Like an Ambulance

like an ambulance coming right on the dot
like a satellite honing in on the spot
I will be right there when you call upon me

Once Into Winter
02:43
|
|||
|
is it any wonder?
come sun or come rain
now I will never be the same
is it any wonder?
come joy or come pain
tensely hangs your tender name
once before I had met you
these summer months
just passed me by
once into winter, I'll have good reason
to find the love on my own, inside
and now all is lost
to the wind and the rain
oh, my river of love
the thirst did drain
wasted on the fly-over
lost the fire, waived to draw
lost it on the moonlight draw

Brains That Swing
02:26
|

|
I left my heart in New York City
now, I will never love again
I left my heart in New York City
how will I ever be the same?
wishing that I had brains that swing

Left With Nothing
03:01
|
|||
|
beautiful, you are so
very kind,
how I hope to find my
own sun that shines
it will limber up my eyes
daily, my star is fading
waiting,
for you to take me
embrace me
and there we'll only be left with nothing
no weight on me
on the ceiling, all of my dreams
waiting

Shades and Lines
02:47
|
|||
|
it’s all but shades and lines
the vein was torn in two
let it run, let it all hang out
an ocean overdue
a little more straw to you
and I’m subdued
I should not align my laws
and all the while to you
a blaze of nought, a water drop
the way you’re not to know
the way you’re not to know
why you’re born
lion’s share, savory
made a lot of jokes
what it is
I ask of thee
what it is
what it is I want
what it is I want
here all alone

What is Sad?
02:05
|
|||
|
I am sad.
I am sad.
I am sad.
I am sad.
|
||||
7. |
||||
|
looking at the sky above me
I share the sky with thee
what a precious night, so lovely
I share the night with thee
