Track Lyrics
Daylight Fading Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
I am waiting for the telephone to tell me I'm alive
Well, I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
It's getting cold in California, I guess I'll be leaving soon
[Chorus]
Daylight fading, come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs of daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
[Verse 2]
She said, "Everybody loves you", she says everybody cares
But all the things I keep inside myself, they vanish in the air
If you tell me that you'll wait for me, I'll say I won't be here
I want to say goodbye to you, goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye to everyone I know
[Chorus]
Daylight fading, come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs of daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
[Chorus]
Daylight fading, come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs of daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
Children in Bloom Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Children in bloom, cooking in the sun
Waiting for a room of our own
Leave my sister alone
She don't deserve this
She is a flower and I am a flower
And we are all alone
[Chorus]
I gotta get out on my own
I gotta get up from this waiting, waiting at home
I gotta get out of this sunlight
It's melting my bones
I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself home
[Verse 2]
All these wasted dreams
Just waiting for the sun to open
To open up my heart to anyone
Bring me some rain
Because I'm dying, I'm dying
And I can't get this damn thing closed again
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Where's the fun house this year?
The fairground's deserted and the skies don't seem as near
But Nicole's my oldest friend
But the altar is empty and she'll never be a little girl again
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I can't find my way home
I can't find my way home
I can't find, I can't find
I can't find, I can't find
I can't find, I can't find my way home
No no no
Another Horsedreamer’s Blues Lyrics
15 ContributorsAnother Horsedreamers’ Blues LyricsMargery's dreaming of the middle of the day
Tiyuri to win, Perfect Dozen to place
Money is the matter that's been on her mind
Time ticks by her, one race at a time
She's trying to be a good girl
And give them what they want
But Margery's dreaming of horses
Looking at a green sky, sun like a red eye
Bright blue horses are the fortune she lives by
She's tired and lonely, scarred and depressed
Her visions of one day go racing the next
She's trying to be a good girl
And give them what they want
But Margery's dreaming of horses
Margie doesn't say anything all the way home
So afraid she'll awake to find she's all alone
Margery's wingspan's all feathers and coke cans
And TV dinners and letters she won't send
And every race night is shot through with sunlight
Trying to hit the big one, one last time tonight
For drunken fathers and stupid mothers and
Boys who can't tell one girl from another
So she takes her pills careful and round
One of these days, she's gonna throw the whole bottle down
She's trying to be a good girl
And give them what they want
But Margery's dreaming of horses
She's trying to be a good girl
And give them what they want
But Margery's dreaming of horses
Monkey Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All dressed up, no place to go
Hey monkey, when you gonna
Show your face around me?
I know all the wrongs and rights
And I just want a little light to fall on me
[Chorus]
Hey monkey, where you been?
This lonely spiral I've been in
Hey monkey, when can we begin?
Hey monkey, where you been?
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm all messed up, that's nothing new
Hey monkey, when you open up your blue eyes
I don't know if I'm wide awake or dreaming
But all I ever need is everything
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Just get the world off your shoulders
And close your pretty blue eyes
Hey monkey, what's life without
An occasional surprise?
[Verse 4]
I got nowhere but home to go
Got Ben Folds on my radio right now
And I'm in trouble for the things I need
Hey monkey, don't you want to be needed too?
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Hey monkey, where you been?
Hey monkey, where you been?
Mercury Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She is trapped inside a month of gray
And they take a little every day
She is a victim of her own responses
Shackled to a heart that wants to settle
And then runs away
[Interlude]
It's a sin to be fading endlessly
Yeah, but she's alright with me
[Verse 2]
She is leaving on a walkaway
She is leaving me in disarray
In the absence of a place to be
She stands there looking back at me
Hesitates, and then turns away
[Bridge]
She'll change so suddenly
She's just like mercury
Yeah, but she's alright with me
[Verse 3]
Keep some sorrow in your hearts and minds
For the things that die before their time
For the restlessly abandoned homes
The tired and weary rambler's bones
And stay beside me where I lie
She's entwined in me, crazy as can be
Yeah, but she's alright with me
She's alright
She's alright with me
She's alright with me
Mmm, she's alright with me
She's alright with me
Walkaways Lyrics
[Verse 1]
"I gotta rush away," she said
I've been to Boston before
Anyway, this change I've been feeling
Doesn't make the rain fall
[Chorus]
No big differences these days
Just the same old walkaways
Someday, I'm going to stay
But not today
