Come the weekend
And we’ll long gone baby Just like the old days Letting the world flow through me Just a parasite in a line I'm smoking, killing the time How long’s a piece of twine What use is sympathy From here you can almost see the sea If you would hold still Could make a clean incision Then we could sit back And watch the demolition Little puppy dog in a box Somebody’s picking the locks Must want the darn from the socks Here comes the cavalry From here you can almost see the sea Just another fool in the line I dream of high clouds Flushed with the light of daybreak I'm gonna dive in To water so cold it makes your bones ache Fingers, knees and knuckles scraped All of the rubbish heaped A piece of cardboard taped Up where the bedroom window pane used to be From here you can almost From here you can almost see the sea Just another fool in the line Just another fool in the line I saw a film once Where all the airholes froze up A killer whale swam Under the blue ice Until her heart stopped |

Gonna close my eyes
Gonna watch you go Running through this life, darling Like a field of snow As the tracer glides And its graceful arc Send a little prayer up to you Cross the falling dark Tell the repo man And the stars above That you're the one I love Perfect summer's night Not a wind or breeze Just the bullets whispering gentle Amongst the new green leaves These things I might have said Only wish I could Now I'm leaking life faster than I'm leaking blood Tell the repo man And the stars above That you're the one I love Don't see elysium Don't see no fiery hell Just the lights all bright, baby, in the big hotel Next wave coming in Like an ocean rock Won't you take my hand, darling, on that old dance floor We can twist and shout Do the turtle dove |

Maybe that it would do me good
If I believed there were a god Cut in the starry firmament But as it is that's just a lie And I'm here eating up the boredom On an island of cement Give me your ecstasy I'll feel it Open window and I'll steal it Baby like it's heaven sent This ain't no love that's guiding me Some days I'm bursting at the seams With all my half remembered dreams And then it shoots me down again I feel the dampness as it creeps I hear you coughing in your sleep Beneath a broken window pane Tomorrow girl I'll buy you chips A lollipop to stain your lips And it'll all be right as rain This ain't no love that's guiding me This ain't no love that's guiding me No it ain't no love guiding me No it ain't no love guiding me No it ain't no love guiding me This ain't no love that's guiding me This ain't no love that's guiding me On winter trees the fruit of rain Is hanging trembling in the branches Like a thousand diamond buds And waiting there in every pause That old familiar fear that claws you Tells you nothing ain't no good Then pulling back you see it all Down here so laughable and small Hardly a quiver in the dirt This ain't no love that's guiding me |

Oh my word ain't never seen
Day so golden, Earth so green Put my face into the stream That I might see What might have been Oh my heart how time has flown Feet that pass along the stone I hardly recognized my home All the paths had overgrown The music and the laughter gone 'Pon my soul ain't never felt So free of all the chains I built All the pain and all the guilt Vanished now beneath the silt I'm striding 'cross Orion's belt Oh my word I... Oh my word I... Oh my word I... |

I can see it in your eyes
What I know in my heart is true That our love it has faded Like the summer run through So well walk down the shoreline One last time together Feel the wind blow our wanderin hearts Like a feather But who knows whats waiting In the wings of time Dry your eyes We gotta go where we can shine Dont be hiding in sorrow Or clinging to the past With your beauty so precious And the season so fast No matter how cold the horizon appear Or how far the first night When I held you near You gotta rise from these ashes Like a bird of flame Step out of the shadow Weve gotta go where we can shine For all that we struggle For all we pretend It dont come down to nothing Except love in the end And ours is a road That is strewn with goodbyes But as it unfolds As it all unwinds Remember your soul is the one thing You cant compromise Take my hand Were gonna go where we can shine Were gonna go where we can shine Were gonna go where we can shine (and look, and look) Through the windows of midnight Moonfoam and silver |

While I was watching you did a slow dissolve
While I was watching you did a slow dissolve While I was watching you did a slow dissolve Did I imagine or do the walls have eyes Did I imagine they held us hypnotized Did I imagine or do the walls have eyes Life in slow motion somehow it don’t feel real Life in slow motion somehow it don’t feel real Life in slow motion somehow it don’t feel real Snowflakes are falling I'll catch them in my hands Snowflakes are falling I'll catch them in my hands Snowflakes are falling now you’re my long lost friend |
