Kylie Ann Minogue, OBE ( /ˈkaɪliː mɨˈnoʊɡ/; born 28 May 1968) — often known simply as Kylie — is an Australian singer, recording artist, songwriter, showgirl, and actress. After beginning her career as a child actress on Australian television, she achieved recognition through her role in the television soap opera Neighbours, before commencing her career as a recording artist in 1987. Her first single, "Locomotion", spent seven weeks at number one on the Australian singles chart and became the highest selling single of the decade. This led to a contract with songwriters and producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman. Her debut album, Kylie (1988), and the single "I Should Be So Lucky", each reached number one in the United Kingdom, and over the next two years, her first 13 singles reached the British top ten. Her debut film, The Delinquents (1989) was a box-office hit in Australia and the UK, and received generally positive reviews.
Initially presented as a "girl next door", Minogue attempted to convey a more mature style in her music and public image. Her singles were well received, but after four albums her record sales were declining, and she left Stock, Aitken & Waterman in 1992 to establish herself as an independent performer. Her next single, "Confide in Me", reached number one in Australia and was a hit in several European countries in 1994, and a duet with Nick Cave, "Where the Wild Roses Grow", brought Minogue a greater degree of artistic credibility. Drawing inspiration from a range of musical styles and artists, Minogue took creative control over the songwriting for her next album, Impossible Princess (1997). It failed to attract strong reviews or sales in the UK, but was successful in Australia.

Truly, the Ball of the Wild!
Warning!! The jungle is hot and wet and it brings out the beast in you!
i had a passion for strangers and prescription
painkillers. now is that so bad? i do what i do, but i
don't do what you did. we got a wicked ignition, and the
devil makes three, i'm just trying to rev up my engine.
are you trying to punish me? i was born to a little dead
angel. she dressed my wounds in tape and paper. she said,
"does it still hurt real bad? i am where i am and you're
where you're at." it's like there's searchlights on
inside me, and when they sail past my eyes you can see
the flicker of something i've been trying to find. we
weren't here at the same time, she was leaving just as i
arrived. she touched my hand as she went past, and said,
"your heart is all you have. and if asking for directions
proves that you are lost, well how else you ever gonna
get where you want?" i look at all the things i purchased
when i was feeling worthless, but the stores become
cages, holding blank faces and time wated. and time is
passing, time is dying, time is history, and in all this
time, the clocks hands never once reached out for me. but
you can tell now that i'm tired, oh it's exhausting to be
so diligent in my vigilance, to have a heart that never
sleeps. so this lullaby for lonesome bella can never be
complete, i might close my eyes to dreaming, but i don't
miss a beat. like a soldier up all hours waiting for the
enemy, i'm always watching, always guarding, oh my heart
You and me, babe, we got lost in the same maze
And I'm not great with change so let's stay lost, let's
stay
Are all those tears for me?
Or are some for who I'll never be?
At twilight's fading will you lay here and fade with me?
All these lost days
All these lost days
Are these out last days together?
This city knows no names,
I'v been looking for a heart in this heartless place
that's just made of mistakes, turn me off but don't turn
away
I know your mind is made and I'm still braying for a
shade of grey
but if something pure remains let's stay lost, let's stay
Oh desire, you built a fire in me
you're been drawing houses on your mattress and your
sheets with the hope it won't be long until it's all the
metaphor we need. and hung about your parents' dresser
was a portrait of the sea and all the months you second-
guessed their love and looked for it in me. lying in the
road with everyone you know wrapped around your wrists,
filling in the holes. the drugs are homeless ghosts
looking for someone to haunt, to be their host puppet
stage to act on. you say, "all i want is some concern or
someone to care for me." you raise your cup, say, "here's
to all the months you never noticed anything." a
blindfold, a hundred knotted ropes, your hands are
forming fists but there's nothing there to hold. filling
up bottles with dirty roof-touched rain and lining them
against the porch's edge and whispering as you say, "if
winter comes before i find someone to cover up this
stain, i'll lie down and cover it myself but never get up
again." now that you're a ghost, you're leaving little
notes taped up to the bricks, these sad and somber poems.
with ribbons of the palest yellow guaze i'll decorate
your dreams. and tie a knot or make a bow across any
planets are drifting as you lay with your eyes closed
sifting through the ground where the corn grows,
levitating from the inside out, your skin is shaking,
you're moving your mouth but no words come out. no words
come out. your pores are they leaking the taste of a corn
field where a jet plane collides with my windshield
everytime i think of you? i've only wanted to lay next to
you with no words allowed. no words allowed. when we're
buried underground meet me in the dead people's lounge.
my skeleton bones will still want to be with our skeleton
bones all peaceful and perfect. we won't make a sound. we
won't make a sound. sixty years later and so far from
Iowa, the boy in the field never dreamed that someday i
would, after all these years and these miles, fall in
love with his grandchild. i fell in love with his child.
The street, the village green, the sleeping bakery
dreams with subway steam beneathe the balcony.
Let's flood the streets with chemistry all around this
town.
I have been the moon tonight
revolving around a planet
I don't even know if I can ever return to.
I broke all these roses for you
and I dropped your ring down the kitchen sink
so I wrote up this note just for you,
it's an apology in invisible ink.
Let's flood the streets with chemistry
all around this town.
I have been the moon but I'd
trade the quiet sky for a hungry cry
that I'd have no reply to ever return to you.
I leave clues where nobody sees,
secret thoughts on secret streets.
Dead balloons and a pair of wings.
I have been an ocean tide
a sailor's goodbye whisper in the night
i believe in outer space with radio towers and super
powers where the car in the drive way will be that of a
lover you have waited your life over for who's now
climbing the stairs to your door. i believe in a quite
place where mothers and daughters will lay by the water
and out in the landscape, all the love makers undressing
in freezing cold weather, they wont even mind the winter,
and sung through a megaphone, a lullaby gentle and strong
that reaches to planets unknown, that reaches out to
gallaxies far off. and the radio kids embrace with head
phones the size of their faces, they believe in an outer
space. they found what they believe in and it's right now
and it's instant and it's far away and it's distant. and
tears of white and grey fall upon your handle-bars and
mix in with the rain. oh what a day. you'd never seen a
brighter star, you'd never be the same. cause when we
touch, the shadow of a bicycle is no more beautiful than
us. so at dusk, meet me on old summer road in the autumn
cold to talk. kid genius, you built me a radio, said when
i feel alone, turn it on, and i'll find you there
somewhere with a tinfoil smile or like a star. with no
one ever there you'd laugh each time they didn't care but
now your sides ache and i came too late. with glitter in
your eyes you'd laugh each time you would've cried but
now your sides ache. you laughed until the tears came.
and now you've gone away, and in a little room i dream of
you and the picture in my brain doesn't fade like the
circles of a radio signal float out into space. and
before you lfet you came and hung a string of lights
around my bike as i slept. a sweet planet where fireflies
zoom like a hundred moons around your room in orbit is my
wish, and a ten-foot-tall mirror-ball hung from city
hall. and good magic. my constellation kid, i plotted the
routes you'd traveled through and the line i drew
connnecting it made a clear image of a lightening bold
through your childhood home, like the stories told on
your wrist. tears of white and grey. i'll never see a
We're the silence that wakes your day
We're the son of your neighbor's [Incomprehensible]
We're the signs across the street
Where the lane becomes an avenue
Oh, we're right under your nose
We're the lovers that you don't know
Baby, we go and you follow
We are the lovers, the lovers you don't know
We're the lovers that you don't know
We're the son of your neighbor's [Incomprehensible]
We're the signs across the street
Where the lane becomes an avenue
Oh, we're right under your nose
We're the lovers that you don't know
Baby, we go and you follow
We are the lovers, the lovers you don't know
Oh, we're right under your nose
We're the lovers that you don't know
Baby, we go and you follow
i drove alone to Buffalo and scratched a heart around
your name on every rest stop vending machine i passed
along the way..
