Well, I stand up next to a mountain
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well I pick up all pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand
Yeah

Cause I'm a Voodoo Child
Lord knows I'm a Voodoo Child baby

If there's something you need
All that you'll never, ever, ever had
I know you've never had it
Ohh honey, don't you just sit there crying
Don't you sit there feeling bad
No, no, no

You better get up
Now don't you understand?
And raise your hand
Hey, hey, hey
I said raise your hand

Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baaaaaaaaby!

But baby (Baby)
Remember (Remember)
It's my life and I'll do what I want
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
Show me I'm wrong
Hurt me sometime
But some day I'll treat you real fine

When I was a young boy
Said put away those young boy ways
Now that I'm gettin' older, so much older
I long for those young boy days

With a girl like you
With a girl like you

 

Lord knows there are things we can do, baby
Just me and you
Come on and make it, uh

 

Hurts so good
Come on baby, make it hurt so good
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
You make it hurt so good

Oh, but he watches her sadly
How can he tell her he loves her?
Yes, he would give his heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at he

[Verse 2: Astrud Gilberto]
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes he smiles
But she doesn't see

I wanna fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle, let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
'Til I'm free
Oh Lord, through the revolution

One fine morning, girl, I'll wake up
Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Go outside and feel the sunshine
Then I know I'll realize
That as long as you love me, girl, we'll fly

 

And on that mornin' when I wake up
I'll see your face inside a cloud
See your smile inside a window
Hear your voice inside a crowd
Calling, "Come with me baby and we'll fly"

You see she was gonna be an actress
And I was gonna learn to fly
She took off to find the footlights
And I took off for the sky


And here, she's acting happy
Inside her handsome home
And me, I'm flying in my taxi
Taking tips
(And getting stoned!)

You said you were an actress
Yes, I believe you are
I thought you'd be a star
So I drank up all the money,
Yes, I drank up all the money,
With these phonies in this Hollywood bar,
These friends of mine in this Hollywood bar
 

Loneliness and frustration
We both came down with an acute case
And when the lights came up at two
I caught a glimpse of you
And your face looked like something
Death brought with him in his suitcase

Caught a glimpse of your eye
Everything freezes and I'm in an
Old photograph, I'm back from the start
Caught a glimpse of your eye
Everything freezes and I'm
I'm ready to give you
My heart

Everyone can see we're together
As we walk on by (and)
And we fly just like birds of a feather
I won't tell no lie (all)

 

All of the people around us, they say, yeah, yeah
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We're giving love in a family dose

 

We are family
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
I got all my sisters with me
Woah, ah, woah, ah, ah

I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride 
That's all that I have left
So let me hide 
The tears and the sadness you gave me 
When you said goodbye

Posted

… I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me, and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

 

… I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you

She said "Where ya been?" I said "No place special"
She said "You look different" I said "Well, I guess"
She said "You been gone" I said "That's only natural"
She said "You gonna stay?" I said "If you want me to, yes."

Isis oh Isis you're a mystical child
What drives me to you is what drives me insane
I still can remember the way that you smiled
On the fifth day of May in the drizzling rain

Oh, what a night
Late December back in sixty three
What a very special time for me
As I remember, what a night


Oh, what a night, you know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same
What a lady, what a night

Posted

Throughout the night
When there's no direct light
And a thin veil of clouds
Keeps the stars out of sight
I can smell the colors
Outside on my lawn
The moist green organic
That my feet tread upon
