The road of rosemary sweet
Has a thorn reminding me
Because of you, i learned to pray
Anything to keep you far away
The road of rosemary sweet
Has a thorn reminding me
The world i've been so mad at her and the
World no matter what it turns
The more i see it the more it burns oh
Who's taking care of love
Who's taking care of love
The road of rosemary sweet
Has a thorn reminding me
And because of this i learned to pray
Anything to give me peace some day
The road of rosemary sweet
Has a thorn reminding me
The world i've been so mad at her and the
World no matter what it turns
The more i see it the more it burns oh
Who's taking care of love
Who's taking care of love
Who's taking care of love?
I've got my ear to the ground
To hear your footsteps coming around
Down the road of rosemary sweet
There's a thorn that's saved for me
The world i've been so mad at her and the
World no matter what it turns
The more i see it the more it burns oh
Who's taking care of love
Who's taking care of love
I'm taking care of love.

Questions + Lies
03:11
|
|||
so you wanna tell or do you wanna lay
there and oh could you just say it to
me, say it to me, could you just tell
me anything
are you gonna stay there oh baby say it
to me did you ever think that we could
be at a place where
you ask me
"do you still love me?"
i ask you
"does the sea ever dry?"
we go on answering questions with questions and lies
so just say that you hate me and that
i'm all you never want
are we backless? useless ? -- we want
the things we never give – we'll
stick to the script in this holy dark
song where you
you ask me
"do you still love me?"
i ask you
"does the sea ever dry?"
we go on answering questions with questions and lies
so you ask me are you happy, i think 'oh i've tried'
you ask me, are you happy, i say 'are
there stars in the sky?'
do you really want to believe this lie
do you really want to believe this lie
i really want to believe this lie
believe this lie, where
you ask me
"do you still love me?"
i ask you
"does the sea ever dry?"
we go on answering questions with questions and lies
do you really want to believe this lie
do you really want to believe this lie
i really want to believe this lie
believe this lie
believe this lie.

Asked a wise woman what she thought of the life she’s led and she said “if you live long enough, you’ll find everybody’s just another love song gone bad.
And we’re searching
I thought about me and you, him, her, anybody i’ve ever met
If you live long enough you’ll find what makes the man is everything he never had
And we’re searching for the same things
Whether you’re afraid or you’re brave or both
Looking for the truth or a lie to believe
We’re searching
And if you’re looking for a ray of hope, better yet –
A truth or a lie to believe
We’re searching for love inside
Somebody to love, a minute, a day or a life
(maybe just to sleep through the night)
I don’t want to go out like someone who never tries.
A friend asked me how i walk through fire, trial and strife and i said “if you live long enough, you’ll find, right here, right now, may be your best of times.?
And we’re searching for the same things
Whether you’re afraid or you’re brave or both
Looking for the truth or a lie to believe
We’re searching
And if you’re looking for a ray of hope, better yet –
A truth or a lie to believe
We’re searching for love inside
Somebody to love, a minute, a day or a life
(maybe just to sleep through the night)
I don’t want to go out like someone who never tries.
Whether you’re afraid or you’re brave or both
Looking for the truth or a lie to believe
And if you’re looking for a ray of hope, better yet
A truth or a lie to believe
We’re searching
For love inside
A minute, a day or a life.
Can you sleep through the night?

Used to cry myself cold
Now i cry in your warmth
Used to laugh myself bold
Now i don't laugh alone
And our finest moments are silence.
Our silence.
We could take up a day
Walk the city streets
And say look at that and laugh at that i'll tell you some stories
You can tell me all your dreams.
But there's something else, that means so much more
When we lay there in silence.
When we stare out in silence.
Our finest moments are silence.
Our finest moments are ....
I wish i could own them, because i live for these moments of silence.
Our silence
When we lay there in silence.
When we stare out in silence.
When you hold me and i can't say anything, i realize you are my silence.
You are my silence.

