One day you're happy the next day you're blue. You feel like the whole world's comin' right down on you. There ain't nothin' wrong but then there ain't nothin' right.
Stumblin' down the road I gets to thinkin' as I leave her. I've left so many times before. That old North wind's a-blowin' circles round my feet. What is this sorrow ever for?.
Little girl playin' with the moonlight. Shine it on me, shine it on me. There's a cloud over my light and its troubling me, troubling me. Such a world, such an invitation.
Oh the moon hangs down. Like some old evening gown. Forgotten by some lovely southern maiden. . Oh the stars are her tears. And the sky a skin of years.
The fallen angel shivers underneath the August moon. The lady of the house goes up in ashes. He crawled out through the future but the past came back too soon.
Rose puts on her stockings and she lights a cigarette.. Holds her tired face up to the mirror.. She sees a younger woman there she thought she would forget,.
Well I wandered in. To the house of mirrors. With a camera and an old shotgun. I was taking some pictures. Of me and my fears. And exploding them one by one.
Mama's in the bathroom. Waitin' to be saved. Papa's in the bedroom. Just diggin' up his grave. . Brother's in the kitchen. Playin' with a knife. Sister's in the attic.
I am the west wind.. I am the sea gull.. I dance on the waves,. As they break on the shore line.. . The moon is my sorrow.. The moon is my lantern.. I search for you so long,.
You bring out the fool in me. The blind man at the bar. Who whistles for his drink and his cane. And shows everyone his scar. . You're lovely, and you're cruel.
Baby, baby do you love me baby?. Are you thinkin' of me baby, baby?. Maybe baby, say you do!. . Baby, will you be my honey baby?. I ain't got no money baby, baby..
Get your shoes on. Shoe them blues on.. Get that full moon out of your eyes.. You're the river. Girl you live here,. With the sun way up in the sky.. .
Spend my money but love me honey. Break my heart but be my girl. I just want you to be there when I come home. . Drive my new car, smoke my cigar. Buy you diamonds and your pearls.
You been slippin' around a bit. You been sayin' things that just don't fit. . You been handin' me the same old line. About the proper place and the proper time.
Unlock these chains and let me out. I want the love you're talkin' about. I want a job, I wanna care. I want to find you everywhere. . I want a house and a fireplace.
I killed an ant. With my guitar. Underneath romantic Indiana stars. He was a fool. I was so cruel. The power of music is no tool. So I hit him in the head.
Hangin' around the observatory.. We were waitin' to see the moon.. Well we thought that we was all gypsies,. Come to escape these lousy ruins.. . Well that telescope; that mighty eye..
There's a wind inside my soul,. Burnin' secrets in the cold.. My spirit rages.. . And the faces in my field,. Only flesh made out of him.. My body ages..
The driver says it's gettin' late. But I know that he's lyin'. I got me no important dates. My, how time is flyin'. . CHORUS:. Well I keep on, keep on fallin'.
You are the beautiful lover. My Lover. I am the distant shore. So far away. There is so much to uncover. Love's hiding. What is this distance for. What is it for.
