The sky doesn't care what my poor heart wants
And the desert can't hear my cries
The moon doesn't mind that I'm left all alone
And she's gone
Gone

Mine Forever
If you ever want to see my face again, I want to know
If you ever get lonely, please let me know
If you never want to see my face again, I'll understand
If forever gets lonely, take my hand
Don't laugh, you'll make me cry
So long, good luck, goodbye
I know we will be together
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
If you're ever gonna leave this place, don't wait, it's time to go
If you really wanna stay, I'll go alone
If you tell me where to meet then there I'll wait 'til I turn to bones
Oh, we really should have left here long ago
Love is strange, I can't sleep without you
Maybe in the grave I can dream about you
Everybody lies, but I'll never doubt you
I don't wanna die, but I can't live without you
I'm much too young to die
So long, my love, goodbye
We will always be together
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
If you ever want to see my face again, I want to know
If you never want to see my face again, I want to know
If you ever get lonely, please let me know
If you never want to see my face again, I'll understand
If forever gets lonely, take my hand
Don't laugh, you'll make me cry
So long, good luck, goodbye
I know we will be together
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
If you're ever gonna leave this place, don't wait, it's time to go
If you really wanna stay, I'll go alone
If you tell me where to meet then there I'll wait 'til I turn to bones
Oh, we really should have left here long ago
Love is strange, I can't sleep without you
Maybe in the grave I can dream about you
Everybody lies, but I'll never doubt you
I don't wanna die, but I can't live without you
I'm much too young to die
So long, my love, goodbye
We will always be together
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
In my mind you're mine forever
If you ever want to see my face again, I want to know
If you never want to see my face again, I want to know

Love Me Like You Used To
I've been lost before and I'm lost again I guess
But I never lost this feeling or this pounding in my chest
I have traveled many miles, I don't wanna walk no more
Every road and every highway led me right back to your door
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
I dream most every night that I never left you
Do you love me anymore?
Does my memory remain
Lord I know I've made mistakes but I am different now, I've changed
When I open up the door will you know me from the rest?
Will you let me lay beside you?
Will you grant me my request?
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
I swear this time around I'm gonna stay
When I dream, I only dream of you
I curse the goddamn day that I went and left you
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
I don't want to lose ya
I would change it if I could
I can't erase the day that I went and left you
But I never lost this feeling or this pounding in my chest
I have traveled many miles, I don't wanna walk no more
Every road and every highway led me right back to your door
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
I dream most every night that I never left you
Do you love me anymore?
Does my memory remain
Lord I know I've made mistakes but I am different now, I've changed
When I open up the door will you know me from the rest?
Will you let me lay beside you?
Will you grant me my request?
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
I swear this time around I'm gonna stay
When I dream, I only dream of you
I curse the goddamn day that I went and left you
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
Love me if you choose to
Though you say that I'm no good
Love me like you used to
And I'll praise you like I should
I don't want to lose ya
I would change it if I could
I can't erase the day that I went and left you

Meet Me In The City
Come on and meet me in the city
Get your courage up and take the highway down
Put on the dress you wore the night we met
You and me are gonna paint this town
We'll go out and seize the night
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Go home and say goodbye forever
Tell you ball and chain you won't be back around
Forget the life you had and don't look back
Get your courage up and drink this down
If I was so wrong tell me why does it feel so right?
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Am I not the one you wanna hold forever?
Get your courage up and take the highway down
Put on the dress you wore the night we met
You and me are gonna paint this town
We'll go out and seize the night
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Go home and say goodbye forever
Tell you ball and chain you won't be back around
Forget the life you had and don't look back
Get your courage up and drink this down
If I was so wrong tell me why does it feel so right?
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Meet me in the city, baby
Am I not the one you're dreamin' of my angel?
Am I not the one you wanna hold forever?

Long Lost
Leave me where the light pours down through the trees like rain
Let it wash over me like a flood, let it ease my pain
Let it drown me
For a while, I was held by the myth of the Lost Highway
In the spell of the night and the lights of the Great White Way
I ain't lonely, are you?
Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever
I'll be running through the forest dancing in the fields like this
Leave me where the moonbeams carve through the leaves like blades
Lay me in the tall-grown grass in a shallow grave
Let it have me
I've got a place in the world and I found out where
Out in the night all alone in the Way Out There
I ain't lonely, I'm long lost
Say goodbye
Long lost
Out of my mind
Long lost
Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever
I'll be running through the forest, dancing in the fields like this
Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever
I'll be running through the forest, dancing in the fields like this
Long lost
Long lost
Long lost
Let it wash over me like a flood, let it ease my pain
Let it drown me
For a while, I was held by the myth of the Lost Highway
In the spell of the night and the lights of the Great White Way
I ain't lonely, are you?
Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever
I'll be running through the forest dancing in the fields like this
Leave me where the moonbeams carve through the leaves like blades
Lay me in the tall-grown grass in a shallow grave
Let it have me
I've got a place in the world and I found out where
Out in the night all alone in the Way Out There
I ain't lonely, I'm long lost
Say goodbye
Long lost

