Thanks THAT PLACE

How can I convince you it's me I don't like

When I've always been distant

and I've always told lies for love

I'm bound by these choices so hard to make

I'm bound by the feeling so easy to fake

None of this is real enough to take me from you

Oh I've got reservations

about so many things

but not about you

I know this isn't what you were wanting me to say

How can I get closer and be further away

From the truth that proves it's beautiful to lie

I've got reservations

about so many things

but not about you

I've reservations

about so many things

but not about you

not about you

not about you

not about you

it's not about you

Wowsers,

here we are, home again

where did it start and where will it finish?

where does the time go?

(yeah, I'm too lazy to post it all)

Well, thanks to everyone who made my times there sooooo amazing. There was always tons of laughter and music. Thanks for putting up with the snow beast, she really needed a home. ;)

I will always cherish (not necessarily remember) the many Saturday nights and Sunday mornings with all of you. I definitely bonded with the basement, and I'm glad I had at least one visit with the attic. Meggo, I can't wait to see the pictures!

Thanks to the many boys of 40 Main for opening up your home to us for so many years. You da best!!

Well, Ive been haunted in my sleep

Youve been starring in my dreams

Lord I miss you

Ive been waiting in the hall

Been waiting on your call

When the phone rings

Its just some friends of mine that say,

Hey, whats the matter man?

Were gonna come around at twelve

With some puerto rican girls that are just dyin to meet you.

Were gonna bring a case of wine

Hey, lets go mess and fool around

You know, like we used to

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah

Oh everybody waits so long

Oh baby why you wait so long

Wont you come on! come on!

Ive been walking in central park

Singing after dark

People think Im crazy

Ive been stumbling on my feet

Shuffling through the street

Asking people, whats the matter with you boy?

Sometimes I want to say to myself

Sometimes I say

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

I guess Im lying to myself

Its just you and no one else

Lord I wont miss you child

Youve been blotting out my mind

Fooling on my time

No, I wont miss you, baby, yeah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah

Main Street Eyes

by Iggy Pop

I work so hard, so don't trip me up

Shakin' a leg like the tail o' the pup

I'm payin' dues till I register heat

Sure hope I don't end up on the street

Home, boy

Home, boy

Everybody needs a home

Home, boy

Home, boy

Everybody needs a home

So many people rise and fall

Who's lookin' after you at all?

Nobody knows anybody at all

Strangers in paradise down at the mall

Home, boy

Home, boy

Everybody needs a home

Home, boy

Home, boy

Everybody needs a home

The life we live is tricky tricky

I love my home, and my family

Who's gonna love you when the

Mountain gets steep?

We're gonna make it-in a Jeep

This whole country is scared of failure.

My head keeps trying to sell me ambition.

But in my heart, I want self-respect.

There's a conflict.

Boy, I feel so outgunned today

But I'll get up and fight back, anyway

You and I aare not huge mainstream stars

But unlike them, we're really what we are

We got Main Street eyes

Watchin' as the big boys roll by

Under rotten television skies

We got Main Street eyes

I saw a kitten squashed in the street

I read about a plastic surgeon and his art collection.

We are played for suckers all the time

Phony rock and roll

It's a crime

I don't want to dip myself in trash

I don't want to give myself for cash

We got Main Street eyes

Tryin' to do what's decent with our lives

Under funny television skies

We got Main Street eyes

Walkin' around sometimes

I see a tension under the surface

People are just about ready to explode.

So hold me, and trust me

I love you, don't worry.

Keep your Main Street eyes

Keep your Main Street eyes

Keep your Main Street eyes

Eyes

Eyes

Many thanks to everyone who had a hand in making that place special.

Good times.
