I Do Believe It’s Time

Going round in circles in the waters of my mind
And I do believe I do believe it’s time
Round and round and I can’t see what’s behind
Yes I do believe, I do believe it’s time
Yes I do believe, I do believe it’s time

I can’t go around it, oh it’s been all wrong
Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long
I can’t go around It, it’s too high to climb
Yes I do believe, I do believe it’s time

‘Poppin’ eye’s’ and ‘silent cries’ are swimming through my mind
And I’m not sure of what I’m trying to find
I know I’ve gotta jump, I’ve gotta take the leap
Reality I’ll bump from there I’ll fall so deep

I can’t go around it, oh it’s been all wrong
Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long
I can’t go around it, it’s too high to climb
Yes I do believe, I do believe it’s time

Yeah I can’t go around it, oh it’s been all wrong
Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long
I can’t go around it, it’s too high to climb
Yes I do believe, I do believe it’s time

My Soul

You look so pretty in your fine dress
I can’t understand why I’m still a mess
Wow it’s a pity, you’re so sweet
You’re the kind of girl I’d like to meet

You hear me calling out her name
And I start to wonder am I to blame
I can’t live without her, without feeling blue
Even though I’m here with you

Please do take me back to de days we first met
My girl, how things have changed
But my love remains
Why did you carve your name
“In my soul, in my soul”
Why did you carve your name
“In my soul, in my soul”

Then I will come to think of her
There by the fire as we were
With summer wings and blue, blue sky’s
She was the sparkle in my eyes

Please do take me back to de days we first met
My girl, how things have changed
But my love remains
Why did you carve your name
“In my soul, in my soul”
Why did you carve your name
“In my soul, in my soul”

Please do take me back to de days we first met
My girl, how things have changed
But my love remains
Yeah now, O take me back to de days we first met
Come on now how things have changed
But my love remains
did you carve your name in my soul
“In my soul, in my soul”

All I Know

I’m gonna tell her all I know
Till there’s nothing I owe
I ain’t gonna tell her to go, to go, to go

I’m gonna tell her today
So all this aching will go away
I ain’t gonna tell her today, today, today

Please believe me my baby
I love you
And I just don’t want you to know
Cause if I tell you
I know that you will have to go

Ain’t gonna tell her all I know
Ain’t gonna tell her all I know

I’m gonna tell her all I know
I’m gonna tell her so slow
Till there is nothing I owe, So slow, so slow

Please believe me my baby (I said my baby)
I love you (I love you)
And I just don’t want you to know
Cause if I tell you (well yes If I tell you) I know that (yes I just know that) you will have to go

Well now baby I love you (I said my baby)
I love you (I love you)
And I just don’t want you to know (yeah, yeah)
Cause if I tell you (well yes If I tell you) I know that (yes I just know that) you will have to go

This Woman

The night was young like we were, it was lying but for the greater good
That’s what all the liars say but in my heart I felt the warmth, the kind I still feel for her
This woman, this woman
This woman, not mine anymore

The sun couldn’t stop it, but empathy did
My heart froze at night and broke into many pieces around noon, she was the one who picked them up
This woman, this woman
This woman, not mine anymore

Drunk and tired we were still in love
But love had hate on its back, and stormed into the night and later into the morning
She was holding the whip
This woman, this woman
This woman, not mine anymore

It tears up my soul, it eats away my mind
I’d undo it in a blink, back then I’d undo it for a million lifetimes of suffering and pain just to make her smile again
This woman, this woman
This woman not mine anymore

I will be the one who drives you home

If you say that you don’t even like me, know that I’ll be there
And if you say that you don’t even like me I’ll be there to show you anyway

Cause I will be the one who drives you home
Yeah I will be the one who drives you home
Yeah I gotta be the one who drives you home

And if you say that you don’t even love me, I’ll be on my way
And if you say that you don’t even love me, I will love you anyway

Cause I will be the one who drives you home
Yeah I will be the one who drives you home

And you will say that you don’t even want me to be around
That I’m not cool enough for your friends and stuff but I’ll wait in the car till you sit down

