letra de River Of Tears
Its 3 miles to the river
That would carry me away
And 2 miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on Today
Its 4 miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face
And about a half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace
Lord how long do I have to keep on running
Seven hours, Seven days or Seven years
All I know is since youve been gone
feels like Im drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears
Drowning in a river
Feels like I'm drowning
Drowning in a river
In 3 more days, I'll leave this town
And dissapear without a trace
A year from now maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain
But my times run out and I got to go
Got to run away again
Still I catch myself thinking
One day I'll find my way back here
You'll save me from drowning
Drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears
Drowning in a river
Feels like I'm drowning
Drowning in a river
Oh how long must this go on
Drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears

letra de Pilgrim
And how do I choose and where do I draw the line
Between truth and necessary pain?
And how do I know and where do I get my belief
That things will be all right again?

What words do I use to try and explain
To those who've witnessed all my tears?
And what does it mean to know all these things
When love's been wasted all these years,
When love's been wasted all these years.

Standing in the shadows
With my heart right in my hand,
Removed from all the people
Who could never understand.

I was a pilgrim for your love,
A pilgrim for your love.
I was a pilgrim for your love,
A pilgrim for your love.

It's like living in a nightmare,
Like looking in the blackest hole,
Like standing on the edge of nothing,
Completly out of control.

Now where have I been all these years
And how come I just couldn't see?
Like a blind man walking 'round in darkness,
I was a pilgrim for your love,
I was a pilgrim for your love.

letra de Broken Hearted
When the wind blows down this hard,
Many a bond is broken.
See the water lie on the ground
From where the heavens opened.

Lord, how will you get through this night
With your dreams departed?
And who alone will comfort you?
Only the broken hearted.

So you've gone beyond your means,
Every wound is open,
Your best laid plans are out of reach,
And all your fears unspoken.

Chorus

Sweet revenge is spoken then;
In the twilight it is gone.
To living lies with no escape,
Lord, I would rather be alone.

I press my fingers to the wood
To tell you of my dreaming,
To sing you songs from olden times,
To keep the love light gleaming.

'cause there's a place where we can go,
Where we will not be parted.
And who alone will enter there?
Only the broken hearted.

Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.

One ChanceVer letra 5:55

letra de One Chance
Without wishing to cause you any pain,
I got to push on through, babe,
And if I take the chance of seeing you again,
I just don't know what I would do, baby.

And sometimes I think I'm gonna be just fine;
All I got to do is go through it, babe.
Then I hear those voices in the back of my mind,
Telling me over and over and over that I blew it babe.

You had one chance and you blew it.
You may never get another chance.
You had the floor and you knew it.
You can't blame it on your circumstance.

At the risk of causing you a little pain,
I'm going to have to forget you, babe,
'Cause you broke my heart, left it out in the rain
And you'd do the same again if I let you, babe.

I would give anything to hold you in my arms,
But you know I can't do that, baby.
I guess I'll have to live with the choice that I have made
Even though deep down I still suspect that I blew it.

CircusVer letra 4:11

letra de Circus
Little man with his eyes on fire
And his smile so bright
In his hands are the toys you gave
To fill his heart with delight

And in the ring stands a circus clown
Holding up a knife
What you see and what you will hear
Will last you for the rest of your life

And it's sad, so sad
There ain't no easy way round
And it's sad, so sad
All you friends gather round
'Cause the circus left town

Little man with his heart so pure
And his love so fine
Stick with me and I'll ride with you
Till the end of the line

Hold my hand and I'll walk with you
Through the darkest night
And when I smile I'll be thinking of you
And every little thing will be all right

The circus left town, left town
The circus left town, left town

letra de Going Down Slow
I have had my fun if I never get well no more.
I have had my fun if I never get well no more.

All of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.

Please write my mother and tell her the shape I'm in.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape I'm in.

Tell her to pray for me,
Forgive me for my sin,
For all of my sin.

On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.

'Cause all of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.

All of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.

Feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.

letra de Fall Like Rain
Tell me why did I fall in love with you?
Tell me why did I fall in love with you?
Tore me all to pieces, cut me half in two.
Tell me why did I fall in love with you?

Tell me why do my tears fall like rain?
Tell me why do my tears fall like rain?
Tore me all to pieces, nothing else remains.
Tell me why do my tears fall like rain?

Worry, worry, worry;
Worry all day long.
Don't know where I'm going;
Don't know right from wrong.

Tell me why, tell me why.
Tell me why, tell me why.

Fall like rain, fall like rain.
Fall like rain, fall like rain.
Fall like rain, fall like rain.
Fall like rain, fall like rain.

Born In TimeVer letra 4:41

letra de Born In Time
In the lonely night,
In the stardust of a pale moonlight,
I think of you in black and white
When we were made of dreams.

I walked alone through the shaky streets,
Listening to my heart beat
In the record-breaking heat
When we were born in time.

Just when I thought you were gone, you came back
Just when I was ready to receive you.
You were smooth, you were rough,
You were more than enough.
Ah babe, why did I ever leave you
Or believe you?

