Smallwood, a joiner, takes carpenter out for a meal
As soon as we dock see the captain to get a better deal
My darkness in mind is concealed
I'm in here alone and unreal
But not anymore
Not anymore
Up above and outside we looked towards the stern of the
ship
Weighed up the anchor and then I decided to slip
Land well in middle and row
I'm tired of deceiving my soul
But not anymore
Not anymore
Won't be at this station too long
Took too many journeys alone
But not anymore
Not anymore
I leap the boat clear without paying my bills, I just
left here
Precious sight in my eyes as I take the last dive, I shed
no tears
I'm taking a guess
This life is a mess
But not anymore
Evening shadows fade
I turned to my true love
She has the strength to say
The words that I cannot
In darkness, our darkness
So heartless, this darkness
I'm lost here in the gray
Awaiting for your returning
I watch them while I play
Flames flicker with my yearning
For darkness, our darkness
So heartfelt, this darkness
Through streets and avenues
Will you come back to your lover?
The place for me and you
Is here with no other
In darkness, our darkness
So heartfelt, this darkness
My arms they open up for you
[Incomprehensible] through
We talk of understanding
We talk of love
The evening shadows change
I turned back to my true love
She has the strength to say
The words that I cannot
In darkness, our darkness
So heartfelt, our darkness
So heartless this darkness
Our darkness, in darkness
Open up your door
I can't see your face no more
Love is so hard to find
And even harder to define
Ooh open up your door
Cause we've time to give
And I'm feeling it so much more
Open up the door
Open up your door
Open up the door
I can't hear your voice no more
I just want to make you smile
Maybe stay with you a while
Ooh open up your door
Cause we've time to give
And my feelings aren't so obscure
Open up the door
Open up your door
So open up your door
Cause we've time to give
And I'm feeling it so much more
Open up your door
Ooh open up your door
Love is so hard to find
And even harder to define
Ooh open up your door
I've never been so sure
Ooh open up your door
Well I've been out here on the ledge now
For so many years that I've lost how
The nights go by sitting in this car
Well I've tried to leave but I don't get far
I'm standing here on the edge now
The dark goes in and the light goes out
You know you were so cruel
All the things you put me through
But I only need just one chance
Yes I only need just one chance
Then I'll be over you
I'll be over you
Well I've been out here on the ledge now
For so many years that I don't know how
You lose the ones you love the most
And left out here just on your own
And you only get just one chance
Well I only need the one chance
Then I'll be over you
Oh my child It's been a while
I've got my style
I've got my life
Oh my love
Oh my love
You're a cut above the ones who say
You're a cut above me today
Oh my one
Now don't you run
It's just begun
Oh you're the one Oh my child
It's been a while
I've got my style it's for you to taste
I've got my life for me to waste on the run
Oh my love
Oh my love
You're a cut above
All the ones I've loved
Oh my love
Ah oh my love
You're a cut above the ones who take
You're the one I love and no mistake
You're a cut above but all my love's too late
All my love's too late
All my love's too late
Life can be unkind, I've seen it in your eyes
I've loved you all my life, and loving you is fine
But I won't let you go straight
No I won't let you go
Cos we're just one big happy family
And we're not touched by the hands of tragedy
And I'm so, so cold in here
And I'm so, so alone in here
And just a little vague
For and on behalf of the people gathered here
You know I've waited years, for this moment to pass
One of these days, I'll have to get a life
You know I don't do things right
And I'm so bored in here
For you I'll give, everything
Everything that I have
The night is on, the DJ’s gone
There's only us, the friendly ones
So take the bait, I just can't wait
It's a long dark road that I call my home
It's a long dark road that I'm cursed to roam
These many nights I've been banished here
My companion is the stars
With a bed roll and a blanket
And just the rocks to lay my bones
One day from the darkness I'll come rapping at your door
And I'll never walk this road anymore
It's a long dark road that I call my home
It's a long dark road that I'm cursed to roam
These many nights I've been banished here
My companion is the stars
With a bed roll and a blanket
And just the rocks to lay my bones
One day from the darkness I'll come rapping at your door
And I'll never walk this road anymore
No, I'll never walk this road anymore
And I'm here the first standing here on the moon
It took us years of work
But we got through
And yet now, I'm here just on my own
So cry a tear for the man on the moon
Cry a tear for the man on the moon
Cry a tear for the man on the moon
And this spinning blue jewel here in my palm
Far away down there just seems so small
And yet, now I'm here I see it all
So cry a tear for the man on the moon
And yet, now I'm here I see it all
So cry a tear for the man on the moon
Cry a tear for the man on the moon
Going to the station, ticket in my hand
Gonna see my lady, think she'll understand, my lord
Walkin to the river, take my rocking chair
Let that feeling overtake me, drift away from here, my
lord
I think I'm coming home to you, my lord
I think I'm coming home, my lord
Got a situation, blowin’ in my head
Got a short time to stay here, long time to stay dead,
my lord
Goin’ to the station, it's time for me to go
Don't think that I will miss you, when that whistle
blows, my lord
I think I'm coming home to you, my lord
I think I'm coming home, my lord
I think I'm coming home, my lord
Don't know if it's the force, or the situation
But something just bother's me
Don't know if I can make it
Somewhere else
Goin’ to the river, take my old chair
Let that feeling overtake me, drift away from here, my
lord
Drift away from here, my lord
Drift away from here, my lord
Roll river, keep on rolling
Ancient lady cold
I'm forsaken, lost and forgotten
Roll river roll
Roll river, roll river roll
Let it take me, free and unchain me
Ancient lady cold
Keep on rolling, roll on forever
Hope we shall meet at home
Roll river, roll river roll
You hold my body, lost and forsaken
In your deep waters cold
Oh, sacred river take me to my sweetheart
My lonely bones
Will she remember?
