Don't talk so loud, don't slam the door If I had to speak I'd say nothing but words I saw you crying, I've heard your lies I walked behind the mule, and I'm not too surprised The devil is on the sidewalk, feel the thrill You used to be proud, you never asked for more and didn't walk on the cliff until your heart got lost I worked for a dime, I filled your glass with wine and I never broke the rules, until my heart went dry. devil's on the sidewalk, feel the heat. Curtains are open you can squeeze the blade love is a black storm running trhough your veins, running through your veins. You gave me your sugar, I laid by your door it is so hard, why did you treat me wrong devil's on the sidewalk, feel the thrill.

When the cold of the winter freezes the wind and the rain keeps falling through the morning mist. I see your shadow in my dreams are my dreams in vain the rooster crowls the breeze whispers again will you come back to me, will you come back to me. Forgetful angel did you kiss my lips I can't find a trace I'm walking on the autumn leaves. I tried so hard to hold you but you are as far as you can be I swear I've never wasted a tear will you come back to me, will you come back to me. Sleepy schoolboys are crossing the street I call your name, I'm longing for your kiss, longing for your kiss. I walk through the door, the telephone rings I hear your voice it's music to my ears.

Late at home last night the time was running fast your dress is laying on the floor the sunbeams soon may come even the deepest dark, couldn't blind my eyes. Red sofa, expensive wine inside an empty glass I feel strange in my clothes my fingers wrap the phone I saw an angel falling, visions of you in my mind. Someday the road you're walkin' will meet the road I walk look at that yellow moon, is gonna fade out soon because of you.

When I say goodbye to my girl I stop me being a man I hear the birds, they're singing but not my tune tonight. I walk the streets slowly look up to the sky when I leave my baby I almost loose my mind. Is in the words she told me or in the way she acts she burns my soul she burns my time. I'll try to sleep 'til morning and keep my thoughts behind when I leave my babe and through fhe rain she runs. When I say goodbye to my girl and I recall her lips the blue sky turns cloudy my wounds start to bleed. I never care for nothing but a handfull of dreams but when she goes away I can't keep from misery. My loneliness means nothing I see the shadows in the yard the cold wind blows I'm nearly blind. I'll try to sleep 'til morning and keep my thoughts behind when I leave my baby and through the rain she walks.

Sing me that song play that old tune you know the words I want to hear that paper moon is floding the room my heart runs through a blind alley Tell me a tale, tell me that hate is something of the past that's not my style, I'm not telling you lies I like to drink clear water. As the day grows the night dies slowly the darkness has gone to sleep I'm soaked to the bones, I'm trying to go home trying to get to your fire. Hard times are, gone good times are coming that's what it suposses to be I'll be squeezing your fur coat searching for your shoes don't think about tomorrow. Play me a song, sing that old tune I want to hear it one more time nothing is forever thought it seems to be endless even a hard rock knows it. As the day grows, the night dies slowly sweet melodies in the air I don't know where do this road leads maybe tomorrow I'll be out of here I'll be next to your fire.

You have been in trouble for a long long time you faced the devil but now you are back at home don't let your tears go down tonight. You tried to walk out from the dark and when you drew the curtains you found nothing but the dawn don't let the lights go down tonight. I will meet you in the woods just where the silence lays don't be afraid if you don't come in time. I'll take your warming hands maybe you will take mine under the moon down by the river. You are not too old to refuse a sigh but through the years you've learned to walk on solid ground the weather is so cold outside. I'll meet you in the lane just where the shadows grow don't worry if you feel so weary. I'll look into your eyes you will look into mine under the moon down by the river. You are just seventeen your curly hair wraps mine under the moon down by the river.

Pain 04:30
Pain, pain will fade away someday Pain, pain will fade awway someday I asked my neighbour, she told me so that's what they're saying on the radio but I need someone, someone to love and since you've left me I began to fall. Pain, pain will fade away someday Pain, pain will fade awway someday Children are playing, ain't that fun the sun is shining you know, life goes on but I feel pain, pain in my soul it feels like slipping out from this old world. Pain, pain will fade away someday And I wonder are you feeling like I feel yes I wonder if this carpet should be cleaned. Bloody money, same old song I keep on dancing on, the wet floor I tried in vain, to quit my thoughts nobody's listening to my pleading voice And I wonder are you feeling like I feel yes I wonder if your breathe is still here.

Almost Crazy 02:58
I crossed the empty valleys under the leaden sky and down the endless road I walked I shake some dust with this old weary bones but now I'm lost and all alone just to far to reach the shoreline it's not to much but is enough I'm almost crazy. I rode the black wild horses all along the line now I'm on this dirty floor dealing with the devils in my mind down on my knees without a hope looking for an answer in the silence drawing circles in the sand I'm almost crazy. I've been chasing shadows and I had them in my hands now I feel the winter's cold stuck inside this bloody hell and things will never be the same no sense to lose again i'm almost crazy.
