Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
Time is gonna take my mind
And carry it far away where I can fly
The depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you
If, if I were to be alone silence would rock my tears
'Cause it's all about love and I know better
How life is a waving feather
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I know that I'll be living soon
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And you see that I can't stop shaking
No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
'Cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh, could burst it if it were a bubble
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
So I just put my arms around you, around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
My arms around you, they're around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you
They're on you
They're on you
My eyes
And carry it far away where I can fly
The depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you
If, if I were to be alone silence would rock my tears
'Cause it's all about love and I know better
How life is a waving feather
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I know that I'll be living soon
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And you see that I can't stop shaking
No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
'Cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh, could burst it if it were a bubble
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
So I just put my arms around you, around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
My arms around you, they're around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you
They're on you
They're on you
My eyes

Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I saw this on So You Can Think You Can Dance too and i cried. I'm so happy I Ti'Voed it.
it made me think about how much i miss the love of my life and