Oh, river take me on my journey home
Deep dark waters to learn your secrets
River angel rise
Roll river, roll river roll
You're caught
In the net
Fathoms deep
In regret
Remorse code
The message sent
Count the cost
Of a force spent
In those white lines
Made your eyes wide
Unenlightened lies
In those white lines
The ship is wrecked
With all hands
Look to the reef
False lights from the land
Way off course
The fool's sail is set
Lashed to the wheel
To pay the stars their debt
With those white lines
Made your eyes wide
Unenlightened lies
In those white lines
The clipper calls
Her siren dares
And she gives you
A hand lock of hair
Laid to waste
Drowned alone
Burned out
A seashell of a soul
With those white lines
Made your eyes wide
Unenlightened lies
In those white lines
Oh, those white lines
Oh, those white lines
Oh, those white lines
Made your eyes wide
Unenlightened lies
In those white lines
I was likewise
In those white lines
Do you know why you got feelings in your heart?
Don?t let fear of feeling fool you
What you see sets you apart
And there?s nothing here to bind you
It?s no way for life to start
Do you know that tonight the streets are ours?
Tonight the streets are ours
These lights in our hearts they tell no lies
Those people they got nothing in their souls
And they make our TVs blind us
From our vision and our goals
Oh, the trigger of time it tricks you
So you have no way to grow
But do you know that tonight the streets are ours?
Tonight the streets are ours
These lights in our hearts they tell no lies
And no one else can haunt me
The way that you can haunt me
I need to know you want me
I couldn?t be without you
And the light that shines around you
No nothing ever mattered more than not doubting
That tonight the streets are ours
Do you know how to kill loneliness at last?
Oh, there?s so much there to heal dear
And make tear stains of the past
But do you know that tonight the streets are ours?
Tonight the streets are ours
These lights in our street are ours
Tonight the streets are ours
In the still of the night I call out your name
You know and nothing feels right
And it won't do again
You say you're gonna leave me now
You're turned away on your side, you kill the light
from my eyes
You played to deceive me now
Like a thief in the night you stole the love from my
world
And you don't miss your water 'til your river runs dry
And you don¹t miss your lover 'til they're waving
goodbye
Well I hope that you know
That I'll still see your eyes In the deep of my soul
All the days of my life
And you say you're gonna leave me now
You're turned away on your side, you kill the light
from my eyes
You played to deceive me now
Like a thief in the night you stole the love from my
world
And you don't miss your water 'til the river runs dry
And you don't miss your lover 'til they're waving
goodbye
Bye bye bye bye
And you say you're gonna leave me now
You're turned away on your side, you kill the light
from my eyes
You played to deceive me now
Like a thief in the night you stole the love from my
world
And you don't miss your water 'til your river runs dry
And you don¹t miss your lover 'til they're waving
goodbye
And you don't miss your water 'til your river runs dry
And you don't miss your lady 'til she's waving goodbye
Who's gonna shoe your pretty little feet?
And who's gonna glove your little hands?
And who's gonna kiss your ruby-red lips?
Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm
Papa's gonna shoe your pretty little feet
And mama's gonna glove your little hands
And I'm gonna kiss your ruby-red lips
Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm
Who's gonna rock your li'l rockin' chair?
And who's gonna sing you to sleep?
And who's gonna wipe away your little tears?
Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm
Papa's gonna rock your li'l rockin' chair
And mama's gonna sing you to sleep
And I will wipe away your little tears
Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm
And papa's gonna rock your li'l rockin' chair
And mama's gonna sing you to sleep
And I will kiss your ruby-red lips
Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm
And I will kiss your ruby-red lips
Hold me in your arms, may they keep me
Sing me a lullaby, 'cause I'm sleepy
I'm scared you don't need me anymore
Bring me to the light of the morning
Take me through this night till the dawning
Oh, I see a warning in yours eyes
We don't need no valentines, no, no
Don't need no roses
'Cause it just take me back in time, no, no
Now you're not here
Hold me just tonight, sleep will tend me
Save me from lonely hours, there's so many
I won't get any sleep tonight
And don't need no valentines, no, no
Don't need no roses
'Cause it just take me back in time, no, no
Now you're not here anymore, not anymore
Don't need no valentines, no, no
Don't need no roses
'Cause it just take me back in time, no, no
When you left me lonely
And I won't drink no aged wine, no, no
Now you're not here anymore, not anymore
Lately I've been thinking about the chosen words you said
Where nothing seems to spin outside the space that's in
your head
You are so dark and the space in your heart is so black
You think you look forward but really you are looking
back
Time has made a change
Darkness comes around me every time I hear your name
You tiptoe so politely but to me it's just the same
You are so dark and the space in your heart is so black
You think you look forward but really you are looking
back
Time has made a change
Your young and you should make light of it
There's no time cos you could get lost in it
Time has changed
Time, time, time has made a change
Has made a change
The sea calls, out to an old hand
To go sailing to new lands
They pay for your worth
Bread drink and a berth...Ah honey I've got to go
The ship took the crew off to new lands
The boson piped all hands
And with it you'll go
A journey to the unknown...Ah honey I've got to go
The road bends, back to where we sent
The signals out to the men
Did they make it on board
With fire and the sword?
Ah honey I've got to go
Can you hear the winds blow?
It shakes your spirit and your soul
I've tried, to stay true and stay on land
But the call of the ocean
Is so hard to ignore
It's why I'm leaving your door...Ah honey, I've got to
I've seen, a ship with a black sail
When the wind howls and the ghosts wail
Dead men they don't bite
Their faces haunt me at night
Ah honey I've got to go
Can you hear the waves roar?
And no sound of the shore
It shakes you spirit and your soul
I dream of sailing the oceans
In a galleon all golden
Dead trees in the hearth
The way they burn it warms the heart...Ah honey I've
got to go
The years passed, we travelled and sailed west
I'll buy you a new dress
With all of my gold
Free your spirit and your soul
Ah honey, I've got to go
Can you hear the winds blow?
Shakes your spirit and your soul
The only road I walk alone, where beauty nails me to
her cross
Bleeding from my hands and feet I whisper that my love
is lost
I water flowers in the rain, I dance beneath your
silver flames
I'm crippled by the sound of love
Beating in my lonely frame
My lonely frame
So please keep me in your heart
So please keep me in your heart
Now it's dark, you have my heart frozen on your empty
face
Maybe soon my luck will change and love will find a
resting place
I water flowers in the rain, I dance beneath your
silver flames
I'm crippled by the sound of love
Beating in my lonely frame
This lonely frame
So please keep me in your heart
So please keep me in your heart
I water flowers in the rain, I dance beneath your
silver flame
I water flowers in the rain, I dance beneath your
silver flame
I water flowers in the rain
I dance beneath your silver flames
I water flowers in the rain I dance beneath your silver
flames
So please keep me in your heart
You lead me down to the ocean
So lead me down by the ocean
Y'know it's been a long time, you always leave me tongue-
tied
And all this time's for us, I love you just because
You lead me down to the ocean
The world is fine by the ocean
Y'know this time's for real, it helps the heart to heal
Y'know it breaks the seal of the talisman that harms
And so you look at me and need.. the space that means as
much to me
So lead me down to the ocean
Our world is fine by the ocean
Y'know the way it is in life, it's so hard to live up to
So why are you still dressed in your mournin' suit? I
assume, I assume
You'll lead me down, to the ocean
Don't leave me down by the ocean, the ocean
Here comes the wave, here comes the wave
Here comes the wave, down by the ocean
Day's leaves are falling, they melt into the night
I'll be with you when I'm dreaming love and you'll tell
me it's alright
My eyes closed, my thoughts calm and now I'm locked in
I'll just wait and sink back down and I'll be with you
again tonight
The nights are made for us
All our days are cursed
It feels so right to lust
It helps to heal the loss
And we're here because
The fate of man is random so don't look down
The towns and the cities are all burning down
Your road is bitter like the whip off the wind
You wanna get to the end but you don't know how to begin
You want to know how we got to where we are now
The nights are cold
The nights are cold