Cause I will be the one who drives you home
Yeah I will be the one who drives you home
Yeah I gotta be the one who drives you home
I will be the one who drives you home

Too young To Fold

I thought that I’d be spending all my days painting flowers between sips of Chardonnay
Well I’ve got the drinking down, but that’s the only thing I’ve learned from Claude Monet

I thought that I’d be a novelist one day, go to Cuba smoke cigars like Hemingway
Instead I missed the boat and now I’m watching all my dreams sink in the bay

I don’t know where to begin, with a story untold
Too old to go all in and I’m too young to fold (too young to fold)

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Some of my best friends have second wife’s
And I haven’t even started single life
Instead I’m in my trailer listening to my daddy’s forty-fives

And if in the end I’ll reach the top
I’ll probably be the age of Iggy pop
But then again; I should start right now cant eat or sleep, just start and never stop

I don’t know where to begin, With a story untold
Too old to go all in and I’m too young to fold (too young to fold)

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la (too young to fold)
La la la la la la la (too old to go all in now)

La la la la la la la la (too young to fold)
La la la la la la la (you gotta, you gotta help me)

La la la la la la la la (cause I can’t have it anymore)
La la la la la la la

Come On

Come on! What’s going on?
Wait for the guns to be drawn
And for the black swan

Come on! Tell me what’s wrong,
And what have they done
They’re just on the run

I see it coming up and it hurts in my soul
All this hatred should stop or it will take its toll

Come on! Just speak your mind
and it’s love that you’ll find
cause people are kind

Come on! Just fight the fear
And who brought us here?
The one’s who are near?

Yeah oo..

I see it coming up and it hurts in my soul
All this hatred should stop or it will take its toll
You gotta help them now

Come on!
Come on!
Come on!
Come on!

Let’s live Inside The Rain

Let’s leave tonight and live inside the rain
Tonight we’ll dance without a chance of pain
No heartache to and time won’t be whining away
And pain will lose his way inside the rain

We’ll breath love and all inside the blame
We’ll stroll with peace and laugh with innocence inside the rain
And pools of blue and tears wouldn’t do inside the rain
Tonight your dance will feed the glance inside the rain

Ooooo let’s live inside the rain
Breath with laughter and innocence inside the rain

Ooooo inside the rain
let’s live, live inside the rain

Mississippi blue

Wondering all night, and I’m feeling all down, and I keep on hear her call my name
Then I turn inside like I’m trying to hide but it’s not the same
I almost feel my wounds will heal when I work my life away
To come on down and hear the blues on a Saturday

I ain’t feeling alright in the middle of the night and I don’t know what to do
No place to belong never saw any wrong but I know that I am blue
I’m going down south in the middle of the night I’ll be with you and the Mississippi blue
and the Mississippi blue
That Mississippi blue
That Mississippi blue
Come on down

I know you are like: this white boy here, what’s with the complain?
But what the hell, whatever I do I still feel this pain
I do know that I idealize the pain I’ve never seen
But there is something about the crying when you’re drifting in between

I ain’t feeling alright in the middle of the night and I don’t know what to do
No place to belong, never saw any wrong, but I know that I am blue
Yeah I’m going down south in the middle of the night I’ll be with you and the Mississippi blue

Yeah Mississippi blue
Come on down now
Come on down now
Come on down now
Yeah come on! Come on! Come on! Play play now

I Will Go On

I’m lying here in my bed
don’t see the point, I feel so sad
But so it goes, to that I’ll bow
I guess I will go on now
I guess I will go on now

It’s all in vain, no reason why
and all this pain just makes me cry
But so it goes to that I’ll bow
I guess I will go on now
I guess I will go on now

I know I am still trapped here in this cage today
But I also know that someday I’ll fly away
With the other birds I’ll fly up high
Yes and I know it’s not my time to die

I’m bound here in this cage I know
But soon it opens and then I’ll go
I know it will, to that I’ll bow
I guess I will go on now
I know I will go on now

