Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Hey you up there, can you hear me?
Because I feel so all alone
And I mingle with the people
But it doesn't feel like home
I greet them with an open heart
And the smile will reach my eyes
But somehow this soul is set apart
Wearing courage her disguise (Wearing courage her disguise)
Love, love, love
Oh, it's just beyond my reach
But I feel it in the sunrise
In the dancing of the leaves
Love, love, love
Oh, I've seen it in my dreams
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Show me you can hear my plea
I float on with the river
And as I crash upon the stones
The cleansing flow, it brings new hope
And it's seeping through my bones (It's seeping through my bones)
Spirit guides, please guide me
I've surely lost my way
I don't know if I should fight or hide
Paralyzed by fear or faith
Love, love, love
Oh, it's just beyond my reach
But I feel it in the rainfall
And I hear it on the breeze
Love, love, love
Oh, I've seen it in my dreams
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Show me you can hear my plea
Here I stand with my arms open wide
I raise my voice up to the night
And the lady moon, she shines so bright
And I swear she whispers, "It's alright"
Love, love, love
Always just beyond my reach
I feel it in the starlight
In the ground beneath my feet
Love, love, love
Here I'm down on bended knee
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Will you save some love for me?
Hey you up there, if you're listening
Will you save some love for me?
Because I feel so all alone
And I mingle with the people
But it doesn't feel like home
I greet them with an open heart
And the smile will reach my eyes
But somehow this soul is set apart
Wearing courage her disguise (Wearing courage her disguise)
Love, love, love
Oh, it's just beyond my reach
But I feel it in the sunrise
In the dancing of the leaves
Love, love, love
Oh, I've seen it in my dreams
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Show me you can hear my plea
I float on with the river
And as I crash upon the stones
The cleansing flow, it brings new hope
And it's seeping through my bones (It's seeping through my bones)
Spirit guides, please guide me
I've surely lost my way
I don't know if I should fight or hide
Paralyzed by fear or faith
Love, love, love
Oh, it's just beyond my reach
But I feel it in the rainfall
And I hear it on the breeze
Love, love, love
Oh, I've seen it in my dreams
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Show me you can hear my plea
Here I stand with my arms open wide
I raise my voice up to the night
And the lady moon, she shines so bright
And I swear she whispers, "It's alright"
Love, love, love
Always just beyond my reach
I feel it in the starlight
In the ground beneath my feet
Love, love, love
Here I'm down on bended knee
So hey you up there, if you're listening
Will you save some love for me?
Hey you up there, if you're listening
Will you save some love for me?

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.

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
