I lose some sales and my boss won't be happy
But I can't stop listening to the sound Of two soft voices rendered in perfection From the reels of this record that I found Every day there's a boy in the mirror Asking me what are you doing here Finding all my previous motives Growing increasingly unclear I've travelled far and I've burned all the bridges I believed as soon as I hit land All the other options held before me Will wither in the light of my plan So I lose some sales and my boss won't be happy But there's only one thing on my mind Searching boxes underneath the counter On a chance that on a tape I'd find A song for Someone who needs somewhere To long for Homesick Cause I no longer know Where home is |

If you wanna be my friend
You want us to get along Please do not expect me to Wrap it up and keep it there The observation I am doing could Easily be understood As cynical demeanour But one of us misread... And what do you know It happened again A friend is not a means You utilize to get somewhere Somehow I didn't notice friendship is an end What do you know It happened again How come no-one told me All throughout history The loneliest people Were the ones who always spoke the truth The ones who made a difference By withstanding the indifference I guess it's up to me now Should I take that risk or just smile? What do you know It happened again What do you know |

Through the alleyways to cool off in the shadows
Then into the street following the water There's a bearded man paddling in his canoe Looks as if he has come all the way from the Cayman Islands These canals, it seems, they all go in circles Places look the same, and we're the only difference The wind is in your hair, it's covering my view I'm holding on to you, on a bike we've hired until tomorrow If only they could see, if only they had been here They would understand, how someone could have chosen To go the length I've gone, to spend just one day riding Holding on to you, I never thought it would be this clear |

(One, two...One, two...)
I walked around for hours, two ten pence pieces in my hand I was alone and freezing, still trying hard to understand you I left the others knowing, I had to work this by myself But now the feeling's growing, I would be better off with their help So baby, what we've got Has lately not been enough Not been enough I wish I had your scarf still, that once embraced and kept me warm I wish you could be with me, in these last days when I am still hopelessly poor Stay out of trouble Stay in touch Try not to think about me too much Stay out of trouble Stay in touch Try not to think about me too much |

Riding on this know-how
Never been here before Peculiarly entrusted Possibly that's all Is history recorded? Does someone have a tape? Surely, I'm no pioneer Constellations stay the same Just a little bit of danger When intriguingly Our little secret Trusts that you trust me 'Cause no one will ever know That this was happening So tell me why you listen When nobody's talking What is there to know? All this is what it is You and me alone Sheer simplicity What is there to know? All this is what it is You and me alone Sheer simplicity What is there to know? All this is what it is You and me alone Sheer simplicity |

Five weeks in a prison, I made no friends
There's more time to be done, but I've got a week to spend I didn't pay much attention first time around But now you're hard not to notice, right here in my town Where the stage of my old life meets the cast of the new Tonights actors: Me and You Each day is taking us closer While drawing the curtains to close This far, or further, I need to know Your increasingly long embraces Are they saying sorry or please? I don't know what's happening, help me Through the streets, on the corners, there's a scent in the air I ask you out and I lead you, I know my way around here There's a bench I remember, and on the way there I find That the movements you're making, are mirrored in mine And your hand is held open, intentionally Or just what I want to see? Your increasingly long embraces Are they saying sorry or please? I don't know what's happening, help me I don't normally beg for assistance I rely on my own eyes to see But right now they make no sense to me Right now you make no sense to me |

All I do is sleep all day, and think of you
A memory of the cushion life I'm clinging to The image of a mutual one, our haven The sombre chords of our song, the fading Love is no big truth Driven by our genes, we are simple selfish beings A symphony that's you Joyously awaking the ignorant and sleeping Passion and its brother hate, they come and go Could easily be made to stay for longer though Many people play this game so willingly Do I have to be like them, or be lonely? Love is no big truth Driven by our genes, we are simple selfish beings A symphony that's you Joyously awaking the ignorant and sleeping I'll never need it again, not again, not again... |

I'd rather dance with you than talk with you
So why don't we just move into the other room There's space for us to shake, and hey, I like this tune Even if I could hear what you said I doubt my reply would be interesting for you to hear Because I haven't read a single book all year And the only film I saw, I didn't like it at all I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you The music's too loud and the noise from the crowd Increases the chance of misinterpretation So let your hips do the talking I'll make you laugh by acting like the guy who sings And you'll make me smile by really getting into the swing Getting into the swing, getting into the swing Getting into the swing, getting into the swing Getting into the swing, getting into the swing Getting into the swing, getting into the swing... (Getting into the swing...) I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you I'd rather dance with you I'd rather dance with you |

Summerchild that sits by the water
Weaving sunlight threads in his hands The golden river that day a shelter A stream where he could make pebbles dance You looked around you, nobody had taken Any notice of what you saw Against the evening sky a formation A million black birds looking like one Live long Save ten years to remember Live long Hold it in front of your eyes once more Live long Save ten years to remember Live long Hold it in front of your eyes |

When past sometimes takes you with soft hands
Forceless it pulls you to your chair Hides you away from these half days Sunless, at the end of the year The air is like a knife cutting through you A room in the house is always warm Stretched down on the bathroom floor thinking Of fair days your future may hold Love comes like surprise ice on the water Love comes like surprise ice at dawn Love comes at dawn Deprived all the light of colours The world ends at your window tree Darkness creates these illusions That pale days can teach you to see Rain falls but no life is given Weeks pass, no progress is made Past sometimes takes you with soft hands And all that surrounds you will fade |

Without giving anything away
I can say it's by the sea It's a house that used to be The home of a friend of mine Without giving anything away We find ships inside of bottles When the garden's overgrown The house is white, but the paint is coming off I didn't know if you wanted to But I came to pick you up You didn't even hesitate And now you and me are on our way I think I've bought everything we need Don't look back, don't think of the Other places you should've been It's a good thing that you came along with me Gold in the air of summer You'll shine like gold in the air of summer You'll shine like gold in the air of summer You'll shine like gold in the air of summer |

The build-up lasted for days
Lasted for weeks Lasted too long Our hero withdrew When there was two He could not choose one So there was none Worn into the vaguely announced Worn into the vaguely announced The spinning top made a sound like a train across the valley Fading, oh so quiet, but constant 'til it passed Over the ridge into the distances, written on your ticket To remind you where to stop And when to get off The spinning top made a sound like a train across the valley Fading, oh so quiet, but constant 'til it passed Over the ridge into the distances, written on your ticket To remind you where to stop And when to get off The spinning top made a sound like a train across the valley Fading, oh so quiet, but constant 'til it passed Over the ridge into the distances, written on your ticket To remind you where to stop And when to get off When to get off When to get off When to get off |
