Lyric Of The Week

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep 
Starts when you’re always afraid 
Step out of line, the men come and take you away 

We better stop 
Hey, what’s that sound? 
Everybody look, what’s going down?

There is a road, no simple highway 
Between the dawn and the dark of night 
And if you go, no one may follow 
That path is for your steps alone 

Ripple in still water 
When there is no pebble tossed 
Nor wind to blow 

You who choose to lead must follow 
But if you fall you fall alone 
If you should stand then who’s to guide you? 
If I knew the way I would take you home

Started out on burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said stand behind me when the game got a little too rough
But the joke was on me, there was no one even there to call my bluff
Goin’ back to New York City, I do believe I’ve had enough

(Lyrics transcribed as sung at this performance)

Should have seen it coming
Fire in the sky
Oh, water’s all around us
No room on the ark this time

You let me kiss you on Broadway in a black Cadillac
And it was good while it lasted

Last night I didn’t sleep at all
I found another empty wall
And I couldn’t get past it

And for a minute in the afternoon
I almost didn’t think of you
It was good while it lasted

Now I’m blind with no tomorrows in my eyes 
Said, the harsh sting of sorrow is one I recognize 
The truth of the matter is just one you can’t disguise 
I’ve been so lost on my own since the day you said goodbye

When the world
is a hard place to live
Everything feels like
it’s all take and no give

Mountains are high
you’re too weak to climb
Whoa, whoa, darlin’
just keep my heart in mind

Keep my heart in mind, darlin’
keep my heart in mind
My love for you is deep and true
so keep my heart in mind
