I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again and past your door but you don't live there anymore It's years since you've been there Now you've disappeared somewhere like outer space you've found some better place and I miss you like the deserts miss the rain Could you be dead You always were two steps ahead of everyone. We'd walk behind while you would run I look up at your house and I can almost hear you shout down to me where I always used to be and I miss you like the deserts miss the rain Back on the train I ask why did I come again Can I confess I've been hanging around your old address And the years have proven to offer nothing since you moved You're long gone but I can't move on and I miss you like the deserts miss the rain |

I can tell by your eyes
that you've probably been crying forever and the stars in the sky don't mean nothing to you they're a mirror I don't wanna talk about it how you broke my heart if I stay here just a little bit longer if I stay here won't you listen to my heart oh my heart if I stand all alone will the shadows hide the colors of my heart blue for the tears black for the night's fears the stars in the sky don't mean nothing to you they're a mirror I don't wanna talk about it how you broke my heart if I stay here just a little bit longer if I stay here won't you listen to my heart oh my heart I don't wanna talk about it how you broke this all heart if I stay here just a little bit longer if I stay here won't you listen to my heart oh my heart My heart all my heart |

Apron strings hanging so empty,
crazy things my body tells me, I want someone to tie to my apron strings. Apron strings waiting for you, pretty things that I could call you, I want someone to tie to my lonely apron strings. Your baby looks just like you when you were young, and he looks at me with eyes that shine and I wish that he were mine, then I go home to my apron strings, cold and lonely, for time brings thoughts that only will be quiet when someone clings to my apron strings. And I'll be perfect in my own way when you cry I will be there, I'll sing to you and comb your hair, all your troubles I will share. For apron strings can be used for other things than what they're meant for, and you'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings, you'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings. |

I won't try to stop you
When you speak of the past Doubt is over now And I can join in when you laugh Facination makes us ask for more Than we'd like to know I needn't explain I think you know Reaassure me when my hearts Not bold enough to bear her name If you were in my shoes And scared I would do the same And though I may ask There's no need for past details Although I may laugh alone My courage fails Did you know See how I've changed now My heads so clear Still there are some things That I don't want to hear There must be so much I know That you cannot forget And I mustn't wish your life began The day we met They say as we go remind you Of when you were here before So you talk and tell me You don't think about it anymore There is something I know Hasn't quite been left behind So I'll ask you once again To prove that I don't mind To prove that I don't mind |

Not for the first time I look back on all those years.
Not for the last time names will ring in my ears. When there was just a gang of us, storming the town by train and bus. A moment of thought this heart sends to old friends. Not for the first time I look back on my first love. Unable to speak or think or move, hand in glove. But what of it now and where is (s)he, (s)he who once meant so much to me? Because we are not, I can't pretend, now old friends. I was told love should hold old friends. I was told love should hold old friends. But when you leave you will close the door behind you don't we always?and time won't make amends to old friends. Standing here with my arm around you, life's moved on, and all its borderlines are being redrawn. The winter has come, the roads are white. Everyone's home late tonight. May we stay or will it depend, as old friends? In the end, still old friends? |

Baby come home, I miss the sound of the door
Your step on the stair's not there to wake me no more And every day's like Christmas Day without you It's cold and there's nothing to do And it's mighty quiet here now that you're gone I've been behaving myself for too long 'Cause I don't like sleeping or painting the town on my own So please come on home Baby, what's keeping you all this time You're wasting your days out there in the sunshine And who can I turn to if you believe still That England don't love you and she never will For it's mighty quiet here now that you're gone And I've been behaving myself for too long I don't like sleeping Or watching TV on my own So please come on home |

I know you're down again and you see nothing but rain. You put your friends
through hell and that's why we get along so well. You see, I always was your girl, it always will be you and me against the world. We know the years can give romance to the street where we once lived. You wondered why no one called - between you and me, we scared them all. You see, I always was your girl, it always has been you and me against the world. Maybe we're wrong and the world is right but don't tell me that tonight. Self-assured and abusing guests, that's the way I like you best. You see, I always was your girl, it always will be you and me against the world. |

