Linda Ronstadt : Hasten Down the Wind

Teksty


1. LOSE AGAIN

Save me
Free me
From my heart this time
Well the train's gone
Down the track and I'm
I'm left behind

But nothing can save me from this ball and chain
I've made up my mind I would leave today
But you're keeping me going I know it's insane
'Cause I'll love you and lose again

Well the heart calls
And the mind obeys
Oh it knows better than me baby
And if I hold on for one more day
Oh maybe maybe he'll be true

But nothing can save me from this ball and chain
I've made up my mind I would leave today
But you're keeping me going I know it's insane
'Cause I'll love you and lose again

Nothing can save me from this ball and chain
I've made up my mind I would leave today
But you're keeping me going I know it's insane
'Cause I'll love you and lose again
Woah I'll love you and lose again


2. THE TATTLER

Whenever you find a man
That loves every woman he sees
There's always some kind of woman
That's putting him up a tree
Well that kind of man he ain't got
As much sense as a mule
You know everyone don't love you
They're just playing you for a fool

Oh no it's not hard for you to understand
True love can be such a sweet harmony
If you do the best that you can

Now if you marry the wrong kind of woman
And you get where you can't agree
Well you just as well forget your plan
Let that woman be
But a man ought to make a good husband
And quit trying to lead a fast life
Going about dressing up other women
Won't put clothes on his own wife

Oh no it's not hard for you to understand
True love can be such a sweet harmony
If you do the best that you can

Well there's lots of good women want to marry
And they want to live well at home
But they're 'fraid they'll get hold of some rowdy man
Can't let other women alone
And there's lots of good men want to marry
And they want to live well at home
But every time they turn their back there's a man there
Asking darling is he gone

Oh no it's not hard for you to understand
True love can be such a sweet harmony
If you do the best that you can
True love can be such a sweet harmony
If you do the best that you can


3. IF HE'S EVER NEAR

They say just once in life
You find someone that's right
But the world looks so confused
I can't tell false from true

And love's so hard to find
In this state of mind
Oh I hope I'll know him
I hope I'll know him
If he's ever near

Well it seemed the time had come
I thought you were the one
When I looked into your eyes
It never looked like lies

And love's so hard to see
When it's in front of me
Oh I hope I'll know it
I hope I'll know it
If it's ever near

And love's so hard to see
When it's in front of me
Oh I hope I'll know it
I hope I'll know it
If it's ever near

Well I know that in my time
I'll have it sweet and fine
But it won't add up to much
Unless I feel his touch

And love's so hard to find
So I guess I'll just give up trying
Oh I hope I'll know him
I hope I'll know him
If he's ever near


4. THAT'LL BE THE DAY

Well that'll be the day
When you say goodbye
That'll be the day
When you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave
You know it's a lie
Cause that'll be the day that I die

Well that'll be the day
When you say goodbye
That'll be the day
When you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave
You know it's a lie
Cause that'll be the day that I die

Well you gave me all your loving
And your turtle doving
All your hugs and kisses
And your money too
You know you love me baby
Still you tell me baby
That someday when I'll be true

Well that'll be the day
When you say goodbye
That'll be the day
When you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me
You know it's a lie
Cause that'll be the day that I die

When Cupid shot his dart
He shot it at your heart
So if we ever part then I'll be blue
You kiss and hold me
And you tell me boldy
Well that someday that I'll be true

Well that'll be the day
When you say goodbye
That'll be the day
When you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me
You know it's a lie
Cause that'll be the day that I die

Ah that'll be the day wooh-ooh-ooh
That'll be the day woo-ooh-ooh
That'll be the day woo-ooh-ooh
That'll be the day when I die


5. LO SIENTO MI VIDA

Lo siento mi vida
Yo se que ya termino
Corazones quebrados
Esperanza que se fue
Cuando brille la luna
Yo se que no dormiras
Ni tu
Ni yo
Ya ha llegado el triste pesar
Debemos siempre separarnos

La noche que te fuiste
Cambio mi pobre vida
Quedo mi alma triste
Pensando en mi dolor
Cuando brille la luna
Yo se que no dormiras
Ni tu
Ni yo
Ya ha llegado el triste pesar
Debemos siempre separarnos

I wait for the night to pass and turn to day
I can't make this feeling go away
'Cause I get so weak when the day is through
And I think of you
I'm gonna see it through

