Expecting Rain

I haven’t known peace and quiet for so long I can’t remember what it’s like

(not as despairing as it might sound, but pretty accurate.)

^ you have young kiddies, don't you?

"the country music station plays soft..."

the river whispers in my ear...

But the rest of that verse has absolutely nothing to do with my life right now.

My nerves are exploding and my body is tense
Feel like the whole world's got me up against the fence
I've been hit too hard, seen too much
Nothing can heal me now but your touch
I just don't know what I'm gonna do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you

---

You can't turn back, can't go back
Sometimes we push too far
One day you'll open up your eyes
And you'll see where we are

---

I'll be here 'til tomorrow
Beneath a shroud of grey
I pretend I'm free of sorrow
My heart is miles away

The dead bells are ringing
My train is overdue
To your memory I'm clinging
I can't escape from you

I got new eyes, everything looks far away

Aw Monkey, you got it bad, and that ain't good...waitaminute, sure it is.

We sit here stranded
Though we're all doing our best to deny it...

I used to care .... things have changed ....

"Playin' around with some sweet señorita
Into her dark chamber she will greet you"

But i will not tell you more folks !

Oh, man! Did Bob write the themesong to the Jerry Springer show?

I never took much,
I never asked for your crutch.
Don't ask for mine.

Four and two. God knows it's a struggle.

^ I knew it! Good luck and good rest!

The air burns and I’m trying to think straight
And I don’t know how much longer I can wait

Time passes slowly
When you're searching for love...

misquoted but
"I've got everything I need"

Well, I get up in the dawn and I go down and lay in the shade

you'll never know the hurt i've suffered
nor the pain i rise above
and i'll never know the same about you
your holiness or your kind of love
and it makes me feel so sorry

What good am I if I know and don’t do?
My best friend and I are in a situation that I can no longer ignore. Of course, paying attention causes trouble. It sucks!

Great thread!

Cap on head, suit that's red
Special night, beard that's white
Must be Santa
Must be Santa
Must be Santa, Santa Claus

Old Mack said I never engaged in this kind of thing before* but yes I think it can be very easily done.
We’ll just put some Leyland Cypress trees** out in the sun and have fun on Highway 61.***


* At the age of 54, I am a first time home buyer

** I just planted 17 Leyland Cypress trees on my property line

*** The name of my spread

It's a wicked life, but what the hell?
