Take a moment if you dare
Catch yourself a breath of air
There's another life out there
And you should try it
Dead ends hide on every street
Look before you place your feet
Cracks and fissures keep the beat
And you're inside it
Every thought you never dared to think
Every mood you always knew would sink
Every line you spoke out loud in a jest
All the time you took to be your best
Soon forgotten
The sun must never touch your skin
It could expose the dark within
You're paranoid about the paranoia
And panic hits without a sign
You worry about it all the time
Every perfect moment is a hidden warning
'Cause everything makes your pretty head spin
And nagging thoughts are starting to sink in
With everything this way it's better to forget
Than end up in a place with something to regret
Your transatlantic shopping spree
Your health forever guarantees
Organic bio life's a breeze in cosy prisons
But hiding out in a salad bar
Isn't gonna get you far
And bottled wine is vinegar tomorrow
Everything around here makes your pretty head spin
It's piling up high and you're back where you begin
Moments you have tried so hard to forget
Are promising to have been the best one's yet
Yeah, every time you shut your eyes it appears
Every time you trace your steps back here
None of your convictions have the same old ring
No doubt you've found a place for everything
In cosy prisons
So if you're careful
You won't get hurt
But if your careful all the time

One, two, three, four
Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
I know that I'm alive
Open up inside
Make me want you
Make me want to
Wrap yourself around me
Hold me tighter
Hold me tight as only you can
Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
You sharpened up my senses
I know you're on my side
Celice
Its in the way you teach me
Celice
To chase the thoughts away
You open up my eyes
Made me want you
Made me want to
You know it feels so nice
Hold me tight now
Hold me tight as can be
Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
Its in the way you hurt me
(Oh, hold me tightly)
Celice
I know that I'm alive
(Hold me, hold me tightly)
Celice
You sharpened all my senses

Take a look and see
What's become of me
Remember how it used to be
People that we'd meet
Were falling at your feet
You didn't eve see it
Time marches on ahead - enough said
There's only one way through it
Time marches on ahead - one day we'll see it
How there's a fine blue line
Running through it
We read each other's books
We gave each other looks
Like we couldn't trust ourselves
And we knew it
So tell me where you've been
And I'll show you were you're going
You can shout, you can scream
Your way through it...
Well time rushes an ahead - enough said
That's just the way we blew it
Time marches on ahead - one day you'll see it;
Love is a fine blue line
Time races on ahead - enough said
That's just the way we blew it
Time marches on ahead - one day you'll see it
Love is the fine blue line
Running through it

Dearest...
Close your eyes now
Don't you cry
It's all right
Lie back
Leave the lights on
It's all right, dear
I'll be here through the night
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come tonight
It's all right now
Don't you cry now
Hush...
Wipe your tears away
There's never a forever thing
All through the night
I'll try so hard to be there somehow
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come
Tonight
Darling, don't you

Hurry home
Freight train running
I've been gone
Too long, honey
Why did I waste away
The only good thing left to save me
Hurry home
Freight train running
She's alone
Got no money
(She's alone...she got no money
Coming home, I've done my running)
Coming home
No more running
Why now should I deny
The only true thing left inside me
Coming home
No more running
I'm doing right
For once in my life now
I'm doing right
For once in my life now
No more running...
(He's doing right!)
(Rolling countries... fields unfolding
I swear the winds are calling)
So I hurry home
No more running
She's all alone
She got no money
(She's alone...she got no money
coming home, I've done my running)
Why should I go and hide
The only true thing left inside me
Hurry home

One left low left two who left high
They seem so hard to find
Three came twice took once the time
To search...
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for the whales
Restlessness is in our genes
Time won't wear it off
Born into this world with our eyes
wide open
Girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for the whales
I found angels
Beached outside your doors
Don't you set those lonely eyes on me
We're looking for the whales

Your face looked new against the town
You've come to lose some memories
Like you came to touch new grounds
But you want to lose
The weight of the wind
Rests hard on your shoulders
It's bringing you down
The one that you love
Will never be found
You speak into the falling rain
Words you'd lost, but found again
I see their snakey arms entwined
So clear and cruel
In your jealous mind
But you've got to lose
The weight of the wind
Hard on your shoulders
Getting you down
The one that you love

The Sun Never Shone That Day
(Paul Waaktaar / Lauren Savoy)
The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked away
I know that now, but I'm here to say:
Everybody walks away
Everybody's led astray
Breaking every plan to stay
It happens all the time
The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked I know
I see that now, but it's hard to show
Everybody's got to go
Everybody tells you so
Everybody wants to know
Why it happens all the time
I can't see the point of turning everything upside down
I can't see the point of greeting everything with a frown
I can't see the point of painting everything black or white
I can't see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt (oh doubt)
The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked away
I see that now, but I'm here to say
Everybody holds their own
Everybody lives alone
Everybody hogs the phone
It happens all the time
Everybody feels the strain
Everybody holds the pain
Everybody stays the same
It happens all the time
I can see the point of turning everything upside down
I can see the point of greeting everything with a frown
I can see the point of painting everything black or white
I can see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt
Everyone full of doubt
The sun never shone that day

I went down to the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Didn't know
What was waiting for me there
Nobody warned me
Nobody told me
My excuse is I wasn't prepared
I drank deep from the river
And sealed up my fate
I should have seen the trap, baby
Before it was too late
We go down
We go down
Go down is the only way out
Who is this fool
Who believed all the stories
I wish I could say
It's not me
You polluted my head
With all the things you said
I became what you wanted to see
All of these years
I've built up this hate
I had my chance coming
But now it's too late
We go down
We go down

Angle in the Snow
(Pal Waaktaar)
Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go¡­
And always will I be there
Shake worries from your hair
Hmm, yeah...
I'll be there
Always¡­
Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go¡­
You're my angel in the snow
You're my angel in the snow

We're going to go downtown
I hear this great new place has opened up
And when we get there
I don't know It's taken ages
Don't you know
How long how long
Will this go on
How long how long
Time drags on
How long I find I
can't go on much longer now
But the place in question's hard to find
Not a cab ride to the door
As you wonder in your doubtful mind
Is it really worth all that and more
We seem to be a little lost or something
I'm not really sure about the choice we're making
The toil it's taking on
How long how long
Will this go on
How long how long
The time drags on
How long
I find I can't go on much longer now
But the place in question's hard to find
Like an illness with no cure
And our heads are getting wearier
And our hearts are less than pure
Less than pure
How long I find
I can't go on much longer now
And the place in question's hard to find
Not a cab ride to the door
And our heads are getting wearier

Can you see me baby
Standing in the light
I feel your cat's eyes on me
Faster in the night
I move inside
Got those eyes
Something's burning baby
That's alright
You and I
Here tonight
Meet me on the other side
'Cause you can do me right
Take me where I cannot hide
'Cause you can do me right
Meet me on the other side
You don't know me girl
I'm faceless in the crowd
The things I could show you baby
Come on, come onto my cloud
I'm alive tonight
Something's falling baby
You and I
Out of the sky I can see it in your eyes
Meet me on the other side
'Cause you can do me right
Take me where I cannot hide
'Cause you can do me right
You need, baby, you're alive
'Cause you can do me right
Take me to the other side
'Cause you can do me right
Meet me on the other side

Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
You can't deny
There's something dark
Against the light
All i can say
It doesn't have to be this way
We'll be chasing our tails madly
See days pass like wildfire
Right from the start
I knew this world would break my
heart
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Break my heart
And dream myself alive
What can it mean
I'm drawing pictures of the sea
Right from the start
I knew this girl would break my heart
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive

It's the weight below us
And our fate before us
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Don't ever leave this way
I know it's getting harder, but hey
If your world should crumble, yeah
And the rain gets in
Running through your skin
Soaking you outside in
The rain ... see it falling
But I don't know how long it will be
Until the storm is over
I'll wait
I will
Like the years of silence
To the growing violence
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Don't ever leave me this way
Wait a little longer, yeah, stay
Through all the night I tumble, yeah
When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin
Losing it from within
See the rain ... it's falling
But I won't be leaving your side
Until all is over
I'll wait
I will
So many lifetimes you've been waiting for it
All through the good times
When you tried to ignore it
You hesitate
It's come too late
You hear the sound
Of when wheels engage
When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin

East of the Sun
(Pal Waaktaar)
Half of a letter
Tells half a story
The way I see it
It's half the worry
Where I came from
I forgot too soon...
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Money talks
And hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it
Enough to miss it
Where I'm going
I'll get there soon
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Ooh, never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up
But something's breaking
Here inside me
Deep and hollow
A sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain
Before the wound
East of the sun
And west of the moon

I took a ride in an automobile
Pushed my hands out against the wheel
Asked a girl if she needed a ride
She said, "Sure, babe, but I wanna drive"
Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river - she took me down
Cold river - she took my pride
River runs so deep
It runs so deep
It runs so deep
Had to stop on account of the storm
Seemed like years since I'd been warm
We drove all night till the tires blew
Got in the back and did what you do
Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she took my pride
On a sunny day
On a sunny day
(She took my pride)
All the money you made

Walking by strangers
Stranger than me
We talk of the future
Between you and me
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
It's hard to conceive it
All comes to an end
A joke when it's funny, well...
I laugh and pretend
We're fools to believe it
We're fools to try
To slow down this seemingly
Nonstop July

I find it hard to breathe
As life just eats away
At the faces that surround me
They look tired today
The lady at my table
Doesn't want me here
I just want to talk to her
But would she laugh at my accent
And make fun of me
Oh, it doesn't seem like this
Blue sky's here for me
There are no girls in here
As far as I can see
Only pin-up posters
Looking down at me
Watching papercups of coffee
Growing cold before my eyes
All the things I see
That make me realize
I'm in this big world without you
Nothing to my name
Oh, I never knew that
Blue sky meant such pain
I'm dying to be different
In the coffee shop
I've lived on borrowed strength
Now my supplies are cut
Though i'm older than my looks
And older than my years
I'm too young to take on
My deepest fears
Oh, I used to be confused
But now I just don't know
Since you left I've been watching
Blue skies come and go
Since you left I've been watching

It's the way we feel
Tonight
As if it's all unreal
All right
My love, won't you come back to
Our love, you know I'll react to
The blood that moves my body
Now covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
There's nowhere to go
Tonight
Lend some warmth to our cold
And lonely lives
Red stains on 'Eyes Of A Blue Dog'
My pains fade as the interiors fog
The blood that moves my body
Now colours the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
Not long ago
It hurt us so
A tremble through our lives
The love and care...
The way we were
Lost its way at nights
It's the way we feel
Tonight
Lend some warmth to our cold
And lonely lives
My love, won't you come back to
Our love, you know we'll react to
The blood that moved our bodies
Now covers the ground...

