Angry Words
03:14
|

I hear the angry words you say
Put them in my pocket for a rainy day
Sitting in the darkness on my own
Curtains closed and all alone
Something ain’t quite right here
Something that I should fear
Maybe it’s just something I don’t know
Stuck in the middle and I’m confused
At the lifestyle that you choose
You’re on the town so fancy free
That’s one thing I’ll never be
Something ain’t quite right here…
TV man tells me how to think
His words are hazy and they drive me to drink
I can’t compare his life with mine
Mine’s a dream where his is fine

Listening
05:23
|

|
Morning, tomorrow is now here
Sunrise of your pointless fears
Yawning just lying in your bed
Thinking about the words you said
And the light fades from your eyes now
Do you see what I can see?
And I know that you have heard it all before
Are you listening for me?
Stumbling from your shrouded room
Outside into the garden’s gloom
Thinking about the day ahead
Hating the words inside your head
And the light fades from your eyes now…
Dreams will continue while you sleep
Waiting for the dreams you seek
Away from the harsh glare of the stage
Wishing someone could turn the page

Cold War Satellite
03:12
|

|
I took a grainy photo of me and you
It’s everything you say and everything you do
You put it in a paper bag all tied up with string
You read all about it, it’s not a pretty thing
It’s just another world that she doesn’t know
Another mixed up letter and another sold out show
Get up from your bed, another rainy day
Wash the dreams out from your eyes and I’ll do what you say
Pick up the paper and nail your face to the wall
You’re waiting on the telephone but no-one ever calls
It’s just another world that she doesn’t know…
That’s impossible
Take another photograph and fall asleep on the road
Cold War satellites are listening to morse code
I took a grainy photo and pinned it to the wall
She used to wear stilettos but now she’s not that tall

Like a Rainbow
05:09
|
|||
|
Sometimes I wonder what this all means
The days slip quickly by so it seems
So it seems
I feel the love but do you see me
What goes on in your mind upsets me
Upsets me
Time is my friend I think that you know
My mind is saying please don’t go
Don’t go
I hear your love all things they will be
Hear me my love but don’t discard me
Discard me
You’re like a rainbow here in my mind
I never ask don’t know what I’ll find
What I’ll find

Paintbox
04:33
|
|||
|
A new coat of paint, a new pair of shoes
I’m something I aint never been
How can I lose?
If you see me say hi, I might not reply
I’m crossing the street
I’m still worth a try
A brand new façade to hide all the pain
I’m trying real hard
I’m circling the drain
If you see me around, leave me alone
Eyes to the ground, minding my own
Alive on the outside, alone on the inside
Head in the upside
But my heart’s in the deep dive

Green Devil
04:53
|
|||
|
The bottle stands full with liquid green
A tortured throes of ta demon’s dream
A sugar cube on a silver spoon
A rocket ride to the seven moons
Fly me away green devil
Send me to sleep and I’ll dream of you
The city grey in winter time
The coloured thoughts of a fertile mind
With lemon balm and aniseed
Wormwood, Flag and Fennel weed
Fly me away green devil…
The bottle spent of its liquid green
The carnival is a sorry scene
The light descends as the twilight fades
The warmth retreats as the ghosts invade

Sullivan's Creek
04:58
|
|||
|
I’ve been found in all the lonely streets in town
Think I’m just sinking down
Can’t take a trick, the bottle and pills just make me sick
It’s something that I cannot fix
Some things I think I should ignore
I find myself lying on the floor
Your voice soft, stuck deep within my head
I forget what I have said
I find the lines on the mirror in this place
Are like the lines on my face
Somethings I think I should ignore…
Down on Sullivan’s Creek
where you used to meet me
We’re walk around every day of the week
when living was easy
Now I walk around in my gloom
We drink wine and eat cashews
And now there’s nothing that I can do
I’m so lonely without you
Every day the girls have changed their names
And nothing seems the same