Meet me in the morning
I'll have the motor running Down icy lanes, under a glass blue sky This is living This is living I haven't come to be a stranger I haven't come to break your home I haven't come to harm your children I've come to be your love Don't let the grass grow under your feet The sands of times keep running For now at last I'm down on the street With the engine running Meet me in the evening I'll have the log fire burning Down frosty lanes, under a darkening sky This is living This is living I haven't come to be a stranger I haven't come to break your home I haven't come to harm your children I've come to be your love |

If you loose your faith babe you can have mine
and if you're lost I'm right behind cause we walk the same line. Now I don't have to tell you how slow the night can go I know you've watched for the light. And I bet you could tell me how slowly four follows three and you're most forlorn just before dawn. So if you loose your faith babe you can have mine and if you're lost I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line. When it's dark baby, there's a light I'll shine, and if you're lost, I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line. And I don't need reminding how loud the phone can ring when you're waiting for news. And that big old moon lights every corner of the room. Your back aches from lying and your head aches from crying. So if you loose your faith babe, you can have mine, and if you're lost, I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line. When it's dark baby, there's a light I'll shine, and if you're lost, I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line. And if these troubles should vanish like rain on midday, well I've no doubt there'll be more. And we can't run and we can't cheat, cause babe when we meet what we're afraid of, we find out what we're made of. So if you loose your faith babe, you can have mine, and if you're lost, I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line. When it's dark baby, there's a light I'll shine, and if you're lost, I'm right behind, cause we walk the same line |

I never thought I'd grow up so fast so far.
To know yourself is to let yourself be loved. And I want to be addicted I want to be secure I want to wake up after the night before but do you ever get me? Do you ever get me? I'll press your hand against my face weaken my resistance. I'll pull the sheets over our heads let the broken sky break above our heads. And I want to be addicted I want to be secure, I want to wake up after the night before, but do you get me? Do you ever get me? Shower me with affection and I'll return in kind. I have no hidden motive, I am blind. I'm a stone inside a box, I'm a spring inside a clock, you can wear me on your wrist and I'll tell you things ten thousand times, but do you ever get me? Do you ever get me |

I was alone thinking I was just fine,
I wasn't looking for anyone to be mine I thought that love was just a fabrication, A train that wouldn't stop at my station Home, alone, that was my consignment, Solitary, confinement So when we met, I was getting around you, I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you. I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love I didn't know I was looking for love 'Cuz there you stood, and I would, Oh I wonder, could I say how I felt and not be misunderstood? A thousand stars came into my system, I never knew how much I have missed them. Slap, on the lap, of my heart you landed, I was coy, but you made me candid, And now the planets circle around you, I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you. I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love I didn't know I was looking for love So we build from here with love the foundation In the world of tears, one conselation Now you're here and there's a full brass band Playing in me like a wonderland But if you left I would be two foot small And every tear would be a waterfall Soundless, boundless, I surround you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you. I just didn't know. I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love I didn't know I was looking for love |

It takes two to make a home
But only one to break it down Restless as the ocean roar You've finally left town Open up the bedroom door There's a prince without a crown You could not care less And that was the first sign But now you guess That you've been too careless this time You left him sleeping like a child In the arms of someone else Found it hard to criticise Because you've done the same yourself Pleasure is a pretty thing Oh but love they say is wealth You could not care less And that was the first sign But now you guess That you've been too careless this time |

If you ever feel the time to drop me a loving line
maybe you should just think twice I don't wait around on your advice You tell me I can go this far, but no more Try to show me heaven and then slam the door You offer shelter at a price much too dear And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears So don't brag how you have changed And everything's been rearranged I thought all that was over and done But I still get the same from Each and Everyone Being kind is just a way to keep me under your thumb and I can cry because that's something we've always done you tell me I'm free of the past now and all those lies then offer me the same thing in a different guise |
