My babe lets the moonshine
My babe likes to sail
When you need a reason
Baby's reason
My babe wants a show stopper
To come on board and dance
When there's reason
Any reason
Baby's reason
I can drive for miles and miles
I can drive for miles and miles around
My babe wants a warm coat
To keep him shuffling on
Just get along, just to get along
My babe wants to tell you
But talking don't seem fair
My babe needs a reason
Any reason
Any reason, any reason
Any place I'll drive you baby
Any place I'll drive you baby, yes
My babe wants the use of you
To really lose himself
My babe wants to see you
To see you help yourself
To any reason
Baby's reason
Any reason
My babe's sure a short boy
Although he thinks he's fine
Never greet a liar
'Cos any reason is any reason
Any reason is any reason
'Cos any reason
Is baby's reason
And any reason
We're not talking
I'm not talking sensibly enough
You know the soul of a man is many coloured
Soul of a man one to another
Wants you another day
I'm not wishing on a star
Talk
The soul of a man is many coloured
Soul of a man wants you another
Another day
From the airport
To be by your side
From a reading
And that's the one
That hurts my pride
From the church yard
Into your trust
To the talk
That we must, we must rekindle
To the way I want you
To the way I don't want
Nothing from you
Nothing from you
Nothing from you
You know the soul of is man is many coloured
Soul of a man is many coloured
The soul of a man one to another
I'm gonna build a strange
City overcome
Mad as any
And anyone
Who wants to wish upon me
I will take a city
And it will take the rain
Anybody who sees this face
Will have to blink at this
Strange heart
This stranger
Everbody's angel and
Everbody's friend
Everybody who came around
Will come around again
I will stake this city
And it will take the soil
And anybody who sings me
Will know the trouble's been a
Strange heart
This stranger
Where's yours sincerely?
Where you say you'll be
I sit wrapped in this restless night
Yes - it still comes back to me
Everybody's favoured
And everybody's day
'Cos everytime I see your face
I can see your
Strange heart
Amazing - You don't have much to say
Amazing - You don't have much to say
I know your kind all too well
The weather will storm
Will you swear by me?
Would you swear by me?
Innocence -
That changes nothing -
I'm sure
That changes something -
Aside -
Would you go tell it wrong?
Not swear by me
Not swear by me
I'm huddling for the summer inside
The chase brings blues
The habit that grows inside,
It just grows and grows
Right back to you
I'm missing
So what do you say?
Amazing -
That somebody will say
I guess I've seen some very strange faces
Well, we all wind up in the oddest of places
The value of
Swear by me -
You will swear by me
You will swear by me
You will swear by me
You will swear by me
Share our coffee share my thoughts I could wait for years
I don't know if you're an angel or I'm just feeling weird
I like this picture but I don't want to work to hard and I ask you for a number
You say "hey, baby if I'm an angel maybe you should take my card"
Baby I got time for you but can you thrill me? really thrill me
Baby I got time for you but can you thrill me? really thrill me
I'm not silence into hiding I want the words you say
And if it seems we take the same, well...when I feel lucky, I feel lucky
Baby I got time for you, yeah if you do me, really do me
Baby I got time for you, yeah if you show me, really show me
Oh, well, I like this one
Oh, yeah, well I like this one
I-I-I like this one
When your life has all been token
And your stance is akin to broken hearts
You've grown weary - I'm not weary
I can take your part
It's eye-open time, sailor
When they want you to pretend
You were inside that playground
You may be old - but not so old
That I can't see
See your old freinds and it's as fresh as dew
But see what's new and it's all the same to you
Now I'm not choosy and I'm just half grown
I took the old man - I gave the old man
I took the old man back home
Safe with us to serenade
To hang around your black scarf and black ways
I have "no idea" he said, "no idea of what I'll do"
And talking less - it chases home
It chases dreams - but I have really no reason, no goal and so
If you "wanna" play real basic
If you "wanna" help us make it
Don't forget you're alone
Unless it's all alone
Don't forget you're alone
Unless it's all alone
You get preyed upon
Ohh oh
I need to complicate you
To make you hate the things you might have done
And come out into the morning
It's the sun you want
Today is my birthday
I stay outside the hall
Inside sit the butterflies
For the butterfly ball
All the boys are graded now
They come in their white socks, flat tops
And somehow they find a placr
All the boys are winning now
They play all the tricks with smiles
And a sorry past
For poor caw
Their own room
And winter tales
Never touched these girls before
They hear the car stereo
And know what life is for
All the boys are weary now
listening to the family sing song
Family say so
Must carve, must carve poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Today is my birthday
I stay outside the hall
Inside sit the butterflies
Just out
Just out
Of my bed
And if I
Need some money
I will go
Get some money
And if I'm
I'm just out
I'm just out
On the town
And if I need some money
I will go get some money
And I
I'm just down
I'm just down
On my luck
And if I
Need another
I will go
Find a lover
And if things
They work out
I'll continue
To seek
Happiness is
Happiness is
Happiness is
All around and worth the waiting
All around and worth the waiting
And I
I'm just out
I'm just out to friends and family
Well I
I'm unpaid
I'm not skilled
I'm not scared
I'm just out
On the town
As the town it seems so
Funny sometimes
How can you smile?
When you're down
On your luck
And if things
They work out
I'll continue
To seek
Happiness is
Happiness is
Happiness is
All around and worth the waiting
All around and worth the waiting
It blows my mind
To think you're mine
It blows my mind
To think you're mine
And I'm
Just out
Of the times
That we spent together
Oh, I
Always count, all the dreamtime
And I
Am not out
On the town
For any funny feeling
I'm just down
On my luck
I am down
On my luck
I am down
On my luck
You know it's alright
Just to take me home
To your serious house, with your serious tones
You're a serious man, with a serious smile
But the summer is hot and I might surprise you
In a very short while we'll have left them behind
With their faces quite pained
As they try to remind themselves
Oh, it's really so wrong
It's really so out
And it's really not cool to take a young girl about
And I know the young man with a century's face
A philosopher king - he will try to amaze
With examples of love and examples of hate
And to see them explode
We will just have to
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
But first I'll tell you about mine
You know it's alright to be trustful, have tact
But the problem's complex
When you keep holding back
We could talk for an hour
We could talk for a day
But the people we know would still have their say
Talk of such virtuous women
Talk of such noble men
But if I'm on the level I have met none of them
Oh, I've met troubled people with deep and dark thoughts
Who have hallowed my name
And sworn I will get caught
But why waste real feeling and
Why waste our time
To let the earth bow to no virtue of
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
But first I'll tell you about mine
You know it's alright to just make mistakes
But to tail in with hurt - is the gravest make
We all create lives which we don't understand
But to point the accused is a job for no man
And we curse our own longing - and curse our own ways
I won't be satisfied with my soul that's
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
Now I've told you about mine
Johnny was a peculiar guy
Brough up on love and the reasons why
but the reasons why ought not to be said
and so I'm left hands held to my head
I love you
I love you
I love you
It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful thing
It's a beautiful, beautiful thing
Chances, changes are all that you have
As you take the hard stuff and lie on your back
The smoothness, strangeness
Fits like a glove
But the comfort of tease
Still rises above
I love you
I love you
I love you
But is it possible, possible, possible babe?
Is it possible for you and me?
