Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Help Myself

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Help Myself

A hungry boy
In a town of one hundred more
The food is out the door
Makes me want to help myself, help myself
A river red
Pouring from the side of his head
A bullet through the brain
Make him feel different today
Oh colder grow the days
Oh much faster pass the years by
'Til we die
A treasure not my own
I take it, took it, nobody will notice
Well that suits me well
Big house, big yard, help myself, help myself
Every once in a while
To help the helpless comes into style
The mercy mercy mile
1-800-help-myself, help myself
Oh, colder grow the days
Oh, much faster pass the years by
Oh, colder grow the days
Oh, much faster pass the years by
'Til we die
Summers here we're swimming in the river
Summer rain burns holes in flowers
Dangerous hours
Dangerous hours
Dangerous hours
Every now and then
TV preacher tell of Heaven
Redemption for a penny a soul
1-800 help yourself, help yourself
Help yourself
Summer's here we're swimming in the river
Summer rain come down come down come down come down
Summer's here we're dancing in the daisies
Summer rain burns holes in flowers
Dangerous hours
Dangerous hours
Dangerous hours

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Butterfly

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Butterfly

I am not a lucky man...
I am not a lucky man...
You are like a butterfly
A Catipillars dream to fly
So bust out of this old cocoon
And dry your wings off
Butterfly
Go ahead, and fly

Its always such a lonely loom
Its sudden like a broken bone
And your luck wont always come along
So dry your tears away
Butterfly
Go ahead and fly

Dry your tears away
Butterfly
Don't you, Cry

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Sweet

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Sweet

Try to swim, keep your head up
Kick your legs, never give up, boy
If I could I'd turn it around
Let me out, I wanna get out now
You know it gets so deep
You know it

You know it, you're feeling so deep
But if you make it out, it tastes so sweet
Sweet
Sweet

I'm so high, I wanna come down
I'm so old to wanna be younger now
If I could I'd turn it around
Let me out, I wanna go home now

You know the feeling, when you're in too deep
And if you make it out, the taste so sweet
Sweet
Sweet

Cover me, cover me, cover me
Till I'm gone
Cover me, cover me, cover me
Till I'm gone
Cover me, cover me, cover me
Till I'm gone
Gone

You know the feeling, when you're in too deep
And if you make it out, it tastes so sweet
Sweet
Sweet

I miss, make it oh yeah

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - The Idea Of You

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - The Idea Of You

I saw you walk
You know you say
Like a ghost you know to me babe
Come back boots make you look slick
Oh now I see you walk home from school
You got so lost on the way
You got me feeling like a kid
But this man is no kid you know
So I'm not goin pull your hair
I fall so hard inside the idea of you
That's why with you can't say what I mean
Wanna to stay but I think I'm gettin outta here
I fall so hard inside the idea of you
Aw there you go again
Oh I don't know
And I see you walk past with your friends
Aw and I saw you laugh and whisper
And I I'll talk I want you here
But you turn back and smile at me
Aw you got me feeling ok with that
So I'm not goin pull your hair
I fall so hard inside the idea of you
That's why with you can't say what I mean
Wanna to stay but I think I'm gettin outta here
I fall so hard inside the idea of you
Bus stop dreamer
The late night
You with me
There's something moving
You can't stop, saying that you love me
You love me, you love me
Enough, enough you make me shy
But baby, I wake up

That's why with you can't say what I mean
Wanna to stay but I think I'm gettin outta here
I fall so hard inside the idea of you

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Let You Down

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Let You Down

I let you down
Let me pick you up
I let you down
Let me climb up you to the top
So I can see the view from up there
Tangled in your hair
I let you down

I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
What's on my mind

You could look inside and see
What's on my mind
I let you down, oh, forgive me
You give me love

Let me walk with you
Maybe I could say
Maybe talk with you, open up
And let me through

Don't walk away
Don't walk away

I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
What's on my mind

You could look inside and see
What's on my mind
I let you down
How could I be such a fool like me

