Lyrics zur "Songs from Ally McBeal featuring Vonda Shepard" - CD
I've been thinking I've been thinking I've been thinking too much I just want to live now for a little while And cast my dreams to the wind Don't wanna wonder Don't wanna wonder what it's all about I'm just working for a living singing with my friends As I cast my dreams to the wind Maryland, I'm coming home Never worry about what I did wrong And that I'll never be what my daddy wanted me to be And I'll never see what my mama's dreams were But I will sing La la la la la la la la... I wanna fly I wanna fly down the highway to my home away from home This funky funky club on Fairfax Avenue to see you I'll never give up Because what is there to give up anyway I'm just working for a living working for my pay In Maryland it's raining somewhere in some cafe Maryland, I'm coming home Never worry about what I did wrong And that I'll never be what my daddy wanted me to be And I'll never see what my mama's dreams were But I can sing La la la la la la la la... We've live a long, long time and all the radios are playing our song tonight We walk a crooked line 'cause there is a counter life in your jailed eyes You're never a victim of your generation and you shine on me like a holy light All of the miracles and conversations rain on me tonight We've got a one track mind, true as a railroad, always on time I see it in your eyes, you don't have to talk to me, I know what you're thinking I need my solitude as much as you do darling, to live this life we came here for Never for one single solitary moment did I need you more We live a lucky life I see it all tonight We sit and close our eyes Traveling to paradise or to anywhere we like We live a lucky life My home is on the road, the pavement caters to, to my gypsy soul We walk the tightest rope, we live in a circus, circus of hope All of the melodies and inspirations shine on me like a holy light Right in the middle of our conversations you wink at me, saying it's alright We live a lucky life I see it in your eyes We sit and close our eyes Traveling to paradise or to anywhere we like We live a lucky life I feel like I'm walking on a mine I'm gonna leave it all behind I feel like I'm gaining my soul While I'm losing my mind And I feel like I understand And I feel like a grain of sand I'm gonna walk through that door I'm gonna see what it's there for 'Cause all I ever want is your skin or your soul, baby But you couldn't give me either one of those And I feel like I understand And I feel like a grain of sand And I feel like a grain of sand You use to hold me like a flower We used to talk for seven hours I see the bigger picture now And I feel like I understand And I feel like a grain of sand And I feel like a grain of sand 4. The Wildest Times of the World I have fallen, I have stood up, I've had the patience of a tree You have trembled, you have stayed still, you have tumbled like a weed All the mountains, all the deserts, go for miles and miles around We have driven for years now, baby, just to get back to a place we had already found Now you're driving me downtown, baby, on a rainy night You're driving me crazy, baby, is this really life? In the wildest times of the world Oh I never thought I would be here with you tonight In the wildest times of the world Let's stay together in this lonely and crazy life I was mistaken our love was forsaken, worst mistake I ever made Were you lonely, were you brave, now? I guess the two are one and the same Now I'm singing here with my sweet, sweet darling in my eye Ain't it funny how you're walking through life and it turns on a dime? I was missing you crazy, baby, are you really mine? In the wildest times of the world Oh I never thought I would be here with you tonight In the wildest times of the world Let's stay together in this lonely and crazy life Hey Hey Hey... He sees what I'm lacking and he tells me without attacking my life He sees what I'm needing and he gives me love without my pleading I see where his worries lie and I help him to decide He sees what I'm missing, that sometimes I need to be alone, but sometimes I need him to listen Like a hemisphere he surrounds me with a wisdom that astounds me Like the horizon, he draws my eye to him and he makes me see just how lonely I have been He knows what I'm thinking without a sign, without blinking my eyes I know what he's asking, in our love there ain't no masking, no disguise I know what he's after, it's the truth and the laughter Why can't we see in ourselves, all the beauty we see in everybody else? Like a hemisphere he surrounds me with a wisdon that astounds me Like the horizon, he draws my eye to him and he makes me see Like a radio he calls out to me in the middle of the night Like a hemisphere he is perfectly clear and he makes me see just how lonely I have been I don't wanna go through this life just getting by, I want to fly I don't wanna go through this life not asking why I need to know why we are here, we are here together now I don't wanna go through this life just to die Well, you made me see just how lonely I have been Like a hemisphere he surrounds me with a wisdom that astounds me Like the horizon, he draws my eye to him and makes me see Like a radio he calls out to me in the middle of the night Like a hemisphere he is perfectly clear and he makes me see just how lonely I have been Is that all America? Bad television, living in denial, I know 'Cause I don't wanna know Wanna run, wanna fly Let my illusions take me through the night It's alright, wanna be the light I was born in a cardboard box New York City, 1963 Poetry readings and bohemians Now inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud I can hear you sing like an angel Merilee, Merilee, she takes forever But she's always laughing, laughing about anything I could be so happy As long as my friends are hangin' around me Are we all fast food and no introspection? All done with mirrors, but no real reflection I wanna live in my own little world Where inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud I can hear you sing like an angel Naivete'...this world is lost on me Naivete'...I don't wanna know anyway I always pictured my life this way As two women order their chardonnay Sitting alone in some dirty cafe