In a storm like this, a hundred kisses of snow
You with another so easily sleep
What’s real and what’s dreamt become close and entwine
When you were mine
It’s a marshmallow world in the winter,
When the snow comes to cover the ground.
It’s the time for play, it’s a whipped cream day,
I wait for it all year round!
Now the first of December was covered with snow
So was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
The Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
MacArthur’s Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don’t think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I’ll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
Our hands get tied to our minds and
We keep on talking in our sleep
Green is the colour of her kind
Quickness of the eye
Deceives the mind
Envy is the bond between
The hopeful and the damned
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
Your future dying in the past
Evergreen
Ever, ever, evergreen
Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow
Love ageless and evergreen…
My love for you is immeasurable
My respect for you immense
You’re ageless, timeless, lace and fineness
You’re beauty and elegance
You’re a rhapsody, a comedy
You’re a symphony and a play
You’re every love song ever written
But honey what do you see in me
I see a bad moon a-rising,
I see trouble on the way,
I see earthquakes and lightnin’,
I see bad times today.
Maybe it’s just an ego problem
Problem is that I’ve been fooled before
By fair-weather friends and faint hearted lovers
And every time it happens it just convinces me more
When you’re in love with a beautiful woman, you watch her eyes
When you’re in love with a beautiful woman, you look for lies
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Sorrow what does revolution mean to you
To save today is like wishing in the wind
All my beautiful friends have all gone away
Like the waves they flow and ebb and die
There’s a revolution
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Girls have picked them every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Red never left his hand
And the blue was wrong
With a green too strong
Never what he planned
Now, in a rumpled bed
With a night to kill
He’ll be painting still
If he isn’t dead
Now, he can only stare
As the old dream falls
At the mocking walls
And the walls are bare
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand
Oh beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesty
Above the fruited plain
America, America
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea
From sea to shining sea
I never realized until now how the colors in the last two song lyrics line up so well. I wonder if it was deliberate, unconscious, or total coincidence.
Oh, beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.
LMFAO…been there and done that, Clark…
Losing emotion
Finding devotion
Should I dress in white and search the sea
As I always wished to be
One with the waves
Ocean Soul
Walking the tideline
I hear your name
It’s angels whispering
Something so beautiful it hurts
Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep so beware! Beware!
