The morning's warm, the air it tickles
A breakfast roll of ham and pickles
On the sidewalk hair is braided
The sun is broody and my body's jaded
A plastic bottle of water warm
I'm 10,000 miles away from harm
A plastic bottle of water warm
I'm 10,000 miles away from harm
Burn your feet on hot cement
The kisses longer and more frequent
Have a beer for thirst not drunk
And pack our bags into the trunk
Draw a scribble on your lovers arm
You're 10,000 miles away from harm
Talk with strangers over coke and rum
Well, should we go by train or thumb?
The village dogs, they walk in dozens
Making friends with their new cousins
We make our way down to the waves
And hear the whistling from the caves
I could be back home on the farm
But I'm 10,000 miles away from harm
I'm 10,000 miles...
Cats and Dogs falling down from heaven.
And I'm drenched right through to the bone.
Splash! A car bursts a puddle.
Is there such a thing in this city
as a pay phone?
The woman I love she knows I'm trying
And she loves me deep inside.
She's got to give me a hard time
Just to keep me by her side
By her side...
I love staying out all night.
Hanging out with all of the boys.
I never get home quiet on time.
And I'm not that good at makin' up lies.
The woman I love she knows I'm buying
Into a great divide.
She'd better give me a hard time
Just to keep me by her side
By her side...
I gotta get home early.
Because my head's beginin' to tingle.
The conversation is gettin' scary
'Cause all of the boys are single
By her side...
Lying in an alley in the back of my mind
I'm wonderin' if you might leave me behind
I hope you don't feel you've been used.
I've never been so in love or so confused
You're in the east getting away
And I'm in the west being led astray
In a dirty old I'm getting boozed
I've never been so in love or so confused
So in love. So in love and so confused
I've never been so in love or so confused
An offer's been made. I smell a rat
Lucifer in a cowgirl hat
If your heart's with me show the clues
I've never been so in love or so confused
So in love. So in love and so confused
I'm in the air now and the moon's on wing
And I can't think about anything
Else but where you have cruised
I've never been so in love or so confused
Now it's down to baggage to collect my case
And I hope a happy face
Standing there in her Indian shoes
I've never been so in love or so confused
So in love. So in love and so confused
I've never been so in love or so confused
It's three o' clock on Monday
There's one more hour of school
There's nothin' in my lunchbox
The teacher's lost his cool
I'm staring out the window
I can't wait to be free
Free of all this bullshit
To act out all my dreams
Well meet me at the car pound
With some cans of spray paint
I can bring some cigarettes
'Cause Momma's gone away
And Daddy's playing poker
He don't care anyways
He's been out since Friday
Squanderin' all his pay
Tonight I plan to make it
To be free at last
Free of all this bullshit
To hike up my mast
I'll write you when I get there
I'll send you my address
'Cause I have got to get this
Lorry off my chest
Meet me...
And you can bring your girl along.
Well if she's got a lovely friend
And we'll show them what us town boys
Do with some time to spend
And bring some Coca Cola
I found a bit of whiskey
'Cause it could be a long time
'Till I'm back here with yee
Meet me...
And Daddy's just a joker
He don't care anyway
He's been out all weekend
Squanderin' all his pay
It's raining down arrows on my heart again
I still can't believe you let me down this way
I'm a good judge of character is what you said
I guess you were makin' that up as well
It's raining down arrows on life again
Some emotions never learn to grow
So what is like to be oh!
Prince of Darkness?
What is like to be
When you're soulless and free?
It's raining down arrows on me heart again
Just when I thought we had it down. To a tee
We were so near the holy grail
We'd better turn back is what you told me
That's what you told me...
And one day the pillars will fall
And then they'll take your chariot away
And how will it feel when you're been
Trod on?
'Cause you're round's
Going to have to come around!
'Cause it's raining down arrows
On my heart again
Muddy waters on the spin
Hanging out at St. James's gate again
Look what a mess you've got me in!
'Cause it's raining down arrows
Sometimes I'd like to fly away
Away to another land
That makes some sense to me
That I that I can understand
Sometimes I'd like to get away
To another place
Where everyday means something more
Than just a friendly face.
To be inspired, the execute my words
Where everyday would have
Somethin' good for you
and somethin' good for me
Sometimes I'd like to catch the sun
And drink it from bowl
So when it's black I am stronger
And it won't shadow my soul
To be inspired
To execute my thoughts
Where everyday would have
Somethin' good for you
And somethin' good for me
Oh! To be inspired
To execute my words
Where everyday would have
Somethin' good for you
Somethin' good for you
And me
Sometimes...
