I step off the train,
I'm walking down your street again, and past your door, but you don't live there any more. It's years since you've been there. Now you've disappeared somewhere, like outer space, you've found some better place, and I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain. Could you be dead? You always were two steps ahead of everyone. We'd walk behind while you would run. I look up at your house, and I can almost hear you shout down to me, where I always used to be, and I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain. Back on the train, I ask why did I come again? Can I confess I've been hanging round your old address? And the years have proved, to offer nothing since you moved. You're long gone but I can't move on, and I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain. |

Oh loverboy To you I belong But maybe one day you'll wake and you'll find me gone But loverboy If you call me home I'll come driving I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn Oh loverboy I know you too well and all of my lonely secrets To you I tell The highest of highs The lowest of lows I'll come driving I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn Stretching away as far as my eyes can see Deserts and darkness, my hand on the wheel loverboy, please call me home A girl can get lonely out here on the road You see Some days I find the old ways Frighten me too easily I leave my key and say "I'm too young" But loverboy If you call me home I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn |

Not for the first time I look back on all those years. Not for the last
time names will ring in my ears. When there was just a gang of us, storming the town by train and bus. A moment of thought this heart sends to old friends. Not for the first time I look back on my first love. Unable to speak or think or move, hand in glove. But what of it now and where is (s)he, (s)he who once meant so much to me? Because we are not, I can't pretend, now old friends. I was told love should hold old friends. I was told love should hold old friends. But when you leave you will close the door behind you - don't we always? - and time won't make amends to old friends. Standing here with my arm around you, life's moved on, and all its borderlines are being redrawn. The winter has come, the roads are white. Everyone's home late tonight. May we stay or will it depend, as old friends? In the end, still old friends? |

A summer evening; I walk past the window,
Baby's crying; Someone's cooking dinner; There's laughter on the TV Someone's learning the violin. How at home, it heals At times like this, I feel that... CHORUS: I would like to live like anybody else In one place And I could be happy and fulfilled In one place So I get the map out And draw a line of where we've been It goes thru sea and sky Twenty-five planes this year And it's only July... This is not some Bible, like on the road It's just a song about coming home And whether... CHORUS: I would like to live like anybody else In one place And I could be happy and fulfilled In one place And you know that I have found That I'm happiest weaving from town to town And you know Bruce said we should keep moving 'round Maybe we all get too tied down, I don't know Hell, I don't know I'm happy to be home (Still alive) Happy to be home... In the end, if you take care You can be happy or unhappy anywhere CHORUS: And I think we maybe all rely too much On one place I know I never would deny the need For one place So I get the map out (get the map out) Yeah I get the map out (get the map out) C'mon, get the map out (get the map out) Get the map out (get the map out |

Love, love is strange
Many people take it for a game Once you've had it you're in an awful fix 'Cause after you've had it you never wanna quit A lot of people, they don't understand They think lovin' is money in their hand Your sweet lovin' is better than a kiss When you leave me those kisses I will miss Love, oh woh, love is strange Many people, oh woh, take it for a game Once you've had it, oh woh, you're in an awful fix 'Cause after you've had it, oh woh, you never wanna quit A lot of people, woh woh, they don't understand They think lovin', oh woh, is money in their hand Your sweet lovin', oh woh, is better than a kiss When you leave me, oh woh, those kisses I will miss When you leave me, oh woh, those kisses I will miss Those kisses I will miss, those kisses I will miss Those kisses I will miss |

Apron strings hanging so empty, crazy things my body tells me, I want
someone to tie to my apron strings. Apron strings waiting for you, pretty things that I could call you, I want someone to tie to my lonely apron strings. Your baby looks just like you when you were young, and he looks at me with eyes that shine and I wish that he were mine, then I go home to my apron strings, cold and lonely, for time brings thoughts that only will be quiet when someone clings to my apron strings. And I'll be perfect in my own way - when you cry I will be there, I'll sing to you and comb your hair, all your troubles I will share. For apron strings can be used for other things than what they're meant for, and you'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings, you'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings. |

We are not true
We are not pure We are not right O but still I'll steal to you at night Too selfish by half Too ugly by far But when your songs have been sung, come to me Rumours are rife And winter blows cold Reminds me of such wretched times And yet all the same I will never deign To think ill of you When all's well My love is like cathedral bells Amongst all the dross The lies and the grief There are so many things you just wouldn't believe But amongst all the dross The lies and the grief When all's well My love is like cathedral bells |

Your words stung me to the heart
I hadn't even noticed how far we had drifted apart can I still count you as a friend or have I done to much now to ever make amends cause I once needed just an open mind well that's no reason why I now should leave you behind A word from out of the blue reminds me how much I once needed you oh but that's all in the past now so much that I can scarcely remember how I once needed just a hand to hold cause now the few times we meet all I sense is a love grown cold you can't hold on to everything and I've forgotten what we talked about a long time since can't recall days with regret tomorrow remember today and all the rest forget cause time's gone by and all the things we did are now so much water under another bridge |

If you ever feel the time to drop me a loving line
maybe you should just think twice I don't wait around on your advice You tell me I can go this far, but no more Try to show me heaven and then slam the door You offer shelter at a price much too dear And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears So don't brag how you have changed And everything's been rearranged I thought all that was over and done But I still get the same from Each and Everyone Being kind is just a way to keep me under your thumb and I can cry because that's something we've always done you tell me I'm free of the past now and all those lies then offer me the same thing in a different guise |

I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own. I don't want to cause any serious damage. I want to make sure that I can manage because I'm not really in your head I'm not really in your head. And I see love and disaffection and the clouds build up and won't pass over. This is my road to my redemption. And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway. I still haven't got over it even now. I want to spend huge amounds of time in my room. And I'm not coming out until I feel ready, not running out for a while my heart's unsteady, and I'm not really in your head. I'm not really in your head. When you sky falls to minus zero, well some things must dissappear. Oh this is my road to my redemption. And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway. The names may have been changed but the faces are the same The names may have been changed but as people we're not the same. And I'm not, no I'm not, no I'm not really in your head. And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway. Yeah, my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway |
