Attics of My Life
#1870818 - 09/01/03 10:14 AM (20 years, 6 months ago) |
|

In the attics of my life, full of cloudy dreams unreal. Full of tastes no tongue can know, and lights no eyes can see. When there was no ear to hear, you sang to me.
I have spent my life seeking all that's still unsung. Bent my ear to hear the tune, and closed my eyes to see. When there was no strings to play, you played to me.
In the book of love's own dream, where all the print is blood. Where all the pages are my days, and all the lights grow old. When I had no wings to fly, you flew to me, you flew to me.
In the secret space of dreams, where I dreaming lay amazed. When the secrets all are told, and the petals all unfold. When there was no dream of mine, you dreamed of me.

Yeah, what a great song. American Beauty is one of there best studio albums. Lately Ive really been digging the lyrics to Crazy Fingers.
"Life can be sweeter than this, I dont know. See how it feels in the end"
Robert Hunter is an amazing lyricist.

Understatement!
Paradise waits On the crest of a wave her angels in flame She has no pain Like a child she is pure, she is not to blame Poised for flight, wings spread bright Spring from night into the sun Don't stop to run She can fly like a lie, she can't be outdone
Tell me the cost I can pay, let me go, tell me love is not lost Sell everything Without love day to day, insanity's king I will pay, day by day Anyway, lock, bolt and key Crippled but free I was blind all the time I was learning to see
Help on the way Well I know only this, I've got you today Don't fly away 'Cause I love what I love and I want it that way I will stay, one more day Like I say, honey, it's you Making it too Without love in the dream it'll never come true

it doesnt matter, i was just saying that it is a great song.
Franklins Tower
In another time's forgotten space your eyes looked through your mother's face Wildflower seed on the sand and stone may the four winds blow you safely home
Roll away ... the dew Roll away... the dew Roll away... the dew Roll away... the dew
You ask me where the four winds dwell In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell It can ring, turn night to day Ring like fire when you lose your way
Roll away... the dew . . .
God help the child who rings that bell It may have one good ring left, you can't tell One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused just listen to the music play
Roll away... the dew . . .
Some come to laugh their past away Some come to make it just one more day Whichever way your pleasure tends if you plant ice you're gonna harvest wind
Roll away... the dew . . .
In Franklin's Tower the four winds sleep Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep Wildflower seed in the sand and wind May the four winds blow you home again
Roll away... the dew Roll away... the dew Roll away... the dew Roll away... the dew You better roll away the dew

i was quite happy when the dead played help on the way>franklins tower at darien lake this year, and they opened with music never stopped! It was totally awsome...i thought after i seen them at bonnaroo they were going down a bit, but this show totally redeemed themselves! the only thing that pissed me off at darien was that they did a samson and delilah tease, i really wanted to hear it...oh well, next time!
