Meadowland Lyrics Long, Long Legs Well my baby’s got those long, long legs And he’s dancing in his blue, blue jeans Just a singing and a dancing down the road He’s got an old guitar strung on his back And he’s moving down the railroad tracks And where’s he’s goin ain’t nobody knows Watch out for the way he smiles when he’s reaching out across those miles Watch out for the way he likes to move Well he’ll take your heart and turn it round then he’ll move on to the next small town and there ain’t a single thing that you can do Well my baby’s got a hold on me when he’s sipping on my morning tea Just a saying things he really shouldn’t say But I don’t care I like his style and the pretty way he hides his smile No I wouldn’t have him any other way Watch out for his railroad flat and as long as you’re aware of that You’ll get everything you ever need Just remember he belongs to me I’ve been loving him long before you seen him But I don’t blame you for trying yes indeed Hey baby are you coming with me are you coming with me down the road hey baby cause well you’re miss me you’re gonna miss me when I go Oh . . . Well I’m standing by the window pane just a waiting for that old black train till I hear that sweet old whistle in the air I got my hair down and my red dress on And I loaded up my daddy’s gun And there’s nothing left to do but stand right here Watch out for the way he lies underneath those pale blue summer skies Watch out for the wind blowing in his hair He’ll say that your’e his only love but believe me he’s still thinking of the other one who’s standing over there Hey baby are you coming with me are you coming with me down the road hey baby cause well you’re miss me you’re gonna miss me when I go Oh . . . Well my baby’s got those long, long legs And he’s dancing in those blue, blue jeans Roll Along With You When you’re near I feel it so clear that finally it’s gonna be a good year and I’m gonna win a million bucks this time . . . I can’t hide it’s totally useless, you can see that I’m just a big mess, beaming like a fool, it’s verified That all I wanna do is find out all that you are, walk down on the sidewalk with you holding my arm, huddle in your jacket while the morning cries dew and just roll with you Thinking how it’s totally different you and I will never be rejects The proof is in the Kodak on my wall Quite a change I’ve been looking inward at the things that recently occurred and if you need more time then I can stall But all I wanna do is be there when you feel down I can be your secret you can plural my noun hold you when you’re dreaming and the world is a zoo and just roll with you Roll along with you Break out of the prison we knew roll just like a freight train saying adieu and just roll along with you Roll along with you You’re so good you gave me your pillow even though I turned off your crime show baby love like that is hard to find To me you’re like a beautiful diamond from inside you’ll always be shining it’s incredible and I reply that all I wanna do baby make you feel good be the girl you long for though I doubt that I could and if you said forever, well that’s something to chew just roll along with you Roll along with you Break out of the prison we knew roll just like a freight train saying adieu and just roll along with you Roll along with you When you said you couldn’t be near me I just sat there watching the tv When you said you’re joking I just cried Why do feelings feel like a sickness bring you down make you feel helpless raise you up until you’re in the sky? All I wanna do is be there all of the time Take bites form your sandwich while you’re sipping my wine Stand out on the door step while you’re finding your shoes Roll with you Roll along with you Meadowland When you gonna hold my hand and take me to the isles of the Meadowland If you’re waiting for the sun don’t forget that clouds might come I’m gonna fly to the top of the bottom I’m gonna run down the middle of the road You’ll understand someday oh yes you will Oh yes you will When you say out loud all those little things you kept underneath the shroud? And from here I got no stand just to love this poor old man I’m gonna fly to the top of the bottom I’m gonna run down the middle of the road You’ll understand someday oh yes you will Oh yes you will ah ah ah It don’t have to be so hard love ain’t like an avant-garde And just take me as I am standing here with no special plan I’m gonna fly to the top of the bottom I’m gonna run down the middle of the road You’ll understand someday oh yes you will Oh yes you will Oh yes you will Oh yes you will Yes you will . . . Windswept Windswept all alone far away form my home Feels like I’ve been without you for all my life but I won’t stop now till I’m by your side Fallin down bound