Leave it on
03:32
|

well you write it all out and you check through it twice, does it sound as it should? is everything nice?
but now you're walking alone, through streets late at night, and you look like a doll, with blood in your eyes
and you feel yourself sinking, but its not over yet, and you cannot stop thinking about the words that he said
he said put it all down, take it all off, well its easy for him, no he don't give a fuck
but you do
yeah you do
and you'll leave it on
now you lay your head down, on a bed made of silk, and you hope that he might, yeah you pray that he will
your sleeping alone, he's not coming tonight, you're a porcelain doll, tucked in nice and tight
and you feel yourself sinking, but its not over yet, and you cannot stop thinking about the words that he said
he said put it all down, take it all off, well its easy for him, no he don't give a fuck
but you do
yeah you do
and you'll leave it on
but you can't, and you won't, yeah you'll leave it on

On a Monday afternoon, on a train I noticed you,
well your jumper was striped and your jeans were blue
for a second you had me thinking we could
but I wouldn't lie
but I wouldn't lie
I saw you sitting, in front of your TV screen
I know you want to be in the TV screen
I wouldn't lie to you, I couldn't lie to you
I wouldn't lie
Seems I'm in trouble, again
Seems i'm in trouble

1,2,3,4
Well I named my baby Caltex, because he was born on the borderline
he had a birth mark like a hunting knife in 1969 oh lord
back then I was a mechanic I drank whiskey and beat cars
he'd sit in the carport and he'd hand me the parts, oh yes he would
well he never did like the ladies and he learned to play slide guitar
he'd sit in the dirt real late and sing to the starts, oh yes he would
well now Caltex was such a quiet kid till he got himself that gun
it was a gift from his mother for his 22nd birthday in 1981, oh lord
since then he walked with bigger steps and with a fire in his eye
he drank like his dad in rock and roll bars just lookin' for guys to fight, c'mon
I said, my poor baby wound up dead
I said, my poor baby wound up dead
I said, my poor baby wound up dead, now
I said, my poor baby wound up dead
god bless his soul now, god bless his soul now
my baby, my poor baby, god bless his soul now c'mon
god bless his soul now, god bless his soul, my baby
my baby, my poor baby, god bless his soul

She says she's leaving
I say you know you're gonna hurt two people
uh, she says its alright
I say you know we'll never never ever be the same
we can't be friends
I get Billy, he was my friend first and he's my life line
and you can have the rest except for Stacey
when I'm down she is the best she makes me feel alright
I've known her for the longest time
I will take her out on a weekday
and we will go get coffee in the city
and we will talk about love and why you broke my heart
and why depression is addictive
you know we'll never be friends
Well can you tell, by the expression on my face that i'm a wanted man
yeah without me you are nothing, do you understand
I don't care how quickly you move on, I don't care
I've got so much love I need to share
take me out of the cold, the warmth that you gave me is worn
I need some place where I can brood
with my memories of you
I'm still in love with the idea
I'm still in love with the idea
I'm still in love with the idea
I'm still in love with the idea of loving you

Shadow of doubt
04:04
|
|||
I'm waiting for the world to rotate
I'm waiting for the wheel of my fortune to turn around
I'm waiting for the sun to rise the moon will hit the sky the stars will alight
Because I'm surrounded, no shrouded in a shadow of doubt
Father can you forgive me, I have sinned
Jesus keeps paying me out
But it's hard to keep faith and to love when you're shrouded in a shadow of doubt, yes a shadow of doubt
We are waiting for the universe to turn
We're waiting to spin the wheel of fortune 180 degrees
Oh won't you do it for me, because I'm drowning, drowning in my hopes and dreams
