Greywind

Teardrop on a fragile eyelash She's looking like a dream Hoping for some understanding An answer or at least A calming word a single sentence To restore her heart Aching since the day I left her Crossing lonely seas Silent tears of a woman Make a warrior cry Heaven, I beg you Please release hopes from fears This is my elegy Do you know what I feel? This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms again? Dewdrops on a single rosebud This purity of rain Reminds me of the moment I left her Kisses filled with pain And if I should leave her waiting For another year Will she ever know the answer? Will she follow me? Silent tears of a woman Make a warrior cry Heaven, I beg you Please release hopes from fears This is my elegy Do you know what I feel? This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms.. Hold you in my arms again? A calming word, a single sentence To restore her heart Aching since the day I left her Crossing lonely seas Silent tears of a woman Make a warrior cry Heaven, I beg you Please release hopes from fears This is my elegy Do you know what I feel? This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? This is my elegy (this is my, this is my..) Do you know what I feel? (this is my, this is my..) Elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms again?

I saw you standing hand in hand And now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go the who to see No one could sympathize The Smile Has Left Your Eyes The Smile Has Left Your Eyes And I've become a rolling stone I don't know where to go or what to call my own But I can see that black horizon glooming ever close to view It's over now it's not my fault See how this feels for you The Smile Has Left Your Eyes The Smile Has Left Your Eyes But I never thought I'd see you Standing there with him So don't come crawling back to me Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now that the Smile Has Left Your Eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now it's too late you realized Now that the Smile Has Left Your Eyes

Standing alone in solitude Holding your head in your hands Tears play like rain on your fingertips Who but yourself is to blame? How could I offer sympathy? When all I feel is pure rejection I was the first one to really know your name And you were the first one for me But everyone knew but me You were the first one to ever let me down And I was just The Last To Know I was the fool who trusted you No evil thoughts in my mind When I saw you going out with him Who could I blame, for this deception?

Walking through the snow kicking my heels Seems that sunlight never felt so good before Bet you really don't know how it feels I don't have to answer to no one no more And better I've never felt Nothing to show, but nothing to lose, I'm on my own Cast your mind back not so long ago I was always busy playing by the rules Bet you thought I really didn't know You were double dealing, now you're back at school Something you didn't learn Faith in myself Gives me the strength to carry on I'll do what I want to anyway I'll do what I want and I'll do it in My own time Don't give that same old pack of lies I'll tell you the story how it really is You think you always had me under ties Someone better tell you that the table's turned Getting your fingers burned, how does it feel? Now it's for real this is the deal I'll do what I want to anyway I'll do what I want and I'll do it in My own time is on my side again And one thing I intend Is to do it in my own time

There is nothing I can do As you leave me here to cry There is nothing I can do As you leave me here to cry You know my love will follow you As the years go passing by Give you all that I own That's one thing you can't deny Give you all that I own That's one thing you can't deny You know my love will follow you As the years go passing by Gonna leave it up to you So long, so long, goodbye Gonna leave it up to you So long, so long, goodbye You know my love will follow you As the years go passing by Gonna leave it up to you So long, so long, goodbye Gonna leave it up to you So long, so long, goodbye You know my love will follow you As the years go passing by

Methos: So I'm a little weak on pop culture. Well, who the hell is Chubby Checker in the grand scheme of things, anyway? I mean I, I know how tall Nero was, Caesar's favorite food, I know Helen of Troy didn't have that great a face and it only launched a hundred ships not a thousand, and...

There's a miracle waiting, there's a ticket worth taking There's a reason to believe your eyes An ounce of conviction is the only admission Yeah, it's risky, but it's worth the ride And all the dreams that you've held inside Yes, they're waiting to break out, you just have to try Make it shine, let your heart beat right in time Make it shine, lay your whole world on the line Find a clue and unfold it, shake the dust off and hold it If it tells you something let me know So much is forgotten, so much worth unlocking Won't you tell me how to break the code And never worry 'bout the things you read It's so easy to tear down, so hard to believe Too may dreamers are fading, shine on, shine on, shine Live, there's a life to live Give, there's a gift to give Yes, there's a reason to make it Shine on and make it true, Work, make it work for you Yes, there's a reason to make it shine Find a secret and learn it, find a key there and turn it Do whatever you do through the night A skill in your fingers like a memory lingers You gotta do it till it comes out right You never know till you take a chance If you're out on that wire you might as well dance