Lo siento mi vida
Yo se que ya termino
Corazones quebrados
Esperanza que se fue
Cuando brille la luna
Yo se que no dormiras
Ni tu
Ni yo
Ya ha llegado el triste pesar
Debemos siempre separarnos
Siempre separar


6. HASTEN DOWN THE WIND

She tells him she thinks she wants to be free
He tells her he doesn't understand
She takes his hand
And tells him nothing's working out the way she planned

She's so many women
He can't find the one who was his friend
He's hanging on to half a heart
But he can't have the restless part
So he tells her to hasten down the wind

Now he agrees he thinks she ought to be free
Now she says she'd rather be with him
Oh it's just a whim
That she's designed to keep him out there on that limb

She's so many women
He can't find the one who was his friend
He hanging on to half a heart
But he can't have the restless part
So he tells her to hasten down the wind
He tells her to hasten down the wind
He tells her to hasten down the wind


7. RIVERS OF BABYLON

By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he went
When he remembered Zion
For the wicked carry us away
Captivity require from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song in a strange land
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight
Over I


8. GIVE ONE HEART

Love I am told is the deepest mystery
Harder to fathom than any sea
More precious than all the earth and sky
But nobody can tell you why

Give one heart
Get back two
That's the paradox of I love you
So when you give your heart
You get one too
That's the paradox of I love you

If it is love for which you've cried
You know how it feels on moon's dark side
If your baby love's you right
You can have skyrockets any old night

Give one heart
Get back two
That's the paradox of I love you
So when you give your heart
You get one too
That's the paradox of I love you

And you can't stop saying it
I love you
Can't stop saying it
I love you
Keep on saying it saying it
I won't stop until you say it too

Love can be gentle soft and tame
Or so rough you wouldn't know its name
Shy and wild like a runaway child
Storms of love always end up mild

Give one heart
Get back two
That's the paradox of I love you
So when you give your heart
You get one too
That's the paradox of I love you

Give your heart
Get back two
That's the paradox of I love you
So when you give your heart
Get one too
That's the paradox of I love you


9. TRY ME AGAIN

Well I drove past your house last night
And I looked in the window
Lately I ain't been feeling right
And I don't know the cure, no
Still I can't keep from wondering
If I still figure in your life
Could you take me back and try me
Try me again
Could you try me again

I drove around in this lonesome town
Felt just like a beginner
Friends I saw they just brought me down
They're so cynical and bitter
Well I guess I'm just like them now
I never thought I'd turn out like that
Could you take me back and try me
Try me again
Could you try me again

Well you say that I cheated
I was not what you needed
Well you're not being kind
When you say you tried
And you know you lied
My hands are tied
Woah, try me again

I'm gonna knock on your door
Till you say you'll come back to me
And love me some more
Oh oh try me again
Will you try me again
Woah, try me again


10. CRAZY

I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling blue
I know you'd love me as long as you wanted
Then someday leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why should I let myself worry
Wondering
What in the world did I do

I'm crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for crying
And crazy for trying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Worry
Why do I let myself worry
Wondering
What in the world did I do

I'm crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you


11. DOWN SO LOW

When you went away I cried
Cried for so long
And I wanted you to stay
Ah but that was all wrong

The pain you left behind
Has become part of me
And it's burned out a hole
Where my love used to be

But it's not losing you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place

Well you know I love you
But that wasn't enough
We both fell apart
When things got too tough
And I've learned how to give now
But what good
But what good would that do
No one can touch me
The way you used to do

And it's not losing you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place

Well I know your opinion
Of me is not good
Please try to understand
That I'd change
Well I'd change if I could
And this coldness inside me
Well it's starting to build
And a woman can't be a woman
Unless she's fulfilled

But it's not losing you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place
There's no one can


12. SOMEONE TO LAY DOWN BESIDE ME

There's somebody waiting alone in the street
For someone to walk up and greet
Here you are all alone in the city
Where's the love that you took to your side
Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night

And they'll say
Woman sweet woman
Please come home with me
You're shining and willing and free
But your love is a common occurrence
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that may be what I need

Is someone to lay down beside me
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside me
You're the story of my life

Someone to lay down beside me
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside me
You're the story of my life

The morning is breaking
The street lights are off
The sun will soon share all the cost
Of a world that can be sort of heartless
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that may be all you'll get

Is someone to lay down beside you
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside you
You just can't ask for more