The nights are cold
Let my life and all it's storms begin to blow
Take me here and there I don't care where I go
Ah, beauty is a dark cloud when you're alone
She says she has the answers but I really just don't know
You want to know how we got to where we are now
The nights are cold
The nights are cold
The nights are cold
The nights are cold
Ah the only road I walk alone
And I don't know my way back home
My motorcycle's full of holes
And I can't find my way back in
I'm hungry and my shadow's thin
The road of anyone can change I know that we won't meet
again
The key was in the open lock
You'd see through any blanket fog
There's places is on the seabound roll
But I can't even find the boat
I don't know the way back home
My motorcycle's full of holes
Full of holes
Full of holes
And someone turned the lights way down
But shelter is what brought you round
She said the outside is the in
It's risky when you drink that gin
The key was in the open joint You'd see from any vantage
point
And I can't find my way back in
I'm hungry and my shadow's thin
There's places is on the seabound roll
But I can't even find the boat
And I don't know my way back home
My motorcycle's full of holes
Full of holes
I had a dream and, you were in it
We got naked, can't remember what happened next,
It was weird
I had my fortune, told and it
Said that I would meet some—body with green eyes
Yours are blue
If you seek it you won't find another's eyes
So, blinded by love
Blinded by love
In your heart lies, long-term loneliness
It sits there like an, unexploded hand-grenade
Time ticks away
Over the hills there, is a valley
In that valley, lies a little tiny house
Unoccupied
If you seek it you won't find another's eyes
So, blinded by love
Blinded by love
Blinded by love
(Break)
If you see your heart's desire laid bare
On a vandalised bus you know I'd sit with you anywhere
I had a dream and, you were in it
We got naked, can't remember what happened next,
It was weird
I've got a secret, I don't want you to
Know that you can reach it
If you promise to close your eyes
It's all inside
If you seek it you won't find another's eyes
So, blinded by love
Blinded by love
Blinded by love
Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
And [someone's?] little children, he took their lives
This was the act of a desperate man
With all the love in his eyes and no evil hands
He was standing at the sky's edge
And out there, who knows what he's thinking?
He was sliding down the sky's razors edge
And watched his life slowly sinking away, away, away
Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat
She had to sell her body to put the shoes on her feet
Stole a car and tried to get away
Now all that she hears is the rain on the roof in sky's edge, jail
She was standing at the sky's edge
And out there, who knows what she's thinking?
She was sliding down the sky's razors edge
And watched her life slowly sinking away, away, away
They were standing at the sky's edge
And out there, who knows what they're thinking?
They were sliding down the sky's razors edge
And watched their lives, slowly sinking away, away, away
Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade
So much fear in the city, it carried him away
Young men are fighting and losing their lives
At night as the screech owls in the trees watch, young men die
They were standing at the sky's edge
And out there, who knows what they're thinking?
They were sliding down the sky's razors edge
And watched their lives, slowly sinking
They were standing at the sky's edge
And out there, there's dangerous thinking
They were standing at the river's edge
I'm going away now sweetness, don't be sad
Though tonight was the best night that we've had
I'll put away my old suit and say goodbye
Cause something is with us tonight
Oh come on now sweetness don't you cry
The living here hasn't been easy for a while
I'll put away my old shoes and say goodbye
'Cos something is with us tonight
Yeah I'm leaving on the next train that's blowing round
the bend
And I'll be there by the morning and I won't be back
again
'Cos I¹ve just seen the ending to our story
Well something is
Yeah something is
Yeah something is with us tonight
I'm going away to the station in the rain
I'm sorry sweetness but there¹s nothing more to say
I've put away all my old things, this is goodbye
'Cos something is with us tonight
Yeah I'm leaving on the next train that's blowing round
the bend
And I'll be there by the morning and I won't be back
again
'Cos I¹ve just seen the ending to our story
Well something is
Yeah something is
I'm going down to the place tonight
To see if I can get a taste tonight
A taste of something warm and sweet
That shivers your bones and rises to your heat
I'm going down to the place tonight
The damp and hungry place tonight
Should all the stars shine in the sky
They couldn't outshine your sparkling eyes
But it's so hard to be the one
To touch and tease and to do it all for fun
But it's too much for a young heart to take
Cause hearts are the easiest things you could break
And I talk to the filth and I walk to the door
I'm knee deep in myself
But I want to get more of that stuff
Of that stuff
Some candy talking
Talk
And I want
And I want
Some candy talking
Some candy talk
I love the way she's walking
I love the way she's talking
It's just the way she's walking
It's just the way she's talking
And I need
All that stuff
Give me some
Of that stuff
I want your candy. I want your candy
And I need
Give me some
Of your stuff
Give me some
I want your candy. I want your candy.
