Southern Central Rain
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Did you never call? i waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city on the river there is a girl without a dream
(chorus)
I'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry
Eastern to mountain, third party call, the lines are down
The wise man built his words upon the rocks
But i'm not bound to follow suit
The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine
I'm sorry, i'm sorry
Did you never call? i waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine
(repeat chorus)

SO. Central Rain
Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city on the river has a girl without a dream
I'm sorry
Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down
The wise man wrote his words upon the rocks
But I'm not bound to follow suit
The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine
Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The ocean sang, the cities wash away
Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine

Time After Time Etc. (live Medley, 1987-09-14)
Ask the girl of the hour by the water towers watch
If your friends took a fall, are you obligated to follow
Time after time after time
If your tired and youre tried you can find me in my room
You can stay if you want and the third time you cant lose
Time after time after time
Time after time after time
If the bulls on his hooves, when you gather friends by the tower
If you try to refuse, will they judge your worth by the hour?
Time after time after time
Time after time after time
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is coming down
Pouring down on me
I come to you defenses down with the trust of a child
Did you never call? I waited for your call

The city on the river there is a girl without a dream
Im sorry, Im sorry
Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down
The wise man built his words upon the rocks
But Im not bound to follow suit
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city in the mountains there is a boy without a dream
Im sorry, Im sorry
Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The ocean sang, the conversations dimmed
Go buy yourself another dream, this choice wasnt mine
Im sorry, Im sorry, Im sorry, Im sorry
I would swim the ocean deep
Climb the highest mountain peak
I come to you defenses down with the trust of a child

The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
This here is the place I will be staying
There isnt a number. you can call the pay phone
Let it ring a long, long, long, long time
If I dont pick up, hang up, call back, let it ring some more
If I dont pick up, pick up. the sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in a coil
(chorus)
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
There are scratches all around the coin slot
Like a heartbeat, baby, trying to wake up,
But this machine can only swallow money
You cant lay a patch by computer design
Its just a lot of stupid, stupid signs
Tell her,
Tell her she can kiss my ass, then laugh and say that you were only kidding
That way shell know that its really, really, really, really me, me
(repeat chorus)
Baby, instant soup doesnt really grab me
Today I need something more sub-sub-sub-substantial
A can of beans or blackeyed peas, some nescafe and ice,
A candy bar, a falling star, or a reading of doctor seuss
(repeat chorus)
The cat in the hat came back, wrecked a lot of havoc on the way,
Always had a smile and a reason to pretend
But their world has flat backgrounds and little need to sleep but to dream
The sidewinder sleeps on his back
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her

When Im With You
Taking my time
Im trying to leave the memories of you behind
Im gonna be fine
As soon as I get your picture right out of my mind
[chorus]
I wanna feel the way you make me feel when Im with you
I wanna be the only hand, you need to hold on to
But everytime I call you dont have time
I guess Ill never get to call you mine
For nothing at all, I know theres a million reasons
Why I shouldnt call
With nothing to say, could easily make this
Conversation last all day
[chorus]
Another lesson I didnt get to learn
Your my obsession
Ive got nowhere to turn
[chorus (repeat 2x)]

Eastern calls from way out wherever
Away I go, anchored in that beat
Thirsting for us too, threes a no man, but

Finger lead them up, crime to rape the beat
Thirsting for us too, threes a no man, but

Here's A Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)
You say you were wrong to ever leave me alone
Now you're sorry, you're lonesome and scared
And you say you'd be happy if you could just come back home
Well here's a quarter, call someone who cares
CHORUS:
Call someone who'll listen and might give a damn
Maybe one of your sorted affairs
But don't you come 'round here handin' me none of your lines
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares
I thought what we had could never turn bad
So your leavin' caught me unaware
But the fact is you've run, girl that can't be undone
So here's a quarter, call someone who cares
REPEAT CHORUS
Yeah here's a quarter, call someone who cares

Hey, Hey, Nadine
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
(chorus 1)
Pretty blond hair singing as she walks
China-like smile bitchin' as she talks
Dangerous eyes on a small town girl
Seen everything all around the world
If i could only let her see my way
Maybe we should spin a watch all day
In a place far away from here

Hey, hey, nadine (she's such good girl)
Hey, hey, nadine (got me in a whirl)

And she didnt know what to do
Hed been hit by a hammer on the head and he lay dead
An all her worst fears had come true

The words will make you out n out
You change the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and
In and out the valley
The music dance and sing
They make the children really ring
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they
Stand there
One mile over well be there and well see
You
Ten true summers well be there and
Laughing too
Twenty four before my love youll see Ill be
There with you
I will remember you
Your silhouette will charge the view
Of distance atmosphere
Call it morning driving thru the sound and
Even in the valley
Chorus
Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching
Down on the land
Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees
The rim of the land
The eagles dancing wings create as weather
Spins out of hand
Go closer hold the land feel partly no more
Than grains of sand
We stand to lose all time a thousand answers
By in our hand
Nex to your deeper fears we stand
Surrounded by a million years
Ill be the roundabout
The words will make you out n out

Why Do We Call It Love

Why do we call it love baby, why do we call it love
Love is something that is sent from heaven up above
Why do we call it love baby, what were we thinking of
I feel it shakin in my bones, and Im feelin awful rough
(bridge)
If sugar is sweet, then theres too much in my tea
And Im sick to my stomach when you creep up on me
Every time that we (ooh), every time we kiss and hug
My insides do the jitterbug, why do we call it love
Why do we call it love

Lets Just Call It Love

Is it any wonder I feel beautiful tonight
cause the spell Im under makes the stars shine oh so bright
Is it affection cause I think I like it
Whatever youre doing to me theres no way to describe it
So
Chorus:
Lets just call it love
You call it what you want call it emotion
Lets just call it love
You can call it a feeling call it a notion
Lets just call it love
You can say that its right you can say that its wrong
But baby its just too damn good
Lets just call it love
Lets just call it love
Im caught up in the moment I could be anywhere at all
Aint nothin that can bring me down no cause baby I feel ten feet tall
Is it obsession cause though I like it

No no so

Just when I wake up baby you call
You're driving my mind up the side of the wall

Missed call
I missed your call
And who are you to call.
Who are you to call me
At this midnight hour
When I am in dream's empire.
Do not call me again
I have no pen.
I can not write
The time of call
How you call
Why you call.
I missed your call
I missed your call.
