One starry night
I saw a girl
she caught my eye
I played it cool, played it oh so cool,
I was afraid of love
but secretly I prayed for some
she gave me some
this naked lush
We made a love
we stayed in love
for years until it changed
into a faded love
the cruelest game ever played
was played on us
then it was too late for us
then it was our fate for faded love
we made a run
we were so young
we didn't know just where to go
or who to trust
when they're blaming us
no matter what they cannot take
your taste, your touch
you're in my blood
you're in my blood forever
naked lush
Oh naked lush
I can't erase
or shake that face
I can't forsake or take away
the way we loved
I wouldn't trade
I wouldn't change a thing we done
even if we turned to rust
even if we turned to dust
my love

The Trash Can

Don't you know that I wrote my love a letter
and drew a little picture
and sent it all together
just to find it later
when I was looking through her trash can
After long I wrote a little song
and I put it on a record
and made a special pressing
and I sent it with a message
just to find it in her trash can
I was a fan of her band
I put her pictures on my wall
I talk to her when she's not there
but she don't say nothing at all
Don't you know that I'm holding on to hope
and I won't give up the ghost
and so I wrote another note
but I found that letter a little later
in the litter of her trash can
I couldn't go to the show
because the order of protection
What does the judge think she's trying to prevent
It's not like I shot the president
Like Jodie Foster's stalker
when he sought her affection
solo
Don't you know that I paid a little visit
I knocked upon her door
until someone said who is it
Was surprised when I heard it was a guy
and I knew it was my last stand
I could have cried
to realize she had a husband
And I never knew there was so much room
inside the trash can

Speed Limit 55
The only thing keeping me alive
My heart is full of ruined desire
I'm driving wild with my eyes on fire
I know I'm not a muscle man
But I always do the best I can for you
You put me on and you put me out
I'm driving 55 straight southbound
Did I treat you right
Kept you up at night
and it made you crazy
Girl it made you cry
You kept it all inside
Speed Limit 55
I'm in the red and I'm driving blind
I dunno just where this road will end
So watch me crash and burn in hell
I see warning flares
and the headlights glare
And the sirens blaring, burning into my mind
Everything fades tonight, everything fades tonight