(i'd taken speed for days)
i took picture from the car window, these colored blurs
of time, and left them for you by the pay phones because
i can't call or write. it's just been too much time. the
road was without winter glow just dreary landscape and
the whimper of the radio and a rubberbanded picture of
your face around an old mix tape you'd made. i still
think i'm going home, i packed my things in crooked
lines, and took a pill i nicknamed hope to change this
mood of mine. like a mocking dog and pony show in the
back rooms of my mind, like a swim in the undertow, i
can't see it but i sure feel it all right. i miss you
I said wait in the garden,
then I left you a lion, I know.
I said stay with the lion,
she's tame and she's trying. I know.
And it wasn't so.
I am what I don't know.
I am sorry though.
I said I'll be a bird,
and sing every word I know.
I said aw who could I hurt,
just a sweet singing bird. I know.
And it wasn't so.
I am what I don't know.
I am sorry though.
I said meet in the square,
there'll be vandals there but I won't.
I said my heart is your home,
there's no guard, there's no moat at all.
And it wasn't so.
I am what I don't know.
You sent me pictures of your neck.
How did you want me to react?
Oh, did you want me to respond?
Look, we can sleep anyway you want,
with my arms around your arms,
or I can sleep out in the car.
I got hung up on the wrong hook.
I'm tired of knocking wood
and not getting let in.
Your eyes are two deep pools of mud.
Maybe I got stuck.
Baby I got stuck.
My arms are tired, my throat is sore,
you're the only soldier fighting in this war
and I'm the fool still cheering you on.
The poems on the pages that you skipped,
they're just meaningless winglessness,
forget that they exist.
Now I'm sure you're keeping score.
You're the same trick I keep falling for,
the hurricane that hit my heart.
I missed the last turn before the interstate,
and the right words, but all too late
and you're doing great at moving on.
See, hidden in the pages of my notes
is a letter that I wrote to you, but never sent,
all our saucers have broke in this little rocket home,
where we sleep like full-grown ghosts of twelve-year-
olds. and i'm waiting on you, Love. i got my heart all
set up, like a tug boat toy i drag along. a tug boat toy
i drag along. last night when i undressed, i drew a
lighthouse on my chest, and said a prayer for it, by
morning to have sunk in. and for a place we could talk,
some stoop or some parking lot with a couple cinder
blocks to sit on. your handwriting is an even mix of your
parents' influence. i hope i see it again. so i wait on
the porch, hold this memory up like a torch. and i think
of a friend, draft a letter in my head. and her image
clings like a cast to heal some fractured past. to heal
my past. to heal my past. your handwriting is an even mix
the chemicals in my head i feel them sloshing an
swishing. i'm ok i keep my eyes closed wishing. there's
letters written but no letter sending. are you going to
treat people like they're never ending? are you going to
be ok or just keep pretending? moving my mouth over your
mason jar, tracing the space where your lips were. pinky
to thumb on my lover's hand, touch me as much as you
possibly can. i know i fell in love the way you crossed
your legs. afternoon on a quiet day. i think about when
you'll be forty. and maybe you'll have kids then, they'd
be really lucky. a lover a table a kitchen a tele. i'm
half paper airplane on my mother's side. but half isn't
enough to ever learn to fly. problems at home i've always
been asked. and, have you found yourself a safe place
yet? i say i can't move out, my home is my head. the
chemicals in my head i feel them sloshing and swishing.
i'm ok i keep my eyes closed wishing. there's letters
written but no letter sending. are you going to treat
people like they're never ending? are you going to be ok?
i slept next to your broken wrist and dreamt i was a vine
that grew out of a lovers' kiss and wrapped around your
spine. will you stay in my life? i wish we were tied
together sometimes. entwined by a family line. i wish i
was your sister sometimes like tonight. i'd dry your
eyes, you'd cough and then smile and say you'd be all
right. will you be all right? i'd trace the tatoo on the
back of your neck, there's a picture drawn there of the
place you left, whre you cannot see it but you can't
forget. it's there permanently like a badge of regret.
there's a row of ocean shells where there should be a
garden. one for each whispered word you could tell me,
one for each secret. so on shell stars in a dirt sky, i
wish you'd trade your secrets for mine. i'd plant them
and in time flowers would bloom and burst through the
room where we'd lie, they'd cover our eyes, i'd ve that
vine, the sun would shine in an endless spingtime. but
for now the flower pots only hold cigarette-butts.
there's a headstone above the nights we talked. there's a
different name whispered in your yard, but it sounds the
same as the one you want. and now i feel so overwhelmed,
i had to sit out by myself on the curb beside your house,
with my collar in my mouth. and the feelings that i felt,
i had to lay them all out in chalk-writing on the ground,
for you to step around. and the rain that ends the
drought and would've let our seeds sprout will just wash
out in the school yard, building a tomb for the beautiful
skeleton asleep in your parents' room. and you couldn't
find anyone to talk to so your heart was broken and
nobody knew until the doctors opened you and what they
found was the two halves beating separately and orbiting
around your body with energy that sprung forth from the
ground. your body's made of energy that comes from the
ground. there's a black bird sitting on your bones,
perched above your rib cage whistling the tones of a sad
organ pumping the only way it knows, like the sound of
ghosts thumping when the winter wind blows all those
voices coming quickly and rocketing around to make your
madness silky soft and white as down. with their cedar-
scented sadness and dressing gowns, they'll dry your
cheeks with the torn sleeves of their faded dressing
gowns. and how your love is like a vulture. and now it's
circling around and it makes the sweetest sound, "i will
be wanted. i will be wanted." and it feeds off what is
dead. how your love is like a vulture it feeds off what
is dead. and now it's circling around your head, how your
love is like a vulture, it feeds off what is dead. i will
be honest. i will be honest. i've not forgotten what i
said, come and find me when you're dead. my heart is
haunted. my heart is haunted 'cause now you're hanging
around, now you're hanging around in the hereafter.
happily ever after this, i said your name and blew a
kiss. goodnight my love, remember this, you'll always be
the one i miss. broken into shards just out of the womb,
It was the last day of summer
It was the first of a new romance
He walked into her on the corner
She said, I don't dance
He said, Baby let me teach you
She said, O.K., when?
