Lucky

I played the fool today
I just dream of vanishing into the crowd
Longing for home again
Home, is a feeling I buried in you

I'm alright, I'm alright
It only hurts when I breathe

And I can't ask for things to be still again
No I can't ask if I could walk through the world in your eyes
Longing for home again
Home, is a feeling I buried in you

I'm alright, I'm alright
It only hurts when I breathe
I'm alright, I'm alright
It only hurts when I breathe

My window through which nothing hides
And everything sees
I'm counting the signs and cursing the miles in between

Home

Home, is a feeling I buried in you, that I buried in you

I'm alright, I'm alright
It only hurts when I breathe
I'm alright, I'm alright
It only hurts when I breathe, when I breathe
Yeah, it only hurts when I breathe, when I breathe
Oh,it only hurts when I breathe

Baby what you doin' tonight?
I'll go anywhere that you want to go
jump into my car go down to that bar
pretend I'm someone that you don't know

I'll ask you if you would like to dance
Slip myself up close to your thighs
You can buy me a drink, we'll make everyone think
That love is so damned perfect tonight

Oh kiss me, kiss me, kiss everything away
oh honey now kiss me, kiss me, kiss me.
come out and play

A woman can go crazy I know, working all day in and day out
come on, we'll let off some steam, create a scene
Nothing like a good scream and shout

Oh kiss me, kiss me, kiss everything away
oh honey now kiss me, kiss me,
kiss me - come out and play

Your kiss is like medicine - a prescription to exstacy
and your mind is my playground - look at what I've found
lying next to me

aahhh

Baby what you doin' tonight? I'll be anyone you want me to be
just a girl in a bar, your personal super star
I just want ya, I want ya, I want ya, I want you to

kiss me, kiss me, kiss everything away
oh honey now kiss me, kiss me, kiss me.
come out and play

kiss me, kiss me, kiss me.
come out and play
come out and play
come out and play

well you got some tips and you learned some licks
you wanna try and teach this old dog some new tricks, huh?
well you told your friends you'd have a little bit of fun
you wanna walk on up now one, huh?
you asked me if I'd like to dine - do you have enough courage
have you had enough wine, sunshine?

keep your head up
don't you sweat in the spotlight
you're coming out tonight
yeah, you're coming out tonight

take a good hard look at this big star view
don't be bitin' off more than you're ever gonna chew, yeah
you can break the rules when you play in the dark
but every wild fire comes from a little bitty spark, yeah
does your mama know who you're hangin' around
a souped up punk in a rock and roll gown, uh, small town

keep your head up
don't you sweat in the spotlight
you're coming out tonight

come on out tonight
come on out tonight
come on out tonight
come on out tonight

(are you ready for your big premiere
people will think your acting sort of queer)
Hey, well come over here

Tell your friends that you won't be home
you got a tiger by the tail and a tiger on the phone, yeah
You're lookin' sharp you got the right location
everybody's ready for the next sensation, your reputation

keep your head up
don't you sweat in the spotlight
keep your head up
don't you sweat in the spotlight
keep your head up
don't you sweat in the spotlight
you're coming out tonight

come on out tonight
come on out tonight
come on out tonight
come on out tonight

Well I have lived ten years plus ten
And ten and ten again
I have seen too much to pretend
And then you wanted to come in
I have survived all of the lies
They made me wise
The locks and walls and the peace it buys
Still when I look into your eyes
It's a surprise when you say

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away

What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me

well I plead Mercy, mercy baby
I do not know what this all means
It's been awhile
Since I've been stylin' in
Just my jacket and my jeans

It hurts to walk
It hurts to talk
It hurts to think about it
Shout about it
Could I be sure without a doubt
That you could never live without

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
I want to fall in you
Crawl in you
Surrender
All in you now

Could I be sure in you
Pure in you
Finding the cure in you
Now I plead
Have mercy on me

Now I am kneeling at the altar
In the temple of your eyes
And I am asking for a miracle
I have been too long paralyzed when you say

Get up
Stand up
Climb the rope of hope
and open up again

All the peace you say is promised me
seems too much to comprehend

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
what Can this girl believe

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Honey just hold on tight
And I'll make it all go away
Hold on

It's gonna be alright
Mercy darling
Mercy
Let it all go away

10:03 on a Tuesday morning
in the fall of an American dream
a man is doing what he knows is right
on flight 93

Loved his mom and he loved his dad
loved his home and he loved his man
but on that bloody Tuesday morning
he died and American

(chorus)
Now you cannot change this
You can't erase this
You can't pretend this is not the truth

Even though he could not marry
Or teach your children in our schools
Because who he wants to love
Is breaking your God's rules

He stood up on a Tuesday Morning
In the terror he was brave
And he made his choice and without a doubt
A hundred lives he must have saved

(chorus)

And the things you might take for granted
Your inalienable rights
Some might choose to deny him
Even though he gave his life

Can you live with yourself in the land of the free
And make him less of a hero than the other three
Well it might begin to change ya
In a field in Pennsylvania

(chorus)

Stand up America
Hear the bell now as it tolls
Wake up America
It's Tuesday Morning
Let's roll

(chorus)

Hello
Yes that's what I said
Guess I thought that I was dead
So I just called you from my bed
To say hello

See I've got this funny notion
life is only just an ocean
I've been drowning in emotion
Now I'm swimming back to shore
And I'd like to talk to you

(Chorus)
If you want to
You can call I'll be around
If you want to
You can write this number down
If you want to
If you want to
Leave a message at the tone
If you want to
You can call me here at home
If you want to
I'll be alone

So now I've called

slow
So I called
Oh it must be so appaling if you think that I've been stalling
This is me now I am calling
And I'm better than before
And I'd like to talk to you

Don't you wanna know, don't you wanna be
Someone who takes a chance on a fool like me
Staring at the door, starin' down the hall
Waiting my whole life just for you to call

Hello
Yes that's what I said
I'm not breathing I'm not dead
Waiting here now in my bed
And I'd like to talk to you

If you want to
You can call I'll be around
If you want to
You can write this number down
If you want to
If you want to
Let your fingers do the walk
If you want to
I've got hours I can talk
If you want to
If you want to
Leave a message at the tone
If you want to
You can call me here at home
If you want to

I'll be alone
