More Song Lyrics 5

Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I guess I'd better go now
I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share their hollow glow
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise
Still one place to go
Still one place to go
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves

Black dog up and sniffed his plate a-steamin' on the stove
Kids ain't seen you home all day, you're a gentleman born to roam
Black dog don't believe in sin
Think of where the black dog's been
Think of where he's been today

It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove
The light in your eyes that makes me warm

There's light in your eyes I used to see
There's a place in your heart where I used to be
Was I wrong to assume you were waiting for me
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that burning for me

Now my course is plain as day
Running bold across to play
Both ends burning with a strange desire
That feeds the fire in my soul tonight
I will dance the night away
Living only for today
Both ends burning while you're counting sheep
Hell, who can sleep in this heat this night?
Tell me will I ever learn?

How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?

To everything (turn turn turn)
There is a season(turn turn turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

It's the time of the season
When love runs high
In this time, give it to me easy
And let me try with pleasured hands

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd want to do
Is to save every day til eternity passes away
Just be there with you...

And the seasons they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up,and down
We,re captive on the carousel of time

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies,
Just hold me close, don't patronise
Don't patronise me

My church offers no absolutes
She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom"
The only Heaven I'll be sent to,
Is when I'm alone with you.

Who would be the fool to maybe
Trick a kiss in time?
Who am I to say that's crazy?
Love will make you blind
In the church of the poison mind

Day after day, alone on a hill
The man with the foolish grin
Is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning round

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building

Just running scared each place we go
So afraid that he might show
Yeah, running scared, what would I do?
If he came back and wanted you
Just running scared, feeling low
Running scared, you love him so
Just running scared, afraid to lose
If he came back which one would you choose
Then all at once he was standing there
So sure of himself, his head in the air
My heart was breaking, which one would it be
You turned around and walked away with me

I love the sound of breaking glass
Especially when I'm lonely
I need the noises of destruction
When's there's nothing new

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Tender nights before they fly
send falling stars that seem to cry
Your baby doesn’t love you anymore
It,s over

All of her days have gone soft and cloudy
All of her dreams have gone dry
All of her nights have gone sad and shady
She's getting ready to fly

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

Maybe he's lazy, maybe he's slow,
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I know,
Can't help lovin' that man of mine!

Love this Tune

So do I, Nanatuesday2, my mum used to sing it when I was little and now I sing it! And I didn't mean to post that verse, I meant to post the one before, which fits the thread better.

Fish got to swim, birds got to fly
I got to love one man till I die
Can't help lovin' that man of mine.

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
