foolin' myself
i think i’m going crazy
i might be going blind
but i thought i saw my baby
down here doing time
i’m just foolin' myself
thinking she’s ever gonna change
every since her first breath
she been just a little strange
but hey hey baby
what am i to do
with all the love you maybes
i get from you from you you
i say hey hey baby
what a fool am i

running down another lie
keep me foolin' myself baby
foolin' myself baby
foolin' myself baby
over you
running blind
with you on...

love crashes me
your beauty struck a nerve
through me for a curve
left me breathless
just a little bit helpless
wondering the streets of love
with never enough
and the ghost of you
what can i do
what can i do
love crashes me
sends me spinning
love crashes me
stops my heart beating
love crashes me
come on
come on
walked a mile in these shoes
got me through these blues
long nights of cying
little pieces of me dying
drowning in your sea of love
with never enough
and the ghost of you
what can i do
what can...

stops my heart beating

carry me away
found her in a burned out doorway
dancing to rust never sleeps
singing it’s better to burn out than to fade away
she woke me up saying something about love
and all the reasons we can’t get enough
and then she says
carry me away
carry me away
hold me touch me set me free
and carry me away
carry me away
we were rocking out in my plymouth valiant
rolling to the beat of the stones
she was singing you can’t always get what you want
but i knew sometimes you get want you need
when my love begins to bleed ...

i need you
hello baby i know its been awhile
i thought i’d call just to hear your smile
coming in over the wire
ooh baby my hearts on fire
i need you
i need you
and the things you do
yes its been a long long time
but you’ve always been on my mind
can i come over
ooh like when i was your lover
i need you
i need you
and the things you do
baby i know you’ve got a broken heart
the way he left you crying in the dark
but he’s not me
can’t you see
i need you

crashing my heart
running down the wire with a memory in my hand
(running down the wire)
wishing i had the reason why a good love dies
(good love dies)
caught me thinking about you again
beating down memories with my lies
i’m crashing my heart again baby
at a high speed trap
i’m crashing my heart again baby
not gonna take the rap
for you, for you
staring down along highway with you racing in my head
(staring down along highway)
wishing i’d seen it coming loves little white lies
(loves little white lies)
they caught...

just like love
i remember when love was love
an it rained down from above
washing all over me
setting my heart free
but it’s just like love
to leave you when your down
just like love
to leave without a sound
just like love
to trample you to the ground
just like love
to never be around
it found me when i wasn’t even looking
that thing called love got me believing
takes you by the hand
rolls in the sand
but it’s just like love
to leave you when your down
just like love
to leave without a sound
it’s just like love

no air
there’s a line in the dirt
where she takes my heart
watches me bleed out
she leaves me no doubt
i got no air for breathing
i got no air for living
i got no air for forgiving
the love i lost out there
she dances across the room
smiles at me in my gloom
watches as i fade away
babe don’t leave me this way
i got no air for breathing
i got no air for living
i got no air for forgiving
the love i lost out there
watching me fade away
oh don’t leave me this way
no place is home
falling into the unknown

bye bye baby
my nights are dark and broken
i sleep with one eye open
i can’t remember the last time
i guess i shouldn’t have crossed that line
what can i do about it (nothing)
what can i say about it (nothing)
now that you’ve walked away
i got nothing left to say
but bye bye baby bye bye
no more driving me crazy
bye bye baby bye bye
no more living with maybe
baby bye bye
i took the wrong road last night
long and curvy road it felt so right
i should of known better
than to trust a woman in a low neck sweater
what...

all i need is you
pardon me if i interupt your smile
could you just sit with me awhile
make me feel the way i use to feel
when i couldn't keep my hands off your wheel
come on come on baby
its not like it has to be love
i don’t want to be saved
i don’t want to know what lies above
all i need is you
you and only you
to help me through
all i need is you
pardon me if i lay down here awhile
let my dreams give you a smile
wrap your arms around me
the way it use to be
come on come on baby

lonely in the night
i was standing in the rain
that use to washing away my pain
when i found a new religion
through loves illusion
now it comes and it goes
the things my heart knows
leaves me lonely in the night
lonely in the night
leaves me lonely in the night
lonely in the night
i remember standing in my way
when my heart lead me astray
into the arms of love
i couldn’t get enough
now it comes and it goes
the things my heart knows
leaves me lonely in the night
lonely in the night
leaves me lonely in the night
lonely in the night...

going crazy
where do i go from here
wasting away in this dust bowl
just counting down the days
till they come to collect my soul
i think i saw it coming
but i could help myself
i took another helping
watched it cut me like a knife
i think i’m going crazy (crazy)
i think i’m running blind
everybody calls me lazy
but hey it takes all my time
its my time let me be
my time oh can’t you see
i think i’m going crazy (crazy)
i think about whats on my mind
everybody calls me lazy
but hey it takes all my time

thirty years
once upon a time I met you
angels were whispering in my ear
telling me how our love was true
went dancing across your stratosphere
in the arms of love
angels telling me it’s love love
thirty years into you
It’s true
thirty years into you
baby it’s always been you
i went walking with your heart
down this long long road of love
with every up theres a down trying to tear us apart
with all the angels from above
telling me it’s love love
thirty years into you
It’s love love
thirty years into you
baby it’s love