Gold and waves and Betty Blue
Are the images that lead to the clues of why
I can't love you
I can't love you
I can't love you
Now - you can't tell me - well,
That you know too much
Well, that you know too much to let go
Now, I can't watch you
Be an
Easy vision
Well an
Easy vision
Lord I love the heaven's solo
I love the heaven so
I love the heaven know by now
That there is a place to
Now you can't tell me -well
I have lived too much
Well - I have lived too much, to know
Now you can't wash me
Like a simple reason
Well a
Simple reason
Lord I love the heaven's solo
I love the heaven so
I love the heaven know by now
That there is a place to
Now you can't tell me - well
I have dreamed enough
Well - I have dreamed enough to know
Now I can dream you
Like an easy vision
Well an
Easy vision
Lord I love the heaven's solo
I love the heaven so
I love the heaven know by now
That there is a place to
Mmmm Mmmm
Baby, there'll be time
Time alone - this tired old body
Time alone - and tired old body
Will be healed
Baby, they'll be blessed
Just a walk away
Just a walk away, baby
Heal you, heal you
My oh my, my oh my
My oh my, my oh my
Baby, there'll be me
Standing in the corner
Baby, there'll be me
Standing here for you
Heal you, heal you
And there'll be the day
All the days you pray for
Yeah, there'll be the day
All the days you pray for
Heal you, heal you
My oh my, my oh my
My oh my, my oh my
And the scent of you
Will be always ever
Was it always ever?
Now this isn't the party I would hold now, I'm trying to make it on my own
I have opened my house but it's not like a home without you
And I really don't want to feel that you're not here 'cause I would be
Back in your arms, I would be
Back in your arms I'd keep on calling you
Yeah, I'd keep on calling you
No this isn't the season I would have chose
To be walking for miles with nowhere to go
I find shelter and warmth but I still feel the cold without you
And I really don't want to feel that you're not here 'cause I would be
Back in your arms, I would be
Back in your arms I'd keep on calling you
Yeah, I'd keep on calling you
Back in your arms, I would be
Back in your arms I'd keep on holding you
Yeah, I'd keep on holding you
How do you think it feels? when you have a broken heart
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall - your father's calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh, was this solo?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'Cos while all the rest have taken time
This didn't do a lot for you
And the corners laced with memories
Tell you how it used to be
Your mother smiles, the children play, and all the bad things happen miles away
And strong feelings never bother you
You hold your head up while the rest of us try to
Oh, call the stations
Call the people
We all want to know
'Cos while all the rest have taken time
You don't wanna know
Well, there's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall - your father's calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh, was this solo?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'Cos of all the choices you have made
I got a scent on you. I got something here to show
(It's) somebody's slice of life
I had it tailor made, I had it soaken, shaken and shown around the world
And for all these things you tell me, well
I can't quite believe
You are still there and trying to be somebody
Always on the upkeep, always trying to reach the rest of us
We don't have anything to say, nothing to give
Well, it blows away
I have another chance, I may have two lives
But both my lives will be brief lives
And then, you all will wonder why
I was nearly 16 years old
You were only 17, life isn't so complicated
But then life isn't 'sposed to be
For all these years
For all these years
Could somebody tell them
To hurry on, hurry on down
Wouls somebody tell them to hurry on, hurry on down
Every censor, everybody loses their way
I have a wealth of material, I have a well of people to share with you
Every lover
Well they all tell lies
Yes, I have his wife in the background
But I have more than this, I have more than this
And if Mr Chaste, he has a past
Give it to me
I was nearly 16 years old
You were only 17, life isn't so complicated
But then life isn't 'sposed to be
For all these years
I have a picture
It's taken with looks
It wont tell a story
But I'm glad I forgot everything that you say
I choose the colours
And reword the lines
Now somebody's second heart
Ain't the first of mine
Consider the rain now
Out in the cold
Maybe I love you
But our dreams grow old
Outbid my fortune
Out to just win
Tell me that summer
Is coming on in
I got my wallet
Been shot from the start
Feel shot when I'm feeling drained
But we all know how to smile when we're falling apart
You choose the colours now
Let's play with the rest
I never believe at all
But some of us sometimes, are just thrilled, by meeting the blessed
Consider the rain now
Out in the cold
Maybe I love you
But our dreams grow old
Outbid my fortune
Out to just win
Tell me that summer
Is coming on in
I have the oath ring, somebody said
Makes like a twinge running straight through my head
Maybe this fortune is not what it seems
Some of us pin, some of us pin time on our dreams
And saved from the talk shifts
Went straight to your goal
Straight backed and straight laced
Well, you never really
Do you ever really know?
I check on the same day
I checked out the view
I checked all the soft land
Well, it comes so easy from you
Consider the rain now
Out in the cold
Maybe I love you
But our dreams grow old
Outbid my fortune
Out to just win
Tell me that summer
You can't call hell
A quiet town
But you walked so shell-shocked
Have you found a way to stand?
Your head is high
You have, oh, such curious hands
Did they mantion?
Special faces
And your young mind
And foreign places
And I wonder
Where you come from
I know they have no answers
But their bloodlines
Can you call?
This land a friend
You looked so hopeful
Have you found a way to send this soul
To, oh, such a curious end
For this sadness
Am I made strong?
For my sadness
Must be shared by someone
Ande I wonder
Where you come from
I know I have no answers
But my bloodlines
To know that I am not the only one
To know that my love is for everyone
To hold it in my heart
To hold it in my heart
To hold it in my heart
And I wonder
Where you come from
I know I have no answers
Young thing - saw it
And calls his brother
And brother's angry
You make the whole world cry
You can't tell me
I rid my secret
You can't own me
You make the whole world cry
Young thing downing
And it maybe hurting
And it maybe the best day you ever had
And I've gone courting
And I'm just chasing
But baby, you make the whole world cry
Yes, you make the world cry
I tell you honestly
Yeah, I tell you honestly
So we go dancing
And you start laughing
And I start choosing
A room to hide in
But I'm not hiding
And I'm not running, anymore
so it's so good
And it's so bad
And it's walk
To the end of you're so sure of yourself
Baby you make the whole world cry
Yeah, you make the whole world cry
Yeah, you make the whole world cry
Yeah, you make the whole world cry, cry, cry, cry
The first time you stole flowers from the grave
Then, the second time, you shaved your head, you had been saved
By the very friendly, Jesus man
And all he said, "Well, I'm your brother, man"
In the winter time you - you wore patch-work hard-me-downs
In the summer time - you were all bronzed, while I was brown
And they didn't ask you where you got the candy
No, they didn't ask you where you got the tan
In the morning time - we played travels in the sea
In the evening time - we had reduced the sea to me
But your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand
Yeah - your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand
From your daddy
From your daddy
With my adult mind -
You know my body feels so strange
If they'd only sign away my life to me
I could be much saner
If they'd only learn to let me
Freedom seek
The world would be less mean
But they never know - how to let you go
But they never know - how to leace me
Yodel - ee
Beat up English
In a beat up town
And I'm beat up black and blue
Oh, I do not have the energy
And I'm beat up street
And I'm beat up tight
And we've been so drawn together, each other
I do not have the energy
And wisdom
Trip over again
Wisdom
Trip over again
You beat it
Stepping stones
Or standing up
I'm shivering on stones
Hot stones
In a wipe down England
With it's worn out grace
With a picture postcard, baby, hallelujah
I love your face
In a wise up England
To a wake up place
Oh, I do not like the way you shower me
No, I do not like the way you shower me
And I do not have the energy
In a beat up England
With a beat up face
It's a why oh why did I ever get lost in this?
It's the tired old hands
Come to tire me out
And the tired old hands
They yearn to shout
Night is falling
I think of you
I'm walking home
I think of you
And as he calls me, yes I do
I think of you
How you doing?