You stand in the doorway
A block up the street
Ringing the doorbell
There’s tapping of feet
High yellow hair
And a worn brown suit...
Enter, and break the news
Now tell me the story
I give it the time
No need to worry
Everything’s fine
I’ll take you away
From the name-calling scene
Sure... you can bring your magazine
Cold and windblown on the old bandstand
You and I walking hand in hand
A neon-glow shining
Down on us
Don’t wait up for us
Don’t wait up for us
Now tell me the story
I’ll give it the time
When you stop looking
Then you will find
I’ll take you away
From this name-calling scene
Just bring your magazine
Cold and windblown on the old bandstand
You and I walking hand in hand
A neon-glow shining
Down on us
Don’t wait up for us

Sleep, my love, sleep
Or look up at a sky
Returning from its deep
See the moon go down
Watch the sun come 'round
Tell me what you see
Sleep, my love, sleep
Yeah, look into a world
You can no longer reach
Time's a one-way track
There's no direction back
But when you're dreaming
Tell me what you see
Sleep, my love, sleep
Like you slept with me
When the world was a dream
That we believed
It was near
It was far
It answered to the stars
No one's ever been that close to me
What did you see

We're talking away
I don't know what I'm to say, I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay?
Take on me
(Take on me)
Take me on
(Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
So needless to say, I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me, it's no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me
(Take on me)
Take me on
(Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
Oh, the things that you say
Is it life or just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away, I'll be coming for you anyway
Take on me
(Take on me)
Take me on
(Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day
(Take on me, take on me)
(Take me on, take on me)
I'll be gone
(Take on me)
In a day
(Take me on)
Take on me
(Take on me)
Take on me
(Take me on)

Can't stop thinking 'bout it
It fills me with unease
Out there by the roadside something's buried
Under sycamore leaves
Wet grounds, late September
The foliage of the trees
I came upon this feeling that someone's lying
Covered by sycamore leaves
And I could never make it
And I could never see
And I could never break out

You can run through every forest
You can sail in the seven seas
You can climb the highest mountain
To try and dissolve these memories
In case you never knew it
You can’t undo it
You can jump off the edge of the world
Hide out in some monastery
Lose your mind in meditation
And never put your mind at ease
You think you’re running to it
But you are wading through it
A sunny mystery
Life is the dream that you wake up to
Dreams are the life from which you wake
Everybody makes the extra effort
Never knowing what to do
But you know the answer
Yeah, you know the score
It feels just like before
It’s a sunny mystery
That’s how it’s got to be
Because no one knows for sure
The outcome of this

Summer moved on
And the way it goes
You can't tag along
Honey moved out
And the way it went
Leaves no doubt
Moments will pass
In the morning light
I found out
Seasons can't last
And there's one thing
Left to ask
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
With nobody else around
Friendships move on
Until the day
You can't get along
Handshakes unfold
And the way it goes
No one knows
Moments will pass
In the morning light
I found out
Seasons can't last
So there's just one thing
Left to ask
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around
Seasons can't last
And there's just one thing
Left to ask
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

The cold has a voice
It talks to me
Stillborn, by choice
It airs no need to hold
Old man feels the cold...
Oh baby don't
'cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on...my love
We shall meet, I know
I know
Where joy should reign
These skies restrain
'Shadow your love...'
The voice trails off again
Old man feels the cold
Oh baby don't
'cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on...my love
You feel so weak, be strong
Stay on, stay on
We shall meet, I know
I know
I know, my love, I know
Feel the cold

Start the simulator
Controllers, listen up
What’s your status, Guidance?
Let’s take it from the top
Coming up on docking
The beginnings of a tear
Clearing the tower
We take the air
Start the simulator
Give your tanks a stir
The bright ejecta blanket
All is still a blur
Switch to Omni Bravo
B bus under volt
Roll right to zero
Steady as she goes
We’re going to fly so high
Into the rendered sky
We’re going to be all right
Inside the endless night
Start the simulator
I.S.O. valves are gray
EDS to manual
Translation looks okay
Save it for the splash-down
Things you want undone
You’re in command now
Your home away from home
You’re in control now

Must have been walking
Don't know this place
Somebody stopped talking
Is it written in my face
Thought I'd never leave you
Thought I'd never dare
But I watched you going under
That's a thought I could not bear
Five thousand miles I'm away from you
Drifting by the Spanish steps tonight
Guess you've got my number
Guess you've got my line
Guess you've got my number
Should I be on your mind
Late at night your footsteps
Barefoot on the floor
Tender eyes from sleeping
In the darkened corridor
I come up the stairway
My naked enemy
Comes stumbling towards me

Some sign of forgiveness
Some form of release
Is all that she asks for
Is all that she needs
She waits for the day when
She feels more at ease
Some time to be careful
Some time left in peace
Cold stars of the future
Burn bright in the past
These moments of solace
They won't last
They don't last
You're wasting the moment
Biding your time
No one got ahead
Standing in line
So something is over
Before it's begun
So close you can taste it
But now it is gone
Cold stars of the future
Burn bright in the past
These moments of solace
They don't last
They cannot last
You're hoping for solace
Well, just look around
Everyone here is

The soft rains of April are over
The soft rains of April are over, over
Anybody home now
I am on the phone now, please...
The soft rains of April are over
The ferry across the water to Dover, over
Anybody home now
I am on the phone, oh I'd like to go back
Is it raining back home
I'm so alone
Just got up today
And my thoughts are miles away
With you
Well, they gave me four years
Three more to go
Keep writing letters
Time's passing so slow
So soft rains of April are over
The soft rains of April are over

Your coat is hanging loosely
On your slender frame
There's many roads to leave by
But few come back again
I don't believe it
I believe it
Take a look around and see
What's stopping you is stopping me
One moonless night we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night
Pack up your things and go
Run down the road, don't take it slow
Pack up your things today and run away
Yeah, run away
You say it's useless crying
Never got you far
You claim there's none as lonely
Lonely as you are
I don't believe it
I believe it
Take a look around and see
What's breaking you is breaking me
One moonless night we'll make it right

When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were undecided
I believed
It's alright, tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
When you were filled with longing
I belonged
When you were weak from trying
I was strong
But it's alright, tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I
Childhood winters
Come to me
Whisper softly
So tenderly
I know, I walked 25 miles to hold you
Just to find you'd moved away
When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were almost blinded
I could see
But it's alright, tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I

The shadowside
You say I have
Is making everything
Go bad
You say I don’t
Care enough
For all the things that
I have got
But I do
And I will
I don’t want to see myself descend
Into the shadowside again
If you ever let me go again,
In the shadowside I’ll end
The shadowside
Where I go
I’m never where
I’m needed so
You say I don’t
Give enough
That I don’t care for
All I’ve got
But I do
And I will
I don’t want to see myself descend
Into the shadowside again
If you’re letting go of me again,

Butterfly, butterfly
Flying into the wind
You can be sure of it
That's no place to begin
Over thinking every little thing
Acknowledge the bell you can't unring
Tomorrow, you don't have to say what you're thinking
You don't have to mean what you say
Butterfly, butterfly
Flutter in to the skies
Butterfly, butterfly
Their molecular cries
Chrysalis dreams waiting on the fifth in-star
These stained glass wings could only take you so far
You don't have to say that it matters
You don't have to turn something in
Stay with it through thick and thin
Butterfly, begin
Butterfly, butterfly
Tomorrow, you don't have to mean what you say
Left without a reason to stay
Comes the last hurrah
Here's our last hurrah
Butterfly, butterfly
You can be sure of it

You don't wanna hang around
Said you were leaving town for the summer
At least till sundown
'Cause time ain't gonna grind you down
Ain't gonna waste your life
Chasing rainbows like some clown
But who's gonna come with you tonight
Who's gonna to tell you it's alright?
Everything changes over time
Just like wine
Time ain't gonna hold you up
Ain't going to make it stop
Long enough to ease your mind
Ain't gonna make it last forever
And you, what you gonna do?
Walk it solitary? So unnecessary
But it's alright, it's your birthright
Hey, hey everything's different down the line
Everything changes over time
Time ain't gonna make it worse
It's gonna make you start feeling better
Just like wine
We're gonna make it last forever
Hey you, what you gonna do?
Just be ordinary? So unnecessary
But it's all right, yes it's alright

Hey listen honey
Something you should know
This can't wait
I've been meaning to tell you
A long time ago
And today's that day
I'll put it straight
No, it just can't wait
Oh sure, it took a little time
I know that's true
But this business
Been preying on my mind
Since I met you
The thing is babe,
Between your mama and yourself
Forced to choose and without help
With a margin, you know it's true
The one I love
Well, it's eh...prpbably you
C'mon now, stay a little while
Before you go
This thing, it's been preying on my
mind
But even so
This I know
Between your mama and yourself
Forced to choose and without help
With a margin, you know it's true
The one I love
Well, it's eh...prpbably you
You've got to know
It's got to show

