My baby ran away; my baby's on the run
My baby ran away from me; she's chasing down the sun
My head is spinning and I feel so low
I know she loves me but I know she had to go
Oh but I miss her so
Don't give a damn what happens to my body
Don't know that anybody will
And once again I showed up late to the party
So bury my heart in Jacksonville
My baby never writes; my baby never calls
That girl will be the death of me; put me up against the wall
My head is spinning and I feel so low
I know she loves me but I know she had to go
Oh but I miss her so
Don't give a damn what happens to my body
Don't know that anybody will
And once again I showed up late to the party
So bury my heart in Jacksonville
And maybe it's better that you never got any of my letters
When we were together, I thought you'd see me die- I thought that shit was forever
My head is spinning and I feel so low
I know she loves me but I know she had to go
Oh but I miss her so
Don't give a damn what happens to my body
Don't know that anybody will
And once again I showed up late to the party
So bury my heart in Jacksonville
Bury my heart in Jacksonville
Bury my heart in Jacksonville
Bury my heart in Jacksonville

This Beast

Well I fall in love a hundred times a day- maybe not today
I had been a fool- just looking for someone who looks like you
But I can't bare the cross of being loved right now
Or the chains of knowing someone sees right through me
No I can't bear the cross of being loved right now
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
Well I fall apart a hundred times a day- maybe not today
I am waking up and looking for a way to shake it up
But I can't bare the cross of being loved right now
Or the chains of knowing someone sees right through me
No I can't bear the cross of being loved right now
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart
No one owns this beast I call my heart

All I wanna do is slow dance
Spend the night in the arms of a friend
All I wanna do is slow dance
And feel holy again
There's something tender; a gin-soaked liver or Zevon tune
In your surrender, I never felt more like the rain in June
The way you move it- swinging your hips to the sway and the sweat
All night you prove it; we may be tired but we ain't dead yet
All I wanna do is slow dance
Spend the night in the arms of a friend
All I wanna do is slow dance
And feel holy again
I hear a whisper; tumbling ash from a lit cigarette
It's pretty picture with the night moving in and the air getting wet
Hey Mr. pitiful- waving that flag- calling for a truce
Getting old an cynical; come on now, baby don't you turn me loose
All I wanna do is slow dance
All I want is a dance with you
All I wanna do is slow dance
All I want is a dance with you
All I wanna do is slow dance
Spend the night in the arms of a friend
All I wanna do is slow dance
And feel holy again

Take a chance on me

Why do you say my name like it's nothing to you?
Only a fool, babe, would suffer like I do
This is a good joke at a bad time
What have you got to lose if there's nothing on the line?
Come on baby take a chance on me
Roll the dice; a little wait and see
Come on baby take a chance on me
Come on baby take a chance on me
Why do I lie awake when I know you're sleeping?
Only a fool, babe, would linger like I do
This is the last time I'll be waiting on you
Don't wanna be on a road to paradise
Come on baby take a chance on me
Roll the dice; a little wait and see
Come on baby take a chance on me
Come on baby take a chance on me
I have been done wrong
I have been fucked over
But there's nothing in the tank
And there's nothing to drink
And I'm dying to see you tonight
Come on baby take a chance on me
Roll the dice; a little wait and see
Come on baby take a chance on me
Come on baby take a chance on me
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby take a chance on me

Roses

Everything just looks like roses
My heart- it sank baby like a stone
When I heard that you were ringing up my phone
Up my phone
Up my phone and you're all alone
Everything just looks like roses
When I remember loving you
Everything just looks like roses
And I remember loving you
I remember loving you
I remember loving you
I thought by now, you'd find some other bitter boy
Someone cold enough to rob you of your hope
Of your hope and all your joy
Everything just looks like roses
When I remember loving you
Everything just looks like roses
And I remember loving you
I remember loving you
I remember loving you
My heart- it sank baby like a stone
When I heard that you were ringing up my phone
Up my phone
Up my phone and you're all alone
Everything just looks like roses
When I remember loving you
Everything just looks like roses
And I remember loving you
I remember loving you
I remember loving you

Call me anything you like
As long as you call me
Anything you like
As long as you call me
Anything you like
Anything at all
Am I a road to ruin or am I heaven-sent?
If there's a storm a-brewin, it's time that I repent
Call me anything you like
As long as you call me
Anything you like
As long as you call me
Anything you like
Anything at all
Anything you like
As long as you call me
Anything you like
Anything at all

Devil take me
01:11

Devil take me, I've been to long away
Devil take me, how I wish I could stay
So if it's love you want, I'm on my knees
Devil take me, Devil take me please
Devil take me, I've been drinking a bit
Devil take me, I do not give a shit
Cheers to my future liver- may you rest in peace
Devil take me, Devil take me please
Devil take me, I ain't taking no more
Devil take me, I have settled the score
You always wore it better- love's sweet disease
Devil take me, Devil take me please
Devil take me, Devil take me please

I made my self impossible to love
To test my heart; to try and rise above
I know somehow, I'll make it out alive
I've got no choice- no choice but to survive
Maybe flying so close to the sun is just what you need
I don't have another second baby to miss you till I bleed
I hope you write home about me
I hope the sun will rise without me
I hope you write home about me
So you tell me- tell me how it's gonna be
You've got no time and I've got no sympathy
I ran my course- ran it straight into to the ground
I broke and I bent for a heart that I had found
Maybe flying so close to the sun is just what you need
I don't have another second baby to miss you till I bleed
I hope you write home about me
I hope the sun will rise without me
I hope you write home about me
I made my self impossible to kill
To test my heart; to try and break my will
I know somehow, I'll make it out alive
I've got no choice- no choice but to survive
Maybe flying so close to the sun is just what you need
I don't have another second baby to miss you till I bleed
I hope you write home about me
I hope the sun will rise without me
I hope you write home about me

I met you down at the discotheque
Golden hair hanging 'round your neck
Leather pants- you drove me crazy
But you were probably already somebody's baby
I love the way you make me come
I love it when you call me scum
Ooh baby how I bit my tongue
I love the way you make me come
I caught your eye and you caught mine
Standing there in the bathroom line
One look- that was all
As you pushed me into the stall
I love the way you make me come
I love it when you call me scum
Ooh baby how I bit my tongue
I love the way you make me come
I love the way you make me come
I love it when you call me scum
Ooh baby how I bit my tongue
I love the way you make me come
