All the Love You Need
Release Date: May 20th, 2008
I won't stand in her way
Spread her wings and she'll fly
You know it's hard to be free
When you slave to get by
This time
I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
You are baby
I don't care what she says
Ain't no love when you're poor
I can't get to my bed
She won't unlock the door
This time
I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
You are baby
On my way I roll on
Wipe the dust off my shoes
Greyhound bus run till dawn
Flower child dust my blues
This time
I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
When she's checkin' in, I'll be checking out
I'm gonna find myself another friend.
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
You are baby
It's painful to realize
I've been on the back
I've been hypnotized awhile
Troubled by the stack of untraveled miles
I found out too little
I found out too late
Cruel fate
Memories of what went wrong
Like a meteor returns to home
Kinda steals away your life, away your song
I'll sing mine anyway... sing it
So called destiny
But you won't let it go
Until you win Miss Universe
And then you won't reap what you sow
There must be someone to blame, yeah
Cruel fate
If promises could punish you
If thoughts could do damage to you
You can run but they'll follow you
But you won't let it go
Until you win Miss Universe
And then you won't reap what you sow
No one ever escapes
We all suffer the same
We found out too late
Cruel fate
Diamonds are forever
But people are more like little flowers
Diamonds are forever
But people are more like little flowers
Growing in the crash of the loud traffic noise
Of desperate western relationships
Past life regressions, romantic depressions
Midnight walks down repeating sunsets
You killed me with the truth of my relationship
Wrecked ever since you sunk my battleship
This is the story of the whole world, yeah
Everyone, where we came from
Trying to get some
Shika dow shika dow dow...
She took my hand and said to me
Let me let you in on a secret
You've already got all the love you're needing
In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
You've already got all the love you need yeah
We wanted each other so bad
We wanted to possess
We wanted success in the area of undress
We wanted to own we were so tired of renting
We wanted to attack we were so tired of defending
Of moving on the motorcycles of life
Without a seatbelt, without a tail on a kite
Diamonds are forever
But people are more like little flowers
More like September, October
November, December
More like the minutes to the hour
She took my hand and said to me
Let me let you in on a secret
You've already got all the love you're needing
In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
Already got all the love you need
I can't get enough, I can't pay enough
Don't mess with my conditional reality
Reward and punishment mentality
Always gets the best of me
I wound you, you wound me
I need you , you need me
I want you, yeah you want me
She took my hand and said to me
Let me let you in on a secret
You've already got all the love you're needing
In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
You've already got all the love you're needing
Hey Hey
Already got all the love you needed
In your heart, in your mind, in your imagination
You've already got all the love you're needing
You got love in the cashbox baby
now give it to me
Diamonds on the dresser
Bring 'em on here you see
Didn't your momma tell ya
It's better to give than receive
I've been stealing your love
Bring it all night long
Didn't I give you that golden necklace
What about that golden ring
I sure do think you're precious
But you don't trust me
Didn't your daddy tell ya
It's better to give than to receive
I've been stealing your love
Bring it all night long
You got something in the register, baby
Let's open that sucker up
Jewels on the nightstand so luxurious
Didn't your brother tell ya
It's better to live than to be dust
I've been stealing your love
Bring it all night long
Rappers, troubadours sneaking in the back door
Crazy fortune teller drinking on the kitchen floor
All night
Racing down Division at a hundred and three
Her singing it was rapture, it was ecstasy
Oh yeah
Madam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of Hope
Yeah, she was the messenger of
Guiding light and lovin' inspiration
She could break you down with sheer imagination
Oh yeah now
Her old man was so cruel and vicious
One day he went too far and lord, he got his
Madam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of Hope
Messenger of Love
Shine your light on
Makin' love in the setting sun
She's looking at me like I am the one
Wild and free but with nowhere to run
Shine your light on
The trapped, the broken, the innocent ones
Baby we were over before we'd begun
I'll be running for you till my freedom comes
Freedom comes
Shine on, Shine on...
When she pulled the trigger
I could hear it ring out for miles and miles
From the circus where we grew up
Your head turned to me
I was caught up in the light
Shaken by the sound
The confession in her eyes
From when we met
And I was sentenced for life
I know we will never forget
Makin' love in the setting sun
She's looking at me like I am the one
Wild and free but with nowhere to run
Shine your light on
The trapped, the broken, the innocent ones
Baby we were over before we'd begun
I'll be running for you till our freedom comes
Freedom comes
Shine on
How can I know that it's real now?
How can I know that it's real now?
