Agony's got a perfect mouth
She wears the finest clothes
Always black with a wide brimmed hat
That shades her eyes and her nose
And the strongest winds can't move her
And her hair, it never flows
Agony's got a perfect mouth
Wears the finest clothes
Agony's got a perfect mouth
And she lays in your head
With a nameless, faceless lover
On an unfamiliar bed
Don't bother trying to stop her
Because your feet will turn to lead
Agony's got a perfect mouth
Lays in your head
Agony's got a perfect mouth
And she'll never let you hide
She'll be there when they bury you
She'll be standing right behind your bride
And every door you open
You'll know that she's inside
Agony's got a perfect mouth and won't let you...
Agony's got a perfect mouth and she won't let you...
Agony's got a perfect mouth and ...
I don't lie awake at night
And wonder what it would be like
To be with you
No I don't, I don't wake at night
Wondering who
Is at this moment holding you
And anyway, why should I care
Whose arm it is beneath your hair,
So I don't ever wonder who
Or think that I am so insane
To think that maybe sometimes
You don't wonder the same
Though when you call me up
With nothing much to say
Gets me thinking
That I can't even tell my friends -
It's you on which my mood depends
I think that they'd be so amazed
They wouldn't talk to me for days
So I don't ever tell my friends
No, I wouldn't claim to have the right
To ask to be with you tonight
To see you naked like in my dreams
And then to hold your breath and to kiss your cheek
I don't lie awake at night
And I don't wonder what it would be like
To be with you
Maybe sometimes
When I'm dreaming and I see you
Maybe sometimes
You're standing there - arm in arm with someone new
Maybe sometimes
Well I try to stop myself from dreaming
Maybe sometimes
I just don't know what to do
When I think of you
I can't sleep at night
Slightly on the wild side
Your eyes betray the pain you feel
And you'd never be suspected
But you keep all the souls you steal
And your victims, once infected
Like vamipres, roam the town
Slightly on the wild side
When the sun is sinking down
Can you dream a little bit louder
Well I can feel something, but I'm not sure
Can you call out a little bit louder
Well I'm tasting blood and I want more
Am I just, am I just a chemical reaction
That is set to last a hundred years
And what gives me a sense of right or wrong
And what stops me controlling my hopes and fears
No I just can't seem to see the big picture
I don't feel I'm being guided day to day today
There must be a simple explanation
Magnetic field or maybe radio waves
You're irresistible, irresistible temptation
Something ancient from the other side
Unnatural selection
A perfect mouth slightly on the wild side
Stretch your arms out a little bit further
I'm sinking fast and I don't want to go
Down, down, down, down below
And if my grip were a little bit stronger
Maybe then and only then I could stop this slide
Please try and wait a little bit longer
Well I've never found it easy to decide
You're irresistible, irresistible temptation
Something ancient from the other side
Unnatural selection
Once there was a brave man
Who looked a lot like me
Who fought against injustice
And struggled to be free
And it sometimes makes me shudder
To think of him
Looking down at me
At the way that I squander my pride
And the things he left to me
But I have his eyes
I have his smile
I had a head start
But it's too late
They've caught me now
And I wish that I could be
Half as brave as you
The things you felt then
I know, I feel them too
Once there was a brave man
Wh knew just what to do
I'll never know another
But my son, my son... he'll know one too
And he'll have his eyes
He'll have his smile
He'll have a head start
And they'll never catch him
He's gonna run for miles and miles and miles
And I hope that he
Can be half as brave as you
The things you felt then,
I know, he'll feel them too
He's gonna feel them too
The things you felt then
I'm feeling
He's gonna feel them too
Quiet, quiet in the corner of the house
You first knew
Sits a boy that you invented
Who'd dream your dreams
And be with you
A faithful friend, a fine companion
Though long abandoned - still he's true
He's ashamed of his creator
Who tried his best
But it just won't do - for all the things
That wouldn't happen
And all the loves we nearly knew
And all the roads we'll never walk down
And all the dreams
They won't come true
They won't come true
Wouldn't hurt
half as much if we hadn't tried so hard
Laziness has always been my excuse
But this time it's just not true
And I bet you're still gazing at the classroom window
At the Straw Bear on the Drybread Road
And I think that it's time for me to collect you
And all the things we've missed before
For all the things that wouldn't happen
And all the love we nearly knew
And all the roads we'll never walk down
And all the dreams
They won't come true
They won't come true
For all the things that wouldn't happen
And all the love we nearly knew
And all the roads we'll never walk down
And all the dreams
They won't come true
The light doesn't work in the bathroom
And my friends are all waiting outside
The sound of laughter rises up from the courtyard
The children cling to the skirts of the bride
And the noise from outside shakes my windows
You know this city can sometimes taste sweet
Of a perfume called "Diesel Vanilla"
On the nape of the neck of the street
Think I'll take one more walk 'round the dance floor
To make sure that there's no one I've missed
To make sure that there's nobody here who'll pretend
That tonight I really exist
So who cares what the people are thinking
As we spill down the stairs to the door
You know there are twenty-three reasons for drinking
There ain't one to be flat out on the floor
You know nobody does what they should do
No I don't think I'll ever behave
