I won't stand in her way
Spread her wings and she'll fly
You know it's hard to be free
When you slave to get by

This time ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again,
She said she wants to be her own kinda woman now...

I don't care what she says
Ain't no love when your poor
I can't get to my bed
She won't unlock the door.

This time ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again,
She said she wants to be her own kinda woman now...

On my way I roll on
Wipe the dust off my shoes
Greyhound bus run til dawn
Flower child dust my blues
I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again,
When she's checking' in, I'll be checking' out
I'm going to find myself another friend.
She said she wants to be her own kinda woman now...

. . .


It's painful to realize
I've been on the back, I've been hypnotized a while
Troubled by the stack of un-traveled miles
I found out too little. I found out too late –
Cruel Fate

Memories of what went wrong,
Like a meteor returns to home,
Kinda steals away your life, away your song,
I'll sing mine anyway... Sing it.
So called destiny

But you won't let it go
Until you win Miss Universe
And then you won't reap what you sow,
There must be someone to blame, yeah
Cruel fate

If promises could punish you,
If thoughts could do damage to you
You can run but they'll follow you

But you won't let it go
Until you win Miss Universe
And then you won't reap what you sow,
There must be someone to blame,
We all suffer the same,
I found out too late. yeah
Cruel fate

. . .


Diamonds are forever, but people are more like little flowers
Diamonds are forever, but people are more like little flowers
Growing in the crash of the loud traffic noise of desperate western relationships
Past life regressions, romantic depressions, and midnight walks down repeating sunsets
You killed me with the truth of my relationshipwrecked ever since you sunk my battleship
This is the story of the whole world yeah everyone
Where we came from
Trying to get some
Shika dow shika dow dow
Shika dow shika dow shika dow dow...

She took my hand and said to me
"Let me let you in on a secret
"You've already got all the love you're needing
"In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
"You've already got all the love you're needing"

We wanted each other so bad we wanted to possess
We wanted success in the area of undress
We wanted to own; we were so tired of renting
We wanted to attack; we were so tired of defending
Of moving on the motorcycles of life,
Without a seatbelt, without a tail on a kite
Diamonds are forever, but people are more like little flowers
More like September, October, November, December
More like the minutes to the hour

She took my hand and said to me
"Let me let you in on a secret
"You've already got all the love you're needing
"In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
"Already got all the love you need"

I can't get enough, I can't pay enough
Don't mess with my conditional reality
Reward and punishment mentality
Always get the best of me
I wound you, you wound me
I need you, you need me
I want you, yeah, you want me

She took my hand and said to me
"Let me let you in on a secret
"You've already got all the love you're needin'
"In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
"You've already got all the love you're needin'"

Hey yeah,
Already got all the love you needed
In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
You've already got all the love you needed

. . .


You got love in the cashbox baby, now give it to me
You got diamonds on the dresser, bring ‘em on here you see
Didn't your momma tell ya, it's better to give than to receive
I've been steeling your love. Bring it all night long.

Didn't I give you that golden necklace, what about that golden ring
I really do think you're precious but you don't trust me
Didn't your daddy tell ya, it's better to give than to receive,
I've been steeling your love. Bring it all night long.

You got something in the register baby, let's open that sucker up
Jewels on the nightstand, so luxurious
Didn't your brother tell ya, it's better to live than to be dust?
I've been steeling your love. Bring it all night long.

. . .


rappers, troubadours, sneaking in the back door,
crazy fortune teller, drinking on the kitchen floor
all night
racing down Division at a hundred and three
her singing it was rapture, it was ecstasy.
Oh yeah

Madam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of hope
She was the messenger of
Guiding light and lovin inspiration
She could break you down
With sheer imagination
her old man was so cruel and vicious
one day went too far, and lord, he got his
Madam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of hope
Messenger of love

SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON
Makin' love in the setting sun
She's looking at me like I am the one,
wild and free but with nowhere to run
SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON
The Trapped, the broken, the innocent ones
Baby we were over before we'd begun
I'll be running for you till our freedom comes
Freedom come

When she pulled the trigger
I could hear it ring out for miles and miles
from the circus where we grew up
Your head turned to me
and I was caught up in the light
shaken by the sound.
The confession in her eyes
from when we met
And I was sentenced for life
And I know I'd never forget

Making love in the setting sun
You look at me like I am the one
wild and free but with nowhere to run
SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON
Trapped and broken, the innocent ones
Baby we were over before we'd begun
I'll be running for you till our freedom comes

. . .


How can I know that it's real now
How can I know that it's real now

Don't wanna sleep cause you wanna play
Don't wanna talk cause you wanna kiss now
Get this party underway
Sugar shake down to the Earth let's sing now

Sweet soul dancing underway
The system the man can't hijack this now
Let feminine love rule the day
All that woman you can't resist now

Ever since ya pulled me under
You're the only one I'm dreaming of
Yeah you are the seventh wonder
Help me I'm fallin' in...

Take a look around the world today
Can you feel it in the air now
Revolution in the records that play
In the beats that they're shooting through the streets now
Tragic kings have lost their way
Its you and me and your mother that pays
Every soldier's coming on home
And they're playing it through the streets now
Every soldier's coming on home
Yeah, they're blasting it through the streets now

Ever since ya pulled me under
You're the only one I'm dreaming
Yeah you are the seventh wonder
Help me I'm fallin' in...

Lightning strike such a loud hit, shaking up the
disconnect to respect with a sexual switch
Turned on, shined on, showered on, flow: let's avoid a meltdown
Ever since ya pulled me under

Don't wanna sleep cause you wanna play
Don't wanna talk cause you wanna kiss now
Get this party underway
Sugar shake down To the Earth lets sing now

Sweet soul dancing underway
The system the man can't hijack this now
Let feminine love rule the day
All that woman you can't resist now

Ever since ya pulled me under
Take a look around the world today,
In the beats they're playin' in the streets now,
Revolution in the records that play, ever since ya pulled me under....

