Will You Remember Me - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Will You Remember Me
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash, John Leventhal

Lyric:
Will you remember me
Like the circled stones
On the ancient hills
Where you walk alone?

Where the wind can speak
My secret name
Like the air you breathe
Will you remember me?

Will you remember me
As your airplane flies?
Over foreign seas
An' breaking skies

Like a perfect child
You can't bear to leave
In your last long days
Will you remember me?

Will you remember me
On the edge of life
Where time runs slow
Where song can fly

In these shuttered rooms
Where we say goodbye
When the soul is free
Will you remember?

When there's no need to breathe
Will you remember me?

44 Stories - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: 44 Stories
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash, John Leventhal, Robert Burke Warren

Lyric:
Baptize her with bitter tears till she knows your pain is real
Next time you see her on her knees, don't try to make a deal
Don't stare her into silence with frozen point of view
'Cause she's got 44 stories, she wants to tell them all to you

Welcome her to all your fears and trust that she will cope
Give her one day of satisfaction for a thousand years of hope
Don't turn to dry your eyes and lose your chance to look
'Cause she's got 44 stories, she wants to write them in a book

Wait until your memory clears then welcome her to Rome
The desert of your misspent years that led you to her home
Don't hold her up to sunlight, she'll melt into the blue
Don't make her shout through static if you want hear the truth

'Cause she's got 44 stories, she's got 44 stories
She's got 44 stories, she wants to tell them all to you

Sleeping In Paris - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Sleeping In Paris
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
I'll send the angels to watch over you tonight
And you send them right back to me
A lonely road is a bodyguard
If we really want it to be

There's fascination behind every window
But I know you really care for me
And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
And we can set those angels free

No one sees behind the mask
No one knows I'm sinking fast
But soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
And we can set those angels free

Love is just a lunar slave
It's tied to the ebb and flow
Generations get glued to the waves
Just to see which way they'll go

There's desperation on wild street corners
But I think you're just waiting for me
And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
And we can set those wild ones free

No one sees behind the door
But every day it's one step forward
And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
And we can set those wild ones free

All those nights I laid with my eyes closed
But not sleeping at all, those nights
I thought I knew which way the wind blows
But now it's blowing me back to you
And the wind speaks French too

No one sees and no one knows
But every day I'm letting go
And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
Soon we'll be sleeping in Paris
And we can set those angels free

Land Of Nightmares - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Land Of Nightmares
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Vince Melamed, Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
I love you till I just can't feel
I need you till it makes me numb
We hang on a noose of subtle abuse
Like there's nothing to fear

Livin' in the land of nightmares

The ocean's calm outside my door
The storm rages inside my head
In perfect control so no one could know
I smile but I'm not even there

Livin' in the land of nightmares

A vision full of sound and light
I think, she's holdin' back all night
With bitter desire, she stoops to conspire
She is the reason I'm here

Livin' in the land, livin' in the land of nightmares

I'Ll Change For You - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: I'Ll Change For You
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
I'll change for you
I'll change for you
I'll change for you
I'll turn night into day

An' I'll change for you
(I don't care what the books say)
I'll change for you
(I don't care what my friends say
I'll change for you
An' I won't make you pay

'Cause everything reminds me of you
A baby's feet, an old man's smile
Silent scream and lover's cry
Till I can't do nothing

But change for you
(An' all the rules that were lies)
I'll change for you
(I sit an' watch while they burn)
I'll change for you
I'll be all that you need

'Cause everything reminds me of you
A baby's feet, an old man's smile
Silent scream and lover's cry
Till I can't do nothing
But change for you

I'll lie by your side an' whisper your name
I'll clock all your dreams and knock over rails
I'll let go my past, write your name in my skin
I'll travel through time to love you again

An' I'll change for you
(I'll just wait for you wherever)
I'll change for you
(An' watch you lean back too much)
I'll change for you
I'll turn night into day

I'll change for you
(An' I'll give it my best)
I'll change for you
(An' I won't stop till you rest)
I'll change for you
An' I won't make you pay

Western Wall - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Western Wall
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
I stand here by the Western Wall
Maybe a little of that wall
Stands inside of us all

I shove my prayers in the cracks
I got nothing to lose
No one to answer back

All these years I've brought up for review
I wasn't taught this but I learned something new
I had to answer a distant call

At the Western Wall
I've got a heart full of fear
And I offer it up on this altar of tears

Red dust settles deep in my skin
I don't know where it stops
And where I begin

It's a crumbling pile of broken stones
It ain't much but it might be home
If I ever loved a place at all, it's the Western Wall

I don't know if God was ever a man
But if She was, I think I understand
Why He found a place to break his fall
Near the Western Wall

Rules Of Travel - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Rules Of Travel
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash, John Leventhal

Lyric:
Now that you've made your mistake
Now that you know how the heart bends and breaks
Just throw away the book and take a second look
Behind the door a guided tour, what we came here for

One, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules

Like one, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules of travel

Inside each other's hearts
Inside each other's hearts

When do the walls tumble down?
Into the sky, into the stars and the ground
Today, to give it up; surrender to the love, no man to hold
No way to know that you are home

One, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules

Like one, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules of travel

Inside each other's hearts
Inside each other's hearts

One
(Don't let the sun)
Two
Three
(Don't let the sun)
Four

One, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules

Like one, don't let the sun go down on
Two, love but are undone by
Three, whose name is
I won't even start before we learn the rules of travel

Inside each other's hearts
Inside each other's hearts

The Summer I Read Collette - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: The Summer I Read Collette
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
That was the summer that followed the spring
The sad anniversary of a thousand old things
I was letting them go

The words of Collette and a strange new perfume
The drenching my senses and filling the room
The heat from my body is the light in our eyes
Word is surrender and then we can fly
We were letting it go

We are blinded to the beauty in our own lives
But hours taken are all that I could get
For five or six hours in the month of July
The summer I read Collette

The time were align and we learnt how to crawl
The bones were prison and memory of old
A word from the past I feel nothing at all
And now I'm letting it go

It's more than survival the lesson, I have learnt
When I found salvation's quite a surprise
Now that was the summer that followed the spring
A new way of feeling a million and one things

We are blinded to the beauty in our own lives
But hours taken are all that I could get
For five or six hours in the month of July
The summer I read Collette

And I found Paris a hundred years late
Calling it sleeping in [Incomprehensible]
My ear to the stone I can hear her sing
[Incomprehensible]

Well, I sold my silver to get myself there
To a room with a candle up three flights of stairs
That was the summer, I let it all go
Filling my body with my heart and my soul

We are blinded to the beauty in our own lives
I was taking all I could get
For five or six hours in the month of July
The summer I read Collette

What We Really Want - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: What We Really Want
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
We tried to make ourselves pay
For something we've never done
We threw the best parts of life away
On street talk strangers and drugs
And what we really want is love
What we really need is love

I wanna call out your name
I wanna hold out my hand
A woman silent in the mirror tonight
Wants to talk to your mirror man
And what they really want is love
And what they really need is love

We are ships in the night
The water is deep in between
There is reason and we can't find the light
So we sail off into our dreams
And what we really dream is love
And what we really need is love

What we want is love
What we need is love

We tried to make it feel right
In someone else's world
We sat and looked out my window last night
And knew that things had changed with this girl
'Cause what I really found was love
What we really need is love

What we really want is love
What we really need is love
What we want is love
What we need is love

Price Of Temptation - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Price Of Temptation
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
Standing on the edge of tonight
Don't know if I'll fall or fly

But that's the price you pay for temptation
There's no other way through temptation
That's the price you pay

Well, I'll let the rivers cry through my eyes
And watch myself go crazy with desire

But that's the price you pay for temptation
There's no other way through temptation
That's the price you pay

God says, ?Here's a lesson and a kiss
You can walk though fire or crawl through this?

But that's the price you pay for temptation
There's no other way through temptation
That's the price you pay

Never Alone - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Never Alone
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Vincent Gill, Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
You were like a lost kid looking for home
You found what you wanted right in my arms

If you walk out on me, just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone

If you find another one turns your head
And you can't understand why it hurts so bad

If you walk out on me, just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone

Ain`t no need to talk about it
I can learn to live without it
Just leave your heart right here with me

If you walk out on me, just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go

If you walk out on me, just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone

Girl, you're never alone never alone

Real Woman - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Real Woman
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rodney Crowell, Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
Don't want to be a star
I don't want to talk through glass
I don't want to check my appearance
In your eyes

I don't need a million bucks
And baby, it don't take much
I don't need to play the princess
All the time

I want to be a real woman
Changin' every day
I want to be a real woman
Real in every way
I want to be a real woman

I don't want to be admired
I don't want to fake my smile
I don't want to use my charm
To disarm you

You don't have to spin your wheels
Oh baby, I know how that feels
You don't have to pass some test
Just to impress me

I want to be a real woman
Changin' every day
I want to be a real woman
Real in every way
I want to be a real woman

Real is how I deal with
What I deal with
Real is how I feel when
I know how I'm feelin'

I don't want to be a man
I just want to be what I am
I don't want to hide my light
So yours keeps shinin'

If you don't want to face the truth
Then you're not gonna like what I do
But you're not gonna make or break me
So don't start tryin'

I want to be a real woman
Changin' every day
I want to be a real woman
Real in every way
I want to be a real woman

Closing Time - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Closing Time
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash

Lyric:
I was a fool to say it was over
I was concerned with my pride
The words are crazy and fall out of place
From this heartache I can't hide

I hear your name in slow conversation
I see your face in the crowd
My heart desires so many things
That my pride just can't allow

I'd close down this heart tonight
Leave without a fight
Say goodbye to your sweet memory
If I can lie in your arms tonight
If I can lie in your arms tonight

Was I the fool to think you would see me
When all I wanted was you?
Then I saw your eyes go through those changes
And wondered how you knew

I hear your name in slow conversation
I close my eyes and knew
I'd never find a way to deceive you
I just can't let you go

I'd close down this heart tonight
Leave without a fight
Say goodbye to your sweet memory
If I can lie in your arms tonight
If I can lie in your arms tonight

I was a fool to say it was over

Seventh Avenue - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Seventh Avenue
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Roseanne Cash, J Leventhal

Lyric:
The world keeps getting smaller
'Till it closes 'round my room
And everything I feel now
Is hard and fast and true

My window is a spotlight
On the madness down below
It takes a silent figure
To make this place a home

And now the candles burn all night without you
And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
On Seventh Avenue

I gave you what you wanted
And it took so many years
Now I'm just a part of
The traffic and the tears

I am not a lighthouse
Not the answer or the truth
But the love that I held onto
Is safe inside this room

Now the candles burn all night without you
And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
On Seventh Avenue

Now the candles burn all night without you
And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
On Seventh Avenue

All of the stories from all of our lives
Are not lost from memories on these streets tonight

It Hasn'T Happened Yet - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: It Hasn'T Happened Yet
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): John Hiatt

Lyric:
You said that I would be sorry
If you went away
You said I wouldn't be happy
Without hell to pay

You said the teardrops would fall
Between the bedroom walls
You said that I would regret
But it hasn't happened yet

Your friends come over and offer
To take me to eat
They seem so sorry I'm suffering
So much misery

They say to just give a call
Next time that I start to crawl
I always say yeah, you bet
But it hasn't happened yet

I don't have anyone
I'm having fun
Nobody's into me
No one's a mystery

I see you on the street
My heart don't miss a beat
Love and hostility
Don't mean a thing to me

I find it hard to remember
The good times we had
Call me insensitive
Now that it's over, I'm glad

You said when big shadows fell
It would be too hard to tell
My life from your silhouette
But it hasn't happened yet

Don't hold your breath, baby

Three Steps Down - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Three Steps Down
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Marc Cohn, John Leventhal

Lyric:
Three steps down below the city streets
In our private room, the color all runs out
An' not a sound, the smoke curls in the air
And I can feel a sliding peace, come over me tonight

Dead or dancin', 'cross the room
The candles burn and shadows loom
I hide below it all or heaven's underground
The clouds are fallin' at our feet
Three steps down below the street

So comin' down, it's like water after wine
Oh, comin' down a long hard line
And I know better's gettin' harder all the time
From three steps down, from three steps down

Dead or dancin', 'cross the room
The candles burn and shadows loom
I hide below it all or heaven's underground
The clouds are fallin' at our feet
Three steps down below the street

Three steps down below the city streets
In our private room, the color all runs out
The color all runs out, the color all runs out
The color all runs out

D-I-V-O-R-C-E - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): C Putman, B Braddock

Lyric:
Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man
So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand
Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E
But the words we're hiding from him now
Tear the heart right out of me

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away
I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me
Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E

Watch him smile, he thinks it's Christmas
Or his 5th Birthday and he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play
I spell out all the hurtin' words and turn my head when I speak
'Cause I can't spell away this hurt that's drippin' down my cheek

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away
I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me
Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E

Beautiful Pain - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Beautiful Pain
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Craig William Northey

Lyric:
Do you wanna be honest
Or do you wanna win?
You could have it all
If you could gracefully give in

Like when a martyr go sees a martyr
Lookin' in the mirror makes you cry harder
'Bout your glitterin' ball and chain
In love, in love with your beautiful pain

Excuses and all theories
Peak themselves and die
Even when they don't hold water
You try to keep them safe and dry

An' trade your moan for a positive tone
Reassured by ads about things you own
And so we go through this again
In love, in love with your beautiful pain

If everything went runnin' smoothly
You'd soon lose who you were
Oh, the pain and hurt, for that's your real
So go on, go back to her

You packed up all your troubles
You let me play the bars
An' hiked out to the meadows
And lay down on the fragrant moss

Put down your own tree
Then meticulously built a cross right there
And stared back at me
An climbed up on it again

In love, in love with your beautiful
In love, in love with your beautiful
In love, in love with your beautiful pain

Pink Bedroom - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Pink Bedroom
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): John Hiatt

Lyric:
She paints her fingernails forbidden tones
She wants nervous youth on the telephone
He don't call, she sticks another pin in her doll
And puts it next to her stuffed animals

She got the tube top, she got the French heels
She got the blow dry, she got her eyes peeled
She got the tight jeans, seventeen magazine
She got it all, she got it all, she got it all in her pink bedroom

She thinks all her boyfriends are so dumb
She drinks Coca-Cola with Valium
Mother calls, she sticks another pin in her doll
And lets those fingers talk her into it

She got the lip gloss, she got the short shorts
She got her records and they're all imports
She got her good looks, she got her yearbook
She got it all, she got it all, she got it all in her pink bedroom

They say they got her future down at the desk
Now they're drawing blood for the grown-up test
Something crawls beneath her lily skin
And her doll is so relieved, she's lost her innocence

It was a teen game now we're serious
It's all customized, don't get curious
She got her pension and your attention
She got it all, she got it all, she got it all in her pink bedroom

Never Be You - Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

Title: Never Be You
Artist: Rosanne Cash
Composer(s): Tom Petty, Benmont M. Tench

Lyric:
Take a look at my eyes
It's been a long, long time
I used to feel so strong
When I knew you were mine

But since you let me down
I'm hard to be around
I don't know what I'm gonna do

He could never be you
He could never be you

I guess it all comes around
Baby, please don't cry
Love is gonna be a little reckless
Oh, lovers all have to stand trial

Since you let me go
There's nothing going on
I don't know what I'm gonna do

He could never be you
He could never be you
He could never be you

He knows the rules
And he plays the part
But he only has me
He don't have my heart

He could never be you

So, take a look at my eyes
No you can't hide the truth
No you don't get by on pride
It'll run over you

Since you let me down
I'm hard to be around
I don't know what I'm gonna do

He could never be you
He could never be you
He could never be you
He could never be you
He could never be you
