Learn to Love Another
03:04

|
There is no such thing as the happy ever after, and there's no turning back.
There is no such thing as happiness or laughter in the tragic aftermath.
I heard you crying in your sleep last night, drunk and wailing in the pale moonlight and the horrifying noise of your voice carried like a choir.
I dreamt I saw you in an empty hall, as plain and tall as a paper doll, and all that I wanted to do was to set you on fire-
And choke on your smoke, the only smoke I've ever known.
I used to think that you were everything when you were ring-ring-ringing in my head-
and how I couldn't go on living if your love was dead.
But as I grow older and set in my ways I'm not afraid to face a life of strange days.
So I buried your remains in a makeshift grave so I could learn to love another.
Yeah I buried your remains in a makeshift grave so I could learn to love another.
'Cause there's is no such thing as the happy ever after, and there's no turning back.
There is no such thing as happiness or laughter in the tragic aftermath.

End of Sonne
02:09
|
|||
|
I'm tangled up in blue, the colour of the sky, the odour of hair, the flowers on the stairs.
I wrestle with my heat that's here to stay at least until the end of sonne and on and on.
You can find me in the shade, planning my escape, fending off the changes coming over me.
I'm tangled up in dreams the tangled webs we weave and all that we don't see when we are fast asleep.
I wrestle with my heart until long after dark, until the end of sonne and on and on.
You can find me in my grave waiting to be saved praying for salvation and fending off decay.
I'm only skin and bones, I'm only skin and bones, I'm only skin and bones.

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Once when I was young and hung up to dry under a giant sky.
Birds abandoned their nests in the barn and flew off arm and arm to some place warm where it's calm before a storm.
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
The North wind she's blowing in sweet dreams descend from the limb to the land.
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
Leaves fall and we're still in it together and-
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

El Vagabondo

I've been on my own since the day I was born trying to hide my devil horns underneath a crown of thorns-
I've seen earthquakes, hurricanes and lived to tell the story, and the road unfolds accordin to my leaving in the mornin.
I've been here I've been there hell I've been most everywhere, shakin and a movin through my years in pursuit of something dear.
Seen the good the bad the gory and the Lord in all His glory,
and the road unfold accordin to my leavin in the mornin.
I'm in a bind in Carolina I's denied parole today-
Got a wife in West Virginia with a baby on the way-
And I got a girl in Louisiana best mistake I ever made.
I'm a sucker for the pain my pleasure brings.
And if I had to do it all again I wouldn't change a thing.
I've been going it alone since the day that I was born been survivin storm to storm like the scarecrow in the corn-
for all of my chasin' after ravens I'm no better safe than sorry,
and the road unfolds accordin to my leavin in the mornin.
I'm in a bind in Carolina I's denied parole today-
Got a wife in West Virginia with a baby on the way-
And I got a girl in Louisiana best mistake I ever made.
I'm a sucker for the pain my pleasure brings.
And if I had to do it all again I wouldn't change a thing.
I done covered my share of ground east to west and north to south-
Got my lovin on the run I was on the lam and livin hand to mouth.
Yo soy El Vagabondo I'll be heaven bound tomorrow-
If the road unfolds accordin to my leavin in the mornin.
May the road unfold accordin to my leavin in the mornin.

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh. Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh, Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh.
Looking for a slow train heaven bound make a getaway from all my pain.
I been underground such a long time now that the blood run cold in my veins, the blood run cold in my veins.
Oh dear Lord I'm such a heartbreak kid and I never thought I'd turn out this way.
I can feel the warmth of the sun on my face but the blood run cold in my veins, the blood run cold in my veins.
I'm not old enough to feel this roughed up I never thought I'd ever have to live a day without you love-
Leave it to this world to keep kickin' me down tell me sonne things are looking up.
And I wanna give you all my best all the time up until the end of my days-
My fire light burns hot and as bright as a flame but the blood run cold in my veins, the blood run cold in my veins.
I'm not old enough to feel this roughed up I never thought I'd ever have to live a day without you love-
Leave it to this world to keep kickin' me down tell me sonne things are looking up-things are always looking up.
And I wanna give you all my best all the time up until the end of my days. My fire burns hot as the hinges of hell and the blood run cold in my veins. The blood. run. cold. in. my. veins.
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh. Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh, Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh.

Stop Holdin' On

I'm an underachiever. I'm a fearless leader but I'll never be what you need.
So stop holdin on to me- Stop holdin on.
I'm a terrible dancer. Yeah it's true you can ask her.
She don't belong to me. She don't belong.
I understand the reasons you're sad-
Find you in bed. Forever in bed.
I'm an old blue heeler. I'm an eighteen wheeler pickin' up speed.
So stop holdin on to me. Stop holdin on.
I'm a terrible actor. Yeah it's true you can ask her.
She don' t belong to me. She don't belong. She don't belong.
I understand the reasons you're sad-
Find you in bed. Forever in bed.
Don' let it go to your head. And stop holdin on to me. Stop holdin on.
You should stop holdin on.

Turner Valley Girl
03:08

|
I'm leavin the city and her pretty lights-
the cars and the bars and the sleepless nights.
Smoke in my clothes and there's smoke in my eyes, from the fires that burn for my Turner Valley Girl.
Each year's the same it's a drain on me.
So many girls who come apart at the seams.
I live em and love em and then leave em in the streets, 'cause I can't help but yearn for my Turner Valley Girl.
I'm a happy go lucky and ordinary boy.
I'm the boy you choose to avoid. Yeah well I'm through with makin noise- For the sake a makin for the sake a makin noise.
That's why I'm leavin the city and all of her charms.
Gather my ashes in your arms.
Spread some around at the family farm- and put the rest in an urn for my Turner Valley Girl.

Well let's take another, take another take another take another take another one for the road-
We're a long way from home we're a long way from home and just a stone's throw from where we were born.
We're not afraid to get naked 'cause we can give it if they can take it-
and as long as we try our best we will be blessed.
We the dead and the dyin will fight with the heart of a lion-
And All Will Be Well With The World my girl.
Well let's take another take another take another take another take another take another kick at the cat.
We're a long way from camp we're a long way from camp but we will not bury our heads in the sand.
We're not afraid to lose a few braves in order to separate the church and the state, cause as long as we stay our course we'll shake hands with the Lord. We the dead and the dyin will fight with the heart of a lion-
And All Will Be Well With The World my girl.
We the dead and the dyin will fight with the heart of a lion-
And All Will Be Well With The World my girl.

All Along

Our lives are devised of highs and lows.
And here it comes and there it goes.
And while you continue to pursue the wakin' truth.
I open up and close my eager eyes yeah I sleep until I rise.
It's hello to folks we know it's hello and goodbye.
It's good morning rise and shine nice to know you then it's time for goodnight.
And while you continue to pursue the wakin truth-
I open up and close my eager eyes yeah I sleep until I rise.
All we are is all we'll ever be. All we have is all we'll ever need.
And everyday from dusk til dawn the windows are open and the curtains are drawn, and though our love is off and on we're right where we belong-
and we've been here all along.
