I watched the sun come up on Portland. I waved goodbye to all my friends. I packed my car and headed to LA. I gave away all my loose ends. . Somebody said you gotta get away.
I was lost inside a daydream. Swimming through the saline. I looked at you and you breathed in. Well that's the way it's always been. . It all comes down to creating time.
Took your car. Drove to Texas. Sorry, honey. But I suspected we were through. And I can't cry anymore. Since I left. Been feelin' better, cause that's.
Carolina. Her tears are falling like the spanish moss. Disappearing. Into beauty found in beauty lost. . So it goes. The summer blooms and fades away.
C'mon, c'mon. C'mon, c'mon c'mon. You lay down with angels. To feel yourself again. You've got everything you need. Under your thick skin. I know where you're going.
I light your cigarettes. I bring you apples from the vine. How quickly you forget. I run the bath and pour the wine. I bring you everything that floats into your mind.
I am strong, I am able. I spill milk on your table. Then I crawl like a baby. Just to see if you save me. . I am sweet, I am ugly. I am mean if you love me.
My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away. But every now and then you come to mind. Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game.
Well, I went to bed in Memphis. And I woke up in Hollywood. I got a quarter in my pocket. And I'd call you if I could. But I don't know why, I gotta fly.
There's a time for love and a time for healin'. Can't go back and undo what's been done. (Done). The word of mouth, time is relivin'. Just how far we've left this kingdom come.
I stood at the door. and watched while you drove away. driving my car,. in the rain, in the dark. Well, every dog seems to have her day.. . I've been in this, alone so long.
I think I met my match again. Passing 'round the candlelight. In the center of this blizzard. You stood and melted all the ice. . Ah, it's only love. Ah, it's only love.
Strange imaginations, children hide your secrets well. Is it not temptation makes you kiss and makes you tell?. There's a traveller on the airwaves and he's pleading for my heart.
I've wept for those who suffer long. But how I weep for those who've gone. In rooms of grief and questioned wrong. But keep on killing. . It's in the soul to feel such things.
There's a time for love and a time for healing. You can't go back and undo what's been done. The word of mouth, time is revealing. Just how far we've let this kingdom come.
(Steve Earle, Sheryl Corw). Take your red dress, leave the hanger. Lose the sadness, use the anger. You might need it 'fore you get there. . [Chorus].
Living my life in a slow hell. Different girl every night at the hotel. I ain't seen the sunshine in three damn days. Been fueling up on cocaine and whiskey.
Come to me now. And lay your hands over me. Even if it's a lie, say it will be alright. And I shall believe. . I'm broken in two. And I know you're on to me.
Strange imaginations, children hide your secrets well. Is it not temptation makes you kiss and makes you tell?. There's a traveller on the airwaves and he's pleading for my heart.
(Chuck Jones/Steve Seskin). . Look at me, eighteen and tanned,. Behind the wheel of my old van,. "Hotel California" turned up loud,. No air-conditioning, windows down..