I used to be so sensible on my own
Now I'm so sensitive it's a joke
I'm getting by on decibels like a drug
And greet every brand
New day with a shrug
I'm barely hanging on
I used to be so comfortable in a suit
Almost presentable next to you
I used to be so confident in a crowd
Now I can't say my own name aloud
I'm barely hanging on
And now I guess you're
Wondering why
We never could see eye to eye
Oh but never mind
And now I guess it's hard to see
What has gotten into me
Oh but never mind

Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go:
And always will I be there
Shake worries from your hair
Hmm, yeah...
I'll be there
Always:
Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go:
You're my angel in the snow

Please don't hurt me
I have told you
All my love is all I've got
And tomorrow is the day
When I for your sake
I'm coming back
And you tell me
That I don't love you
Trying hard to make you jealous
Trying harder to make you stay
Days are longer
Night are crazy
It's so strange when you're away
And you tell me
That I don't love you
Because I love you
I will show you
All the faces my love can hide
So please
Let me come to you
And stay this time
And you tell me
That I don't love you
Oh you know

Come back, my darling one
I'm calling on you
The road ahead is long
And I must warn you
I wonder where did she go?
If I failed you
I tell you right now
All I want you to know, I love you
All I need is the time to show you
Come back, my fallen son
Don't let them fool you
'Cause when the day is done
They'll never move you
Lay down your senseless pride
(Got more than you)
Put out your mournful tones
I tell you right now
All I want you to know, I love you
All I need is the time to show you how I feel
Feel
Lay down your senseless pride
You traveled once too often, yeah
I tell you right now
All I want you to know, I love you
All I need is the time to show you, oh yeah
You know, I love you

The sunlight hits the corner of your eye
As it bounces off the morning sky
The summer in the 70s fly by
Daylight hits the corners of your mind
Steals the thought you thought no one could find
Close your eyes and it will rob you blind
Blind
Incidental memories collide
Sentimental reveries abide
Afternoon high
Daylight hits the corners of your mouth
Steals the words that filled you up with doubt
Open up and let them all fall out
Honey smoothes the wrinkles from you bed
Gone are the indentations of your head
Leaving just the frown upon your forehead
Incidental memories collide
Sentimental reveries abide
Afternoon high
Worry works a wrinkle over time
Open eyes and let it rob you blind
Incidental memories collide
People tell me you've been blinded by
On afternoon high
On afternoon high

And it will take a little bit of extra time
To make it shine, to make it shine
And it will take a little bit of extra care
To bring it where you think it's there
And there's no one else around
This is what I've found Anyone you see
Anyone you meet
Some one at your feet
Anyone could be that one
Anyone you know
Anywhere you go
Some one in a show
Could be that one
And it will take a little bit of all you've got
To get a shot, get a shot
And it will take a little bit of extra care
To bring it where you think it's there
And there's nowhere else to go
This is what I know
Anyone you see
Anyone you meet
Maybe down the street
Anyone could be that one
Everywhere you look
Pages of a book
All the years it took
Everything got you down
And it will take a little while to get back home
The road is long, the road is long
And it will take a little work to get it back
To mend the cracks, to bridge the gaps
Anyone you see
Could be the one
Anyone you meet
Could be that one
Some one at your feet
Could feel the same
Maybe you'd complete
Could share your name
Anywhere you look
Pages of a book
Everything she took
Never let it keep you down
Holding out for used
Broken up and bruised
Losable to lose
Anywhere you go
Anyone you know
Think it doesn't show
Everybody knows
Anyone you meet
Maybe down the street
(And it will take a little time to get back home)

So long ago
Was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
I know, yes I know
Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me
Took a walk down the street
Thru the heat whispered trees
I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear)
Somebody call out my name as it started to rain
Two spirits dancing so strange
Ah! bwakawa pouss, pouss
ah! bwakawa pouss, pouss
ah! bwakawa pouss, pouss
Dream, dream away
Magic in the air, was magic in the air?
I believe, yes I believe
More I cannot say, what more can I say?
On a river of sound
Thru the mirror go round, round
I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel)
Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold
The spirit dance was unfolding
Ah! bwakawa pouss, pouss

Come back my darling one
I'm calling on ya...
The road ahead is long
and I must warn ya
Take hold my little one
My minor key sonata
Show forth your looping grace
No one here could take your place
We'll find a way
to make it pay
to get around it
Come back my fallen sun
dont let 'em fool ya...
'cause when the day is done
they never moved ya
Lay down your sense of pride
Trampled once too often
Put out your mournful tones
No one here could take your place
We'll find a way
to do OK
to get around it
Come back my analogue
I hardly knew ya
The high end sloping off
a thing of beauty
Take hold my little ones
My minor key sonatas
Show forth your looping grace
No one here could take your place
We'll find a way
we'll make it pay
to do without it
say you'll find a way
to make it pay
to get around it
Show just what you know
Just let it go

I can't see me in this empty place
Just another lonely face
I can't see me here in outer space
It's so hard to leave a trace
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a
Minor Earth Major Sky
I can't see me in this lonely town
Not a friendly face around
Can you hear me when I speak out loud
Hear my voice above the crowd
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a
Minor Earth Major Sky
But I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a

I pace the length of my unmade room
In times of change
My bags are packed, guess I'm leaving
the womb
Into the rain
We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried
Toes in the sand, the seductive sway
Ooh...nothing better, babe
Across the bay--Sarasota Way
We held together
We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried, yeah
Into the rain:
The summer rain
So we walk down to Memorial Beach
Where things began
Honey days and nights without sleep
Lost in the sand
We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried, yeah
We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried, yeah

Maybe you were joking
When you said that you were
walking out on me
Maybe, maybe
Maybe I was joking
When I said that I was running out on you
Maybe, maybe
I could be wrong, so wrong
I could be wrong, so wrong
I could be wrong
I don't know, but it's been said
Decisions travel far from heart to head
Maybe, maybe
Maybe it was over
When you chucked me out the
Rover at full speed
Maybe, maybe oh baby
I could be wrong, so wrong
I could be wrong, so wrong

Halfway through the tour
We'll be somewhere else tomorrow
Halfway through the tour
We'll be somewhere else tomorrow
And you know
I can't wish for more
Than walking out that door
And make from home tomorrow
Halfway through the tour
Halfway through the tour
Houses set back from the road
Halfway through the tour
Across a dry expanse we go
And you know
I can't wish for more
Than walking out that door
And make from home tomorrow
Halfway through the door
But when the crowds engage
And brings you to a place
You will know
Everyone can be a part of
Everyone can be a part of it
Halfway through the tour
While there's money to be made
Halfway through the tour
From the public eye we fade
And you know
Across a dry expanse
We're flying by the seat of our pants
We'll be somewhere else tomorrow
Halfway through the tour
I can't do much more
Than make from home tomorrow

(So please
Please let me come to you
And stay this time)
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
There was a time
When I could kiss
Kiss you
Goodnight
It will come again
In your sleep
Go to sleep
Look for a dream
Soft as your skin
The night is here now
Hide out in your dreams
Sweetest love of mine
You can sleep
Go to sleep

Hold me tight
This is a lonely night
And I've hurt you baby
Because you are my light
Make me strong
Just like you make me weak
When your hands reach out for me
Even in your sleep
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours
Memories they keep coming through
The good ones hurt more
Than the bad ones do
The days were high
And the nights were deep
And I miss you baby
I miss you baby
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours
I'll soon be gone now
It won't be long now
Forever not
Forever not yours
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now

Half of a letter
Tells half a story
The way I see it
It's half the worry
Where I came from
I forgot too soon...
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Money talks
And hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it
Enough to miss it
Where I'm going
I'll get there soon
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Ooh, never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up
But something's breaking
Here inside me
Deep and hollow
A sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain
Before the wound
East of the sun

Early morning
Eight o'clock precise
I see the lonely August sun arise
Say you know
You will
Move me like you do
Out on the fields...
I'm waiting the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah
Ran the whole way
Down to the tracks
Through the doorway
Then a last look back
Say you know
You will
Save me like you do
Out on the fields...
I've waited the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah
I climbed all the stairways
To find the rooftop clear
Got the shotgun lying with me here
Say you know
You will
Move me like you do
Out on the fields...
You know how it feels, yeah
Early morning, early morning, yeah
Early morning

OH COME PITY ME, A POOR MAD SAILOR
STRANDED ON THIS LOVE
HERE I LIE LIKE DRIFTWOOD, HONEY
IS THIS WHAT I?VE BECOME
I GO HIGH OVER, DOWN UNDER
AT A LADY?S WILL, UNDER YOU
AT A LADY?S WILL
I?M DRIFTING STILL
I?M DRIFTING STILL
SO I ASK IN FADING INNOCENCE
AND ALL MY YOUTHFUL RAGE
WILL YOUR HANDS STILL TOUCH ME
WHEN MY FACE HAS FALLEN IN WITH AGE
I GO HIGH OVER, DOWN UNDER
AT A LADY?S WILL, UNDER YOU
HIGH OVER, DOWN UNDER
AT A LADY?S WILL, UNDER YOU
AT A LADY?S WILL
I?M DRIFTING STILL
I?M DRIFTING STILL
HIGH OVER, DOWN UNDER
AT A LADY?S WILL
HIGH OVER, DOWN UNDER

Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
You can't deny
There's something dark
Against the light
All i can say
It doesn't have to be this way
We'll be chasing our tails madly
See days pass like wildfire
Right from the start
I knew this world would break my
heart
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Break my heart
And dream myself alive
What can it mean
I'm drawing pictures of the sea
Right from the start
I knew this girl would break my heart
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive

I will never let you down
I will always be around
In the time we are here
We'll see love disappear
Don't ask how
Don't ask why
Just fly, dragonfly
Just fly, dragonfly
I will never bring you down
I will always stick around
I will heat you when you're cold
In the time we have left
We'll raise eyes to the sky
Don't ask how
Don't ask why
Just fly, dragonfly
Just fly, dragonfly
Don't ask how
Don't ask why
Just fly, dragonfly

Woooo
Dot the I
Stretch your lips and smile
Let the world run by
Be the fool
Tomorrow morning's here
And I'm all nonsense dear
I see, I know, I hear you say
Come near, come close, come free
Love happened to happen to me
Dot the I
Trust your kite to fly
I could lend you mine
Spot the gag
Tick it, tock it, light a fag
Never say goodbye
I see, I know, I hear you say
Come near, come close, come free
Love happened to happen to me
I see, I know, I hear you say
Come near, come close, come free
Love happened to happen to me
Woooo
I see, I know, I hear you say
Come near, come close, come free
Love happened to happen to me
I see, I know, I hear you say
Come near, come close, come free
Love happened to happen to me
Dot the I
Count to three and sigh

Here's a stain on the ottaman
Here's a slug in the plasterwall
Here's a glass with a fingerprint
Left out in the entrance hall
Left out in the hallway...
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Here's a room showing signs of struggle
Here's a tear in the victim's shirt
Here's a plate with a chalky substance
Like a footprint in the dirt
Left out in the driveway...
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
I wouldn't put it past the neighbour
I wouldn't put it past the maid
I wouldn't put it past the boyfriend
Yeah, he'd do it in a jealous rage
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
The boyfriend wont sink
Case closed on silver shore
Can't make it stick
Case closed on silver shore

There's nothing you can say
To make me change my mind
It happens all the time
Just let the plot unwind
As we look back and see
Our yesterdays entwine
The beauty and the truth
The summers of our youth
And you can go there anytime
The movies on your mind
And you can see it clearly
Where we overstepped the line
What are you gonna do when lights go out
What are you gonna think it's all about
What are you gonna do when time is up
What are you gonna do to make it change the way you feel?
Our life's a precious gift
You've felt it once or twice
How everything comes once
But once a million times
But you can find it anywhere
You know I speak the truth
I wish there was a way back to
The summers of our youth
What are you gonna do when time is up
What are you gonna do to make it stop
What are you gonna do when lights go out
What are you gonna think it's all..... think it's all about

Andy was the company man
Responsible for signing the band
Songs came out of our mouths
And into his hands
Oh yeah
Legal help, yes we had plenty
Bank-accounts are easy to empty
Everybody's trying to help
Everyone is so friendly
Oh yeah
And we all come down
Don't make a sound as we hit the ground
Yes we all fall down
Don't make a sound as we hit the ground
Give us something easy to sing to
Give us something simple to cling to
Something we can all understand
Said the company man
Oh yeah
We sing
And we all fall down
Don't make a sound as we hit the ground
Yes we all fall down
Don't make a sound as we hit the ground
Yes we all fall down
Don't make a sound as we hit the ground
May we all fall down

Help me, I need your love, don't walk away
The dark scares me so, we're nothing apart
Let's stay friends forever, forever
Here I stand and face the rain
I know that nothing's gonna be the same again
I fear for what tomorrow brings
Trust me for who I am, place all your faith
Into these hands, I got nothing to say
But let's stay friends forever, forever
Here I stand and face the rain
I know that nothing's gonna be the same again
I fear for what tomorrow brings
Here I stand and face the rain
I know that nothing's gonna be the same again
I fear for what tomorrow brings
Here I stand and face the rain
Knowing nothing's gonna be the same again
Here I stand and face the rain

Heaven's not for saints
You only have one cup
Now you've filled it up
Let it go, babe - just let it go
Dimlit path ahead
The road is wide
But your eyes are red
Let it go, babe - just let it go
Child, my brother
My brother look around you
The night is calling you
Close to the edge
Who knows the distance
The distance when light fades away
The river knows the way
The father is your son
Life has just begun
Let it go, babe - just let it go
Child, my brother
My brother look around you
The night is calling you
Close to the edge
Who knows the distance
The distance when light fades away
Just let it go...

You're back again
You roam the streets
And crack again
You're back again
You're travel-worn
Standing here in the town
Where you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone
...Cold as stone - Yeah
You're not your own
You feel a chill
Go through your bones
You're not your own
There's something wrong
You call the doctor on a phone
He's not at home
So you leave a message
After the tone -
"I'm cold as stone"
Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire red falls on you below
Cold as stone
Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire reds fall on you below
You're back again
You send a curse out
In to the night
You're back again
You're travel-worn
Standing here
In the town you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone
...Cold as stone

You say you want some fun
You're not the only one
Not the only one
And you say you wanna run
You're not the only one
Not the only one
You will never get over me
I'll never got under you
Whenever our voices speak
It's never our minds that meet
You say you want some
You're not the only one
Not the only one
And you, you say you've come undone
You're not the only one
Not the only one
You will never get over me
I'll never got under you
Whenever our voices speak
It's never our minds that meet

Take a look and see
What's become of me
Remember how it used to be
People that we'd meet
Were falling at your feet
You didn't even see it
Well, time marches on ahead, enough said
There's only one way through it
Time marches on ahead, one day we'll see it
How there's a fine blue line
Running through it
We read each other's books
We gave each other looks
Like we couldn't trust ourselves
And we knew it
So tell me where you've been
And I'll show you were you're going
You can shout, you can scream
Your way through it
Well, time rushes on ahead, enough said
That's just the way we blew it
Time marches on ahead, one day you'll see it
Love is a fine blue line
Time races on ahead, enough said
That's just the way we blew it
Well, time marches on ahead, one day you'll see it
Love is a fine blue line
Running through it

You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Pretend you can't see yourself
Could have been better
Could have been worse
You could have been yourself
Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall
Now you're out climbing
Taking it all
You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Suffer that moment's pain
Could have done better
Could have done worse
Lost in your love for more
Now you're out climbing
And you should know
You'll end up crying
Wherever you may go
Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall
Now you're out climbing
Climbing to fall
You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Something is lost from the start
Could have been better
Could have been worse

You know the way
You've been before
I've seen the signs
Outside your door
You set the rules
The bitter days
Can't be ignored
It's just the same
Just like before
You wanted more
I love the sun
I love the rain
You gave it up
But all in vain
I love the way
It was before
So bittersweet
To be adored
We had it all
You let it go
You wanted more
But in the end
What is a friend
If not some one
To help pretend
Remember me
You know my name
I'm still the same
But not for you
That's not enough
You wanted more
I love the sun
I love the rain
You gave it up
But all in vain
You couldn't change
You know the score
So bittersweet
To be adored
We had it all
You gave it up
You wanted more
But in the end
What is a friend...
You loved the way
It used to be
The way you are
You and me
You came too late
You left too soon
Just like the rings
Around the moon
We had it all
You let it go
You wanted more
We had it all
You gave it up

You are the one who has done me
Guess you knew from the start
I call again, but there's no one in
Don't know where, with whom you've
been
But I do
Love you
Anyway you want me to
You are the one...now the state I'm in!
Catching you was so hard
I fought for you, did you let me win!?
Don't even care, don't care
Where I've been
But I do
Love you
Anyway you want me to
I've done all I can do
All the letters...I've sent through
Put my life in the palms of your hands
Maybe now you can see
That it's got to be me
But if you leave me
I'll understand, yeah
If you leave me, I'll understand
You are the one who has done me
Guess you knew from the start
I call your friends, but there's no one
Catching you is so hard

Give things best forgiven
Solve things best resolved
Why wait untill tomorrow ?
Get things best forgotten
Move things best removed
Get it done tomorrow
Christmas timeblows my mind
All the lights
Outta sight - outta sight !
Watergun for Tommy
Power tools for Ma
Everybody's waiting
What to get for Sandy
Daddy gets a tie
Everybody's happy - for a while...
Christmas time blows my mind
All the lights
Outta sight - outta sight !
What you wanna say, what you wanna do,
What you wanna get...
... at Christmas time
What you wanna say, what you wanna do,
What you wanna get...
... at Christmas time
What you wanna say, what you wanna do,
What you wanna get...
... at Christmas time
What you wanna say, what you wanna do,
What you wanna get...
... Wow !!
at Christmas time
Give things best forgiven
Get things best forgotten
Everybody's waiting
What to get for Sandy
Daddy gets a tie
Everybody's happy - for a while...
Christmas time (blows my mind)
(Give things best forgiven, get things best forgotten)
Christmas time (blows my mind)
(Give things best forgiven, get things best forgotten )
Christmas time (blows my mind)
(Give things best forgiven, get things best forgotten )
Christmas time (blows my mind)

There's a big, black picture and it's hanging on the wall
With stars and all the planets, the milky way and all
And in the left hand corner, perhaps a small white dwarf
Ready to explode, implode I really can't recall
But it's out there, and I'm down here
And so far from it all
Everything's expanding in a constant state of change
Everything's demanding in a constant state of pain
You radiate away, your last remaining heat
Your atmosphere has blown away when you admit defeat
But it's out there
(Don't know where we are)
And I'm down here
(Don't know why we are)
And so far from it all
Your time, your grace, your story in place, your life-span erased
There's a big, black picture and it's hanging off your wall
The stars and all the planets, the milky way and all
And in the left hand corner, perhaps a small white dwarf
Ready to explode, implode I really can't recall
But it's out there
(Don't know where we are)
And I'm down here
(Don't know why we are)
And so far from it all
But it's out here
(Don't know where we are)
Down there
(Don't know why we are)

