1.Again and Again
Listen dear, I need you to hear, I cannot disappear
I've tried again and again and again and again
I know we said that we give up
Said we had enough
Again and again and again and again
But you, you're always on my mind
It's like this all the time
Say it's 'cause you're mine, all mine
And if you will, I will, try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye, this is do or die
Will not say enough, until you say enough
There is no giving in, there is no giving up in love
Walk down the street, stare at lots of things;
The passing steady streams
Again and again and again and again
Do what I should, try to stay busy
But you're face is all I see
Again and again and again and again
But you, you're always on my mind
It's like this all the time
Say it's 'cause you're mine, all mine
Cause if you will, I will, try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye, this is do or die
Will not say enough, until you say enough
There is no giving in, there is no giving up in love
Like a movie I once saw,
In the darkness I recall
Feeling the beauty and the pain, when you call my name
Say you feel the same
Cause if you will, I will, try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show
And if you will, I will, try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye, this is do or die
Will not say enough, until you say enough
There is no giving in, there is no giving up in love
We're in love
I cannot disappear
I've tried again and again
and again and again
亲爱的.仔细听.我需要你的倾听.我无法消失
我试了又试.再三的试了又试
我知道我们说好放手
说我们尽了
再次的再次的
但你.总是我最在意的
你就这样一直存在'
那都因为你是我的.都是我的
如果你试着放手.我也会试着放手
你试着放手.我试着放手
试着展现我们的爱
爱一直都存在
看看我的眼.是合还是分
我不说我们的爱足够.直到你说
那儿没有放弃我们的爱
走在街道上.心中凝视着我们的回忆
穿越平稳的小河
再三的想着
我到底该做什么
但看到的都是你的影子
再次的再次的
但你.总是我最在意的
你就这样一直存在'
那都因为你是我的.都是我的
如果你试着放手.我也会试着放手
你试着放手.我试着放手
试着展现我们的爱
爱一直都存在
看看我的眼.是合还是分
我不说我们的爱足够.直到你说
那儿没有放弃我们的爱
就像我曾经看过的电影
在黑暗中我呼唤着
你呼唤我的名字时.我感到开心但痛苦
你说你感同身受
如果你试着放手.我也会试着放手
你试着放手.我试着放手
试着展现我们的爱
如果你试着放手.我也会试着放手
你试着放手.我试着放手
试着展现我们的爱
爱一直都存在
看看我的眼.是合还是分
我不说我们的爱足够.直到你说
那儿没有放弃我们的爱
我们彼此相爱
我不可以消失
我再次的试了
试了又试....
2.Long Slow Slide
Lights are bright in the circus
The geeks and the freaks all light cigarettes and laugh at your
misery
While the white of the curtain closing crushes your heart
The inertia of loneliness tears your flesh apart
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down
Once the neon is gone
There's still that golden splinter at your side
His manners are charming
But who are you fooling
You're still nobody's bride
And Bukowski's widow
Haunts each empty seat on the ferris wheel
As ghoulish lovers collide in a collage of kisses that they
steal
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down
And outside your window you can see the circus it's lurching
with rings of smoke
You laugh halfheartedly at the punchline
Not realizing they've made you the joke
And inside you're heart a war is raging
A region still untamed
The worst fear I can imagine is for the mystery to be named
Is for the mystery to be named
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down
3.Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Its four in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving LA
Trying to figure out my life
My youth scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms in headlights
I've made a living with a song
Just a guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to be loved
Fame is filled with spoiled children
They grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection
Of my lonely mind wanting
What's been missing in my life
I'm embarassed to say
The rest is a rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when i reached the top
But I never knew it was you
Who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not
Yes, a heart can hallucinate
If its completely starved of love
Can even turn monsters into
Angels from above
Forged my love just like a weapon
And you turned it against me like a knife
Broke my last heart string
But you opened up my eyes
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection
Of my lonely mind searching
For what's been missing in my life
And growing up is not an absence of dreaming
It's being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold
And dreaming is a good thing
Cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending
That perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are
Seeing for what you've been told
And growing up is not the answer to dreaming
Its being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold
Truth is stranger than fiction
This is my chance to get it right
Life is much better
Without all of those pretty lies
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are my tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection
Of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection
Of my lonely mind finding
I found what's missing in my life
4.Good Day
I say to myself
Self, why are you awake again？ It's one a.m.
