Gileah, The Golden Planes Lyrics

The Golden Planes

I had just hoped, it was just hope

I didn’t say you had to change your life for me, baby

And when you called I wasn’t there

I didn’t know you needed me at all or desperately

Oh the trains the golden planes

I always take the finest roads when I need to escape

No farewells no goodbyes

No kisses on the cheek for you, my sleeping friends

You know who I got this from

The gypsy did the same to me as I to you

Oh the trains the golden planes

I always take the finest roads when I need …

Oh the joke is always on me

I leave, I always leave

It is just what I do

Comfortable

I’m driving home tonight

I want to know what’s on your mind why don’t you tell me, boy

I won’t think you are stupid or ridiculous, I want you to know

That what concerns you concerns me

I wish we could move past all this

I wish you would feel comfortable and talk to me

I’m singing soft tonight, I caught that little sigh

Don’t lie, I know there’s something wrong

Just tell me, dear

Be The One

Come on and be the one

I know you are you are you are

You’re lighting up the night like a star a star a star

Like a sparkler in July

Like the holiday lights

The warmth is coming from you like the sun the sun the sun

You know I’m really hoping you’re the one the one the one

Oh love

I’ve got my fingers crossed

Come on and be the one

You know you want to pretty thing

The hands I love to watch

The face that makes me sing me sing me sing

Oh love

I’ve got my fingers crossed

So can we be together you and me and me and you

Oh, let it be forever love me honeydew, I do

Oh, love

I’ve got my fingers crossed

Wrap Your Arms Around Me

If there weren’t days and days of rain

If you would smile

If I could make all of this go away, just for awhile

Nothing takes my mind from it

Nothing takes my mind from it

Can’t go to the beach and I won’t go downtown

I don’t want to read, turn the radio down

Down down down

They’re all singing songs about love

And I can’t quite put my finger on it

They’re all singing songs about love

And I can’t quite wrap my arms around it

Wrap your arms around me baby

You know it feels so good when I am so tired

Medicine

Maybe I don’t need you like I – I thought I did

Well, there’s something in the weather and it’s creeping in my skin

I am hot and cold by turns

My fever’s burning bright

My heart is filled with blackness but I’m still chasing light

Oh, I don’t know why I let you go

My fever stopped at cold

And then you left

With all my medicine

No doctor in the world could heal me now

Maybe I don’t need you like I thought I did

And all the stories of my girlhood were just that- good fiction

Well, I am hot and cold by turns

My fever’s burning down

I am sad of being tired, I’m sick of all this turning ‘round

White Florida Sun

Grey hats, red drinks

I know I’m clearly on the brink

Or on the ledge for which is which

I don’t know anymore, I don’t know anymore

Well, it’s a Vegas kind of night

Slide the coin into the slot

I don’t know where you are, but I know where you are not

Losing is in  the air and it’s rubbing off on me

I’ve been trying to look cool, but I’m sure I look naïve

It’s hard to look cool when you’re choking on your drink

White Florida sun, Mexican sea, well,

They’re calling out to me

Sand like the snow, bodies of gold, well,

I’m leaving Losing St.

But I’ve got to let you know before I leave here

I placed every bet I had on you loving me, dear

Now I lost it all and was it just in vain

Oh, you know the house has won again

(I lost it all)

Say You Love Me Still

If this month is the darkest yet

And all we know is caving in

The mountains are but sand dunes here

And who I was has disappeared

I want this to be neverland

I want just to be loved again

I want just to be loved by you

What do we do now

The sharks are circling

What do we do now

Vultures are circling

Overhead…hold my hand

This will be our darkest trial

‘Soon be over’ on our lips

There is not enough of hate

To take what we have known away

All I knew was love from you

All my hope wrapped up in you

I want just to be loved by you

Say you love me still

The world could fall

Say you love me still

Just

I won’t be rid of my headache or my sadness today, will I

Ever be rid of my backache? Everyday stress of the working life

Just let me sit

Just let me rest my weary eyes

Unclench my fists

Just let me calm my body down

Just let me sleep here near the ground

And let me hope, just for tonight

That tomorrow everything’s going to be all right

Take me to a new place, love

Sing to me a new song, baby

Fly me to the moon, my angel

C’mon C’mon

These are good lines

I’ve got all the time in the world

To make you realize

C’mon, c’mon, pretty sweet

When the sun hits the front porch

Yellow stars light on your lids

Are you looking for honesty?

Well, c’mon, c’mon

But don’t ask me

Are you looking for honesty?

Or are you hoping for sympathy?

Well, it’s a strange thing- the consequence, the punishment,

The little white lies, the look in your eyes

The simplest things are so hard to get

And I think you’ll regret this

These are hard times

Bleeding between the lines

If you’re looking for anything

Well, c’mon, c’mon pretty sweet

For Things Beyond

For things beyond I know they are I do not need to see

For thing inside the treasures hid the secrets that I keep

For things behind the bridges burned and those I wish I’d saved

For things above a thousand tongues the angels and the saints

The chaos of love

The fury of life

(The sameness of death

the beauty of truth

the glory of God…)
