I will carry a torch for you
The flame will burn forever and strong
And I will light the way for you
When the night is dark and long
And I'll shine
I'll shine like the stars for you
I'll shine like the sun and moon
I'll rise like the wind for you

Well alright!
It's 1969 OK
War across the USA
There's no one here for me and you
Going here with nothing to do

There's nothing here for me and you
Another year with nothing to do, yow!

Gypsy in my blood
And I lie where the myth is sold
Cross my palm with silver
And I'll give you my heart of Gold
Steal away my crystal ball
And bring me in from the cold
And it's fair to say there's no comfort here
No hands t hold and treasure

god, god is a bullet
and religion is a loaded gun
prod, poke, push and pull it
every zealot loco is some mother's son

it's coming down, coming down
it's coming down again

All I ever need is the truth but I all ever want is affection
Masquerade as Jesus Christ and suffer the crucifixion
Lips that speak of love eternal come heal my savaged skin
Cast aside all thought of revenge searching for Nirvana within
And God only knows my belief holds strong
The wisdom comes when the heart suffers long
And I'm shedding tears for Judas a kiss may betray
And I'm on the side of angels on the heels of a dream a ghost to lay

You be the boy and I'll be the girl
I'll be your toy if you will shake my little world
I'll dress and parade for you in your finest satin and lace
I'll drag your razor down my legs and I'll, I'll paint my face

Don't let every little thing drag you under
'Cause life can be so full of joy and wonder

I gave you flowers and you gave me faith
We of minds and hearts that move as one
Chameleon, warrior, gypsy and brave
We turn our eyes to the heart of the rising sun

You and me, we are blood brothers
You and me, we are blood brothers
Blood brother, lay down your life for me

Snow blind, dog tired, snow blind
And barb wired, last chance in the jungle trance
And the fast step of the monkey dance craze
War paint, misty days and dizzy faint

Keeping the faith, spinning turning
Watch the flames of bridges burning

I met her in a bar in Barcelona
She introduced herself, said her name was Mona
She asked me if I'd like a littlе company
Maybe some blow a little ectascy
Of course I'm not the kind that would ever refuse
I'd time to kill and nothing to lose

This is nothing new this is nothing grotesque

Silver and gold and it's growing cold,
Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves,
Shivers down your spine chill you to the bone,
'Cos the mandolin wind is the melody that turns your heart to stone,
The heat of your breath carving shadows in the mist...
Every angel has the wish that she's never been kissed.
A broken dream haunting in your sleep,
And hiding in your smile a secret you must keep: love cuts you deep.

It's just like you, oh, Chelsea Blue
To ask me to fly and then you tether my wings
I always knew, oh, Chelsea Blue
How cold is the blood that flows through your veins?

You patronize and you condescend
You delude yourself and you pretend

Dust is the one, she provides all the fun
And we're all falling down in a heap on the floor
We're falling around, pleading for more

And shell shocked eyes keep shooting their lies
As she lays down the law and the God given line
She lays down the law, we cut it fine

Reason always deserts me
When faced with the promise
Her body makes

And do you think it really hurts me
To watch the pleasure
That she takes from you?

Believe in magic believe in lore legend and myth
And the hand that guides in the cunning if hope in the weaving of dreams
And the lady of the lake takes my hand and leads me
To the holy isle and the fairy rings and the circles of stone
Forever and again

Give me, give me, give me, deliverance
Brother, sister, give me, give me

I'm the father of a bastard child and I'm not talking about my daughter
I feel that my head's on the chopping block, like a lamb being led
Being led to slaughter

I close my eyes but sleep won't come
And now I've got the devil to pay
I'm so sick and tired of this masquerade
How many loaves do you think I can bleed?

Two five zero five zero five
Tonight it feels so good to be alive
Oh boy have you heard the news?
Together we've blown away the blues

And through the empty fallow years
We kept singing and kept the faith
And through it all the hurt and tears

Ever, there's oceans between us, take to the sea, take to the sea
Ever, there's heaven before us, float on the waves, float on the waves
Pale moon lay belief on me, mother, come give me birth
You give me heaven and I'll promise you the earth

Heaven lays on your pillow, sleep in your eyes, sleep in your eyes
Heaven lays in the waiting, steal every moment, hold every breath
Gentle hearts beating as one, dream for the beauty of birth

I see your dancing, laughing, naked
Sweet and pretty face
And the promise, burning brightly
In your crystal-shot eyes

Your savage, and violent flesh,
The cut that bleeds, the kiss that stings
We're shooting up stars and desperate snows

