The telephone table And the buffet. They'll leave a hole In the room where you played Your songs. When they're gone. The bed where we slept Will only be mine. And I might sleep On your side after time. When you're gone. But what will I do with that wall When you take away your piano? Will I hear music at all When you're gone?

Deliver Me 05:13
I feel like a fool. I feel like a jerk. I feel like a guy Who can't make it work. Sometimes I feel Nothing at all. That's when I break down. That's when I fall. I fall through pictures. I fall through time. I fall through memories That no longer shine. I fell in love With someone who Never loved me But pretended to. Deliver me from my thoughts. Deliver me. That's all I want. I lost a lover. I lost a friend. For her it's beginning. For me it's the end. I need a machine To travel through time. Just time to heal This sad heart of mine. Deliver me from my thoughts. Deliver me. That's all I want. Deliver me from my thoughts. Deliver me. That's all I want.

Fuck that shit on the stage. You're better in real life. You put on such a show For so many years. You'd get an oscar If it were a movie 'Cause you had me convinced That you loved me. Look what happened since. Fuck that shit on the stage. You're better in real life. You turned the miserable page Of that script. You won't win best actress, Only supporting. It was just a cameo In the movie Of my life. I've seen actresses Fall in love with guys. They say their acting but They're only telling lies. Fuck that shit on the stage. You acted your real life. You wasted all those years On this fool. You'll never get that Standing ovation You were looking for. You're a liar and nothing more. Fuck that shit on the stage. Fuck that shit on the stage. Fuck that shit on the stage. Fuck that shit on the stage.

You had nothing to say to me But you had something to do. You couldn not convey to me That you had not been true. I held my heart in front of me And watched you tear it apart. As you spewed ideas that He trained you to impart. You had something to do To someone always true, To someone proud of you, To one who loved you. You had something to do to me But you did not know how. I could tell that the strength in your words Was coupled with self-doubt. You hadn't listened to the words That I had always said. Until those words were coming from Someone else instead. He had something to do To someone sweet and new. Who didn't have a clue That he was bad news. I know what he said to you. I know you bought it too. But this sale had no warranty Like the one I sold to you. You could have had most anything That women all desire. But you don't have the receipt anymore You threw it in the fire. You had something new. Manipulated and blue. So you had something to do. So you flew. Please don't misinterpret me. I want to be so clear. I never want to see you again. But there's one thing I fear. The sweet young thing that I used to know With promise and allure Is becoming someone who No one can endure. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do. You have something to do... Something to Do Lyrics by Vern Oldham

Tulips 02:49
A leaf fell down beside me, So I looked up to see, The leaves are turning yellow on your tree. Pretty soon They'll all be gone, But they'll be back in time. That's more than I can say for you 'Cause you're no longer mine. Unfiltered sun will soon pierce through your window. The morning will announce itself on my floor: The floor we used to play games on; The floor that we had laughed on; The floor that I cried on when you left me. A leaf fell down beside me, So I looked up to see, The tree that was no longer your tree. Pretty soon its beauty Will surpass yours in my mind. I'll point it out to someone I have yet to find. I will watch it moving out my window. Reminding me that we are still alive. And someone else will notice The flowers in The Spring. The ones you'll never see again In your entire life.
