CHRISSIE:
You've been crying your face is a mess Come in baby, you can wipe the tears on my dress She's hurt you again, I can tell I know that look so well Don't be shy, we've been here before Pull your shoes off, And I will lock the door And no-one has to know, I've come here again Knowing it'll be like it's always been before Breakfast In Bed, Kisses For Me You don't have to say you love me Breakfast in bed, love can make you sing What's your hurry, please don't hit and run We can let her wait, my darling its been so long Since you've had me here, I've returned again Darling it will be like it's always been before |

I'm sitting here praying
that you weren't just saying Leaving tomorrow was what you had planned No point in pretending I know that it's endingI I just wanna know where the ending began Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good I thought you had saved me the love that you gave me The sweetest loving in all of the land But you've taken my heart and you've torn it apart And it's crumbled to dust in the palm of your hand Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good There's nothing worth saying I know you're not staying Might as well face it it's out of my hands No point in pretending I know that it's endingI I just wanna know where the ending began Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good Where did I go wrong to make it like this No warmth in your body no touch in your kiss Holding you now hurts more than it should If I let you go girl you'll be gone for good |

I didn't mean to be so late
It's just that I got talking I had a drink with a couple of mates Missed my bus and wound up walking I tried to call and let you know It was busy and I couldn't get through I didn't want to let you down I know how much it hurts you I don't know what came over me It must have slipped my mind I'll try and make it up to you Let's leave the past behind I promise that I'll do my best To mend my wicked ways And don't believe the things you hear Don't listen to what they say I would do for you All you'd have me do All you have to do Is ask me to All you have to do Is tell me when And I'll come running back again If there's something wrong then let me know Don't bottle things inside Your pretty eyes can melt my heart Your sadness they can't hide Please try and give me one more chance To set the record straight Meet me here tomorrow night And I promise I won't be late I would do for you.......

It must have broke your poor little heart
When the boys used to say, you looked better in the dark. But now they'd give all they learnt in school To be somewhere in the dark with you The teacher would ask the questions And you, would always raise your hand But somehow you never got your turn And my eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn Homely girl, you used to be so lonely You're a beautiful woman oh yes you are Homely girl you used to be so lonely You're a beautiful woman oh yeah There was a boy who used to sit beside you Who'd like to hold that place his whole life through Oooh you were beautiful to me You had a heart no one could ever see, oh yes you did Homely girl, you used to be so lonely You're a beautiful woman oh homely girl I was the only one who offered To carry your books Took all the stares and laughter And the dirty looks Cause I saw then what they see now They all want to ask you for a date They don't know how, they don't know how Homely girl, you used to be so lonely You're a beautiful woman oh yeah Homely girl you used to be so lonely You're a beautiful woman, ooh yea, ooh hoo You're a beautiful woman |

The night seems to fade
But the moonlight lingers on There are wonders for everyone The stars shine so bright But they're fading after dawn There is magic in Kingston Town Oh Kingston Town The place I long to be If I had the whole world I would give it away Just to see the girls at play when I am king surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything And now I am king And my queen will come at dawn She'll be waiting in Kingston Town Oh Kingston Town The place I long to be If I had the whole world I would give it away Just to see the girls at play when I am king surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything And now I am king And my queen will come at dawn She'll be waiting in Kingston Town She'll be waiting in Kingston Town She'll be waiting in Kingston Town |

Wise men say

Every hour of every day I'm learning more
The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground Moon and stars sit way up high Earth and trees beneath them lie The wind blows fragant lullaby To cool the night for you and I On the wind the birds fly free Leviathan tames angry sea The flower waits for honeybee The sunrise wakes new life in me Every hour of every day I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground The fishes swim while rivers run Through fields to feast my eyes upon Intoxicated drinking from The loving cup of burning sun In dreams I'll crave familiar taste Of whispered rain on weary face Of kisses sweet and warm embrace Another time another place And every hour of every day I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground |

Did I ever say, how I feel about you
A thing I never found that easy to do The things that you do, don't need to be heard You know your actions, baby, speak louder than words I've got the bottle, bring me your cup Pop the cork, and try a sup And when you're empty, I'll fill you up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up I'm heading home, like a steaming train Foot to the floor, in the driving rain My head is aching and my mouth is dry I've got a thirst only you can satisfy I've got the bottle, bring me your cup Pop the cork, and try a sup And when you're empty, I'll fill you up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up |

A woman came and said to me
She'd seen a lady sell her baby For ten or twenty dollars maybe And everybody thinks she's crazy They're too blind to see She never failed to call attention To the things we never mention Real horror, daily, courtesy of your TV C'est La Vie A woman came and said to me Now listen very carefully There's brother killing brother People living on their knees Biting sugar coated bullets For the pain of this disease C'est La Vie A woman came and said to me She had a husband on an island Found his body on a wasteland Soldiers came and took him Just to torture her you see All alone she mourned her lover Crossed the sea to find a brother Maybe he could help her get her baby back for free C'est La Vie |

Now I know your secret
I promise that I'll keep it So confidentially Between just you and me, I'll never leak it I'm the specialist I know you can't resist I'll bypass your alarm No need to twist my arm, I insist If you're looking for a war There's a market for betrayal Don't ask me what I saw Y'know my secrets not for sale Don't ask me what I heard Y'know I promised not to say I said I'd never breathe a word Until my dying day Well seeing is believing No use in your deceiving For now I know it's true It's you that holds the clue, I'll be leaving Now I've got to say goodbye You understand I have to fly When you get the third degree And the truth don't set you free, You've got to lie If you're looking for a war There's a market for betrayal Don't ask me what I saw Y'know my secrets not for sale Don't ask me what I heard Y'know I promised not to say I said I'd never breathe a word Until my dying day |
