You're in the light and in the dark
In the peace and in the chaos
In the world that's ours for naming
You're in my sleeping and my waking
A vision in my ears and in my eyes
A lover in disguise
Surprised again by
What's come over me

it truly is astounding when you read TSTS lyrics -
they are more poetic I think than when put to melody.
Great thread!

Here's to the long-lost world of
Chain-smoking dreamers
War and baseball heroes
Ticker tape and streamers,
Cocktail drinkers, Bible believers
When light was still filling up a
New York river
Uncertain where the road was leading
But trusting God was on their side
They traced the moral chain of being
And filmed it all in black and white
And everyone wore hats...

And cohen was singing
"if it be your will"
And we heard him singing
"if it be your will"
Once, we painted pictures most the
World would never see
And hung them up on nails that held
God's feet and hands
We built a playhouse
In a fallen tree,
That you'd be first to leave
Was never in our plans

My longing:
Not to be a god or hero, but to change
Into a tree that grows for ages
Hurting no one
When I told her this
She could not see at all
My longing:
To hold the hand of someone long ago
Who passed away, a memory
No sorrow
It's a wonder that
She could not see at all
She said "You need not cry"
I said "Please tell me why"
We say good-bye
My longing:
To be brave until the end of all my days
At the neighing of the red horse,
Fearing nothing
When I break down cuz of this
She sees no tears
Two souls that will not touch
Can't see that they are one heart

quote: |
Let's toast the names
Of our old flames
As well as love possessed
And raise a cup
To giving up
The sins that we've confessed
Then cry some tears
For all the years
For things that might have been
The laughs, the wine
That shining time
That may never come again
Chorus:
And so it goes
The river flows, the years roll down the line
And so it goes
(to) my dear departed friends
We'll meet again
In some other place and time
Cheers to grace
And gentle faith
To the losses and the wins
To loved ones gone
Friends moving on
To beginnings and to ends
Heres to revelry and levity
To charity and grace
With tears for all
We made feel small
For the souls we laid to waste |

Illuminate my muddled heart
Sweep the shadows from my mind
So I might imagine what you are like
and understand the great design
Darn floor, big bite
You are earth water and light
Darn floor, big bite
can I ever hope to
get it right, can't get it right
.......
not quite earth, and not quite heaven
I'll imitate love like lovers do
not quite art and not quite living
I'll pray that writing it down is part of loving you

Imagination's on the rise again
So hide your heart away
Dust off the fears and guilts and lies again
The beat is here to stay
Your satellite can reach that Eskimo
He buys a suit and tie
Re-styles his hair like girls in Tupelo
And sings "Sweet Bye And Bye"
He's meeting all your strange requirements
He thinks you can't be fooled
He'll get the rules and laws and sacraments
By sending checks to you

Slip through a tear in the fabric of the world
The earth household, the earth household
Speak the foreign language of a place beyond
The earth household, the earth household
I drink you endlessly toward my hollow heart
And wake at night repeating "How strange, how strange!"
All is touch and vision in a passionate kiss
And life's a drab curtain ready to be raised
Struggle to go somewhere beyond
The earth household, the earth household
Go to the other unknowable side
Of the earth household, the earth household