I let you down
Tail between my legs
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love

I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
What's on my mind,

Oh it's you
I let you down

I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love

Forgive me
Forgive me
Forgive me
I let you down

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Great Escape

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Great Escape

Let's begin
It started with a plan
To get out of here

Said "hey comin' "
Cuz the weather don't wait for no one
And sure not us

Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time

5 miles out of town
She turns to me and says
"Is it too late to turn around?"
Cuz I think I forgot my things
And I think we forgot our heads
And it can't get too far without that

Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time

Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time

Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time

She turned around
I seen that face as I watched her say
Goodbye.....
Goodbye........

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - I'll Back You Up

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - I'll Back You Up

I remember thinking
I'll go on forever only knowing
I'll see you again
But I know
The touch of you is so hard to remember
But like that touch I know no other

And for sure we have danced
In the risk of each other
Would you like to dance
Around the world with me

I'll be falling all about my own thing
And I know your the heaviest weight
When you're not here that's hung
Around my head

And your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest view, hey
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like, your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up

I remember thinking
Sometimes we walk
Sometimes we run away
But I know
No matter how fast we are running
Somehow we keep
Somehow we keep up with each other

I'll be falling all about my own thing
And I know you're the heaviest weight
When your not here that's hung
Around my head

And your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest view, hey
Do what you will,
Always walk where you like, your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Drunken Soldier

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Drunken Soldier

Keep your head up
Try and listen to your heart
Be kind always, no matter
We all grow up
And someday well say goodbye
So shine your light while got one

Make the most of what you've got
Don't waste time being trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head and fill up you heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not

Once round just once so take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head and fill up you heart cause that all we got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not

Through you window
That's one way to see the world
Step outside and look back into
Look and listen
And you decide what to believe
Shine your light while you got one

And make the most of what you got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head and fill up your heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be someone you're not

That's not a star that's a satellite
Step it out
Step it out

That's not a star that's a satellite
That's not a star that's a satellite
That's not a star that's a satellite

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Dreamgirl

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Dreamgirl

Yeah, Ya, Yeah
Yeah, Ya, Yeah Oh.

Yeah... Hey, alright...
(I) I would dig a hole all the way to China
Unless of course I was there
And I'd dig my way home.
If by digging I could steal
The wind from the sails of the greedy men who ruled the world.
Still you're my best friend
And after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love
After a deep sleep where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a

Dreamgirl
Dreamgirl
Dreamgirl (Yeah)
Dreamgirl

I was feeling like a creep as I watched you asleep
Face down in the grass in the park in the middle of hot afternoon
Your top was untied and I thought how nice it'd be to follow the sweat down
your spine.
You're like my best friend
Oh, after a good good drink
You and me wake up and make love
After a deep sleep where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a

Dreamgirl (yeah)
Dreamgirl
Dreamgirl (yeah)
Dreamgirl

Caught by a wave my back to the ocean.
It knocks me off my feet and
Just as I find my footing
Here you come again!

Dreamgirl, oh
Dreamgirl (mumble man)
The deep end...

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Fool To Think

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Fool To Think

Look at me dreaming of you
All I could hope is to have you
To have you walking with me
Laughing so in love, we two
Almost drunkenly
I did imbibe of this
Fantasy of you and me

Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?

I've grown tired of love
You are the trouble with me
I watch you walk right by
I smile, you do not notice me
Treat me recklessly
All you do is toss me pennies out
But the silence in me is screaming
Won't you come and get me?

Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?

Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?

You make a mess of me here
I dance a thousand steps for you
If you say yes to me
I'll be whatever gets you through

You make a mess of me here (was I a fool?)
I dance a thousand steps for you (was I a fool?)
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think?
Am I a fool, am I a fool for you?

