Take the Night Off / I Was an Eagle / You Know / Breathe - Live from Brooklyn
You should begone beast Begone from me Begone from my mind at least Let a little lady be
I don't want you to want me Wouldn't want you to know I don't care where you've gone beast I care you go
Take the night off And be bad for me Take your right off And be bad for me
You're a night bird, early riser You have the kind of wing To take her and surprise her
I didn't understand where you had gone Didn't know you'd be right back I didn't hear the night song Calling for you into the black
Take the night off And be bad for me
Didn't ask you to save me Not when you knew me well Wouldn't ask you even to behave for me I know there's no helping hell
Take the night off And be bad for me
Take your right off And be bad for me
So your grandmother sounds to me A woman I would be proud to be And you say she reminds you of me Every little boy is so naive
I will not be a victim of romance I will not be a victim of circumstance Chance or circumstance or romance, or any man Who could get his dirty little hands on me
So your grandfather sounds like me Head up shoulders back and proud to be Every little girl is so naive Falling in love with the first man that she sees
I will not be a victim of romance I will not be a victim of circumstance Chance or circumstance or romance, or any man Who could get his dirty little hands on me
When we were in love (if we were) When we were in love I was an eagle And you were a dove
Today I will feel something other than regret Pass me a glass and half-smoked cigarette I've damn near got no dignity left I've damn near got no dignity left
I will not be a victim of romance I will not be a victim of circumstance Chance or romance or circumstance, or any man Who could get his dirty little hands on me
When we were in love (if we were) When we were in love I was an eagle And you were a dove
When we were in love (if we were) When we were in love You were a dove And I rose above you and preyed
Damn all those people Who don't lose control Who will never take a foot out of life You might not think that I care But you don't know what I know
And damn all those hippies Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Who stomp empty footed Upon all what's good All what's pure of the world You might not think that I care But you don't know what I know
And bless all those mothers Who do all they can Just to take the faults out of the line I might not know what it's like But I'm glad that you know
Give me a minute there Just a minute now It'll come back to me
And I was so sure But you Free wheelin troubadour You took my mind off the scene And you, I know, I know I know that you know
You asked me blind once If I was a child once I said I'm really not sure How can you know How can you know What it is you don't know
We were a pair once Of no such despair once We were a child then I'm sure If we were a child then we are children no more
Give me a minute there Just a minute now It'll come back to me
And I was so sure But you Free wheelin troubadour You took my mind off the scene And you, I know, I know I know, I know that you know You know, you know, you know when I know that you know
'Breathe'
You came here to tell me something I already know Dark before the dawn is the darkest that you know The calm before the storm Is what leaves me here to breathe So breathe
Us of constant banging Throwing fists against the wall Screaming at the earth for what It's done to one and all I came here to tell you something You already know Just Breathe Breathe
How cruel I am to you Cruel things I do How cruel you were to me How cruel time can be I wrote you a book But I left it out in the rain Left it there to dry But it got rained on once again Us of constant banging Throwing fists against the wall Breathe Breathe
How cruel you are to me How cruel time can be How cruel I was to you How cruel things I do When you wake you'll know I'm gone And where I'm going there's no one So don't follow me Whatever you may hear or see Don't follow me Whatever you may hear or see
