1. _ Stay
We were walking
Just the other day
It was so hot outside
You could fry an egg
Remember you were talking
I watched as sweat ran down your face
Reached up and caught it at your chin
Licked my fingertip
Wasting time
Let the hours roll by
Doing nothing for the fun
Little taste of the good life
Whether right or wrong
Makes us want to stay, stay, stay
For awhile
Later on the sun began to fade
Then the clouds rolled over our heads
And it began to rain
Oh we were dancing mouths open
Splashing tongue taste
For a moment this good time would never end
You and me
You and me
Just wasting time
I was kissing you
You were kissing me love
From good day into a moonlight
Now a night so fine
Makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
Wasting time
I shall miss these things
When it all rolls by
What a day
Wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
Hey love
Oh just groping you
Rolling in the mud
Stay a while
Come on love
Wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile

Live at luther college
Intros/outros: n/a
Dave matthews reveals that this song was written around the time he was
Undergoing a messy split over money with his mentor, ross hoffman. it was
Originally titled "police" or "41 police."
Come and see
I swear by now i'm playing time
I against my troubles
I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while i'm
In the front
The play on time is won
But the difficulty is coming here
I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I wont tell you to stay
But i'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Remember when i used to play for
All of the loneliness that nobody
Notice now
I'm begging slow i'm coming here
Only waiting i wanted to stay
I wanted to play
I wanted to love you
I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way
I'm coming waltzing back and moving into your head
Please, i wouldn't pass this by
I would take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why wont you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
Why wont you run
In the rain and play
Let the tears splash all over you

4. _ #36
yeah, yeah i scream...
With you on my mind so heavy and so hard
I don't know quite everything
You make me think of a better thing...
Better things to fill my day with
But they don't mean to go
Please don't be too bad with me, god
Please don't be too good...
Let some women's light, women's light
Chain my hands with me singing...
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Whoa, whoa, sooner there
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Only the brave
Hani hani, come and dance for me
(feeling the night)
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Lead me back home to life
You made heaven turn to dirt
And dirt turn to dance on
Heaven come my way
Baby surely do
Maybe some moonlight
Maybe some, baby surely do
Maybe some moonlight
Say this say this...
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Underneath the moonlight
Hani hani come and dance for me
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Come on, come on go
Hani hani, come and dance for me
Give it back, give it back....
Oh man, i can't talk
A man was tall and once tore a piece of freedom for us all
When, then, you least expect it
Man can cut from of his own heart
For us all, that man
Don't believe it, oh yeah....
God, two men slice and dice each other up in his place
They don't believe it...
Well leave it
Leave it lying, leave it lying, leave it lying
Got me singing
Hani hani, come and dance for me

5. _ #40
tables turned again
And you my friend
You and i face each other
Oh time and time out
I know it's sometimes hard
But knowing just oh
That we will get along
'til we are old and gray
And doubled up
We're doubled up, we'll sit
And laugh of times were hard
And laugh of times
When we thought
All it would end, it all was over
Then again
And know that i'm your rich rain
And to leave you out, i'll die
Oh my friend
It will be you untill the end with me
Always
Always...

6. _ Rapunzel
Ha, open wide
All so good i'll eat you
Take me for a ride
In your sweet delicious,
Perfect little mouth
There upon i linger
You will have no doubt
I'll do my best for you i'll do
Love...
Let's stop to get it going
Lost myself just thinking
'bout the two of us
From each other drinking
Begin with the lips
Fingertips and kissing
Turn me inside out
I do my best for you
Up and down we go
From the top you push me
This is such a thrill
Lost in love and dancing
Shake your tamborine
You blow my head open
Of one thing for sure
I do my best for you i'll do
For you i would crawl
Through the darkest dungeon
Climb the castle wall
If your my rapunzel
You let down your hair
Right in through your window
Good they locked the door cuz
I'll do my best for you i'll do
I think the world of you
All of my heart i do
Blood through my veins for you
You alone have all of me
I give my world to you
To you i'll be true
From you my strength is full
To carry your burdens too
Too good to be real
Smell of something cooking
You my soul to steal
Food of love we're filling
What you've given me
For it there is no measure
Of one thing i am sure
I'll give my best for you
Hip lock up so tight
You know drive me crazy
Crazy is alright
With you lookin' at me
You make me feel high
Every single thing you do to me
Is like i'm drunk
Given me given me
The shiver

