Away on Loan
04:01

Babe, you made me in your image,
but did that hold you in line?
A way of keeping you from leaving
a life more loosely defined.
If I called out my confession,
would that be more than you could bear?
Babe, you made me in your image,
but it don't look like you care.
And if it comes true,
if I loved you,
Would you love me on your own?
Or would you tell me
that you don't care
when your heart's away on loan?
Babe you lost out when you calmed down,
when you decided to stay.
He's a good man on his path out,
and nothing gets in his way.
You don't see me anymore;
you just see a dim reflection of yourself
when your heart's on loan to anybody else.

Man from Tambourine

Well the man from Tambourine
had a look inside his eye.
He's a man of mystery in a town that's running dry.
He just sits alone and drinks while the days turn into weeks.
It's hard but we all understand the ways of the Tambourine man.
Well the man from Tambourine
just got up an walked away.
And we thought him lost for weeks 'til he showed up in a rage.
And he stood up on the bar, said, "I haven't much to say
but listen as close as you can to this song of the Tambourine man:
I'm in love with a woman that don't love me back."
Well the man from Tambourine
doesn't speak up anymore.
He just sits there with his drink and to us he's looking worse.
But it's hard for me to lie, he's a better man than I;
his secret's too precious to keep.
Three cheers for the man Tambourine.

Deep the Ocean

Your true potential is seen by the millions.
If not by the millions, at least by me.
You've got a beauty that tempts all the Christians.
They came to praise Jesus, but you set them free.
But you don't believe me,
You don't even care.
It turns out the deeper the ocean, the longer it takes to get there.
God, if you're listening, make me a believer.
I just want to see her. I just want a kiss.
If all this I'm asking makes me sound like Peter,
call me the Betrayer, 'cause I like how it sounds.
But you don't believe me,
It's just what you do.
It turns out the deeper the ocean, the longer it takes to get through.
And I'm asking you, babe,
why do you treat me this way?
All I want is your love.
But I think I know why that just ain't enough.
But you don't believe me,
you're just hanging 'round.
It turns out the deeper the ocean, the longer it takes you to drown.

Harm

Baby, you don't understand all the things I say to you,
All the things you make me do burn me up inside.
Baby, you don't understand the simple things I say to you.
You think that you know the truth; you couldn't if you tried.
Don't you wonder why I don't mean you harm?
Baby you're the deep dark inside,
you're the man in the middle,
you're the thing that I want but I don't know why.
Baby, you don't understand it's a time of coming clean,
you constantly confide in me that you know mostly everything.
Baby if I really said all the things they say about you,
would you hear or just deny the way you feel inside?
You're the thing that I want but you're in my way.

Mary

Let me go hopeless, it's true we all know that
our hearts are just birds on a wire.
But we just can't see it, we're two mean believers,
for you, I'll keep dancing on fire.
But don't leave me, Mary.
More than an image of things that we see above,
you build and break down these walls.
Babe, I can't turn away,
Love, I just can't relate,
You know I'm drawn to your call.
We believe you're a sinner, a Sister, a saint.
You and me make the most of it everyday.
We believe in the things that we want to believe,
so don't leave me alone.
