    In restless dreams, I walked alone
    Narrow streets of cobblestone
    'Neath the halo of a street lamp
    I turned my collar to the cold and damp
    When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
    That split the night
    And touched the sound of silence

    I saw her today at the reception
    A glass of wine in her hand
    I knew she would meet her connection
    At her feet was her footloose man

     

    No, you can't always get what you want
    You can't always get what you want
    You can't always get what you want
    But if you try sometime you'll find
    You get what you need

    I turn my face to the sun
    Close my eyes
    Let my defenses down
    All those wounds
    That I can't get unwound

     

    I let my past go too fast
    No time to pause
    If I could slow it all down
    Like some captain
    Whose ship runs aground
    I can wait until the tide comes around

    Recently finished "Persuader" (a Jack Reacher novel), which I believe is the book that Season 3 of the show will be based on. Currently reading "Burn Book" by Kara Swisher, a long time tech reporter since the early days of the internet. The book basically dishes on all of the one-time wonderboys of the tech world who are now by and large a bunch of d-cks.

     

    After that, I have the "3 World Problem" trilogy on deck...not sure yet if I'll read them all back-to-back or take a break with something a bit less dense in between.

    So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
    And there's nothin' left here to remind me
    Just the memory of your face
    Ooh, take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
    And you coming back to me is against the odds
    And that's what I've got to face

    Here I am again in this mean old town
    And you're so far away from me
    And where are you when the sun go down?
    You're so far away from me

     

    You're so far away from me
    So far I just can't see
    You're so far away from me
    You're so far away from me, alright

    Saw my picture in the paper
    Read the news around my face
    And now some people
    Don't want to treat me the same

    When the walls
    Come tumblin' down
    When the walls
    Come crumblin', crumblin'
    When the walls
    Come tumblin', tumblin'
    Down
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah

    I am made from the dust of the stars
    And the oceans flow in my veins
    Here I hide in the heart of the city
    Like a stranger coming out of the rain

     

    The evening plane rises up from the runway
    Over constellations of light
    I look down into a million houses
    And wonder what you're doing tonight

    Don't let the sun go down on me (Don't let the sun)
    Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
    I'd just allow a fragment of your life (Don't let the sun) to wander free
    But losin' everything is like the sun goin' down on me

    What happened here as the New York sunset disappeared?
    I found an empty garden among the flagstones there
    Who lived here? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
    Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
    Now it all looks strange
    It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain

    When logic and proportion
    Have fallen sloppy dead
    And the White Knight is talking backwards
    And the Red Queen's off with her head
    Remember what the Dormouse said
    Feed your head
    Feed your head

    Panacea, passion pure
    I can't resist your gentle lure
    My heart will lie beside you
    And my wandering body grieves

     

    Another endless day
    Silhouettes of grey
    Another glass of wine
    Drink with eyes that shine
    To days without that chill at morning
    Long nights, time out of mind

    Like a pair of vagabonds who wave between two passing trains
    Or the glimpse of a woman's smile through a window in the rain
    I can smell her perfume, I can taste her lips
    I can feel the voltage from her fingertips

    Net boy, net girl
    Send your heartbeat 'round the world
    Let your fingers walk and talk
    And set you free

    Johnny told his mama, hey, 'Mama, I'm goin' away. I'm gonna hit the big
    time, gonna be a big star someday', Yeah.
    Mama came to the door with a teardrop in her eye.
    Johnny said, 'Don't cry, mama, smile and wave good-bye'.

    It's magic you know
    Never believe it's not so
    It's magic you know
    Never believe it's not so

     

    Never been awake
    Never seen a day break
    Leaning on my pillow in the morning
    Lazy day in bed music in my head
    Crazy music playing in the morning light

    I don't know
    I don't know which side I'm on
    I don't know my right from left
    Or my right from wrong
    Say I'm a fool
    Say I'm nothing
    But if I'm a fool for you
    Oh, that's something

     

    Two hearts beat as one
    Two hearts beat as one
    Two hearts

    Rock a bye baby, on the tree top,
    When the wind blows the cradle will rock.
    When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,
    And down will come baby, cradle and all.

    Daddy was a cop on the east side of Chicago
    Back in the USA, back in the bad old days

     

    In the heat of a summer night
    In the land of the dollar bill
    When the town of Chicago died
    And they talk about it still

    Give a little bit
    Oh, give a little bit of your love to me
    I'll give a little bit
    I'll give a little bit of my love to you
    There's so much that we need to share
    So send a smile and show you care
    (Alright)

     

    I'll give a little bit
    I'll give a little bit of my life for you
    So give a little bit
    Oh, give a little bit of your time to me
    See the man with the lonely eyes
    Oh, take his hand, you'll be surprised

    Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'
    Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name
    Catfish are jumpin', that paddle wheel thumpin'
    Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same

     

    Old black water, keep on rollin'
    Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