He said, How can I reach you baby
I'd really like to see you again
He picked her up on a Friday night
He took her for a bite to eat
His heart was beating and his hands were shaking
She thought he was sweet
And he stood on her shoes on the dance floor
Well, they were doing it cheek to cheek
And he walked her home and he kissed her
He was walking on air all week
Well, they couldn't stand to be apart
They couldn't leave one another alone
Her mama used to say, It's getting late sweetheart
It's time that boy went home
And upstairs papa kissed mama
And she gave him a sweet caress
He said, Here's to the two young lovers
Let's wish 'em every happiness
It was the last day of summer
They came walking home hand in hand
They went and told her mama
They showed her the wedding band
Mama cried and poured the wine
Papa just said God Bless
Now, here's to the two young lovers
i called your name on the greyest day. you're the only
one who ever listened anyway. and it taught me something
i guess i already knew. i still want you. cause we
touched like my dream come true, that the tree beside my
father's hosue would bloom and fill his yard up with its
sweet perfume and hide the scars i carved in its arms for
you. i make mistakes, then i'm on my way. lock him out
and the dog will finally stray, join the vandals, they
just want to be listened to. they just want proof. but i
have been a liar and a fool. i can forget anyting i want
to except for the image of you in your bedroom where your
body lies but your eyes can't hide the truth. the night i
left, come on, you were grateful for the news. you never
wept, just undressed and slept til noon. a secret kept it
a lover left unmoved, and so i lose. i can't balance my
brain, its like a tightrope come loose. i'm tied to the
train tracks like a desperate cartoon. or i'm bare and
i'm blank, if i could pray i would thank saint jude. a
Look into the mirror
Do I like my own reflection
Not the way my face is looking
But the motives for my actions
I can con my friends and family
But the truth is ever-lurking
Gotta face myself forever
My decisions, my endeavors
(Chorus)
In another world I could run away
Not worry, not care
Not bother, not dare
I could stand here and just stare
And when I'm interacting
Am I sincere, am I humble
Do I take the time to reason
Lend a hand when someone stumbles
I can sing these songs, be happy
But the sadness always lingers
Find the passion that will feed me
Open my eyes
When I see you standing by my side
With hope and kisses in my heart
Chorus
I opened my eyes seeing you sitting on my lap
Oh, baby.....Oh, baby
what are we doing tonight
Oh, baby.....Oh, baby
In my eyes what I can see
With flames in the darkness, with you by my side
My, love inside...
With hope and kisses in my heart
dolphin eyes, i owe you my life. i filled a thermos up
with turpentine. my super duper sleep inducer. my extra-
strength pain reducer. and if you hadn't come around i'd
have made it underground. but with dolphin eyes and a
sigh that smiles, you turned the jet plane around three
thousand miles. our younger days you'd come crawling to
my crib to find your mother's name scratched into my
wrist. and if you hadn't come around i'd have scratched
all the life out. dolphin eyes dolphin eyes the only boy
who who will ever save me has a space cadet sister who
sometimes barely even flies. and has dolphin eyes. the
neighborhood kids watched as you and i built a fortress
of leaves, trees and sky. and when the sunset cast its
colors on across the back yard and the front lawn we made
an effigy of light and were martyrs to the night. and
I've been drinking
And I've been thinking of you
Now I know
I know the snow will let me know
I've been trying
But I've been lying to you
Now I know
I know the time will get me through
But any time I let you know
It's just a time to let me know
What it's all about
Rain falls for wind
You're only, ever on my mind
Rain falls for wind
You're only, ever on my mind
I've been drinking
And I've been thinking of you
Now I know
I know the snow will let me know
Rain falls for wind
You're only, ever on my mind
Rain falls for wind
You're only, ever on my mind
Rain falls for wind
You're only, ever on my mind
You never ever have the time
When I see you smile
Rain falls for wind
You're only ever on my mind
You never ever have the time
When I see you smile
I miss my sweetest friend
like a house on fire wants its ghosts back again.
We got all turned around, now let's turn ourselves in.
And so you know, you're always welcome home.
That door ain't ever gonna close,
and my heart ain't ever gonna close.
I've been wrestling horses to the ground.
I was the coldest gust of wind
and now the heart I belong in is frozen.
I've come scattered and unhinged,
oh where are my pacific oceans?
I've been wrestling horses to the ground.
I want to ride my bike out to Alaska.
I don't care what's there, I wanna see a moose.
Maybe I'll die out in Alaska.
Maybe I'll die beneathe the moon.
if you take this away i have no one to escort my fears
to the place i have built as my fear-fort. take this
away and i have no one to hope for, no reason to wait
through the winter's sad discourse. no moon-like escape
when the night needs a light source. the look on your
face when you loved what i stood for. your smell and
your taste like a note on the front door. a letter to
say i miss those sad arms of yours. so i lay in my room
and i dream of the colors that make water move and a
body discover why so many choose to lay with a lover.
because just when you think you're getting well you see
the ring around your heart is held by some sillouette
turned to walk away but you can tell had a lovely face.
remember the days when you stayed here long before i
had to erase all the pictures of horses you'd drawn on
the space between my night stand and headboard? so what
now, arrange in disappointment order old lovers' names
as a decorative border on a window pane while the days
just grow shorter? or are they the same and it's me
that grows colder? like a one kid army of the good
witch, all alone i raise my fist at night on my bike
around your neighborhood and shout, "make me pure, make
my heart good." well a vigil today is held in an
airport to remember and save a love that could not work
and that beautiful face i never did deserve. and the
ferns died away, the ones that we planted, too many
mistakes in the care that they wanted. just their
skeletons remain now the garden is haunted. and i'm
wasting away in Georgia but thank god New England's far
away, Massachusetts i once loved you but there's a
whole group of states now i dont want to set foot upon
where i found your diary's list of all the things you
never did that attic full of feelings hid when you were
such a shy kid. in bed do you lay under an afghan
humming and wait to find if the day ends without a
massive array of self-deprications? oh no wait, no it's
me who does that. oh no wait, wait it's me who does
I pull away from the city's jaws,
before they tear me to pieces,
and go on home to fall apart tonight.
Oh where you are tonight,
Oh is it far, tonight?
I wind through alleys and empty lots,
my endless arms are still reaching.
But it's your heart, you do with it what you want
tonight.
Now we're just feeding the cold
Now we're just starving the fever
Now my words just grow old
Baby where've you been sleeping?
Baby where've you been sleeping?
Your blankets look like ghosts out in the yar
where the willows are weeping.
The creases on your face from last night look like scars.
I feel everything in secret.
She shivers in the rain
It's the capital connecting with her veins
Stepping under statues and on trains
'Till we are under covers
She giggles like a child
With no sign of all the tension in her life
It's written on her T-shirt and in her eyes
That there is no other
'Cause we are the lovers, we are the lovers
We're different colours but we stand up as one
We are the lovers, we are the lovers
Two different colours but we stand up as one
All the silly things we do
Just remind me of the flippancy of youth
Kissing under statues, throwing food
And getting into trouble
She shivers in the cold
It's the capital connecting with her bones
Jumping into taxis, here we go
Yes there is no other
Cause we are the lovers, we are the lovers
We're different colours but we stand up as one
We are the lovers, we are the lovers
i'm leaving this city before i'm frozen, before i'm
stuck here right in place. the highway may be strewn
with sin, but it's proven again and again: it's the
only way i'm saved. oh, chicago, you're as cold as the
heart of the candidate the night of the inauguration.
and like him, i don't expect you'll ever understand my
situation. i know, like him, your heart don't break.
