Episode:
"Love"
Scene:
The arrival of Peter and Sage
Night of the King Snake 
There's a freight train on the Bad Lands
That carries my baby to me
Through the dark lands of Wyoming
Just rockin' my baby to sleep
There's an ill wind blowing
There's a thunder rumblin' down in the east
And there's a King Snake coiled up
In the arms of an old pine tree
The King Snake says to baby
"Don't you know that I'm a jealous man?
And I would never let you leave me
To wrangle alone in the sand
You were never meant for roses
You were meant to know the wisdom of the fang
Take these thirty silver kisses
And live with me in these bad lands"
And then the King Snake purrs
As he slithers up close to her breast
She feels a tug on her earlobes
And a tingle creepin' 'round in her neck
He says that you can make believe
That this is what the fates intend
As thirty silver kisses
Go slidin' down the back of her neck
On the Night of the King Snake
Time hangs in the seemy gloom
And I was hanging 'round the station
I was waitin' on the twelve-o-two
Well, the brakeman finally told me
"Don't you know that you been made a fool?
She love them thirty silver kisses
She don't love you"
Well, do you know what it means
To love a woman with the King Snake Blues?
You can love her like no other man
And lift her up when no one else would
Well, bang your head against the wall,
It really makes no difference what you do
She love them thirty silver kisses
She don't love you
She ain't comini' back to you

Everything But The Girl
Temperamental (1999)


Episode:
"There Are No Missions"
Scene:
Michael finds Nikita in the clothing store
No Difference 
You watch the phone
Like it was the TV
If you're all alone
Well whose fault can that be?
Your keys, your bag, your car -
They're where they always are

And the light goes down
And all the lights come on
And they call to me
Oh come on, come on
And you don't make no difference to me

You look at me
And say "What you talking about?"
Well me, I'm going out
with or without
I know I don't get far
And we're where we always are

But the light goes down
And all the lights come on
And they call to me
Oh come on, come on
And you don't make no difference to me

So you fix a drink
Cause it's time to drown
And the clock speeds up
And then it slows right down
The life that we have missed
I think it still exists -
How can you resist?

But the light goes down
And the steetlights shine
And they call to me
You'll be dead a long time
And it makes a difference to me

And the light goes down
And all the lights come on
And they call to me
Oh come on. Come on
You can make a difference to me
Come on, make a difference to me

# 1 Crush 
I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time that I'm talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all the love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I will wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sink ships for you
To be close to you
To be part of you
Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you
