Chosen Theme Set #12 Lyrics Prompt



01. One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

And I discovered that my castles stand

Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

06. You should have asked me for it

I would have been brave

You should have asked me for it

How could I say no?

11. I asked you if a man could be forgiven

And though I failed at love, was this a crime?

You said, Don't worry, don't worry, darling

There are many ways a man can serve his time


16. And I'm comin' home again

It's been too long a time

Gettin' back what's mine

And I can't remember why I went away

But it's lookin' now like maybe I can stay

21. Please, remember me,

My misery,

And how it lost me all I wanted.

26. Lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

'Til I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

02. If I could do it all again

I'd make more mistakes

Not be so scared of falling,

If I could do it again,

I would climb more trees

I'd pick and I'd eat

more wild blackberries

07. I've been treated so wrong

I've been treated so long

As if I'm becoming untouchable

I'm the slow dying flower

In the frost killing hour

Sweet turning sour and untouchable

12. There's gotta be a record of you some place

You gotta be on somebody's books

...

Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete

And its your face Im looking for on every street

17. He's made of sand

Not flesh and not bone

He's as good as the seeds he's sown

But he loves you so

Like no one else you know could do

22. Turn the light out say goodnight

No thinking for a little while

Let's not try to figure out everything at once

27. And honey I was never gonna change,

And honey you are never gonna change,

But don't you love it that way?

03. A broom is drearily sweeping

Up the broken pieces of yesterdays life

Somewhere a queen is weeping

Somewhere a king has no wife

08. Everybody seems to wonder

What it's like down here

I gotta get away from this day-to-day running around,

Everybody knows this is nowhere.

13. Don't cry

You can rely on me honey

You can come by any time you want

I'll be around

You were right about the stars:

Each one is a setting sun

18. And I know that I'm damned if I never get out

And maybe I'm damned if I do

But with any other beat I got left in my heart

You know I'd rather be damned with you

23. And I could take another hit for you

And I could take away your trips from you

And I could take away the salt from your eyes

And take away the spitting salt in you

And I could give you my apologies

28. The Mississippi Delta was shining

Like a National guitar,

I am following the river

Down the highway

Through the cradle of the civil war

04. She's the one

She's the only one

Who makes me search myself

Until I'm done

09. And if the night runs over

And if the day won't last

And if your way should falter

Along this stony pass

It's just a moment

This time will pass

14. I better go it alone

Down on the corner

See me standin'

On a makeshift road

With the dust storm blowin'

In a long black shadow

...

Drivin' on the sidewalk

Lookin' back and the sky is burning

In my rearview mirror

I better go it alone

19. Have you run your fingers down

the wall

And have you felt your neck skin crawl

When you're searching for the light?

Sometimes when you're scared

to take a look

At the corner of the room

You've sensed that something's

watching you

24. Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time

I feel alive and the world it's turning inside out

I'm floating around in ecstasy

So don't stop me now don't stop me

'Cause I'm having a good time having a good time

29. I heard the news, lady

All about your disease

Yeah you may have all you want, baby

But I got something you need

Ain't talking bout love

My love is rotten to the core

Ain't talking bout love

Just like I told you before

05. But now and then I find myself

Thinkin' of the days

That (when) we were walking in

The Alabama rain

Drive-in movies, Friday nights

Drinkin' beer and laughin'

Somehow things were always right

I just don't know what happened

10. I kinda thought that I'd be better off by myself

I've never been so wrong before

...

I don't know what I've been trying to prove

I don't know what I've been trying to prove

15. Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still.

Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still.

Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still.

Listen to the words long written down,

When the man comes around.

20. This is the last time

That I will say these words

I remember the first time

The first of many lies

Sweep it into the corner

Or hide it under the bed

Say these things they go away

But they never do

25. Maybe you and I got a lot to learn

Don't waist another day

Maybe you got to lose it all

Before you find your way

30. When the kicks go that it brings you

You will hanker for an anchor just to cling to

When you've lived it up till it's got you down

Look for me, I'll be around
