my favorite words by the one and only

  • And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way that we wanted to be. And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you. And that you were for me. And then we long to dance the night away. Turned to each other, saying "I love you, baby I love you." Oh the way that young lovers do, lovers do..
  • I held her with her looking down. And I kissed her, with the snow falling down. In the street light. It was a sweet light. And the way that young.. Oh, the way that young lovers.. Oh the way that young.. that young lovers.. That young lovers do.
  • Don't try to blow out the sun for me baby. I'm not hoping for what I know can't be. All that I ask is for your smile each day. And I'll give you love, yes I will never go away.
  • She is free. A shadow crossing the sky. Free from hope and this misery. She's beautiful, so beauhttp://listography.com/haunted#tiful away from me.
  • When you wake up in the mornin' and look inside your mirror. You know I won't be next to you, no, I won't be near. I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear. As someone who has had you on his mind.
  • Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat. An' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at. Or maybe it's the weather or something like that. But mama, you been on my mind.
  • Nobody feels any pain. Tonight as I stand inside the rain. Ev'rybody knows. That baby's got new clothes. But lately I see her ribbons and her bows. Have fallen from her curls. She takes just like a woman, yes, she does. She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does. And she aches just like a woman. But she breaks just like a little girl.
  • Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past. I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast. If she's passin' back this way, I'm not that hard to find. Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
  • If you get close to her, kiss her once for me. I always have respected her for busting out and gettin' free. Oh, whatever makes her happy, I won't stand in the way. Though the bitter taste still lingers on from the night I tried to make her stay.
  • We had a falling-out, like lovers often will. And to think of how she left that night, it still brings me a chill. And though our separation, it pierced me to the heart. She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
  • Her love is a rose, pale and dying. Dropping her petals in land unknown. All full of wine, the world before her, was sober with no place to go.
  • Remember her hair as it shone in the sun, the smell of the bed when I knew what she'd done. Tell myself over and over you won't ever need her again.
  • No more that all time thrill. For you've been through the mill. And never a new love will be the same.
  • The road gets rougher. It's lonelier and tougher. With hope you burn up. Tomorrow he may turn up. There's just no let up the live-long night and day.
  • Mother dear, the world's gone cold. No one cares about love anymore. What will you say. When you see my face?
  • My heart can't take this anymore. What will you say. When you see my face? When you see my, see my face..
  • Ghost calls to visit. With my keys in his pocket. Kisses in my mouth with his. Eyes hanging out of his sockets. My memories crumble. Under still resistance. I was torn out like pages. From the book of existence
  • This is no song for the dislocated. The one you loved but it turned to be hated. Because the lies of the spirit possessed you. Because the eyes of your lover resist you. Listen now, you keep your aim steady. As your temple turns to kiss the pistol. Fate is going to find your love. In a glass of champagne
  • Long time gone. I run to my hide out. There ain't a star born that brightens. More than you, you always should have known, I'll illuminate your question. Long time ago I'd died and gone. What has brought the question? Time has brought the question.
  • I wanna be your lover, Lipstick my name across your mirror. Blood red with flaked gunshot glitter. And be one with all you disowned in your young life. You paranoia politician diva. You paranoia politician diva.
  • How many times, have you heard someone say, if I had money, I would do things my way. But little they know, that it's so hard to find. One rich man in ten, with a satisfied mind.
  • Money can't buy back, all your youth when your old. A friend when your lonely, or peace to your soul. The wealthiest person, is a pauper at times. Compared to the man, with a satisfied mind.
  • When my life is over, and my time has run out, my friends and my lovers, I will leave, theres no doubt. But one things for certain, when it comes my time. I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind

  • Star crossed child's love on the bands of wedding gold. Silver studs of promise hide in the red crushed velvet folds. Inaction, intention, like emeralds I stole. My speech of custom gold. I think I ought to know
  • So you think I'm a tough kid? Is that what you heard? Well I like to see some action and it gets into my blood. They call me the trail blazer. Rael. electric razor. I'm a pitcher in the chain gang, we don't believe in pain only as strong. 'Cos we're only as strong, as the weakest link in the chain.
  • You're sitting in your comfort you don't believe I'm real. You cannot buy protection from the way that I feel. Your progressive hypocrites hand out their trash. But it was mine in the first place, so I'll burn it to ash. And I've tasted all the strongest meats, and laid them down in colored sheets.
  • You are soft and young to me. I am the ghost who comes and goes. I'm hoping that I'll catch you in the throws. Of one last look at joy that we've become
  • I'll just sit here and glow. Break out the oldest pictures. Hand your ruined letters out to dry. We had a birthplace in common. And separate beds and lives. And lives, and lives. I know that we could be so happy, baby. If we wanted to be
  • All young lovers know why. Nightmares blind their mind's eye. Your rube is young and handsome. So new to your bedroom floor. You know damn well where you'll go
  • I've loved so many times and I've drowned them all. From their coral graves, they rise up when darkness falls. With their bones they'll scratch the window, I hear them call
  • It's in your heart. It's in your art, your beauty. Even in this world of lies. There's purity. You've got innocence. In your eyes. Even in this world of lies
  • I know everybody here wants you. I know everybody here thinks he needs you. I'll be waiting right here just to show you. How our love will blow it all away

  • Don't you see, don't you see? You're just the torch to put the flame to all our guilt and shame. And I'll rise like an ember in your name
  • Love can taste like the wine of the ages, oh babe. And I know they all look so good from a distance. But I tell you I'm the one
  • Their yellow haze and crowds of eyes. Will plug up the mind that moves. Moving with grace the men despise. And women have learned to lose. We'll share our bodies. In disdain for the system
  • I see you take another drag. One more lost soul to raise your flag. The sky is a landfill. I see you take another drag. Let's see you take another drag
  • I feel afraid and I call your name. I love your voice and your dance insane. I hear your words and I know your pain. With your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another. Your eyes to the ground and the world spinning round forever. Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
  • There's no time for hatred, only questions. Where is love, where is happiness, what is life, where is peace?. When will I find the strength to bring me release?

  • Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun. And much too blind to see the damage he's done. Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no one
  • It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder. It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her. It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter. It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
  • Well I feel too young to hold on - And I'm much too old to break free and run. Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage I've done. Sweet lover, you should've come over. Oh, love well I'm waiting for you
  • We walked around 'till the moon got full like a plate. The wind blew an invocation and I fell asleep at the gate. And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother. And I couldn't awake from the nightmare that sucked me in and pulled me under
  • I lost myself on a cool damp night. Gave myself in that misty light. Was hypnotized by a strange delight. Under a lilac tree. I made wine from the lilac tree. Put my heart in its recipe. It makes me see what I want to see and be what I want to be
  • Kiss me, please kiss me. But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation. You know it makes me so angry 'cause I know that in time . I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye
  • This is our last embrace. Must I dream and always see your face. Why can't we overcome this wall. Well, maybe it's just because I didn't know you at all
  • This is our last goodbye. I hate to feel the love between us die. But it's over. Just hear this and then I'll go. You gave me more to live for. More than you'll ever know
  • Precious, precious silver and gold and pearls in oyster's flesh. Drop down we two to serve and pray to love. Born again from the rhythm screaming down from heaven. Ageless, ageless. I'm there in your arms
  • The welts of your scorn, my love, give me more. Send whips of opinion down my back, give me more. Well it's you I've waited my life to see. It's you I've searched so hard for..