Though my clothes don't fit like they used to
And It's too dark in here for to shave
And I take one more walk 'round the dance floor
To make sure that there's no one I've missed
To make sure that there's nobody here who'll admit
That tonight I really exist
Someday I'll find myself somewhere I've never been before
And I will see you there the moment I'll open the door
We'll talk and be polite
And joke about destiny
But I know this time will be different
By the smile you smile for me
We'd both be amazed by coincidence and fame
Both be amazed just how long we had to wait
And then I'll take one more walk 'round the dance floor
To make sure that there's no one I've missed
To make sure that there's nobody here who'll pretend
I love being drunk on my bicycle
It makes me feel just like I can fly
The pretty girls are like birds
And the cars are like clouds
And I'm feeling as blue as the sky
Yes I love being drunk on my bicycle
Well there's no place better to be
Free wheeling will have you believing
That you might really be free
So come on and ride with me
on the path of least resistance
Let's bury our heads in the sand
And then let's hope
that tomorrow our problems will be over
Well don't that just feel like a plan
I love being drunk on my bicycle
If you see me best leave me alone
It's a solitary activity
And I need my space to roam
Yes I love being drunk on my bicycle
While I am I might sing out a tune
And one day I might play it for all the others
Who are drunk on their bicycles too
So come on and ride with me
on the path of least resistance
Let's bury our heads in the sand
And then let's hope
that tomorrow our problems will be over
I dreamt I was in heaven
and I was sitting in a bar
With all the other angels,
you were smoking a cigar
One hand on your hip
and one foot on a chair
And a golden ostrich feather
that was planted in your hair
And if I really were an angel,
I'd float over your bed
Each night a different dream of me
I'd plant inside your head
And if I were an angel,
I tell you what I'd do
I'd appear in a vision
and I'd give my wings to you
And I'd say "come closer
Fly into the light
And please, please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight
And please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight"
I dreamt you were a Jinni
and I found you in the sand
And you were trapped inside a bottle
and I held you in my hand
And you said you'd grant me wishes
if you were ever freed
I said "an empty head when I go to bed
is all I ever need"
So I, of course, released you, hoping you would keep
your word
And you laughed the cruellest laught that I had ever
heard
And you said "about these wishes, it's too late to
decide"
But I remembered that it was my dream... so I put you
back inside
I dreamt I was a pirate
aboard a pirate ship
And for a hand I had a hook
and for a heart I had a whip
And you were trapped inside your bottle
and I kept you down below
And you begged me to release you...
but I would not let you go
One night I was awoken
while we were out at sea
By a floating appartion
glowing incadescently
And I could see you clearly
as all around was black
And you tore off both your wings, said
"Hey now you can have them back!"
And you said "come closer
Fly into the light
And please, please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight"
No you said "please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
I don't know if you still want me
I don't know if you still care
I don't know if you feel something
Inside your underwear
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
I was calculating
You were the one for me
I thought I was the one for you
But I was out by twenty three
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
You were kissing me
I was kissing you
Thought I'd show you my pride and joy
Turns out you've got one too
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
Even though you made me blue
Lisa picks her coffee up
And takes a small sip from her cup
She flashes with her blue eyes
Over at the counter
Where the spanish boys are talking loud
And hiking up their trousers proud
She feels herself expiring
Like the ticket on her windscreen
While Janni sits there all alone
All alone with his Walkman on
And he taps the rhythm gently
With his fingers on the table
And he's trying not to sing along
Sing along to his favourite song
He doesn't want to be play like that
He just wants to make her eyes see
That he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
He just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
Then she pads her lips with a serviette
Christ knows why they're never wet
And anyway he knows
She'd be back again tomorrow
And there's one thing wrong with the afternoon
It always comes around too soon
He sees her slip her magazine away
Walk over to the door
But he knows how to keep his cool
And he knows how to make it
He can stop himself from falling
But he has had to learn to fake it
Anyway, she's made today
A better day than yesterday
At least he feels alive today
And he could do the same for her
If he could make her eyes see
That he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
He just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
He knows how to keep his cool
And he knows how to make it
He can stop himself from falling
But he has had to learn to fake it
Anyway, she's made today
A better day than yesterday
At least he feels alive
And he could do the same for her
If he could make her eyes see
that he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
And he just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
Than any boy has been, than any boy has been
I know a man
Who goes to work everyday
And I know a man
Who pays his bills come what may
And every night
On his way home
He stops off in a bar
And he drinks alone
And its so easy to be lost
So easy to feel so used
