Thea Gilmore Album

You stirred my natural emotion
You make me feel I'm dirt
And I'm hurt
And if I start a commotion
I'll only end up losing you
And that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

I can't see much of the future
Unless we find out what's to blame
What a shame
And we won't be together much longer
Unless we realise that we are the same

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
Ever fallen in love, in love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

You stirred my natural emotion
You make me feel I'm dirt
And I'm hurt
And if I start a commotion
I'll run the risk of losing you
And that's worse

Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah

Is that you peeking out from that hat?
Hide and seeking behind a drink that's gone flat
Is that you peeking out from that tree?
Hide and seeking from everyone here but me

Your hands are shaking and I know what they did
Hide and seeking they never found you as a kid
Your branch is breaking, you'll find another down town
Hide and seeking, coming crashing to the ground

Well, hide and seeking's for children baby
Now it's hid and sought
Another week and you'll see yours maybe
They treat you like some kinda outlaw

Black night is falling, this is the blues you see
Hide and seeking, father, son and holy me
You speak in parables, you're looking terrible tonight
Hide and seeking, I wonder if you need a light

Well, hide and seeking's for children baby
Now it's hid and sought
Another week and you'll see yours maybe
They treat you like some kinda outlaw

And hide and seeking's for children baby
Now it's hid and sought
Another week and you'll see yours maybe
They treat you like some kinda outlaw

Hide and seeking
Hide and seeking, pa
Hide and seeking
Hide and seeking, ma

This is the blues you see
Hide and seeking

This is the blues we see
Hide and seeking

I see a bad moon rising
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today

Don't go around tonight
‘Cause it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes a-blowing
I know the end is comin' soon
I fear rivers over-flowin'
I hear the voice of rage and ruin

Don't go around tonight
‘Cause it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

Hope you have got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

And don't go around tonight
‘Cause it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

Don't go around tonight,
‘Cause it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
It's on the rise

You know it's generally known
You got everything at home
Kisses out of desperation
Bring you more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close

You bring out your souvenirs
Soak them wet with your tears
You lose your imagination
Out of more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close

You turn red with rage
But act your age
The only thing that you regret
You need more time to forget

Well, you know it's generally known
You got everything at home
Kisses out of desperation
Bring you more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close

You turn red with rage
But act your age
The only thing that you regret
You need more time to forget
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
No, you don't come close
No, you don't come close

Don't call pretty Peggy, she can't hear you no more
Don't leave no message 'round her back door
They say the old laughing lady been here before
She don't keep time, she don't count score

Well, you can't have a cupboard if there ain't no wall
You got to move, got no time left to stall
They say the old laughing lady dropped by to call
And when she leaves, she leaves nothing at all

There's a fever on the freeway, blacks out the night
There's a slipping on the stairway, just don't feel right
And there's a rumbling in the bedroom and a flashing of light
And there's the old laughing lady, everything is all right
Everything is all right
Old laughing lady, everything is all right

I can hear your heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time you smile
And when I come to you that's where I belong
Yet I'm running to you like a river's song

You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

You've got a fine sense of humour when I'm feeling low down
And when I come to you when the sun goes down
You take away my trouble, take away my grief
Take away my heartache in the night like a thief

You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

Yeah, I need you in the daytime
Yeah, I need you in the night
Yeah, I want to throw my arms around you
And kiss you, hug you, kiss you, hug you tight

And when I'm returning from so far away
You give me some sweet lovin' brighten up my day
Yeah, it made me righteous, yeah it made me whole
Yeah, it made me mellow down to my soul

You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

Sitting here in limbo but I know it won't be long
Sitting here in limbo, like a bird without a song
Well they're putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll
Oh yeah, sitting here in limbo, got some time to search my soul
Well they're putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where life will lead me
But I know where I've been
I can't say what life will show me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
You know this girl is moving on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow
Oh, I've been sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go, yeah
They've been putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where life will lead me
But I know where I've been
I can't say what life will show me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
You know this girl, she's moving on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow
Oh yeah, sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go, oh yeah
Well they're been putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on
Oh yeah, they're putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

Sitting in limbo, yeah
sitting in limbo, limbo
Sitting in limbo, yeah

I dreamed I saw you, brother o' mine
Riding on Josef's train
With the men of steel down the long, thin line
Riding on Josef's train
You close your eyes and the engines run
Riding on Josef's train
All the way to Rio in the red, red sun
Riding on Josef's train

When they hear that whistle blow
Some just can't refuse
The meeting time, the greeting time
And the smell of dead men's shoes

And I dreamed I saw you, brother o' mine
Riding on Josef's train
With the men of steel down the long, thin line
Riding on Josef's train
You close your eyes and the engines run
Riding on Josef's train
All the way to Rio in the red, red sun
Riding on Josef's train

Well, I dreamed I met with John Wayne's ghost
Riding on Josef's train
With a peep show queen and a heavenly host
Riding on Josef's train
He was talking to the engineer ringing the bell
Riding on Josef's train
With a smile to the sky as the shadow fell
Riding on Josef's train

Want to see those lanterns burning
In the cities and the towns
Want to check who's on the platform
When October comes back round

And I dreamed I saw you, brother o' mine
Riding on Josef's train
With the men of steel down the long, thin line
Riding on Josef's train
And, oh, my soul when they cross the border
Riding on Josef's train
And, oh, my soul when they give the orders
Riding on Josef's train
Riding, riding
Riding on Josef's train
Riding, riding
Riding on Josef's train
Riding on Josef's train

Once I built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a railroad, now it's done
Brother, can you spare me a dime?

Once I built a tower to the sun
Brake and rivet and line
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Buddy, can you spare me a dime?

Once in khaki suits, boy, we looked swell
Full of that Yankee-Doodle-dum
Then half a million boots went truckin' off to Hell
I was the kid with the drum

Say, don't you remember? You called me "Al"
It was "Al" all the time
Say, don't you remember? I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare me a dime?

Once in khaki suits, boy, we looked swell
Full of that Yankee-Doodle-dum
Then half a million boots went truckin' off to Hell
I was the kid with the drum

Oh, say, don't you remember? You called me "Al"
Then, it was "Al" all the time
Say, don't you remember? I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare me a dime?
Oh, buddy, can you spare me a dime?
Yeah, buddy, can you spare me a dime?

There's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone
I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
And you won't find me singin' on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

And I won't breathe the bracing air when I'm gone
And I can't even worry 'bout my cares when I'm gone
Won't be asked to do my share when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

And I won't be running from the rain when I'm gone
And I can't even suffer from the pain when I'm gone
I can't say who's to praise and who's to blame when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

Won't see the golden of the sun when I'm gone
And the evenings and the mornings will be one when I'm gone
I can't be singing louder than the guns when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

And all my days won't be dances of delight when I'm gone
And the sands will be shifting from my sight when I'm gone
Can't add my name to the fight while I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

I won't be laughing at the lies when I'm gone
And I can't question how or when or why when I'm gone
Can't live proud enough to die when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

And there's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone
I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
You won't find me singin' on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it
I guess I'll have to do it
I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