I think of you
And I smile, I can't hide
I think of you
I don't know where your days are spent
Your lovers and you friends
But I know for sure
Of who you have been thinking
Far beyond the city's lights
Are two who dream a life
Forgive them if they never find their freedom
Their freedom
It's so late
I think of you
He walks me home
I think of you
I'm so sorry, I'm so tired
I think of you
And in the shadows
I think of you
I close my eyes
I think of you
Now I'm falling
I think of you
I think of you
As he calls my name, yes I do
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
And in feeling
I think of you
And in breathing
I think of you
And in seeing
I think of you
And in living
A scene so simple
As if you're carried along
I've seen -
Some strange things and
He says:
"I'm used to winning"
Hearts abound
"I'm used to striking bands"
The sound
I'm used to turning every leading
Story in me
Believe this story in me
The scene's
A young man
It's the same self-same man
It's the - way you won me
A day ago -
It's strange to know so much
Always known too much
always cared so much to take
Believe this story in me
Believe this story in me
Mm Hm Mm Hm Mm Hm
A scene -
So second
A scene -
So second best
I'm sure I'm saving you
When they look around
Here are the gathered
Here is the test of time
Here is what matters - in my heart
Yeah, maybe my heart's blind
In my heart
Yes - maybe my heart's blind
But I'm sure
I'm taking - believe this story in me
Believe this story in me
Mm Hm Mm Hm Mm Hm
Watch young scenery
Watch young
What's been burning here?
well - you know it's
Seen the sun in me
Yes, you now it's
Seen the sun in me
Yes, you know it's warm and I feel better
If I was a Londoner, rich with complaint
Would you take me back to your house
Which is sainted with lust and the listless shade
If I could have held you once more in that light
It's nothing to you, but it keeps me alive
Like a Valentine's Day, it's a Valentine's heart, anyway
The king and the ages, they fall by the plan
It's always the tired and the ordinary man
(It's the) challenge it's funny and such
I want to see you again
I want to see you again
It's so simple and plain
But I'll come back and see you again
The lie is the angel, it doesn't exist
I tell you it's funny but you like just to twist all my words
It's a shame you're so young
My words, it's a shame I'm so dumb
I figure a house with the smoke and the fence
The people round here would be pleased;
Take my word on this
I would believe just in you, just believe in you,
I would believe just in you, just believe in you.
And five days to catch me around with my ring
As I visit the friendships that meant everything to the girl
Oh, you can't say nothing to the pouring rain
And you can't say nothing till there's hope
Again -
(Say) - oh my baby - you must never change
For we're only the ones we love
And I've stood stolen by the pauper's heart
Yes, I've stood stolen where the aching starts
But the way you watched - it's a life apart
For we're only the ones we love
Only
Only
You're the only one who could say
I could love this way
I could love this way
Oh, you can't get even with this kind of pain
But to see you steady brings the calm, again
(Say) - oh my baby - let them stay the same
For we're only the ones we love
And they've seen something which I'll never see
But - I dreamed something when you fell for me
(Yeah), I dreamed something which soars above
For we're only the ones we love
Only the ones we love
Yes, love, and love, mmm, mmm
This love, love
Oh, I get tired - and I get old
But to see you steady brings a flood of gold
(Say, oh, my baby) - I've been taught and told
We're only the ones we love
Only the ones we love
Love, love, mmm, mmm
When we were young and you pretended
You were almost bothered as me
Does it make you sad?
Almost sorry as me?
When we were young and you pretended
That the world was ours - how we see
Does it make you sad?
And make you sorry?
Almost sorry as me
I grant you
Time can make a fool of all of us
These words once mine - hang on, hang on
And yet they don't belong
Mmm. They don't belong
Now we get old and you've defended
All the world as it likes to be
Does it make you sad?
Does it make you sorry?
Almost sorry for me
Can you get lost inside a feeling?
Does you almost feel for me?
Does it make you sad?
And make you sorry?
Almost sorry for me?
I grant you
Shine and scare the fool inside of us
These words once mine drag on, drag on
And yet they do belong
Mmm. They do belong
When we were young - and you were grounded
Didn't you ever want to go free
Soes it make you sad?
And make you sorry?
You're not a fool like me
When we were young - and we were running
Didn't you ever want to run free?
Didn't it make you sad?
And make you sorry?
To wander whio you are
I grant you are
Give me a reason
For leaving the party
I'll leave by the entrance
The same way I came
I'm not
Here to enjoy you, I'm
Here to endure you
I'm leaving the party
The same way I came
It's so fine
Stormin' across the sea
It's alright
What the drunk is explaining to me
It's OK - I haven't seen anyone at all
It's all night
I've been waiting
It's all night
I've been waiting
Give me a reason
For leaving the party
I'll leave by the entrance
The same way I came
I'm not
Here to enjoy you, I'm
Here to endure you
I'm leaving the party
The same way I came
It's alright
These are my oldest suede shoes
It's alright
I feel Elvisy
I get the blues too
It's OK
But I will pass upon this pipe
It's OK
Since I don't see anyone tonight
Give me a reason
For leaving the party
I'll leave by the entrance
The same way I came
I'm not
Here to enjoy you, I'm
Here to endure you
I'm leaving the party
The same way I came
It's so fine
Sharing your stories with me
It's alright in explaining
I still get to sleep with me
It's OK
I haven't seen anyone at all
It's all night
I've been waiting
It's all night
I've been waiting
Give me a reason
For leaving the party
I'll leave by the entrance
The same way I came
I'm not
Here to enjoy you, I'm
Here to endure you
I'm leaving the party
What do you do for fun? what do you do when you want fun days?
I could be just anyone I'm happy to smile and mad on mondays
The world is a better place now every time I see your face
If I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
If I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
Everytime I hear your voice everytime I feel you're near to me
Will you ever make a choice will you ever be that real for me?
The friendship feeling's fine I just want you to be mine
if I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
if I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
He comes alive, she comes alive, he comes alive, she comes alive
He comes alive, she comes alive, he comes alive, she comes alive
You can make a madman sane you can make the winters warm again
Promise me you'll never change promise me you'll always stay the same
Cos the world is a better place now every time I see your face
If I ever ever get through to you
If I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
If I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
If I ever ever get through to you if I ever ever get through to you
If we ever get together we can always make it better
Tell Ma, she's a stonebreaker
Tell her there are no takers
For a heart like this will always be
Chaste at first, then left for me
And though your pallor shows instinct
And all our lives are worth
That stint you did with that man of mine
But lady-luck, her needs divine
'Cos I'm courted by the mourning sun y'know
We shine all the picture palace shows
They used to make you feel so real
But now you go trickling
'Til you steal a moment by yourself
When the people don't come and need your help
When the people don't come with pseudo sights
To tell you how to live your life
Now you can live your life with this life of mine
'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time
To explain the things that I gotta do
'Cos more or less
I owe it all to you
Tell all to the sweet keeper
As you and you're much deeper
In debt it's always nice to be
With the closest like the family
And when you hit on a great line y'know
And when you've opened up your soul
But every girl who's counting the day
Isn't cold - but she just needs to say
'Cos I'm courted by the mourning su y'know
We shine all the picture palace shows
they used to make you feel so real
But now you go trickling
'Til you steal a moment by yourself
When the people don't come and need your help
When the people don't come with pseudo sights
To tell you how to live your life
Now you can live your life with this life of mine
'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time
To explain the things that I gotta do
'Cos more or less
I owe it all to you
And hiding in the lost country
I know I gotta way to go
And though you still fmay find me
Some say the world goes crazy
It's summertime
I say I'm feeling lazy
Hammocks in mind
And I can't change a thing
So I won't stay around
If you can still feel so hot
Why don't you feel for me?
If you can feel so much
Why don't you let it out
And let me be alone again
I keep watch. That's alright
'Cos it comes in this real night
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
And that's when the pain in mine will start
I'm used to growing older
and feeling down inside
But yes, I know, well someone told
You should have seen him cry
Well that's not my life
I'm tired of chip inside and playing bronze for cool
Y'know that sometimes light
And sometimes you can just be that fool
Who can really say?
If I'm cross - it's a joke
if I'm lost - let it go up in smoke
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
And that's when the pain in mine will start
Jump right out of your grass colours
And make like you were easy prey
and cheer us solemn of a possible
Is it possible?