Hold me close to your mind

What it’s like? I can’t tell
Can’t find the words I wanna yell
A shape, a touch, a sound, a smell
It’s you

I love you, you know I do
I hate to say it although it’s true
I want to get close to your mind

There has clearly been a mistake
I’m in here it seems beyond compare
A yearning for a door won’t appear anymore
I won’t go anywhere

So hold me close to your mind
Hold me close to your mind

And all of this will go away
It already hurts for me to say
I wanna stay close to your mind

There has clearly been a mistake
I’m in here it seems beyond compare
A yearning for a door won’t appear anymore
I won’t go anywhere

So hold me close to your mind
Hold me close to your mind

And So Away We Go

Since last night I’m a changed man
You’re on the train I know
Trying to leave the war that I began
And so away we go

Well I sat there frozen
in my hands my mind and soul
Both had holes that I had chosen
And so away we go
And I can wait for it cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

And I can wait for it cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

Well the hits seemed to numb me, we both were high from low
And the rush had overcome me
And so away we go

And now that you’re leaving
and time will start to sew
I won’t forget what started that evening
And so away we go

And I can wait for it
cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

Yeah I can wait for it
cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

Well the guilt will stay down and it will feed too
And I’ll be in my mind cause I will need you
And so away…

And I can wait for it
cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

Yeah I can wait for it
cause I’m gonna pay for it
And so away we will go

Listen up now, yeah I tried and tried I tried to hide
All the things I knew inside and so away we go
And It’s all so knew that me and you just being together would feel so true, now so away we go

Na na na na na
Na na na na na na na…

I Do Believe It’s Time

Going round in circles in the waters of my mind

And I do believe I do believe it’s time

Round and round and I can’t see what’s behind

Yes I do believe I do believe it’s time
Yes I do believe I do believe it’s time

I can’t go around it oh it’s been all wrong

Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long

I can’t go around it it’s to high to climb

Yes I do believe I do believe it’s time

‘Poppin’ eye’s’ and ‘silent cries’ are swimming through my mind

And I’m not sure of what I’m trying to find

I know I’ve gotta jump I’ve gotta take the leap

Reality I’ll bump from there I’ll fall so deep

I can’t go around it oh it’s been all wrong

Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long

I can’t go around it it’s to high to climb

Yes I do believe I do believe it’s time

Yeah I can’t go around it oh it’s been all wrong

Well the pile of why’s is kissing skies to long

I can’t go around it it’s to high to climb

Yes I do believe I do believe it’s time

Don’t think twice it’s alright

Well it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
Ifin’ you don’t know by now
An’ it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It’ll never do some how
When your rooster crows at the break a dawn
Look out your window and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m trav’lin’ on
Don’t think twice, it’s all right

And it ain’t no use in a-turnin’ on your light, babe
The light I never knowed
An’ it ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe
I’m on the dark side of the road
But I wish there was somethin’ you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin’ anyway
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

No it ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
Like you never done before
And it ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
I can’t hear ya any more
I’m a-thinkin’ and a-wond’rin’ wallkin’ way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I am told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

So long honey babe
Where I’m bound, I can’t tell
Goodbye is too good a word, babe
So I just say fare thee well
I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Highway 29

I slipped on her shoe, she was a perfect size seven
I said “There’s no smokin’ in the store ma’am.”
She crossed her legs and then
We made some small talk that’s where it should have stopped
She slipped me her number, I put it in my pocket
My hand slipped up her skirt, everything slipped my mind
In that little roadhouse
On Highway 29

It was a small town bank it was a mess
Well I had a gun you know the rest
Money on the floorboards, shirt was covered in blood
And she was cryin’, her and me we headed south
On Highway 29

In a little desert motel the air was hot and clean
I slept the sleep of the dead, I didn’t dream
I woke in the morning, washed my face in the sink
We headed into the Sierra Madres ‘cross the border line
The winter sun shot through the black trees
I told myself it was all something in her
But as we drove I knew it was something in me
Something that’d been comin’ for a long long time
And something that was here with me now
On Highway 29

