Laura Nyro Quotes

Emily
And her love to be
Carved in a heart
On a berry tree
But it's only a little farewell lovespell
Time to design a woman

I saw a man take a needleful of hard drug
And die slow

Morning came to the window of the street.

You can see the walls roar
See your brains on the floor
Become God
Become cripple
Become funky

In east wind skies

Where I've tried
Where God and the Tendaberry rise
Where Quakers and revolutionaries
Join for life

I'm old enough
In the city machine
Where industries
Fill the fish full of mercury"

Says that cuddles are a curse
Just tell him plain
You're on the next train
If love don't get you first

Give me my freedom for as long as I be All I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me All I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me And all I ask of dyin' is to go naturally... And when I die, and when I'm gone There'll be one child born, in our world To carry on, to carry on...

They say a woman's place
Is to wait and serve
Under the veil
Submissive and dear
But I think my place
Is in a ship from space
To carry me
The hell out of here.

If you love me true
And if you love me true
I'll spend my life with you
And Timer
You're a jigsaw, Timer

And from the sky come the Lord and the lightning
And from the sky come
The Lord and the lightning

I was raised on the good book Jesus
Till I read between the lines
Now I don't believe I ever wanna see the morning