I could really play could really play
All these things I say
Though not torn inside, though not torn
You just lie, lie low - lie low for me
I'm not in deeper waters - where everyone will claim
We used to know the daughter - throw it away it's such a shame
If you're feeling blue
And like icy looks and great command
He likes the way I'm true
But I know inside
This is a real life sham - but that's okay
And this song can't be sued
I assume - you get up and renew yourself
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
If I - won't be - able
To hold - a good - conversation
If I - feel - big - and ballooning
If I - turn up - today
If I - can't be - appreciated
I - won't be - 'preciated - at all
And if I - look - red - and - confusing
Well, I - am all - of the above
'Cos, I've been
Feeding the witches
Feeding them straw
Feeding the witches
The witches
The witches
Who live next door
You'd think
They'd have no milk, they'd
Have no honey
You'd think
They would prefer - petroleum
You'd think
they'd have rat's eyes
Not like Aunt sally
Yeah - you'd think
They wouldn't smile - just like your mum
Since I've been
Feeding the witches
Feeding them straw
I am
Falling for witches
The witches
Who live next door
They live next door
They live next door
If I - start wrong - too drunk - to continue
And - if - can't shout
I can't do - things - I used to
I'll be
Joining the witches
Feeding them straw
I'll be feeding the witches
The witches
Yes I'll be
Joining the witches
Feeding them straw, I'll be
Joining the witches
Originally by Lucio Battisti
Night is falling
I think of you
I'm walking home
I think of you
And as he calls me, yes I do
I think of you
How you doing?
I think of you
And I smile, I can't hide
I think of you
I don't know where your days are spent
Your lovers and you friends
But I know for sure
Of who you have been thinking
Far beyond the city's lights
Are two who dream a life
Forgive them if they never find their freedom
Their freedomIt's so late
I think of you
He walks me home
I think of you
I'm so sorry, I'm so tired
I think of you
And in the shadows
I think of you
I close my eyes
I think of you
Now I'm falling
I think of you
I think of you
As he calls my name, yes I do
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
I think of you
And in feeling
I think of you
And in breathing
I think of you
And in seeing
I think of you
And in living
I think of you
I swear I wasn't cat-napping
To edge into your life
I didn't notice no sad thing
(It's a sundance)
To the strange strains that you entice
Now you may walk into an ocean view
(Exciting)
It's like you have understood
And I was just talking at you
Talking at you
For the good inside, the good inside of us
Do you send me?
No, you're a kind of dream
But somewhere in the scheme of things
We'll find who's Thursday's Child
We don't have to undo you
Or entertain your kind
Only reason I talk to you
Is 'cos I think you maybe, a heart attack is blind
And checking out your resume
And making out your plans
The kisses are not something we can talk about
They happened - and you laughed about it
Laugh out loud
Do you send me?
No, you're a kind of dream
But somewhere in the scheme of things
We'll find who's Thursday's Child
Once,
Is our boast
Do you?
Would you?
Only excite me
To join us is a talking clock
He tells us everything - we want him to stop
But somewhere in the corner
He's a-laughin', he's a-crying out loud
For some kind of attention which isn't shrouded by
Nicety is something which hangs around this stage
Believe me when I tell you - you can act around it
Mewl and puke about it
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to join in
This is a kindly creamer
A kindly crematorium
Do you send me?
No, you're a kind of dream
But somewhere in the scheme of things
Well I might be politic
Or I might just grab your hand
I'm not selfish with my story
I just want something, understand
Oh, this world is not for grieving
It's not grieving for my cry
And I hate this growl inside
And you better believe it when I tell you
That it's all growing
Untill you learn to trust
Well this wash it wasn't easy
No this wash just doesn't dream
It just makes the whole thing cluttered, yes
And when you've seen the sights it's best to scream
I'm not stolen from the souless
I'm just driven to the white
So, you really ought to catch me now
You really ought to join the fight
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it's
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Well, no one wants to play this
Well, no one likes the dark
And we just checked in for higher love
Well, that's another - you like sparks
Well, I'll fly across the evening
Least, I'll smile across the hall to you
But it better not be fascinate
It beter just be wall-to-wall
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it'sOnce and not speak
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Well, I'm the tired recluse, yes
And I'm tired of this courtyrad
And every grateful day's the herdline
Well, the crafty were just leaving
They've forgotten how to talk
And that slither through the evening
Was just another kind of walk with me
Well, I'll tell you what you wanted
Leat I'll stunt you with my grace
And I know it's all so easy
But I just want to find your face
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it's
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
You know it's alright
Just to take me home
To your serious house, with your serious tones
You're a serious man, with a serious smile
But the summer is hot and I might surprise you
In a very short while we'll have left them behind
With their faces quite pained
As they try to remind themselves
Oh, it's really so wrong
It's really so out
And it's really not cool to take a young girl about
And I know the young man with a century's face
A philosopher king - he will try to amaze
With examples of love and examples of hate
And to see them explode
We will just have to
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
But first I'll tell you about mine
You know it's alright to be trustful, have tact
But the problem's complex
When you keep holding back
We could talk for an hour
We could talk for a day
But the people we know would still have their say
Talk of such virtuous women
Talk of such noble men
But if I'm on the level I have met none of them
Oh, I've met troubled people with deep and dark thoughts
Who have hallowed my name
And sworn I will get caught
But why waste real feeling and
Why waste our time
To let the earth bow to no virtue of
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
But first I'll tell you about mine
You know it's alright to just make mistakes
But to tail in with hurt - is the gravest make
We all create lives which we don't understand
But to point the accused is a job for no man
And we curse our own longing - and curse our own ways
I won't be satisfied with my soul that's
It's a simple love story
It grows better all the time
You can tell me all about it
Well, he said it like he meant it
But he did not really care
So I sat upon the Eve's embraces
I was never there -
No, I was never really fabled
I was never really lost
I was cunning through that habit of mine
Y'see all the words were lost
Yes, all the words were lost
And you can stand upon your own life
Say it always seemed to seal
There were smiles upon the picture
But I don't know what to feel
And I told a million stories
And I sat down to risk half
But I never really meant it
'Til you came and stole my heart away
You came and stole my heart away
And even if your real thought
Hid a thousand words away
And even if you never knew
It all came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
Well, the rain scales up
And your soul is drowned
And mother's saying still raise a frown
And mother's saying still makes you see
What you have lost instead of me
And even if your real thought
Hid a thousand words away
And even if you never knew
It all came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
And even though the starlight falls
And takes your breah away
You still stare up towards the toss
I don't know what to say
I don't know how to be alone
With some kind fretless friend
And even though the Harvest brings
Well, we all begin again
I say we all begin again
And even if your real thought
Hid a thousand words away
And even if you never knew
It all came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
It all, it all, all, all
All came back today
I would like this sun
Be spoke until I find
I was all remembrance
I wore a watch today it didn't tell me the time
I saw your face today I knew you'd see through mine
Does it help a lot? to see I'm on the spot never understood
But I knew you yea I knew you
But I knew you yea I knew you
I heard your voice today turn into what is best
I felt your soft caress turn into something less
Don't make me sound alive don't make me sound a - hurt
Don't make me, make - believe
'cause I knew you yea I knew you
Yes I knew you yea I knew you
It doesn't make me lie doesn't make you wise
Do not analyse 'cos I'd always cry
Does it help a lot just to see you through 'cos, I'll never know
But I knew you yea I knew you
But I knew you yea I knew you
La la la la la la ah la la la la la la ah
Nobody would know your name nobody would know your name
It was a lonely summer where I have been your shelter following your footsteps will you be my first regret?
Sorry if I'm foolish making myself secrets seems to come between us
And we always leave them there, my child always leave them there...
Who will love you?
Do you break my heart? do I have to go? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Now you're falling
Do we have to cheat? do we have to lie? does it mean I've loved somebody?
Who will hold you?
Do we learn to cry? do we have to hate? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Waiting in the cold like this always feeling nervous hiding in the shadows I'm sure I can't get caught you know
I can't keep together any of my thoughts how they feel but I just came round to talk, you know
Always here to talk...
Who will need me?
