CD 2002 - Lyrics

A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
But all the praying just ain't helping
At all 'cause he can't seem to keep
His self out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money
The best way he knows how
Another body laying cold in the gutter, listen to me

Chorus:
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers
And the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way
Or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast

Little precious has a natural obsession
For temptation but he just can't see
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
But he doesn't recognize his own face
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me?

Repeat Chorus

I see a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms
Have come and gone leavin' a trace of not
Good-given ray, is it because my life is ten
Shades of gray, I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

And like His promise is true only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cri endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
Who's to bl a shame

You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim the insane and name his day in time
For fallin' prey to crime, I say the system
Got you victim to your own mind

Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes
Of comin' true, believe in yourself
The rest is up to me and you

Repeat Chorus 2x

Sailing down behind the sun,
Waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again.

Just a toerag on the run.
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.
When I look in my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies.
And as I watch this seedling grow,
Feel my heart start to overflow.

Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That's when I need them,
That's when I need my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.
That's when I need my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

(instrumental)

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears.
I'm like a bridge that was washed away;
My foundations were made of clay.

As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That he was here with me;
I looked into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.
I looked into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

My father's eyes.
My father's eyes.
I looked into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

Knew the signs 
Wasn't right 
I was stupid for a while 
Swept away by you 
And now I feel like a fool 

So confused, my heart's bruised 
Was I ever loved by you 

Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn't see 
We were never meant to be 

Catch myself from despair 
I could drown if I stay here 
Keeping busy every day 
I know I will be OK 

But I was 
So confused, my heart's bruised 
Was I ever loved by you 

Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn't see 
We were never meant to be 

So much hurt, so much pain 
Takes a while to regain what is lost inside 
And I hope that in time, you'll be out of my mind 
And I'll be over you 

But now I'm 
So confused, my heart's bruised 
Was I ever loved by you 

Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn't see 
We were never meant to be 

Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
In my reach, I can see 
There's a life out there for me

You can tell by the way she walks
that she's my girl.
You can tell by the way
she talks she lose the world.
You can see in her eyes
that no one is her change
She's my girl,
my supergirl.

(Refrain)
And then she'd say:
"It's ok, I got lost on the way
but I'm a supergirl
and supergirls don't cry"
And then she'd say:
"It's alright, I got home
late last night
but I'm a supergirl
and supergirls just fly".

And then she'd say
that nothing can go wrong
"When you're in love
what can be wrong?"
And then she'd laugh
the night time into day
pushing her fear
further alone

(Refrain)

And then she'd shout
down the line
tell me she's got no more time
cause she's a supergirl
and supergirls don't cry

And then she'd scream
in my face
tell me to leave,
leave this place
cause she's a supergirl
and supergirls just fly

Yeah she's a supergirl,
a supergirl.
She's so in seeds*
she's burning trees*
She's so in seeds*
he's burning streams*
yeah she's a supergirl
a supergirl
a supergirl
my supergirl

Many times I've been told that I should go
but they dont know
what we got baby
then they not see the love in you
but love i do
and i'm staying right here

ummm sweet sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing
i am sure of
that I'm your lady
always baby
and I love you now and ever

Suga wishes dont change what is real
or how it feels in the bad times
forever he is, he's mine all the time
and we get by with our true love

ummm sweet sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing
i am sure of
that I'm your lady
always baby
and I love you now and ever

ummm sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing
i am sure of
that I'm your lady
always baby
and I love you now and ever

I bet would I ever find, my sweet
just a true love, my sweet
that we come this far together
I bet so I'm here to stay
cos without you baby
I cant go any further

ummm sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing
i am sure of
that I'm your lady
always baby baby
mah mah ever mah mah ever mah mah sweet sweet baby
life is so sweet with you

[macy fades away]

Don't see me from a distance
Don't look at my smile
And think that I don't know
What's under and behind me
I don't want you to look at me
And think
What's in you is in me
What's in me is to help them

I assume the reasons that push us to
Change everything
I would like us to forget about
Their color
So they can be optimistic
Too many views on rave that make them
Desperate
Let's leave the doors wide open
So they can talk about their pain
Then we can give them information
That will bring us all together

Chorus:
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting

Nothing can move us, we should
Be moving
From the ones who practice wicked
Charms
For the son and the stone
Bad to the bone
Man is not evil, even when it's born

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
The tone the skin is living in

(Chorus)

There's a million voices
There's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky & Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

An angel on a Harley
Pulls across to greet a fellow rolling stone
Puts his bike up on it's stand
Leans back and then extends
A scarred and greasy hand...he said

Hells Angel :"How ya doin bro?...where ya been?...where ya goin?"
Then he takes your hand
In some strange Californian handshake
And breaks the bone

Angels Moll :"Have a nice day"

A housewife from Encino
Whose husbend's on the golf course
With his book of rules
Breaks and makes a 'U' and idles back
To take a second look at you
You flex you rod
Fish takes the hook
Sweet vodka and tobacco in her breath
Another number in your little black book

These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking

Oh babe, I must be dreaming
I'm standing on the leading edge
The Eastern seaboard spread before my eyes
"Jump" says Yoko "Oh No!
I'm too scsred and too good looking" I cried
"Go on",she says
"Why don't you give it a try?
Why prolong the agony all men must die"

Do you remember Dick Tracy?
Do you remember Shane?

Joey :"And mother wants you"

Could you see him selling tickets
Where the buzzard circles over

Joey :"Shane"

The body on the plain
Did you understand the music Yoko
Or was it all in vain?

Joey :"Shane"

The bitch said something mystical "Herro"
So I stepped back on the kerb again

These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking

Oh babe, I must be dreaming again

These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait....without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing left to win
And nothing else to lose

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

Chorus:
How Long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat it's all I ever

Verse:
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside

Centuries are what it means to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
To take it on the otherside
Take it on x2

Chorus

Verse:
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the otherside

Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread
I've got to take it on the otherside
To take it on the otherside
Take it on x2

Chorus

Break:
Turn me on take me for a hard hide
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that it's not my friend
I tear it down x2
And then it's born again

Chorus

How long
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

I was walking in the park dreaming of a spark
When I heard the sprinklers whisper,
Shimmer in the haze of summer lawns.
Then I heard the children singing,
They were running through the rainbows
They were singing a song for you
Well it seemed to be a song for you,
The one I wanted to write for you, for you.

Lavenders blue, dilly dilly, lavenders green
When I am King, dilly dilly, you will be Queen
A penny for your thoughts my dear,
A penny for your thoughts my dear,
I.O.U. for your love, I.O.U. for your love.

Lavenders green, dilly dilly, lavenders blue
When you love me, dilly dilly, I will love you
A penny for your thoughts my dear,
A penny for your thoughts my dear,
I.O.U. for your love, I.O.U. for your love
For your love, for your love.