I want your candy. I want your candy.
Never say goodbye
You're the apple of my eye
The bells I hear them ring
And in the churchyard children sing
For so long
For so long
I've soldiered on
For so long
Another blessed morning comes
Thy will on earth be done
Blundered into the abyss
To seek the wonders of your kiss
I still can taste your lips
My hands upon your hips
For so long
For so long
I've soldiered on
For so long
As the stars they slowly die
Thunder cracks across the sky
These are the words I've longed to say:
Be with me, my love, always"
But no our moonlit silhouettes they part and fade
I'm left with a loneliness that has no name
For so long
For so long
I'll soldier on
For so long
Never say goodbye
When you are in love
Ah, you feel the stars above
There's no devil in her eyes
There's no darkness in disguise
But when you are alone
A kiss can turn your heart to stone
Hearts breaking in the night
There's a devil in her eyes
Oh, it's serious, so serious
A kiss that caught the wind made you delirious
Oh, it's serious, so serious
Take her in your arms, don't be afraid
Never be afraid
When you are in love
All the stars burn bright above
There's a kindness in her eyes
There's no darkness in disguise
Oh, but when you are alone
Oh, your heart it turns to stone
Hearts breaking in the night
There's a devil in her eyes
Oh, it's serious, so serious
A kiss that caught the wind made you delirious
Oh, it's serious, so serious
Take her in your arms, don't be afraid
Never be afraid
Oh, it's serious, so serious
A kiss that caught the wind made you delirious
Oh, it's serious, so serious
So take her in your arms, don't be afraid
Later here this morning, if the crowds hold back the rain
I¹ll declare my intent to race again
Baby I¹ve done running
I¹ve cut myself a deal
Gave myself a ladder, this time for real
And I¹ve got nothing on the inside left to charm, just
look at me
And I¹ve got nothing to live up to and nothing to reveal
Go on run for me
Go on run for me
Go on run for me because I can¹t take it back
Gone the summer gone the past and now it¹s done
Now it¹s done
The lane is laced with ashes
My road is paved with fear
I bathed myself in sweet grass to tame the years
And I¹ve got nothing on the inside left to charm, just
look at me
And I¹ve got nothing to live up to and nothing to reveal
Go on run for me
Go on run for me
Go on run for me because I can't take it back
Gone the summer gone the past and now it¹s done
I'll see myself out of this world
We don't get long and no rehearsal
So I'll shade my eyes and watch the shadows grow
'Cos I'm not coming back
Maybe I've been too long in this town
Even the happy faces just bring me down
So maybe now it's time to move on
And hold that torch again
But it's too hard a road
I can't make it on my own
Yes it's too high a climb
It just breaks this heart of mine
No way home
I just sit here and count the time
Sometimes I'm frightened what's in my mind
The things that just seem to stick in there
I wouldn't want you to know
This is all the time that we have
All those ways to love you never get it back
So I'll wear shoes that walk the distance
'Cos I'm never coming back
And it's too hard a road
I can't make it on my own
Yes it's too high a climb
Oh this broken heart of mine
There's no way home
It's too hard a road
I can't make it on my own
Yes it's too high a climb
For this broken heart of mine
No way home
No way home
No way home
No way home
I left my life somewhere behind, my screwed up eyes don't
seem to shine
Since the day you said goodbye, I just don't seem to try,
it's true
Oh it's so true
What have you done to me baby?
I'm just wasted and wake in the morning and get up
screaming
You gave your light to someone new, like an arrow runs
away from you
Cast your stone into the fire, now feet don't walk and
I'm so tired, it's true
So true
What have you done to me baby?
Oh these days just break me
And now I'm wasted and wake in the morning and get up
screaming
I left my life somewhere behind, my screwed up eyes don't
seem to shine
Since the day you said goodbye, I just can’t seem to try,
it's true
So true
What have you done to me baby?
