MARIGOLD

Sigh by marigold
She left at sundown
Fly high and you'll go
Away, far from this town
He knew very well
His song wouldn't sing
For anyone but her
And she knew it too
Sun drips from her gown
She wears it every Sunday
Maiden tailor-made
For his mistress of night
Talk to relatives
Who paved the path for you
To walk on by and make yourself
Buy me sedatives
And numb these awful feelings
I need some rest for my head

FAKING IT ALL
03:31
|
|||
And when I get sad you turn up the nob
You're making me feel bad, you're faking it all
And when it gets bad you pray on my fall
You know it hurts that you're turning me off
And when I say that I'll do it again
You take it all away
You know it won't help to throw it under
You're up all night and day
And you can act like you know it all
When really you just try to stand so tall
And when you break down you put it on me
And everyday it gets harder to be
Friends they tell me the problems are you
I know that good's in you, that's my point of view
And when I get home there's so much to say
But none of it's easy to think of all day
You used to tell me that we're all fine;
We make each other's lives
But then I'd ask you to see it that way
Through someone else's eyes
You say you found love when I found you
On upper sides of town
But don't you keep up the way you run me
Or I won't see you now
I gave you everything you wanted to believe in
And I don't mind
Do you mind?

YOU CAN'T HEAR ME
03:01
|
|||
Can I say the things I want to say to you
If I told you all the things that I want to
Would you give me a suggestion
For the path you've made--
And I want it x3
I can see with ease the troubles that you have
I don't mean to make a scuffle out of that
If you told me all your answers
Would it make it easy?
And I want you x3
In the ceiling by the door
I can feel that you want more
What I bargained for isn't in here now
And you can sell me short as you're walking about
Cause you talk so much about anything
And I could make a song, but what would I sing
Cause you can't hear me now
You can't hear me now
No you can't hear me now
You can't hear me now

SHE'S HERE TO STAY
02:49
|
|||
I've begun to see her smile
And all her worries are gone
When she's near it still feels so far
And now she's off to the stars
She's down in Yuma now and waiting for a change
What's it like in palm tree town today
She's happy since she's found some people to pertain
Will you tell me all about your stay?
When I ponder about how it's so
That we met in the first place
I think it's fate but I still don't know
Why did it happen in that way?
She's like a shooting star but she don't see the shade
From lovely burning suns that prey
In time she'll see it's true that she is here to stay
And then she'll love the way she's made

I looked around the building for an hour
I thought I'd see you standing somewhere sour
But there was not a trace of any other
Just echos in the hall of somber chatter
I heard the words of what you said about me
I couldn't miss it cause you said it loudly
I saw the faces of the teachers on me
I knew that someone must have told them something
I took your promise when you told me things were fine
I was so struck when I noticed you had lied
I stood up from the sofa and I bolted
The cheers rang from the outside at the ballgame
I said my curses and I walked a mile
Escape from further persecution; smiles
I wanted to connect with someone better
Than what I saw in you and what I dealt with
I talked a little to the hall monitor
They didn't seem to care about the rumors
The blossoms peered outside their usual stayings
They fell a million miles from where they laid
And on the ground they covered all the sidewalks
The sun had not a care bout what the time was
A little bit from outside of the schoolyard
I saw a vendor selling pins and copper
I asked him if he saw somebody come by
Maybe he noticed when you were at her side
I took your promise when you told me things were fine
I was so struck when I noticed you had lied
You were my only desire
You took what I had of life

Sandy, Sandy, you break my heart so bad
You make me feel all tattered inside, I'm sure you wanted that
Sandy, Sandy, I've wanted you to know
You're all I ever see in my world so let's talk on the phone
I want a silk-burned shot
I saw the curtains drop
A seering needle's top
Slit pastor's candy crop
Sandy, Sandy, I wish you all the best
I know you spent the day with him so I hope you get some rest
Sandy, Sandy, I'm burning up inside
My stomach hurts I feel so sick I'm more dead than alive
Sandy, Sandy, my mother told me so
Said boy you'd better get a job and stop worrying bout this girl
Sandy, Sandy, there's fumes all in my mind
I feel like Forest Whittaker when I speak about my life
I watched the cities burn
They said to wait my turn
I forget all I've learned
I deserve what I've earned

BACK HOME
04:03
|
|||
I've waited for a long time
To find a better way back home
I'm looking for a good sign
Something of substance or
A meaning given
To things that mean nothing
Cause I've been pleading
For something to hold on to while sick
I told you bout it before
The sun as my witness
The feelings that are in store
Aren't ones I can harness
And I just wanted
Time for some stability
And I've been honest
About the things that I can see
There's time to think about it
Reasons to talk about it
I see a river coming
Tell me now and I'll be on it

WONDERFUL
03:07
|
|||
I want you close to me
The things you said mean the most to me, oh
But I understand that you need time away
When I'm apart from you
I see things from a different view, oh
And when you're ready I'll still be true
I'll stay right by your side
(I'm waiting, I'm waiting, under the waterfall)
And when you feel empty inside
(I'll be here, I'll be here, I know you're wonderful)
I need you just to be
Tell me how I'm supposed to be, oh
And I will change as much as you want me to
Don't you know I've been thinking now
That maybe we could leave this town, oh
For some place that we're not used to
And if we do then I know I'm set
I've got you, that's everything I could get, oh
And if I found the words I'd say to you
That being alive isn't always good
I've found it harder than I think I should oh,
But when you're near me I don't have to pray
I'll stay right by your side
(I'm waiting, I'm waiting, under the waterfall)
And when you feel empty inside
(I'll be here, I'll be here, I know you're wonderful)
I'll stay right by your side
(I'm waiting, I'm waiting, under the waterfall)
And when you feel empty inside
(I'll be here, I'll be here, I know you're wonderful)

I MAKE YOU BLUE
02:55
|
|||
Everything's good and everything's fine
You look like a picture and it's making me cry
It hurts like a bad dream tonight
To hold you in time
All of the things that I wanna do
Some of which with you if you'd want it too
But it's no matter if it's true
That I make you blue
Keep you waiting for me to fall
Or call you back
But I called today
And I know, and I know
You wouldn't answer
Late in the night when we're still awake
And you're at the movies and I'm stuck here baked
And I don't got no drink to chase
I'm feeling it fade
Even though it wasn't our time
Maybe another is worth a try
But I can see why you'd decline
It's yours over mine
Keep you inside my heart
I'm in love
With the things you say
And I know, I know
You couldn't stay

You are mine
You've always been
You're a part of my lonely heart
