One day you will be the one
to say I'm sick of empty fun
It means if your faith is strong
it means you are no longer astray...
See I see all the light It comes straight from the sun
And I want to get near so I can be clear

Soon I will merge with the one
Soon I will be with the love
One day when the lights turn green
There is no time... this love I thirst

Don't get shy, don't get caught with the world and its thoughts
I'm not asking for worship or lazy sleazy thoughts

Soon I will merge with the one
Soon I will be with the lvoe
One day when the light turns green
There is no time... this love I thirst

Don't get shy, don't get caught with the world and its thoughts
I'm not asking for worship or lazy sleazy thoughts

(The Sister of Sleep)
He was thought of as strange... a good looking man
And shallow eyes like two hidden from view and empty puddles of hue
His views on death spread like two anecdotal tales
Although he, reclining, declining, to disclose in public...
These opinions in public; the tales held the key

Death is the surname of sleep, but the surname unknown to us
Sleep is the daily end of life; a small exercise in death
Which is it's sister, but not every brother and sister are equally close,
Giving to the enemy a small exercise in submission
And holding onto nothing

He was thought of as strange... a good looking man
And shallow eyes like two hidden from view and empty puddles of hue
His views on death...

One day you will be the one
to say I'm sick of empty fun
It means if your faith is strong
it means you are no longer astray...
See I see all the light It comes straight from the sun
And I want to get near so I can be clear

Don't get shy, don't get caught with the world and its thoughts
I'm not asking for worship or lazy sleazy thoughts

the heat is so great
it plays tricks with the eye
it turns the road to water
and then from water to sky
and there's a crack in the concrete floor
and it starts at the sink
there's a bathroom in a gas station
and i've locked myself in it to think

and back in the city
the sun bakes the trash on the curb
the men are pissing in doorways
and the rats run in herds
i've got a dream of your face
that scares me awake
i put too much on my table
and now i got too much a stake

and i might let you off easy
yeah i might lead you on
i might wait for you to look for me
and then i might be gone
where i come from and where i'm going
and i'm lost in between
i might go up to that phone booth
and leave a veiled invitation on you machine

and you'll stop me, won't you
if you've heard this one before
the one where i surprise you
by showing up at your front door
saying 'let's not ask what's next,
or how, or why'
i am leaving in the morning
so let's not be shy

the door opens, the room winces
the housekeeper comes in without a warning
and i squint at the muscular motel lady
says 'hey good morning'
and she jumps, her keys jingle
and she leaves as quick as she came in
and i roll over and taste the pillow with my grin
well, the sheets are twisted and tangled
and the heat is so great
and i swear i can feel the mattress
sinking underneath your weight
oh sleep is like a fever
and I'm glad when it ends
and the road flows like a river
and pulls me around every bend

and you'll stop me, won't you...

the heat is so great
it plays tricks with the eye
it turns road to water
and water to sky
and there's a crack in the concrete floor

and i've locked myself
in it to think

and you'll stop me, won't you...

I can see how you are beautiful,
Can you feel my eyes on you,
I'm shy and turn my head away.

Working late in diner Citylite,
I see that you get home alright.
Make sure that you can't see me,
Hoping you will see me.

Sometimes I'm wondering:
Why you look me and you blink your eye.
You can't be acting like my Dana?
(Can you?)

I see you in Citylite diner serving
All those meals and then
I see reflection of me in your eye,
Oh please...

Talk to me, show some pity.
You touch me in many, many ways
But I'm shy can't you see

Obsessed by you, your looks, well,
Anyway I would any day die for you,
(I write on paper & erased away)

Still I sit in diner Citylite,
Drinking coffee and reading lies.
Turn my head and I can see you,
Could that really be you?

Sometimes I'm wondering:
Why you look me and you blink your eye.
You can't be acting like my Dana?

I see your beautiful smile
And I would like to run away from
Reflections of me in your eyes,
Oh please..

Talk to me, show some pity.
You touch me in many, many ways,
But I'm shy, can't you see.

I see, can't have you,
Can't leave you there,
'Cos I must sometimes see you.
And I don't understand:
How you can keep me in chains?
And every weaken hour,
I feel you taking power
From me and I can't leave,
Repeating the scenery over again.

Sometimes I'm wondering:
Why you look me and you blink your eye.
You can't be acting like my Dana.

I see your beautiful smile
And I would like to run away from
Reflections of me in your eyes,
Oh please...