'cause he grins as he's promising the mess he's gonna
make. and then he offers you a handshake, saying, "no
blood on my hands today." but when he grins, you see
it's his teeth that are blood-stained.
you told me once you were complicated, but i never knew
with you what to believe. you said you never give your
tricks away for nothing and you always keep something
up your sleeve. you say, "this circus has three rings
and nobody gets in for free."
now your pretty eyes, don't blink or i've got nothing
to look for. your pretty hands, don't put 'em in your
pockets or i've got nothing to reach for. your pretty
lips, don't turn away. don't pretend you've got nothing
to say.
see, mama, she was a poet, and at night she'd recite
her best verse. but she said, "crumple this when i go
and throw it from the window of my speeding hearse." i
had it bad but you have it worse. i had it bad and you
have it worse. and she said, "go out now. go out now to
the streets, girl. you go out there, now. you write
your own life story. and you alone decide if it's gonna
be a magazine or poetry."
and your pretty eyes, don't blink or i've got nothing
to look for. your pretty hands, don't hide 'em in your
pockets or i've got nothing to reach for. your pretty
lips, don't turn away. don't pretend you've got nothing
to say. you've got a lot to say. you've got a lot to
say. you've got a lot to say.
and i wish, always, that i could thank you, but i guess
i just don't know how. 'cause you said the best thing i
could do for you is to take good care of myself.
and you became a ghost before you wanted and my heart
is the home you've haunted. and every time i hear the
sirens sing, i feel footsteps inside of me. like your
heart beating, like my heart beating, like your heart
I tried to catch a pigeon
I grabbed him then he slipped away
We had our fun together
On that sunny day
One day our candles died
And I fell in a hole of depression
I guess that one of us is running
In the wrong direction
But we can act like lovers on the sidewalk
Walking hand in hand and enjoying such a nice day
Like songbirds on the purple tree
With yellow crown and red fruit
Butterflies around me
I felt so sweet and tender
But then we just surrender
But we can act
I never thought I could forget to flatter
When everything is more important
More exciting than our dating
But we can act
But we can act fresh lovers on the sidewalk
Walking hand in hand and enjoying such a nice day
Like notes in perfect harmony
In such a pretty melody that lights fire inside me
But we can act like lovers on the first date
Chewing bubble gum
I never felt so carefree
Just for one day we could forget all the problems we had
Cause it's such a pretty sunny day
Underneath the starshine
where the while light glows
lovers in the skyline
cupid shoots his bow
one promise, true love forever
or one life calmed in wealth
to choose passion or stealth
(chorus)
in my heart, the love is in my heart
the dream beneath the sun
the lovers will be one
the night brings a sweet love caress,
a broken feeling possess
my heart in the doubt
that fills my distress
in every soul there is a light,
a dream that drives each fate
that just love celebrates.
Everywhere I go, in every face I see
The sign of love shining so brightly
Ohh, it's in the air, it's everywhere
I can feel it in my bones
People holding hands, making love
Really, really getting it on
I'm crazy about lovers, beautiful lovers
Yeah yeah lovers, beautiful lovers
Everywhere
And everywhere I go I hear people say
That they wouldn't mind checking it out
Ahh, getting on down
Don't you know that life can be beautiful
Life can be wonderful when you can always have
That special someone around?
And I'm crazy about lovers, ooh beautiful lovers
Don't you know that they're everywhere?
Lovers, beautiful lovers
Everywhere, everywhere
Everywhere, everywhere in the air
If you like romancing and you don't want no dancing
Then check this groove out baby, you'll see
It is the sweetest sugar that you'll ever taste
You gotta chase those blues, get over them
Don't stop now controlling them
Then you'll find you're shaking them
Get if all while you can have a ball
There's a feeling and it's catching
Look what's happening
Take a trip, make it hip, you might dig it
Lovers
Lovers
Lovers
Beautiful lovers
Everywhere

the trees reach like hands to the sky from the land, and
toward each other, too, they bend. i watch them from a
window like an old, grey, tired widow, who was married
once to the handsomest of plans. i'm gonna sit at a table
over Christmas with Rachel, and we're gonna laugh about
the town where we were born. maybe i just need a
vacation, this spring drive with me to Portland. the sun
will cast our shadows like arrows to the ocean and keep
us warm. keep us warm. so cheer up my dear, the sky's not
always clear. there needs to come a setting sun before
the night stars appear. and those tree skeletons know
that winter has begun but with it comes a new year. no
next year won't unravel like this last one did, we'll
travel out to the water every chance we get. cause this
dream's as good as dead if we only let it live here
behind our eyelids. so cheer up my dear, rub your eyes
clear. a song can't be sung until you breathe and fill
your lungs with the cold, dark air. and a banner can't be
hung until you've climbed the lowest rungs of the ladder
learning here. oh you remember how your parents clapped,
waved and smiled. every little thing made them proud when
you were a child. well now you've grown and you're the
coolest kid i know, but somehow they lost their interest
long ago. well cheer up my dear. i'll always be here. and
the sky above you, the kids our age line up to love you,
and you have nothing to fear. there's a sky above you,
the kids our age, we line up to love you. and you have
nothing to fear. ahhhhh.
I pull away from the city's jaws,
before they tear me to pieces,
and go on home to fall apart tonight.
Oh where you are tonight,
Oh is it far, tonight?
I wind through alleys and empty lots,
my endless arms are still reaching.
But it's your heart, you do with it what you want
tonight.
Now we're just feeding the cold
Now we're just starving the fever
Now my words just grow old
Baby where've you been sleeping?
Baby where've you been sleeping?
Your blankets look like ghosts out in the yar
where the willows are weeping.
The creases on your face from last night look like scars.
I feel everything in secret.
Where've you been sleeping?
I love her so much
From the taste of her kiss to her gentle touch
The way she whispers in my ear
Like there is no one else here
I'm so crazy for you baby
You know I wouldn't want anyone else cause you my lady
Bianca:
Are there words to describe
What I'm feelin' inside
Just to have you here with me
Is where, for the rest of my life, I'll wanna be
Boy I need you
One more night without you, I can't go through
Can I just have one more kiss
So I can remember this
I can't say a word
Cause I'm so crazy girl
Crazy for you
So crazy in love I don't know what to do
Nu Flavor & Bianca:
And for the rest of my life it'll be
Just you and me
Can this be
that your right here with me
We'll be together forever
All my life I've wanted someone like you
To walk in and say "Baby I Do"
And forever I will remember it all
And I'll never fall
For anyone but you
i had a passion for strangers and prescription
painkillers. now is that so bad? i do what i do, but i
don't do what you did. we got a wicked ignition, and the
devil makes three, i'm just trying to rev up my engine.
are you trying to punish me? i was born to a little dead
angel. she dressed my wounds in tape and paper. she said,
"does it still hurt real bad? i am where i am and you're
where you're at." it's like there's searchlights on
inside me, and when they sail past my eyes you can see
the flicker of something i've been trying to find. we
weren't here at the same time, she was leaving just as i
arrived. she touched my hand as she went past, and said,
"your heart is all you have. and if asking for directions
proves that you are lost, well how else you ever gonna
get where you want?" i look at all the things i purchased
when i was feeling worthless, but the stores become
cages, holding blank faces and time wated. and time is
passing, time is dying, time is history, and in all this
time, the clocks hands never once reached out for me. but
you can tell now that i'm tired, oh it's exhausting to be
so diligent in my vigilance, to have a heart that never
sleeps. so this lullaby for lonesome bella can never be
complete, i might close my eyes to dreaming, but i don't
miss a beat. like a soldier up all hours waiting for the
enemy, i'm always watching, always guarding, oh my heart
never sleeps.