Do you break my heart? do I have to go? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Now I'm losing
Do we have to cheat? do we have to lie? does it mean I've loved somebody?
Who will hold me?
Do we learn to cry? do we have to hate? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Now I'm fighting amore si
Does it mean I'm real? does it make me sane?
Who will need me?
Do you break my heart? do I have to go? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Now I'm losing
Do we have to cheat? do we have to lie? does it mean I've loved somebody?
Who will hold me?
Do we learn to cry? do we have to hate? does it mean we've loved somebody?
Now I'm fighting amore si
You give
More than me
And you live like
Men and women
In the shade
More than me
Yes, you hide like
Men and women
Men and women
Jealous, born
And young at heart
And these walls like
Men and women
Men and women
Yeah - yeah
Yeah - yeahAnd chance alone
Are gifts I give
And watered down
To men and women
Men and women
And the drag past
And the walk past
And the days last long
And your eyes shine
And I see mine in them
And I see myself
Men and women
Men and women
As always I stop to speak
Some girls like to say their piece
As always I turn to you
Don't understand what you're doing
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found -
Little sister leaving town
Says the poet "I won't grass"
Some things are better left and not taken to task
I guess I knew she was a Rose
She knows what hurts and how to hold
If your daddy he turned round
Let the grass around him scream the sound
I'm so sorry for these tales you're telling
Sometimes you can't account
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found -
Little sister leaving town
And sometimes it's absurd
A minor triumph when you hear the words
"I'm just trying to stake my place
No real fears upon this face"
And my wishes
Nobody says
All the signs when I cross the days
I'm just holding back for you
Sometimes that helps too
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found -
Oh, my
When you are not all together
And you feel your face is a fiery place
For many tears
Who looks upon a picture and really feels a thrill
Oh, not me
Who looks into their past and feels they could leave
And you'd think by looking at his soul
That it really is his woman who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
Oh, my
When you are not really moving
And you feel your feet have been put to sleep
For many years
Who looks into a city
And really feels at home
Oh, not me
Who looks into the dark
And yearns to be free
And you'd think by looking at his soul
That it really is his woman who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
Boy,
A lot of things are very simple
A lot of things are logical
When held into your hands
Boy,
A lot of things are very simple
A lot of things are very simple
And they fall apart
When they fall apart
Oh, my
When you are not really living
And you feel your heart
Is the biggest part of all your fears
Who looks upon a lover and really feels desire
Oh, not me
Who looks into themselves and likes what they see
And you'd think by looking at his soul
That it really is his woman who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
Who'd cheat on the world
It's a long day
For me and my world
It's a long day
To be your girl
It's been a hard times
Spent missing so much
But still I love you
To wish this,
To wishes
It takes some caring
To have enough
It takes some pleasing
To keep us crossed
And growing harder
To keep you crowned
But such a true look can be
To wish this
To wishes
Some dust in my eye
Some movement cries
Some will and won't
Some he has shown me love
It takes a murmur
To keep this touch
It's a murmur
Who wants this touch?
To such a soft heart
It can be found
To hush this longing
To wish this
To wishes
It takes a long day
To find your world
It takes a long day
To be your girl
But it's the right time
To feel this much
I still love you
To wish this
If I ever wanna be someone
These words undone an evil spell in me
If I ever need to tell someone
This one's who's waiting
So patiently
Good enough
When nothing means enough
It's just time-sweeping
Some time-beaten
Some time with me
If I ever need to hide away
You tell sometime
And still I pray for love
If I ever need to tell too much
You hide sometimes
It never means this love
Good enough
When nothing means enough
It's just time-sweeping
Some time-beaten
Some time with me
I owe you
Not to dance and scar
I owe you
But you never know
No, you never know
If I ever want to shy away
These words, truth spoken
And still I play around
Just to tell you that it's never true
This mind is aching -
It's just for you
Good enough
When nothing means enough
It's just time-sweeping
Some time-beaten
Some time with me
It's just time-sweeping
Some time-beaten
Some time with me
It's just time-sweeping
Some time-beaten
Where everybody was
Where everbody go?
Well, I'm so sorry boy
I don't really know
Oh, how did you do today?
Well, I'm telling you this much
I might seem like a paying girl
But I've never had enough
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
Where somebody waits for me
Waste half an evening
Wasted half my time
Just to tell how I'm living this
And keeping us in line
Oh, how did you do today?
Well, it never seems to speak
Yes, I'm sure that I'm keeping this
But it's keeping me too weak
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
Where somebody waits for me
Old bones steal weakness
Old bones stay sane
All days come on speak to us
You can be what you say
You can be what you say
Air - everybody sings
Everybody dreams
Well, you know how it went for me
But it never seemed to mean
Where everybody needs
Where everybody hides
Where the sweetness settles me
Well you know if you're feeling this
It let's everbody cry
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
One day to wonder what's bothering me -
(You said it)
I'm just the half of this - that just won't see -
(Believe it)
If I am wishing I am hoping as well
(Sometimes I)
I tell you clearly
But it's hard to tell
Someone will watch me with an eager eye -
(But I'm not)
I'm not even here, to even try
If the rain stops calling, calling my name
Well, I'm still in the thick of it and bearing the shame
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me, but one day
You'll wake up and then you'll see
Some times are hard, some times they drag
Well, I can see your face - you've seen the half of this
Maybe, I'm naming all the changes too much
(But see you), you never leave it if you have to touch
(And I will) always be waiting with a happy smile
But the smile is just a laughing
Killer - laugh-a-while
Don't know what I'm doing here
Don't know if I'm sane
But I swear if I'm feeling this -
I'm feeling the pain
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)Oh, no - you don't deliver in me, but one day
You'll wake up and then you'll see
And I can't be your standards
Wish you away
No, I can't be all this much
See you still have too much to say
Some skies are darkening and call out loud
Well, I'm the good side of you and I'm still proud
To be waiting for lightness when you stray
Well I'm sure that I hear him
He's slipping away
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no - you don't deliver in me, but one day
Can you tell me?
Can you see it?
My eyes dreamt it
My eyes sent it a thousand pieces
'Course I love it
It makes me cold
Amongst the ashes
Drinking the rainbow
Can you tell me?
How to turn?
The very feelings, the very feelingd
That make me burn
The very music I have heard
Inside your heart
To drink the rainbow - I try very hard
To drink the rainbow - I try very hard
You should want me
To take along
The very seasons, the very seasons
I've waited on
The very music I have heard
Inside your heart
To drink the rainbow
I try very hard
To drink the rainbow
I try very hard
Can you show me?
Where it leads?
The very feelings, the very feelings
That make me bleed
The very music I have heard
Inside your heart
To drink the rainbow - I try very hard
To drink the rainbow - I try very hard
Everyone has said that I might go
'Cos my red suitcase and my ray-bans
Weren't quite so
I'd bear the heavy wind and rain that falls
I'll never come back again
'Cos you know I laugh when winter shows her hand
Well, that picture framed the saddest thing you'll see
But it bought me time and a place that love could be
And since I'm going now please rearrange
'Cos I'd like to think that things have changed
I don't believe you'll be open anymore
Tell me if, you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me
Well, everyone was hoping you would stay a while
Tell us 'bout that great land in the south
I see that man - now ain't he under offer?