Talk to me, show some pity.
You touch me in many, many ways,
But, I'm shy can't you see

Oh baby, talk to me, show some pity.
You touch me in many, many ways,
But, I'm shy can't you..
I'm shy can't you..
I'm shy can't you... see?

Timido

Puedo ver como eres hermosa,
Puedes sentir mis ojos en ti,
Soy tímido y doy vuelta a mi cabeza
Trabajando hasta tarde en el restaurante Citylite,
Veo que llegas bien a casa
Me aseguro de que no puedas verme,
Esperando que me veas

Me pregunto por qué a veces
Me miras y guiñas el ojo.
No puedes actuar como mi Dana, puedes?
Te veo en Citylite sirviendo todas
esas comidas y Veo un reflejo
de mi en tu ojo. Oh, por favor.

Háblame, muestra algo de compasión.
Tú me tocas en muchas muchas maneras
Pero soy tímido, no puedes ver.

Obsesionado contigo, Tus miradas, bueno,
De todas formas, Yo cualquier día moriría por tí
Escribo en un papel y borro nuevamente.
aún sentado en el Restaurant Citylite
bebiendo café Y leyendo mentiras.
Volteo mi cabeza y puedo verte.
Podrías realmente ser tú.

Me pregunto por qué a veces
Me miras y guiñas el ojo.
No puedes actuar como mi Dana, puedes?
Te veo en Citylite sirviendo todas
esas comidas y Veo un reflejo
de mi en tu ojo. Oh, por favor.

Háblame, muestra algo de compasión.
Tú me tocas en muchas muchas maneras
Pero soy tímido, no puedes ver.

Yo veo, no puedo tenerte, No puedo dejarte.
Allí, debo verte a veces.
pero No entiendo como puedes
mantenerme encadenado.
Y cada hora te siento
tomando poder sobre mí y no puedo dejarte
Repitiendo la escena una y otra vez.

Me pregunto por qué a veces
Me miras y guiñas el ojo.
No puedes actuar como mi Dana, puedes?
Te veo en Citylite sirviendo todas
esas comidas y Veo un reflejo
de mi en tu ojo. Oh, por favor.

Háblame, muestra algo de compasión.
Tú me tocas en muchas muchas maneras
Pero soy tímido, no puedes ver.

After a month of just bein' alone he said, I wonder what L.A.'s thinkin'
Streets he roamed in search of a poem amongst the wild and drinkin'
When he sees cool dark skin in hot virgin white
The search was over at least 4 2night
When she co-signed and then told him she was...
CHORUS:
Shy - Cool dark skin in hot virgin white
Shy - Lips say won't but her body say might
Shy - Looks like we're gonna take the long way home 2night

Oh baby (Shy)

After a look much louder than words she said, I passed my initiation
A friend of mine, he got killed and in retaliation
I shot the boy (Pop! Pop!), huh, twice in the head
No regrets, no sorrow - I'm goin' back 2morrow 2 make sure he's dead
Cuz if I don't, they'll call me a chicken, but U can call me ...

CHORUS

Shy

Shy - Lips say no but the body say might
Looks like we're gonna take the long way home..
Looks like we're gonna take the long way home..
Looks like we're gonna take the long way home 2night

The girl was rough, but he called her bluff
And he told her not 2 know was better
Fact or fiction he wondered
And that's when the rain and thunder got wetter
And at the top of the page he wrote ...

Shy - Cool dark skin in hot virgin white
Shy - Looks like we're gonna take the long way home 2night

CHORUS
(Oh, say it now, yeah)
(Shy, shy!)
(Shy)

Ooh baby, don't U wanna be alone 2night?
Shy - Yeah (Oh yes)
Shy (Shy)
Shy - Looks like we're gonna take the long way home 2night

If you're going into the city
Can I follow behind
And if you think it's all so pretty
I might just lose my mind

'Cause it's been raining all the time
Yeah, it's been raining all the time
And I might not know how to find
My way back home

And if you're feeling sorta' weary
Let me change your troubled mind
And if you need me to be crazy
I'll only have to be kind

'Cause it's been raining all the time
And it's been raining all the time
And I might not know how to find
My way back home

And it's one tear tonight
One tomorrow
And you leave me tonight
You're back tomorrow

If you're going into the city
Can I follow behind
And if you're leaving in the morning
Can you take my worried mind

'Cause it's been raining all the time
And it's been raining all the time
And I might not know how to find
My way back home

It's been raining all the time
It's been raining all the time
And I might not know how to find
My way back home
