You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
But I know you just dont care
And I said "What about Breakfast at Tiffany's?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, thats the one thing we've got."
I see you - the only one who knew me,
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now? It's plain to see we're over,
And I hate when things are over -
When so much is left undone.
Souls suffer the landscape
In shrouds of dew, as ghosts.
Their eternity is for searching
But a certain dissnsion grows.
I've seen them wander,
Voices raised in prayer
Consorting in whisper,
They curse the ones not there.
If you didn't want this and I didn't need it,
Then how has this interest become an addiction?
If you didnt want it, then why cant you do without?
I know I'm not your first one,
But I pray I'll be your last.
I've never seen you cry before,
But I know when I make you laugh.
I know and you know, you've heard this all before...
These arms are for holding on.
This heart won't stray from home.
I know, I know...
God tell me, where's my Halo?
Take my head out of my hands,
I'll never go through this again.
I couldn't do it without my friends.
Get it out of me,
And I won't,
I won't
Sweat it.
* "Jack Flo and Josey 19
* Come on in I hope you're clean.
* Do you know how to use this thing?"
* I know, I know.
What you do and where you go
And wherever you go, I'll go
We'll never let it come to this
This comforts me, cuz I know
We can do most anything---
To this I toast and go home.
Don't ever let them pull me out.
And I know I'm not alone.
So you think you can change my world,
And the thoughts of my little girl,
All these things are in my head,
And she says, she said...
It's a waiting game you play.
Still you think that you can win,
So you play on,
Play on.
And the rush hour weaves you home.
In another day you'll break.
You will break down.
(I know it)
Like me.
~ Don't be that way, don't act like that.
~ Please don't be like me.
On the business card you'll leave
Is a name that you don't own.
Credit given, credit taken.
Take it.
In another day you'll sink.
You're the only one afloat,
And the best move, if you'll make it,
(You won't make it)
Is to leave.
Whaddaya do for fun?
Take it out on #1
Yer time is over, Yer TIME HAS COME.
flipper over man she is dun.
Scuuze me missus right...
Ivhadabit too nuchtonite.
U R such a lovely cite.
Ivhadabit too muchtonite.
* Flipper over, flipper over
* She is done.
* In need of, In need of
* Nuthin and every thing.
It seems I smell of sin.
It seems I seek to smile again...
Caint wait to seeya how haveya been?
Flipper over and fly my friends.
It wouldn't be so hard to sleep at night
If I could make a day without a fight.
I really think the world would be impressed
If they were equally as blessed...
Trying just to make it through the day,
Sleeping just to pass the time away,
I don't even know who to listen to.
What I need is a song to make love to.
Wasting years at alarming rates,
I can't just leave my life to fate.
If I could just find a new career...
One that involves a little beer.
Trying just to make it through the day,
Sleeping just to pass the time away,
I don't even know who to listen to.
What I need is a song to make love to.
I've got the same Kandinsky prints that my brother's got,
With the same black frames, like he bought.
In between them, on the wall is something my girlfriend calls trashy...
Brownie and the Boo-man got that for me.
On the wall facing us is a balck-and-white of all of us back in Brighton,
I remember it like today, but the sun has made it fade...
Still, I know you know where England is.
* And I know this ain't home,
* But it sure feels like home.
* I know this somewhere is really nowhere.
I've got a black-and-white t.v., but I don't really see
The need to burden it with cable.
0 I got a sofa from the folks, the table I just stole...
With a neon mickey's sign for no reason.
If I woke up one morning with my memory gone,
I'd pick out some clothes and I'd put them on,
And walk down the street, and find a cafe,
I'd order a Guinness, and I'd sit there all day.
Then some kids would come in and start a fuss
About how great their weekend in New Orleans was
Then I'd look down and smile, like their tale was my own,
And I'd open my eyes, and I'd know I was home,
Where my friends are, even when I'm not.
I wish you were here.
And then it would rain, like it sometimes does,
If we were bored that wouldn't bother us.
We'd just get in the car and drive though the night,
And get lost in East Texas, but no oner would mind
Because we'd find our way home, like we always do.
Funny how the time flies in our youth,
But with darkness approaching, we'll all grow close
In the place we'll call heaven
But for now, we'll just call it home
Where my friends are, even when I'm not.
I wish you were here.
I'll see you-- at home.
She said, "I think it's time for winter
And the trains are all here,
I thing I smell a change in season."
I think the time for change is near.
You say that we have no feelings
We feel like we're here for hire.
Packed it up and then you left me,
It seems your plan has back-fired
Follow me in the soft parade
You don't have to learn today
And you're still lying there in your daze.
See the red lights over Denton town,
See them flashing all around.
I hope we never lose this feeling,
I hope we're never coming down.
The first thing that I do, when I turn myself to bed,
Is pray that I will wake up
Then sleep enters my head.
Now I'm not afraid of dying, I'm proud of all we've done,
But I think I'll go to heaven
And I'll be the only one.
"A simple man in a complex world,"
That's what I've heard them say.
But I hear little voices and they say we're okay.
And you'll say I'm a dreamer, we'll never be number one,
But I just can't help thinking that the best songs go unsung.
And I wouldn't change a thing if my mother said to,
So why should I change a thing because a D.J. says?
I thought that you'd agree after all we've been through.
No I wouldn't change a thing if a Leper said to.
No I wouldn't change a thing,
Because I don't take chances
With something that's this close to me.
She said, "What are you doing to me?
You don't spend your time like you used to do."
I said, "I don't need this kind of junk,
You're talking to much, and I don't believe in you."
She said, "I want to take you out and break your heart,
and bust you down and drag you out, I don't care for one thing about you..."
As she turned to kiss me goodbye.
I said, "I think I'll be alright without you."