Oh the days just break me
What have you done to me baby?
Don't run from me lady
Love, love of my life
Speaking so soft to me
I wait in the rain
Your sin in your eyes
Washing all over me
Time, time on my side
Wondering sweetly
I'm singing your name
Your name on my mind
You think of it all for me
Love in this same old disguise
Love of my life
Love of my life
Love of my life
Love of my life
Love of my life
Washing all over me
Love in the same old disguise
Love, love of my life
Sleeping so softly
I burn in the flames
The flames of your eyes
Waiting all over me
Time, time on my side
Whispering sweet to me
I'm singing your name
Your name on my mind
You think of it out for me
When the nightingale sings in the deep of the night
And the robin he sleeps on the wing
Hear the toll of the bell ringing out all is well
And the city's golden lights shining on
Ride the long black train
Ride the long black train
It takes us all the black train Take me home black train
Ride the long black train
Ride the long black train
It takes us all the black train
Take me home black train
And the shadows we pass turns my soul into glass
And the streets that I walk are all tamed
Hear the toll of the bell ringing out all is well
And the city's golden lights shining on
Ride the long black train
Ride the long black train
It takes us all the black train
Take me home black train
And the briar and the rose in the churchyard they grow
'Neath the clock tower tall all entwined
And the raven he flies round the oak as she sighs
And the candles they call out my name
To ride the long black train
Ride the long black train
It takes us all the black train
I'm going away now baby's gonna be alright
I just can't stand another lonely night
Going away now baby, gonna take my shoes
Gonna walk off these lonely blues
And I'm going away now baby don't you think of me
I'll be wandering somewhere you can't see
I'm going away now baby gonna be alright
It's just that I can't stand another lonely night
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
I'm going away now baby's gonna be alright
I just can't stand another lonely night
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Mmm...
Take me with you when you go down to the river
It's the only place I know where I can forgive her
Take me with you when you go
I'm tired of living life on hold
Take me with you when you go down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river, oh I know
Take a walk with me awhile, it's quite by the river
Oh, I know that she's gone, but I can't forget her
Take me with you when you go, it's the only place I know
We lost the dreams that we once had
How did our lives turn out so bad?
Take me with you when you go down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river, oh I know
Down to the river, I can't forget her
I'll stay forever and watch it flow
Take me with you when you go
Lady's bridge is where we know
Now that our lives turned out so bad
We lost the dreams we once had
We can watch the river flow
And maybe make this city slow
Take me with you when you go down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river, oh I know
Down to the river I can't forget her
Wake in the morning, feel low
I don't sleep at night
Oh, you've broken my heart
Here in the dark moonlight
I see a rainbow, I don't know where it goes
Gonna follow my dreams
Oh, someday baby
They're gonna shine for me
Leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
Yes, I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
I know the story, I know how it goes
You've broken into my soul
But you won't take it out
On me no more
I hear a whistle blowing
Morning low, guess I'll ride that train
Well you never wrote a letter
You hurt your man again
I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
Yes, I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
There's a river flowing away from my door
Think I'll sail away
Oh, and one day baby
I will feel no pain
Think it's raining in my soul
Flowing from my eyes
Think this morning will see us
Say our last goodbyes
I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
Yes, I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
Well, I'm leaving Lady Solitude behind me
You understand
You understand, you understand
Walkin' silent through the snow
Driftin' softly to your door
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I feel so strange, I feel so weak
I've walked a world of empty streets
In search alone
I've searched alone
But you're still in my mind
You're still in my mind
And here's where the sound
Of my tears hits the ground
Just like the rain
Just like the rain
When we walked along the shore
My darkness shaded, all we saw
I was unkind
I was unkind
I feel so strange, I feel so weak
I've walked a world of empty streets
In search alone
I've searched alone
But you're still in my mind
You're still in my mind
And here's where the sound
Of my tears hits the ground
Just like the rain
Just like the rain
But you're still in my mind
You're still in my mind
And here's where the sound
Of my tears hits the ground
Just like the rain
Just like the rain
Just like the rain
And all those wasted years
And all those pointless tears
They're over love
And all those wasted days
Are leading us to say
It's over love
It's over love
It's over love
It's over love
And all those pointless fears
And all those wasted years
They're over love
And all those wasted days
Are leading us to say
It's over love
It's over love
It's over love
It's over love
It's over love
I¹m on nights, we need the money
I'm half alive but I'm thinking of you
Do you know why?