. . .


I light your world, yes I painted it with sunshine
But all you see is tall gray clouds
You say your freedom is everything. You need time
But all you really want is out
I don't know why you're trying to make it hard now
Put your back up against the wall
Over time I'll forget about your charms
It ain't so hard for me to take the fall

You can't arrange your life so there ain't no pain and everything is fine
I see you hang your head down, can't believe you let yourself unwind
You're always calling on me
Wrap yourself around my shoulders
We make love like perfect strangers
Spill your glass and tell me that you're mine
how easy love decides.

You're acting cold I think you understand I need you
To give affection to keep me warm
I ain't trying to hold you down nor to bleed you
Or give you shelter from the storm.

You can't arrange your life so there ain't no blame and no one's left behind
I see you change your heart now, can't believe you let yourself unwind
I'm always falling for you
Wrap myself around your fingers
We make love like perfect strangers
Spill your glass and tell me that you're mine,
How easy love decides.

. . .


We'll never know the reasons
Things have ended up this way
You had to turn the page
But I'm still writing of my love for you –
On and on,
On and on

Just one kiss and then you knew
Still you left me without a trace
Where are you tonight?
Do you feel me wanting you,
Desire, makes my heart ache,
Makes my heart ache

Empty runway,
Now I know that there's life after you, over you
Spanish highway, driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you

The first time that I fell for you
Your eyes read me the book of your heart
Speaking in recurring dreams,
Visions and mysteries of how,
You are my star

Empty runway,
Now I know that there's life after you, over you
Spanish highway, driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you

Hey now my light is shining on
Every cloud is gone
Hey, everything is singing of your love for me
On and on...

Empty runway,
Now I know that there's life after you, over you
Spanish highway, driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you

. . .


We've waited long for this day to come
For all the midnight lights we've burnt into the morning sun
I can't wait to see your sweet mysteries
The stars, the sun, the universe, the galaxies
Fly home on your silver wings
With a new song for the world to sing
Light this candle, make it right

Yes you can change the world
True love discovers. She stands, and she won't back down
Oh yes you can change the world
There is no other one just
See if you can find blue sky

Gonna chase the dream, gonna set it free
Gonna make it real, gonna make it shine, gonna keep it grooving on
One small stepping stone
Baby we're not alone
Gonna take you further, higher, faster then you're outta sight
You've got my flame in your fire
You've got my twinkle in your eye,
Reaching for the distant light

Yes you can change the world
True love discovers. She stands, and she won't back down
Oh yes you can change the world
There is no other one just
See if you can find blue sky

Don't change too late, hey, yeah yeah
Or Fade away, hey, yeah yeah,
My stars won't wait

Oh yes you can change the world
True love discovers. When she stands and she won't back down.
There is no other one
Believe and you will find blue sky

. . .


While under a silvery moon, a neon flower born of the desert
Love to touch her body of water, flicker in the morning light
While she was still in the mood,
shaken up like a deer in the headlights
Crosscut saw, whiskey and moonshine,
baby don't you spill the wine

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on you're own.

While under a silvery moon, sick and tired of the country and western
Get the El Dorado back on the pavement. Marguerita where'd ya learn to drive?
She said it's all about the rhythm and blues, pompadours, taxi confessions
The kind of speed that'll get you arrested, go on use it baby don't be shy

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on your own

Free at last you're on your own,
Surrender and you're done
Free at last you're on your own
Don't give up you're almost home

While under a silvery moon, Boxcar Wiley's guide to the galaxy
Jack Kerouac's jumping' on ecstasy chugging down the central line
Elvis and the hullabaloo, truck got busted just an hour ‘for midnight
Mississippi mud, the river is too wide...

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on your own

Yeah you're almost gone
Under a silvery moon now shine
Never gonna make it home
Don't give up you are almost home

. . .


Desperate chances and accidental meetings
Spin out your life as your stars collide
And I
I forget your name

It was coming down like
Down like sheets of silver
Streets like wild rivers cry
Lightning, thunder
Flash across the building
Plays on our roof tonight

Sunshine
No it ain't for me
'Twas pouring on the day you came
Now that I'm yours
I finally learned to see
The beautiful rain

Spinnin' out I lost control
Don't turn away. I won't let go

Took our chances as
We were lost and drifting
Without words to say
When the storm comes with
Tales for all our children
How we crashed our cars that day

Sunshine
No it ain't for me
'Twas pouring on the day you came
Now that I'm yours
I finally learned to see
I'm drenched with gladness
Dance with you madly in the
The beautiful rain

. . .


Sugar coating got a sweet tooth
For something between fiction and a cool white lie
Just over my mental break down baby,
need a sugar buzz
yeah a real sugar high

All right
Big brother, rock star, Hell's kitchen
another ex-member of the ex-wives club
So you think you dance and lose your inhibitions?
Once you start with me, well you'll never get enough

Are you addicted to the real thing?
Unadulterated chocolate fudge
Sweet tooth, sugar buzz

Deal or No Deal, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy
Fake fur, trick candle, magic hat
Television, politicians, talking heads, indecision
So for the money that they don't be real
All the heartless

Not the G.M.P. but the G.M.H.
I'm gonna write a letter to the king of talk
Get over here baby, we'll need a little help
to show the world to put the happy glasses on

You got me waiting for your next hit
Three-hundred thousand dollar buzz
Sweet tooth, sugar buzz

I can't go without them very long at all
Cherry sweet talks, and honey-comb cash and checks
Short term, Fast burn
Sweet tooth, sugar buzz
