You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

Well, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Over you, over you
I want you to want me, I need you so badly
I can't think of anything but you
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Over you, over you

 

[downbound123]

Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by

 

[fromtheshwa]

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me all I need to know?
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?
Or will I fall when you let me go?

 

[unassuming]

Once there was a day
We were together all the way
An endless path unbroken
But now there is a time
A torture less sublime
Our souls are locked and frozen
Once we were years ahead, but now those thoughts are dead
Let me go (Let me go)
All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me
Let me go
I walk alone, and yet never say goodbye
Let me go (Let me go)
Change of heart, a change of mind, and heaven fell that night
Let me go

 

[fromtheshwa]

Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home

Sleep, pretty darling
Do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise

 

[kherg007]

Peeling the skin back from my eyes I felt surprised
That the time on the clock was the time I usually retired
To the place where I cleared my head of you
But just for today I think I lie here and dream of you
I've got you under my skin where the rain can't get in
But if the sweat pours out, just shout
I'll try to swim and pull you out

A howling wind that blows the litter as the rain flows
As street lamps pour orange colored shapes, through your windows
A broken soul stares from a pair of watering eyes
Uncertain emotions force an uncertain smile

 

[downbound123]

I've got you under my skin where the rain can't get in

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go
Where it will go
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go

 

[downbound123]

Once there was a way
To get back homeward

Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Home where my thought's escapin'
Home where my music's playin'
Home where my love lies waitin'
Silently for me

 

[fromtheshwa]

You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best
I've been gone for a week
I've been drunk since I left
And these so-called vacations
Will soon be my death
I'm so sick from the drink
I need home for a rest
Take me home...

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you're not alone cuz I'm gonna make this place your home

 

[fromtheshwa]

And I want all the world to know
That your love's all I need
All that I need
And if we're lost
Then we are lost together
Yeah if we're lost
We are lost together

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Lost in love and I don't know much, was I thinking aloud and fell out of touch?

 

[onomatopoeia]

Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for

 

[bluebro69]

Up in the mornin' and out to school
The teacher is teachin' the Golden Rule
American history and practical math
You study 'em hard and hopin' to pass
Workin' your fingers right down to the bone
And the guy behind you won't leave you alone

 

[fromtheshwa]

On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
Said, "Leave this one alone"
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone

Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

 

[unassuming]

Head nurse is Sister Scala
Now she's a Spanish doll
She runs a full body out call massage parlour

 

[fromtheshwa]

So you better go back to your bars, your temples
Your massage parlours

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

 

[unassuming]

There was long ones, tall ones, short ones, brown ones
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
Out of the middle, came a lady
She whispered in my ear
Something crazy
She said...
Spill the wine, take that pearl

 

[fromtheshwa]

Under his nose was a dream come true
Been there all the time and he almost knew
Thoughts of people in misfortune stopped him doing things well
His duty was to use it - left his pearl in the shell

 

[downbound123]

Spill the wine,

Miracles appear in the strangest of places
Fancy me finding you here
The last time I saw you was just out of Houston
Let me sit down and buy you a beer
Your presence is welcome with me and my friend here
'Cause this is a hangout of mine
We come here quite often to listen to music
And to taste yesterday's wine

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine
Agin' with time like yesterday's wine
Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine
We're agin' with time like yesterday's wine

You give the appearance of one widely traveled
But lord, I'll bet you've seen things in your time
Come sit down here with us and tell us your story
If it's true you like yesterday's wine

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine
We're agin' with time like yesterday's wine
Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine
We're agin' with time like yesterday's wine