Its so easy to be lost
When you're thirty and confused
I remember a time
You use to drive an expensive car
And I remember the day
He bought his first guitar
Everyday he'd practice
They couldn't stop him, who would dare
He must've played in a million bands
But he never got no where
And its so easy to be lost
So easy to feel so used
It's so easy to be lost
When you're thirty and confused
And have you ever
Had to live on your own
I know a man
Who's lost his home
You see he met a girl
And she stole his heart
Changed his world
Tore it apart
And its so easy to be lost
So easy to feel so used
It's so easy to be lost
When you're thirty and confused
When you're thirty
When you're thirty
When you're thirty
Your voice is still inside my head, you guide me
With your expressions there as well
You know how hard it is sometimes to hide me
I'm sure that everyone can tell
I'm still as strong but somehow not so well protected
Though you were far I felt you near
Now there's not much left that can hurt me or affect me
My age has doubled in a year
I don't believe in God but still find that I'm praying
You know that I believe in you
I just imagine what you would have told me
That's how I still know what to do
I'll make a child but that's not to replace you
It's to replace the child in me
I hope whatever God he will decide to pray to
Will say the things you say to me
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Upon those wings
While they're still new
I remember it well
Do you remember as well
You flew
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Meet me in the Gods
Meet me in the Gods and fly
Upon those wings
While they're still new
I remember it well
Do you remember as well
Sometimes... it feels like my time is coming
Sometimes... it feels like my days are through
The phone it rings always when by bath is running
Out the door with all my things
And it's all over now Baby Blue
Well you know I've got me an imaginary friend
And it's his daydreams they buy in the end
He won't let me break, he won't let me bend
He puts it all together and I just press send
And he's a shadow behind me in the light
And he takes me walking in the park at night
He makes me do something wrong, do something right
And disappears before the morning
The further we stretch
The higher the sky
It get's harder
The harder we try
The faster we run
The longer the road
The stronger we get
The bigger the load
When I fell in love with you
It wasn't the way I dreamt it would happen
Bells didn't ring, no violins
Or me on a horse with Nelson Eddy's hat on
You're not Jeanette McDonald
And our signs don't match
We dance with an opposite sway
You said you needed to run
And have fun, fun, fun
'Til your Daddy took the T-Bird away
The further we stretch
The higher the sky
It gets harder
The harder we try
The faster we run
The longer the road
The stronger we get
Don't be frightened, don't be scared
It happens everyday
Your're only lying to yourself
If you decide to stay
And i know that you worry
That he might get to know
So don't tell him where you've been
Or where you're about to go
Just steal away, steal away from him
It's only one commandment and everybody sins
Steal away for you to be free
I've lied for you a thousand times, now you can lie for me
Why the hesitation
It happens all the time
You've always had it your way
And now I want it mine
You never were aware
Of all the things you put me through
All the lies and the shame and the pain and the guilt
Now you can feel it too
And you - steal away, steal away from him
It's only one commandment and everybody sins
Steal away for you to be free
I've lied for you a thousand times, now you can lie for me
And you don't know what I do for you
No, you don't know - no, no - what you put me through
What you put me through
Steal away, steal away from him
It's only one commandment and everybody sins
Steal away for you to be free
I've lied for you a thousand times, now you can lie for me
Steal away, steal away from him
It's only one commandment and everybody sins
Steal away for you to be free
I've lied for you a thousand times, now you can lie for me
We used to play on Saxon Street
Outside Gino's after school
That's where we'd meet
Wearing black boots on latin feet
On Saxon Street
At school they taught us
How they'd ruled the world
Then they'd smother us with their flag unfurled
And I, well I kissed my first girl
On Saxon Street
Francesca against the window
She would press her nose
She would have loved to have been with us
But they made her mind her clothes
And I'd be brave
I'd stand and watch her from outside
She'd always try and make me go
But I'd never try to hide.
Well, we used to play on Saxon Street
Outside Gino's after school
That's where we'd meet
Wearing black boots on latin feet
On Saxon Street
Well now, some of us run businesses
And some of us are in jail
And most of us, quite frequently
Upon a cross, get nailed
And I ask myself where am I now
Oh and if you walked beside me
Would you realise who I was
Would you recognise me
Would it be something you were feeling
Way deep down, that told you
We used to play on Saxon Street
Outside Gino's after school
That's where we'd meet
Wearing black boots on latin feet
I found out where you live now
It's not so far away
Sometimes I go walk by your house
But I never see you
And I know the way that you wear your hair
And the colour of your car
Sometimes I go walk by your house
But I never see you
No, but you are the one
The one that I think about everyday
Yeah, you are the one
The one that I miss when I go away
And although I know
That you probably can't remember my face
Or the things that I say
But I would die just to talk to you again
So you see it's not important
For you to know the way that I feel
Nothing ever happened between us
And it never will
So why do I embarrass myself
By doing the things that I do
You know that.
