You never cry like a lover should Sigh when it feels real good Or see the sky through the stone and wood You never cry like a lover
I thought I saw somebody I loved Sleeping deep inside you If I could catch you in an unguarded moment I'd stay right here beside you
You never smile at me late at night Laugh out loud when we get it right You can't get loose if there's too much light You never smile like a lover
I can't live with you baby, can't live without it And sometimes I believe in love Sometimes I doubt it But your life goes on Like a broken down carousel Where somebody left the music on
You never move like you used to do Pour it out when you're feelin' blue Somebody must have put some pain on you You never cry like a lover (You never Cry Like a Lover) Cry (You never cry like a lover) You never cry (Cry like a lover) Come on and cry (You never cry like a lover)
"In Spite Of Ourselves" By: John Prine. Sung as a duet with John Prine and Iris Dement
She don't like her eggs all runny She thinks crossin' her legs is funny She looks down her nose at money She gets it on like the Easter Bunny She's my baby I'm her honey I'm never gonna let her go
He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies He ain't too sharp but he gets things done Drinks his beer like it's oxygen He's my baby And I'm his honey Never gonna let him go
In spite of ourselves We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow Against all odds Honey, we're the big door prize We're gonna spite our noses Right off of our faces There won't be nothin' but big old hearts Dancin' in our eyes.
She thinks all my jokes are corny Convict movies make her horny She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs She takes a lickin' And keeps on tickin' I'm never gonna let her go.
He's got more balls than a big brass monkey He's a wacked out werido and a lovebug junkie Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon He's my baby I don't mean maybe Never gonna let him go
In spite of ourselves We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow Against all odds Honey, we're the big door prize We're gonna spite our noses Right off of our faces There won't be nothin' but big old hearts Dancin' in our eyes. There won't be nothin' but big old hearts Dancin' in our eyes.
(spoken) In spite of ourselves
I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.
-An affair is the embodiment of entitlement, fueled by resentment and lack of respect. -An infidel will remain unreachable so long as their sense of entitlement exceeds their ability to reason.
Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken? Don’t I make you laugh? Should I try it harder? Why do you see right through me?
I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me, I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break, I crave, I love, I’ve waited long enough, I try as hard as I can.
Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken? Don’t I make you laugh? Should I try it harder? Why do you see right through me?
I laugh, I feel, I make believe it’s real, I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees, I hope, I stand, I take it like a man, I try as hard as I can.
Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken? Don’t I make you laugh? Should I try it harder? Why do you see right through me?
Why do you see, why do you see, why do you see right through me?
I want you now Tomorrow won’t do There’s a yearning inside And it’s showing through Reach out your hands And accept my love We’ve waited for too long Enough is enough I want you now
My heart is aching My body is burning My hands are shaking My head is turning Do you understand It’s so easy to choose We’ve got time to kill We’ve got nothing to lose I want you now
And I don’t mean to sound Like one of the boys That’s not what I’m trying to do I don’t want to be Like one of the boys I just want you now
Because I’ve got a love A love that won’t wait A love that is growing And it’s getting late Do you know what it means To be left this way When everyone’s gone And the feelings they stay I want you now
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain. Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears, wish you were here.
One of my absolute favorites, csw. That CD stays on my desk :-)

ARTIST: The Who TITLE: Squeeze Box Lyrics and Chords
Mama's got a squeeze box she wears on her chest But when Daddy comes home he never gets no rest
{Refrain} 'Cause she's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night
Well the kids don't eat and the dog can't sleep There's no escape from the music in the whole damn street
{Refrain}
She goes in and out and in and out And in and out and in and out
{Refrain}
She goes, squeeze me, come on and squeeze me Come on and tease me like you do I'm so in love with you Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out And in and out and in and out
Honeypot, do you play the accordion?
Each experience in life has formed me, become part of me, made me stronger.