I was listening to the radio I heard a song reminded me of long ago Back then I thought that things were never gonna change It used to be that I never had to feel the pain I know that things will never be the same now I want to go back And do it all over again But I can't go back I know I want to go back Cause I'm feeling so much older But I can't go back I know I recall hanging out on Friday night The first slow dance Hoping that I'll get it right Back then I thought I'd never ever stand alone It used to be that a lonely heart was never shown I know that things will never be the same I want to go back And do it all over again But I can't go back I know I want to go back Cause I'm feeling so much older But I can't go back I know Can't go back I can't go back I know now that things will never be the same I said I want to go back And do it all over again But I can't go back I know I want to go back Cause I'm feeling so much older But I can't go back I know I want to go back And do it all over again But I can't go back I know I want to go back Cause I'm feeling so much older But I can't go back I know I want to go back And do it all over again But I can't go back I know I want to go back Cause I'm feeling so much older But I can't go back I know No, No And do it all over...

One revolution turning around Grace under pressure but don't make a sound Our house is divided but together we stand The one constitution go hand to hand Here's to you, red and yellow, black and white Once the daylight turned to night We're not as bold as we may seem We're looking for the American dream Yes, American dream Some people hiding, they go underground Sex is an issue in every dead town Trading in secrets and dealing in lies Living is easy when you close your eyes Here's to you, red and yellow, black and white Join the daylight, return to night We're not as bold as we may seem We're looking for the American dream Here's to you, red and yellow, black and white Join the daylight, return to night We're not as bold as we may seem We're looking for the American dream Looking for the American dream, yeah Looking for the American dream The American dream And we're not as bold as we may seem American dream We're looking for the American dream

There you go, walking away like you did before But I know, I know you'll be back, back for more And the game, the game will go on as it was Nothing's changed, we'll know when we're closer to love Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid Can't you see that there are no victims, just volunteers We won't change, we won't change until we face our fears We're alone, even though we are together right now Love remains, just out of reach somehow Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again Aren't we desperate I know we can make it, take up that look into my eyes We'll take the future for you and I, yeah! Are we so desperate, oh are we afraid We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again Are we so desperate, aren't we afraid Desperate

I was actually watching Nikki, but the tune is kind of catchy.

Could just be a cameo. Movie poster sort of thing.

I don't need to fall at your feet Just 'cause you cut me to the bone And I won't miss the way that you kiss me We were never carved in stone If I don't listen to the talk of the town Then maybe I can fool myself I'll get over you I know I will I'll pretend my ship's not sinking And I'll tell myself I'm over you 'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking I am the king of wishful thinking I refuse to give in to my blues That's not how it's going to be And I deny the tears in my eyes 'Cause I don't want to let you see no That you have made a hole in my heart And now I've got to fool myself I'll get over you I know I will I'll pretend my ship's not sinking And I'll tell myself I'm over you 'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking (I'll get over you I know I will) I'll pretend my ship's not sinking And I'll tell myself I'm over you 'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking (king of wishful thinking) I will never, never shed a tear for you I'll get over you (I know I will) If I don't listen to the talk of the town Then maybe I can fool myself I'll get over you I know I will I'll pretend my ship's not sinking And I'll tell myself I'm over you 'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking I'm the king of wishful thinking I'll get over you I know I will You made a hole in my heart But I won't shed a tear for you I'll be the king of wishful thinking I'll get over you (I know I will) I'll pretend my heart's still beating 'Cause I've got no more tears for you I'm the king of wishful thinking I'll get over you (I know I will) You made a hole in my heart And I'll tell myself I'm over you 'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

Met my old lover in the grocery store The snow was falling, Christmas Eve I stole behind her in the frozen foods And I touched her on the sleeve She didn't recognize the face at first But then her eyes flew open wide She went to hug me and she spilled her purse And we laughed until we cried We took her groceries to the checkout stand The food was totaled up and bagged We stood there lost in our embarrassment As the conversation dragged We went to have ourselves a drink or two But couldn't find an open bar We bought a six-pack at the liquor store And we drank it in her car We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to now And tried to reach beyond the emptiness But neither one knew how She said she'd married her an architect Who kept her warm and safe and dry She would have liked to say she loved the man But she didn't like to lie I said the years had been a friend to her And that her eyes were still as blue But in those eyes I wasn't sure If I saw doubt or gratitude She said she saw me in the record stores And that I must be doing well I said the audience was heavenly But the traveling was hell We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to now And tried to reach beyond the emptiness But neither one knew how We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to time Reliving in our eloquence Another 'Auld Lang Syne' The beer was empty and our tongues were tired And running out of things to say She gave a kiss to me as I got out And I watched her drive away Just for a moment I was back at school And felt that old familiar pain And as I turned to make my way back home The snow turned into rain