I can't even bring myself to turn my head
So I never see you
No, but you are the one
The one that I think about everyday
Yeah, you are the one
The one that I miss when I go away
And although I know
That you probably can't remember my face
Or the things that I say
But I would die just to talk to you
Oh I would die just to talk to you
Last week you got married to a new boy
You met six months ago
He's sweet on you and he's been carried on a tide of joy
The only way to go
New clique, you've met his familiy and all his friends
From years gone by
Was it a rude speech by the best man?
Bet your mother couldn't wait to break down and cry so
Go, please go
Because your hair is like a storm cloud
And sharks swim in your eyes
And I say go, please go
Because your tongue is like a serpent
And your mouth is full of lies
Seeing you here, well that's no surprise
That's no surprise
And a good life, I hope you have one
In a nice house
With nice things too
Good job, I hope he keeps one
And you in the style that you're accustomed to
Don't cry because I can't take it
And when you go, I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna slam the door, pace the floor
Fall down on my knees
I'm gonna cry out your name and say ...
Go, please go
Because your hair is like a storm cloud
And sharks swim in your eyes
And I say go, please go
Because your tongue is like a serpent
And your mouth is full of lies
Seeing you here, well that's no surprise
That's no surprise
All the time we spent, well that's all wasted
And those tears we cried can all still be tasted
So why don't you take away your hips and thighs
Take away your beguiling eyes
Take it all away and then don't come back again,
Just go, please go
Why don't you go
Your hair is like a storm cloud
And sharks swim in your eyes
It's a nice surprise to see you
Christ, you look even better than before
It's not fair to ask if I still want you
When you know I need you even more
And I'm glad we're both alright now
We've got ourselves back under control
We're just living day to day
And we're sticking, we're sticking to our role
But if I lived a thousand years
Everyday I'd think of you
A thousand years
Do you think I'll see them through
But sometimes it feels just like a slow spiral
Spinning round, sinking down, down, down below
Out of control I'm in a slow spiral
And I'm free-falling into the dark and cold
But if I lived a thousand years
Everyday I'd think of you
A thousand years
Do you think I'll see them through
No, it's nobody's fault what happened
And there is nothing anybody can do
It's not that long...
No, I said a thousand years is not that long
No, a thousand years is not that long
I've got a girl
She's so mean
She hit my cat
With a magazine
Put my guitar out
In the rain
And when I brought it back
She put it out again
I've got a girl
And I drive her so crazy
She says I'm just
Fat and lazy
Asks me what I've done all day
Then plays an air guitar
With a funny face
Well I put a small dream in an empty tin
Where you might think there's nothing in
But look again with the right spirit
You might just find there's a small dream in it
I paint pictures in the air
And you might think there's nothing there
But there'll be times when you need
To look again then you'll believe too
So take a box
From beneath the sink
And put in all
The things you think
Take the poison
From your head
And put a dream inside instead
There's nothing
More vulgar
Than repression
Nothing more futile
Than a confession
Nothing more important than
That crazy dream
By your old man
Well I've got a girl
And she's six foot long
And I'm not saying that she's wrong
She would never tell me lies
She likes to help and organise
I'd be the last to say that she was cold
But she has to stay in control
Of herself and all around
She can't let go or make a sound
She should put a small dream in an empty tin
Where you might think there's nothing in
But look again with the right spirit
You might just find there's a small dream in it
I paint pictures in the air
And you might think there's nothing there
But there'll be times when you need
We're in a bad bad place, what are you doing here?
Are you the chaser or the chased?
Were you sent here to help me?
Or to seek out and destroy
We're a bad bad place,
I've been a bad bad boy
I look ahead and all I see is confusion
Feels like everybody is doing the same
While half the world is writhing in pleasure
The other half is writhing in pain
I'm in a bad bad place
Looks like you're still here
It is written on your face, you are living in fear
No creature can help you, no prayer he can pray
We're in a bad bad place
We made it that way.
I look ahead and all I see is confusion
Feels like everybody is doing the same
While half the world is writhing in pleasure
The other half is writhing in pain
Seems like you have to be ruthless
If you want to be loved
It's getting easier to take what you need
But losing it is just as tough.
We're in a bad bad place,
We're all following rules
The market has put in place
Are we really such fools?
