Well it seems to me you got your mind made up so go and do it, go on and break my heart
It seems to me so easy for you to be leaving and you show it, with your lips of red and other pretty parts
Well I don't know much about lovin' but I see your color true as it is
and they say my (with some) time its a comin' and I'll be back on my feet again
But I don't know if the same applies to you
id ask (if you're my vice) for your advice but it's true
that its easier than hell to fall in love with someone like you
so spare me darling please spare me Lilly May June
Well there's a look in your eyes that tells me dear that its morning so come and break this spell
because I know there's somebody else in your head and it's pleasing for you to wish me farewell
Well I don't know much about lovin' but I see your color true as it is
and they say my (with some) time its a comin' and I'll be back on my feet again
But I don't know if the same applies to you
id ask (if you're my vice) for your advice but it's true
that its easier than hell to fall in love with someone like you
so spare me darling please spare me Lilly May June
Well I see you standing there on the platform of the station where you'll be leaving never to return
The flower in your hair the coldness of your empty stare the dress you wore on breathless summer days
But in that sunny haze where you stand alone and quite unafraid a question will come into your mind
And as your train pulls in the whistle blows and sweats your skin for I am still in your spine
But I don't know if the same applies to you
id ask (if you're my vice) for your advice but it's true
that its easier than hell to fall in love with someone like you
so spare me darling please spare me Lilly May June

Kingdom of Heaven

I see the angels coming over the hill and I see glory on high
its a vast nation in the kingdom of God and we're all gonna go there when we die
Sinners go to the river, heathens dry your eyes
there a place waiting in the kingdom of heaven
and we're all gonna go there when we die
I hear the trumpets reigning over me
I feel the warmth from their sound
it's a vast nation over which those horns reside
and were all gonna go there when we die
Sinners go to the river, heathens dry your eyes
there a place waiting in the kingdom of heaven
and we're all gonna go there when we die
and we're all gonna go there when we die

Well I remember, your eyes were blue as diamonds,
the night that you were crying, the night I said goodbye
and I recall, your hair was red it was on fire,
as you set your heart to the pyre, its ashes scattered with the wind
And I think about you now and then, when I'm in need, I need a friend, someone to help me understand someone who knew me when I was young
Hey that's you, Eliza Blue, hey ay you, your eyes of diamond blue
And now I know, you're probably better off without me, to think that you had found me, when I was down and out of luck
but I recall, the nights we enjoyed our company, the freedom found in comforting the out of place and unbeloved
And do you think about me now and then when you're in need and need a friend someone to help you understand someone who knew you when you were young
Well I remember you, Eliza Blue, yeah ay you, your eyes of diamond blue
And I think about those better days like shadows in the rain
and I see another turn coming soon
at every crossroads I feel you there the trace of you is shining there
black highway, golden sun, blue moon
Hey that's you, Eliza Blue, hey that's you, your eyes of diamond blue
