Lady I know there, name of Christina
Six lonely lifetimes since I’ve seen her
She takes you places your heart cannot go
Been forty days and forty nights
Since my baby done left this town
Been searching for her everywhere
Like a blind man
In the dark
My eyes are blind but I can see
The snowflakes glisten on the tree
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel the snowflakes freezing me
Fell asleep, had a dream by the winter tree
Heard the snow fall and melt into spring
Saw the ice lose its hold
On the pale frost grass
To which it clings
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone
There’s a fire in the corner slowly dyin’ away
Sometimes I just don’t feel like goin’ on anymore
And yet I know it’s more than worth the waiting
For another chance to see the summer sun
Come on, shine on me
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find
Oh, heaven let your light shine down
Heaven, is the whole of our hearts
And Heaven don’t tear you apart
Yeah, Heaven, is the whole of our hearts
And Heaven don’t tear you apart
You ride on the swing in and out of the bars
Capturing moments of life in a jar
Playing with children and acting as stars
Guiding your vision to heaven
And heaven is in your mind
Mama, take this badge off of me
I can’t use it anymore
It’s gettin’ dark, too dark to see
I feel I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
F-F-Faustus
You’ve got nothing to fear
It may be hell down there
'Cause it’s Heaven up here
I got corruption
Seduction
Destruction
Reproduction
Hey now, hey now now, sing This Corrosion to me
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There’s more to the picture than meets the eye
Hey hey, my my
Hay hay mama said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat gonna make you groove
Oh oh child way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn gonna make you sting
Hay hay baby when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip can’t stay away
So ah-hah, hey honey don’t, well honey don’t
Honey don’t, honey don’t, well honey don’t
I say you will when you won’t, ah-hah honey don’t
My love throws me like a rubber ball
Oh-oh-oh, the sweetest thing
She won’t catch me or break my fall
Oh-oh-oh, the sweetest thing
I’m like a rubber ball
Baby that’s all that I am to you
(Bouncy, bouncy) (bouncy, bouncy)
Just a rubber ball

“She’s been dead since 1929”
Oh, how I cried that night
If only I’d been born in Lily’s time
It would have been alright
I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they’re real
I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