We just want more and more
We don't count the cost
We're in a bad bad place,
Looks like the wrong side lost.
I look ahead and all I see is confusion
Feels like everybody is doing the same
While half the world is writhing in pleasure
The other half is writhing in pain
Cinderella
(Music & Lyrics: Ezio Lunedei)
Cinderella was on the last train
That stops at every station
Yes, she stayed long after midnight
Yes, she gave in to temptation
She thought her lipstick and her hairspray
Would stand her in good stead
And Cinderella is on the last train
When she should be home in bed
The man - he leans across the table
With his coat over his arm
Hoping she might read its label
Its his one and only charm
While she's thinking of excuses
She should make when she gets home
Like a bomb scare or an accident
Nowhere near a working phone
Cinderella was on the last train
That stops at every station
Yes, she stayed long after midnight
And she gave in to temptation
She thought her lipstick and her hairspray
Would stand her in good stead
And Cinderella is on the last train
When she should be home in bed
The man - he stares at her reflection
Hoping he won't catch her eye
She's just a face against the darkness
With streetlights flying backwards in the sky
The train - it stops between two stations
A cold wind blows over his knee
And he's filled with trepidation
When he thinks where he should be:
Not with Cinderella on the last train
That stops at every station
Yes, he stayed long after midnight
And yes, he gave in to temptation
He thought her lipstick and her hairspray
Would stand him in good stead
He's with Cinderella on the last train
When he should be home in bed
The dawn - it rises in the distance
Like one they'd never seen before
Now there's a poem on the window
And there are burnmarks on the floor
And the collector walks straight past them
Returning to his flask of tea
He's smiling safely in the knowledge
He's the only one that's paid to be
With Cinderella on the last train
That stops at every station
Yes, she stayed long after midnight
Yes, she gave in to temptation
He thought her lipstick and her hairspray
Would stand her in good stead
Now Cinderella is on the last train
When she should be home in bed
Should be home in bed
Late at night when it goes quiet
In my heart there is a riot
I just stare out into the night
Hoping things will work out right
I'm not sure what I should do
I can't stop dreaming about you
A thousand faces have been replaced
And all my tastes have lost their taste
And all my discs have been wiped clean
Of all the naked images I've seen
An ancient feeling feeling new
I can't stop dreaming about you
Well I've been here before
On my knees staring at the door
And you don't really like it
If I'm around here
You like it even less if I go somewhere
So I just rock myself to sleep
Me and the secret that I keep
I hear you move in the next room
I won't be there anytime soon
We leave each other black and blue
I can't stop dreaming about you
Well I've been here before
On my knees staring at the door
And you don't really like it
If I'm around here
You like it even less if I go somewhere
Late at night when it goes quiet
Hello Marina where have you been
And where is it you have just come from
You've showed yourself off to the world through a
screen
Doing things that you should be ashamed of
But don't worry they'll never know
That you, you are the star of the show
You got lost in the crowd
Hello Marina and who did you leave?
Is there someone still waiting for you?
Is he counting the seconds and is he starting to greave
The memory of that girl he once knew?
But don't worry he'll never know
That you, you are the star of the show
You got lost in the crowd
This world is too big
This world is too big
This world is too big it's too loud
Hello Marina he's forgotten you're name
And he can't remember the password
So I don't think you'll ever see him again
There are so many distractions
That it's absurd
So don't worry he'll never know
That he, he was the star of the show
But he got lost in the crowd
Because this world is too big
This world is too big
You're saying nothing
And you're keeping quiet
But I know something is wrong
You just keep smiling
But your smiles are lying
It's obvious something is wrong
And each time you cry
It feels just like something is dying
I'm pretty useless
I drive you crazy
All I can hear is the blood in my ears
I don't deserve you
I'm selfish and I'm lazy
I guess I've been that way for years
That's why each time you cry
It feels just like something is dying
Well I'm much older now than my father was
By the time he'd said all he had to say
I guess that having more time just gives you more ways
for you to go a stray, loose your way
Well I don't think that you
Would be so unhappy
If you knew the way that you made me feel
Well I don't think there's anyone that's better than you
And I know you'll never feel that way about me
And each time you cry
Moon - you're just a ball
and you - you're just a girl
Moon, moon - you're just a ball
God knows he's only playing pool
Prayer - you're a long distance call
And hope springs eternal
Leaves me to stare at the moon
Name - you're nothing more
Face - face, you're only skin and bone
Voice - you've been to heaven and back
By the time that I hear you on the telephone
House - the one that I was born in
I read somewhere you spin at 600 miles an hour
Sun - it's obvious you're stalling
Don't burn out of fire
Burn just as long as you can.
Thighs - you're just for walking
Bond - I know we bond out of fear
Song - you're a moon starer talking
And laughter - you're the smile that he can hear
Moon - you're just a ball
Desire - you're the only nature
Pain - pain, you're my self defense
Love - how can I love or hate you?
When you say that I haven't got common sense
Honesty - I know that you're rewarded
Lies - you're rewarded as well
Money - once they get you hoarded
They try to convince me
You can't buy me happiness and health
Power - is what excites you, I wish that I did as well
Meek - you think that you shall inherit
In that case I think I want to be in hell
Moon - you're just a ball
You - you're just a girl
Moon - you're a girl
she loves to drive east in the evening when the sun is all golden and low
when nobody knows she's arriving and there's nobody waiting at home
she told that she still has a lover but he's away for a year at a time
and if I wanted to I could go see her but she told me she'd never be mine
she said that she loves to go dancing but she'd rather go dancing alone
she said that there's no point in dancing with someone that you already know
then she asked me if she met a stranger would I share her for only an hour
she said don't worry boy there's no danger I get amnesia straight after a shower
and I know that you do what you say
and what you want while you're away
I just wish you wouldn't look at me that way
for so long, so long
she said don't wait for me in the darkness I can find my way home if it's clear
by observing the stars and their movements and by holding a shell to my ear
she said boy you'd better find yourself somewhere new to go after your days work is done
because me I love to drive east in the evening I can't wait for the night time to come
I love to drive east in the evening you know it makes me feel so alive
I can't wait for his sweet return and for the night time to arrive
and I know that you do what you say
and what you want while you're away
I just wish you wouldn't look at me that way
No one knows me in this place
Never heard my name, they've never seen my face
No one's walking the street outside
It's late, it's raining, it's Tuesday night
Spanish girls clap quickly
And their bodies turn slowly
And their heels go
tap, tap, tap tap, tap on the floor
And the barman he ignores me
He won't stop his conversation
With the poster of his hero on the door
And the young girls smile sweetly
And they cross their legs discretely
And pretend to be much older than they are
Well me, I can't stop staring
At their breasts and at what they are wearing
And at the mirror they are facing at the bar
And I want you, I want you from afar
I want you the way I want a Vibra-slim guitar
Yes I want you
Let me stand in your hallway light
It's late, it's raining, it's Tuesday night
Why does my glass keep disappearing
Why have I lost all sense of hearing
Why do I wonder if I ever really had a friend
Let me revel in the madness
Let me aggravate my sadness
Is there a heart that I can break
Or one that I can mend
How about you?
Did he swear he'd never leave you
Did he promise he'd never deceive you
And now does he ever speak your name
Do you recognise your sorrow
In my eyes look out, by tomorrow
You'll regret having been taken in again
And I want you, I want you from afar
I want you the way I want a Vibra-slim guitar
Yes I want you
Let me stand in your hallway light
well I found myself eating at an immigrants table
and there were strange voices coming from a black &
white TV
there was steam from the kitchen and it misted up the
mirror
and when I wiped on my reflection for the first time I
saw me
yes I found myself eating at an immigrants table
there were smiles that would cut through any Sunday
gloom
there were other children playing in the front room &
on the staircase
but I had to watch the steam as it swirled around the
room
it seemed to hang in the air
rise up to the sky
and it circles in space
after years have gone by
and it drops to the ground
and runs to the sea
the one in the photograph behind me
and it makes a wave
crashes in to the rocks and sand
and wets the soap that takes away the day
from both your face and hands
and I drank it from a glass
and it's all inside me again
and I found myself eating at an Immigrants table
and there were brave men talking about the way things
used to be
and everything was clean on those special Sundays
deep voices made me feel safe and that's the way it's
meant to be
and that's the way it's meant to be and there is no way
you can change it
you can try with all your might but you'll never
rearrange it
who we are, where we're from
where we're going, we go there alone
and we all know joy and we all know fear
and we all know the bittersweet taste of tears
that dry on your face
and rise to the sky
and circle in space
after years have gone by
and they drop to the ground
and run to the sea
the one in the photograph behind me
and it makes a wave
crashes in to the rocks and sand
and wets the soap that takes away the day
from both your face and hands
and I drank it from a glass
and it's all inside me again
seems to hang in the air
and rise to the sky
and circles in space
after years have gone by
and it drops to the ground
and it runs to the sea
the one in the photograph behind me
and it makes a wave
crashes in to the rocks and sand
and wets the soap that takes away the day
from both your face and hands
and I drank it from a glass
She's an accordion girl
Built with an accordion swirl
She'll let you squeeze
And stretch her right over your chest
And I've heard some people say
She can be so hard to play
That whoever succeds
Will be bound to impress
And I suspect that she once had a lover
Who's memory haunts her still
And he's unaware of the girl he's created
And that his memory always will
He's made an accordion girl
Decked in mother of pearl
She's got a look
And a tone that just mellows
She's got buttons, that you can press
Still got her makers' address
And she'll groan with a heave of her bellows
And I suspect that she once had a lover
A lover that made her give in
And he's unaware that he's left her suspended
Like a chord in a ballad that won't ever begin
She wasn't put on this world to be happy
She wasn't put on this world to be with you
She wasn't put here to find out the hard way
The permanent harm that a song can do
She wasn't put on this world to be happy
She wasn't put on this world to be with you
She wasn't put here to find out the hard way
Just how cold some keys can feel
When she was younger sometimes
She'd meet men in the afternoon
She might find herself
In a strangers room
With all the time in the world
She'd drive around this town
And we would all stare and wonder
They say that she had someone
Who'd do anything she'd say
They never did have a family
And now he's gone away
With all the time in the world
She'd drive around this town
And we would all stare and wonder
What kept her around, with
Too much sun up in the sky
Too much time on her hands
Too much hope in the air
Too much not making plans
Too much blood in her veins
Too much shine in her hair
Too much life in her limbs
With too much burning down there
As free as a flag
As high as a pole
In this town you just can't see that you're getting old
Now she's stealing from supermarkets
Store detectives they all know her name
And when they see her
They say oh no! Not her again!
With all the time in the world
She'd drive around this town
And we would all stare and wonder
What kept her around with
Too much sun up in the sky
Too much time on her hands
Too much hope in the air
Too much not making plans
Too much blood in her veins
Too much shine in her hair
Too much life in her limbs
Thought about you once again
And I got mad at myself
I got out of bed and then
Became somebody else
I retrace all the steps
I've walked a thousand times before
I won't place them there again
Another thousand times I'm sure
And I hope each day you'll call
Though I really know you won't
It might seem I keep control
Though really I don't
And I go out and I get drunk
And I don't care what I say
And some people they get angry
While most just turn away
And the few friends I have left
They worry for my health
Thought about you once again
And I got mad with myself
And I'm losing control
And I don't know what to do
And I'm losing control
It's true
And I'm losing control
And I don't know what to do
I've been waiting for too long
I've stopped crying in my sleep
I'm alright but it's all wrong
the only secret that I keep
is I've been waiting for too long
I've been waiting for too long
and it seems I'm doing well
and I hope you are as well
I just drive around the world
singing songs about a secret girl
who's been waiting for to long
shes been waiting for too long
sometimes I wish that you
were here with me
like I wish I could fly
only you could ever set me free
like a bird up in the sky
I've been waiting for too long
I've been waiting for too long
and my problems are hard to solve
sometimes they all just seem way too involved
and I could wait for them too fade away
until somebody turns to me and says
you've been for too long
you've been for too long
sometimes I wish that you
were here with me
like I wish I could fly
only you could ever set me free
like a bird up in the sky
I've been waiting for too long
I've stopped crying in my sleep
I'm all right, I'm all right but it's all wrong
the only secret that I keep
is I've been waiting for too long
I've been waiting for too long
Pull back the curtains
Let the sunlight stream in
And let it light up your eyes
And lay its warmth upon your skin
Come over here
Just lay for a while
Let's do nothing
And let's do it with style
And run where you should be now tomorrow
Just run where you should be now tomorrow
I could bring you some tea
And something to eat
Then we'll step over the bills
And down into the street
And walk down the road
Or drive to the sea
We'll do what you want
Please do it with me
And run where you should be now tomorrow
Just run where you should be now tomorrow
I could call up your work
And say you're not well enough to go
As long as we're both discreet
No I really don't think that they will ever know
And there's no work for me
No and the world stops turning when you're not here
And it's good that your're free
You say I'm your man
Well now he needs you near
So run where you should be now tomorrow
Just run where you should be now tomorrow
Just run away
Can't face you getting up and leaving today
Is there anyway that I'll convince you to stay
To stay
To stay
Today...
All the boys have finished shaving
And they can't wait any longer
So they jump into their cars
And they drive away
The girls have finished phoning
Finished phoning one another
They're just dreaming of a stranger
With a kind word to say
The sun won't seem to go down
The kids can't seem to grow up
They sit aside a house
On their front wall
And all the passers-by
Won't look them in the eye
They're trying to ignore
All the names they call “heaven”
Hey, you cut behind the gardens
You know there's something special
On in the air
A fine fragrant feeling
The kind that you remember
The kind that only happens
Once or twice a year
TVs blare through open windows
From families that you know
I think about the night
Then I think about you
But you may not be at home?!
Already on the phone?!
Or laying in the arms of somebody new?!
So I call you tomorrow
Will you be there?
If I call you tomorrow
Will you even care?