Oh I know why
On dark nights, no need to worry
I'll work my time but I¹ll try to hurry
So don't you cry
No don't you cry
Baby don't you know
Baby don't you know
I¹ll love you 'til the end of my time
Baby don't you know
And now it's time to lose your sorrow
I'm on days and off tomorrow
So don't look back
No don't look back
'Cause baby don't you know
Baby don't you know
I'll love you 'til the end of my time
Baby don't you know
'Cause baby don't you know
Baby don't you know
I'll love you 'til the end of my time
Baby don't you know
I'll love you 'til the end of my time
Baby don't you know
Baby don't you know
When you're tired and little lonely
And your heart has nowhere to head
Think of me, I'll be thinking somewhere
All of those things that you said
Don't be cruel to me
Don't be cruel to me
'Cause I'm looking for someone to find me
I'm looking for someone to love
I'm hoping that someone will find me
I got no one to love
When your day is plagued by loneliness
You got no one to call
My name is here in the phone book
I'll be straight right to you
Don't be cruel to me
Don't be cruel to me
'Cause I'm looking for someone to find me
I'm looking for someone to love
I'm hoping that someone will find me
I got no one to love, I got no one to love
I'm hoping that someone will find me
Someone to call my own
Someone who will be kind to me
'Cause I got no one to love
When you're faced with life that ain't working
When your heart is heavy inside
Well, it's time to think of leaving
All that darkens your mind
Don't be cruel to me
Don't be cruel to me
'Cause I'm looking for someone to find me
I'm looking for someone to love
I'm hoping that someone will find me
I got no one to love, I got no one to love
I got no one to love
I'm hoping that someone will find me
Someone to call my own
Someone who will be kind to me
'Cause I got no one in this world or this life
Thinkin', I've been thinkin'
You've seen me glide along this way before, this way
before
Drugged by dawn I sleep alone
Lonely, I've been lonely
And I've asked my speechless shoes just were you are,
just were you are
In search at dawn I sleep alone
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Deeper, I'm goin' deeper
Seeping below the darkest thoughts of man, the thoughts
of man
Through these thoughts I sleep alone
Through these thoughts I sleep alone
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Silence, only silence
Take these words and ring my thoughts to you, these
thoughts to you
Through these thoughts I sleep alone
Through these thoughts I sleep alone
Drugged by dawn I sleep alone
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm
Ten thirty in this hotel room
You and I locked in the gloom
Lost out of love once again
But I've got you here with me, friend
'Cause you're here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Last time I looked it was nine
You know that all things then were fine
Now I've gone and lost it again
But I've got you here with me, friend
'Cause you're here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Y'know that it's like leadin' a mild life
The clothes in my younger days were so wild
And it's time I met someone like you
And I hope to make certain that it's true
Last time I looked it was late
That's when I started to break
It's a long long way 'til the end
But I've got you here with me, friend
'Cause you're here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Here in my arms
Put you here in my arms
It was your birthday yesterday
I gave a gift that almost took your breath away
But to be honest I nearly left it on the train
For your lover give some time
You talk forever on the phone
To your mother and with my thoughts I'm left alone
Now and then I think "How strange our love has grown"
For your lover give some time
I'll give up this cigarette
Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest
And be your lover for all time
Maybe I will drink a little less
Come home early and not complain about the day
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then
For your lover give some time
I think of places that I've seen
A skipping stone across the ocean I have been
A ruthless man with no one else to share my dream
And for my lover gave no time
Heres is a toast to you Helen
To all the cinemas we ran in from the rain
Laughing clutching soaking newspapers to your face
And for your love you gave some time
I'll give up this cigarette
Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest
And be your lover for all time
Maybe I will drink a little less
Come home early and not complain about the day
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then
And for my lover give some time
The future here is shattered
Your voice as thin as rain
Unholy broken shadows
You know you’ll never tame
This winter lake is frozen
Cold fantasy turned on its’ side
The screw just keeps on turning
As guilt makes you decide
That you can’t cry
Although you’ve tried
Run and hide
But Don’t You Cry
The Clock’s have stopped their ticking
Time grips you in its vice
These hands have always claimed you
Marooned here in mid-night
Poet’s have their studies
Babies have their mind
Just visions from a hilltop
Or a train journey late at night
But you can’t cry
Although you’ve tried
Run and hide
But Don’t You Cry
Faces haunt the mirror
Dark voices close behind
They’re nothing to the horror
Of the loneliness you hide
Your mourning views its headstone
Its cruelty knows no bounds
A mist enshrouds tomorrow
Today the hammer pounds
But you can’t cry
Although you’ve tried
Run and hide
But Don’t You Cry
Got no dreams to speak of
Hopes’ teeth they start to bite
Your heart; all molten ashes
Its’ sparks shower you in spite
You envy all the others
The ones who own their eyes
Serenity is a planet
On which you can’t reside
Your lovers’ ghostly memory
Haunts you all your days
His ship sails bold horizons
You stalk him in its’ wake
But you can’t cry
Although you’ve tried
Run and hide
From what’s inside
Oh you can’t cry
Although you’ve tried
Run and hide
But Don’t You Cry
He knows that she’s so sad
She knows that good’s turned bad
He knows that she’s so sad
She knows that clocks don’t turn back
He knows that she’s so sad
She knows that good’s turned bad
He knows that she’s so sad
Love just drifts us on,
On our way, to the fields where we will play today.