Stories are painted
In lines on your face
Misunderstandings
And little mistakes
A chance to start over
Is all that it takes
You know if you do
Your life is a canvas
The colors are you
Follow me out
Follow me 'round
Let's make the road up as we go along
Just as we planned
You want to believe it
You know that it's true
Your life is a canvas
The colors are you
You cannot erase them
The words that were said
Just paint them over
Inside of your head
All that is needed
You know you must make
One leap of faith
Everything else will fall into place
Follow me out
Follow me 'round
Let's make it up and go back
To where it began
All that is needed
Is one leap of faith
Everything else will fall into place
Anywhere you'll ever go
Everyone you'll ever know
You may never find it
Everyone you'll ever see
Anyone you choose to be
How you look will decide
How you look will decide what you see
Follow the moon
Follow the sun
Let's make a deal this time
To stay with the plan
All that is needed is one leap of faith
Everything else will fall into place
Everything else will fall into place
Stories are painted

Empty glass
Gets another round
Squeaky chair
Makes another sound
There is a gentle breeze
Playing in your hair
Come take a bow
While you’re still
All there
It’s what it is
It’s what it was
It’s what it will be here
After us
There is no memory
There’s no recall
No recollections
At all
Your dark glasses
Sliding down your nose
Now bring these proceedings
To a close
It’s what there is
It’s what there was
It’s what will be here
After us
Your dark glasses
Sliding down your nose
Now bring these proceedings
To a close
You can make it all worthwhile
You can lend yourself some style
You can give them all the reasons
Al the facts that you have seasoned
You can hear them hoot and holler
As you come across a scholar
You can set your name in lights

Waiting for her
That's all I ever do
Waiting for her
So why didn't I
Take the measures justified
Our love has always been the same
She comes, then goes away again
Oh yeah
She used to say
We never have the breaks we should've had
Coming our way
But why didn't I take that time and put it right
Our love has always been the same
She leaves me standing out in the rain -
Oh yeah
Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of
Oh yeah
I'm telling you
And when she's sleeping by my side
Eyes closed, all knowledge trapped inside
- Oh yeah
So why didn't I
Take the measures justified
Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of :
Oh yeah

Her skin is like velvet
Her face cut from stone
Her eyes when she's smiling
Will never reach home
But hear how she sings
Her touch would be tender
Her lips would be warm
But when we're together
I'm always alone
But hear how she sings
But hear how she sings
Hear how she sings
Her skin is like velvet
So I went to her home
Her place like a palace
With things you can't own
Her skin is like velvet
And hear how she sings

Turn the lights on the night is too long
Keep yourself warm I'm coming home
I cannot help you, you yourself must see
Decide now on what you want to be
Turn the lights down
The lights are too strong
When you're down and out just hold on
Realize that nothing lasts long
We must believe in things we cannot see
Everything's alright with me
Turn the lights down
The lights are too strong
I'm coming home
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
I just want to sleep for a while
Turn around the night is still young
Keep your lights on
I'm coming home
You must decide now where you want to be
You're the one who said to me
Realize that nothing lasts long
I'm coming home
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
So easy to look at the (??)
Hard to (??) when you care
Impossible now to go back to where we began
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
I just want to sleep by your side

He likes to have the morning paper's
Crossword solved
Words go up words come down
Forwards backwards twisted round
He grabs a pile of letters from a small
suitcase
Disappears into an office
It's another working day
And his thoughts are full of
strangers
Corridors of naked lights
And his mind once full of reason
Now there's more than meets the
Oh, a stranger's face he carries with
He likes a bit of reading on the subway
home
A distant radio whistling tunes that
nobody knows
At home a house awaits him, He
unlocks the door
Thinking once there was a sea here
But there never was a door
And his thoughts are full of
strangers
And his eyes to numb to see
And nothing that he knows of
And nowhere where he's been
Was ever quite like this
And his thoughts...
And at heart
He's full of strangers
Dodging on his train of thought

Donna found us in her slow and dreamy way
I can't hear a word the waiter says
She's looking older now...
The color of her hair
She walks into the room and pleased to find me there
Me I'm touchy - Touchy you
Me I'm touchy
And you know what to do
Me I'm touchy
Touchy, touchy you
Me I'm touchy and you know what to do
Both of us together in a room by ourselves
I sneeze to look around, but there's no escape
What can I do, what can I say
She's waiting for this moment to explain itself
Me I'm touchy - Touchy you
Me I'm touchy
And you know what to do
Me I'm touchy
Touchy, touchy you
Touching love is the best I can do
Hey, this time you've gone too far
You know how touchy we are
Donna found me in her slow and dreamy way
Now she reads me what the papers say
The way she laughs at what I do

You know I always had the strength to fight
But I got tired of the wars at night
Thinking they would end if I gave in
But I wasn't strong enough
..To let you win
..To let you win
..Let you win
I knew the fight but I didn't know the cost
And how to stop the wheels when they're in spin
I thought you couldn't love a man who'd lost
No, I wasn't strong enough
..To let you win
..Let you win
It used to scare me to wake up wondering
If I'd forgotten what I was fighting for
You know that you said that you were weak and I was strong
Well, I wasn't strong enough
..To let you win
..To let you win
..Let you win
..To let you win
You know I always had the strength to fight
But I got tired of the wars at night
Thinking they would end if I gave in
But I wasn't strong enough
..To let you win

The sun brought me
The moon caught me
The wind fought me
The rain got me
The road sent me
For years bent me
The stars overwhelmed me
Time and again
But now I can't see the stars
The star is a thing I can't see
And now I don't feel the same
To feel is a thing I can't be
Earth crushed me
Fame brushed me
The streets hushed me
As life touched me
Time placed me
Events dazed me
Love saved me
Now and again
But now there can be no love
Love is a thing I can't be
And there can be no trust
Trust is a thing I can't see
But now there can be no love
Love is a thing that can't be
Now I can't be so strong
Strong is a thing I can't be
Time and again
Time and again

I thought that it was you
The things you saw me do
They were true
Little did I know
You found me in your joy
And there was I, a little boy
My shadows they're not new
My soul's split in two
Lord, I thought that it was you
This Christmas snow that falls
Gives silence to us all, amen, amen
You know my deepest sin
You've seen me deep within
So fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
There's a river and you know
There's a place we used to go
That's where I throw our ashes now
I must have walked into a cave
Among these things that you must save
And there I touched the grave
You know my deepest sin
You've seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
You know my deepest sin
You've seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
Sometimes I felt so sure
When I opened up your doors
That there'd been no one there before
You know my deepest sin
You've seen me deep within
But fly, fly higher from it
Just look into my eyes
You know my deepest sin
You've seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin

This alone is love
No small thing
This alone is love
That my love brings
And all of us
Who are travelling by trap-doors
Our souls are a myriad of wars
And I'm losing everyone
It will make my last breath pass out at dawn
It will make my body dissolve out in the blue

Don't know how it got away from me
Don't know how I let things go, you see
Don't know why it took a sudden turn
Didn't seem to be a big concern
And everything is all too much
Hot and bothered, you're cool to the touch
And everyone is worlds apart
It must have been this way from the start
When there's nothing here to save the day
Then we have to say
There's a reason for it
When there's nothing left for us to do
You're left without a clue
There's a reason for it
Don't know how it got away from me
Don't know how I let things go, you see
Don't know why it took a sudden turn
Didn't seem to be a big concern
And everyone is all too well
All well-adjusted people
Can't you tell?
And everything is all too fast
Just add water Nothing's built to last
When your colleagues can't recall your name
Time and time again
There's a reason for it
When your name's the butt of every joke
Just about to croak T
here's a reason for it
And everyone is worlds apart
It must have been this way from the start
When there's nothing here to save the day
Then we have to say
There's a reason for it
When there's nothing left for us to do
You're left without a clue
There's a reason for it
There's a reason for it
There's a reason for it

Sometimes the way we talk isn't all that good
We can't change though we know we should
Baby, these fights we have aren't always fair
Was this problem always there
If I could, I'd change, I swear

You say the world's an eventful place
You give me news
I don't want to know
You say that I should care
That I should speak my mind
Oh, but how can I speak of the world
Rushing by
With a lump in my throat
And tears in my eyes
Oh, have we come to the point of no turning back
Or is it still time to get into
The swing of things
Let us walk through this windless city
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Oh, "sleep..." you wrote "sleep, my dear"
In a letter somewhere
Oh, but how can I sleep with your
voice in my head
With an ocean between us
And room in my bed
Oh, have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
Or is it still time to get into
The swing of things
Oh, when she glows in the dark
And I'm weak by the sight
Of this breathtaking beauty
In which I can hide
Oh, there's a worldful out there
Of people I fear
But given time I'll get into
The swing of things
Yes, when she glows in the dark and
I'm struck by the sight
I know that I'll need this for the rest of my life
What have I done
What lies I have told
I've played games with the ones that
rescued my soul
Oh, have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
Or is it still time to get into

The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked away
I know that now, but I'm here to say:
Everybody walks away
Everybody's led astray
Breaking every plan to stay
It happens all the time
The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked I know
I see that now, but it's hard to show
Everybody's got to go
Everybody tells you so
Everybody wants to know
Why it happens all the time
I can't see the point of turning everything upside down
I can't see the point of greeting everything with a frown
I can't see the point of painting everything black or white
I can't see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt (oh doubt)
The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey
I never should've walked away
I see that now, but I'm here to say
Everybody holds their own
Everybody lives alone
Everybody hogs the phone
It happens all the time
Everybody feels the strain
Everybody holds the pain
Everybody stays the same
It happens all the time
I can see the point of turning everything upside down
I can see the point of greeting everything with a frown
I can see the point of painting everything black or white
I can see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt
Everyone full of doubt

