Summer is lost now
The frost is closing in
To the cold gospel dollar
The poor man walks in sin
I can't get no entrance
The doors all in rows
I pray into the distance
Let me outta these heavy clothes

I beg
Indian summer I need some return
So hard to get warm now
And so easy to get burned
Down on the pavement the laws are learned
It's so hard to get warm where
It's so easy to get burned

When a sister called up
And said that love had broken down
I said there too much ice around here
To find no solid ground
Well I just squeezed a season
From this paper bag
I pray to the burning tires
Wrap my feet in rags

Begging
Indian summer I need some return
It's so hard to get warm now
And so easy to get burned
Down on the pavement the laws are learned
It's so hard to get warm where
It's so easy to get burned

Now the sky is empty
The street is sweating tears
Communion at the station
For a million grinding gears
Well I'm riding out this century
The harvest engines sing
From the church of mercenaries
To a naked virgin spring

I'm singing
Indian summer I need some return
It's so hard to get warm now
And so easy to get burned
Down on the pavement the laws are learned
It's so hard to get warm where
It's so easy to get burned

Hard to get warm where
It's so easy to get burned

I'm a poor, I'm a rich
I'm a mountain, and a ditch
I'm a dagger, and a shield
I'm impatient, I'm a yield

And I wanna be free
Wind in my hair
Salt on my skin
Sun in the air
I have to feel love
Holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need

I'm the fight and the dance
I am heartbreak and romance
The feather and the stone
I feel crowded and alone

And I wanna be free
Wind in my hair
Salt on my skin
Sun in the air
I have to feel love
Holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need

And every once in a while
I wanna sit back and enjoy the view
I'm feeling my senses
But woman my life has been surrounded by fences
But I found some that I could see through
I could see through

And I wanna be free
Wind in my hair
Salt on my skin
Sun in the air
I have to feel love
Holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need

Everything that you would ever need
Everything that you would ever need

You don't have to be part of the problem
I just need a second chance
I just need a second chance
Instead of leaving me standing in sorrow
I know that you'll understand
I hope then you'll understand
I know that I was wrong
But just don't walk away

[Chorus:]
Oh won't you stay
I need you need you here
When you're with me
All others disappear
I'll follow close
So close I'll almost touch
I need your love
But it never hurt this much

I don't wanna be someone who's searching
Finally met someone
I finally met someone
There's a couple things I'm still learning
Just gotta figure out
But you need someone who knows
I came to you tonight
But now you're just walking away

[Chorus]

Don't get caught up in me feeling off course today
You can take a minute before you go slipping away
I know I took some time but I realized my mistake
You don't have to be part of the problem
I just need a second chance

[Chorus]

I need your lovin' arms at night, but it never hurt this much
You don't have to be part of the problem
I just need a second chance

Sunlight goes down, as you pack up your things
Feelings amount, we can work out the kinks
Your eyes on fire, as you drag him towards the door
Your bags so heavy, leavin marks across the floor

I guess, I win, Goodbye Again
Go spread the news, Oh and don't forget your shoes
It's going to be a long walk
And you know what you could lose
Oh, when you've got mountains to move

I suppose you cant leave the mark of all your saints
You aim too high, and I'm just trying to keep it straight
Worse times are coming and I don't have to tell you,
Times are already hard,
Good luck out there getting where you think you're heading for

I guess, I win, Goodbye Again
Go spread the news,
Oh and don't forget your shoes
It's going to be a long walk
And you know what you could lose
Oh, when you've got mountains to move

And oh, once I was a fool
Who would brush all my fears aside
There was nothing, I wouldn't do
But now, I really seen the world on the surface
Just, doesn't show you what it hides

Oh, no, no

I guess, I win, Goodbye Again
Go spread the news,
Oh and don't forget your shoes
Cuz it's going to be a long walk
And you know what you could lose
Oh, and when you've got mountains

Fool you made the girl fall in love
You said those beautiful things
She thought you spoke things you mean

Caress her skin like it's glass
She hears your voice making plans
And she just breaks in your hands

You don't wanna see somebody beg
As you feel her heart surrender you begin to fall
How do you say that something's through
When it never even started, at least not for you

