The Depression
It ruined us
It ruined us
It ruined us
The Depression
It ruined us
It ruined us
It ruined us
Oh Marilyn
Everything
When the market crashed
Our hopes were dashed
We lost everything
Everything
When the winter came
We lost everything
Couldn't afford to stay
Oh Marilyn
We’d really like to keep you in
Oh Marilyn
We’d really like to keep you in
Memories
Disparate memories
Of New York
In the 1930s
Memories
Of the frozen lake
And the way we tried
To keep her safe
Oh Marilyn
There was no one left at home to let you in
Oh Marilyn
There was no one left at home to let you in

I want to hold you
But every time I try
Something keeps you
Out of reach
I want to love you
But every time I try
Something keeps
Love away
And I can feel it
So love me right now
Though it won't last
Girl don't make me try
'Cause I'll lose you forever
Every time
Every time
But every time I try
To put our love out
Like a fire
You keep me in your reach
And every time I try
To throw away my desire
You hold me
So close
And I can feel it
So love me right now
Though it won't last
Girl don't make me try
'Cause I'll lose you forever
Every time
Every time
There must be a way
To feel like I used to feel before
Before it all went wrong
There must be a way
To feel like I used to feel before
Before it all went wrong
Before I thought that love
Could never be
Before I felt your body
Next to me
There must be a way
To get back to where we were before
Before it all went wrong
There must be a way
To get back to where we were before
Before it all went wrong
Before I thought that love
Could never be
Before I felt your body
Next to me

Ten Nights
09:14
|

|
Storybook fable is ending
As ten angels are descending
I forget that you
Are my only friend
Love is my only devotion
Ten little steps to the ocean
Ten nights to decide
Whether I can live alone
Ten nights all alone
Praying you haven’t gone
I can’t stop love
I can’t erase
What’s been written down
Storybook fable is ending
As ten angels are descending
I forget that you
Are my only friend

I see
The lie through the seal
Lie through the seal
Tonight
Through the seal
I’ll make the lie my own
Mary won’t know
This time
White fields
Of rain over me
Rain over me
In time
White seas
This claim distills me
Mary won’t drink
This wine

I don't want to fight your war tonight
Put away all your guns and knives
I am waiting
Lorelei
I don't want to see the streets tonight
I am so weary and so tired
I am waiting
Lorelei
Violence holds
The scene below
People act out their paces
Go through their places
Burn all the traces
We alone
Carry forth
We are two so despite what you do
Despite what you see
Don't give up
We're gonna be free
Lorelei

Walked away
Released from all my crimes
Walked away
Released from all my crimes
But I could never hide
What I kept inside
Walked away
Released from all my sins
Walked away
Released from all my sins
But the cruelest thing
Was all my suffering
When I held you that night
I knew it felt so right
I knew it felt so right
Walked away
Released from all my crimes
Walked away
Released from all my crimes
But I could never hide
What I kept inside

Ray Of Light

Ray of light
I never see
Through the passing clouds
Or through the trees
When you left
Into the pouring rain
I knew I’d never
See you again
Ray of light
Won’t shine through
When love is through
When love is through
Late one night
I heard you at my door
But I pretended like
I wasn’t home
Please forgive
Me for what I’ve done
But you know I would’ve done it
Like I did before
Ray of light
Won’t shine through
What can I do
What can I do
Ray of light
I never see
Through the passing clouds
Or through the trees
When you left
Into the pouring rain
I knew I’d never
See you again
Ray of light
Won’t shine through
When love is through
When love is through

Battle Of Saratoga
05:46
|

|
Three o’clock in the morning
Snowing and I can’t go home
Coming down in Kingston
Christmas Eve the roads are closed
Just like Walter Gibson
Knowing what the Shadow knows
And on their way
From Saratoga
They burned our fields
They burned our homes
Candy shop quartet
Free coffee and chocolate
Dreaming of the pine needles
Waiting for my next set
Hallucinating wonders
Drying out like Benedict
And on their way
From Saratoga
They burned our fields
They burned our homes
They burned our homes
They burned our homes
Commander of the troops
I tried to capture Bemis Heights
Talking in tongues
They couldn’t get to me on time
Forced to retreat
I turned and ran to safety in the pines
And on their way
From Saratoga
They burned our fields
They burned our homes

From the dust
I come
To the the dust
I return
From the dust
I come
To the the dust
I return
From the roofs
I cry
From the roofs
I cry
From the roofs
I cry
From the roofs
I cry
From the dust
I come
To the the dust
I return
From the dust
I come
To the the dust
I return
--
Take me to the blue line
Take me to the blue line
Lift me up
Drop me down
Into the middle
Of the cold, cold ground
She was born
In a diamond shack
Three wise men
Said she's coming back
Take me to the blue line
Take me to the blue line
Through purple skies
And seas of red
Silver raindrops
Fill with dread
She’s so lean
From a golden hue
Bursting forth
Coming back to you
Take me to the blue line
Take me to the blue line

Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
Jesus, oh Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
My love wasn’t true
Now all I have is you
Jesus, oh Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
Jesus
If you hear my last breath
Don't leave me here
Left to die a lonely death
I know I have sinned
But lord I’m suffering
Jesus, oh Jesus
If you hear my last breath
Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
Jesus, oh Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
My love wasn’t true
Now all I have is you
Jesus, oh Jesus
I don’t want to die alone
All my troubles
All my pain
Will leave me once again
