And I need time no more
(tomorrow)
When you can’t cry no more
(tomorrow)
And a love died before
(tomorrow)
Look behind no more
(tomorrow)
It’s just another fine day, recall
Don’t follow me down, no more
As we rise we form
A new gold dawn
I should have known
I’d leave alone
Just goes to show
That the blood you bleed is just the blood you own
We were a pair
But I saw you there
Too much to bear
You were my life, but life was far away from fair
Was I stupid to love you?
Was I reckless to help?
Was it obvious to everybody else
That I’ve fallen for a lie?
You were never on my side
Fool me once, fool me twice
Are you death or paradise?
Now you’ll never see me cry
There’s just no time to die
I’m a fool to want you
I’m a fool to want you
To want a love that can’t be true
A love that’s there for others too
Fools rush in, where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know
When we met, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
Ooh now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands gettin’ wet, oh
I got no reason to doubt you baby
It’s all a terrible mess
And I’ll run in the rain 'til I’m breathless
When I’m breathless I’ll run ‘til I drop, hey!
And the thoughts of a fool’s gotta count of careless
I’m just a fool waitin’ on the wrong block, ohh-yeah
When you move in right up close to me
That’s when I get the shakes all over me
Quivers down my back bone
I’ve got the shakes down the kneebone
Yeah, havin’ the tremors in the thighbone
Shakin’ all over
I got chills, they’re multiplying
And I’m losing control
'Cause the power you’re supplying
It’s electrifying (electrifying)
You’re as cold as ice
You’re willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
Some day you’ll pay the price, I know
I’ve seen it before; it happens all the time
You’re closing the door, you leave the world behind
You’re digging for gold, you’re throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday you’ll pay
Fire and ice
You come on like a flame, then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice
I want to give you my love, but you’ll just take a little piece of my heart
You’ll just tear it apart
You won’t say yes
And you won’t say no
You let my poor heart pound
But you smile at me
And around I go
On the merry-go-run-around
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you?
Horses chasin’, ‘cause they’re racin’
So near yet so far
On a carousel
On a carousel
Keys that jingle in your pocket
As they jangle in your head
Why does summer go so quickly?
Was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along the shore
And leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?
Picture hanging in a hallway
Or the fragment of a song
Half-remembered names and faces
But do whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
Were you suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color of her hair?
Tilting at Windmills
Chasing a dream through greenfields
I lose track of your ideals
I cannot keep up with you
You think you got your game
Planned out
To a T
Yet I’m two
Steps ahead yeah
So … you step into my way
Stand down
It’s a trap
One more step
And you’re dead
(Yeah you’re dead)
Why just a picosecond ago
Clear blue skies
But now lightning’s struck your last resolve
It’s not an accident that no one
Hears your cries
As your last strength seems to dissolve
I was scared and fearing for my life.
I was shakin’ like a leaf on a tree.
‘Cause he was lean, mean,
Big and bad, Lord,
Pointin’ that gun at me.
Oh “Wait a minute, mister,
I didn’t even kiss her.
Don’t want no trouble with you.
And I know you don’t owe me
But I wish you’d let me
Ask one favor from you.”
“Oh, won’t you give me three steps,
Gimme three steps a-mister,
Gimme three steps towards the door?
Gimme three steps
Gimme three steps a-mister,
And you’ll never see a-me no more
For sure.”
Help! I’m stepping into The Twilight Zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon’s been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I’ve gone too far?
I’m just an average guy
With an average life
I work from 9 to 5
Hey, yeah, I pay the price
All I want is to be left alone
In my average home
But why do I always feel like
I’m in the Twilight Zone?
And
I always feel like
Somebody’s watching me
And I get no privacy
I always feel like
Somebody’s watching me
Tell me, is it just a dream?
I took a ride in a limousine
I took a road I’d never been
I met a stranger by the way
His coat was torn but his eyes were clear
Standing in a slide zone
Steppin’ in a slide zone
He told me where a river flows
He showed me how the apple grows
He told me of a magic stream
His face was worn but his eyes were clear
Standing in a slide zone
I could be steppin’ in a slide zone
Standing in a slide zone
I could be steppin’ through a time zone
I’m gonna lay down my burdens
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I’m gonna lay down my burdens
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more
I’ll never be your beast of burden
My back is broad but it’s a hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
I’ll never be your beast of burden
I’ve walked for miles my feet are hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
