When you touch

an' when we laughed
at the crack of dawn
with nobodyelse there
where nobody would care
with nobody to share

all things were fair
our breed was rare
one of a kind we survived
a raging storm in time

and when you touch
I'm lifted high
higher than the skies
I seize a passing light

it's you...

something
I've been waiting for
tremors run through me
my mind is satisfied
my heart's runnin' a mile

'cause it's you...

and when we touch
I'm lifted high
where I reach out
and get so much

I'm stunned,
it's enough
to hold on to
just don't stop
and I'm lifted high...

'cause it's you

Lovely Beth

 

 

 

hard as a nail, hard as a bed

 

was lovely Beth, we've put to rest

 

lovely Beth was all that, she was a cold storm

 

a

 

screamin' kettle, a horse in a trot

 

lovely Beth was all that

 

 

soft in her head, soft in her heart

 

soft in her parts, soft an' very hard

 

lovely Beth was all that

 

 

a

 

mouse keen on cheese, a car in a junkyard,

 

a cow in a supermart

 

lovely Beth was all that

 

 

sof in her head, soft in her heart, soft in her parts

 

soft an' very hard

 

hard as a nail, hard as a bed

 

was  lovely Beth

 

 we've

 

put

 

to

 

rest

It never is

 

 

 

 

 

it

 

never is easy

 

when a storm comes down with its rain

 

 

never

 

is

 

 

fightin' a fire with its pain

 

 

and

 

I

 

know I'm goin' to miss you

 

 

hangin' on somewhere in my mind

 

tellin'me your lies were my truth

 

ev'ry time

 

it

 

never is easy

 

changin' ways you once knew

 

 

it

 

never

 

is