Standing with the fridge door wide open, staring
Such a sight, florescent light
The stars are bright
Might make a wish, if I believed in that shit
As it is, I might watch TV
Cause it's nice to see people more messed up than me
I say to myself, as I smile at the wall, let myself fall
It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gotta be
I shiver, shut the door
Can't think standing here no more
I'm alone, my mine's racing, heart breaking
Can you be everything I need you to be？
Can you protect me like a daughter？
Can you love me like a father？
Can you drink me like water？
Say I'm like the desert, just hotter.
The point of it all
Is that if I should fall
Still you're name I'll call
It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
As long as we laugh out loud
Laugh like we're mad
Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have
Because what's love but an itch we can't scratch, a joke we
can't catch
But still we laugh
I go back upstairs, turn off the TV
You say 'I'll be okay baby, just wait and see.'
It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be okay
Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see
Gonna okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be...
5.Satellite
babies on beach blankets headed for mars
cute guys with crew cuts and the day glow surf boards
there's a pretty lady in a bikini
her eyes are clear
but her teeth look like smashed-out window panes
she's trying to mend her dreams
with sushi and seaweed and carrot juice
there's a wide wall
that we can't see over now
but that's ok, we're still learning
mistakes are allowed ...
if you're a satellite
yoga classes
so you can look good in your singles bars
california's sure lovely
it's the home of the stars
and everybody is a nice body
but their souls are like shadows
they are hollow inside
they're choked and
hiding behind
power bars and volleyballs and valium
there's a wide wall
that we can't see over now
but that's ok, we're still learning
mistakes are allowed...
if you're a satellite
we understand a lot of things
about modern technology
but not about dreams
our hearts are on the shelves
we can't fix ourselves,
but we can fix a satellite
in hollywood the heroes are strung out on grace
and half-skinned gypsies are screaming, 'leave this place!'
there's a wide wall
that we can't see over now
that's ok, we're still learning
mistakes are allowed...
if you're a satellite
we know how to fix a satellite
babies on beach blankets headed for mars
6.Only One Too
I am talking but you can't quite hear what I say.
I come closer but you push me away.
I should leave but I don't have the strength.
I can't think.
Please can't you see that I am down on my knees.
My heart's in your hand and you squeeze.
I want the whole thing but you give me a part.
It's time you start.
So I push and I pull
And I don't know which way to go
Stop me, stop me from falling
Cause you can see, see where this is going
If you love me, why do you leave me
If you need me
Then I love you only when I am the only one too.
I just can't make you understand
I want you're heart but you hold up you're hand
You say space is what you need
But you want me to be true to just you
While you get to do whatever you want to
Stop me, stop me from falling
Cause you can see, see where this is going
If you love me, why do you leave me
If you need me
Then I love you only when I am the only one too.
You'll never stop
It's gotta change
You don't want a lover you want a world of slaves.
I can't resist falling into those arms
Those boyish charms
You think I won't leave
You're so good but not so good
I can see
Stop me, stop me from falling
Cause you can see, see where this is going
If you love me, why do you leave me
If you need me
Then I love you only when I am the only one too.
Stop me, stop me from falling
Cause you can see, see where this is going
If you love me, why do you leave me
If you need me
Then I love you only when I am the only one too.
7.Words Get in the Way
Come here buttercup.
Let me fill you up.
Can't you see I'm the blue in you're skies？
You can tell by the stars in my eyes.
Dawn always comes too soon.
It hurts me like a bruise.
There's a hole in my pillow where you used to be.
It feels like a hole in the middle of me.