7. _ Two Step
Say, my love, i came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what i'm seeking
Love, you drive me to distraction
Hey my love do you believe that we might last a thousand years
Or more if not for this,
Our flesh and blood
It ties you and me right up
Tie me down
Celebrate we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
These things we cannot change
Hey, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and love,you quench my mind
Celebrate we will
Because life is short but
Sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
The things we cannot
Celebrate, you and me, climbing two by two, to be sure
These days continue, things we cannot change
Oh, my love i came to you
With best intentions
You laid down and gave to me
Just what i'm seeking
Celebrate we will
Because life is short
But sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change...
Things we cannot change

9. _ Warehouse
See i'm leaving
This warehouse frightens me
Has me tied up in knots
Can't rest for a moment
Soom i'm going i'm slippin' slow away
Hoping to find something better than
I've got inside of here
The warehouse slips away
Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beginning
You and i will fumble around in the touches
And be sure to
Leave all the lights on
So we can see the black cat changing colors
And we can walk under the ladders
And swim as the tide turns you around and around
Hey we have found
Becoming one in a million
Slip into the crowd
This question if found in a gap in the sidewalk
Keep al lyour sights on
He the black cat changing colors
And you can walk under ladders
And swim as the tide choose to turn you
And here is it
Life goes on, end of tunnel, tv set
Spot in the middle
State fade, statistical bit
And soon i'll fade away, i'll fade away
This i admit
Taste so good, hard to believe an end to it
Smell touch feel
How could this rhythm ever quit
Bags packed on a plane
Hopefully to heaven
Shut up i'm thinking
I had a clue now it's gone forever
Sitting over these bones
You can read in whatever you're needing to
Keep all your sights on
Yeah man, the black cat
Changing colors
When it's not the colors that matter
But that they'll all fade away
This i admit
Seems so good
Hard to believe an end to it
Warehouse is bare
Nothing at all inside of it
Walls and halls have disappeared
My love i love to stay here
My love i love to stay here
In a corner was wondering
If a change could be better than this
And then i worry
Maybe things won't be better than they have been
Here in the warehouse
At the warehouse
How i love to stay here
At the warehouse
Every man and woman
Get alive
That's our blood down there
Seems poured from the hands of angels
But trickle into the ground
Leaves the warehouse bare and empty
My heart's numbered beat
Still echoe in this empty room
Fear wells in me
But nothing seems enough to defend
So i am going away

10. _ Jimi Thing
lately i've been feeling low
A remedy is what i'm seeking
I take a taste of whats below
Come away to something better
What i want is what i've not got
And what i need
Is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And i'll say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till i get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
I'll get back to you
Sometimes a jimi thing slides my way and keeps me swinging
I'd like to show you what's inside
And i shouldn't care
If you don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes i walk there
Well yes god knows sometimes i take a bus there
Shouldn't care shouldn't care
Bereaved as i'm feeling
The day is gone
I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
U take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind make me feel
Better for a small time
What i want is what i've not got
And what i need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And i'll say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till i get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
I'll get back to you

11. _ True Reflections
When you look into a mirror
Do you like what's looking at you
Now that you've seen your true reflections
What on earth are you gonna do
Find some inspiration
It's down deep inside of you
Amend your situation
Your whole life is ahead of you
Your whole life is ahead of you
Remember the time you hung out with the boys now
Remember the things you used to say
I thought by now you'd be the president
But after all that was yesterday
You've had time to go out in the world now
But you chose to run away
People ask you what your doin' now
You don't even know what to say
You think life is like a movie
Where it all works out in the end
I think life is like a dessert
Where does it go where does it begin
When you look into a mirror
Do you like what's looking at you
Now that you've seen your true reflections
What on earth are you gonna do
Find some inspiration
It's down deep inside of you

12. _ Rhyme & Reason
Oh well oh well so here we stand
But we stand for nothing
My heart calls to me in my sleep
How can i turn to it
'cause i'm all locked up in this
Dark place--
And i do not know i'm as good as dead
My head aches--
Warped and tied up i need to kill this pain
My head won't leave my head alone
And i don't believe it will
Until i'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
And i don't believe it willl
Until i'm six feet under gound
How long i'm tied up
My mind in knots--
My stomach reels in concern for what i might do or
What i've done
It's got me living in fear
Well i know these voices must
Be my sould i've had my grave
Lying wired and shut and quiet in my grave
Leave me here
Leave it to me to waste here
So young and here i am again
Talking to myself
A tv blares
Oh man
Oh how i wish i didn't smoke
Or drink to reason with my head
But sometimes this thick confusion
Grows utnil i cannot bear it all
Needle to the vein
Needle to the vein
Take this needle from my vein my fiend
I said
In my grave
Lying, lying cold in my grave
The reason--my reason
Take my head off this terror
The fearing won't come back
I can't see my mind's all wiped clean
The needle
Make my great escape
I seem caught in time
My head leaves me behing
Body fall cold
And i have seen heaven