She's dreaming back on the past
Every opinion agreed
Doesn't know what to believe

It must have been for a cause
Our lives have so many doors
Don't think about him anymore

But it was the kiss, it took me away
It's like he knew that I am fragile
He handled me like glass

And knowing this I know that he'll get his
But I don't want the man to suffer
Not the way I am

'Cause deep down I know that he's glass too
And it really doesn't matter until it's happenin' to you
Everybody breaks, everybody breaks sometimes, sometimes

No matter what happens, I see you on the other side
There's too many distractions, waiting for the perfect time
I know you're alright, by the friends you keep
It'll all be fine, depend on me

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh lover be strong while I'm gone
And if you feel like falling, just hold on
Because everybody knows what this all we had
Everybody wants and they want it bad
Oh, oh, oh lover be strong while I'm gone

Just under the radar, a thread approach is slipping in
On another stormy morning, another issue could begin
But you heard these lines and these echoings
You ignore them all till your wedding day

[Chorus]

When you look and tell me love, just return
I'll be waiting here for you, and you do

[Chorus]

Lover be strooong [x4]
Ohh

It's so nice to see you
Can we sit and talk for a while?
I have searched forever
I can't imagine anythin' better

Kids up on the stairway
Couples on the sidewalk squares
If I get to your heart soon
I'll call a perfect afternoon

Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake

Checkmate on my shoulder
I'm tired of this win or lose
Well, I'm no knight in shinnin' armor
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

My patience ran away, take me with you
You keep me holdin' on
Nothin's understood, you're so confusin'
Tell it to me straight

Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake
Rush me, but leave time to wake

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

Say it by mine,
Carry waves of light.
Caught in time,
Waitin' on the light.

Then the winds, they go by
Faster than fireflies.

Hold my hand,
Take my life.

[Chorus:]
Waterfall,
Waterfall,
Waterfall,
Waterfall, you're beautiful.

Live by me,
Stand next to me.

Your lovely,
Let nobody else see.
And the tide is callin'
Shadows slowly fallin'.

Waterfall, lovin me.

[Chorus]

All the terrible things I used to say,
I'd like to throw them all away.
Tell me your story
All about the sin,
I want to get to know you again.

[Chorus]

Beautiful, you're beautiful, beautiful...[repeated]

Waterfall...

You're beautiful.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful....[repeated 3x]

Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize

Whoa it was easier before I loved
Before this heart was turned to stone
Before this blood was stirred and blood was spilled
No one was ever meant to be alone

Why do the birds sing
What do they call that thing
Why do the bombs boom
We're running out of living room

Our needs getting needier and needier
More lies are told until they're truth
Until the messages are massacred
Old men get all their killing done with youth

Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize

All these wooden houses
Light themselves on fire in turn
Oh but someday there will be nothing left to burn
Oh someday there will be nothing left to burn

Whoa
Whoa
Someday someday someday someday

I wake up, in the middle of the night, from a dream, that is
troubling me
The affair has been a mission of two, and if it doesn't hurt me,
it'll have to hurt you.
So I sweat, and I toss and turn, I can't relax, is this a
heart-attack?
What is true, that only two things exist, and I have
difficulties, getting mad over this.
You know why! You know why!

Chorus:
What you want, what you need, ain't ever the same
All's fair when you're out there playing the game
You gonna hear, there are better places under the sun
Someone told me that gold, is knowing love

So I drive, down a line on the road with a heart that's been
torn from the socket
There you were, the bottle you did bring, I only needed a sip,
but I drank the whole thing
You know why! Because!

Chorus:
What you want, what you need, ain't ever the same
All's fair when you're out there playing the game
You gonna hear, there are better places under the sun
Someone told me that gold, is knowing love

ooh you can do what you want to and you will see
You will feel, love is real
Time will tell, it always does.

Out-chorus: What you want, what you need, ain't ever the same
All's fair when you're out there playing the game
You gonna hear that there are better places under the sun
Someone told me that gold, is knowing love

What you want, what you need, ain't ever the same
All's fair when you're out there playing the game
You gonna hear that there are better places under the sun
Someone told me that gold, is knowing love...

What you want, what you need, baby...
What you want, baby, what you need...