Sometimes I'd like to get away
To another place
Where everyday means something more
Than just an angry face
Despite what you say,
It still makes me adore you
And the harder you kick
The bigger my love
And I know that things
Will soon turn to gold,
Well if you bring out the cold
That's burning you out
Ma ma ma ma ma
My soulmate,
You're losin' control mate,
Gotta run from the savage,
'Cause he feeds from the idle mind
Tell me. I've heard it before
'Cause I've got to tell it to someone,
Who told someone before
'Cause their head was caving in,
You know you thicken up the air
And it's not fair,
Spit out and breathe in...
How clear the air can be...
Ma ma ma ma ma
My soulmate...
And the world will roll regardless
You've got to sit and take and take the spin,
If you're not happy with your ride,
Help someone else's begin
My soulmate
He feeds from the...
And he'll work at your...
And he'll dig at your...
And he'll pick at your...
My soulmate
Sleep now, it's O.K.
The ghost is gone, gone away,
You fought him good, you fought him well,
You lost your love,
But you found yourself
Dream, a dream,
Something good, a rockin' chair
Made of wood on a porch in the sun,
With a child in your arms
Not a shot gun
And there's a man,
The man for you and your love
Is made of glue, you'll always have
Food and health
And just the right
Amount of wealth
'Cause he is gone
Yeah! He is gone from your life
He's passed through this room
And you can sleep now
'Cause he is gone without your love
He's passed through this room
Breathe out,
Float away, sleep now
It's okay, the future's bright,
Feel the pull...
The cracks are filled,
You're beautiful,
That carpets swept,
The bed is slept, no more nights
Of regret, you fought him good,
You fought him well,
In this strange
Sold hotel
And if this day should go on forever
And your hand never lost its grip,
I'd never doubt or be in need,
Lonesome, would be bleached from my mind
It's hard to write a sad song
When you're happy
That's why I've done none for you,
Tell me when I'm wrong and forgetful,
That you will always be true
And just to know that you'll be comin' home,
To hear the sound of your keys,
Hangin' up your coat in the hallway,
Well I will never doubt or be in need
And sometimes I wonder just who you are,
What brought us together,
It's a certain kind of magic
One to never question or take for granted
Or take for granted
And just to know...
To hear the rattle of your keys,
Hangin' up your bag in the hallway...
You're too high to be that low
You're too fast to be that slow
I was lookin' up and I saw you go
I was lookin' up and I saw you go
You're too high to be that low
You're too young to be that old
You're too dear to be that sold
I threw in a bid a hunk of gold
I threw in a bit a chunk of gold
You're too young to be that old
Throw down the crutches
And walk into the night
You'll always be wrong
If you're never right
Lying with the dogs
Rising with the fleas
Bouncin' off the walls
Barkin' at the trees
Barkin' at the trees
Brakin' at the trees
You're too strong to be that weak,
You're too bred to be that speak that speak
I saw you in a bar speakin' nasty things
I saw you in a bar speakin' nasty things
You're too strong to be that weak
And I will know it's time to go
When all the love's been made,
I can't see you in my eyelids,
I contemplate a trade,
When tempted by a witch,
I want to make an attempt,
When you my love I treat so bad
And model you a maid
And model you a maid
When we're sleeping back to back
And we wake on different sides,
Drinking from two cups...
And when you're gone
With your knapsack,
Please don't feel so bad
'Cause the times we spent together
Were the best I ever had,
The ring you gave me in Greenwich,
The stone fell out and smashed,
But the ring was never broken
And what do you say to that?
What can you say to that?
When we're sleeping back to back
And we're takin' different sides
Drinking from two cups...
And all the love's we made
We should not be afraid
When all the love's been made
When we're sleeping back to back
And we break on different sides
Drinking from two cups...
When we're sleeping back to back
And we wake on different sides
And all the love's been made...
And all the love and all the love...
You're the one that I wake up with
You're the one that I won't break up with
You're the one I tend to stray from
The one I get my night and day from
You're the one...
You're the one I've got my eye on
You're the one I get my high on
You're the one that I'm spoken for
The same one that I'm chokin' for
You're the one...
I'm sorry for the things that I haven't said,
For the thoughts I leave in your head
And should our light ever turn to red,
I'll be sorry
For the things I haven't said
'Cause you're the one that I rest with
You're the one that I'm blessed with
