Holyoke College, and made a boot - the boot didn't come out so great (it was my first attempt at making one), but it accomplished what I really wanted to do, which was to get the lyrics to some of the new songs, so I can sing them to myself until the album comes out :) So I thought you all would like to have them too. These are the lyrics to the 3 she played that night, "Trouble", "Doctor" and "St. Lucy" (my favorite!), as I heard them... enjoy! - -Kyle - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TROUBLE There's always trouble from what I hear Everyone we know is breaking up this year Yeah trouble nothing new But I never thought I'd have this trouble with you I lost my one-way ticket home I'm at a busted telephone I've got no way to show you you're not alone Oh mercy mercy me Maybe for a minute I wanted to be free But then I saw what Ihad to lose they say the narrow path is the hardest one to choose I've got a one-way radio communication slow I got no Hold on oh baby hold on, I'm sorry I did you wrong Hold on oh baby hold on, Please don't you say so long When we look up from this test, we'll see our stars were only taking a rest and now they're lining up east to west so hold on... there's alwaays troubble, look around and see but I'm not in the kind I thought I'd be Isn't it always true the thing you had to learn was the thing you thought you knew I've got a new humility I thank you that to see Hold on oh baby hold on, I'm sorry I did you wrong Hold on oh baby hold on, Please don't you say so long When we look up from this mess, we'll see our stars were only taking a rest and now they're lining up east to west so hold on, hold on, hold on.... DOCTOR Doctor I've got a problem with my imagination I don't use it any more when i close my eyes I try to see all the people living life in peace but when i close my eyes all i see is what's in front of me Doctor I've got a problem with this consolation I don't want it any more In this ????? (kingdom?) clutching hands always reaching we take care of ourselves while the rest are weeping ooh ooh mmmhmmm Once upon a time there was a little baby bringing light to the world as all the stories go and everyone knows a child's a messenger of peace so if not through us then through them would you speak? 'Cause I've got a problem with my imagination I need you to help me see see... promise me... ST. LUCY I woke up dreaming in romance languages, tangled stories by ghostwriters, but more than screaming, like my eyes in bandages; all around me, your flowers - Oh, St. Lucy I can't find the place where I need to be Oh St. Lucy, lend your eyes to me.... I walk in the hall, Ms. Love's doing magic tricks. I take a seat in the back by the door, and the next thing I know I am right there in the front row, trying to crawl inside her smoke and mirrors... Oh, St. Lucy I can't find the place where I need to be Oh St. Lucy lend your eyes to me... yeah My neighbor's digging a well in the backyard while I stumble 'round looking for the light up-stairs, and I can't help but wonder if this is all I am good for, if it's all that I am, if it's my only prayer, then how far, tell me, will faith get me when the well is almost dry how far tell me will faith get me when the well is well well well well... Oh, St. Lucy I can't find the place where I need to be Oh St. Lucy lend your eyes to me... yeah "The journey is the destination." - Melissa Ferrick Protect your identity with Yahoo!
