SINGING THREAD

I hear the voices when I'm dreamin
I can hear them saaaayyyyy

Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man
It surely means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
 
Winter is here again, oh lord
Haven't been home in a year or more
I hope she holds on a little longer
Sent a letter on a long summer day
Made of silver, not of clay
Ooh, I've been running down this dusty road

Ooh, the wheel in the sky keeps on turning
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turning
 
One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
Wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who will be the lonely one
Wonder who's crying now

So many stormy nights
So many wrongs or rights
Neither could change
Their headstrong waaaayyyyys
And in a lover's rage
They tore another page
The fighting is worth
The love they save
 
I was a born
Six gun in my hand
Behind a gun
I'll make my final stand
That's why they call me

Bad company
And I can't deny
Bad company
Till the day I die
Till the day I die
Till the day I die
 
Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future

Prove yourself
You are the move you make
Take your chances, win or loser

See yourself
You are the steps you take
You and you, and that's the only way

Shake, shake yourself
You're every move you make
So the story goooes!
 
It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line!
Love isn't always on time
Oh oh oh
Hold the liiinnnne
Love isn't always on time
Oh oh ohhh
 
Cold, late night so long ago
When I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
I never seen eyes so blue
You know, I could not run away it seemed
We'd seen each other in a dream
Seemed like he knew me, he looked right through me
Yeeeah

Come on home, girl, he said with a smile
You don't have to love me yet
Let's get high awhile
But try to understand
Try to understand
Try, try, try to understand!
I'm a magic man
 
Fill my eyes with that double vision
No disguise for that double vision
Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me
My double vision gets the best of me
 
Help, I'm steppin into the twilight zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being alone
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I've gone too far?

So you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
So you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone

I'm fallin down a spiral, destination unknown
Double crossed messenger, all alone
Can't get no connection, can't get through
Where are you?
 
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
 
You're not shy, you get around
You wanna fly, don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up, you won't come down
You wanna live, you wanna move to the sound
Got fire in your veins
Burnin hot but you don't feel the pain
Your desire is insane
You can't stop until you do it again
But sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
Maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know, yes I know, how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night
You say it's urgent
So urgent, so oh oh urgent
Just wait and see
How urgent my love can be
It's urgent
 
If only you believe like I believe, baby,
(If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles,
(If only you believed in miracles so would I)
If only you believe like I believe, baby,
(If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles,
(If only you believed in miracles so would I)

I might have to move heaven and earth to prove it to you, baby
(baby)
So we're making love, you feel the power and I feel the power
And there's really nothing we can't do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If we wanted to
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist on the stars, it was so easy.
 
Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
 
Yes I'm coming

Angel from the skyyyy, put his hand in miiinne
I can spread you gifts, for golden present time

I'm going to set you down
I'm going to make it right
I'm going to bring it home
I'll bring you lightning to the natioooooonns!
To the nations
To the natioooooons!
To the nations
 
Wheels I feel them turning
Rubber roll, I smell them burning
Speed is my desire
To quench this thirst it takes me higher
My daring trick is to loop the loop of fire
On my machine filled with fuel
I am the flyerrr!

Here in the morning, takes me, riding high
It's never too much for me, I live and dieeyaaaahhhhh
 
Ride out in midnight alone sword in hand
Through wind and the rain and the sand

Lightning strikes down to the road that he rides
Empty cities fill his eyes
Broken dreams wasting a life

Lightning strikes as he rides away
Will he never return?
Lightning strikes as he walks away
Lonely tears fill his eyes

Do you remember before times turned bad?
The women and children would play
Then came the longships and changed all our lives
For those will I ride
Avenge all the ones who have died
 
Can you hear the voice
Of a thousand years ago
The laughter of the gorgon
A female that brings doom

Don't look her in the eyes
Or you'll turn to stone
Don't let her deceive you
If you sense her don't look ‘round

Or you'll find that she will lead you
And you'll be buried in the ground

You may gaze at her reflection
In still waters of the lake

But don't look at her directly
Or death will be your fate
Beware of her at all times
Her serpents of hypnosis
More evil than the devil
Can kill you with her eyes
 
A local boy kicked me in the butt last week
I just smiled at him and I turned the other cheek
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
'Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in hell

But I ain't never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
An Amish with a tude, you know that's unheard of
I never wear buttons but I got a cool hat
And my homies agree I really look good in black

If you come to visit you'll be bored to tears
We haven't even paid the phone bill in 300 years
But we ain't really quaint so please don't point and stare
We're just technologically impaired
