business man's world
it's a business man's world
(profits and losses)
business man's world
(stocks)
it's a business man's world
dreaming of mergers and acquisitions
numbers and charts
business man's world
it's a business man's world
it's a business man's world
business man's world
business man's world
business man's world
(clients and lawyers)
it's a business man's world
(suits, shoes)
business man's world
forty days and nights
in the frozen himalayas
I shivered through the nights
and the days i spent in prayer
(businessman's world)
must liquidate my assets
or the monk won't give me passage into-
BUSINESS MAN'S WORLD.

it's not too late to just admit
you admit you didn't know
that thing you said to me
would cut me so low
i'm looking up to hear you say
"please don't go,
i don't intend to let you
let me go solo"
i fear i know the answer
i't just so
unspeakable
and yes, i guess i always knew
the way through
the things to never ever say
and not do
the words embedded in the grooves
in our hearts
the words that made us
move so far apart
i know i know your answer
it's just so
unthinkable
(i was so afraid you were going to leave)

risking it
01:00
|
|||
|
why do you play
these games with me?
pullin me out on my
two left feet, like this
got me acting real
strange, woman
there isn't a thing i won't do
for you, woman
heaven's empty, the angels are you
i'm gracelessly falling apart
has it occured to you, by being yourself
you've already stolen my heart

getting together
01:31
|

|
i've been thinking about
the distance between
this thing that we are
and what i think we should be
all that i want is to bring them together
get us together
you think we're moving too fast
i think we're moving too slow
sometimes, i wonder
are we moving at all?
i need you to know, i've been thinking about it
i've been thinking about
getting together
getting together
i've been thinking about
(all i wanna do is)
getting together
(get us together)
getting together

complications
01:47
|

|
complications came into the picture
the moment we met
it's never easy
knowing the words that should never be said
whisper to myself,
I love you, I love you
so much
it's never easy
falling for someone who tears
it's never easy
but doesn't mean that you won't risk
in a heartbeat
just tell me you love me
i don't need to know
i just need to hear it
so please say it, slow
lie to me again
say, "i love you"

how do i explain the way i feel
without everybody feeling really weird
things i bottled up and set to sea
keep on finding their ways back to me
maybe it's a sign i should embrace
leave it well alone in a quiet place
but i really wish that i could finally say
"it's not okay, will it go away?"
how do i explain the way i feel
without everybody feeling really weird

eluvahband

at the first show she was there
with the stage-lights in her hair
she looked divine
we played just fine, she said
"when you're made, put me on the list
i'll pump my fist like this
eluvahband,
I'm your number one fan"
she's a pure, heavy soul
full of love and rock n roll
looking out in the crowd
you see her singing out
this is the one
this is her favorite song
she cries, every time
and every time you lie
the band's gonna die
there'll be no next time
you can try play it slow
but it comes and then it goes
we're getting old
but back at the show
we were pure, heavy souls
full of love and rock n roll
she is the sound of heaven
the words we spoke
pulled through a pool in four four rhythm
cigarette-end of a long long joke
i want you to see me
guitar held in my hand
with my voice turned up to heaven
this is where i'm meant to stand
here i am
we were pure, heavy souls
full of love and rock and roll

blue dolphin hotel

there's that cassette tape i bought for you
in the summer of '94
at the blue dolphin's lobby
i said i was sorry
for saying those things before
know i am always on your side
so just close your eyes, i'll drive
roll the windows down
and feel the summer in your hair
sweat and citrus, lemon and honey
breathe the summer air
know i am always on your side
so just close your eyes, i'll drive
roll the windows down
and feel the summer in your hair
sweat and citrus, lemon and honey
breathe the country air

a season
01:25

|
reserve amens and hallelujahs
until the time for them has come
for now, i am in mourning
let me mourn until i'm done
i will allow your quiet company
i think that's being pretty fair
but do not talk, not that i hate you
i am just much too tired to care
i will repair myself, with time
i do not need a hand
but right now, i am broken
in ways you could not understand
|

lift me up
00:59
|
|||
|
sunlight pulled me up, it dragged me
out of my bed
i shudder at the thought of being
out of my bed
yeah, sometimes i feel so so so
small
and i wanna give up
yeah, sometimes i get so so so
low
would you lift me up?

a year in the fog
02:49
|
|||
|
swallowed up in my pillow
trying to remember how to sleep
barefoot in damp green fields
losing myself, counting sheep
this year's been a lousy daydream
must be the fog i'm under
i need to be someone else
someone who feels awe and wonder, i guess
you've no idea what this has done to me
days blend from one to other
hanging out longer than they should
i'm feeling a little tired
in ways that i never thought i could
this year's been a lousy small-town
derelict mall, still going under
i need to be someone else
someone who feels awe and wonder, i guess
