my stupid short
hall swimming flight
engulfed with my
magic light
days of years
years of days
to go
and everythings upside down
and down around we go
but still my thoughts are surrendered
bang and light
that's all they do
beings like gods
there are too few
holding on to the last dance tonight
and everythings upside down
and down around we go
but still my thoughts are surrendered
pale face in a beach scent
piers of nothing remain cement
days of school
learning how
to smile
and everythings upside down
and down around we go
but still my thoughts are surrendered
bang and light
that's all they do
beings like gods
there are too few
holding on to the last dance tonight
and everythings upside down
and down around we go
but still my thoughts are surrenderedby Townes Van Zandt
Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine
Though you and I both know it's only the warm glow of wine
That's got you to feeling this way, but I don't care,
I want you to stay
and hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
Children are dancin', the gamblers are chancin' their all
The window's accusing the door of abusing the wall
But who cares what the night watchmen say
The stage has been set for the play
Hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on on to the sky
The wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me ask why
The poets are demanding their pay
They've left me with nothin' to say
'cept hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
Just hold me and tell me that you'll be here to love me today