13. _ Dont Drink The Water
Come out, come out, no use in hiding.
Come out, come out, can you not see
There's no place here, what were you expecting?
No room for both, just room for me.
So you will lay your arms down,
Yes, i will call this home.
Away, away, you have been banished.
Your land is gone, and given to me.
And here i will spread my wings.
Yes, i will call this home.
What's this you say, you feel a right to remain?
Then stay and i will bury you.
What's that you say, your father's spirit still lives in this place?
Well, i will silence you.
Here's the hitch, your horse is leaving.
Don't miss your boat, it's leaving now.
And as you go i will spread my wings.
Yes, i will call this home.
I have no time to justify to you,
Fool, you're blind, move aside for me.
All i can say to you my new neighbor,
You must move on or i will bury you.
Now as i rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here, but i have retired them.
I can breathe my own air and i can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls,
I'll build heaven and call it home.
Cause you're all dead now.
I live with my justice
And i live with my greed in me
I live with no mercy
And i live with my frenzy feet
I live with my hatred
And i live with my jealousy
I live with the notion that i don't need anyone but me
Don't drink the water
Don't drink the water
Blood in the water
Don't drink the water

14. _ The Stone
the stone
The stone by the dave matthews band
I've this creeping, suspicion that things here are not as they seem.
Reassure me, oh why do i feel as if i'm in too deep.
Now i've been praying, for some way to show them i'm not what they see.
Yes i have done wrong, but what i did i thought needed be done, i swear.
Oh, unholy day, if i leave now i might get away.
Oh but this weighs on me, as heavy as stone and as blue as i go.
I was just wondering if you'd come along.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
If not i'll go, i will go a long...
..long way, ah, from that fool's mistake.
And now forever pay, no run, i will run and i'll be ok.
I was just wondering if you'd come along.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
But if not i'll go, i will go a long...
...long way, "to bury the" past for i don't want to pay.
Oh how i wish, this, to turn back the clock and do over again.
Now i'm hust wondering if you'd come a-long.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
But if not i'll go, i'll go alone.
I need so, to stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you close.
And now it weighs on me, as heavy as stone and of bone chilling cold.
I was just wondering if you'd come a--long.
Tell me you will.

15. _ Long Black Veil
ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was killed beneath the townhall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
The judge said "son, what is your aliby?
If you were somewhere else, then you wont have to die."
I said not a word, though it meant my life,
For i'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife.
Oh, she walks these hills in a long black veil.
She visits my grave when the night winds wail.
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me.
Oh, now the scaffold is high, eternity is near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
And sometimes at night when the cold winds blow
In a long black veil she cries over my bones.
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me.
Oh, she walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me.
Nobody knows. nobody knows, but me.
Nobody knows but me.

16. _ Crash Into Me
You've got your ball
You've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
In you my friend
Into your heart i'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
And sweet you roll
Lost for you i'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And i come into you
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
Touch your lips just so i know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
Into me, baby
And i come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
If i've gone overboard
Then i'm begging you
To forgive me
In my haste
When i'm holding you so girl
Close to me
Oh and you come crash
Into me, baby
And i come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show your world to me
In a boys dream.. in a boys dream
Oh i watch you there
Through the window
And i stare at you
You wear nothing but you
Wear it so well
Tied up and twisted
The way i'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
Into me

18. _ All Along The Watchtower
there must be some way out of here,
Said the joker to the theif.
There's too much confusion
I can't get nooooooo relief
Business men they,
Drink my wine.
There plowmen dig my earth.
None of them along the line
Know what any of it's worth.
No reason to get excited,
The theif he kindly spoke.
There are many among us,
Who feel that life is but a joke (ha ha- ha ha)
But you and i we've been through all that,(yes we have)
And this is not our fate.
So let us not talk falsly *now*,
The hour is getting neaaarrr
And all along the watchtower,
Prince's kept the view.
While all the women all the women all the women came and went
Barefoot servatnts too.
Out side in the cold distance,
A wild cat did growl la la la la la
Two riders two riders approaching,
The wind began to howwwwwllll
The theif he take
My money take
The theif he take
My money take
Am i insane
Auf wiedersehen
Am i insane
The theif is safe
No reason to get excited! (yeah!....)
