When the rainy season comes I hang my head For all the things I've seen And done and said And then I wonder why I hold my head up high And feel the rain The storm came creeping Like a song I ought to know And caught me sleeping deep in thoughts I thought should grow And then I opened up Prepared to fill my cup And sing it slow But in the darkness I could see the demons leap They were the devils I had come upon in sleep And as I made to sing The devils spread their wings And sang like angels So sweet So when the rainy season comes I hang my head For all the things I have seen and done And sung and said And when my tears are dry I hold my head up high and feel the rain Well, baby I never said I was gonna be jesus Though you're searching For a saviour in your mind Never said I'd be dealing down any forgiveness So let me save your precious time And when your tears are dry Forever wave goodbye to chasing rainbows When the rainy season comes I hang my head For all the things I have seen and done And sung and said And when my tears are dry I hold my head up high And feel the rain |

Sand seperates the sea From me on my desert island Sun obliterates the sky And i, I'm just like anyone No matter how I try I wanna see the sun. And it shines To luminate the distance Illustrate the difference Between you and me And it collides with clouds That set the sky free Indicating right, indicating wrong I'm just like anyone I wanna see the sun. Moon through many stages move And light love Like a silent l.d. Swoon and every single kiss You ever lit like this Is gonna feel like bliss So just reflect the sun And guide everyone. And it shines To luminate the distance Illustrate the difference Between you and me And it collides with clouds That set the sky free Indicating right, indicating wrong So just reflect the sun And guide everyone. A cable car above the bay Below the stars saying "are you okay? " To the one you love. It swings like a song As it strings you along You suspend your belief There's no need, baby I've gone there Stars shone there. And they shine To luminate the distance Illustrate the difference Between you and me See them collide with clouds That set the sky free Indicating right, indicating wrong And just like anyone I wanna see the sun I wanna see the moon I wanna see the stars I wanna see them shine. |

When day has lost it's dark When shadows cease to fall I wish and wonder You walk into the room The air is turning blue I'm turning to you And all my time Is open wide Chorus: And you, you say you'll do one thing And then you do two things Smile and the birds sing and everything And you, you're painting the sky blue Growing the grass green Sending the sea crazy You sway and my head swims You swam onto my shore Closed your fingers Smiled and blew And shone your heart And my heart flew And fell for eyes that shone They close and I'm all gone And you've left here I'm burning blue For someone who Flew too near Chorus Closed your fingers Smiled and blew And shone your heart And my heart flew You say you'll do one thing And then you do two things Smile and the birds sing It's crazy |

Everybody's walking through the city all alone But no one talks about it I am just a simple, unassuming kind of man So neither do i But I walk like the rest and try to do my best 'til I'm beaten, 'til I'm blue And it shines like the sun inside of everyone Like the neon that I see in the rain On the avenue Everybody's dreaming 'bout a city in the sky Where we can live without love I am just a simple, unassuming kind of guy So so do i But to feed you from a shell, fill you up and wish you Well. That's my reason, it's what I do And it shines in the guise of egyptian sparkling eyes In the basement of a hotel Paradise On the avenue And if the hotel burns down We'd probably drown 'neath the firemens' hoses Holy moses! I would still believe that paradise Was there with you Never blue Stuck like glue On the avenue |

Waited winter long For her sweet face Sang my winter song To a suitcase Saw the surest thing I had ever known Find her own place Watched my numbers turn On a glass wall Felt my bridges burn On a last call As her clear blue gaze Set my heart ablaze In a snowfall I caught the fastest train That my feet could find Rode the wind of change Couldn't change my mind I got laid just to see My reflection burning bright I got paid and I prayed Everything would turn out right And then I sang my winter song I caught the fastest train That my feet could find Rode the wind of change Couldn't change my mind I got laid just to see My reflection burning bright I got paid and I prayed Everything would turn out right And then I sang my winter song And then a small voice sang inside of me And for miles and miles My eyes could see Then everything I knew Was wrong with me And then a snowflake fell imperfectly |

I've seen it before So sad and unsure Trying to make it happen To four on the floor But what do you do With someone like you Debutantes shiver in lace And pray for disgrace Crossing the tracks Then hurrying back Suitably late You learn what to do Just wrap it in blue Tie it up and take it home I wanna hear the sound Of the tears you're crying I wanna be around When your tears are drying Wanna say the things That I know I ought to But never said before 'cos I thought you knew Are you all in blue For a reason Believing what you're feeling is true Or is it just a shade this season Baby blue. Swans splash on silvery lakes But the ice never breaks Watching the conversation crawl Reassuringly fake I'm spinning in space And feeling this place Moulding you with money and time Holding you although you are mine I wanna hear the sound Of the tears you're crying I wanna be around When your tears are drying Wanna say the things That I know I ought to But never said before 'cos I thought you knew Are you all in blue For a reason Believing what you're feeling is true Or is it just a shade this season Baby blue. Pretty girl don't wait for me You'll see his sunshine Sometime come shining |

How does it feel To have time on your side And never worry too much? Never alone, kicking at stones As though you're never been touched Touched by the feeling That nothing is real It's all an illusion Wheels in the drive One of the guys With nothing to prove Beautiful girl, how in the world Could you be suffering so Life's lost it's appeal And maybe I feel A little more than you know Why should I care When everyone has their share Perhaps your hearts like my own You may despair but you're never alone Long as the shore summons the sea To hold and to heal We're borne on our way to bloom and decay And this is the deal Can you feel the love stopping the wheel Beautiful girl Simple and still heaven, revealed Watching the water That flows in the river I've been feeling so sad Seems like the things that today has to give Are not as good as I had Changes are coming Don't know if I'm ready Is my head in the clouds River keep Running away from it Long as the shore summons the sea To hold and to heal We're borne on our way to bloom and decay And this is the deal Can you feel love stopping the wheel Beautiful girl Simple and still you're heaven revealed |

Born on a junk heap in the sea Cursed with the notion to be free White and bright and twenty one But in my heart I'm on the run I kissed the lips of eau de vie I tasted sugar and debris But in the early morning light I saw the day destroy the night Life is a long walk home Chorus: Was it the moonlight That left you gasping Grasping, something, beyond a boy or a girl Just let it all blow Untie your heartstrings No, don't cling to this phenomenal world I lost my senses in the spring Of someone's life that I left behind And though I search through everything A sense of loss is all I find Her face is every work of art She haunts the city high and low But I can't live inside her heart And so I had to let it go And make my heart my home Chorus |

The sun that drowns everything in gold Feeling it taking hold, holding her hand The hue of her hair, colouring every care Willing to share, who'd understand? As faith breaks down In the shadow of a cold cathedral Chorus: Make a wish for the one you love As the storm sets the leaves in motion Let it blow on the breeze of a deep blue ocean Love's a bird in the human hand Feel it breathe as your fingers open Would it stay here and sing If it's wings were broken? That's the method of love By chance she calls Shatters the mood I'm in Letting the light shine in Bathe me in grace The trials of time Course though this heart of mine Feel her erase Every trace And stand by me In the deluge of the slings and arrows Chorus |