Louis brings his kite,
With a homemade paper-chain.
Strange to see the sight,
Of the moon, in the daytime not the night.
I will lift you up,
So high, on my shoulders to the sky.
Ahhh...
Don't stare at the sun too long.
Don't stare at the sun too long.
Singing in the dark,
On our way home, the day is done for sleepy ones.
On the fire escape,
My telescope, that scans the evening sky.
If I could see it all,
All to be lost, in the galaxy of distant stars.
Did I see your face?
It weighs so much, to be alone tonight.
Ahhh...
Don't stare at the sun too long.
Don't stare at the sun too long.
You scare everyone,
If you stare at the sun.
Don't stare at the sun too long.
(GUITAR BREAK)
Where you gonna go
Now they've closed the old home down
And everybody's let you down?
But you're the beauty of the town
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
Don't let 'em make your heart grow old
Don't get hung up in your soul
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
You're the one who's seen
The darkness on the edge of town
You're the one my arm's around
You're the thorn and you're the crown
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
Don't let 'em make your heart grow old
Don't get hung up in your soul
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
Don't let 'em make your heart grow old
Don't get hung up in your soul
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
Darlin', wait for me, by your gate
In the evenin' light, ah I just can't wait
For I have to go, in the mornin', too soon
So, honey, don't you cry; I'll be back here soon
So think of me, when you feel that moon
Oh it calls to me, as it calls to you
Darlin' wait for me, I'll be home then
When the autumn leaves bring me back again
Darlin' wait for me, darlin' please wait
'Til the evenin' light, by your starlit gate
So think of me, when you feel that moon
Oh it calls to me, as it calls to you
That's all I ask of you, all I ask
'Til I hold your hand, there'll be peace at last
Don't wait up 'til it's dark
All those lonely hours that we're apart
Darlin', please
Darlin', please
Darlin', please
Darlin', do you remember me
Back when I used to be your darlin'
Darlin' you know it¹s so hard to tell
Why you said farewell, to me darlin'
You said you wanted to be free
But this loneliness is just killing me
My darlin'
My darlin'
Darlin' hey what you doing now
Me I¹m just hanging round
Mmm darlin'
Darlin' I¹m just here in the rain
With all my old old pains
Oh my darlin'
You said you wanted to be free
But this loneliness is just killing me
Oh my darlin'
Oh my darlin'
Hold back the night from us
Cherish the light for us
Don't let the shadows hold back the dawn
Cold city lights glowin'
The traffic of life is flowin'
Out over the rivers and on into dark
I'm goin' down town where there's music
I'm goin' where voices fill the air
Maybe there's someone waitin' for me
With a smile and a flower in her hair
I'm goin' down town where there's people
The loneliness hangs in the air
With no-one there real waitin' for me
No smile, no flower, nowhere
Cold city lights glowin'
The traffic of life is flowin'
Out over the rivers and on into dark
Hold back the night from us
Cherish the light for us
And don't let the shadows hold back the dawn
I'm goin' down town where there's music
I'm goin' where voices fill the air
Maybe there's someone waitin' for me
With a smile and a flower in her hair
I'm goin' down town where there's people
My loneliness hangs in the air
With no-one there real waitin' for me
No smile, no flower, nowhere
Look into my eyes
And stay for a while
We can close our eyes, love
And let the dreams come softly
Can you hear the rain, love?
Fall on your window
Can you hear the rain, love?
Gently fall
Here comes another tear
For the silence in me
And as its darkness clears
I wake you gently singing
Can you hear the rain, love?
Fall on your window
Can you hear the rain, love?
Gently fall
Oh it seems so far away
Oh it seems so far away