The only meat that will touch these lips of mine is human
hope you consider that animals feel pain the same as we
barbaric slaughter so you can put meat on the table
to feed yourself
I hope you choke yourself to death on the very first bite

We are accountable we are the choices that we make
and there's no reason for cruelty towards those that can't defend

Every time I think of you it's like the last beat of my heart
The memory of leaving you is tearing me apart
No waves, no tears, no backward glance
But I'll always hold you dear
Never regret but I'll never forget
'Cause there's not enough heaven here

Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you

I’ll kiss the sleep from your eyes
I’ll kiss you when the sun goes down
I’ll kiss your until sunrise
I’ll kiss the skin from your lips
And I’ll kiss you on your fingertips
And I’ll kiss you on the back of your neck
And I’ll kiss you behind your ears
And I’ll kiss away your tears and fears

Dressed as seduction, curious and cruel
She steals her way into your trust
And first you want her kiss and then you want her more
And then she'll have you crawling in the dust

Don't speak to me of dignity, don't speak to me of love
Don't talk to me of sanctity, don't talk to me of love
She's hungry as the hunter

A silver moon and a singing breeze
I'm walking out under the stars
I light a cigarette and watch the smoke
As it chases my dreams away

I turn my gaze out to the sea
And watch as the waves come tumbling in
Off in the distance, an angel cries

There's the crime of passion
And the crime of revenge
But the worst crime of all
Is the crime of regret

Speak of the devil
And the devil may speak of you
Why can't we

Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar
Dancing on the light from star to star
Far across the moon beam, I see just who you are
I saw your brown eyes turn and watch the fire

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away

I've sang you songs of candlelight and razor blades
I've sang you songs of being loved and betrayed
I've sang you songs of redemption and righteous crusade
I've sang you songs that made you laugh and made you cry
I've sang the blues and I've sang you lullabies
I've sang you songs of flaming one night stands and long goodbyes
I've sang you songs that rejoice and celebrate
I've sang of love by design and by fate

Foreign tongues in familiar places
Surrender the thrills to the very core
Forever young and blessed with nameless graces

A love that kills and promises more
Ash on the carpet and dust on the mirror
Chasing shadows and the dreaming comes clearer
Gasping for colour, this perfect heart

'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured
I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word

I will carry a torch for you

The flame will burn forever and strong
And I will light the way for you
When the night is dark and long

And I'll shine
I'll shine like the stars for you

Books and covers and part time lovers
Spinning in rooms in cities of rust
I'm stranded, struck out on this line
There's smoke and fire and steel and wire
And glass and spire and dust
One to the floor at dawn with lips tied and drawn
Sleepless nights spent, with angels heaven sent

You feed my addiction so I will depend on you
You ease my affliction and I will ascend with you
my heroine you're the steel that pricks my skin
you are the needle in my vein
the drug that numbs the pain
you are the balm that soothes the wound
the walls of my cocoon

Man seeks the wisdom of woman
Man needs the comfort of her breast
Like a babe in arms, a suckling child
She keeps me safe and warm
In pressing it on test it ? and strong
She stands before me naked and bare
But woman
You are the sweet smile of a mystery to me

Brother of Cain but I'm not Abel
To see the word from the trees
I'm all at sea, come hell and high water
Before I drown, kiss me please

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake me down
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake me down
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake me down

i still remember the very first kiss
and the blood on the sheets
and like the stars that shoot through the night
we crash and burn in the heat.
there's never any shadow if don't have light;
the darkest hour comes before dawn.
and heaven knows the colour you bring to everything
and love will always defeat brawn.

You raise me up when I'm on the floor
You see me through when I'm lonely and scared
And I'm feeling true to the written word
And you're true to me but still I need more
It would tear me apart to feel no one ever cared

For me
To me

The tried and the trusted talk of plans
Master, past and present
Heartless wordplay and dreams of revenge
Living on the edge, the razor edge, living on the razor edge

One day we'll look back at this
And laugh and laugh and we'll die laughing
One day we'll look back at this and laugh

There's a crystal view from my window
And I can see years to come
I live for the burn and the sting of pleasure
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun
I can tear down the walls, storm them barricades
Run to the place where the frightened crawl
Desire lurks beyond good and evil
So dance on the graves where the hammer falls

Never knew how much you can mean to me
Till the moment you saw how untrue I could be
Never meant to cause you sorrow
Never meant to cause you any pain
But with all the best intentions
I can't promise I won't do it again

I don't know what it is that drives me
