When I see you smile
It feels like I'm falling It's not for anybody else to know The way your face could light the bitter dark of every street In every town I'll ever go It's not for anybody else to know For anybody else to know When I see you smile First thing in the morning It raises curtains on your lazy eyes Could it be that you and I have the greatest love to ever be How could this have ever been before? It's not for anybody else to know For anybody else to know When Friday night arrives We'll let it pass outside the door This is not for anybody else Anybody else to know |

From here to there to everywhere
And back to Union Square Where do I get some sleep? Anywhere the sleep dust lies It decorates your eyes Where do I get some sleep? Stranded in June Whistling the same old tune But I do believe I might be having fun I believe I might be having fun Impeccably dressed in your second hand vest We were waiting for the taxi to come Putting on my daytime eyes A good enough disguise Until I get some sleep Reading out the horoscopes And using up our jokes When do we get to sleep? Stand on the moon Find the light of my living room Yes I do believe I might be having fun I believe I might be having fun Tune into the station Make a dedication This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone Something in the phrasing was quietly amazing We were waiting for the chorus to come This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone From here to there to everywhere And back to union square Where do I get some sleep? Anywhere the sleep dust lies It decorates your eyes When do I get some sleep? Stranded in June Whistling the same old tune Yes I do believe I might be having fun I believe I might be having fun Tune into the station Make a dedication This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone This is going out to everyone Going out to everyone This is going out to everyone |

Just wanna know ya
Just wanna talk to ya I wanna hear about your day I'd never leave ya Never be mean to ya I'd always let you get your way Something good will come our way And maybe this good thing's gonna happen today If I were honest I 'd tell you everything But it keeps coming out as lies It's not a promise In case you're wondering It's not some blessing in disguise But something good will come our way And maybe this good thing's gonna happen today Something good will come our way And maybe this good things gonna happen today I know romance is not in fashion And my heart is on the line If you would be so kind To help me kill some time Then something good just might come crashing From the stars that light the sky If you would be so kind To help me kill some time Just wanna know ya Just wanna talk to ya I wanna hear about your day I'd never leave ya Never be mean to ya I'd always let you get your way Something good will come our way And maybe this good thing's gonna happen today Something good will come our way And maybe this good things gonna happen today Something good will come our way Something good will come our way Something good will come our way Something good will come our way La la la la la la La la la la la La la la la la Something good will come our way |

When all the star gazes bloom
And throw their stars around the room I was waiting for the day For you to love me When all the elements conspire With shiny things that catch the eye I was waiting for the day For you to love me Precious precious thing You are the thought that makes me sing Wanna leave all my possessions It's a rare and precious precious thing When all the elements conspire With shiny things that catch the eye I was waiting for the day For you to love me Precious precious thing You are the thought that makes me sing Wanna leave all my possessions It's a rare and precious precious thing And I know all I need Is to get on the phone Is to get on the phone And call you Call you As clear as rain on a street It shines like bright coloured stone These things no one can own They are for you This is for you This is for you This is for you |

Flogging a rocking Horse
Getting nowhere We are a pair to behold You like a funeral me like a fair Nobody cares for the show These days the rapids may drag us from here And I do not care where we go And you say that love is what we are my dear But I just pretend not to know If it's the be all and end all Then come on now love lets make a start When love calls then it's time to play ball But starting's the easiest part Counting my blessings like stars in the sky The sleep walking moon watching on And she's seen how lovers before us have tried My darling lets not get it wrong If it's the be all and end all Then come on now love lets make a start When love calls how sudden the fall But falling's the easiest part I've had love come to nothing before But it's alright it's alright I've welcomed it in And I've shown it the door But it's alright it's alright |

Come around for tea
Dance me round and round the kitchen By the light of my T.V On the night of the election Ancient stars will fall into the sea And the ocean floor sings her sympathy Drive me miles away Escape the sky that we lay under Of all the dreams we cannot shake We're always shaking in our slumber In the car don't let me fall asleep I might leave my heart here on your vinyl seat Well the sound of the city's now long gone And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema Feel the little changes coming on So come to me where you belong Of all the bright machinery Love's the strangest of inventions How could this all just turn on me? When all I wanted was perfection And you are That's what you are to me You're the brightest star when all the world's asleep Well the sound of the city's now long gone And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema Feel the little changes coming on So come to me where you belong Come to me where you belong |