I tell you child you go wash out your mouth
Tell me if, you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me
What can you say
I'm hiding in the belfry
What can you say - I want to catch time
How can you say you know anything about me
Well I knew about you - but I won't care about you
Everyone has come to see. Well somethings have to do
Flowers out for this photographic haunt, but they all pass me by
But the age is not a funny game, it don't give such a buzz
And when I winced with ignorance
You've a beautiful body and a wonderful mind
These are things I've been stumbling towards
And I think you've been kind towards me
There are wonderful moments
The gifts I've received
And the knowledge is hurting
But I guess it comes back to the things that you no longer need
I'm an evil young hustler
To be so curious
These are evil young thoughts here
To be so jealous, so jealous
When a beautiful thought can
Can be just thrown away
'Cos i tell you - I'm used to looking and turning my back on them
Some things you say
Just to be sociable
And somethings you feel
'Cos you're young and you're gullible
And sometimes I'm watching
Sometimes I'm too scared
And sometimes I'm able, I'm useful
I'm holding you
Holding you
You've a beautiful body
And a wonderful mind
These are things I've been stumbling towards
And I think you've been kind towards me
I'm a wonderful shadow
Whose sweetness is brief
For there's nothing like lovers
Who cry in the night
Wanting to need you
and wanting to need you
And hoping that you'll feel it too
We almost got it together
And I'll be your favourite thing
Stand by the river with hard-luck eyes
And I'll just be open and sing
I was only trying to surprise
I wish I was like the frog-princess
And I'd never tell you lies
And down by the soil of the hard-life
They like to greet us with smiles
They like to tell us their good hostess
Had travelled a million miles
But you'd like it written closer
Yes, you'd like it written pure
If I told you this -
Would you miss my kiss?
No - you'd come right back for more
Oh, I'd like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
But I'll still be here when you're gone
And there's a light by your window
And I'd like to capture you by there
And I'd like to hold you for all to see
But they don't really care
And if I said you're no peccadillo
Yes, I said you're a major thing
Would you stand by me?
At the corner dock
And say, "yes, this girl is the swing!"
Oh, I'd like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
But I'll still be here when you're gone
And I'd like another cue
That's why I strain to see
And I'd like the best in you
'Cos you write the best in me
They were sure that I'd be burning
Yes -
So their tart swerve to here might be
But if I said "you're gold, inside",
Yes and if you were true to me
Would you hang around with that creepy smile
And crawl home back to me
Oh, I'd like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
All God's children need traveling shoes
Drive your problems from here
All good people read good books
Now your conscience is clear
I hear you talk girl, now your conscience is clear
In the mornin' when I wipe my brow
Wipe the miles away
I like to think I can be so willed
And never do what you say
I'll never hear you and never do what you say
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
We just poked a little empty pie
For the fun that people had at night
Late at night, don't need hostility
Timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thoughts
Different thoughts are good for me
Up in arms and chaste and whole
All God's children took their toll
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
Cup of tea, take time to think, yeah
Time to risk a life, a life, a life
Sweet and handsome, soft and porky
You pig out 'til you've seen the light
Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
I'm not there
If ever I was there
I'm sure I was never so bold
If ever I spoke so - I'm sure it's trouble
Not my trouble
I'm not so sure if I control this laughter
Everything herafter
Everything is bound to be trouble
Yeah, not my trouble
Trouble
No, not my trouble
If I was to blame
I'm sure we'll work it out
If I was to blame
I'm sure it was about
Trouble
Not my trouble
It's not my game
It's not mine
It's not my game
There is a tired face
A hiding to nothing face
A face that you keep to explore this trouble
You trouble me more and more
Trouble me more
I'm not certain
I ever could explain
Never certain
But I do need to explain
Trouble
Not my trouble
Trouble
i must have left my house at eight because I always do my train,
i'm certain left the station just when it was due
i must have read the morningpaper, going into town and having gotten through the editorial no doubt
i must have frowned
i must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
with letters to be read and heaps of paper waiting to be signed
i must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so the usual place, the usual
bunch and still on top of this I'm pretty sure
it must have rained the day before you came
i must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
and at the time I never even noticed I was blue
i must have kept on dragging
through the business of the day and without really knowing anything I hid
a part of me away at five I must have left there's no exception to the rule
a matter of routine I've done it ever since
i finished school the train back home again undoubtedly
i must have read the evening paper then
oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within it's usual frame the day before you came
i must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so
and stopped along the way to buy some chinese food to go
i'm sure I had my dinner watching something on tv there's not,
i think, a single episode of dallas that I didn't see
i must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
i need a lot of sleep and so I like to be in bed by then
i must have read a while the latest one by marilyn french or something in that style
it's funny but I had no sense of living without aim
the day before you came
and turning out the light
i must have yawned and cuddled up to yet another night
and rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
The woman smiles, the cafe feels like home to you
And as she glances through the magazine you feel somehow, she's seen you, too
All my life I thought you said
All my life I heard you say
It'll be all right
(All my life)
If you stay for all my life, for all my life
As she turns her face I feel unsure, is it foolish to want much more?
And as I place the moments in the frame it's to these, I return again
All my life I thought you said
All my life I heard you say
It'll be all right
(All my life)
If you stay for all my life, for all my life
Tell me, tell me
We could be together
Your sun
Doesn't make it easy for me
Way I breathed before
Now I don't breathe - no more freely
And I like
To catch the shoulder where you cry
My business -
A message in the sky
If it's a long time coming
Just carry, carry somebody else's blame
If it's a long time coming
Let us start the speech again
My clown -
Hooked the rose between his teeth
Stole into the night
To my laugh was quiet relief
And your spice - let me roll it through my tongue
When I'm caught and older
I'll still be caught beneath this sun
And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear
And time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes - or you'll cry
'Cos I know sunset's
I know sunset's
I know sunset's arrived
Your light -
Let the shadows take it down
There's no sense in the beginning -
With the cover on your frown
And my light -
Makes the shade, a shade too black
And though I choose this
You still choose to have me back -
And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear
And time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes - or you'll cry
'Cos I know sunset's
I know sunset's
I know sunset's arrived
While you were out yonder
Checking out the scene
Maybe you'll lose your thunder
Maybe you'll lose your dream
And my heat
Is only striking hot for you
'Cos I'm not shaking easy
I'm just acting from your one
And "Hey Boss!"
You couldn't make it on your own
Sure I've stamped you easy
And I'll lead you back to home
And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear
And time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes - or you'll cry
'Cos I know sunset's
I know sunset's
Often
Too often closed
With a little beauty
And the right supposing
Suppose I meet you
And make you feel
There is no real reason
Why I be real for you
For you - it's just - a -
A dozen dreamers
This is the way I will it
Sometimes -
I'm sometimes
I'm just, just, just too much
Just too much
And I don't know
And never known
And all I ever want to be
And I can't tell you
I can't tell you
But it's never really near to me
Sunface, sunface, sunface, sunface
And, closing up
And winding down
This little beautiful
This little wonder ground
How would it be
To take your hand
I'm not the easy kind
I'll never understand
And somehow
Make it seem so right
This is the easy child
Who's going to face the light
Sunface, sunface
Some felt it, some felt it
Sunface, sunface
Some felt it, some felt it
And walk around
And touch the view
There is an easy angle
Least that is true
And truth's enough
To make me smile
Everbody's able and
Everybody's trial
And if you're really
High enough
To be the pauper
And take the rough
well the easy time will never be
But your comet's down
And it shines on me
(Just a)
Sunface, sunface, sunface, sunface
Sunface, sunface, sunface, sunface
I'm happy to be here
I'm happy to be with you
For where in a lifetime
Do we do the things we really want to
Now old friends they watch lovers
They wonder where we're going to
They know each look from the other
And they accuse you, accuse you
It's on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
Don't do this to me, stop listening, start calling my name
Stop turning from me, start feeling I'm here, stop listening
Keep holding me
I'm happy to lie here
Well, I'm happy to touch your face
I've got nothing to fear here
So these feelings, they cannot be placed
Oh, why do you never listen? What do you ever want?
