When he moves I watch him from behind
He turns and laughter flickers in his eyes Intent and direct when he speaks, I watch his lips And when he drives I love to watch his hand White and smooth almost feminine, almost American, I have to watch him. *In his face age descends on youth, exaggeration on the truth He caught me looking then but soon his eyes forgot And everything he seems to do reflects just another shade of blue I saw him searching into you and ached a while I watch his lips caress the glass, His fingers stroke its stem and pass To lift a cigarette at last, he dries his eyes From a shadow by the stair I watch as he weeps unaware That I'm in awe of his despair *Repeat |

If I wait for just a second more,
I know I'll forget what I came here for, My head was so full of things to say, But as I open my lips all my words slip away and anyway, I can't believe you want to turn the page, And move your life onto another stage, You can change the chapter you can change the book, But the story remains the same if you'd take a look. *For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe, For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe, For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be another page in your diary. Perhaps if I held you I could win again, I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then - That look in your eyes I always recognise, Would tell me everything is gonna be fine, You're gonna be mine for a long time... *Repeat |

Midnight it's raining outside he must be soaking wet
Everyone is sleeping tight God knows I tried my best Darling you know it looks bad Just lost the best thing that I ever had Still I don't know why I did him wrong It's too late now he's gone to say *Baby oh no, can't leave me now Said think about it please 'Cos I love you and I need you And I should have thought of that before I did you wrong Heartache, heartache yeah When I saw his face I could see how bad I'd let him down Cheating when he was working hard, I just had to mess around I knew from the start he ain't got much money I should have stayed content with all that good sweet honey He's a good strong man and I love him so so how on earth can I let him go *Repeat And now it's midnight it's raining outside And I'm soaking wet, still looking for that man of mine And I ain't found him yet Well all of this rain can wash away my tears But nothing can replace all of those wasted years In all of this I tell you I have learnt Playing with fire gets you burnt And I'm still burning *Repeat You say you'll lose your pride Well don't you know dear, don't you know I'll lose so much more if you go now Oh no... |

To your credit to the thirty faces you created
To your headache to the shape of the 1980's I'm glad that we don't hear you any more I'm tired of playing in your fashion war To the lights to the trend setting in your head Sunday night tears from youth cults already dead I'm glad that we don't hear you any more I'm tired of fighting in your fashion war *Goodbye Seventies To your credit to the thirty faces you created To your subscription for the million copies of 1980 I'm glad that we don't hear you any more I'm tired of losing in your fashion war *Repeat |

Fate took a freeway to my room
Said to much while he stayed And left too soon. Bright on an evening sea, He washed in with the tide Deep in each other's dreams Where all but dreams had died. Wretched in your thoughts Gentle hate within the love you bought. Words fade like flowers shadowed There beneath your wall Wind cries from every angle Dead leaves left to wait for fall. And in my darkest hour When I can find no light My goals are out of sight And nothing warms the night. I close my eyes And with such sweet surprise I can be anywhere I can be anyone. And in my darkest hour When I can find no light My goals are out of sight And nothing warms the night. I close my eyes And with such sweet surprise I can be anywhere I can be anything I can be anyone I can be anyone. |

Came in from the city walked into the door
I turned around when I heard the sound of footsteps on the floor Love just like addiction now I'm hooked on you I need some time to get it right Your love gonna see me through *Can't stop now don't you know I ain't never gonna let you go Don't go Baby make your mind up give me what you got Fix me with your lovin' shut the door and turn the lock Hey go get the doctor, doctor came to late Another night I feel alright my love for you can't wait * repeat Came in from the city walked into the door I turned around when I heard the sound of footsteps on the floor Said he was a killer, now I know it's true I'm dead when you walk out the door Hey babe I'm hooked on you * repeat~~ |

Winter sounds the crying
Like an old man slowly dying And the only sound, the wind that fills the trees Even colder comes the moon And though it never seems too soon A sudden stillness as the rainfall starts to freeze *I'm I'm here to stay with you And no matter what you do When you're lonely - I'll be lonely too *Repeat I'll come to you at night When all the world is sleeping tight And lie beside you, till the early morning dew You can't hear me, you can't see But you can feel me when you read The folded letter she left addressed to you *Repeat A young girl, she is shaded Bears the scars that never faded Of the baby that was born on Christmas Day While the heavens sing their song A child's life is never long 'Cos the food supplies will only last a day *Repeat Patriot emotion, is the cause of the commotion After all there's really no-one here to blame Soldiers taking orders, 'cos we must defend the borders Of our nation (and the other side's the same) *Repeat |

Woman of thirty seeing the sun
Packed up her suitcase started to run Looking for someone looking for none Pack up and drive away It was her birthday morning Realisation gradually dawning A man in a grey suit whispered 'I'm calling' Pack up and drive away Woman of thirth, husband and kids Chained like a dog she had to rid No point in coping off came the lid Pack up and drive away Three thousand miles of honesty dreaming Perfect imagery is a gleaming No more shattered clouds were deeming Pack up and drive away In her heart it wasn't easy Mumbled words and feeling dizzy Reasons fight against excuses Mothers have their ways and uses Driving slower she was losing Dream was stirring only dozing Eyelids awaken to the daytime Just an illusion broken sunshine Woman of thirty there's no choice I can't help your helpless voice |

Green in your love on bright days
You grew sunblind you thought me unkind To remind you how winter kills Lost in daydreams you drove too fast and got nowhere You rode on half fare when you got too scared How winter kills Tear at me searching for weaker seams Pain in your eyes makes me cruel Makes me spiteful tears are delightful welcome your nightfall How winter kills |

High & dried, tyre rubber starts burning
Fill her up now before the table starts turning Souped up, jacked up, cracked up, stacked up Louie's got the gear And Charlie's got his back up And don't it make you feel good? Says she's a dirt box You're like a cannibal Somebody feeds her, sure ain't the State Farm Who buys the tickets and who buys the clothes Puts the liquor in her stomach and the powder up her nose Move. That's right And don't it make you feel good? Don't mind me honey I'm just looking Smelt your chicken And I watched you cooking Souped up, jacked up, cracked up, stacked up You're a bad stain And you need to be cleaned up And don't it make you feel good? And don't it make you feel good? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MOYET, ALISON/CLARKE, VINCENT Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC |

Blue eyed dressed for every situation
Moving through the doorway of a nation Pick me up and shake the doubt Baby I can't do without *Move out, don't mess around Move out, you bring me down Move out, how you get about Don't make a sound just move out I remember only for an hour Move right through me can you feel the power I don't know what's going on It scares me but it won't be long *Repeat Now he's in control he is my lover Nations stand against him he's your brother Been a long time, been a long time now I'll get to you somehow *Repeat |
