you’re all i ever wanted to know, you’re all i ever cared for
i’ll meet you on the train we’ll ride through the tunnels,
i’ll tell you i love you, walking in the street, they’ll have to tie me down
you’re all i ever wanted to know, you’re all i ever cared for
i was a fool in the lost and found, now i’m back on my feet now that you’re back in town. listen! can you hear the sound—of my heartbeat.
i know you need some time (i don’t mind)
i’ll be waiting, i can’t change my mind, i don’t even try
i’m sure your love is worth waiting for
i’ll meet you on the train we’ll ride through the tunnels,
i’ll tell you i love you, walking in the street, 25 feet off the ground

should you find, there’s no answer, you can chalk it up to fate, that’s just the way it goes
and should you find your plans have changed, like everything’s been rearranged, i know it might seem strange that’s just the way it goes
took the plane, drove his car to southern california, then he, flew to the english coast, now he’s somewhere down in mexico
went back up to san Francisco said “it hardly even felt like a trip” and sailed off to florida, cant say he didn’t try to warn ya
you say you’ve heard it all before, but this time it’s gonna be different (told you so), but we’ve been down this road before, and i know you know, that’s just the way it goes
you can run and hide or chase down the dream, go with the flow or try to swim upstream, everybody knows, that’s just the way it goes
took the train on tuesday, then they crossed the border and when they, got to the other side, shopped around, got a little place on the corner,
went back up to west virginia, i think he said he was headed for someplace like oregon or the rio grande nobody’s seen him nobody knows where he’s been
it doesn’t matter if you can think that you’re right, makes no difference, why fight? you’ve got to roll with the punch, that’s just the way it goes
you can punch the clock, talk the talk, study brahms, beethoven and bach, but it still might not rock, that’s just the way it goes
you can think you’ve got the cat by the tail when, believe it or not, sometimes, you might not have a clue, that’s just the way it goes
you can fall, stumble and trip, head first into the bushes, and somehow come out smelling like a rose, that’s just the way it goes

Pamela All the papers say that its all over and here's the score but i don’t think that i don’t read them anymore. And if you should call my name then i’d be over, quarter to four, but i don’t think they’d understand us anymore Pamela. Oh Pamela, oh Pamela. In this great big world full of good intentions, mine come cheap, but i don't mean to say i never loved you, i remember. And if you could call what we had a first encounter, then i'd be glad but i never thought you'd ever love me i remember Pamela. Oh Pamela, oh Pamela. Do you remember? Or was it all only a dream? Oh Pamela. So if it seems right through like there's no gain, don't cross my name off your list, i'm the one you kissed, i remember. And now everyday i sit and i wait for your call, but i know that you’ll never give me all of your love. i remember Pamela. Oh Pamela, oh Pamela.

Tossed inside your waves of blue i knew i’d lost control what could i do, felt the pull and let go
Crushed into the salty sand i knew your lush green foam your lush would pull me through, caught up in your sway
In the under up above below me under in a green green dream
Thunder crashing in the under i was splashing under in-between the middle thunder in the seam of gravity
Girl I really love you from the bottom to the top
The swivel in your hip won’t let me go
Girl I really love you guess you know that i’ll never stop
The secret in your eyes i need to know
Crashed into your open arms were warm splashing free washing over me
Felt the pull and let go
Crossed between your deep caress i guess i lost track of the time
Swept off in your sway
When the sun went under falling in the wonder of your deep blue dream
Thunder crashing up from under up between the wonder over under thunder under in the seam of gravity
Up from the surf came the mist
From the bottom to top I kissed her
You turn around and whisper
“Darling, just say when”
I was thinking that I had a suggestion
I was thinking of poppin’ the question when I heard you say
“I think you missed a spot, could you start all over again?”

But I Love You Anyway

i still remember
the love we had to hide
the one i’d always thought that
we’d found deep down inside
but every single time
the game you like to play
i know you really love me
but why do you act that way?
i still remember
the love we had to hide
the one i’d always thought that
we’d found deep down inside
but every single time
the game you like to play
i know you really love me
but why do you act that way?
every single time
you feel you have to say
you just can’t seem to help yourself
but why do you act that way?
i don’t know why
i try to understand but
i can’t believe it
i don’t know why
i try to understand but
you can’t—i just don’t why you can’t see
but every single time
the game you like to play
i know you really love me
so why do you act that way?
every single time
you feel you have to say
you just can’t seem to help yourself
but i love you any way

Lost in the Labyrinth
04:35

thought that you’d find fortune
you fought your way inside
now you’re running around in circles
caught like a rat racing
lost in the labyrinth
you have to kill for your freedom
said it was do or die
gave you a gun and a flag to wave
put you on the frontline
lost in the labyrinth
don’t go where he’ll never even know
can’t tell what you find, understand or know
don’t go where he’ll never even know
can’t tell the line from the shadow
storming the fortress
think you’ve found the way inside
but you’re running around in circles
now you’re trapped like an animal
lost in the labyrinth
there’ll be no quarter
and you’ll find out why
when they print your name in the paper
snapped by the camera
lost in the labyrinth
don’t go where he’ll never even know
can’t tell what you find, understand or know
don’t go where he’ll never even know
can’t tell the line from the shadow
in the shadows
hiding in the shadows
in the shadow

i’ve got the love if you’ve got the time
i’ll bring the cigarettes and you bring the wine
meet me after dark up on the hill, where the stars are bright
if we get lucky, they wont blow up the world tonight
they’re shooting rockets, rockets to the moon
bet they find water on Mars pretty soon
yes, we’d like to know if they’re gonna save us
why are they all taking off, they know we’ll never make it
no faulkner, shakespeare, no morrison, no stein
more like Noah’s Ark just like the Bible designed
did they just decide that we’re a waste of their time?
Did they say, ”Let’s set the world on fire!”
What if they, what if they have to get away for a while (just a little while)
will they look down and smile
when all the nuclear bombs go off
cause they’ll be up there orbiting round and round
i’ve got the love, if you’ve got the time
i’ve got the metaphor if you’ve got the rhyme
why they don’t believe in love
they can’t be afraid to fall
what they don’t know might not hurt them
but it might kill us all
they’re shooting rockets, rockets to the moon
bet they find water on Mars pretty soon
yes we’d like to know if we’re going to pay the price
guess they just don’t want to fix this broken paradise

The Hill

Everybody wants to come to the top of the hill, I don't know, its just something. Started a long time ago, you can sit around painting the day. Walk up and see everybody, the sound of the street, you can see over every...
If you come up to the place, you know there will be found, I don't know, it's just something. Some say, nobody knows, you can walk a million miles away. Somewhere the sound of the train pulls away,
what was that you were saying?
I've been on top of the world before.
I've been on top of the world before, but not like this.
Everybody goes to meet by the edge of the town, I don't know, it's just something. Outside in the sun you can listen to the boats float away. Somewhere the sound of the train pulls away, I guess I'll be staying.
I've been on top of the world before.
I've been on top of the world before, but not like this
Look at me now, I'm floating across the floor,
looks like I won't be 'round much anymore, anymore...

Hey hey hey hey
where you gonna go girl
where you gonna go girl
Hey hey hey hey
where you gonna go girl
where you gonna go girl
with your hair flying into the wind
your hand out the window
or setting sall
somewhere off of the coast of italy
who knows what you’ll see
Hey hey hey hey
where you gonna go girl
where you gonna go girl
Hey hey hey hey
where you gonna go girl
where you gonna go girl
i don’t wanna hold you up
i know you’re free
i know words can’t keep you
from flying away from me
saw you waving
flying off like a bird