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Everybody Wake Up

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Everybody Wake Up

Everybody wake up
If your living with your eyes closed
See the man with the bomb in his hand
Everybody wake up

Oh baby its not easy sometimes
But built these walls
Ever hide and hide behind them
Seems we not wait and try and make things right
Oh I feel like I'm crazy sometimes

Everybody wake up
If your living with your eyes closed
See the man with the bomb in his hand
Everybody wake up

I remember the words of a misguided fool
Do unto others as you want them to do
Not an eye for an eye is the golden rule
Just leaves a room full of blind men

....
See the pig dressed in his finest fine
..
As the daylights sucked with fire

Everybody wake up
Everybody wake up
Everybody wake up
Wake up

Everybody wake up
If your livin with your eyes closed
See the man with the bun in his hand
Everybody wake up

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Halloween

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Halloween

Hey little dreamer's eyes open and staring up at me
Oh, little lovely eyes, oh, and radiant
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come, I'll take your soul
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come and I will go

I will dream within the night
Shadows on the windows
Lead our love
Every love will lead me on tonight
I will lay you lying,
I will not within this life

Oh, little dreamer-eyes open and waving here
Wait until I come, and I see them go!
Then again I leave them (hee!)
Until I come, I do come, love...

We will leave it all behind
Oh, and in the nightmares,
I'll fill them in good time, oh
They will 'seech your mind
And no lying, and you may, well, ask,
"Why do we run around here?"
"Oh, why does it come inside me?"
"Oh, why does it rip me all between?"
Why then, why then, watch this little fuck!

Going away, yeah...
Why this lonely, why this lonely, why this lonely, love?
Why this lonely, why this lonely, why this lonely, love?
Oh I will carry on, burial, burial, burial, burial, burial
And let them see
But tell us, are you satisfied, with fucking up? Don't walk away, don't walk
away, don't walk away
I'm talking to you!
Lovey dove, love is hell, love is hell, love is up to you
Love, love, love, love is up to you
Love, love, love, love is up to you
Fuck!

In the sky is half-wrote
Up from the ground,
I stay out of breath
I felt the temperature rises
And I felt across the creeping (???)

Ah, These graves... (???)

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Spotlight

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Spotlight

In the Spotlight life is so peachy yeah, yeah, yeah
Wouldn't you like to retire with a million?

A million beating hearts
Behind brick and cold steel piping
Fighting for the top
Fighting for the room to breathe
Bench parks sleepers lie
Cold blanket bedless babies
Here this must stop
I cannot stay

Damn you, big city, black city
Rising up around me, steal my soul away
Big city, black city
Rise and take me over, steal my soul away
But all out in this world
The night it crawls it falls much harder than I recall
Out in this world
A siren calls from every corner

In the Spotlight life is so peachy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All of us in the Spotlight for a reason, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Caught for stealing somebody's riches, no, no, no, no
Wouldn't you like to retire with a million bucks?
Yeah

Came here from a small town
I see my dreams here in the big city
Sour disappointment
I cannot stay

Damn you, big city, black city
Rising up around me, steal my soul away
Big city, black city
Rise and take me over, steal my soul away
But all out in this world
The night it crawls it falls much harder than I recall
Out in this world
A siren calls from every corner

In the Spotlight life is so peachy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All of us in the spotlight for a reason, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Caught for stealing somebody's riches, no, no, no, no
Wouldn't you like to retire with a million bucks
Yeah

Yeah....
Yeah....
Yeah....
Yeah....

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Gravedigger

Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913
Made his great grandchildren believe
You could live to a hundred and three
A hundred and three is forever when you're just a little kid
So Cyrus Jones lived forever

Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger

Muriel Stonewall
1903 to 1954
She lost both of her babies in the second great war
Now you should never have to watch
Your only children lowered in the ground
I mean you should never have to bury your own babies

Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger

Ring around the rosey
Pocket full of posey
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down

Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger

Little Mikey Carson 67 to 75
He rode his
Bike like the devil until the day he died
When he grows up he wants to be Mr. Vertigo on the flying trapeze
Oh, 1940 to 1992

Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain

Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Feel the rain
I can feel the rain
Gravedigger

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Jimi Thing

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Jimi Thing

Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm seeking
Take a taste of what's below
Come away to something better
What I want is what I've not got
But what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say...

