Lesson in Survival |
| Lesson in Survival |
| Spinning out on turns |
| That gets you tough |
| Guru books-the Bible |
| Only a reminder |
| That you’re just not good enough |
| You need to believe in something |
| Once I could in our love |
| Black road |
| Double yellow line |
| Friends and kin |
| Campers in the kitchen |
| That’s fine sometimes |
| But I know my needs |
| My sweet tumbleweed |
| I need more quiet times |
| By a river flowing |
| You and me |
| Deep kisses |
| And the sun going down |
| Maybe it’s paranoia |
| Maybe it’s sensitivity |
| Your friends protect you |
| Scrutinize me |
| I get so damn timid |
| Not at all the spirit |
| That’s inside of me |
| Oh baby I can’t seem to make it |
| With you socially |
| There’s this reef around me |
| I’m looking way out at the ocean |
| Love to see that green water in motion |
| I’m going to get a boat |
| And we can row it |
| If you ever get the notion |
| To be needed by me |
| Fresh salmon frying |
| And the tide rolling in |
| I went to see a friend tonight |
| 'Was very late when I walked in |
| My talking as it rambled |
| Revealed suspicious reasoning |
| The visit seemed to darken him |
| I came in as bright |
| As a neon light |
| And I burned out |
| Right there before him |
| I told him these things |
| I’m telling you now |
| Watched them buckle up |
| In his brow |
| When you dig down deep |
| You lose good sleep |
| And it makes you |
| Heavy company |
| I will always love you |
| Hands alike |
| Magnet and iron |
| The souls |
