Letra
Danger bird, he flies alone And he rides the wind back to his home Although his wings have turned to stone And we used to be so calm Now I think about you all day long 'Cause you've been with another man Here you are and here I am. That's the moment that he cracked long ago in the museum with his friends. The jailbird takes the raps And he finds himself spread-eagled on the tracks But the training that he learned will get him nowhere fast. And I know we should be free But freedom's just a prison to me 'Cause I lied to keep it kind When I left you far behind. With the rain pounding on his back he recalls the moment that he cracked long ago in the museum with his friends. And like those memories the rain keeps pounding down, down, down. And though these wings have turned to stone I can fly fly fly away. Watch me fly above the city Like a shadow on the sky. Fly, fly, fly. - Pardon My Heart3:49
Letra
It's a fallen situation When all eyes are turned in And a love isn't flowing The way it could have been. You brought it all on Oh, but it feels so wrong You brought it all on No, no, no, I don't believe this song You brought it all on. It's a sad communication With little reason to believe When one isn't giving And one pretends to receive. You brought it all on Oh, but it feels so wrong You brought it all on No, no, no, I don't believe this song You brought it all on. Pardon my heart If I showed that I cared But I love you more than moments We have or have not shared. You brought it all on Oh, and it feels so good You brought it all on When love flows the way that it should You brought it all on. It feels so good It feels so good You feel good. - Lookin' For A Love3:17
- Barstool Blues3:02
Letra
If I could hold on to just one thought For long enough to know Why my mind is moving so fast And the conversation is slow. Burn off all the fog And let the sun through to the snow Let me see your face again Before I have to go. I have seen you in the movies And in those magazines at night I saw you on the barstool when You held that glass so tight. And I saw you in my nightmares But I'll see you in my dreams And I might live a thousand years Before I know what that means. Once there was a friend of mine Who died a thousand deaths His life was filled with parasites And countless idle threats. He trusted in a woman And on her he made his bets Once there was a friend of mine Who died a thousand deaths. - Stupid Girl3:13
Letra
You're just a stupid girl You really got a lot to learn Start living again Forget about remembering You're such a stupid girl. You're such a beautiful fish Floppin' on the summer sand Lookin' for the wave you missed When another one is close at hand You're such a stupid girl. You're such a stupid girl. I saw you in Mercedes Benz Practicing self-defense You got it pretty good I guess I couldn't see your eyes You're really stupid, girl. You're such a stupid girl. - Drive Back3:32
Letra
Whatever gets you through the night That's all right with me When it's time to say goodbye I have to make you see You won't know me I won't call you I won't be there To remind you What you told me When I showed you In the morning Let me know you'll Drive back to your old town I wanna wake up with no-one around Drive back to your old town. If somebody Is haunting your mind Look in my eyes Let me hide you From yourself and All your old friends Every good thing Comes to an end. Drive back, drive back, drive back. Drive back to your old town I wanna wake up with no-one around Drive back to your old town. - Cortez The Killer7:29
Letra
He came dancing across the water With his galleons and guns Looking for the new world In that palace in the sun On the shore lay Montezuma With his coca leaves and pearls In his halls he often wandered With the secrets of the worlds And his subjects Gathered 'round him Like the leaves around a tree In their clothes of many colors For the angry gods to see And the women all were beautiful And the men stood Straight and strong They offered life in sacrifice So that others could go on Hate was just a legend And war was never known The people worked together And they lifted many stones And they carried them To the flatlands But they died along the way And they built up With their bare hands What we still can't do today And I know she's living there And she loves me to this day I still can't remember when Or how I lost my way He came dancing across the water Cortez, Cortez What a killer - Through My Sails2:41
Letra
Still glaring from the city lights Into paradise I soared Unable to come down For reasons I'd ignored. Total confusion, Disillusion New things I'm knowin'. I'm standing on the shoreline It's so fine out there Leaving with the wind blowing But love takes care. Know me, know me Show me, show me New things I'm knowin'. Wind blowing through my sails It feels like I'm gone Leaving with the wind blowing Through my sails.