Long lost
Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever

Send me to the mountains, let me go free forever

Twenty Long Years
I have a tale or two to tell you
But the booze just makes me slow
Oh I could rack my brain remembering
But I guess maybe I'll just go
There's a method to my madness
There's a secret to this town
How there's a reason why I'm still livin' here
Though I can't think of it right now
I made a promise when I left for the coast
Twenty long years ago
I made a life out of chasin' a ghost
Twenty years takes its toll, oh
I got along for a while I guess
But it took everything I had
I got to find a way out of this mess
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
I have a thought or two to share with you
But the dope tends to cloud my mind
I now destroyed my health searching for myself
But there ain't nothing there to find
There's a debt or two I owe you
But the gambling left me poor
I put up my name in the sacred game
And forgot what I was playing for
I made a promise when I left for the coast
Twenty long years ago
I made a life out of chasin' a ghost
Twenty years takes its toll, oh
I got along for a while I guess
But it took everything I had
I got to find a way out of this mess
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
I got to find a way out of this mess
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
I got to find a way out of this mess
I went lookin' and it drove me mad
I got to find a way out of this mess
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
I got to find a way out of this mess
I ain't never seen you look so sad, yeah
I got to find a way out of this mess
I got to find a way out of this mess
But the booze just makes me slow
Oh I could rack my brain remembering
But I guess maybe I'll just go
There's a method to my madness
There's a secret to this town
How there's a reason why I'm still livin' here
Though I can't think of it right now

Oh, where did the time go?
Oh, where did the time go?
It's been delightful
May you laugh and sing your life full
May you learn the reasons why
May you live until you die

Not Dead Yet
All messed up with nowhere to go
I stare at myself in the mirror alone
It's hard to make friends when you're half in the grave
But I ain't dead yet
And I've got something to say
Oh-ohh, yeah
You got holes in your clothes
Booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh
There's a stranger in my eyes again
I swear to God I don't know him
You're tired of me
I'm tired of you
So turn around and leave it to myself
Oh-ohh, yeah
You got holes in your clothes
And booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh
I've been out way too long
Heading right for the edge
If she asks about me
Tell her I'm not dead yet
You got holes in your clothes
Booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh
I stare at myself in the mirror alone
It's hard to make friends when you're half in the grave
But I ain't dead yet
And I've got something to say
Oh-ohh, yeah
You got holes in your clothes
Booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh
There's a stranger in my eyes again
I swear to God I don't know him
You're tired of me
I'm tired of you
So turn around and leave it to myself
Oh-ohh, yeah
You got holes in your clothes
And booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh
I've been out way too long
Heading right for the edge
If she asks about me
Tell her I'm not dead yet
You got holes in your clothes
Booze on your breath
You look like hell
And you smell like death
Oh-ohh

I Lied
I swore that I'd become a better man for you and I tried
Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow
I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you but it died
Told you I could never love somebody else but I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
I told you I'd be coming back again for you but I'm not
Going way out where the world will never find me
I made a claim that I would dance until we're bones with my bride
Told you I would never leave you all alone but I lied
I read your letter in the morning by the lake and I cried
They were tears of joy, my chains are finally broken
I made a vow to stand beside you 'til the day that I die
Told you I could never live without your love but I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow
I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you but it died
Told you I could never love somebody else but I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
I told you I'd be coming back again for you but I'm not
Going way out where the world will never find me
I made a claim that I would dance until we're bones with my bride
Told you I would never leave you all alone but I lied
I read your letter in the morning by the lake and I cried
They were tears of joy, my chains are finally broken
I made a vow to stand beside you 'til the day that I die
Told you I could never live without your love but I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied
Mmm, I lied

What Do It Mean
So much to say, but my words mean nothing
A life spent talking when my epitaph would do
Wasting my days with my mind on the future
And my past like a chain that won't ever let me go
Where would I go and would a lone soul miss me?
If I leave in the night I'll only be running
With the weight of the world at the tips of my fingers
A long lost soul in the wilderness alone
All of the joy I've known
The ways I've grown
The loves I've shown my heart to
I'm gonna get it together, oh oh oh and live forever
And live forever
Day after day, oh, the world keeps turning
The stars in the sky above us keep burnin'
But it isn't for you, and it ain't for me neither
Try though I might, I was never a believer
Taking it slow, but it all goes quickly
The time that it takes is all I'll take with me
So I'm saving it up just to go out and spend it
Gonna fly through my life 'til I crash into the ending
All of the joy I've known
The ways I've grown
The loves I've shown my heart to
I'm gonna get it together, oh oh oh and live forever
I'll make a deal with the devil, oh oh oh and live forever and I don't think, why?
I don't know why
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
What does it mean if it all means nothing?
Thank you, thank you, thank you, folks
It's been delightful
So long, good luck, goodbye
Until next time
May you live until you die
A life spent talking when my epitaph would do
Wasting my days with my mind on the future
And my past like a chain that won't ever let me go
Where would I go and would a lone soul miss me?
If I leave in the night I'll only be running
With the weight of the world at the tips of my fingers
A long lost soul in the wilderness alone
All of the joy I've known
The ways I've grown
The loves I've shown my heart to
I'm gonna get it together, oh oh oh and live forever
And live forever
Day after day, oh, the world keeps turning
The stars in the sky above us keep burnin'
But it isn't for you, and it ain't for me neither
Try though I might, I was never a believer
Taking it slow, but it all goes quickly