It's funny how I feel like, some kind of person
Another kind of person I would never like to be
Your on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
Can't do this to you, stop listening, I keep calling your name
I'm not turning from you, start feeling I'm here, stop teasing me
Keep holding me
You can be fragile I don't care I'll always be there
Can't do this to you, stop listening, I keep calling your name yes I do
I'm not turning from you, start feeling I'm here, stop teasing me
Give me a stand
A standing ovation, baby
Give me a road
Which I can tail
You don't know nothing, baby
So don't pretend
Or you might pay
Cost
It's costing me nothing, baby
I might feel some shame
But I don't care
And if you won't mind
Just moving the fireside, baby
I'd rather be cold
Than lying over there
No, this ain't sighing innocents
This ain't sighing innocents
No this ain't sighing innocents
I'm just trying to follow you
And if you walk
I might just tag along
It only be shop talk, some
Well that's something to do
Or I might take a walk down
By the river, baby
But no I won't
No I won't be waiting for you
No, this ain't sighing innocents
This ain't sighing innocents
No this ain't sighing innocents
I'm just trying to follow you
Sorry but sense
That (no one will miss you)
That no one will miss you
If you die
They might send a wreath
They might send a reason
They might send a reason
But us, we know
Join in the sus
It's always the same man
He's taking a stroll
And then they tie him to his ghost
I know it's sad
But you never listen
No, you never listen
Well I might be politic
Or I might just grab your hand
I'm not selfish with my story
I just want something, understand
Oh, this world is not for grieving
It's not grieving for my cry
And I hate this growl inside
And you better believe it when I tell you
That it's all growing
Untill you learn to trust
Well this wash it wasn't easy
No this wash just doesn't dream
It just makes the whole thing cluttered, yes
And when you've seen the sights it's best to scream
I'm not stolen from the souless
I'm just driven to the white
So, you really ought to catch me now
You really ought to join the fight
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it's
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Well, no one wants to play this
Well, no one likes the dark
And we just checked in for higher love
Well, that's another - you like sparks
Well, I'll fly across the evening
Least, I'll smile across the hall to you
But it better not be fascinate
It beter just be wall-to-wall
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it's
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
Well, I'm the tired recluse, yes
And I'm tired of this courtyrad
And every grateful day's the herdline
Well, the crafty were just leaving
They've forgotten how to talk
And that slither through the evening
Was just another kind of walk with me
Well, I'll tell you what you wanted
Leat I'll stunt you with my grace
And I know it's all so easy
But I just want to find your face
And if I tell you all my secrets
That you ever wanted to hear - it's
Once and not speak
Once and not speak
And I
Go dancing for a little
Have never felt so little
Fear the stars in their eyes
You feel them lie
So close
You never dare to breathe
You never dare the stars
In their eyes
Their eyes
Am I?
Supposed to even say
Suppose I even say
I see they're lovers eyes
Their love - tonight
So loose
It never seemed so much
It never seemed so
So why?
So why?
My love tonight
And I -
Will never need this much
Will never see the moon so starry eyed
My love tonight
My love and I
Brother - won't you, walk you town?
Don't you ever wanna stray?
See, I've been seeing someone in this town
And they don't wanna stay
Mud in any water - see you
See you laugh and sing
Everbody will be happy
Everbody will bring
Mud in any water - bring me
Never want to be alone
Can't you ever sense it - send me?
Somebody bring me home
Mud in any water
He brings - He don't wanna shy today
'Course the people want their friends
But they don't want their friends true
'Course the people want their friends
But they don't want their friends true
Mud in any water - want you
See you laugh and sing
Everbody will be happy
Everbody will bring
Have a shot at any heaven
Have a shot at any heart
Have a shot at where you're taking
Maybe let me know my heart
Heaven seller
Heaven celebrate
Helps to bring us all around
Mud in any water's danger
But you look to where it's found
I got shot of any harbour
I got shot of any trial
Where the people are so open
Where my openess - a child
Mud in any water - see you
See you laugh and sing
Everbody will be happy
You give
More than me
And you live like
Men and women
In the shade
More than me
Yes, you hide like
Men and women
Men and women
Jealous, born
And young at heart
And these walls like
Men and women
Men and women
Yeah - yeah
Yeah - yeah
And chance alone
Are gifts I give
And watered down
To men and women
Men and women
And the drag past
And the walk past
And the days last long
And your eyes shine
And I see mine in them
And I see myself
Men and women
Well, our dog beats in his own heart
Our dog was from the start
Not much use in the rain
Not much use in the sun
Put it outside and let the paint run
Put it outside and let the paint run
Well, our mean day was not heaven sent
Couldn't stay, couldn't raise the rent
Couldn't stay-a-little - let us be
Couldn't stay - so we set it free
Supposing
I meet you
We waste some time
Supposing, I let you
You still be in mind, mind, mind, mind
Enter - kisses not able
Not able to turn some tricks
Not able to give me favours
Not even when I'm thick with it
And my heart wasn't a stranger
But it sure made no sense to me
Made no sense to any flavour that came
Sown in so cautiously
Hearts still
Yearn to
Make the sign
Watching
You send me in mind, mimd, mind, mind
Well, our old stairs are all the same
The same weather, the same wood stain
You can beep from the left
You can beep from the right
Put it outside and let them turn wide
Put it outside and let them turn wide
Well, no respect, no leniency
Was not ever so well spooked in me
Was not evil so it hangs OK
This is the world in which we play
This is the world in which we play
Harder
Sane, spent and all awake
Their eyes
Shame me -
With their mistakes
I'd never call this an unpleasant situation
I'd never teach you how to lie
But sometimes I have been walking numb
And I must catch myself before I cry
Before I cry
I never call anything ugly
I never call anything strange and alone
I never want to, take things lightly
Like they have never been my own
Oh, don't - now I haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't - I havn't heard
But I know them - and they are inclined to see
Just who is
And isn't
A lover in the city
I always thought I would be star bright
I always thought you'd feel it too
But sometimes I have been making conversation
And I must catch myself
Before I'm down
I'm down on you
I never think they would be scaring me
scared couples in the cold
They look so fine in their eagerness
I wonder to myself just how they know
Oh, don't - now I haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't - I havn't heard
But I know them - and they are inclined to see
Just who is
And isn't
A lover in the city
I swear
I'm staking out the whole world
I swear
I'm staking out the whole world
I'm staking out the whole world
I could never entertain you
I'd be far too scared to try
But sometimes I have been talking dumb
And I forget myself
And I forget myself
And don't ask, why?
Oh, don't - now I haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't - I havn't heard
But I know them - and they are inclined to see
Just who is
And isn't
Love don't need no tyranny
Love to bring you down
When I'm older and forgiven
All forgiveness - must be living
Love don't need no tyranny
Want to bring me down
When I'm older and forgiven
All is easy - all forgiven
Can't be forced to stop this living - now
And what about your very second wind
And what about the new beginning
And what about the way you stare
And want it
Way you stare and feel
You want it
Love don't need no tyranny
Love to bring you down
When you're crying - it's not easy
It's not easy to be found
Love don't need no tyranny
Love to bring you down
When I'm laughing - always laughing
Keeping you in, keeping me in
Keeping going
And what about? The all time mover
And what about? The all time shiver
And what about?
I do believe you -when I need you
I must believe you
Love don't need no tyranny
Love to bring you down
When I'm sure - and not so sure
Needs assurance
Taste assurance
Love don't need no tyranny
Love to bring you down
Whe you're running - always running
Just to keep your face from turning
Thinking back, could I feel much older? and my stance couldn't feel much colder
Can they tell what I'm getting over now? in the park I've seen you walking
And in my dreams I've heard you talking can they tell what I'm getting over now?
'Cos you light up the world yeah, you light up the world
In this time, and times to come I do not know if your hopes have won
I do not care where you think you'll find it and I do not care if I fall behind
Thinking back I was so much younger thinking back you were so much more tender
Thinking back, will it make me hunger now?
For you, light up the world
Yeah you, light up the world
Well there's something about the girl
Yeah there's something about her world
There's something for everyone
Have you found yourself in the frame of mind?