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
Tell you're boss you're dead.
And lets go back to bed.
You make me wanna break out a song
But everytime I try it just comes out wrong
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
I leave a message on you're answering machine
I try to say what I really mean
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
8.Drive To You
Tonight I have the strangest feeling
Look for answers on a hotel ceiling
When did my heart first feel this way？
Being alone used to be just fine.
Now life without you is just passing time.
I thought I heard you call my name.
Reached for you're hand, it was in vein.
When you're here, it feels like a hole in my chest.
Get dressed, look in the mirror, say
'You're heart will never be the same.'
So I drive to you tonight
I was blind, now I have sight.
I could not leave you even if I tried.
You're heart beats inside of me.
Like a star in the dark of night,
Like birds lost in flight.
The clouds in the sky are blue
I belong with you.
I've been together, but alone.
I've made love without love being shown.
I've seen sorrow in a pair of dice,
All things that came in two's made me cry
Until tonight.
So I drive to you tonight
I was blind, now I have sight.
I could not leave you even if I tried.
You're heart beats inside of me.
Like a star in the dark of night,
Like birds lost in flight.
The clouds in the sky are blue
I belong with you.
Can't stop, won't stop.
Love is all we've got
Know how much I love ya
When I put my arms around you
Can't stop, won't stop
You are all I want
So I drive to you tonight
I was blind, now I have sight.
I could not leave you even if I tried.
You're heart beats inside of me.
Like a star in the dark of night,
Like birds lost in flight.
The clouds in the sky are blue, yea
The clouds in the sky are blue
I belong with you.
9.Last Dance Rodeo
Your lungs fill up with concrete
Her voice is all you can hear
Red lips and a screwdriver
Wrapped around some mink-clad smear
And you know that she's a diamond
And it's damned you for sure (OR In this damn juke box hell)
'Cause fools gold only fools fools
In two-bit hotels.
But she's cooler than all that
She's a real high-class cat
She's queen of the last dance rodeo.
But under the gas lamp
The air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger
Your heart filled with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole.
You wanna bury your face forever
In the navel of her soul
'Cause you know ...
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home
That's all.
Light bulbs, and nylons
And plastic chandeliers
Objects are only objects,
They can't feel when you're near.
And tangerine lips
And lily-white breasts
These things are eternal
Inside them humanity rests.
The skin is like a seashell
You listen to the soul
Like an old-time radio show.
But under the gas lamp
The air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger
Your heart filled with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole.
You wanna bury your face forever
In the navel of her soul
'Cause you know ...
All you need is a heart to call home
That's all.
But don't wander too far
On one constant star
Darkness exists, except where you are
Your feet are filled with wandering
They follow your own
'Cause everywhere you are
Feels like home.
So search all you miners
You hunters of dreams
Look in the alleyways
For what you know is not what it seems
And fame, all you maidens,
It don't exist too long
But at least look behind you
And see your own shadow's gone
Don't you know it's the last rodeo
You gotta find yourself a cowboy
Or someone to keep you
Warm when it snows.
But under the gas lamp
The air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger
Your heart filled with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole.
You wanna bury your face forever
In the navel of her soul
'Cause you know ...
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart
All you need is a heart to call home
That's all.