Where inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud I can hear you sing like an angel I try so hard I don't know what to do I'm gonna lose my mind if I can't have you The brake lights are on and nobody's home I can hear you talking on the telephone And my baby has the blues again Somehow they just seem to hit him And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend I believe that you're leaving And I believe you're already gone You're already gone If you can't find love, you've gotta find a method Of learning to live in the world today I don't know what it was that I expected I guess I'm a fool to want perfection And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend I believe that you're leaving And I believe you're already gone I better believe what I'm seeing 'Cause I believe that it's so long It's so long (as in "see ya") I try so hard I don't know what to do It's obvious I won't end up with you The brake lights are on and it's so clear You can't pretend you wanna be here This train of thought has arrived at the station We don't need anymore contemplation And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend He says everybody's crazy No one knows how to live He takes another drink of whiskey and says No one knows how to give He says everybody's lonely And they love to talk about it They say if I could have you only You know I'd never doubt it I'd never doubt it Every now and then you were in love with me Every now and then you came to find me Every now and then you'd be in love with me Surprise, surprise it's me again It's every now and then My boyfriend's on the fringe He says that I'm naive He says this world makes him cringe Sometimes he'd rather leave My boyfriend's on the blink He says he can't pretend He's had too much to drink And it's coming to the end It's coming to the end Every now and then you were in love with me Every now and then you came to find me Every now and then you'd be in love with me Surprise, surprise it's me again It's every now and then Every now and then you'd be in love with me Surprise, surprise look in my eyes It's every now and then Every now and then you'd get down on your knees And cry to me, 'cause once again It's every now and then There is a fire within all of us There is a river flowing in your soul To put out the fire when it gets out of control There is a stranger in all of us That we try to get to know There is a wise woman in there, too She's trying to run the show I can not escape the constant equipoise In between the mischief and control Swinging from the pendulum of desires In between the mischief and control There is a painter in all of us She knows exactly which brush to choose She knows exactly where to make a stroke But there's an army of voices She might have to get through There is a writer in all of us, yeah He knows what to say and he knows when it's done But then there's this twenty-foot blank page You gotta fill, darling Or you think your life has no meaning I can not escape the constant equipoise In between the mischief and control Swinging from the pendulum of desires In between the mischief and control Excuses piling up like junkyards We never want to sort through Efficiently we hide our needs And all along a voice is calling out please, please 'Cause I'm so hungry and I'm so tired I feel so lonely, I feel so wired I need my angel...where is my angel Above all things there must be love And following your deepest soul You look like you need some fun I'm dying to sail into the sun Dreamers ask what've I become I can see that shoreline star Pulling me to worlds so far Taking me and pulling hard Away from judgment's own backyard Away from judgment's own backyard Why should I change for anyone? Why should my chains break or come undone? And I'll sing glory hallelujah I'm coming home Baby don't rescue me, don't rescue me 'Cause I'm gonna be what I'm gonna be Do you hear my melodies? Do you hear my Van Gogh's cry? Will it be my brother's purchase? Even only when I die? Even only when I die Why should I change for anyone? Why should my chains break or come undone? And I'll sing glory hallelujah I'm coming home Baby don't rescue me, don't rescue me 'Cause I'm gonna be what I'm gonna be I been up and down, I been all around In the sky and baby on the ground High as the sun, deep as the sea Rain has been falling all over me I wanna live in harmony I know what I need to be free Baby, please don't rescue me 'cause I'm gonna be... The antennas on the rooftops Make collages in the cloudy sky Sort of like a black and white photograph Now it's raining in my eye It's enough to feel the wind blow It's enough to feel the rain I'm in love with a man that don't know As I ride this steady train There's a storm in the distance But I have always loved the rain I want a love without resistance Can there be love without any pain? It's enough to feel the wind blow It's enough to feel the rain I'm in love with a man that don't know As I ride this steady train Well, this street looks so familiar I ain't been here for twenty years At what moment do you turn you head around And walk a straight line, straight and clear? It's enough to feel the wind blow It's enough to feel the rain I'm in love with a man that don't know As I ride this steady train I was so lost and you were so profound You taught me how to fly with my feet still on the ground And you told me to be what it is that I was No matter what all of the businessmen said Serious Richard, why do you frown like you do? Why do you think the whole world is after you? Well, you're probably right and it's probably true about me, too 'Cause sometimes the world ain't sweet Oh these days, when was it ever? Maybe it's just this city hurts Oh Richard, I love you worse Serious Richard I often recall the time in the doorway in Paris The time of the broken sinks and the broken hearts And the broken weeds that we tore apart Thinking they were flowers, thinking they were art We were so smart, Richard We liked our love, we loved to live Out in the streets we knew how to give We were alive, happy to be alive You don't know my memory lingers Or the message of your fingers Serious Richard, where did you go? I never thought an ending we would ever know Now it's so cold without your love |