The Sun Always Shines On TV lyrics
Touch me
How can it be
Believe me
The sun always shines on T.V
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
To me.....
I Reached inside myself
And found nothing there
To ease the pressure of
My ever worrying mind oh oh oh oh ho
All my powers waste away
I fear the crazed and lonely looks
The mirror's sending me
These Days oh oh oh oh ho
Touch me
How can it be
Believe me
The sun always shines on TV
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
Please don't ask me to defend
The shamefull lowlands
Of the way I'm drifting
Gloomily through time oh oh oh oh ho
Touch me
I reached inside myself today
Thinking there's got to be some way
To keep my troubles distant
Touch me
How can it be
Believe me
The sun always shines on TV
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
Givel all your love to me

There's nothing you can say
To make me change my mind
It happens all the time
Just let the plot unwind
As we look back and see
Our yesterdays entwine
The beauty and the truth
The summers of our youth
And you can go there anytime
The movie's on your mind
And you can see it clearly
Where we overstepped the line
What you gonna do when lights go out
What you gonna think it's all about
What you gonna do when time is up
What you gonna do to make it change the way you feel?
Our life's a precious gift
You've felt it once or twice
How everything comes once
But once a million times
But you can find it anywhere
You know I speak the truth
I wish there was a way back to
The summers of our youth
What you gonna do when time is up
What you gonna do to make it stop
What you gonna do when lights go out

Once a girl
In mommy's world
Laughing, rhyming, singing songs
In her newly learned tongue
Now a girl
In this world
Married to a stranger's name
Writing to him all the same
Oh but where can she go
If she's going?
Alone
Where can she go
If she's going alone?
Where can she go to avoid
The love goodbye?
All the same
Letters answer letters
In a round about way
"Sweet darling" they commence,
But she no longer feels that way
Oh there's not a soul
In the streets below
Sitting by the window,
Clinging to the phone
Dialing endless numbers
No reply
Love goodbye.
Where can she go
If she's going?
Alone
Where can she go
If she's going?
Where can she go if she's going alone?
She's going alone

Hey driver, where we're going?
I swear my nerves are showing
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people, I'm the one they blame
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness, let it never fade away
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Ah, ah, the living daylights
All right, hold on tight now
It's down, down to the wire
Set your hopes way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand changes, everything's the same
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness, let it never fade away
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people, I'm the one they frame
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Ah, ah, the living daylights
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die

Was that somebody screaming...
It wasn't me for sure
I lift my head up from uneasy
pillows
Put my feet on the floor
Cut my wrist on a bad thought
And head for the door
Outside on the pavement
The dark makes no noise
I can feel the sweat on my lips
Leaking into my mouth
I'm heading out for the steep hills
They're leaving me no choice
And see...as our lives are in the making
We believe through the lies and the hating
That love goes free
For want of an option
I run the wind 'round
I dream pictures of houses burning
Never knowing nothing else to do
With death comes the morning
Unannounced and new
Was it too much to ask for
To pull a little weight...
They forgive anything but greatness
These are scoundrel days
And I'm close to calling out their names
As pride hits my face
See...as our lives are in the making
We believe through their lies and the hating
That love goes free through
scoundrel days
I reach the edge of town
I've got blood in my hair
Their hands touch my body
From everywhere
But I know that I've made it
As I run into the air
And see...as our lives are in the making
We believe through the lies and the hating
That love goes free

You search your mind
That’s what it’s there for
Check all the whys’
And all the wherefores’
In your mind
You’re tall and brave
Riding the crest
Of a high and beautiful wave
You make your movements known
And where you want to be
And everybody knows
That’s how it’s got to be
In the sheltered morning sun
In the sheltered morning sun
Internally
You make your own rules
You’ll have excuses
The ones that you choose
In the end
You deem unsafe;
Riding the crest
Of a high and beautiful wave
You make your movements known...
There comes a time
You don’t even know what’s missing
Some sugar to make the pill go down
You need a line
A push in the right direction
The sugar that makes the pill go down
True
True to form
True to pre-existing norms
Truly wasted
At a rave
Riding the crest

Don’t change me
I’m gonna break if you try
Don’t change you
You know the tears
I’m gonna cry
And I sure will
Miss us when we’re gone
You’re the real meaning of the sun
It shows you off to everyone
You’re the real meaning of the sun
It shows you off to everyone
The real meaning
I want the real meaning
Don’t fix me
It breaks my heart
To see you try
Don’t fix you
And leave me for
Some other guy
And I sure will
Miss us when we’re done
You’re the real meaning of the sun
It shows you off to everyone
You’re the real meaning of the sun
It shows you off to everyone
When I’m thinking about you fondly
Then I’m thinking about the only
Real meaning of the sun
You’re the real meaning of the sun
It shows you off to everyone
You’re the real meaning of the stars
They guide me to the places you are
The real meaning

Presenting Lily Mars
Tap dancer, a soon-to-be star
She'll beat your heart so fast
Spotlight's on Lily tonight
She's on Channel One's late-night show
She's watching people come and go
Producer says "You've got it made, girl"
And when she's lying sleepless in his arms
The frost paints roses on poor Lily's window pane
Presenting Lily's mum
She still lives on in Lily's mind
Stopped ageing years ago
Now she's gone, but left her dreams in Lily's eyes
Lily's wondering if mummy's watching her tonight
"Good morning!" says father Mars
Presenting a salesman's cheerful face
His mouth is never shut!
As he strides from door to door to door
Watch his face as he puts his foot in my door
Presenting Lily Mars
She's sensing moons and stars
The pills that Doc subscribed
Will keep the sleepless, dreamless nights away
Oh poor Lily, now you're sleeping day by day
By day by day by day by day

Hey, beautiful farm on the top of the hill
Whenever I pass by, I'm thinking I will
Find someone like you, goodbye avenue
And then I'll be yearning for this too
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky
Stop calling her restless, she moves in the sun
Gets out of the bed past noon, closer to one
I follow her mind, I follow her blind
She leaves and I'm two steps behind
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall
Trip is to fall
She changes how she feels about things, that's okay
It works for me, I think I like it that way
Nothing is true, something is false
Address the child as a whole
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high

Father
My wings are clipped
See the steps that made me trip
Now I'm so lonely
Mother
Time's frozen flame
Seem to linger in the rain
Holding me only
Like a river I'm flowing
And there's no way of knowing
If I'm coming or going
I need something to chain me down
But it don't matter
My eyes have seen...
For better
Out of blue comes green
Mother
I have gone wrong
Work my fingers to the bone
All I've been doing
Father
Proud that I am
To be born into such hands
Your love so renewing
And I know I can lose it
Part of life...you can't choose it
As I touched the horizon
It just felt like I'd die soon
Don't matter
My eyes have seen
For better

One time to know that it's real
One time to know how it feels
That's all
One call - your voice on the phone
One place - a moment alone
That's all
What do you see?
What do you know?
What are the signs?
What do I do?
Just follow your lifelines through
What do you hate?
What do I do?
What do you say?
Don't throw your lifelines away
Don't throw your lifelines away
One time - just once in my life
One time- to know it can happen twice
One shot of a clear blue sky
One look - I see no reasons why you can't
One chance to be back
To the point where everything starts
Once chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
Once I make us believe it's true
What do we see?
Where do we go?
What are the signs?
How do we grow?
By letting your lifelines show
What if we do? What up to now?
What do you say?
How do I know?
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go

Oranges on apple trees
Birds that mate with bumblebees
Oranges on apple trees
Water comes and water goes
Where it ends up no one really knows
Water rises, water falls
Where it comes from no one knows for sure
It seeps from every pore
We have seen the rain before
Not like this - It's flooding every shore
People come and people go
I can hear their laughter through the door
But no one's keeping score
Oranges on apple trees
Birds that mate with bumblebees
One big happy family
Endless possibilities
(yeah and more)
Oranges and apple trees
I see your face in front of me
Can't believe what no one else could see
I feel it deep inside of me
Everything we love shall be released
And everyone will see
Oranges on apple trees (for sure)
I used to be the only one
Not now since you've come
You and I have seen the signs
That's why the wind died
The wind died
That's why Oranges on apple trees
Birds that mate with bumblebees
Endless possibilities (now)
Oranges on apple trees
All the things that we can see
Multi-gender wannabes
Oranges on apple trees
Birds that mate with bumblebees
One big happy family
Endless possibilities (yeah yeah yeah)

Dawn awaits a sleepless, English town
Of coloured gray
Here I roam the streets without you
As summer fades away
...down in the city at nights
The cold wind blows
Wherever you may be right now
It must be getting late
You're probably asleep already
I am wide awake
...down in the city at nights
"Don't be lonely"
so you've told me
But don't you worry now
Loneliness can be ignored
And time has shown me how
... down in the city at nights
I'm missing you so much
Down in the city

The lights change on the hill
The air seems strangely still
Everyone’s asleep
The floorboards creak at dawn
As you walk out on the lawn
The grass is wet beneath
You think it rather strange
You think it rather weird
It’s fair to say that
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
The phone is off the hook
As you sink into a book
You don’t know where you are
From the world; detached
Unto a girl you latched
It never got too far
And everybody talks
And everybody stares
It’s safe to say that
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
And everybody’s dawn
And everybody cares
You knew your day to shine
Would come without you here
Come without you here...
Nothing was keeping you here

Walking by strangers
Stranger than me
We talk of the future
Between you and me
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
It's hard to conceive it
All comes to an end
A joke when it's funny, well...
I laugh and pretend
We're fools to believe it
We're fools to try
To slow down this seemingly

