By: John B. Sebastian 1974 Talkin' to myself again Wonderin' if this travellin' is good Is there somethin' else a' doin' We'd be doin' if we could Chorus: But ah, the stories we could tell And if it all blows up and goes to Hell I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel Listen to the stories we could tell Stared at that guitar in that museum in Tennessee Nameplate on the glass brought back twenty melodies Scars upon the face told of all the times he fell Singin' all the stories he could tell Chorus: Ah, the stories he could tell And I'll bet you it still rings like a bell I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel And listen to the stories it could tell So if you're on the road trackin' down your every night Playin' for a livin' beneath brightly colored lights And if you ever wonder why you ride the carousel You do it for the stories you can tell Ah, the stories we could tell And if it all blows up and goes to Hell I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel Just listen to the stories we could tell Coda: Yes, I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel Listen to the stories it could tell

Don't tell me stories Don't tell me lies Don't keep me guessing Don't let me be surprised Don't save your kisses For some other girl You mean more to me Than the whole wide world Paint me a picture Paint it for me right Don't use pretty colors Just make it black and white If you love another Don't wait until we sow (?) I've been loved and left before And now I've got to know Tell me what you're hoping Tell me what's your dream Is your heart a-drifting Or is it love I've seen? Oh tell me how you feel I've been 'round the ocean I've been around the sea I've lost everything in life That meant the most to me Don't tell me stories Don't tell me lies Give me all your love That I see in your eyes Tell me what you're hoping Tell me what's your dream Is your heart a-drifting Or is it love I've seen? Oh tell me how you feel Tell me what you're hoping Tell me what's your dream Is your heart a-drifting Or is it love I've seen? Oh tell me how you feel

(Raul Malo) A child who is raised by an unworthy hand Has less of a chance being a man Who will try to remember and then understand Why a mother would cry While a husband lay dead Shot down by a gun of a runaway train Called life in the fast lane It all ends the same Well the same children's lives They will always regret Are the children who never forget A man ends up tired and walking alone On a street corner singing for a penny a song What he cannot remember was never his own That's the answer he gives When he speaks of his home Well the streets are my life I don't know anymore Where the children's are junkies And the ladies are whores Well the same children's lives They will always regret Are the children who never forget Chorus Goodnight, goodnight sweet child Why don't you dream with the angels To forget for awhile To forget of the life That's been handed to you Where everything's real, Yet nothing is true Well perhaps you can change What the cards always read For the children who never forget For a time they were counting You out of this race You stood up like a champion That had fallen like grace Never showing the anguish That had covered your face You were raped and forgotten Left to die in disgrace Shot down by a gun of a runaway train Called life in the fast lane It all ends the same Well the same children's lives They will always regret Are the children who never forget Repeat chorus twice Goodnight, goodnight sweet child Why don't you dream with the angels To forget for awhile

(Raul Malo) Ready, one, two, a-one, two, three, four Dolores from the Silver Screen A bigger star than Charlie Sheen With quite a knack for being mean She is, yes she is, yes she is Dolores, you're a movie star You bought yourself a fancy car Your parents told you you'd go far You are, yes you are, yes you are I thought that maybe you'd remember my name I have a feeling that in you there's no shame Used to tell me that you'd always be mine And now it seems like you just haven't the time Dolores, you have torn your dress And now your life is quite a mess But I still send you all the best Oh yes, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do I thought that maybe you'd remember my name I have a feeling that in you there's no shame Used to tell me that you'd always be mine And now it seems like you just haven't the time Travelling from coast to coast At every party you're the toast And I still fancy you the most Oh yes, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do ...

Ya va cayendo la noche Con ella llega la soledad En este momento comprendo Que nuestra historia terminará Hoy es el día que he de partir Nuestros caminos se separarán Ya nuestra historia llegó a su fin Bellos recuerdos en mí quedarán Oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh Tus recuerdos me acompañarán Recuerdo un campo de lirios Donde una tarde te di mi amor Pero ha llegado el invierno Y mi desolado corazón No late si no tiene tu calor Hoy es el día que he de partir Nuestros caminos se separarán Ya nuestra historia llegó a su fin Bellos recuerdos en mí quedarán Oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh Tus recuerdos me acompañarán Hoy es el día que he de partir Nuestros caminos se separarán Ya nuestra historia llegó a su fin Bellos recuerdos en mí quedarán Tu hermoso rostro a la luz del sol Una caricia a la orilla del mar El beso tierno bajo el farol Tus pies cansados de tanto bailar Oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh Tus recuerdos me acompañarán Oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh Tus recuerdos en mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán En mí quedarán Me van a acompañar Me van a acompañar Me van a acompañar Me van a acompañar Me van a acompañar Me van a acompañar...
