How Much of My Love Lyrics

Ribbons of highways
Ribbons of gold
Ribbons of time spent
Trying to unfold
Roads untraveled
Roads underground
Roads for my love
All around

Tonight I'm dancing alone
The world left me on my own
I'm not the first
I'm not the last
Rolling stone

Drilling for oil
Mining for coal
Wish I could just harness
This fire in my soul

Tonight I'm dancing alone
The world left me on my own
I'm not the first
I'm not the last
Rolling stone

How long to die?
How long to live?
How much of my love
Can I give?

Tonight I'm dancing alone
The world left me on my own
I'm not the first
I'm not the last rolling stone

Tonight I'm dancing alone...

You say you love me

You're thinking twice

Second thoughts

Don't feel too nice

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

Everybody

Talking trash

Everybody else

Digging for cash

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

I'm tongue-tied

What I'm trying to say

I'm so tired

Of being treated this way

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

Double barrel

Straight to hell

I'm out of here

Like a shotgun shell

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

Call my name

Wave your hands in the air

Guess what...

Baby I don't care

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

Broken hearted

Not broken down

I'm on my way

To a higher ground

I'm gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

Turn around

Baby I'll be gone

I WANT IT BACK
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2011

I want it back

No matter what you say

No matter what you do

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

I want it back

The sun, the clouds

& the pure morning dew

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

Here it comes, here it comes, here comes my love

I want it back

I want to walk

Slowly down the avenue

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

I want it back

Before the rain

The sound of the birds coming through

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

I want it back

The playing field

When first it was new

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

I want it back

The deep singing green

In the red, white, and blue

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

Here it comes, here it comes, here comes my love

I want it back

The creed in the sand

The ocean drew

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

I want it back

I want to give

It all back too

I want it back

& I'm laying all my love

Down for you

BLUE RIDER
~ by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2011

Hey blue rider

Where have you gone?

Still sitting on the back

Of your truck in the dawn?

How are you?

Where did you go?

Are you still kicking up dust

On country roads?

Yeah I know

I've fallen behind

But I can't keep you

Off my mind

Your sweet words

Ringing true

The loving, baby,

Is inside of you

Here it is

The latest news...

They killed rock n roll

When they ditched the blues

Here I am

Still running on fumes

Are you still shooting your needles

To the moon?

Oh man

It's been a while

Did you ever get used to

Going the extra mile?

Yeah I know

I'm falling behind

But I can't keep you

Off my mind

Your sweet words

Ringing true

The loving

Is inside of you

Hey blue rider

Out in the rain

Do you still dance at night

To the distant train?

Do you still sway back & forth

Whenever you stand?

Do you still burn your prayers

In an old tin can?

Yeah I know

I'm falling behind

But I can't keep you
Off my mind

Your sweet words

Ringing true

The loving, baby,

Is inside of you

Oh baby it's such

A quiet game

They take your heart

But they don't change your name

Yeah I know

I've fallen behind

But I cant keep you

Off my mind

Your sweet words

Ringing true

The loving

Is inside of you

The loving is inside of you

The loving is inside of you

The loving is inside of you

NIGHT ALL DAY
~by Pieta Brown/Copyright 2011

All of my life

My whole life through

I've been drowning in your lies

& then running back to you (x2)

I could drink all night

I could drink all day

But I never could drink

All those lies away (x2)

I don't want to hurt you

Just want to take your pain

I'm going to the devil's house

I'm gonna call his name (x2)

Hey Mr. Devil

I've got something for you

I'm just a lonesome dove

But I've got something for you (x2)

You can't have my soul

You can't have me

But you can have my lovin'

If you'll just set him free

Yeah all of my life

My whole life through

I've been drowning in your lies

& then running back to you

CLOSING TIME
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2011

See the arrow

Up to the sun

Hell in the prairie

All systems undone

My coat's from china

My shoes are blue

Head full of worry

Will it wreck my heart too?

It's closing time

With nothing better to do

Television

Don't turn me on

Is something missing?

Or is it just gone?

Stand still at midnight

Dreaming of you

This crazy feeling

Can you feel it too?

It's closing time

With nothing better to do

Silver dagger

With a golden hue

Hang my head over

I'm still missing you

It's closing time

With nothing better to do

Closing time

With nothing better to do

I DON'T MIND
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2011

Little rosewood casket

& an empty kiss

I didn't picture

Days like this

My mamma told me

When I was young

Hold your head up high

Don't wait on any one

But I don't mind

I don't mind this old world

Some days are good

Some get bad

I still remember

Those days I had

Stranded on the sidelines

Heart full of rage

& just an old hound dog

Asking my age

But I don't mind

I don't mind this old world

Everywhere I turn

There's some kind of screen

Trick ponies and old hogs

Spilling gasoline

Then the money dogs chase you

& that don't seem right

After dreaming all day

& working all night

But I don't mind

I don't mind this old world
Cheap smokes, fireworks

Whiskey & worms

So many ways you can

Live on your own terms

The sun is blazing hot now

& the water did rise

But I still have

Tears of joy in my eyes

But I don't mind

I don't mind this old world

If I had one wish

I would make it true

I would save this

Old world for you

It's been said

Many times before

But I don't think it will hurt

To say it once more

But I don't mind

I don't mind this old world

No, I don't mind

I don't mind this old world

GLORY TO GLORY
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2011

I've got a name

It's mine for now

I made it this far

I made it somehow

& I'm gonna walk

Through the valley of peace

I'm not afraid

To tell the story

I'm gonna give

This world my love

I'm gonna live

Glory to glory

I have a friend

I have a home

Just like you

I'm not alone

& I'm gonna walk

Through the valley of peace

I'm not afraid

To tell the story

I'm gonna give

This world my love

I'm gonna live

Glory to glory

Glory to glory

Glory on high

Glory sweet glory

Don't pass me by

I have a table

A chair on each side

Let's talk a while

Yeah the water is wide

Across the bridge

Through a gate of gold

Surrender my sorrow

Let glory take hold

& I'm gonna walk

Through the valley of peace

I'm not afraid

To tell the story

I'm gonna give

This world my love

I'm gonna live

Glory to glory

SO MANY MILES
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2010

Smokestack lights

Flashing red

Blues falling

Down in my head

Somebody knocking

There's no door

Just a note

Laying on the floor

You're going away

I'm leaving too

Is this the last

I'll be seeing of you?

A million miles

Is a long way to go

But I've been down

This road before

Smokestack lights

Flashing red

Blues falling

Down in my head

NO WORDS NOW
~by Pieta Brown/ Copyright 2010

No words

No words now

There's not much use

In wondering how

Oh you

You serenaded my mind

& I never was the easy kind

Something started

It was long ago

Somewhere

I will never know

There are so many things

I can't put my finger on

Like the faded pulse

Of an ancient dawn

& a wandering sky

Giving way to dust

Over fields of plastic

With no chance of rust

No words

No words now

There's not much use

In wondering how

Oh you

You serenaded my mind

& I never was the easy kind

Here in the dark

A magnetic stream

& the aftermath

With a wicked sheen

There's sun in the country

There's blood on the cement

I can sing my songs

But I cant pay my rent

But on a night like this

Time holding still

I can still close my eyes

& listen to those hills

No words

No words now

There's not much use

In wondering how

Oh you

You serenaded my mind

& I never was the easy kind

Oh you...

You serenaded my mind

& I never was the easy kind
