Neal Casal - Rain, Wind And Speed Thu, 24 Feb 2000 10:56:21 +0100 "Gunnar Hedlund" "Hans Settler" Thanks Gunnar! @ARTIST: Neal Casal @ALBUM: Rain, Wind And Speed @SONG: Hands On The Plow there is nothing I can say to you now of all the years that passed away with your hands on the plow can't you see that they're gone can't you see that they're gone 20 long years down the line was all that you had to show a trail of coal dust left behind in the rain and the snow you had to lay your body down you had to lay your body down on a home-ground you've always talked about the wind and what a friend it could be they'd never hear from you again and though it's hard to believe you had to bring your brother home you had to bring your brother home it was always blood and stone that brought you to her door on a ship so far from home with only love as the law she's all you need to carry on she's all you need to carry on oh, carry on @SONG: Name In Vain they were supposed to be having such a good time the flowers were there but the guests had not yet arrived but they prayed for you anyway and they tried not to use his name in vain my eyes going bad, I had to smile to see the cry the bottom dropped out somewhere along the way but I won't drag your name around when there's no one left to turn me down expecting the worst was the best that they could do oh, just by a chance, would you ever make it alone but they prayed for you anyway yes, they prayed for you anyway but they prayed for you anyway yes, they prayed for you anyway and they tried not to use his name in vain they were supposed to be having such a good time @SONG: Break Even hanging round the diner, just trying to break even standing on a corner, just waiting to collect all of the money that you owe me hello honey, how have you been well, I didn't know that you'd been lost I couldn't see the difference between what you had and what you owed you didn't seem to care or even worry about the distance back when it mattered but now it doesn't and we won't be going too much further and we won't be breaking much new ground and we won't be feeling that much freer from here on out well, I was hoping that what we had might last if only for a while is it good to see a long lost friend or would you rather not go through the trouble to fake a smile hey, maybe next time don't even bother I'll get up to see you out and watch you through the window but I'll be thinking to myself that nothing's really changed moving in circles, somewhere behind me it used to matter but now it doesn't and we won't be going too much further and we won't be breaking much new ground and we won't be feeling that much freer from here on out ... @SONG: Virginia Dare you were here, now you're gone hoping just to find some place where you belong let me know before too long how the world's been treating you and if you've finally heard that song to make you wanna stay and if so, let it play I find it hard to see you now as if you never even really come around left behind, feeling down it's not that I'd forgotten you it's not as if I'd said a word to make you wanna stay, anyway oh, Virginia dare you're on my mind oh, Virginia dare before the flood comes rushing in we should try to find some place to start again it's only life, it's always been the same things confusing you about the life you couldn't find to make you wanna stay, what can I say oh, Virginia dare you're on my mind oh, Virginia dare @SONG: Angels On Hold when they come for you don't let them take your heart if you forget what's true just remember that everything has its start everything has its start now, take a look at these hands fields of blue, unfold to greet the three wise men who somehow forgot to put their angels on hold their angels on hold now, see those two lost gods trying everything they can to find a home in this world they'll try anything to get you to love them again to love them again so, when they come for you pointing their fingers so cold don't forget all of your friends who would always be happy to put your angels on hold ... @SONG: Annabelle it's 3 o'clock in the morning and we're still here and everybody has been talking about what went down this year, Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well I hitched a ride to the desert to see uncle Jack I spent the night in his cabin without a care of coming back, Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well you really came out of nowhere in no time at all I know it ain't my business but someone's bound to take a fall, Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well could you live a life without blood if you weren't on your own and could you wave those diamonds goodbye if you weren't so far from home so now you go to the mirror but you can't trace the broken path of your lover who ain't concerned with saving face, Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well so say farewell to the flowers that brought you here and say hello to your homeland you're coming home again my dear Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well I wish you well Annabelle Annabelle, I wish you well could you live a life without blood ... @SONG: To Look For You waiting for someone to come to my door to help me remember why I'm here a face from a picture left on my floor has told me this story so unclear to look for you to follow through, somehow gone are the lovers that I'd known before and gone are my friends from long ago above the bright blue there is no star at all around them is nothing that I've known to look for you to find you, somehow, somehow @SONG: All The Luck In The World you see the choice in front of you and though it's hard to make you feel you will come through you feel how everyone has changed but they know who you are and they're watching what you do when they say that they wish you all the luck in the world when they say that they'll miss you when you're gone you walked through their frozen worlds you knew they would come down as soon as you came to you left them standing all around the ghost that had been gone the one they thought they knew when they said that they wished you all the luck in the world when you know that they'd love to see you fall you tried to do the best you could it wasn't quite enough but what else could you do to find a way to make this real a way to find your own a way to stay true when they say that they wish you all the luck in the world when you know that they'd love to see you fall @SONG: Best To Believe everybody's leaving, they're going far away they're taking nothing that might remind them of today they're sweeping out the ashes and singing to the breeze they only know that they're best to believe they only know that they're best to believe from the highway of diamonds, I sent you all my love I sent you good news every time they wished me luck and now I'm passing by the brakeman, who says just wait and see he only knows that he's best to believe he only knows that he's best to believe he only knows that he's best to believe the peddler and the parson asked for no reprieve they only know that they're best to believe the October ladies, they're just standing still they talk of flying and being buried on a hill they're shipping out this morning, they're praying for Godspeed they only know that they're best to believe they only know that they're best to believe all of your disappointments are hoping for a rest they've asked for nothing, except wishing you the best of all that you have imagined but you never really see they only know that you're best to believe they only know that you're best to believe they only know that you're best to believe a sister and a brother might be just a dream but I only know that I'm best to believe a sister and a brother might be just a dream but I only know that I'm best to believe I only know that I'm best to believe I only know that I'm best to believe @SONG: Pilot's Song all the time you'd spent alone in your room with all the dreams you'd set aside they've all come back again and none to soon and some might say just in time but do you really need someone do you really need someone to stay the things you'd said to me, I took to heart I didn't want to and I tried to let them drift away, to stand apart and just for once take this in stride but I really need someone you know I really need someone but I really need someone you know I really need someone to stay ring that evening bell oh, when all is well what it means oh, but you can't tell if it's lost or if it's just falling down as all your pilots died one by one their ashes scattered to the wind you'll circle far'n'wide, face towards the sun you'll never fly this high again that's when you're gonna need someone you know you're gonna need someone that's when you're gonna need someone you know you're gonna need someone ... @SONG: I Will Weep No More the freeway is filling up as the sun is coming up and I, I will weep no more and my love was filling up her flesh formed a cup and I, I will weep no more and everything that lays in scatter from all of last nights chatter and I, I will weep no more the smoke that's still in turn from the cigarette that burns and I, I will weep no more so let the memories just be like the leaves around the trees and I, I will weep no more I, I will weep no more and when ugly sight means nothing to the blind I, I will weep no more and when our last fight it seems utterly unkind I, I will weep no more and when the blood slows down to a deep black sound I, I will weep no more and when the cheated groom well, he empties like the room I, I will weep no more I, I will weep no more ... and when these tired eyes can only see to the inside I, I will weep no more and when my careless tongue speaks of nothing and no one I said that I, I will weep no more and when I turn away from you and there's nothing to improve oh I, I will weep no more so let recklessness abide to everything we cannot hide 'cause I, I will weep, I will weep no more I, I will weep no more I, oh I will weep, I will weep no more
