Well Caesar is as Caesar does
I guess that's just the way he was
He crossed the river Rubicon
Made his choice,and just moved on

You can be steadfast, you can be headstrong
You might come in dead last, you might be dead wrong
But when your die is cast, don't linger on

I guess I shoulda seen it coming
This change of heart
By the time I saw you running
We were miles apart

Well, I don't know where you are now
But I know that I was wrong
So I am heading out to find you
'Cause that's where I belong

Don't need a compass
Don't

We always said it ain't that bad
So maybe that's why I feel so sad
I know the way, so do you
There's only one where there once was two

Even though the wind blows free
There's only so much air to breathe
It hurts so bad to close the door
But I am not in your heart an

When your problems seem so hard to bear
When it seems like love's not there
Fills you with sorrow
Makes you hope that there's no tomorrow

When you let the pressure rule your day
All the calmness goes away
It makes you hurry
Weakens your faith and makes you worry

It ain't his fault
She went AWOL
'Cause he tried everything
from A to Z

Now it's J & B
M & M's and KFC
He's tryin' hard
To make himself believe

It ain't no BFD
He's got his CMT
No S-E-X
But that's OK
At least he ain't no SOB
Like th

Well she's 6 foot 2 and her eyes are blue
And you ain't got a chance if she looks at you
There's nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
You won't have nothin' when she gets done
She'll lift you up just to watch you fall
She's a big bad Barbie doll

Big bad Barbie doll
Big b

What's up, what's goin' down
It's been too long since you've been around
Couple shots of whiskey, maybe just a beer
Do whatever you want, cuz' we're all friends in here

[chorus]
Come on in, set on down
Take a load off and hang around
Raise a glass to a friend
It

God bless all my promises
That have been said not done
God bless all the things we lack and what we have become
At 4:15 my mind is clean
A flowing stream of twilight dreams
And through the cold narcotic steam
I realize what's gone wrong

[Chorus]
My desert rose

What if I was rich?
Or what if I was famous?
What if I was beautiful
and all that stuff?

If I took good photographs
If I had a sexier laugh
If I had a real cool car
Would that be enough?

Enough's enough
'Cause all the real cool stuff
Can't be measured

I don't check out your alibis
I don't accuse or criticize
I don't write down the lies you lie
But I keep track of every tear I cry

I don't sit by the telephone
I don't wait up when you don't come home
I don't know who
I don't care why
'Cause I keep track of ever

Telephone ring,
I think I'll just leave it for the phone machine
It's pourin' down rain
And I'm lost in the rhythm on the windowpane

Oh, I know
It's gonna be okay
Sometimes
Everybody feels this way

What about you
I wonder if the rain is playing your window

Lillian spills her coffee
she stains her morning
summons a storm
holds the key

Lillian smells of spice
a gypsy runner
the heart of summer
rolls the dice

chorus
Lillian steals your heart without trying
Lillian makes you fall til you're flying
she's

Hey pretty baby, gimme back my heart
You know you treat me like a rental car
You get inside and drive me way too far
Baby, just gimme back my heart

Hey pretty baby, gimme back my heart
You're acting like a hippie with a draft board card
You tear me up and light me right

On the morning we left Nashville
The sun was in your hair
And in the trees

Then we motored on to Graceland
And turned the corner down
To Union Street

And I was feelin' very chilly
I dreamt I had top billing
In some dirty little pub
In Memphis, Tennessee

As I sit and I listen to your breath
Navigating the nighttime sky
I feel the heat from your green cigarette
As you take the last step toward your high

And I'm much obliged for the healing
But you're lookin' kinda tired
So roll it up
Roll it up in my knapsack, baby

A ten-year old photograph
Skinny-dipping in the river
My jackknife made you laugh
The cold water made you shiver
You dried off with my flannel shirt
By the August moon
How could I not love you?

Me and you and one suitcase
No money in the kitty
No church and

I ain't no sinner
I ain't no saint
I ain't no winner
There's lots of things I ain't

But what I am's in love with you
There's nothing more that I can do
Every time I think it through
I always knew the truth
I ain't nothin' without you

Like the river needs t

Found my religion
a thousand years ago
in the heart of a Mayan ruin
in Mexico

written on the ancient stones
temple of the sun
fate of so many
weigh heavy on the conscious of just one

and I lay down
and closed my eyes
the sun on my face
you on my mi

It was all my fault
I know that you were right
we went for a walk
after suppertime

I said that I was sorry
out underneath the moon
you put your arms around me
I smelled your perfume

chorus
lay me down
by the riverbank
leave your gown
at the gar

Don't hesitate, life won't wait
Don't be afraid to make mistakes
Don't let your pride be your guide
Make sure you live before you die

My old man and me, we never got along
It's always who's right, and who is wrong
Now he's turning old and gray
Precious time is slipp
