Good Morning Beautiful
Could God really be so cruel
To give us feelings that could never be fulfilled
'cause I ain't ever found peace upon the breast of a gir
I ain't ever found peace with the religion of the worl
I ain't ever found peace at the bottom of a glas
sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receiv
In our lives we hunger for those we cannot touch
All the thoughts unuttered & all the feelings unexpresse
Play upon our hearts like the mist upon our breath
But, awoken by grief, our spirits spea
"How could you believe that the life within the see
that grew arms that reache
And a heart that beat
And lips that smile
And eyes that cried
Could ever die?"
How many whores have walked through that doo
Lain by my side & climbed in my min
& taken me down to where the hea
blisters the skin upon my fee
makes me reach out & weep for the days whe
I was pure of heart & slept in peace
Everybody knows what's going wrong with the worl
But I don't even know what's going on in myself
I smell the pain upon the breath of the lost & lonel
I hear the thoughts that whisper in the hearts of all men
You're the strangest feeling I ever had
You make me cry when you look into my eyes
And see me for who I really am
I've got too much energy to switch off my mind
but not enough to get myself organized
Don't tell me what your name is-
I want your body, not your mind
I want a feeling, worth paying for before I say goodby
But as I was talking, I couldn't look her in the eyes
I just kept wondering,-
How many men unleashed their frustration between her thighs
I was trying so hard to please myself
I was turning into somebody else
Well, whats a man got left to fight fo
when he's bought his freedo
by the look of this human jungl
It aint just the poor who'll be bleeding
I was just another western guy
--with desires that couldn't be satisfie
The calendar, on your wall, is ticking the days off
The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off
You've been reading some old letters -
You smile and think how much you've changed
All the money in the world -
Couldn't bring back those days
You could've done anything -- if you'd wanted -
And all your friends and family think that you're lucky
But the side of you they'll never see -
Is when you're left alone with the memories -
That hold your life together like -