Wicked Times
04:01
|
|||
it comes from beginning
it comes from the end
i know it all like an unwritten
rule and i won't live in fear
again
it comes from looked over
it comes from your friends
i've known it all before i've
been born and i won't live like
i did then because
these are wicked times
gotta know where to hide
i know it all like an unwritten rule yet i still
feel uneasy when the storm comes
it plays in the playing
it plays in the game
i've seen the sides of a man
through his eyes and i would
rather be insane, to you, because
these are wicked times
gotta know where to hide
i know it all like an unwritten rule yet i still
feel uneasy when the storm comes
it makes it seem nothing
then it becomes everything
i hold it tight in these hands of mine then it
turns to sand again
these are wicked times
gotta know where to hide
i know it all like an unwritten rule yet i still
feel uneasy when the storm, when the
storm comes.
these are wicked times.

Recurring Dream
04:20
|

been on appeal, long as long ago
i've been pacing for me to call
and it follows me like a ghost
i've been pacing for me to call.
i want to know
i want to know
when i try to spin it all from gold
it just tears in a bigger hole
i wanna feel it so close
it's been waiting for me to crawl.
i want to know
i want to know
i feel your soul
i hear your soul
and i want to know –
did you ever wonder if i'd come home?
did you ever wonder if your
dreams weren't alone?
i want to know.

Laurel Canyon

Driving down Laurel Canyon
On days of dark she likes to daydream
Hoping anything can happen
She sees through different eyes
>From the dark into the light
We all have different eyes
-but in the face of it all- could you sing like
La da da da da da da La da da da da da da da da da da
On days of dark she’ll be rearranging things
To make the time of the day go faster
On days of dark she’ll wait for the phone to ring
To see if anyone cares if she’s not there
She sees through different eyes
>From the dark into the light
We all have different eyes
-but in the face of it all- could you sing like
La da da da da da da La da da da da da da da da da da
She sees through different eyes
>From the dark into the light
We all have different eyes
-but in the face of it all- could you sing like
La da da da da da da La da da da da da da da da da da

Devil I Know
03:47
|

the devil i know
his hands are like nicotine
the devil i know
won't let me be
i can't tell him no
i just get so weak
and it's thunder, shaking i can't take it
and you can't help who you love
is it better to take up another one?
its the devil i know.
i can't remember before this devil i know
he treats me like his dog tied to a paper rope
i could leave but i stay, oh i stay
and it's thunder, shaking i can't take it
and you can't help who you love
is it better to take up another one?
its the devil i know.
and if you couldn't see, i'd take the burden
and if i wanted to leave, i wouldn't be certain
at times i don't think you care
and it's thunder, shaking, i can't take it
and you can't help who you love
is it better to take up another one?
its the devil i know.
or the devil i don't.

Silver Line
04:06
|

have seen
it feels like home in a dream
Wake to the trees
and shadows on the sheets
never ever gonna break my heart
cause you never ever ever knew it from the start
it feels like rain wants to come
but how can there be a silver line with no clouds in the sky?
Song on repeat
It's the closest you'll ever be (to me)
Now I see
why it feels like home in a dream
never ever gonna break my heart
cause you never ever ever knew me from the start
it feels like rain wants to come
but how can there be a silver line with no clouds in the sky?
never ever gonna break my heart
cause you never ever ever knew me from the start
it feels like rain wants to come
but how can there be a silver line with no clouds in the sky?
In the sky
In the sky

Darkest Rivers
04:35
|

In the night of the darkest rivers
I will find you
The moon lights the darkest rivers
I will find you
I have cried the darkest rivers
Just to find you
The moon lights the darkest rivers
I will find you
In the night of the darkest rivers
Love will guide you
Take the flight of the darkest rivers
Love will find you
Don’t give up on this
The rivers lead to it
Don’t give up on this
They know what we don’t
In the night of the darkest rivers
Love will guide you
I have cried the darkest rivers
I will find you
Don’t give up on this
The rivers lead to it
Don’t give up on this
They know what we don’t
I will find you. Love will guide you.