The road was filled with broken glass and gasoline
She wasn’t sayin’ nothin’, it was just a dream
The wind come silent through the windshield
All I could see was snow, sky and pines
I closed my eyes and I was runnin’
I was runnin’ then I was flyin’

Father & Son

It’s not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy
You’re still young, that’s your fault,
There’s so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

I was once like you are now, and I know that it’s not easy,
To be calm when you’ve found something going on
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you’ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not

How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again
It’s always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

It’s not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly
You’re still young, that’s your fault,
There’s so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it
If they were right, I’d agree, but it’s them you know not me
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

I Hope That I Don’t Fall in Love with You

Well I hope that I don’t fall in love with you
‘Cause falling in love just makes me blue
Well the music plays and you display
Your heart for me to see
I had a beer and now I hear you
Calling out for me
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you

Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown
Take that frown and break it
Before the evening’s gone away
I think that we could make it
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you

Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don’t understand
Well I turn around to look at you
You light a cigarette
I wish I had the guts to bum one
But we’ve never met
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you

I can see that you are lonesome just like me
And it being late, you’d like some some company
Well I turn around to look at you
And you look back at me
The guy you’re with he’s up and split
The chair next to you’s free
And I hope that you don’t fall in love with me

Now it’s closing time, the music’s fading out
Last call for drinks, I’ll have another stout
Well I turn around to look at you
You’re nowhere to be found
I search the place for your lost face
Guess I’ll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you

Suzanne

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night forever
And you know that she’s half-crazy but that’s why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her
Then he gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer that you’ve always been her lover

And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you’ve touched her perfect body with your mind

And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him
He said all men will be sailors then until the sea shall free them
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

And you want to travel with him, and you want to travel blind
And you think you maybe you’ll trust him
For he’s touched your perfect body with her mind

Now, Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river
She’s wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor
And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love and they wil lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds her mirror

And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she’s touched your perfect body with her mind

The Boxer

I am just a poor boy
Though my story’s seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles
Such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
Only they would know

Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie

Asking only workman’s wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores
On Seventh Avenue
I do declare
There were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there
Le le le le le le le

Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie

Then I’m laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters
Aren’t bleeding me
Leading me
Going home

In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of every glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
“I am leaving, I am leaving”
But the fighter still remains

Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie

A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall

Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I’ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I’ve walked and I’ve crawled on six crooked highways
I’ve stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
I’ve been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
I’ve been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, and it’s a hard
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin’
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin’
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin’
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin’
Heard ten thousand whisperin’ and nobody listenin’
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin’
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
I met another man who was wounded with hatred
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

Oh, what’ll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what’ll you do now, my darling young one?
I’m a-goin’ back out ’fore the rain starts a-fallin’
I’ll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
Where the executioner’s face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
Where black is the color, where none is the number
And I’ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it
Then I’ll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin’
But I’ll know my song well before I start singin’
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

I walk the line

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine,
I walk the line

I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I’ll admit I’m a fool for you
Because you’re mine,
I walk the line

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right
Because you’re mine,
I walk the line

You’ve got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can’t hide
For you I know I’d even try to turn the tide
Because you’re mine,
I walk the line

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine,
I walk the line

Vincent

Starry, starry night
Paint your pallet blue and grey
Look out on a summer’s day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills in colors on the snowy, linen land

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity, and how you tried to set them free
They would not listen – they did not know how
Perhaps they’ll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue

Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity, and how you tried to set them free
They would not listen – they did not know how
Perhaps they’ll listen now

For they could not love you – but still your love was true
And, when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night, you took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent, this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls with eyes that watch the world and can’t forget

Like the strangers that you’ve met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn, a bloody rose – lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity, and how you tried to set them free
They would not listen – they’re not listening still
Perhaps they never will

Hallelujah

Now I’ve heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don’t even know the name
But if I did—well, really—what’s it to you?
There’s a blaze of light in every word
It doesn’t matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn’t much
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I’ll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah
