1. Wrong Guy Am I nowhere, close to going there Close to knowing how to be You stand there waiting for a reason For the season to change on me And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be messing with And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be right for again For again Could I reach out, dare to see out For the stoned eyes upon you now Am I a poster of a man with a holster Looking out for the dangers about And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be messing with And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be right for again For again So hey could you read me a book But start at the end 'cause I don't care what took So long to break you down Did the man lose the girl before the storm left the town And don't call my name Cause I'll be right there with a bucket of hate And don't sing a song Cause it'll rain here before too long And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be messing with And you know I, I'm the wrong guy To be right for again For again 2. Pocket of Red Just like the hills rolling green Shadows paint a sunlight scene Fall on your shoulder sit on your sleeve All the company you need Just like the clouds are turning grey Saving it up for a rainy day You've got nothing, nothing to say It's all right to feel okay Of all the shades I see in you The only way the light shines through A pocket of red, a bucket of blue Of all the shades I see in you I've been around since you've been gone Not much amazes me anymore I gave up on trying to settle the score a long time ago A little bit angry and mostly sad I guess you got used to feeling bad Remember the good times we used to have Before they went away Of all the shades I see in you The only way the light shines through A pocket of red, a bucket of blue Of all the shades I see in you 3. A Touch is All This town won't look like it did back then Even when the turntable spins around like an old friend passing by Just passing by Disappearing act, disappointed view A gut reaction, telling everybody you had things to do Had things to do So just a taste, just one look, nothing more is all it took A touch is all it takes to make me look for you I could head back home, maybe one more time, for a laugh or two To ease my changing mind for now My mind for now So just a taste, just one look, nothing more is all it took A touch is all it takes to make me look for you Where'd you learn how to run Where'd you learn how to run Did everybody show you how Did everybody show you how And I'm so sure With a walking cane and hair gone away I'll tell stories of the places I just had to go but couldn't stay I just couldn't stay So just a taste, just one look, nothing more is all it took A touch is all it takes to make me look for you Just a taste, one last look, nothing more is all it took A touch is all it takes to make me look for you For you, for you, for you 4. Pittsburgh I went to Pittsburgh and I went by walking in a main street corner, store, store, store I left New England and a sun dress was talking begging me for more I picked a red rose steel town grown and cast a shadow by the river side I ate the fire and I drank the sandstone and took a rain check on my pride, pride, pride I bought a camera and took a freeze frame of an old nun, she was mortified, -fied, -fied, fied I sang a new song with an old name and it cut me deep inside, side, side And God, He named me, held me ransom, and put my picture on his shelf, shelf, shelf, I wrote some lines then I soon forgot them Cause I started to think of something, else, else I picked a red rose, steel town grown cast a shadow by the river side, riverside I went to Pittsburgh and I went by walking in a main street corner store Pride pride pride 5. Seven Dollars At the place we knew back when The drinks would flow while the fans would spin Crimson showers sinking in, through your stained glass eyes It almost never seemed quite fair Almost like we weren't even there For more than two smokes and a round Before the final call would sound So drink 'em up and hold me close Don't give up on what you know There's seven dollars in my coat So don't you worry anymore Old Man Floyd he can't help the temptation To think of the red headed girl on the bus He met at the government station Before the war let up she chased his conscience with her smile Chased his past away for awhile But it caught up with him in time To chase away his sweet old mind So drink 'em up and hold me near Don't put much into what you hear There's seven dollars in my coat So don't you worry anymore Does it make you sad to sit at home Looking out on the concrete growing Through your stained glass eyes out your window every morning You know there's nothing wrong with that We all need a place to be when the world Is looking back at us before it shakes the trees If I don't leave here too soon I might not wake up 'til noon And if I don't wake up at all Tell the boys I had a ball Drinking up and side to side Nothing more than a place to hide There's seven dollars in my coat So don't you worry anymore 6. In the Back of Your Mind She smiles as she fills my glass The regulars won't leave her alone She calls me baby, cause she don't know my name I got nowhere to go I really need to cut this hair I really need to shine these shoes And i don't know a soul around here So nobody seems to lose And i'm way too cool to cry And i'm way too young to die And i'm fine for now getting by Somewhere in the back of your mind They don't talk at all like you They don't walk the way you do And they don't do anything to turn my head a second time The drunks on the boulevard Don't know just where they are So they ask me twice and i'm always nice To show them one more time And i'm way too cool to cry And i'm way too young to die And i'm fine for now getting by Somewhere in the back of your mind Fine for now, getting by Somewhere in the back of your mind 7. I Don't Like It I don't like to be this far away from you I don't like to feel the distance start to grow I don't like to be this high Just a speck up in the sky Flying everywhere but where I want to go I don't like to lay awake in the dark On some worn out motel bed all alone I don't like to feel the cold Slipping in around my soul I don't like to feel it clinging to my bones I don't like it, baby I don't like it, baby I don't like not to know what's on your mind I don't like to have to wonder where you are I don't like to walk alone Getting bad news on the phone Seeing everything but what I want to see I don't like it, baby I don't like it, baby I don't like not to hear the things you say When you're telling all your friends about your day Taking turns to laugh out loud At whatever it's about Do you think of me when the laughter's gone I don't like it, baby I don't like it, baby 8. All Grown Up Somebody read my mind and told me I was wrong Somebody said goodbye and then they were gone Everybody had a pretty good time Everybody got along just fine Didn't we And I'm right there over and over With a blank stare oh why does it always seem That the right words, they never find you When you're all grown up like me Somebody read the news and told me it was real Nobody gets to choose the way that they feel Everybody had something to say Everybody had to see it there way Didn't we And the time fell under your finger in a cold spell Why does it always seem That the right words they never find you When you're all grown up like me 9. Come Out Tonight So come out tonight I'll be waiting for you now, it's all right The past is over Save your silences for some other day again I'm not full of sense but I'm not afraid to want you back, to want you back So pick up the phone It's been ringing there for hours all alone Oh so patiently 'Cause I'm the one who's telling you it's my fault again Won't you lend an ear 'cause I'm the one who off and went away, I went away So tell me about your relatives in Birmingham Don't tell me about the picture show Tell me about the picker with a steady hand but a long, long way to Go for what you wanted, isn't he sweet Did he buy you a souvenir? And tell me about the drummer with the steady beat who was talking in your ear Don't stand by the fire 'Cause I'm not looking for a bird on a wire To sit there waiting for me I'll be in the midnight scenery against it all again I'd be with you ordinarily, with no choice but to stop and stare, to stop and stare So tell me about your relatives in Birmingham Don't tell me about the picture show Tell me about the picker with a steady hand but a long, long way to Go for what you wanted, isn't he sweet Did he buy you a souvenir? And tell me about the drummer with the steady beat who was talking in your ear I'll be waiting for you now It's alright it's alright I'll be waiting for you now It's alright it's alright Come out tonight 10. Candy Red If you can take it I can make it go away Somewhere north But the more you know will make me grow up that day And what you do So go tell them all I'm still ten feet small Heavy on your head Candy red I'd take a drive but it wouldn't find me a place to be But they'd want me Why take the fall there when I could draw there in the sand With an empty hand Tell the ones you see to forget about me And all the funny things I said Candy red I'm over gone, did you notice It won't be long 'til you pass me by Cause you run so fast You run so fast So far Cause you make it last You make it last So long Don't waste your time just to pick up a nickel off the floor For some pretty bill Don't walk around just believin' everybody wants you more Know they will Tell your garden lie all about your night Tell the monsters in your bed Candy red 11. Last Goodbye Never thought you'd change your mind Giving up on you and me Guess you never know where the tears will fall My stiff arm kept you away My pride didn't last a day Now it don't feel that stiff at all I told you I was scared to death but I couldn't help but feel your breath Tell me how you'd seen it all I'm hanging out with the girl living down the street Who couldn't find her soul if it bounced off her own feet And hit her in the jaw Where'd you go hope you come back soon, maybe you Could meet me where I'm standing heart's in twelve thoughts in one Tell me now where have you gone Where have you gone I hope you come back soon You took me up then down Then you saw the part of me you never found Though I've been around I have never been to where it is I'm going now Thinking about our last goodbyes I'm not sure who won the prize I guess we both lost in the end Now I ain't hesitating to self-medicate I take what I can to keep my mind from waking up, waking up again Where'd you go hope you come back soon, maybe you Could meet me where I'm standing Hearts in twelve, thoughts in one Tell me now where have you gone Where have you gone I hope you come back soon heart's in twelve thoughts in one Tell me now where have you gone Where have you gone I hope you come back soon