10.Fragile Heart
You better take your watch off
When around large machinery
You better hide your wallet
If you plan to sleep with theives
Don't forget your bullet-proof vest
The next time you pick a fight with a guard
And if you work with unstable objects
Wear a hat that's hard
CHORUS
It's simple tips like these
That keep you safe from injuries
The surgeon general should do his part：
Warning, beware, be careful - Fragile Heart
Take out your contact lenses
If you drive through a dust storm
Look both ways before crossing
The freeway of any legal form
Take off your antique jewelry
The next time you jump into a chlorinated pool
And don't forget, build a fence around your heart
The next time you give it to a fool
CHORUS
Take your socks off the heater, man
You know they're gonna get burned
Don't lend out your favourite pair of pliers
Unless you're sure they'll get returned
You would not give a shiny medal
To someone who don't work for it
So do not give of yourself
To one who won't adore it
11.Stephenville, TX
Housewives trying to recapture their youth
By wearing floral print and suede
Fixing their hairdos with PC, chemical-free hairspray
Martha Stewart taught them to make on TV
I was raised a farmgirl
I'm too far from home, all alone on the road
Trying to figure out who I am now the the stardust has turned to
sand
And the sand has turned to stone on the starmaking machine
I'm 25 years old
That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began
And my daddy, he wrote songs and he broke colts
And he went back to school to get a degree
Now he teachs music to kids, he taught music to me
And this Alaskan girl was living in Stephenville, Texas
Yes, you guessed it, I moved here because I fell in love with a
man
And I moved his ex-old lady's things out of the closet
The same closet I had to move my things back in
It didn't make me feel that great, as if to demonstrate
Everything's temporary given enough time
But hey, I've got nothing to lose I'm a singer for crowds, I'm a
writer of songs
Hey Mom, look, I'm an entertainer I'm a modern day troubadour
trying to find justice with six strings
Trying to make the world make sense out of me
Trying to be loved completely, trying to love honestly
Trying to find a decent high noon cup of tea
In another shitty hotel
I'm trying to listen to the leaves speak
Trying to steal secrets from fishes in the creek
Trying to figure out who I am
A singer, a pretty bad cook, maybe a good mom
What will it be？
And I'm 25 years old
That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began
I'm trying to figure out who I am
But there's no hand to hold, no Doctor Martin Luther King
There's just syncophants
And the mindlessness on TV or in the magazines
On the latest ways to behave
So why not follow me, the blond bombshell deity？
I'll sell you neat ideas without big words
And a little bit of cleavage to help wash it all down
Hey, everybody thought Godard was a clown
And that ain't gonna be me
And I'm 25 years old
That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began
And I'm 25 years old
That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began
Guess that just means I'm in Texas
12.Where You Are
I called you late last night
Said you didn't feel like talkin'
Had to blow off a little bit of steam
Said you were tired of feeling so up-tight
You make me so blue
Oh, I get so lost inside of you, but
I can not always find my way
To where you are
Oh, used to be so easy
Use to be so much fun
You say (yea) that was back when you belived in my love, but
that
Things are not so simple now
Oh, I've turned off the lights somehow, and
In the darkness you cannot always find your way
To where I am
Please don't
Take your lights from me
'Cause of you did
I would no longer be able to see
Please, can't you see
I need, you
I am a princess and I'm locked inside this stone tower of song,
and I
I'm trying to write messages on the wondow baby, God I just
wanna belong
Choose me
Choose me
Pick me, take me, oh I need to believe
Oh, no one else exsits for you now, and
No one else exsists for me
Oh, you are my home, and I have
Finally found my way
To where you are
13.1000 Miles Away
It's morning time, wonder where you are
Wonder who you're talking to
Wonder if the sun has risen where you are
It's morning time, i miss your hands on my skin
This bed's too big without you
Oh god, what do i do？
I'm a thousand miles away, and I'm lying next to you.
The sun shines golden, and I feel like my car
A little run down, a little beat up, maybe just a little green
Maybe it's my battery, maybe it's my starter,
Maybe my heart's too weak
There's just this feeling, thought I had to get going
Got too scary, got too big, got to get out of here
But now i don't know how to get home.
Oh god, what do I do？
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.
Mama says take my vitamins,
Daddy says 'girl, don't stay out so late'
Sister says 'there's other fishes in the sea'
But love is not a rational thing, and my heart is beyond advice
No, love is not a rational thing
Oh god, what do I do？
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.
These fields stretch out like patchwork, on my granny's quilt
She used to tell me that
'Life is a series of strange and mysterious things
One minute you think you're up, the next you find you're down'
Your mind says 'girl, you gotta stick around'
But your heart says 'I'm too weak in the knees'
Oh god, what do I do？
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.