Don't wanna sleep 'cause you wanna play
Don't wanna talk 'cause you wanna kiss now
Get this party under way
Sugar shake down to the earth let's sing now
Sweet soul dancing underway
The system the man can't hijack this now
Let feminine love rule the day
All that woman you can't resist now
Ever since ya pulled me under
You're the only one I'm dreaming of
Yeah you are the seventh wonder
Help me, I'm fallin' in love
Take a look around the world today
Can you feel it in the air now
Revolution in the records that play
In the beats they're shooting through the streets now
Tragic kings have lost their way
It's you and me and your mother that pays
Every soldier is coming on home
And they're playing it through the streets now
Every soldier is coming on home
They got it cranking through the streets now
Ever since ya pulled me under
You're the only one I'm dreaming of
Yeah you are the seventh wonder
Help me, I'm fallin' in love
Lightning strike with a lucky hit
Shaking up the disconnect to respect
Sexual switch
Turned on, shined on, showered on, flow:

Ever since ya pulled me under
Ever since ya pulled me under
You're the only one I'm dreaming of

Ever since they pulled us under now
I light your world
Yes I painted it with sunshine
But all you see is tall gray clouds
You say your freedom is everything
You need time
But all you really want is out
I don't know why you're trying
to make it hard now
Put your back up against the wall
Over time I'll forget about your charms now
It' ain't so hard for me to take the fall
You can't arrange your life so there
Ain't no pain and everything is fine
I see you hang your head down
Can't believe you let yourself unwind
You're always calling on me
Wrap yourself around my shoulders
We make love like perfect strangers
Spill your glass, tell me that you're mine
How easy love decides
You're acting cold I think you understand I need you
To give affection, to keep me warm
I ain't trying to hold you down, nor to bleed you
Or give you shelter from the storm
You can't arrange your life so there
Ain't no blame and no one's left behind
I see you change your heart now
Can't believe you let yourself unwind
I'm always falling for you
Wrap myself around your fingers
We make love like perfect strangers
Spill your glass and tell me that you're mine
How easy love
It's so easy how love decides
We'll never know the reasons
Things have ended up this way
You had to turn the page
But I'm still writing of my love for you
On and on
Just one kiss and then you knew
Still you left me without a trace
Where are you tonight?
Do you feel me wanting you
Desire, makes my heart ache
Empty runway
Now I know that there's life after you
Over you
Spanish highway
Driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you
The first time that I fell for you
Your eyes read me the book of your heart
Speaking in recurring dreams
Visions and mysteries of how you are my star
Empty runway
Now I know that there's life after you
Over you
Spanish highway
Driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you
Hey now my light is shining on
Every cloud is gone
Hey everything is singing of your love for me
On and on
Empty runway
Now I know that there's life after you
Over you
Spanish highway
Driving back to what belongs to you
Longs for you
I long for you
We've waited long for this day to come
For all the midnight lights
we've burnt into the morning sun
I can't wait to see your sweet mysteries
The moon, the stars, the sun
The universe, the galaxies
Fly home on your silver wings
With your new song for the world to sing
Light this candle, make it right
Yes you can change the world
True love discovers and
She stands, and she won't back down
Yes you can change the world
There is no other one
Believe and you will find blue sky
Gonna chase the dream, we're gonna set it free
Gonna make it real, gonna make it shine
Gonna keep it grooving on
One small stepping stone
Baby we're not alone
Gonna take you farther, higher, faster
Then you're outta sight
You've got my flame in your fire baby
You've got my twinkle in your eye
Reaching for the distant light
Yes you can change the world
True love discovers and
She stands, and she won't back down
Yes you can change the world
There is no other one
Believe and you will find blue sky
Don't you change too late, hey, yeah yeah
Or fade away
My stars won't wait
Yes you can change the world
True love discovers and
She stands, and she won't back down
Yes you can change the world
There is no other one
Believe and you will find blue sky
While under a silvery moon
A neon flower born of the desert
Love to touch her body of water
Flicker in the morning light
While she was still in the mood
shaken up like a deer in the headlights
Crosscut saw, whiskey and moonshine
Baby don't you spill the wine
Under a silvery moon
You can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you
Sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on your own
While under a silvery moon
Sick and tired of the country and western
Get the Eldorado back on the pavement
Marguerita where'd ya learn to drive?
She said it's all about the rhythm and blues
Pompadours, taxi confessions
The kind of speed that'll get you arrested
Go on use it baby don't be shy
Under a silvery moon
You can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you
Sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on your own
Surrender and you're gone
Time at last you're on your own
Don't give up now
You're almost home
While under a silvery moon
Boxcar Willie's guide to the galaxy
Jack Kerouac's jumping on ecstasy
Chugging down the central line
Elvis and the hullabaloo
Truck got busted just an hour 'fore midnight
Mississippi mud, the river is too wide...
Under a silvery moon
You can't find your way back home
Keep her shining on you
Sweet surrender and you're gone
Free at last you're on your own
Yeah you're almost gone
Under a silvery moon light my way
Oh you're never gonna make it home
Don't give up now baby
Desperate chances and accidental meetings
Spin out your life as your stars collide
And I forget your name
I was coming down like
Down like sheets of silver
Streets like wild rivers cry
Lightning thunder
Flash across the buildings
Plays on our roof tonight
Sunshine no it ain't for me
'Twas pouring on the day you came
Now that I'm yours
I finally learned to see the beautiful rain
I skidded out, I lost control
Don't turn away, turn away, turn away darlin'
I won't let go
Took our chances as
We were lost and drifting
Without words to say
When the storm comes
With tales for all our children
How we crashed our cars that day
Sunshine, no it ain't for me
'Twas pouring on the day you came
Now that I'm yours
I finally learned to see
I'm drenched with gladness
Dance with you madly in the
Beautiful rain
Sugar coating got a sweet tooth
there something between fiction and a cool white lie
just over my mental breakdown baby
Need a sugar buzz, yeah a real sugar high
Big brother, rock star, hells kitchen
Another ex-member of the ex-wives club
So you think you can dance, lose your inhibitions
Once you start with me well you'll never get enough
Are you addicted to the real thing
Unadulterated chocolate fudge
Sweet tooth, sugar buzz
Deal Or No Deal, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy
Fake fur, trick candle, magic