We'll be lovers, lovers , lovers -- got to make you understand
We'll be lovers, lovers , lovers --I wanna hold you in my hand
We'll be lovers, lovers , lovers

In a fit of anger fueled by romance
She drug a key down the side of his Cadillac
Parked right outside the honky tonk
Jr. Wilson says he saw it all
In a fit of anger fueled by revenge
He ran off with her best friend
Just to make sure that she found out
He drove by her mama's with the windows down
It's always somethin'
If it ain't one thing it's another
All this cryin' and all this fightin'
Well, it makes you wonder why they call them loversIn a fit of anger at the Horseshoe Lounge
She took a swing and she knocked that hussy down
Wiped the cherry lip gloss of the back of her hand
Said, ";If you don't mind honey I'll have this dance";
It's always somethin'
If it ain't one thing it's another
All this cryin' and all this fightin'
Well, it makes you wonder why they call them lovers
In a fit of passion in that Cadillac
He said ";I love you baby"; and she took him back
It's been reported they were havin' a ball
Jr. Wilson says he saw it all
(Joan Jett/Kim Fowley)
I want something bad and nice - hot love
I want it nice from paradise - your love
All night long I'm chasing fast - true love
Make me scream, make it fast
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
Cold lovers fade away
I'm the one for you
You know what I say is true
I won't cry to tell you why
I know that you love me too
You do a 1, 2, 3, 4
Oh yeah come on nowI want a kiss wet and real - strong love
I wanna tell you how I feel - right now
All night long it rained and rained - my love
Make me scream hey what's your name?
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
Cold lovers fade away
I want to entertain you all, but the cameras overwhelm me
I've got stage fright
The whole town came out to see, a lonely boy
Set himself alight
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
I can't describe this brilliance, colour overwhelm,
Eyes on overload
Dull scream, piercing words of love,
Another body dumped, on the endless road
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
I know you've given up on me
I know you've given up
I know you've given up on me
I know you've given up
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
But you don't like boys and I don't like to beg
She shivers in the rain
It's the capital connecting with her veins
Stepping under statues and on trains
'Till we are under covers
She giggles like a child
With no sign of all the tension in her life
It's written on her T-shirt and in her eyes
That there is no other
'Cause we are the lovers, we are the lovers
We're different colours but we stand up as one
We are the lovers, we are the lovers
Two different colours but we stand up as one
All the silly things we do
Just remind me of the flippancy of youth
Kissing under statues, throwing food
And getting into trouble
She shivers in the cold
It's the capital connecting with her bones
Jumping into taxis, here we go
Yes there is no other
Cause we are the lovers, we are the lovers
We're different colours but we stand up as one
We are the lovers, we are the lovers
Two different colours but we stand up as one
There was a field in my old town
Where we always played hand in hand
The wind was gently touching the grass
We were so young, so fearless
Then I dreamt over and over
Of you holding me tight under the stars
I made a promise to my dear lord
I will love you forever
Time has passed
So much has changed
But the field remains in my heart
Oh, where are you?
I need to tell you I still love you
So I reach out for you
You fly around me like butterfly
Your voice still echoes in my heart
You are my true love
There was a field in my old town
Where in spring all flowers blossomed wide
We were chasing butterflies
Hand in hand 'til close of day
dream lover come and find me i've been here i've been
hiding. we'll make love like memories of a kitchen in the
house where you grew up, with your brother in the tub,
mother lying down but now you're wishing they would leave
so you could cry, your squid suit only isolates you. i
wish i had their eyes. i'd make them see how beautiful it
is. dream lover come and find me i've been here i've just
been hiding. we'll make love to remedy all the
Christmases spent in front and throwing up the years of
hurt and days of drugs and now they want you up for a
family portrait. if they would leave then you could cry,
your squid suit only isolates you. i wish i had their
eyes. i'd make them see how beautiful it is. dream lover
come and find me i've been here i've just been hiding.
despite our mistakes we still deserve this. like
highschoolers in camouflage, a pain so big it forms a
pond, but year from now the pond becomes a forest. if
they would leave then you could cry. your squid suit only
isolates you. i wish i had their eyes. i'd make them see
how beautiful it is. and i wrote by their portrait of the
sea, "i'll still lover you when the ocean tugs you from
me." i'll still love you i'll still love you. i still
oh ramona, oh you know oh you know what i've done. i
sewed a map into your coat of all my lonesome, broken,
frozen floods. and i'd never seen, i'd never seen your
eyes so shut. i've never been good with emotions, so i
sealed them off into these frozen floods. but i can't
skate away on them. i slide and slip up on the surface.
while underneath is frozen, swollen mud. and all the
things i'm still afraid of. i'd let it all, i'd let it
all go numb but i'll be up all night until i know you're
all right. you set this town on fire, you set it alight.
oh i'll be up all night until i know you're all right, ou
baby, i know i am crazy and it pains me to find you
spending all your time talking me down from heights and
watching for warning signs, looking into overcast eyes
that predict the coming storm and beg you to keep me
warm. they warn here comes another night of holding me
while i cry until the morning, so lock the doors, draw
the blinds, bring the furniture inside and wait for it to
start pouring, cause it's gonna come down in torrents.
somewhere and somehow i found you and suckered you into
this one-sided relationship, it was a dirty trick, the
truths i distorted, a simple bait-and-switch, a failing
circus of perforated promises like i am improving, it
will be worth it, i am improving, it will be worth it.
but it's nice of you to wait, while i make all my
mistakes. i can't say how long it will take, there's no
end in sight, i'm afraid. but the kindness you've
displayed without a hint of impatience, i pray that it
infiltrates my madness and calms all the mayhem. the city
wears rain like a veil, and i fail to meet her glance,
just the wail of an ambulance sails down the back of my
neck and leaves through my fingertips. everything's
coming up pale. i feel my body grey. i need perpetual
all your lovers form a circle that sparkles in the
street. they hold their hands up to the sky in a gesture
of defeat. if they could find out what it is that could
make you feel complete, they would hold it to the sky as
an offering. oh they remember how you came around that
night in summer rain. they held your face at arm's length
and said the stars spelled our your name. but you just
stared up at the starry sky and said, "what's the use?
