AUSTIN TUESDAY
(CORWOOD 0823)
OLD TIN ROOF
WINTER BARE TREE
OLD TIN ROOF
SOME BREEZE
AND A TRAIN IN THE DISTANCE
SOME BROWN LEAVES
WALKING IN THE AIR
BROWN GREY HOUSES
WHITE TRIM WINDOWS
I CAN SEE EVERYTHING
THAT I WANT TO SEE
A LONG TIME WENT BY
AND I DIDN’T MOVE
IT SEEMED LIKE MOVING
WAS THE WRONG THING TO DO
THINKING AHH YES
I COULD DO THAT
AS LONG AS I THOUGHT
ONLY ABOUT WHAT I SAW
WINTER BARE TREE
OLD TIN ROOF
THE DOVES
THE DOVES ARE CALLING
AND LIFTING THEIR WINGS
ONE APPROACHES THE OTHER
AND THE OTHER FLIES AWAY
THE LIGHT IS DIMMING
SO EARLY TODAY
THERE WERE SOME THINGS
I DIDN’T WANT TO SEE
ANYWAY
I’D RATHER SAY NOTHING
AND LOOK AT THE MOON
GLOW BEHIND DARK CLOUDS
THE BEGINNING AND THE END
IS TO NOT KNOW TIME
TO SIDE WITH EVERYONE
IS NO ONE
TO BE A CADAVER
IN THE MIDST OF A PARTY
IS WHAT NO ONE WANTS
I’M NOT IN ATTENDANCE
THE FAR AWAY SONG CALLS
I DIDN’T SPEAK
I JUST THOUGHT I DID
THE DOVES ARE CALLING
AND LIFTING THEIR WINGS
THE SPARKLE
AND HERE I STAND
LOOKING DOWN AT THE RAIN
ON THE SIDEWALK
AND THE GUTTERS RUSHING PAST WITH WATER
IT’S A DREAM I’M IN
ONCE AGAIN THE GREY DAWN SEEING SUN
AND ALL LIFE AROUND
SEEMS LIKE A BURDEN
WHY DOES IT SPARKLE IN MY EYE
YES ALONE ALL ALONE AND YET
MAYBE THAT’S NOT THE WAY IT IS
BUT THESE CHANGES
HAVE ME REELING IN THE MORNING
AND JUST A FEW DAYS BEFORE
EVERYTHING WAS SO CLEAR
NO, MY LIFE IS NOT MADE
FOR BEING SIMPLE
EVEN THOUGH I LONG FOR IT TO BE
I’LL TAKE THIS SUN THROUGH THE RAIN CLOUDS
AND MAKE IT MY OWN SOMEHOW
ULTIMATE BET
I’VE GOT SEVEN POUNDS OF HONEY
I’LL HAVE TO STORE IT IN YOUR ROOM
I’VE GOT TOO MUCH HONEY
PLEASE LET ME STORE IT IN YOUR ROOM
AND IF I WANT A LITTLE TASTE
I’LL COME AND SEE YOU SOON
NOW I’M FEELIN’ REAL GOOD AND
I CAN ALMOST…SING IN TUNE
RIDING IN THE CAR, SITTING NEXT TO YOU
LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW
AT ALL THE BRILLIANT HUES
NEVER WONDERING WHERE WE’RE HEADED
CAUSE I’M REALLY RELAXED
MAYBE SOON WE’LL PULL OVER
SO WE CAN….STRETCH OUR BACKS
YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
HOOFING IT THROUGH THIS WORLD
SOME REAL THINGS TO BELIEVE IN
WHILE I’M IN THIS WORLD
YOU’RE A FREE LIVING MAN
HONEY, YOUR SOUL IS UNFURLED
HIKING IN THE WOODS, WALKING BEHIND YOU
HEARING ALL THE BIRDS, AND THE SILENCE TOO
SOMETIMES IT’S YOUR WORDS, OR THE ABSENCE OF THEM
YOU TURN AROUND
IT’S OBVIOUS WE’RE BOTH CLOAKED IN SWEAT
OHH, AND HONEY, THAT’S WHEN I REALIZE
YOU’RE THE ULTIMATE BET
WHEN I THOUGHT
YOU NEVER GOT MY HEAD
YOU ONLY GOT MY HEART
WHEN I THOUGHT TO LEAVE
I BEGAN LOVING YOU
AND WHEN I STARTED LOVING
THE PIECES FELL APART
I TOOK YOU
JUST THE WAY THAT YOU WERE
I KNEW I COULDN’T CHANGE YOU
AND I COULDN’T GO AWAY
SO MY HEAD IS MINE
AND MY HEART BELONGS TO YOU
I HOPE YOU LIKE IT THAT WAY
‘CAUSE YOU’LL NEVER HAVE MY HEAD
BUT YOU’LL ALWAYS HAVE MY HEART
HAPPY GIRL
