“Sufficiently entranced, she will pass the day somewhere else, in a world that understands her unelaborate hopes and grants to the lonely soul of the loveless, graceful peace.”

“It seems so strange that the things I was chasing
Have all evaporated like a distant dream
Petty ambition, petty obstruction
Something in between
I really thought it would go on forever
Never believed they would sever the ties
All of the questions remaining unanswered
A stranger's reflection in a stranger's eyes”

“And the colors take me down
It's no reason to be sad
And you leave without a sound
It's no reason to be glad”

“You're so deluxe, you're so divine
You're so fifty light years ahead of your time
You're a riddle, you're a ripple
You're the human sacrifice to the goddess of vice
Your hairdo is spun of diamonds and lights
And you're hardly off the nipple”

“Awake to find you gone, emptiness is where you lay
I just had to smile for all the things you'll never
hear me say
Oh, I know, I could never get that near
What do you expect me to do, disappear?”

“I don't think I mentioned
I met someone else
Her compassionate tears
Oh they were like tiny bells
She was better than both of us
I shoulda stayed my hand
I shoulda stayed in Miami
With the seagulls and sand”

“And the children ran home sobbing and half blind
Said our lady has a message for mankind
Frightened and bewildered, not making any sense
Dazzled by the virgin's radiance”

“But a part of me will never be free
And the part that's free will never be me
But a thing of love and beauty is in my head
A message from my enemies, and here's what they said
They said that love = hate
And death = fate
An enemy always = an adorer
But priest = aura”

“And I'm lying here listening
And the raindrops are all glistening
In my dreams
And it seems
That the sun
never comes
And I want my sad reflection
To go drifting through the skies
To be in your eyes”

“And it's so easy to hurt me now
And you've forgotten anyhow
That certain ideas
Have changed through the years
I purchased some tears just to see me through
But you know I never wanted to
Ah, you know I did it just for you”

“Morning comes at last, and she's lying by my side
She's got the face of the widow that keeps following me
And the body of my bride
I say, why are those buildings swaying like trees?
I say, can we stop for a while?
She says, can't you hear the city that's hidden in there?
It's just another mile”