another point of light that i can look up to? i've seen
it every night, it offers nothing new. no answers. no
solutions. just an endless muse. these stars and
satellites we just pour our wishes through. but i need
something here that i can hold onto". so your buried
seeds in handmade graves, in little rows they were layed,
then wondered why no flowers came to grow out of their
resting places. and also you recall wanting not to rise
so you wouldn't fall. but it doesn't make us whole to
stay unbroken. so now we've got a plan, we'll only fall
into good hands that will lift us til we stand and let us
hold to them. so i'll think of you tonight from where i'm
laying, on the couch at my friend's house where i am
staying. a thousand miles away from you, my darling. i
wish i could hold you tight, it's cold and starry. but
i'll look out of the window and come calling to tell you
the highway is a sorry scene. i'm freezing in the
passenger seat. i didn't want to leave so i just kept on
drinking. at first we were nervous, but you say all the
words that change the way my world turns, then it's bye
bye, baby, bye bye bye. parked now in a motel lot, i'm
staring through the window fog at some new day that i
don't want when i could be waking to your dawn. but i'll
go back to Boston, a silent apartment, but for sirens,
alarms, and little sad songs. your fucked up family
history makes me wish i was a transparency, i'd move
about your life unseen and make sure you were treated
right. cause your eyes flash with kerosene, and your lips
are horses running. oh let me be the ground beneath, when
we kiss you can run away on me. cause my heart's been
humming, and reaching for something to keep it running
when the drives are so long. and you brought boxes, you
brought crates of feelings i'll have to orchestrate, but
i'll make room and find a pace, even if you never meant
to stay. cause there's space here where i sing, out in
the junkyard of emotion, where i pour myself over
everything, i'll pour myself over your bare skin like
boiling water, this orphan-eyed daughter, this cannon-
the trees reach like hands to the sky from the land, and
toward each other, too, they bend. i watch them from a
window like an old, grey, tired widow, who was married
once to the handsomest of plans. i'm gonna sit at a table
over Christmas with Rachel, and we're gonna laugh about
the town where we were born. maybe i just need a
vacation, this spring drive with me to Portland. the sun
will cast our shadows like arrows to the ocean and keep
us warm. keep us warm. so cheer up my dear, the sky's not
always clear. there needs to come a setting sun before
the night stars appear. and those tree skeletons know
that winter has begun but with it comes a new year. no
next year won't unravel like this last one did, we'll
travel out to the water every chance we get. cause this
dream's as good as dead if we only let it live here
behind our eyelids. so cheer up my dear, rub your eyes
clear. a song can't be sung until you breathe and fill
your lungs with the cold, dark air. and a banner can't be
hung until you've climbed the lowest rungs of the ladder
learning here. oh you remember how your parents clapped,
waved and smiled. every little thing made them proud when
you were a child. well now you've grown and you're the
coolest kid i know, but somehow they lost their interest
long ago. well cheer up my dear. i'll always be here. and
the sky above you, the kids our age line up to love you,
and you have nothing to fear. there's a sky above you,
the kids our age, we line up to love you. and you have
Baby, take off your shoes.
You and me, we ain't hardly through.
Until you treat yourself as well as I treat you,
baby, take off your shoes.
Why you tryin' to save me from you?
Can't you see I'm prepared for the blue
of your eyes when they find your heart's been a zoo?
Unlock the cages, set those wild animals loose.
Baby stay another night.
I was born to love you, I wasn't born to fight.
And you touched me that first time
like you'd known me all my life,
so baby, stay another night.
Let's don't say goodbye.
I don't wanna lose you,
I don't care who sees me cry,
But if you want that I should leave,
no I won't go asking why. But don't say it,
No don't say it, baby, don't say it. No, don't say it,
baby.
Aw babe, let's don't say goodbye.
i love you baby but i know you don't understand, when the
good Lord made me, he made me sad. the best i've felt in
my whole life is when i was in your hands, but you
deserve better than what i have to give. we slept under
your mother's quilt and drew pictures on papers bags of
birds we'd seen in Tennessee the time we lost our map.
but there's bears in the balcony in the drunken dream i
had. they climbed up there, they came for me and left
only the whiskey glass. i love you baby but i know you
don't understand, when the highway takes me i ain't
coming back. the best i've slept in a long time is when i
was in your bed, but tonight i'll whisper goodbye as you
lay there. if they send the wolves, i'll join the wolves,
and i'll return someday with my teeth sharper and my
blood hotter. i'll be the dog by your grave, with a
hanging tongue and a rib cage and a chewed up tail,
howling on my last exhale, "an army of lovers cannot
the bed will be there when i get home, but will you? like
a spool come undone, everything with us is loose. hold my
face and pull me to our shoulder. today i've gotten
older, today i've gotten older. i tried to take my mind
off things but i'm leaving now, i'm leaving now instead.
cause i don't trust that there won't be another string of
manic freak-outs, if i stick around. come on i know
myself by now. it's not an easy realization to come to,
i'm not the best thing for you. i'm not the best thing
for you. so i will send myself to sleep for you, and
dream of a door that you'll step trhough. and i will sit
here and drink for you, cause i can't think of anything
else left to do. come on, i know myeslf by now. come on i
know myself that well. the bed is soft but my ears are
ringing, and you took off while i was still singing. i
just wanted to be close to what you keep hid from those
who don't love you. your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, your
eyes, tonight could bring a dead deer back to life. and

Hold you tight all through the night
I'm gonna make you feel alright
i keep it written on a locket and pinned into my jacket
pocket, these silver shapes who spell your name loom
around. and i sing it to myself so i don't forget the
sound. i took a chance on highway driving with the
sadness packed in to the side of me that planted pills in
the beautiful garden i grew of love for you, oh how i
watered it with tears so blue. see i knew a girl who
never cried, so i painted my room the color of her eyes.
like a fortress, or a blown up portrait in blue, or some
strange womb or tearless tomb. it's easy now just forget
about it. i start again every day without it. with a new
lease on life, i'll forget about it. but it's all around
still. a new lease on life, i've forgotten, i've off-ed
it. i can see you through the window light. me and the
shadow-kids go dumpster diving all for nothing, we'll
still go hungry tonight. the world outside is silver-
white. but it's easy now to forget about it. i start
again every day without it. i've a new lease on life, i'd

oh silent night, oh holy night. the nights when you'd lie
down beside me, and i'd be a beggar by a well. i'd let it
all fall down, but i've never known a sense of home so
well. in a sea foam covered vacant lot, i'll lay it out
to fade off. oh silent night, oh holy night, the nights i
hung around outside til closing time, to drive you back
to your house. i'd let it all fall down, but longing's
sound is dog-howl loud. and all the pretty things you
said are still living in my head, but i know the silent
night is dead cause it's ghost comes back and visits, and
sits on the edge of my bed. yeah he just sits there, he
i drove alone to Buffalo and scratched a heart around
your name on every rest stop vending machine i passed
along the way..
(i'd taken speed for days)
i took picture from the car window, these colored blurs
of time, and left them for you by the pay phones because
i can't call or write. it's just been too much time. the
road was without winter glow just dreary landscape and
the whimper of the radio and a rubberbanded picture of
your face around an old mix tape you'd made. i still
think i'm going home, i packed my things in crooked
lines, and took a pill i nicknamed hope to change this
mood of mine. like a mocking dog and pony show in the
back rooms of my mind, like a swim in the undertow, i
can't see it but i sure feel it all right. i miss you

I want something bad and nice - hot love
I want it nice from paradise - your love
All night long I'm chasing fast - true love
Make me scream, make it fast
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
Cold lovers fade away

All night long it rained and rained - my love
Make me scream hey what's your name?