SHE’S NOT IN CONTROL
OF HER EMOTIONS RIGHT NOW
YOU CAN YELL AT HER
BUT IT DOESN’T MATTER
SHE’S HAPPY ALL THE TIME
I WISH I WAS HER
THAT IS YOU
HAPPY GIRL
YOU CAN YELL AT HER
BUT IT DOESN’T MATTER
SHE’S HAPPY ALL THE TIME
OHH, I WISH I WAS HER
THAT IS YOU
HAPPY GIRL
HAPPY GIRL
HAPPY GIRL
HAPPY GIRL
THE FENCE
THE WAY TO GO IS NOWHERE
NOW AND ALWAYS NOWHERE
WHY HAVE AN OBJECTIVE
WHY THINK OF AN END
IT GOES, THAT IS ALL
AND I GO WITH IT
THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
IS JUST THAT
I FOUND A HOLLOW EMPTY SPACE
AND I CALLED IT HOME
I LIVE IN A VACUUM
I HAVE NO CHOICE
NEVER BE THE CHOICE
EVER AGAIN
THE HOLLOW EMPTY SPACE
CONTAINS ME
I JUMPED OVER THE FENCE
JUST TO SEE THE OTHER SIDE
HUMAN TIME
HE WHISPERS LOVE INTO MY NECK
HE SPEAKS SWEETLY INTO MY EARS
BUT WHEN I OPEN MY EYES
HE ALWAYS DISAPPEARS
I SUCCUMB TO IT ALL
JUST LIKE YOU
I WALK AROUND MOTIONLESS
AS WE ALL SOMETIMES DO
I’M HARDLY ABOVE IT ALL
I’M CLEARLY BELOW THE WATER LINE
JUST SITTING ON THE PICNIC TABLE
WHILE DOING MY HUMAN TIME
THE TOP
THERE WAS A SMALL MOUNTAIN
IN THE WATER
I KNEW I WAS IN GOOD HANDS
SO PROTECTED IN THE END
WHO WAS LOOKING AFTER ME
MAKING SURE I WAS NOT TAINTED
I CAUSED A RUCKUS
DISORIENTED EVERYONE
IT WAS MY PLAN
BECAUSE I NEEDED EXCITEMENT
I KNOW YOU FORGIVE ME
OR EVEN LED ME ON
PEOPLE SHOULD THINK
AS LONG AS THEY STAY ALIVE
I’M ALIVE
YOU CAN’T FOOL ME
EVEN THOUGH YOU TURN ME
AROUND AND AROUND
LEAVING ME SPINNING LIKE THE TOP
I USED TO PLAY WITH
STRANGELY SERENE
I FEEL STRANGELY SERENE
THE SUN IS SO NICE THIS TIME OF DAY
I FEEL STRANGELY SERENE
THE SUN IS SO NICE THIS TIME OF DAY
THE TREMBLING
WHAT AN INVITING ANATOMY YOU HAVE
THERE’S A BIG SURPRISE INSIDE OF YOU
AND I KNOW RIGHT NOW
THAT THE SURPRISE IS VERY APPROPRIATE
SO OPEN UP YOUR HEART
LIGHTNING BOLTS ERUPT
CRACKING THROUGH THE AIR
EVERYONE TREMBLES IN AWE
THE BLIND SEE
AND THE CRIPPLED WALK
THE DUMBSTRUCK SPEAK
YOUR MIRACLE CURES ALL WHO SEEK
WHAT ARE WE BUT BODIES
BLOOD AND BONES
SORRY ARE YOU WRITING?? WRITE!
ABOUT THOSE THESE BLOOD AND BONES
CALM THESE RAGING SEAS
THE WATER GLISTENS
YOU BREATHE AND I LIVE
YOU ARE MY AIR
WHAT AN INVITING ANATOMY YOU HAVE
I TREMBLE TO LOOK AT YOU
TOUCHING MY BED
I’M TOUCHING MY BED
THAT I’M LAYING UPON
AND I’M FEELING YOU
EVEN THOUGH YOU’RE NOT HERE
I’M FEELING YOU
JUST LIKE YOU WERE HERE
AND THAT’S ALL I NEED
UNTIL TOMORROW COMES
I’M FEELING YOU
I’M FEELING YOU
YOU’RE ALL AROUND ME
EVERYWHERE THAT I MOVE
I KNOW YOU’RE NOT HERE
BUT YOU’RE HERE ANYWAY
YOU’RE HERE YOU’RE HERE
RIGHT BESIDE ME
AND I TOUCH YOU
AND WHEN MORNING COMES
I’LL SEE YOU AGAIN
RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF ME
THE MAN WITH THE HAT
(EXCUSE MY FRENCH)
THERE WAS A MAN WEARING A HAT.
WALKING ALONE DOWN THE STREET IN PARIS.
LOOK AT YOUR HAT
LOOK AT YOUR HAT
LOOK AT YOUR HAT