Raindrunk
06:46

The five o’clock shadow show
Listening to the radio and hoping for the better
The weather girl has had her say
Another front is on its way it’s about to get wetter
And it’s been like this for days and days
With no sign that things will change
It’s enough to make you want to cry
High in the rain drunk sky
I remember sunny days
At the sandbar catching rays
Endless weekends by the waves
Rain drunk city miles away
There’s nothing we can do but sit
Waiting for the storm to hit staying horribly cheerful
The weather vane has blown away
And if we see the sun today we be tropically cheerful
And I’m overcast from head to toe
Under the influence of the east coast low
It’s going to take us years to dry
High in the rain drunk sky
She was standing there in the cold and pouring rain
The girl from my dreams, tears flowing down the drain
Tomorrow all my sighs and everything hereafter
Reminds me of the sun and wine and smiles and laughter
I bought a bunch of flowers but they wilted in the sun
I offered them to her, she just smiled and off she ran
Tomorrow all my sighs and everything hereafter
Reminds me of the sun and wine and smiles and laughter
Rain, falls softly to the ground
Rain, the lifeblood of the town
And rain, it makes the desert green
The dust is now unseen, grass where it had been
In the end it all depends on rain

Because I do
03:35
|
|||
|
If you ask me why I want you it’s because I do
If you ask me for a reason, it’s all those little things you do
If you wanna know why, I couldn’t even try
To explain these feelings I have inside
So when you ask me why I want you it’s because I do
If you ask me why I want you it’s because I do
If you ask me for a reason, it’s all those little things you do
If you wanna know why I couldn’t even try
To explain these feelings I have inside
So when you ask me why I want you it’s because I do
It’s so hard when you know it
And you just can’t show it
Sometimes you wanna give it all away
It’s never been easy or so I’m told
But I hear it just gets better
As you grow old together
If you ask me why I need you it’s because I do
If you ask me for a reason it’s all the little things you do
I don’t know how I’d survive without you here by my side
So when you ask me why I love you it’s because I do

Trying
03:48
|
|||
|
I’m here sitting on my own
Where I’m going I don’t know
There’s darkness all around me
Where is the sun so I can see?
You know that I’m really trying
And things are better than before
I think I can hold it all together
All you want and then maybe more
Waiting here for your phone call
I’m so cold but I don’t mind at all
Where I am and where you want to be
You know that’s alright by me
You know that I’m really trying…
Light floods in through my window
Nightmares they must surely go
Morning time and here comes the light
Later on comes another night

Love of the Loved
02:51
|
|||

Leaves on the ground are what she sees
She moved her life to the country, now all alone
When she’s sitting in her chair
She thinks of his soft words, they’re oh so clear
Time will heal it all
Time will heal it all my friend
Drinking wins wine and playing games
It’s okay it’s not the same for her today
And when she’s standing at the door
She dreams of words that he once said to her before
Time will heal it all…
And he said, stay with me
Please don’t leave, ‘til I can no longer breathe
Sunny days are what she loves
To walk the fields and know the love of the loved

Trafalgar Square
03:43
|
|||
|
I was sitting with her in the bedroom
when there was a call upon the phone
She looked at me with a sad smile
and told me that she really must go home
Nothing I can say to change a thing today
And if I could I tell what I’d do
I think I want to stay with you
Then there was no hesitation
as she left there to catch the plane
I wonder if she’s now in England
boating on the Thames in summer rains
Get me out of this world
It’s really not that fair
What is my destination?
If she’s not there?
Nothing I can say to change a thing today…

Merry-go-round
05:54
|
|||
|
Summer time sun and the winter rain
Smoke blowing through the hurt and the pain
In the springtime
Leaves on the ground and the stars in your eyes
Growing older by the day life is passing you by
Such a good time
You know I’ve seen it all before
I’ve felt the ups and downs seen the writing on the wall
Love lost once can’t hide the pain
Life is a merry-go-round inside my brain
