homeward
You've stolen my heart and I want you to remember now what'll I do? living alone you've stolen my heart and it hurts me to remember now where'll I go to? living alone and a butterfly in the wind is drifting like I do it's dumb - I know what I want to say but I can't even take one breath as night falls I hear voices on the radio (ooh) I'll follow their dreams and wake up alone and a butterfly in the wind is drifting like I do it's dumb - I know what I want to say but I can't even take one breath so now still burning silently away a storm without the thunder |

folk song
summer sky and a throat bone dry and the fields are all gold dusty lane with a song in my brain and it stoned me to my soul I climb higher move towards the fire.....blaze sun silver trees and a whispering breeze are my sight and my sound the thought of heaven couldn't drag me from the path when I'm wandering here alone I climb higher move towards the fire.... so blaze sun watch until it dies slow falling from the sky pale fading sun |

she
she's all weak and her heart beats so she can't speak with the lights so low just to be one of a crowd feet scuttling across the floor spinning lights round and round it's adolescent war she craves noise and the music blares girl calls to a boy (and my heart is true, oh to you) he just stands and stares just to be one of a crowd feet scuttling across the floor spinning lights round and round and it's adolescent war shoes grind kick like crazy and arms tangling up with hair shaking them up and down again and hearts pounding everywhere she slows down has the music gone or has she stayed too long? |

over the rooftops a plane in the sky
beat of a bass drum cars passing me by under a bridge dark then back into light a river of raincoats and a forest of faces still for a moment then red into green slow shuffling shoes whisper sight unseen row upon row of houses return an empty stare let the daydream for a little while longer ah.. yeah... hope I'll never wake when I'm thinking about you (yeah) hope I'll never wake cos now I'm thinking about you two-minute hailstorm then melts into rain (oh) sing me a rainbow it's sunny again swallows overhead while the traffic snarls below could I (could I) keep dreaming for a little while longer hope I'll never wake when I'm thinking about you so that you know - I never want to wake cos now I'm thinking about you when you're searching your soul when you're searching for pleasure how often, pain is all you find but when you're coasting along and nobody's trying too hard you can turn around and like where you are (Yeah and) I hope I never wake when I'm thinking about you and I close my eyes (dear) now I'll never never wake why should I stop thinking about you |

lying awake dead of night and eyes that never close
flowers decay - a still life calls for a change I can징짱t wait, forever miles away dead of night and it징짱s quiet as the grave when there징짱s more in your head than you find in your life calls for a change I can징짱t wait, forever and the days and the hours and the years keep turning in my mind I징짱ve been waiting forever |

cry
and I'm standing on a platform now I'm staring from a train and all the trees roll back beside but I'm so oblivious to the dark to the light it's all the same you gave me so much and now it's of the earth and it makes me cry (it makes me cry, it makes me cry) it can make me cry and you're standing here beside me in a picture in a frame and your voice could never fade it's so familiar things you said in my head every day you gave me so much and now it's of the earth and it makes me cry (it makes me cry, it makes me cry) and it can make me cry you're with me so much though you're never with me anymore and it makes me cry (it makes me cry, it makes me cry) it can make me cry (oh it makes me cry, it makes me cry) (yeah it makes me cry, it can make me cry) |

leave this city
gone forever, the writing on the wall they've boarded-up the cinema strawberry dreams and the dust-filled beams shut down in a modern town see you walking, see you talking recollection on streets you used to know forgotten pleasure smoulder images fade but the town won't let them go sleepwalking, see you talking feel the city inside you (ooh) leave this city behind you drive wherever the roads will take you to down beside a river frozen brown January days and their scarecrow trees so cold - feel your ears burn see you walking, see you talking feel the city inside you (ooh) leave this city behind you past and present they converge on every side the wires all get tangled when now and then collide bittersweet taste of a time and another place before sleep walking, see you talking feel the city inside you (ooh) feel this city define you (yeah) leave this city behind you |

your eyes
you ask me why I'll tell you then two worlds collide we bury them we're far too drunk to see these things as they are you painted me and I sat quite still a tiny room in Notting Hill it was far too dark to look at things as they are I've seen the light vanish out of your eyes (aah oh no, from your eyes, aah oh) so goodbye you tell me now I'm young and wild you spare the rod and you spoil the child I'd love to stay but I think I'm off to Japan anyway I've seen the light vanish out of your eyes (aah oh no, from your eyes, aah oh) so goodbye (from your eyes, aah oh no, where has it gone?) your eyes have lost their shine |

monochrome
it's 4 in the morning July in ?9 me and my sister we crept down like shadows they're bringing the moon right down to our sitting room static and silence and a monochrome vision they're dancing around slow puppets silver ground and the world is watching with joy we hear a voice from above and it's history and we stayed awake all night and something is said and the whole room laughs aloud me and my sister looking on like shadows the end of an age as we watched them walk in a glow lost in space, but I don't know where it is they're dancing around slow puppets silver ground and the stars and stripes in the sand we hear a voice from above and it's history and we stayed awake all night they're dancing around it sends a shiver down my spine and I run to look in the sky and I half expect to hear them asking to come down (oh) will they fly or will they fall? to be excited by a long late night |