Where no-one can be too kind
And there's so little lost
There must be a life to trust there
And if I try I know I'll be there
When the phone calls - I blew it
I'm going home - I blew it
You know, so, well where I'm going
So long - leave me alone
The times change - I don't believe that
The times change
I'm deceived by the hum
Makes all days go circling round me
You were always doing best by me
You were always so true
But here sometimes
In here sometimes
There's still someone watching for you
My love - could not stand all this
To love - could not stand all the heartache
What didn't know back then
Was that I might be crying
It is such a simple sentiment
To steal the show
And what I didn't know back then
Is that I might be losing you
And still I wouldn't know
And now I suck up to the pale moonlight
Like it's gonna lead me home
And I shiver in my tired clothes
As if that could keep me warm
And now I stare across the dirty river
And I'm sure upon this bridge I'll see you
Cos I dreamt I'd kiss you up there
WHat I didn't know back then
Is how great the sin
How time goes so slowly
When you're cheating on a friend
And what I didn't know back then
Is that I might be needing you
Yeah I might be needing you
The need it doesn't end
And now I stare across the dirty river
And I breathe the dirty air
And I'm sure upon the bridge I'll see you
'Cos I dreamt I'd kiss you there
What I didn't know back then
Was that I might be crying
It's such a simple sentiment
You don't want to do too much staring at the evening sun
Maybe you cannot stand up but you have become one
I just want to see her smile maybe she will never hurt
And all that I have yearned to touch, well, I have made worse
Is she all you need? ah, you fools first agreed
I don't want to spoil your game every day is bound to change
Making every move seem wise in her dark eyes
No, I don't want to be the clown making like I've seen too much
When everything from here is down I am the head-rush
Is she all you need? would you steal from me?
Is she all you see?
And the sky, the sky, the sky is shining the sky, the sky is mine
Now I don't want to lose at love maybe you would take the chance
Struggling in anothers world I'm just losing at once
Is she all you need? (she all you need?)
She's been too far, too far from me
And she's all, all, all, that you see
Yea, the sky, the sky is mine
Yea, the sky, the sky is mine
I don't want to lose at love I don't want to lose at love
Now, the sky, the sky was mine yeah the sky was mine the sky, the sky was mine the sky was mine
I don't want to lose at love I don't want to lose at love
We don't talk about our better selves
As it is - I survive and survive so well
Yes, y'know it, hovering on the edge of life
Is so exciting
Baby, you can take me home
Because dinner is
Dinner served alone
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
And in the darkness of the avenue
Boys in sharp suits and smiles
Girls with their recipe for romance
Are wide-eyed to the child
And as the stars shine brightly over them
Love will blossom once again
It's hot - got that sizzle
It's sizzle, sizzle, sizzlke
'Til then
Taking home new apprentice
Clearer bubble -
Always very hard to do
Because dinner is -
Dinner served for two
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
And every mother, father and son
Chant little lullabye for one and all to see
What life should be
Waiting for the chance
To hear your life has changed
When baby you can take me home
Because dinner is -
Dinner served alone
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
Now, who wants hot pork sandwiches?
Wrapped in foil
Corners are laced with gristle
I trust it's been freshly boiled
La-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-yeah-e-yeah
Da da da da da da dum
La-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-yeah-e-yeah
Da da da da da da dum
Da da da da da
When the voice says
You should not stumble,
You should not frighten
Or feel so ashamed,
'Cos all the chores are light
And all the psalms are wiped
When you smash it
Make it easy
When you want to
Stand alone
My friends are praying
For a good soft reason
For a good soft reason
To make them laugh again
I'll make you laugh if you want to
I'll make you smile at the footsteps
I'll make you laugh at the winter
And bring you back down to land
But if you stay on the wrong side
And if you laugh at the sunlight
I'm not asking for comfort
I'm just after the same
I'm just after the same
If you winced then
Why the man won't be coming
If you waste us -
It's what we earned
And if you call souless
About the beginnings
I'll call for easiness
Come back to the world -
Come back in the open
Stand now by the root's life
Come out to show us
You'll be back home again
Now I'm not superstitious
About being so alarming
About moving with the changes
About holding your hand
Now I believe when they told me
It was all down to fever
It's all down to the harm that's
The harm that's in your hands
Harm in your hands
Harm in your hands
Now, I'm not saying that I want you
It's like taking your chances
It's like hoping for a straight line
When I'm falling into space
I'm just talking about the license
That I'd like you to give me
That I'd like you to give me
Command -
Come on dance
Come on dance
I'm toting my whole life
And I'm toting the good side
And I hope you believe it
When I say - I'll see you through
There's nobody will ache so much
Nobody will so much
Ache so much for you
I'll make you laugh if you want to
I'll make you smile at the footsteps
I'll make you laugh at the winter
And bring you back down to land
But if you stay on the wrong side
And if you laugh at the sunlight
I'm not asking for comfort
I'm just after the same
I'm just after the same
Now I'm not superstitious
About being so alarming
About moving with the changes
About holding your hand
Now I believe when they told me
It was all down to fever
It's all down to the harm that's
The harm that's in your hands
Harm in your hands
Criss-cross laces
You have the centre
You have the cinnamon
In the centre
You shouldn't be alone
You should just pick up yourself
And shine yourself
And make yourself fit a bran new maybe
in the side streets
You been walking
I have been walking too
So, you know the faces
You know how they'll flirt with you
Well, I know my favourite language
Well, it trickles down my mouth
If this is me
Being close to you
Being somewhere like the last night we spend together
That is something next to nothing
That is something
So, I got my truth of many colours
I got my fears
Another shade
But when I'm riding my happy taxi
I guess I got it made
Who's that creeping?
In the street there
Who's that creeping?
By your window
She might know something
She might show you some things
You never really want to share forever
Mean forever
'Cos it feels so slow
We drove out like something special
In our special rags
Well, I know that something special happens!
When we drive our sad to happy
We go driving
In our happy taxi
in our happy taxi
I am not the
First street preacher
Not the first to
Want to lead you
Not the first to
Leave your money
Not the first to
Leave your home
Not the first to
Leave forever
Glad to go
When love has gone
So where am I going?
Where am I going tonight?
So where am I staying?
In my happy moonlight
In my happy taxi
In my happy taxi
In my happy taxi
In my happy taxi
In my happy taxi
In my happy taxi
Would you drive on down
Would you drive on down
Would you drive on down
In my happy taxi
Elephant
Ain't going home
Ain't going home
To be your friend
Elephant
Ain't going home
To start a fire
To be your friend
Elephant
Ain't going home
Ain't going out
To start a fight
Elephant
To start a fire
To be your friend
It isn't right
Elephant
Hate being short
Hate being long
Hate being lost
Hate being round
Hate being round about your lost cause
Elephant
Ain't getting wired
Ain't getting lied to all the time
Elephant
I can't hear
I can't hear
The one you want
But it makes more sense
To be near the riverside
Yeah, it makes more sense
'Cos the grass grows high
It makes more sense
To be near to you baby
The very, very, very, very sad truth is
I never think sensibly
Thr very, very, very, very, very sad truth is
I never think
Bothers me
Elephant
Getting tired
Getting lied to
All the time
Elephant
You make it
You make it seem
So available
Elephant
Ain't going down
Ain't going down
To take a look
To take a look
Would bring me down
Would bring me down
I saw you from the cathdral
You were watching me
And I saw from the cathedral
What I should be
So take my lies
And take my time
'Cos all the others want to take my life
And I watch you with an intent, basic
It's the same for you
You hold your hand
And it's all fine - laced and
What would you make me do?
So take my lies
And take my time
'Cos all the others want to take my life
Serious for the winter time
To wrench my soul
whole cotton, whole cotton ears
But I know there must be
There must be, yes, I know there must be a place to go
You saw me from the cathedral
Well I'm an ancient heart
Yes, you saw me from the cathedral
Well here we are just falling apart
You catch me
I am tired
I want all that you are
I saw you from the cathedral
You were leaving me
And I saw from the cathedral
You could not see to see
So take my lies
And take my time
