Eels – Eight Lives Left

Eight lives left
One chapter down
Still nothing new
In this old town
I’d like to spend at least one life with you
Eight lives left
And a heart that wants to be true

Five miles out
The depot is there
A Greyhound is waiting
To take us somewhere
I’d like to spend at least one life with you
Eight lives left
And a heart that wants to be true…

There cannot be a sense of abundance or the experience of prosperity without appreciation. You cannot find beauty unless you appreciate beauty. You cannot find friendship unless you appreciate others. You cannot find love unless you appreciate loving and being loved. If you wish abundance, appreciate life.” – William R. Miller