Sink with the tide
Rescue me if you like I'll be leaving it all up to you Think how we tried It's o.k. to be lied to As long as it's only by you People say to me it's best that we've parted 'Cause you know I'm better alone Don't explain to me how you're so broken hearted I'm too busy mending my own Ending each night with such honest goodbyes Such honest goodbyes for the last time Honest goodbyes only work once or twice They work once or twice Then the rest must be lies Late ever night the colours fade from the sky And the music is gone from the moon Standing in line for what used to be mine What use is the rhyme with no tune People say to me it's best that we've parted And nothing is carved out in stone It's such a shame how we're back where we started It's late now and time that we go Ending each night with such honest goodbyes Such honest goodbyes for the last time Honest goodbyes only work once or twice They work once or twice Then the rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies The rest must be lies |

She left on a Monday
She's a siren down the road In your herringbone overcoat That you don't expect to get back And it's an ordinary sky Today's like any other day When all of the aeroplanes Write her name in the clouds And nothing's wrong But it's already Sunday And you know just how Sunday Was the day that she would come around? Go to her foolish man What's the use of having pride if you don't have her? She'll endure all she can But you could make this easier on her It's all like sinking You're trying to stay afloat Like a wind blown paper boat Over uncharted sea There's no question why You're driving to kill some time Racing the power lines Back into town Go to her foolish man What's the use of having pride if you don't have her? She'll endure all she can But you could make this easier on her Go to her foolish man What's the use of having pride if you don't have her? She'll endure all she can But you could make this easier on her Make this easier on her Make this easier on her Make this easier on her |

What a beautiful collision
Things that go bump in the night With such beautiful precision Fate could create you and I Do you know what it means To abandon your dreams? To leave with the storms rolling by How the clouds on this day Come to take you away Til you're gone gone far away from me Beautiful beautiful night What a beautifully dangerous ride What a beautiful day we could hardly complain about What's going on in the sky What a beautiful collision Things that go bump in the night With such beautiful precision Fate could create you and I Do you know what it means To abandon your dreams? To leave with the storms rolling by How the clouds on this day Come to take you away Til you're gone gone far away from me Beautiful beautiful night What a beautifully dangerous ride What a beautiful day we could hardly complain about What's going on in the sky Move with the strangers That pass through your days If someone by chance Should call out your name When you're lost in the places you don't care to stay A blinding romance to blow you away |

So I'm listening for the weather to predict the coming day Leave all thought of expectation to the weather man No it doesn't really matter what it is he has to say Cause tomorrows keep on blowing in from somewhere All the people that I know in the apartments down below Busy with their starring roles in their own tragedies Sunlight sends you on your way And those restless thoughts that cling to yesterday Never be afraid of change I'll call you on the phone I hate to leave you on your own But I'm coming home today 2. And this busy inner city Has got nothing much to say And I know how much you're hanging round the letterbox And I'm sure that as I'm writing You'll be somewhere on your way In a supermarket checkout or the restaurant I've been doing what I'm told I've been busy growing old And the days are getting cold but that's alright with me Sunlight sends you on your way And those restless thoughts that cling to yesterday Never be afraid of change I'll call you on the phone I hate to leave you on your own But I'm coming home today Yes I'm coming home today ~ I've been doing what I'm told I've been busy growing old And the days are getting cold but that's alright with me Sunlight sends you on your way And those restless thoughts that cling to yesterday Never be afraid of change |

Counting the days on the calendar
Strange how they bleed into each other All that I need Is a day with you Pencil me in on your Saturday Taking my leave Should I be waylaid please wait for me On a day with you Maybe for now an hour will do Remember my dear this time last year The sunsets were late and the days were long And the nights were filled with song The nights were filled with song Strolling the street we're strangely complete Let's stay awake till the morning comes We don't need anyone We don't need anyone Wasting my life at the traffic lights Getting nowhere Trapped in the turnstiles Stay within reach Of a day with you Maybe for now and hour will do |

If gravity let us go
We would all go flying And I'll meet you somewhere in the milky night Away past the satellites The breeze is dressed so lightly And it breathes onto this fire escape Where all our secrets melt like ice Leaving only water Night will close us down And change the view And I'll promise you what I can I forget myself when I'm with you Please remind me who I am Dancing like a landslide Swinging round the living room We fall like sudden rain from sullen skies Singing to the radio's tune Say my name aloud And make it new And I'll promise you what I can I forget myself when I'm with you Please remind me who I am Day so soon, hear all the traffic move The sirens all fill this room till we both have to shout From the road, watching the stars explode You and I breathe so slow How strange the sound |