If I call you tomorrow
Will you whisper my name?
If I call you tomorrow
Will it be the same?
If I call you tomorrow
Will you be there?
If I call you tomorrow
Will you even care?
If I call you tomorrow
Will you whisper my name?
If I call you tomorrow
This is the day I'm finally set free
I don't have to run anymore
It's taken a long time but finally
I know what's to be done and I'm sure
That you are the one that I would choose
To watch me take my final breath
This is the day I'm finally set free
I just don't know how many are left
This is the day I'm finally set free
I hope that I'm not too late
God only knows you've been patient with me
Maybe you've decided to wait
Because you are the one that if you should choose
Could watch me take my final breath
This is the day what have you got to lose?
I just don't know how many are left
I don't know how many days are left
Because you are the one that if you should choose
Could watch me take my final breath
This is the day I'm finally set free
I just don't know how many are left
You - you put the words into my songs
You blow the wind in my sails -
That keep me moving on
And you - do you realize just what you've done
You live your life -
And I'm a silhouette against the sun
Oh - and Alex, this is your song
I would like to see it fly
Above the roofs of Cam
So that one day you'll be mine
One day when I'm braving up
I'm gonna face you eye to eye
So that I'm gonna be
Icecold - icecold like Alex
Icecold, icecold, icecold like Alex
And you - torment me with your eyes
You won't be fooled by my lies
You keep me moving on
And you - oh yeah, you
Ya ya you - don't realize just what you've done
Oh - and Alex, this is your song
I would like to see it fly
Above the roofs of Cam
So that one day you will be mine
one day when I'm brave enough
I'm gonna face you eye to eye
So that I'm gonna be
Icecold - icecold like Alex
Icecold, icecold, icecold like Alex
Icecold, icecold, icecold, icecold, icecold
I was hoping you wouldn't notice
But when I see you I go to pieces
That that's the reason I act so foolishly
I hope you'll have mercy on me
I don't know too much about you
But your friend said you like Bruce Springsteen
David Gray said I was like him
And Booga looked like a sumo wrestler
Well at the time that really pissed me off
And now I wish you could have heard him
I don't know too much about you
You must be cool because you like Bruce Springsteen
I'll never be the boss just lower management I guess
I've never had a Thunderbird
A beat up Volvo is less absurd
I'd do anything to impress you
I'd do anything to caress you
I grew up in a town called Whittlesey
I've never been to New Jersey
I don't know too much about you
But your friend said you like Bruce Springsteen
I'll never be the boss just lower management I guess
He never went to Vietnam
You wouldn't catch me in Dagenham
I was hoping you would notice
But when I see you I go to pieces
That that's the reason I act so foolishly
I hope you'll have mercy on me
I don't know too much about you
I dreamt I was in Heaven
And I was sitting in a bar
With all the other angels,
You were smoking a cigar
One hand on your hip
And one foot on a chair
And a golden ostrich feather
That was planted in your hair
And if I really were an angel,
I'd float over your bed
Each night a different dream of me
I'd plant inside your head
And if I were an angel,
I tell you what I'd do
I'd appear in a vision
And I'd give my wings to you
And I'd say, "come closer
Fly into the light
And please, please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight"
No I'd say, "Please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight"
I dreamt you were a genie
And I found you in the sand
And you were trapped inside a bottle
And I held you in my hand
And you said you'd grant me wishes
If you were ever freed
I said "an empty head when I go to bed
Is all I'll ever need"
So I, of course, released you, hoping you would keep your word
And you laughed the cruellest laugh that I had ever heard
And you said, "About these wishes, it's too late to decide"
But I remembered that it was my dream... so I put you back inside
I dreamt I was a pirate
Aboard a pirate ship
And for a hand I had a hook
And for a heart I had a whip
And you were trapped inside your bottle
And I kept you down below
And you begged me to release you...
But I would not let you go
One night I was awoken
While we were out at sea
By a floating apparition
Glowing incandescently
And I could see you clearly
As all around was black
And you tore off both your wings, said
"Hey now you can have them back!"
And you said "come closer
Fly into the light
And please, please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight"
No you said, "Please don't be stupid
Let me sleep tonight
I was alone
I found love
Now I got some (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You came along
Right on time
With a new song (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Now there's nothing in this life now that could go wrong
Oh no (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Not me (yeah you you you)
How could (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You do (do do do do)
The more I see
The more I want of you
I was afraid
I would be sad and lonely
I was afraid
You would not be my one and only
Well I got so hung
Now I'm gonna stake my pony
Oh no (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Not me (yeah you you you)
How do (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You do (do do do do)
The more I see
The more I want of you
Was a world outside my window
Should I hide from it
Tired of it
But I know the sea of shadows running far