and chained just like Judas I am stained Feels like I’m been a runnin for all my life but I won’t stop now till I see you smile Don’t stop don’t stop breaking on me Because the father you go the closer I want to be Don’t go riding trains Don’t go riding trains Don’t go riiiiiding trains Started out with no coat wind was blowin damn I was cold feels like I got a jet plane inside my mind but I won’t stop now and I won’t stop trying guitar- ooh, ooh, ah Dont stop don’t stop breaking on me because the father you go the closer I want to be Don’t go riding trains don’t go riding trains don’t go riiiiiding trains Bells are ringing clear and plain everything just stays the same feels like I’ve been a runnin for all my life feels like I’ve been a runnin and I don’t know why Feels like you’ll leave without me and there ain’t no time but I won’t stop now . . . I’m Gonna I’m gonna lie down in new sheets today and pull the wool up over my eyes I’ve got about a million words to say, but I’ll be quiet . . . I’ve been a stranger in this great big world, and there’s so much I need to know I need somebody to lie next to me, Wherever I go . . . You’d better make up your mind This girl is sailing away And when you wake up you’ll find It’s too late Cause it’s been a long day it’s been a long year Maybe someday, baby we can get there Anytime that you wanna go I’ve been waiting so long, not waiting right behind you Maybe someday, baby I can find you Maybe down where the river flows Well, a girl’s gotta make her mind up And I’m gonna go And when I tell you there’s no time to waste--no time to waste There’s still some things that we can find And when I tell you it’ll be okay, it’ll be okay Boy, I’m gonna make you mine, and Boy, I’m gonna make you mine Yeah Mine, yeah Oooh . . . 10,000 Horses The flowers are falling, it’s raining outside the letter I sent you won’t get there in time I need 10,000 horses with me tonight I said I don’t love you and I guess you believed and now that I lost you oh, how that I grieve I need 10,000 horses to make it right I’m strong but my heart must be stronger not simple enough to surmise that one can’t be one any longer unless you are the one by my side I need 10,000 horses Tryin’ to get to you Every time I think I can erase the memories that are mine then I am reminded of the place, reminded of the time when everything was shining and the streets were paved with gold, the sweetness of a dream: you lying next to me, like a jet plane flying, all those dreams just fade away, and now I’m trying to get to you, babe, trying to get to you trying to get to you, babe trying to get to you Everybody's saying all these things, that they don’t even know it seems to me the world would find more grace if they kept their mouths closed ‘Cause when it come to heartache it’s between you, God, and me and just ignore the mouths who speak, they cry “discrepancy” I’d like to have a moment when you ain’t ten hearts away oh now I’m trying to get to you babe, trying to get next to you trying to get to you babe trying to get next to you I think it’s time for us to put away all the truths we signed they never really did us any good, once they were entwined but what’s the truth, you tell me, is it lying in the sun, or is it in a tower locked so far away? Is it in the morning when I wake to find you gone? oh I’m trying to get to you babe trying to get to you trying to get to you babe trying to get to you trying to get to you trying to get to you Scarlett Cardinal Once there was a little man who said he’d lost his way walking in his broken shoes beneath a sky of clay, “All I want to do is fly away.” I told him of the times I’ve had just running in this race and every time I’ve fallen down then woken up to grace, “All I want to do is fly away, oh, all I want to do is fly away.” I want to fly like a scarlett cardinal High in the sky like a scarlett cardinal He handed me some poetry, I hurled it in the sky we watched the letters fall apart then flutter in reply, “All I want to do is fly away.” I want to fly like a scarlett cardinal High in the sky like a scarlett cardinal Fare Thee Well Fare the well, alas forever All our debts we’ve come to sever If you see me, look away and if you hear me, do not say That I was bleeding and you don’t care Fare thee well my Bonaparte Josephine has lost her heart Warring through these words we speak Waterloo has sprung a leap and I am drowning but you’re not here I was dreaming and started to come down Like a feather from your wings to the ground Fare thee well my fairy knight Pegasus won’t crash tonight Our friends ask me, ‘Where’s he gone, with his wings so gold and long?” And I just tell them that he’s far away, but near and I’ll be dreaming down here . . . down here . . . down here . . . |
