Craig Does The Boss's Brilliant Disguise

Brilliant Disguise

Bruce Springsteen

I hold you in my arms
As the band plays
What are those words whispered baby
Just as you turn away
I saw you last night
Out on the edge of town
I want to read your mind
To know just what I've got in this new thing I've found
So tell me what I see
When I look in your eyes
Is that you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

I heard somebody call your name
From underneath our willow
I saw something tucked in shame
Underneath your pillow
Well I've tried so hard baby
But I just can't see
What a woman like you
Is doing with me
So tell me who I see
When I look in your eyes
Is that you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

Now look at me baby
Struggling to do everything right
And then it all falls apart
When out go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim
I walk this world in wealth

Circles and Lines

In the meadow

A stiletto

I would bet, Oh,

I could get a word with her

She was older

But I told her 

I was bolder

I could shoulder anything

She held me like I was a child 

Unsullied, undefiled

Her eyes, they burned in me

And in the night we danced divine 

In circles and in lines

In time with everything

She was braver 

I could savor

The palaver

Of a raver high on X

In slow motion

A commotion

And the cold sun

On the ocean beating down

And in the night we danced divine 

In circles and in lines

In time with everything

She held me like I was a child 

Unsullied, undefiled

Her eyes, they burned inside of me

She was a dancer 

I was the dance floor

I was a copper 

She was a crime

I couldn’t stop her

But, man, I wanted her

To do it over 

So many times

She was a problem 

I was a problem

That simple math

Just couldn’t define

She lit a path

I followed, if awkward

And we danced 

In circles and lines
