I Won’t Have to Cry
“I think the only way to really accomplish this is to have a tear duct-ectomy”

Gonna take a little time like I never have before
It starts out on my mind and ends up on the floor
I’m gonna save a season for when you’re far away
I’m gonna save myself a smile for that rainy day
For that rainy day

So I won’t have to cry
I won’t have to cry about it anymore
I won’t have to cry when you walk out the door

Gonna take a little while for the pain to go away
Mile upon mile, day upon day
I need another place to run, shelter from the storm
I’m runnin’ to those other arms that keep me safe and warm
Keep me safe and warm

Where I won’t have to cry
I won’t have to cry about it anymore
I won’t have to cry when you walk out the door
I won’t have to cry
I won’t have to cry about it anymore
I won’t have to cry when you walk out the door, oh no

Gonna take a little while for the pain to go away
Mile upon mile, day upon day
I’m out on the periphery, far away from sight
I’ll find out about your lies some other night
Some other night

And I won’t have to cry
I won’t have to cry about it anymore
I won’t have to cry when you walk out the door
I won’t have to cry
I won’t have to cry about it anymore
I won’t have to cry when you walk out the door, oh no

Until You Change Your Heart

You must be livin’ in a fairytale, I guess that’s true
And now it’s comin’ in the U. S. mail, what am I to do?
Are you thinkin’ of goin’ underground?
Are you gonna do it without a sound?

Until you do what you want
Until you change your heart like you planned
And you see how life can be
When you change your heart like you planned

Until you change your heart no one’s gonna be your lover
Until you change your heart
Until you change your heart no one’s gonna be your lover
Until you change your heart

I don’t have a single way to turn without you in mind
You’ve been a victim for so long, how do you find the time?
Are you thinkin’ of goin’ underground?
Are you gonna do it without a sound?

Until you do what you want
Until you change your heart like you planned
And you see how life can be
When you change your heart like you planned

Until you change your heart no one’s gonna be your lover
Until you change your heart
Until you change your heart no one’s gonna be your lover
Until you change your heart

Love Unspoken

Come what may, we’ll all pay
Over and over again for makin’ the same mistakes
Late one night it feels right
Starts out okay and ends up in a fight now, every day
Oh no, no

I can tell what you need to know about lyin’
Every time you look at me, yeah
With a love unspoken
Oh no, baby, no

All day long we sing songs
Seems alright ‘til it goes all wrong in your mind
I see you, you see you
Nobody sees me, now what can I do in the night?
I don’t know

I can tell what you need to know about lyin’
Every time you look at me, yeah
With a love unspoken
Oh no, baby, no

Don’t want to live with a love that’s been unspoken
Nobody lives with a heart that’s been unbroken
Don’t want to live with a love that’s been unspoken
Nobody lives with a heart that’s been unbroken

Somethin’ For the Bad Dream

From a broken world, angry for a reason
Strong and tired
A misleading love unleashed in balmy seasons
Patience expired

You don’t have to run, you don’t have to change
Appealing yet undone, hard to rearrange
You don’t have to run, I’ll give you somethin’ for the bad dream
Somethin’ for the bad dream

All the shadows screamed answers to the questions
It must be love
Awakened in the night, making lewd suggestions
It can’t be right

You don’t have to run, you don’t have to change
Appealing yet undone, hard to rearrange
You don’t have to run, I’ll give you somethin’ for the bad dream
Somethin’ for the bad dream

And you’re gonna break down

It’s Not Like Mine

It’s not like color, it’s not like sound
It’s not like anything that you have found
It’s not like changin’ rhyme, or makin’ good time
And it’s not like bathing in holy wine

Oh and you do your best, and you do just fine
And you change your world, but it’s not like my world
It’s not like mine

You don’t notice, you don’t seem to care
You say you can see through my eyes, but you’re just not there
And I can stand here and try to change
But yours is not my world, babe, it’s not the same

Oh and you do your best, and you do just fine
And you change your world, but it’s not like my world
It’s not like mine

No it’s not like my world
It’s not like mine
Not like mine

Broken Hearted Man

Alone, that’s the way he wants to be
Live in a room all by himself
And the phone, somethin’ he doesn’t really need
Kind of up on his own shelf

Somewhere there’s a blue sky for people that have nobody
He doesn’t have to worry
Just what went wrong?

Oh ‘cause he’s a broken hearted man, in a broken hearted town
Always on the inside, always lookin’ out for his heart, oh yeah

It’s a shame anyone should live that way
Struggle along from payday to payday
Too many women took it all away, now he’s nothing left to say

Somewhere there’s a blue sky for people that have nobody
He doesn’t have to worry
Just what went wrong?

Oh ‘cause he’s a broken hearted man, in a broken hearted town
Always on the inside, always lookin’ out
And a broken hearted man makes such a lonely sound
Always from the inside, always lookin’ out for his heart, oh yeah

Somewhere there’s a blue sky for people that have nobody
He doesn’t have to worry
Just what went wrong?