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel... Mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Take a Jimi Thing
Just to keep me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
I shouldn't care if you don't like it
Brother chaos rules all about
Sometimes I walk there
Sometimes, God knows, I take a bus there
I should't care I shouldn't care bereaved as
I'm feeling

Day is gone I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
I take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind makes me feel
Better for a short time
What I want is what I've not got
What I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel... Mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Busted Stuff

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Busted Stuff

Haha, look at that girl
Woman...

Not enough, never too much
The woman look just like love
Rolling stone gathers no moss
But leave a trail of busted stuff

I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind her
I take what she's giving up
I know she's gonna leave this broken man behind her
I take what she's giving up

Sweet sugar lips push from the hips
Woman looks just like love
Without a care she floats above
She got me down here looking up

I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind her
I take what she's giving up
I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind
Yeah, yeah...

She me one
She my one
She my one
Little love
When she move
She move so cool
She make me feel just like a fool
But inside where the devil hides
Women looks just like love

I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind
I take what she's giving up, oh
I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind her now
I get what she's giving up, oh

I know she's gonna leave her broken man behind
Hey, yeah...

She my one
She my one
She the one for me
Yeah...

I know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind
Yeah, yeah...

She my one...

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Proudest Monkey

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Proudest Monkey

Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
Limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do

Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder do I want the simple, simple life that I once lived in well
Oh things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Dancing Nancies

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Dancing Nancies

Could I have been
A parking lot attendant
Could I have been
A millionaire in Bel Air
Could I have been lost somewhere in Paris
Could I have been
Your little brother
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone

He stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money?
Could I have been anyone other than me?

Twenty three and so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other than me? Then I

Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy

I am who I am who I am who am I
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me?

Sing and dance I'll play for you tonight
And thrill at it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out then I

Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy

Falling out of a world of lies
Could I have been dancing Nancy
Could I have been anyone other than me?

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Sweet Up And Down

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - Sweet Up And Down

We talk on the phone
There it is it's only your mind
But can it ?
Don't you hurt
It's all coming right here
The sweet up and down
Tickle in your throat
Things you know quite well
You're a joke
I know what's gone wrong
Needles in my legs keep me raw
The sweet up and down
I believe in love
But think nothing about it
When you're not around
I believe in love
Think it's just so fine
Sweet up and down
?
Got two words to make up the wall
God's the selling point
And the great inventor of course of
The sweet up and down
I believe in love
But believe that it's love
That keeps beating me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
The sweet up and down
Leaves me
I know my place
I made my money selling
God's the selling point
And the great inventor of course of
The sweet up and down
I believe in love
But think nothing about it
When it's not around
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
Oh the sweet up and down
I believe in love
And think nothing about it
When you're not around
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
Oh sweet up and down

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - An' Another Thing

Lyrics Dave Matthews Band - An' Another Thing

Rain for me oh you but called me
It's my broken heart just where you leave me
Now I say to you, "ooooh boy."

Weight on my head
You won't go up, oh
Weight on my head
Oooh ooh my babe...

Stay a minute just to hear you waitin',
And no one confine her
Sweet and tender won't you go out again?

Oh, rain on my head
Wouldn't you
Rain on my head?
Oh, someone take off a
Weight all alone

Ahh, I met a girl recently.
All in a sudden, all a suddenly
Nobody deal for the woe of the world
Wait, all a sudden, all a suddenly
It will all would be, all would be over

Wait, come on rain on my head.
Water water!

Dates,
Many, many dates how you all die.

Oh rain money,
Grow a war at heart
And in the fire,
One out of a million.

.. wait a minute,
Touch your look on me
Denial, denial
Touch your work with me
Do not deny
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