In the rising curve,
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,
I took you close and got what I deserve
When we were born in time.

Just when I knew who to thank, you went blank
Just as the firelight was gleaming.
You were snow, you were rain,
You were stripes and you were plain.
Oh babe, can it be you've been scheming
Or was I dreaming?

In the hills of mystery,
In the foggy web of destiny,
You're still so deep inside of me
When we were born in time.

letra de Sick And Tired
I'm gonna buy me a parrot, baby,
And teach him how to call my name.
I'm gonna buy me a parrot, baby,
And teach him how to call my name.
Then I won't have to miss you baby
And I won't have you driving me insane.

I was in love with you, baby,
Till the day you brought me down so low.
I was in love with you, baby,
Till the day you brought me down so low.
You had me walking 'round in circles, baby;
I didn't know which way to go.

Oh, I'm so sick and tired baby,
I'm sick and tired of the way you carry on.
Lord, I'm sick and tired, baby,
Sick and tired of the way you carry on.
You can pack up all of your things, baby;
Hit the road, get out of here, be gone.

Now I'm gonna get me a shotgun, baby,
Keep it stashed behind the door.
I'm gonna get me a shotgun, baby,
Keep it stashed behind the bedroom door.
I may have to blow your brains out, baby,
Then you won't bother me no more.

Needs His WomanVer letra 3:45

[X]
letra de Needs His Woman
You left him standing in the pouring rain
There's every chance he'll go insane
And someone comes along
And takes his hand
He must have love
Can't you understand that

He needs his woman
He needs his woman
And he needs his woman
He needs his woman to love

His hands are shaking
And his head hangs down
No peace of mind for him is found
Break his heart
And then you'll set him free
Someone must save him
Just you wait and see, but

He needs his woman
He needs his woman
And he needs his woman
He needs his woman to love

What will it take till
You believe his love is real
Nobody said he had to love you
Now he always will
He'll walk that lonely road again today
The love he gave you, you threw away
When all he wanted was a hand to hold
His lonely world has grown so cold and

He needs his woman
He needs his woman
And he needs his woman
He needs his woman to love

You Were ThereVer letra 5:31

letra de You Were There
We made the distance,
Yeah, we made the day.
You made all the difference
'Cause you found the way.

Without your wisdom
Lord, where would we be
Lost in the wilderness,
Somewhere out at sea.

But you were there
Through the days of wine and madness,
When I'd always put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.

You found the meaning
And helped me to see
Where I was going to
All that I could be.

Without permission
You turned the key.
You climbed the prison wall
Deep inside of me.

You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.

You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.
Let me down.

You were there.
You were there.
You were there.

Inside Of MeVer letra 5:25

letra de Inside Of Me
The point on the water, there's a change in the air
A vibe in the darkness but there's nobody there
I look for the reason but there's nothing to see
Just a hole in my memory where my mind used to be

Tell me why
Can I find no relief in my heart
I reside
In a world that has fallen apart
Out of my mind, baby, show me a sign, baby
Show me a way to get back on time, please
Where do we go, baby, how will I know?
Who holds the key, is it hidden inside of me?

But why should I worry and why do I care
When this road that I walk on is going nowhere
I stand and I study every face in the crowd
See the fear in their eyes, they must be thinking out loud

Tell me why
Can I find no relief in my heart
I reside
In a world that has fallen apart
Out of my mind, baby, show me a sign, baby
Show me a way to get back on time, please
Where do we go, baby, how will I know?
Who holds the key, is it hidden inside of me?

Scratching the surface, it all looks the same
A world full of anger with no one to blame
But who can I turn to? Who holds the key?
And who has the answer? I think it's inside of me

Tell me why
Can I find no relief in my heart
I reside
In a world that has fallen apart
Out of my mind, baby, show me a sign, baby
Show me a way to get back on time, please
Where do we go, baby, how will I know?
Who holds the key, is it hidden inside of me?

Tell me why
Can I find no relief in my heart
I reside
In a world that has fallen apart
Out of my mind, baby, show me a sign, baby
Show me a way to get back on time, please
Where do we go, baby, how will I know?
Who holds the key, is it hidden inside of me?

All things considered it looks as though Utopia were far closer to us than anyone, only fifteen years ago, could have imagined. Then, I projected it six hundred years into the future. Today it seems quite possible that the horror may be upon us within a single century. That is, if we refrain from blowing ourselves to smithereens in the interval. Indeed, unless we choose to decentralize and to use applied science, not as the end to which human beings are to be made the means, but as the means to producing a race of free individuals, we have only two alternatives to choose from: Either a number of national militarized totalitarianisms, having as their root the terror of the atomic bomb and as their consequence the destruction of civilization (or, if the warfare is limited, the perpetuation of militarism); or else one supranational totalitarianism, called into existence by the social chaos resulting from rapid technological progress in general and the atomic revolution in particular, and developing, under the need for efficiency and stability, into the welfare-tyranny of Utopia. You pays your money and you takes your choice
