Burn To Shine

Won't you sing me the blues
Won't you sing me the blues
Sing me something my heart can use; misery loves a symphony

Does your face, your pretty face get lost in a crowd?
And you say no one's there
To hear you cry out loud
What will you do, suzie blue?

Where did you learn to do that so well?
Where did you learn to do that so well?
I guess that would be like kiss and tell
If it's a secret, why did you show me?

But your far away from the love you used to hold, don't sit and watch your self grow old
The day is new, suzie blue
The day is new, suzie blue

Real life has let you down
Real life has let you down
Someone stripped the jewel from your crown
Everybody is always somebody's something
Kissing from heaven in your arms
And we'll make love to the memories
They will always see us through, suzie blue
The day is new, suzie blue
The day is new, suzie blue

beloved one (from cd "live from mars")


We have both been here before
Knockin' upon love's door
Begging for someone to let us in
Knowing this we can agree to keep each other company
Never to go down that road again

My beloved one, my beloved one

Your eyes shine through me
You are so divine to me
Your heart has a home in mine
We won't have to say a word
With a touch all shall be heard
When i search my heart it's you i find

My beloved one, my beloved one, my beloved one

You were meant for me, i believe you were sent to me from a dream straight into
To my *arms*
Hold your body* *close to me
You mean the most to me
We will keep each other safe from harm

My beloved one, my beloved one, my beloved one

i will wait like nothing; i have ever waited for
I will catch your tears from falling; until from my hands they poor

You can leave me abandoned, i'll be here if you walk back in
Like the rest i have been branded far beneath the skin
So far beneath the skin

You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven

Here i have been standing but the time has come and gone
I tried singing to you, but you turned my words to stone

Here i have been waiting, it seems for quite a while
Changed all my reflections
But inside still just a child
But inside still just a child

You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven

These eyes weren't made for crying; this love wasn't made to waste
These arms weren't made for battle, but to share in your embrace

You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be forgiven

First time that i saw her she had white doves in her eyes
She spoke to me but i could not reply, not reply
She was a stranger i had known for years
She brought to me so many smiles and tears, smiles and tears

The two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer

Tired maid slowly drifts into the past, into the past
And finds a home where all echoes rest, where echoes rest
She softly kissed my mind, my mind, and whispered what will we do with time, do with time

The two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer

Am i the man i choose to be, choose to be,
Or just the man i used to be, used to be
Am i the man i want to be, i want to be
This question, it keeps haunting me, haunting me

The two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer

Could've sworn i heard you say amen this morning, showing some kind of sign that you believe
Did it fall from your tongue without warning or just another trick to fall from your sleeve
Did i hear you say that you believe in angels? i guess i bring the devil out in you
But we can both remove our halos 'cause even an angel needs love too

The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me

Some things never change; some things never stay the same
But you're so innocent, i'll take all the blame
How i hate to remember for that means the day is past
Sometimes i wonder if i know her or if i really need to ask

The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
Woman...

Half-man walks with no shadow of life he utters his distaste
No apology is expected
Love carved sorry in his face
Love carved sorry in his face

The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
The woman in you is the worry, the worry in me
The woman in you, in you, is the worry in me
Woman...

Make me feel like a beggar
Make me feel like a thief
Make me feel like a battle, that cannot end in peace
Make me feel like running, as if i've lost my nerve
Make me feel like crying, tears i don't deserve

Please bleed
So i know that you are real
So i know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Who have i become
To myself i am numb, i am numb, i am numb

Is this really living? sometimes it's hard to tell
Or is this a kind of gentler hell?
Turn out the lights
And let me stare into your soul
I was born and bled for you to hold

Please bleed
So i know that you are real
So i know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Who have i become
To myself i am numb, i am numb, i am numb

Never said thank you
Never said please
Never gave reason to believe
So as it stands
I remain on my knees
Good lovers make great enemies

Please bleed
So i know that you are real
So i know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Who have i become
To myself i am numb, i am numb, i am numb
