its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
For now I'll just push my feelings aside
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
For now I'll just push my feelings aside
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
I know what you want
I know what you need
But I can't give it
I can't give it
Yea, you walked away
Yea, now turn and look at me
That's okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me
Yes I know it
So answer me right now
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
We'll find our own way out
So take my hand
Decide our own way
Just you and me now
Yes I know it, right now
that's okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me
Falling inside this time
Falling inside
You want it right now
Don't walk away
I'm here today
Falling inside this time
Falling inside
You want it right now
Don't walk away
But I'm here today
I know what you want
I know what you need
But I can't give it
I can't give it
Yeah, you walked away
Yeah, now turn and look at me
That's okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
For now I'll just push my feelings aside
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
I know what you want
I know what you need
But I can't give it

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.

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.

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.
The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
this is an amazing song, i love it!!
