Well, he said it like he meant it
But he did not really care So I sat upon the Eve's embraces I was never there - No, I was never really fabled I was never really lost I was cunning through that habit of mine Y'see all the words were lost Yes, all the words were lost And you can stand upon your own life Say it always seemed to seal There were smiles upon the picture But I don't know what to feel And I told a million stories And I sat down to risk half But I never really meant it 'Til you came and stole my heart away You came and stole my heart away And even if your real thought Hid a thousand words away And even if you never knew It all came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today Well, the rain scales up And your soul is drowned And mother's saying still raise a frown And mother's saying still makes you see What you have lost instead of me And even if your real thought Hid a thousand words away And even if you never knew It all came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today And even though the starlight falls And takes your breah away You still stare up towards the toss I don't know what to say I don't know how to be alone With some kind fretless friend And even though the Harvest brings Well, we all begin again I say we all begin again And even if your real thought Hid a thousand words away And even if you never knew It all came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today It all, it all, all, all All came back today I would like this sun Be spoke until I find I was all remembrance Until the words got tired |

We almost got it together
And I'll be your favourite thing Stand by the river with hard-luck eyes And I'll just be open and sing I was only trying to surprise I wish I was like the frog-princess And I'd never tell you lies And down by the soil of the hard-life They like to greet us with smiles They like to tell us their good hostess Had travelled a million miles But you'd like it written closer Yes, you'd like it written pure If I told you this - Would you miss my kiss? No - you'd come right back for more Oh, I'd like to be What I want to be But you want to carry on But you need to take What you have to take But I'll still be here when you're gone And there's a light by your window And I'd like to capture you by there And I'd like to hold you for all to see But they don't really care And if I said you're no peccadillo Yes, I said you're a major thing Would you stand by me? At the corner dock And say, "yes, this girl is the swing!" Oh, I'd like to be What I want to be But you want to carry on But you need to take What you have to take But I'll still be here when you're gone And I'd like another cue That's why I strain to see And I'd like the best in you 'Cos you write the best in me They were sure that I'd be burning Yes - So their tart swerve to here might be But if I said "you're gold ffb , inside", Yes and if you were true to me Would you hang around with that creepy smile And crawl home back to me Oh, I'd like to be What I want to be But you want to carry on But you need to take What you have to take But I'll still be here when you're gone |

I have a picture
It's taken with looks It wont tell a story But I'm glad I forgot everything that you say I choose the colours And reword the lines Now somebody's second heart Ain't the first of mine Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in I got my wallet Been shot from the start Feel shot when I'm feeling drained But we all know how to smile when we're falling apart You choose the colours now Let's play with the rest I never believe at all But some of us sometimes, Are just thrilled, by meeting the blessed Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in I have the oath ring, somebody said Makes like a twinge running straight through my head Maybe this fortune is not what it seems Some of us pin, some of us pin time on our dreams And saved from the talk shifts Went straight to your goal Straight backed and straight laced Well, you never really Do you ever really know? I check on the same day I checked out the view I checked all the soft land Well, it comes so easy from you Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in |

As always I stop to speak
Some girls like to say their piece As always I turn to you Don't understand what you're doing And Light up this town Grow weary and back down It's such an amazing sight To be found - Little sister leaving town Says the poet "I won't grass" Some things are better left and not taken to task I guess I knew she was a Rose She knows what hurts and how to hold If your daddy he turned round Let the grass around him scream the sound I'm so sorry for these tales you're telling Sometimes you can't account Light up this town Grow weary and back down It's such an amazing sight To be found - Little sister leaving town And sometimes it's absurd A minor triumph when you hear the words "I'm just trying to stake my place No real fears upon this face" And my wishes Nobody says All the signs when I cross the days I'm just holding back for you Sometimes that helps too Light up this town Grow weary and back down It's such an amazing sight To be found - Little sister leaving town |

You know it's alright
Just to take me home To your serious house, with your serious tones You're a serious man, with a serious smile But the summer is hot and I might surprise you In a very short while we'll have left them behind With their faces quite pained As they try to remind themselves Oh, it's really so wrong It's really so out And it's really not cool to take a young girl about And I know the young man with a century's face A philosopher king - he will try to amaze With examples of love and examples of hate And to see them explode We will just have to It's a simple love story It grows better all the time You can tell me all about it But first I'll tell you about mine You know it's alright to be trustful, have tact But the problem's complex When you keep holding back We could talk for an hour We could talk for a day But the people we know would still have their say Talk of such virtuous women Talk of such noble men But if I'm on the level I have met none of them Oh, I've met troubled people with deep and dark thoughts Who have hallowed my name And sworn I will get caught But why waste real feeling and Why waste our time To let the earth bow to no virtue of It's a simple love story It grows better all the time You can tell me all about it But first I'll tell you about mine You know it's alright to just make mistakes But to tail in with hurt - is the gravest make We all create lives which we don't understand But to point the accused is a job for no man And we curse our own longing - and curse our own ways I won't be satisfied with my soul that's It's a simple love story It grows better all the time You can tell me all about it Now I've told you about mine |