Down in the southwest Virginia town of Richlands I fell in love with an Appalachian girl She lived in a long line of little row houses On the side of an old strip mining hill Oh, she walked along on the jagged ridge And looked as far as she could see But the hills out there so up and down You only see as far as the next big ridge Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow on the hill Another time and another place I feel her in my heart still Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow 'round the bend I see her in my mind and then I go down the road not taken again, taken again Oh, the coal dust settles on the window display Gotta change it about every other day Oh, some things never change way out here But outsider could always remain that way Oh, she walked along on the jagged ridge She told me she was sittin' there thinkin' of me But every time I tried to take her away She alway ran back to the rocks and the trees Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow on the hill Another time and another place I feel her in my heart still Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow 'round the bend I see her in my mind and then I go down the road not taken again Oh, not taken, taken again, not taken again Oh, I went back there after many years Oh, so, so curious and so secretly Oh, as I looked on, I held back a tear Oh, the road not taken overcoming me Oh, I saw her, she was sittin' there Older, thinner on the front porch It seemed the light a little brighter there Or maybe, I still carried the forgotten torch Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow on the hill Another time and another place I see her in my heart still Every time I see her face On the street in the hollow 'round the bend I see her in my mind and then I go down the road not taken again Oh, I go down the road not taken, yeah Taken again not taken, taken again Yeah yeah yeah

You can look at the menu, but you just can't eat You can feel the cushion, but you can't have a seat You can dip your foot in the pool, but you can't have a swim You can feel the punishment, but you can't commit the sin And you want her, and she wants you We want everyone And you want her and she wants you No one, no one, no one ever is to blame You can build a mansion, but you just can't live in it You're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win Some break the rules, and let you cut the cost The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost You can see the summit but you can't reach it It's the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit Doctor says you're cured but you still feel the pain Aspirations in the clouds but your hopes go down the drain No one ever is to blame, No one ever is to blame

The song came and went Like the times that we spent Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she'd smile It would last for awhile You don't know what you got till you lose it all again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go A cool evening dance Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill From the air till they play the last song I'll do my time Keeping you off my mind but there's moments That I find, I'm not feeling so strong Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go Running down by the lake shore She did love the sound of a summer storm It played on the lake like a mandolin Now it's washing her away once again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go The boat's steaming in I watch the side wheel spin and I Think about her when I hear that whistle blow I can't change my mind I knew all the time that she'd go But that's a choice I made long ago Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

red rain is coming down red rain red rain is pouring down pouring down all over me I am standing up at the water's edge in my dream I cannot make a single sound as you scream it can't be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch this place is so quiet, sensing that storm red rain is coming down red rain red rain is pouring down pouring down all over me well I've seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town they tell you that this rain can sting, and look down there is no blood around see no sign of pain hay ay ay no pain seeing no red at all, see no rain red rain is coming down red rain red rain is pouring down pouring down all over me red rain putting the pressure on much harder now to return again and again just let the red rain splash you let the rain fall on your skin I come to you defences down with the trust of a child red rain is coming down red rain red rain is pouring down pouring down all over me and I can't watch any more no more denial it's so hard to lay down in all of this red rain is coming down red rain is pouring down red rain is coming down all over me I see it red rain is coming down red rain is pouring down red rain is coming down all over me I'm bathing in it red rain coming down red rain is coming down red rain is coming down all over me I'm begging you red rain coming down red rain coming down red rain coming down red rain coming down over me in the red red sea over me over me red rain

You saw me standing by the old Corner of the main street And the lights are flashing on your window sill All alone ain't much fun So you're looking for the thrill And you know just what it takes and where to go Don't say a prayer for me now Save it 'til the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now Save it 'til the morning after Feel the breeze deep on the inside Look you down into your well If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire Take a chance Like all dreamers can't find another way You don't have to dream it all, just live a day Don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now Save it 'til the morning after Save it 'til the morning after Save it till the morning after Pretty looking road, Try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin Don't ask me why I'll keep my promise Melt the ice And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance But fear is in your soul Some people call it a one night stand But we can call it paradise Don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning after Save it 'til the morning after Save it 'til the morning after Save it 'til the morning after Save it 'til the morning after Save a prayer 'til the morning after