No ‘cause he’s a broken hearted man, in a broken hearted town
Always on the inside, always lookin’ out
And a broken hearted man makes such a lonely sound
Always from the inside, always lookin’ out
Oh he’s a broken hearted man, in a broken hearted town
Always from the inside, always lookin’ out for his heart, oh yeah

In The Rush to Get Things Done

Peering through the mire to catch a glimpse of the sun
Bound together with wire, another day has begun
An ever-growing overflowing list of what’ll make this day so tough
Never paying attention to what was given up

And in the rush to get things done, he didn’t see his child grow up
In the rush to get things done, never sure what he’s thinkin’ of
And now it’s far too late to mention, he loves her so much
Just somethin’ else forgotten in the rush to get things done

The ebb and flow of the cycle takes its usual toll
Slipping through his fingers, all he thought he could hold
Like some imaginary finish line has him in a dead run
But nothing’s really finished in the rush to get things done

And in the rush to get things done, he didn’t see his child grow up
In the rush to get things done, never sure what he’s thinkin’ of
And now it’s far too late to mention, he loves her so much
Just somethin’ else forgotten in the rush to get things done

Somethin’s always forgotten in the rush to get things done
Someone’s always forgotten in the rush to get things done

Old Hat

You never did much runnin’ ‘round in your head
Now I realize that you were dead
But she goes to Venus every time we’re in bed
And you were never quite like that, never
To you lovin’ seemed to be old hat

She likes to give me what I need
Doesn’t care to see me bleed
When I say I wanna be free I’m free
And you were never quite like that, never
To you lovin’ seemed to be old hat, all weather
Old hat

Ah, when the ship came in she didn’t change her tune
She’d even love me as a destitute loon
But she loves me right now as an ambitious buffoon
And you were never quite like that, never
To you lovin’ seemed to be old hat, all weather
Old hat, oh no no no no

I Won’t Break In Two for You

Do you feel like you’re alone?
Am I a twelve-room house to you?
Sometimes nothin’s really had in common
Sometimes nothin’ will do
But you can’t have one or the other, Baby that’s true

You can’t have one of me or the other
And if only one will do
Baby I can’t break
I won’t break in two for you, oh no
I won’t break in two

I know you say that I’m a Jekyll and Hyde
Part of me has none, part of me has much pride
I’m not always gonna be happy
Nothin’ about that I can do
But I can promise this, I’ll always love you

You can’t have one of me or the other
And if only one will do
Baby I can’t break
I won’t break in two for you, oh no
I won’t break in two

The Things Thing

Well, the temperature was drastic
The storm was about to come
It hit me like a steam bath in public

The grandfather told the family
“We’ll find out about the song those lovers sing
We’ll find out when it comes down to their things”

Oh the things thing
All the things sing
Oh the things thing
All the things sing
They sing, “Here we are…stop.
Here we are…….drop who you’re loving”

Well, the grandfather told the family
“We’ll find out about the dance those lovers bring
We’ll find out when it comes down to their things”

Oh the things thing
All the things sing
Oh the things thing
All the things sing
They sing, “Here we are…stop.
Here we are…….drop who you’re loving
And get your hands off……you’re smudging”

I’m Gonna Stop Lovin’ You

Give me more whiskey, give me little more booze
I can’t win but I sure can loose
I don’t remember just what you said
I only know that you said it in bed

God damn it honey what am I to think?
Guess I’ll just sit around, sit around here and drink
There’s only one thing that I can do
I have to do it baby, I have to see it through

I’m gonna stop lovin’ you
I’m gonna stop lovin’ you babe
I’m gonna do what’s good for me, not what’s good for you
And stop lovin’ you

Oh, I hear one more answer, I know it’s a lie
Hear it in your voice, feel it in your sighs
Everything you say baby, sounds like an alibi
What can I do?

Gimme little more whiskey, little more booze
Oh I can’t win but I sure can loose
I just have one thing I know that I can try
I’m gonna do it honey if it’s the last thing I do

I’m gonna stop lovin’ you
I’m gonna stop lovin’ you babe
I’m gonna do what’s good for me, not what’s good for you
And stop lovin’ you

I’m gonna stop lovin’ you
I’m gonna drink you away every night and day
That’s what I’m gonna do, I’m gonna stop lovin’ you babe
I’m gonna do what’s good for me, not what’s good for you
And stop lovin’ you

Where I Hang My Hat

The evenin’ sun, it takes my breath
As I recall her cigarettes
And a broken heart erases pain
So all that’s seen is all the same

Loneliness is my natural habitat, that’s where I’m at
No, I can’t stay here, where you’ll never understand
Loneliness is where I hang my hat

And there’s nothing new under the moon
Fight all night, sleep past noon
And the evenin’ sun, it does the rest
And all I feel is what I feel best

That is, loneliness is my natural habitat, that’s where I’m at
No, I can’t stay here, where you’ll never understand
Loneliness is where I hang my hat

Feel like you’ve always known me
You’ve always been wrong
Still, you want to disown me
I know that old song

The evenin’ sun, it takes my breath
As I recall her cigarettes
And a broken heart erases pain
So all that’s seen is all the same

Meanwhile loneliness is my natural habitat, that’s where I’m at
No, I can’t stay here, where you’ll never understand
No, I can’t stay here, where you’ll never understand
I can’t stay here, where you’ll never understand
Loneliness is where I hang my hat
