Paradise is there
You'll have all that you can eat

Doctors have come from distant cities just to see me
Stand over my bed disbelieving what they're seeing
They say I must be one of the wonders of God's own creation

for certain of my life
you were simply my beloved wife

Well I've walked these streets
A virtual stage it seemed to me
Makeup on their faces

I may know the word but not say it I may know the truth but not face it I may hear a sound a whisper sacred and profound but turn my head indifferent I may know the word but not say it I may love the fruit but not taste it I may know the way to comfort and to soothe a worried face but fold my hands indifferent If I'm on my knees I'm begging now if I'm on my knees groping in the dark I'd be paying for deliverance from the night into day but it's all grey here it's all grey to me I may know the word but not say it this may be the time but I might waste it this may be the hour something move me someone prove me wrong before the night comes with indifference if I'm on my knees I'm begging now if I'm on my knees groping in the dark I'd be praying for deliverance from the night into the day but it's all grey here but it's all grey to me I recognize the walls inside me I recognize them all I've paced between them chasing demons down until they fall in fitful sleep enough to keep their strength enough to crawl into my head with tangled threads they riddle me to solve again and again and again

The pages I could write
But I don't know where to send it

Between a cowboy and a fool

Climbing under a barbed wire fence by the railroad ties climbing over the old stone wall I am bound for the riverside well I go to the river to soothe my mind ponder over the crazy days of my life just sit and watch the river flow find a place on the riverbank where the green rushes grow see the wind in the willow tree in the branches hanging low well I go to the river to soothe my mind to ponder over the crazy days of my life watch the river flow ease my mind and my soul where I go well I will go to the river from time to time wander over these crazy days in my mind watch the river flow where the willow branches grow by the cool rolling waters moving gracefully and slow child it's lovely let the river take it all away the mad pace, the hurry the troubles, the worries just the river take them all away flow away

How did I love you? There was no measuring
Far above this dirty world, far above everything
In your tower over it you were clean
