Gold

woman whatcha do to me?
all i wanna do is see you
now you got your fingers in me and
i do whatever you want me to
put your blood in my veins
i want whatever you've got
we are what they're needing
we've become so untouchable
everyone knows
you've got the gold
fingers down the side of your face
drawing what the future holds
either i'm in the right place
or i'm already dead
everyone knows
you've got the gold
feeling down to the wire where everything's done
are you as inspired as i've become? as i've begun...

Jesabel

jesabel, don't you know that your prince is lonely?
he's been lookin' for you all around like a lost fool
you've been out with your eyes on the coins
making every man feel like he belongs to you
oh your eyes tell the story
lookin' all around for the one with the money and means
breakin' every heart, just the price that you pay for your dreams
it hurts you
i can see right through
but so worth it to you
jesabel, don't you know that the wine is poison?
you're a mighty temptress, but even your time will come
blinded from the one who really loves you
using poetry to catch the one who will end you

Will You Run
03:00
|
|||
sometimes i fear that i'm gonna lose you
the same way i found you
like i never knew you really at all
how many before did you adore?
how many to come will you wanna run to?
every mistake mounts like a debt that i can't pay
for love
like breaking dishes in the kitchen
one at a time
i never meant to hold you back
from what you wanted love to be
to be the one who made you smile
was all i intended...

Last Light Of Summer
02:51
|
|||
i don't wanna change your mind
i don't wanna steer you around
it's your heart, why would i interfere
walking through the halls of the mansion
the endless hollow walls
echo voices of your possibilities
in the last light of summer
you go your way, i'll go mine
in the eyes of another
there is never enough time
if you hear the pleading of my sorrow
and you're feeling restless in the dark
there is no other dream that will comfort
he will come calling to your heart
dressed in many different shapes
and i will never tarry in between...
in the last light of summer
you go your way, i'll go mine
in the eyes of another
there is never enough time

Wagon
02:39
|
|||
where you goin'? where you been?
up my driveway and back down again
there is no sympathy from lips that lie
i see his reflection in your eye
i'll pull this wagon
i'll plow these fields
i'll saddle up a pony
but you've got wheels
all my fortune is planted in the ground
so i'll still be here when you come back around
no man can escape his own heart
he'll never buy his way out of the dark

I Wanna Be Your Man
04:21
|
|||
everything we've been through
all the promises made
doesn't mean a thing dressing up for the masquerade
c'mon darlin' i wanna be your man
let's keep the fire burning
c'mon darlin' i wanna be your man
til the earth stops turning
breathing up against my chest
feel my blood in your veins
doesn't mean a thing if you don't want it in you
c'mon darlin' i wanna be your man
let's keep the fire burning
c'mon darlin' i wanna be your man
til the earth stops turning
all that we burned
to make our love real
is it your concern that i wanna feel what you feel
you really got me good
i don't wanna be without you
but i'll keep this blade in case
i ever need to cut this loose...

Mask
04:52
|
|||
daylight comes out the dark
i'm not surprised that our love is still alive
i'm haunted by that look in your eyes
the flash of steel and i saw stars
sleepy head didn't get a wink last night
thinking of all the things you passed on
but i'm not dead, laying here by your side
laying here all night with a mask on

Honey Take It Easy
03:35
|
|||
i woke up in a bag of snakes
wrapped up in a blanket on the kitchen floor
but i'll do whatever it takes to win your heart
honey take it easy
i just wanna trust you honey
honey take it easy
come on just tell me the truth
walking up and down these dusty streets
feelin' like i got nowhere to go
my whole life flashes underneath my feet

Inferno
05:39
|
|||
you came to me with your heart
and i took you down the road
you asked me to come apart
from everything that i'd known
you make me feel so helpless
you make me want your warm caress
inferno... inferno
into the smoke we go
in the dark between the flesh
there is deepness to be mined
from my childhood i could see you
looking for me the whole time
you make me feel so helpless
you make me want your warm caress
inferno... inferno
into the smoke we go

Smoke
02:54
|
|||
the river has run dry
the water turned to stone
the birds have left the sky
the clouds are all alone
my love became an orphan
in alleyways it roamed
searching through the ashes
searching for a home
i could see you through the smoke
but i could not see your eyes
i could see that you were broken
everybody dies
and i ran with my arms open
and i dropped down on my knees
just give me one more chance
to give you what you need

It's Time
04:25
|
|||
there is so much to save
i hardly know where to start
do you and i do this for love
or do we do it for art
things that you said to me
are only beginning to sting
time is a healer they say
so i guess i'll just head that way
it's time that i say
you are so worth it to me
people will come and go
faces that catch our stare
stories that we'd love to hear
bodies mysterious and fair
i want to grow old with you
find what it's really about
what a man and a woman can do
if they can figure it out
it's time that i say
you are so worth it to me

Stars
03:34
|
|||
in another time, in some other place
we would map the stars just for heaven's sake
i would look at you like you want me to
over coffee dreams, making plans and things
we would never be sorry for doing what we do
this blood in my veins, it runs straight to you
what good is a man without stars to guide him
you would sail my water if you only could
you would touch my face if the stars were right
these things in time might come to light
we would never be sorry for doing what we do
this blood in my veins, it runs straight to you
many years together, many battles fought
all the forgiveness earned, all the lessons learned
did our map lead the way, were the stars aligned
here we are tonight under endless skies....