Come the winter
Falling snow
I could swear I'll make this promise hold
I won't give you shadows
Never never
I won't give you shadows
See me standing on a bridge in white
I watch the water spinning scenes by ice
Now I swear to make these words sound right
I won't give you shadows
Never never
I won't give you shadows
And my love is all that matters
And my love is all I see
Hold me
Give all your love
Touch me
Give all your love to me
Hold me
Give all your love
Touch me
Give all your love to me
I won't give you shadows
Never Never
Won't give you shadows
Never never
Won't give you shadows
Never Never
I won't give you shadows

Walked around no one around
You were the one who taught me
better
This old town brings me down
You were the one who told me
You've got to
Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Gonna move to Memphis and follow you
Trace that highway
Down to your doorway
Gonna move to Memphis and be with you
On the day you walked away
I was the one who said
You'd better stick around stay in town
You were the one who told me
You've got to
Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Chase the shadow that follows you
Trace that highway
Down to your doorway
Gonna move to Memphis
And be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
Gonna move to Memphis
Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Move to Memphis to be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you

Wrong
You never got it wrong
You always got it right
But now some time has passed;
You’re ever so slightly off
Thing you could do asleep
In a not too distant past,
Are trying your patience
Harder now
And though
Everything moves along
You hope the rumour’s wrong
That Mother Nature
Goes to heaven
Right
You never got it wrong
It always got away
When you had it nailed
It was ever so slightly off
Sending you somewhere else
Than where you had to be
Making it that much
Harder now
And though
You’re struggling to get on track
It pales somewhat to the fact
That Mother Nature goes to heaven
And there will be no sadder day
When all the birds

Monday mourning
Tears are falling down like fluid pain
And it's a long, lost Monday morning
The telling words I like to learn
Are dying on your lips
As the morning through my fingers slips
Ooo-oooh, a-haaaaaa
I find myself in times like this
quite amazed
how eager everything is to go wrong
around me
Monday mourning
tries to wound me
Eyes look hurt again
For have I asked and will never ask again

With all our goals and destinations...
Everything must be this way
Vague are hopes
That try our patience
Listen now to what I say
Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness
Here with me
All our trials and tribulations...
Will it ever make much sense
All these years
They disappear
They leave me here
Without defense
Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness

Mary cries out: "for the love of God"
As she's walking out of the laundromat
Down the street and it's the short way home
Feeling special cause she's so alone
But we know:
(The world's full of lonely people)
And it shows
(The world's full of lonely people)
She shrugs her coat off and unlocks the door
Eats her dinner on the kitchen floor
Writes a poem and turns the radio on
Every singer sings the same old song
And it goes:
(The world's full of lonely people)
And it shows
(The world's full of lonely people)
But when we she wanted me to go
She just had to let it show
To bring me down if she wanted me to leave
She just wore it on her sleeve
But at least, I was around
But when we she wanted me to go
She just had to let it show
To bring me down if she wanted me to leave
She just wore it on her sleeve
At least, I was around
Mary Ellen makes the moment count
As she's looking through old photographs
Pictures taken from an early age
Faces look back at her from the page
And they say
(The world's full of lonely people)
It's ok
(The world's full of lonely people)
It's ok
(The world's full of lonely people)
But when we she wanted me to go
She just had to let it show
To bring me down if she wanted me to leave
She just wore it on her sleeve
But at least, I was around
I was around
I was around
I was around

We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
I hear myself say,
"My boat's leaving now"
...so we shake hands and cry
Now I must wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
You know
I don't want to cry again
Don't want to cry again
I don't want to say goodbye
Don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna run away
I don't want to race this pain
I'll never see your face again
Oh but how
How can you say
That I didn't try...
You see things in the depths of my eyes
That my love's run dry
No...
We leave to their goodbyes
I've come to depend on the look in
their eyes
My blood's sweet for pain
The wind and the rain bring back
words of a song
And they say wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
You know
I don't want to fall again
I don't wanna know this pain
I don't want another friend
I don't wanna try again
Don't want to see you hurt
Don't let me see you hurt
I don't wanna cry again
I'll never see your face again
How can you say
That I didn't try
You know I did
You see things
in the depths of my eyes
That my love's run dry
(I don't wanna cry again...)
...So I read to myself
A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons
On the front page
A black and white picture of

I watch my love, she's sleeping
The air around her deepened
Tomorrow she will smile again
Tomorrow she'll get wild again
My love
And the moon
Take your time
Make it soon
I didn't mean to hurt you
It's what I use the words to
Every time we lose our way
I get so many things to say
My love
And the moon
Take your time
Make it soon
I see you and I hear you call
But sometimes when I lost it all
I go out of my mind
To see what I can find, I can find
[Incomprehensible]
I watch my love, she's sleeping
The air around her deepened
Tomorrow she will smile again
Tomorrow she'll get wild again

My breath was coming fast
And as i make a start
You turn to go
oh, oh
I'll do what you want me to
I'll cry at the thought of the loss of a
heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason enough
My morals are changing fast
I told you it wouldn't last
You turn and go
oh, oh
I'll be what you want me to be
I'd die at the thought of the loss of
your heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason

Don't be afaid
It's a harmless moon
All we can do
Is to assume
Our lives must change
A change is due
I hear you say
What are we gonna do
I don't know - make it
I don't know - shake it
I don't know - break it down
What are we wanna do
I don't know - make it
I don't know - shake it
I don't know - break it down
O' weeping night
O' grieving sky
O' rabbit wind
You just flew by
Grant me this
Some small reward
Don't announce
The time of the final call
My dream was this:
Across the sky
A slate-grey cloud
That filled the eye
...a slate-grey cloud...
Comes through the dust -
Locust
Dont' be afraid

I've fixed my dwelling for the night
Lights in pairs come passing by
where I hide
I need some time now on my own
Leave my loneliness alone
To lick my wounds
Night has found me just in time
to help me close my eyes
one more time
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
For so many days
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
Can't escape, if I wanted to
Living a boy's adventure tale
I may be dreaming but I feel awake
I've been lost in so many places
Seeked love in so many faces
A change of weather,
the rain pours down
My head in hands,
pressed to the ground
And where am I supposed to go now
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale (aah)
Living a boy's adventure tale
a voice I hear
Living a boy's adventure tale
Singing a lullaby for me
Living a boy's adventure tale
Because of you
Living a boy's adventure
Oh you know it's true
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways (aah)
For so many days
I love you. I love you

I never saw sunlight
Burn as bright
I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight
You say it's getting better
You say it's allright
But I never felt darkness
Like I feel it tonight
Little black heart
Raindrops on my window
I can't tell them apart
Like the few things forgiven
In my little black heart
You say it's getting better
We just never got it right
But I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight
Little black heart
Some day we will shine
Like the moon in the morning
Like the sun when it's dawning
Yes the sun when it's dawning
The sun
Some day we will shine
Like the moon in the morning
Like the sun when it's dawning
Yes the sun when it's dawning
The sun
Raindrops on my window
I can't tell them apart
Like a few things forgotten
And a few things ignored
You say it's getting better
You say it's allright
But I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight
Little black heart

Give it up for rock 'n' roll, give it up for rock
Give it up for how it made you feel
Give it up for vinyl days kicking back from school
Turning out to make it real sweet
Give it up for rock 'n' roll, give it up for Bob
Give it up for how it made you see
Give it up for silver tone, give it up for golden
Adolescent daydreams
Incidental incidents, instrumental instruments
A plan evolves too grand to entertain
Monumental monuments, sentimental sentiments
You could've been the keeper of the flame
You could've been the keeper of the flame
One day
Incidental incidents, instrumental instruments
Swallowed by the place from which you came
Monumental monuments, sentimental sentiments
You should've been the keeper of the flame
Give it up for summer days, laying in the grass
Everything is happening in your head
You raise your fist up in the air, clench your teeth and say
Four more years and I'm out of here
Give it up
Give it up
Give it up

It wasn't the rain that washed away...
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes
Putting the gun down on the bedside table
I must have realized
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
And I could have sworn it wasn't me
Yet I did it all so coldly
...almost slowly
Plain for all to see
Oh c'mon please now
Talk to me
Tell me; things I could find helpful
How can I stop now...
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I've been losing you
I can still hear our screams competing
You're hissing your s's like a snake
Now in the mirror stands
Half a man
I thought no one could break
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
...nervously drumming on:Run away
But I want the guilt to get me
Thoughts to wreck me
Preying on my mind
So, please now
Talk to me
Tell me; things I could find helpful
For how can I stop now...
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way

I won't forget her
She was once my love
When I hold you in my arms
Oh yeah
You know I'll let you come to no harm
Oh yeah
But if one day
Much like today
You stop and wonder what I'd prefer
Well, you know I won't forget her
I won't forget her
She was once my love
Did you see it in my eyes
Oh yeah
Did it make you realise
Oh yeah
That on a day
Much like today
My mind would wonder
If she's still there
Cause you know I won't forget her
I won't forget her
She was once my love
When I hold you in my arms
Oh yeah
She was once my love
I won't forget her

To hold me closer or set me free
To trust completely or let it be
You don't know my destiny
You can't see what I can see
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared
To love me truely or let me go
Inbetween I don't want to know
This is how it has to be
No more us and no more we
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared
Once again, on the station
See your face in a crowd
Comes again the sensation
You can't hear yourself think
With their voices inside your head
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared
I wish I cared
Yes I really do
I wish I cared
(Hey) I wish I cared
Yes I really do
I wish I cared
(Hey) I wish I cared
I wish I cared

We got married on a cold mid-winter's morning
We said our lines
Then kissed
And it was over
Those pronouncements had such weight
I guess they made us hesitate
Hesitate
When she moved her hips
And swayed in my direction
I thought we could make it yet
And beat the isolation
But in that gentle dark
Man, we tore ourselves apart
Through fire and rain
Through wilderness and pain
Through the losses, through the gains
On love's roller coaster train
I call your name
...We used to laugh
Is the fire dying, babe
It hurts to ask

