Ryan Adams - "Desire"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdVljYP7o08

Two hearts fading, like a flower.
And all this waiting, for the power.
For some answer, to this fire.
Sinking slowly.
The water as higher.
Desire
Desire

With no secrets.
No obsession.
This time I'm speeding with no direction.
Without a reason.
What is this fire?
Burning slowly.
My one and only.
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire

You know me.
You don't mind waiting.
You just can't show me, but God I'm praying,
That you'll find me, and that you'll see me,
That you run and never tire.
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire

Andrew McMahon - "High Dive"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyxvYwCH524

I took the train home, facing backwards
Another hopeless chase
Echo Park, Indian summer
I wrote a new song about your new life
Like steps I retrace
Block letters in your little black notebook, yeah

Flashbacks get me close, I'm almost there

Headlights in the driveway
You stand in the window waiting
The stars are out tonight
One million fires burning
Out there on the high dive
You dance with your headphones on
And I could watch you all night long
Dancing to someone else's song
Oh, dancing to someone else's song
Oh, dancing to someone else's

A black jacket, a blue motorbike
Pass the mission in the moonlight
Teenagers in the alley kissing
Smell of gas burn, saw your street sign
I'm doing eighty in a forty-five
Throwing shadows you could hear if you listen, yeah

Flashbacks get me close, I'm almost there

Headlights in the driveway
You stand in the window waiting
The stars are out tonight
One million fires burning
Out there on the high dive
You dance with your headphones on
And I could watch you all night long
Dancing to someone else's song
Oh, dancing to someone else's song
Oh, dancing to someone else's

Flashbacks get me close
But I was staring at someone else's

Headlights in your driveway
You stand in the window waiting
The stars are out tonight
One million fires burning
Meet me on the high dive
You'll dance with your headphones on
So I could watch you all night long
Dancing to someone else's song (song)
Oh, dancing to someone else's song (song)
Oh, dancing to someone else's song
Someone else's song, to someone else's song
To someone else's, someone else's, someone else's song

Andrew McMahon - "Cecilia And The Satellite"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_zY_jSVXSU

I lock myself in a hotel room,
Been waiting all night for the walls to move.
I've loved some girls that I barely knew.
I've made some friends, and I've lost some too.
Crashed my car, I was 17,
My mother in the seat riding next to me.
The things I've learned from a broken mirror,
How a face can change when a heart knows fear.
Through all the things my eyes have seen,
The best by far is you.

If I could fly,
Then I would know,
What life looks like from up above and down below.
I'd keep you safe,
I'd keep you dry,
Don't be afraid Cecilia.
I'm the satellite,
And you're the sky.

Oh,Oh etc.

I've café crawled through Amsterdam.
I've been around the world with a punk rock band,
And I've seen London, and I've played Japan.
I've been knocked down, I got up again.
For all the places I have been,
I'm no place without you.
If I could fly,
Then I would know,
What life looks like from up above and down below.
I'd keep you safe,
I'd keep you dry,
Don't be afraid Cecilia.
I'm the satellite,
And you're the sky.

Oh,Oh etc.

I'm the satellite,
And you're the sky.

For all the things my hands have held,
The best by far is you.
If I could fly,
Then I would know,
What life looks like from up above and down below.
I'd keep you safe,
I'd keep you dry,
Don't be afraid Cecilia.
I'm the satellite,
And you're the sky.

Oh,Oh etc.

And you're the sky

Oh,Oh etc.

I'm the satellite
And you're the sky

Oh,Oh etc.

And you're the sky.

And you're the sky.

Terry Callier - "Ordinary Joe'



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0YOb5IC1js

And for my opening line
I'm not trying to indicate my state of mind.
I turn you on,
I tell you that I'm laughing just to keep from crying
Pretty music when you hear it,
Keep on trying to get near it.
A little rhythm for your spirit
Oh but that's what it's for
Come on in, here's the door

And I've seen a sparrow get high
And waste his time in the sky
He thinks it's easy to fly
He's just a little bit freer than I

Now here's a mystery
And maybe you can help to make it clear to me
When you're fast asleep
Then what is it that's lighting up the dreams you see
Only your tears can't conceal it
And only your prayers may not reveal it
You've got soul so you can feel it
And when you make the scene
Well you know what I mean

Hey, I've seen a sparrow get high
And waste his time in the sky
He thinks it's easy to fly
He's just a little bit freer than I

Down here on the ground
When you find folks are giving you the runaround
Keep your game uptight
And if you must just take your secrets underground
Now politicians are trying to speech you
Mad color watchers are trying to teach you
Very few will really try to reach you
If you're lost in a stack
That's OK, come all black

Now I'd be the last to deny
That I'm just an average guy
And don't you know each little bird in the sky
Is just a little bit freer than I

Hey ordinary Joe
Although they say you're just a lazy so-and-so
What they think is real
Is nothing but an animated puppet show
So don't let time and space confuse you
And don't let name and form abuse you
Let that Big Joe Williams blues you
In the light of the sun you can see how they burn

Oh I've seen a sparrow get high
And waste his time in the sky
He thinks it's easy to fly
He's just a little bit freer than i
