The Sleepy Jackson Album

Don't always dream for what you want
But I love to watch good dancers talk
My heart is stronger than you all
But I love to watch good dancers talk
The war's good and I'm so tired
When you think with your mind you've got a place to go now.

You're so cold that you dont even know where
Your love is so cold, you're frozen in love yeah
Your house has got one foot in the graveyard, dead alone.
You're dead alone.

You're so cold that you wont even know why
Your love is so cold, you're frozen in love yeah
Your family's got one foot in the graveyard, dead alone.
You're dead alone.

These roads,
They sing like bats i know.
Their eyes are tightly sewn.
Like some priests i know.

Ah yeah
The walking regime is always back in scene
I know, I was only 17
You've lost an eye, you're caught in the graveyard, you're dead alone.

What you want?
Is this what you want?
Oh come on, is this what you want?

I've been drinking and I been thinking of you
Now i know i know the snow will let me know
I been trying but i've been lying to you
Now i know i know the time will get me through
But anytime i let you know it's just a time to let me know what it's all about
rain falls for wind
you're only ever on my mind
you never ever have the time when i see you fall

This will take some time i know and it's going slow i know
You miss my friends more than you'll ever miss me
And it's through if you can't see, all the things we're going through
It'll take a while, take a while with you
When you know i'm down and i'm in your town, you stay at home you stay alone
I said i don't know how to live my life
The sun comes in the mornign and it waits at night and i've got the one the only one i know

It's true,
I never had no fun with you,
Now there's acid in my heart.

It's time,
to get you off my mind,
'Cause there's acid in my heart.

But I need you...

I know you,
I know you get quiet 'cause you need me now,

I need you,
You know I'm getting tired 'cause I need you now,
Would you tell this rhythm the truth?

I need you...

It's true,
I never had no son with you,
Now there's acid in my heart.

And it's fine,
To get you off my mind,
'Cause there's acid in my heart.

And I need you...

fill me with apples
i am lovesick
like columns of smoke
your love is as strong as death
but we don't work for this
we don't grow round here
our minds are dead
they have passed their time
i feel like cement
and thee weighty tears of them
show and only pronounce loud cries
fill their faces with farms
make them become a pregnant man
and women of good spirit

[No lyrics]

Keep your mouth clean,
let the lawless be put to silence.
Lord i dont know how it has come to this.

Keep your mind clean,
let the lawless be put to silence.
Lord i dont know how it has come to this.

Girl its a long time when youre runnin'.

Keep your mouth clean,
let the lawless be put to silence.
Lord i dont know how it has come to this.

I dont know why i didnt try with you,
Now the moon is bleeding dry.
The sun is weak alight.
How did it come to this?

Girl its a long time when youre runnin'.
Girl its a long time without loving,

Don't cry my morning bird
Don't cry right now
The lord is sitting in the sky waiting for all of us, now
So don't cry right now

Lonely lies can be alone
Just take your lies and be alone from here
Lonely eyes can be alone
Take your lies and be alone from here
Don't you know that it's tearing me up inside
Don't you know that it happens all the time
This love is only on my mind
When I get to the lake and I find it's you

Old dirt farmer
Varsity baseball player
A texas nomad and a fisherman
I lost my mind
it was blown in the wind and I did all of this for you
I'd sleep in the winter
have fun in the summer
Tonight it's gone
Wont you stand by the plan?
Wont you stand by your man?

you're like the mourning rain
i never ever have to say
when i go away
cause you're like the mourning rain
when i don't see you
it reminds me of the mourning rain
dance for everyone on your mind
you never ever have the time
when i go away
cause you're like the mourning rain
when i don't see you
it reminds me of the mourning rain
you're like the mourning rain
i never ever have to say
when i go away
cause you're like the mourning rain
when i don't see you
it reminds me of the mourning rain