Here I am
And within the reach of my hands
She sounds asleep and she's sweeter now
Than the wildest dream could have seen her
And I Watch her slipping away
Though I know I'll be hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to lengths I'll go
To find her again
Upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark
I sense the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I guess I'll be hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and Low
High
Do you know what it means to love you...
I'm hunting high and low
And now she's telling me she's got to
go away
I'll always be hunting high and low
Hungry for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Oh, for you I'll be hunting high and

Uh...yeah, that's alright
Lend us a voice in this howling night
Just about a month ago
You made a promise, babe
Not to go
Yes, you did now
You were the heart and soul
One to the nightfall
One to the stars
One to the haunted fools we are
One to remember
One to recall
One to acknowledge
Just how sweet it was, yeah
Just about a month ago
You make a promise
Ain't that so
Yes, you did now
Into this howling night
You got
You got
You got
You got me so
You got me so low
I wouldn't lie, babe - not again
It's such a crime
To while away my time
Little babe
One to remember
One to recall
One to acknowledge
Just how sweet it was
We were so happy
We were okay
We let our good thing, honey
Just slip away
Lend us a voice in this howling

Take your pride and lift it high
I've come to say goodbye
You've got your live and I've got mine
Sometimes hard to draw that line
I like to walk and my way is my own
You taught me how, don't you know
And there must be some place to meet
I'll take off my shoes, I'll walk bare-foot when I do
Standing there in front of you
I want to be honest, I want to be true
I like to walk and my way is my own
You taught me how, don't you know what we found
Brother maybe, we're on holy ground
Brother, take your pride and lift it high
Take your pride and lift it high
There must be some [Incomprehensible]
I must leave without you
Good advice, I grow stronger
Where the mountains rise
Standing there in front of you
I want to honest, I want to be true
In front of you
Brother, take your pride and lift it high
And I praise you
There must be some [Incomprehensible]
We're on holy ground
Brother, take your pride and lift it high
Take your pride and lift it high
There must be some [Incomprehensible]
And I praise you
Take your pride and lift it high

Words and music by Magne Furuholmen
You offer your assistance
But you won't accept my help
You draw your own conclusions
And there's room for little else
Your own participation's
Based on how much you can lose
I cannot help but feel
That this won't be of any use
Don't offer me your credit
'cause I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't wanna play that game
I do not want to see myself
As someone that you saved
I'd rather be your adversary
Than to be your slave
'cause every friendly gesture
Turns my stomach inside out
Don't do me any favors
I am better off without
Don't offer me your credit
'cause I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't want to know your name
But it's alright
Yes it's alright
Yes its alright
Yes its alright
Yes it's alright
Don't offer me your credit
'cause I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't want to know your name
Don't do me any favors
Don't do me any favors
Don't do me any favors
Coz it's alright
Yes, it's alright etc
Ooh-don't give me any credit
'cause I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favours
I don't want to see your face

You never look up
You never look back
You never say anything based on fact
You've got issues going way back
You never say 'hi'
You never say much
You never make an effort to stay in touch
I've got this feeling something happened here
Something happened here
Did anybody feel you?
Did anybody deal you?
Did anybody make you do some things now?
Did anyone approach you?
Did anybody coach you?
Did anybody tell you what to say now?
Hopeless - it's not hopeless
Doubtful - but not hopeless at all
You never looked up
You never look back
You never did anything in between
Are things black and white with you
You never believed
You never belonged
Never made milestones to call your own
I've got this feeling something happened here
Something happened here
Did anybody hide you?
Did anybody fight you?
Did anyone decide to do some harm now?
Did anybody read you?
Did anybody bleed you?
Did anybody feed you lots of junk now?
Hopeless - it's not hopeless
Doubtful - but not hopeless
Hopeless - it's not hopeless
Doubtful - but not hopeless at all
Hopeless - it's not hopeless
Doubtful - but not hopeless at all
Something happened here

Do you know why winter's such a cold and lonely place?
If you do
Breathe it into my bleached faces,
Falling from the sheets of my bed
Disappear
I hear the clock
Strike so prettily at the hours
I wear the path deeper,
following you
Girl I knew comes tired home from another working day
Cooks a meal
Lights the stove
And sees the snow;
Falling from a white painted sky
Drifting by
And here I come in through the door
I say "Hello" and very little more
Did she love me anymore?
Do you know why winter's such a cold place?
I'm laughing at the weather
You reminded me of something
It took me years and years to forget

It's time we said goodbye
Time now to decide
O' don't you feel so small
Dark is the night for all
It's time we moved out West
This time will be the best
And when the evenings fall
Dark is the night for all
It's time...yeah, to break free
It's time to pull away
For you and for me
It's time...yeah, to break free
We need to celebrate the mystery
It's time we said goodbye
Time for you and I
O' don't you feel so small

I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain

"Night I left the city,
I dreamt of a wolf..."
He came from where the winds are cold
And truth is seen through keyholes
...strange longings never sleep
Now he's come where no hearts beat
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now
You can start, but you cannot stop
You give in, but you can't give up
You can tell all your desperate jokes
To a world that puts your
Love on hold
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now
...the sunken-in eyes
And the pain in his cries
A shape in the dark...
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf

Hey hey, ha ha say what say what
Ha ha bust it yo
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in, is beautiful Brooklyn
Long as I live here believe I'm on fire hey
Cuz it's the B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
L-Y-N is the place where I stay
The B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
Best in the world and all USA
It's the B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
L-Y-N is the place where I stay
The B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
Place where I rest is on my born day
Bust it, sometimes I sit back and just reflect
Watch the world go by and my thought connect
I think about the time past and the time to come
Reminesce on Bed-Stuy when I was pride and young
I used to try and come, to the neighborhood function
Throw on my Izod, say a little something
When I was just a youngin, before the days of thuggin
How me and Charlie Chims (aiyyo what?) I'm only buggin
Fast forward, Nine-Now I gotta team my seed
I must proceed at God's speed to perform my deed
Livin the now space and time, round the nine to five
For as long as I'm alive, paw I got to strive
I ain't sittin roadside, that ain't harder to plan
I'm out here for my fam doin all that I can
I love my city, sweet and gritty in land to outskirts
Nickname Bucktown cuz we grown to outburst
Philosophy redefine us, touch mines I touch back
Walk the streets like a sweet and get beat like drum tracks
Catch no shakes over jakes (boomp-boomp!) we bust back
Bring the marty to your face wit no place to run back
I'm from the slums that created the bass that thump back
This ain't a game clown, play ya James Brown and jump back
What you want, Jack? Young cats stash they jums at
Draw they guns back, momma screams where she sons at
Tryin to hunt that, recurring dream of high stakes
The fourth largest, first artist, Brooklyn is the place
Settled by the judge many years ago
Three billion strong and here we go
GOOD MORNINNNNNNNNNGG VIETNAM!!!
Ha (back up back up back up back up back up)
Yo sometimes I sit back, reflect on the place that I live at
Unlike any place I ever been at
The home of big gats, deep dish hammer rim caps
Have a mishap, push ya wig back
Where you go to get the fresh trim at
Four on the jake got the Timb rack
Blue collars metro carding it
Thugs mobbin it, form partnership
Increase armorment, street pharmacist
Deep consequence, when you seek sleek ornaments
You get caught, rode the white horse and can't get off
Big dogs that trick off just get sent off
They shoebox stash is all they seeds gotta live off
It's real yo but still yo, it's love here
And it's felt by anybody that come here
Out of towners take the train, plane and bus here
Must be something that they really want here
One year as a resident, deeper sentiment
Shoutout "Go Brooklyn!", they representin it
Sittin on they front stoop sippin Guinesses
Usin native dialect in they sentences
From the treeline blocks to the tenaments
To the Mom & Pop local shop menaces
Travel all around the world in great distances
And ain't a place that I know that bear resemblance
That's why we it The Planet
Not a borough or a prov, it's our style that's uncalm
From ?sun? to the ? to the Lafayette Gardens
White ?coff guawinas? in they army jacket linings
Yo this goes out to my cats in Coney Isle
Friday night out in front The Himalaya goin wild
This goes out to Crown Heights and Smurv Village
The nighties, and all my ?yarda trenny? Brown's Village
Parkside tennants caught, thirties, forties, and the fifties
The cats out in Starite City gettin busy
To the Hook, to the East, to the Stuy
Bushwick and Kanarcy, Farraget, Fullgreen, and Marcy
My Flatbush posse, generals of armies
When it's time to form, just call me
And let this song be, playin loud in Long B
If you love Bucktown STRONGLY!
RAISE IT UP!
Brooklyn my habitat, the place where it happen at
Live sway and the sharp balance of the battle axe
Irons is brandished at, thugs draw they hammer back
It's where you find the news tool crew cameras at
It's where my fam is at, summertime jame is at
They play Big and get you open like a sandal back
Hotter than candle wax, hustlin you can't relax
The crack babies tryin to find where they mama's at
It's off the handle black, wit big police scandals that
Turn into actions screenplays sold to Miramax
The type of place where they check your appearance at
And cats who know where all the hot 'lo gear is at
The stompin grounds, where you find a pound, smoke is that
Be blazin charm that have your wave cap floatin back
The doorstep where the disposessed posted at
Dope fiends out at Franklin Ave sellin zovarax
You big ballin better keep your money folded back
Cuz once the young guns notice that it's over, black
Brooklyn keep on takin it, worldwide we known for that
Flossy cats get it snatched like the local tax
The place I sharpen up my baritone vocals at