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
did you sleep ok? i drew your name above me in the air,
and left my longing there. did you never know? oh how my
room just turned cold, and the night, and the road, and
the sky behind my home. is all the world afloat in the
bubbles you blow? am i just made of soap and the breath
of your throat? (when i hold to you it's like letting go
of a balloon.) my darling your gums are soft as
rhodedendrun buds. i want to become the sigh in your
lungs. so when you breathe in, just breathe me in. is all
the world afloat in your sleepy little boat? will i cough
and choke chasing a bottle with a note? when you breathe
chorus

chorus
where yo0u're at girl? where you're out?
when your body's down know how to act girl
they are running back ever since you gave me that girl
missing pretty one but none of them is that girl
and i take her to all my favorite places
keep her tight to my arm
the other can't come close cause she is the one
i grab her and never let her go
Let's take our time and concentrate
The mood is right for living, ooh I can't wait
I've waited so long to be with you this special way
Don't be afraid, afraid to stay
And share your love with me this way
I understand baby it's your very first time
I'll be gentle with you baby, it's gonna be alright
And so if we're gonna be together tonight
I'll be good to you baby, sweet to you lady
Guess what we're gonna be tonight
Lovers
Baby, let me be your lover
Lovers
Let me be the only one
Lovers
Baby let me be your lover
Lovers
Let me be the one
Don't let your thoughts get in the way
The time is right for love, it's not too late
The feeling's so strong to be as one this special way
Just take my hand, I'll lead the way
I need you so much, baby won't you stay
I understand baby it's your very first time
I'll be gentle with you baby, it's gonna be alright
And so if we're gonna be together tonight
I'll be good to you baby, sweet to you lady
Guess what we're gonna be tonight
I wanna hold you
I wanna touch you
I wanna squeeze you
I'll never tease you
Hold you tight all through the night
I'm gonna make you feel alright
Shit
See you everyday on the train
Be all to yourself
Read your paper, your book
Shit
That's cool though
I'mma ask you what's your honeycode
On my way to work,
We take the same train
Everyday I see ya
She never sits down
Shawty holds the poem
With one hand, greeting the deli news
Been this to each day, nice shoes
I play it off like I don't know this
Oblivious to all, so I fix this shit here
Of course, God bless you, thank you
Daydreaming, how I love to spank you
Finally I come, Jacqueline
Attraction on my part?
Most definitely!
Trended black sweat back and forth
This one lock in eyes, now she needs to stop
I'm at a loss for girls, vision in my dome
Aphrodite, stock comes, I move slightly
Just before she exit
Have a good day
In the back of my mind, I'm sure, really
Newbury
Once they were Lovers
But now they're not friends
Shes found another
He says its the end
To think they once tore down
A wall for a door
Now they don't speak anymore
So he walks the streets
The few night he can stand
Drinkin' her memory away when he can
Friend's once would reach out
To them from the shore
But now they don't cry anymore
How does it all come to happen
That's not what lovin' is for
And if I thought it was
I would leave here in the mornin'
I'd sooner sleep on the floor
Oh, when will learn really
What loving is
It's not what you get in return
But what you give
To think they once tore down
A wall for a door
In a fit of anger fueled by romance
She drug a key down the side of his Cadillac
Parked right outside the honky tonk
Jr. Wilson says he saw it all
In a fit of anger fueled by revenge
He ran off with her best friend
Just to make sure that she found out
He drove by her mama's with the windows down
It's always somethin'
If it ain't one thing, it's another
All this cryin' and all this fightin'
Well, it makes you wonder, why they call them lovers
In a fit of anger at the Horseshoe Lounge
She took a swing and she knocked that hussy down
Wiped the cherry lip gloss of the back of her hand
Said, "If you don't mind, honey, I'll have this dance"
It's always somethin'
If it ain't one thing, it's another
All this cryin' and all this fightin'
Well, it makes you wonder, why they call them lovers
In a fit of passion in that Cadillac
He said, "I love you, baby", and she took him back
It's been reported they were havin' a ball
Baby I'm coming to you
To your love that never knew
It's dying we are living through
All is built to be pulled down
And I know in the last round
I'll fall for my tricks too
Baby I'm coming to you
But I'm long stuck in a queue
To have it more and have it all
And I hunted your face
And I shot you in place
You made no sound, I left you sprawled
There's a whisper in the noise
I can't leave it be
I practice slavery of the choice
It feels so free
What to do my pretty one
When all the love of years begone
Knows just shit of who am I
And on it crucified
And in the search for sky
It's my tears I'm blinded by
I tried to break through velvet nights
Through the skin, beyond the sight
Tear the patchwork, understand
But none did ever stay
Who'd die to tread a way
From your sheets to promised land
There's a whisper in the noise
I can't leave it be
I practice slavery of the choice
It feels, it tastes so free
Words that pass and words so cool
Are just re-living me
Shiny, loud, they ridicule
LOVERS
I will tell a story of two lovers / old forgotten tale from days gone by /
heard a thousand times from many others / but so… it’s a story of my life
I was traveling with a band of Gypsies / singing songs of lost and found
love / when I saw him walking in the distance / innocent and tender as a
dove /
Wish I could say – Don cry / Our love will never die / but every time I look
into your eyes / I see a starry night / I’m on a lonely ride / a windy road as
long as our lives /
I invited him to share the fire / silent, we watched the snowfall / then he
touched me with his sunny smile / reaching down to my very soul /
I forgot about the world around me / led into the slow dance of love /
praying for the night to last forever / knowing in the morning we will part
Wish I could say – Don cry / Our love will never die / but every time I look
into your eyes / I see a starry night / I’m on a lonely ride / a windy road as
long as our lives /
Wish I could say – Don cry / Our love will never die / but every time I look
into your eyes / I see a starry night / I’m on a lonely ride / a windy road as

mason jar, tracing the space where your lips were. pinky
to thumb on my lover's hand, touch me as much as you
possibly can. i know i fell in love the way you crossed
your legs. afternoon on a quiet day. i think about when
you'll be forty. and maybe you'll have kids then, they'd
be really lucky. a lover a table a kitchen a tele. i'm
half paper airplane on my mother's side. but half isn't
enough to ever learn to fly. problems at home i've always
been asked. and, have you found yourself a safe place
yet? i say i can't move out, my home is my head. the
chemicals in my head i feel them sloshing and swishing.

Sit down and listen 'cause I've got good news for you
It was in the papers today
Some physician had made a discovery
This' what she had to say:
(Oooh you know that)
She said that every result she had backed her
Claiming that love's a longevity factor
So lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice
Lovers live a little longer, baby
What a feeling when I hold you tight
Lovers live a little longer, yeah
I can imagine, I'll see in my fantasy
I'll enjoy every day
Making love is a dynamite drug, baby
So why don't we start right away
(Ahh, please don't wait)
I don't care if they're watching 'cause listen
We've got a reason for each time we're kissing
'Cause lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice
Lovers live a little longer, baby
What a feeling when I hold you tight
Lovers live a little longer, yeah
I just don't care if they're watching 'cause listen
We've got a reason for each time we're kissing
'Cause lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice
Lovers live a little longer, baby
What a feeling when I hold you tight
Lovers live a little longer, yeah
Lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
We could have been lovers.
An oasis in grey.
You know that we need some part.
Why didn't you say?
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the dead-time...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the shade!
You know that we need you
You know that we care
But your contribution...
Is fragile and rare.
And we're,
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the dead-time...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the shade,
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the shade.
“It'll take time to tell. Do you know what fell?
I'm going to sing to you.”
AH! AH!
We know that we're lovers.
We know that we care.
We show our attentions.
We stripped it so bare!
And we're,
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the dead-time...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the shade...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
Of the dead-time...
Lovers, lovers, lovers...
I wanna hide from the sun, wanna end this chase, I do
I wanna take off and run without a single trace, I do
I suppose this time it'd be worth to stick here for you
I've been walking alone in this lonely room, haven't you
I've been watching the stars and their heartache gloom, haven't you
Now you've come into my life and I'm not sure what to do
I've coached myself to run from the likes of you
This wall is falling, you came without a warning
You came out of the blue, you tore my curfew
Your eyes they floor me, you came with out a warning
You came to my rescue
Just like lovers do
For seven weeks it's all roses and no thorns, so good
You drown me in posies of all sorts, all good
And we're so in love that I feel like I was reborn
As you make me part of your life, sentiments are sworn
This wall is falling, you came without a warning
You came and made us two, but the change, it came too soon
Your eyes ignore me, I came without a warning
It soon all felt untrue
Who the hell I cry
I'm getting way too tired
Too many times I've come across this same old plight
Just another barfly, just another smooth eyed sly
Why to cry? Why?
This wall is falling, you left without a warning
You left with your tattoos, in my heart there's one for you
Your eyes ignore me, you left without a warning
You left out of the blue
This wall is falling, I should've seen it coming
I should've seen it coming, it never lasts, I knew
Your eyes they bore me, look at me I'm running
I'm running away from you
Through the air and time
We came to see her
Where the sun collides
She carried us all...
For the first time
I wish she'd come
(through the air)
I wish she'd call
And to blame our take
She'll prevail in us all
For the first time
I wish she'd come
For the first time
I wish she'd come
The more you wait...
The more you burn...
Before we break...
Once they were lovers, but now they are not friends
She's found another, he says it's the end
To think they once tore down a wall of a door
Now they don't speak anymore
So he walks the streets, the few nights he can stand
Drinking her memory away when he can
Friends once would reach out to them from the shore
Now they don't try anymore
How does it all come to happen
That's not what love is for and if I thought it was
I would leave you in the morning
I'll sooner sleep on the floor
Oh, when will we learn really what loving is
Not what you get in return, but what you give
To think they once tore down a wall of a door
I keep falling down over imaginary women
charades and dumb parades
of some malaise with kindred spirits.
is there some trick to finding out the truth?
Confucius say I'm so confused.
I keep fawning for the light of tired television.
I keep dog-pawing at the lap of indecision.
All this silence is for you.
All this silence is for you.
You're a jungle baby, I'm just a little panther.
You're a puzzle baby, I'm just a little answer.
If there's angst in my homage you'll be the first to
hear it.
If you're locked in my collage there's no reason to
fear it.
It just grew and grew and grew and grew.
Like a vine I grew and grew to you.
I should find the woods, my mind is good if I can clear
I'll be understood under the hood of leaves and lyrics.
My desire grew and grew and grew.
And now it's just too huge for you.
You're a party baby, I'm just a little dancer.
You're a puzzle baby, I'm just a little answer.
I can see you underneathe the fascade.
You're a dark night baby, I'm just a little lantern.
If love was lost at sea then mourn its passing carefully
Some day when your heart subsides
Then give into the open tide
I set you apart; you are a girl of mystery
I set you apart from time and history
Waiting all her life,
You have been spending your days all alone
Like a widow grieving
You hold onto the promise that you will see him again
Like lovers in the evening
Look softly into her eyes; a figure of bluish green
You are familiar as a lullaby,
or an actress on the silver screen
For the open and great unknown,
You're leaving your heart at home
Cruel and vast black waters,
You leave behind your daughters
He regrets all his memories
If love was lost at sea then mourn its passing carefully
Some day when your heart subsides
Then give into the open tide
I set you apart; you are a girl of mystery
I set you apart from time and history
Waiting all her life,
You have been spending your days all alone
Like a widow grieving
You hold onto the promise that you will see him again
Like lovers in the evening
Look softly into her eyes; a figure of bluish green
You are familiar as a lullaby,
or an actress on the silver screen
For the open and great unknown,
You're leaving your heart at home
Cruel and vast black waters,
You leave behind your daughters
He regrets all his memories
And his soul is left to haunt the breeze alone
We are lovers girl, me and you
small faced lovers girl oh
you know its true
Get through the winter time
and the spring sun starts to grow
I'm your white faced lover girl
oh don't you know
You're so warm with me
i never feel the cold
what have you done with me i've never felt this old
come through the orange summer
and stand and watch the red leaves fall
maybe by next summertime
we'll have forgotten it all
ah, we are lovers girl, me and you
small faced girl, you know it's true
come through the orange summer
and stand and watch the red leaves fall
maybe by next summertime
we're going to be waiting for a long time, but it'll be
worth it when we find what we find. and we won't be
frightened and we don't be nervous it's be perfect and
right. we'll find god in our lover's arms. we'll find god
in our lover's arms. we're going to be healing for a long
time but we won't be sleepless and we'll get better each
night. because we're not afraid of dying, we're afraid of
wanting never to die. you set your heart out in the
graveyard. go get your heart back from the great beyond.
and your milk tastes like breaking and your wrists smell
of peppermint and now you carry your sadness on your back
like a tortoise, as protection. and you sleep with a
blanket that you found on the pavement, and you cling to
it. and you want to be righteous, and you want to find
guidance, but nothing's come yet. but i read your stars
in a mason jar and you'll make love in the back yard and
you'll find god in your lover's arms we'll redefine god
as something that we want. redefine god as something that
Children united will never be divided
Children united will never be divided
Children united will never be divided
Children united will never be divided
We could be lovers we should fuck our careers
We could be models selling our derrieres for brie
The poets have nearly all gone
But lovers we fight like King Kong
This time we fight and win Open the sky
And then we fall into a Hole in the sky
This time we fight and win Open the sky
And then we fall into a Hole in the sky
We could be stardust we could make love on Mars
We own the robots and the future is ours for now
The doubters have always been wrong
But lovers we play like Ping Pong
Stand as one in this human sea
and talk of spring with juice and weed
This time we fight and win Open the sky
And then we fall into a Hole in the sky
This time we fight and win Open the sky
Though I've tried again and again
I realize why this is the end
So I'll do you this favor
and make us strangers.
This ain't the last place for me.
This ain't the last song I will sing.
This ain't the last song.
See the wolves loping through my eyes.
Hungry, roaming, ostracized?
The shepherd wrapped me in his wool
but I don't feel his pull, I feel your pull.
I'm not howling to be heard, it just hurts.
This ain't the last stop, Longing.
This ain't the last song I will sing.
