Hey, you call me up again just to break me like a promise
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here
Because I remember it all too well.
Faded photographs
The feelings all come back
Even now sometimes you feel so near
And I still see your face like it was yesterday
It's strange how the days turned into years
Years of hangin on
To dreams already gone
Years of wishin you were here
After all this time you'd think I wouldn't cry
It's just that I still love you after all these years
Barbara Mandrell
1979 Hit - Years
I'm ACTUALLY related to Barbara - only thru marriages though! She's my 3rd cousin.
Childhood living
Is easy to do
Things that you wanted
Well I bought them for you
Graceless lady
You know who I am
You know I can't let you
Just slide my hands
"I am and always will be the optimist, the hoper of far-flung hope, and the dreamer of improbable dreams."
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
The leader of the band is tired
And his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through
My instrument
And his song is in my soul
My life has been a poor attempt
To imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band.
"I am and always will be the optimist, the hoper of far-flung hope, and the dreamer of improbable dreams."
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet
Now, it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones that you can't get
Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Seven sins of wantonness and
everything that's good is gone
Sell it all for glory from the peers
Silicone priestess scratch the back and
twists the knife to bone
Kick against the pricks and scrape the shins
I'm the enemy in the enemies now
Swallowed the pill
Drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
Scared of my own image
Scared of my own immaturity
Scared of my own ceiling
Scared I'll die of uncertainty
Fear might be the death of me
Fear leads to anxiety
Don’t know what’s inside of me
Scared of my own image
Scared of my own immaturity
Scared of my own ceiling
Scared I'll die of uncertainty
Fear might be the death of me
Fear leads to anxiety
Don’t know what’s inside of me
Temperature is dropping
Temperature is dropping
I'm not sure if I can
See this ever stopping
Shaking hands with the dark parts of my thoughts
You are all that I've got
fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you
Fool me three times, plum the peace signs
Load the chopper, let it rain on you
Every time when I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got the dues in life to pay
I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life
Is books, written pages
Live and learn from fools
And from sages
You know it's true, oh
All these come back to you
"I am and always will be the optimist, the hoper of far-flung hope, and the dreamer of improbable dreams."
It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death
Stand beside one another, 'cause it ain't over yet
I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down
You and I will be the ones that are holding the Crown in the end
When it's over, we can say, "Well done"
But not yet, 'cause it's only begun
So, pick up, and follow me, we're the only ones
To fight this thing, until we've won
Lets drive on and don't look back
It doesn't mean we can't learn from our past
All the things that we mighta done wrong
We could've been doing this all along
Everybody, with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me, myself I got nothing to prove
Where you're from, you might be the one who's running things
Where you can ring anybody's bell and get what you want
You see, it's easy to ignore trouble;
When you're living in a bubble
So, what're you gonna do,
When the world don't orbit around you
So, what're you gonna do,
When nobody wants to fool with you?
I see a colorful future
Where skin don't define any human
And stars are the only thing shooting
Shooting
Ooh, ooh
Mothers who bury their child
How can we sit there and hide
Change comes when all take a stand now
Stand up
Stand up
Martin's speech still echoes in my brain
Every shade was beautifully made
And powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter, we matter all
I matter, you matter, we matter all
Powerful
Powerful
In fear every day, every evening,
He calls her aloud from above,
Carefully watched for a reason,
Painstaking devotion and love,
Surrendered to self preservation,
From others who care for themselves.
A blindness that touches perfection,
But hurts just like anything else.
Isolation, isolation, isolation.
"If you could read my mind, I'm pretty sure you'd be traumatized for life"
I try to make it through my life,
In my way there's you...
I try to make it through these lies
That's all I do
Just don't deny it,
Just don't deny it
And deal with it,
Yeah, deal with it
You tried to break me
You wanna break me
Bit by bit
That's just part of it.
If you were dead or still alive,
I don't care,
I don't care
And all the things you left behind,
I don't care,
I don't care
If I tell you
If I tell you now
Will you keep on
Will you keep on loving me
If I tell you
If I tell you how I feel
Will you keep bringing out the best in me
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you're giving me the sweetest taboo
Too good for me
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt like this before
There's a quiet storm
That is you
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt this hot before
Giving me something that's taboo
(Sometimes I think you're just too good for me)
Well I'm just a hard working corporate slave
My mind should hate what my body does crave
Well I'm just a humble corporate slave
Driving myself into a corporate grave
Every boyfriend is the one
Until otherwise proven
The good are never easy
The easy never good
And loving never happens like you think it really should
Deception and perfection are wonderful traits
One will breed love
The other hate
You'll find me in the lonely hearts
Under 'I'm after a brand new start'
And I don't belong to anyone
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day
And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes, we're lovers, and that is that

It grows like fancy flowers but it grows nowhere

I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane

New day but the same lines
I feel like a victim of the dollar sign
All these years on my own
Fight my fight all alone
Till you came, don't you know
Don't you know
If I tell you now
Will you keep on
Will you keep on loving me
