows you’re there
But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it’s over, you know
We’ll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone, gone, gone
Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums
Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone
So while you’re here in my arms
Let’s make the most of the night like we’re gonna die young
(We’re gonna die young)
(We’re gonna die young)
Let’s make the most of the night like we’re gonna die young
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The river to the ocean goes,
A fortune for the undertow.
None of this is going my way.
There is nothing left to throw
Of ginger, lemon, indigo,
Coriander stem and rose of hay.
Strength and courage overrides
The privileged and weary eyes
Of river poet search naivete.
Pick up here and chase the ride.
The river empties to the tide.
All of this is coming your way
First the tide rushes in
Plants a kiss on the shore
Then rolls out to sea
And the sea is very still once more
So I rush to your side
Like the oncoming tide
With one burning thought
Will your arms open wide?
We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me
Think of all the things
We’ve shared and seen
Don’t think about the way
Things might have been
Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind
Recall those days, look back on all those times
Think of those things we’ll never do
There will never be a day
When I won’t think of you
Sleep while the sweet sorrow wakes my daydream
Sleep while you think of me with kindness,
please remember former days.
And you know, and you know.
And you know, when we two parted in tears and silence
past the days, the parting ways.
Fare thee well,
fare thee well,
you that was once dear to me.
Think of me with kindness
Think of me.
There’s no more wishes in the well
No more dreams to sell
No time in the hourglass
There’s no more lies for you to tell
Your heaven is your hell
You future dying in the past
Evergreen
Ever, ever, evergreen
Evergreen
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
I know I’m never going to learn
Fingers fit to burn
You can’t let the fire die
Keep the flame of your desire
Always rising higher
Aim for the stars and hit the sky
Love, ageless and evergreen
Seldom seen by two
I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do…
And your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes, you will always be
My endless love
On and on
She just keeps on trying
And she smiles when she feels like crying
On and on, On and on, On and on
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
'Til the night is gone
Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
There are visions, there are memories
There are echoes of thundering hooves
There are fires, there is laughter
There’s the sound of a thousand doves
In the velvet of the darkness
By the silhouette of silent trees
They are watching, they are waiting
They are witnessing life’s mysteries
Cascading stars on the slumbering hills
They are dancing as far as the sea
Riding o’er the land, you can feel it’s gentle hand
Leading on to it’s destiny
Take me with you on this journey
Where the boundries of time are now tossed
In cathedrals of the forest
In the words of the tongues now lost
Find the answers, ask the questions
Find the roots of an ancient tree
Take me dancing, take me singing
I’ll ride on till the moon meets the sea
Trucks loaded down with weapons
Crossing over every night
Moon yellow and bright
There is a shortage in the blood supply
But there is no shortage of blood
The way I feel about you baby can’t explain it
You got the best of my love
Molotov cocktail’s the local drink
Drink to me,
Drink to my health,
You know I can’t drink anymore.
I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
You know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
