The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gift you gave To the dark and empty skies (my love) The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hand Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command (My love... That was there at my command) The first time ever I lay with you And felt your heart beat over mine And I thought our joy would fill the earth And last till the end of time my love And last to the end of time |

Looking from the window above
Its like a story of love. Can you hear me? Came back only yesterday, Moving farther away. Want you near me. All I needed was the love you gave. All I needed for another day And all I ever knew; Only you. Sometimes when I think of her name When it's only a game And I need you. Listen to the words that you say, It's getting harder to stay When I see you. All I needed was the love you gave. All I needed for another day And all I ever knew; Only you. All I needed was the love you gave. All I needed for another day And all I ever knew; Only you. This is gonna take a long time And I wonder what's mine. Can't take no more. (Can't take no more) Wonder if you'll understand It's just the touch of your hand, Behind closed doors. All I needed was the love you gave. All I needed for another day And all I ever knew; (All I ever knew) Only you. |

If I wait for just a second more
I know I'll forget what I came here for My head was so full of things to say But as I open my lips all my words slip away And anyway I can't believe you want to turn the page And move your life onto another stage You can change the chapter you can change the book But the story remains the same if you'd take a look For the times we've had I don't want to be A page in your diary babe For the good, the bad I don't want to see A page in your diary babe For the happy, the sad I don't want to be Another page in your diary Perhaps if I held you I could win again I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then That look in your eyes I always recognise Would tell me everything is gonna be fine You're gonna be mine for a long time... For the times we've had I don't want to be A page in your diary babe For the good, the bad I don't want to see A page in your diary babe For the happy, the sad I don't want to be Another page in your diary |

What can I do to make light of this dull dull day
What switch can I pull to illuminate the way Show me one direction I will not question again For a warm injection Is all I need to calm the pain We all need a love resurrection (just a little divine intervention) We all need a love resurrection (just a little divine intervention) What seed must I sow to replenish this barren land Teach me to harvest, I want you to grow in my hand Let's be optimistic, let's say that we won't toil in vain If we pull together we'll never fall apart again We all need a love resurrection (just a little divine intervention) We all need a love resurrection (just a little divine intervention) Show me one direction I will not question again For a warm injection Is all I need to calm the pain |

You've got me so confused and there's word I could use
But I'm afraid to say them. I feel I've been had and i'm boiling mad Still I can't live without you. You don't have the time and you won't spend a dime Not even to call me. You don't know I exist and I wouldn't be missed If I had the nerve to quit you. Invisible - I feel like I'm invisible. You treat me like I'm not really there and you don't really care. I know this romance it ain't going nowhere. Invisible just like my love. You treat me like I'm invisible. When you get the need to flirt you do your worst You just don't care how much it hurts. I can never reach you on the phone it rings and rings But I know you're home. It may be naive but I just want to believe I'm the only one. I tell myself lies and give you alibies Knowing your promises you'll never keep like the merry go round I'm going up I'm going down I'm on a dead end street. Invisible just like my love I feel like I'm invisible. You treat me like I'm not really there and you don't really care. I know this romance it ain't going nowhere. Although I know it's not a lot don't want to lose whatever we got. I keep hanging on knowing I can't win 'Cause it's too hard start over again. Invisible - I feellike I'm invisible. . . . Invisible just like my love. |

It's that ole devil called love again,
Gets behind me and keeps giving me the shove again, Putting rain in my eyes, tears in my dreams, And rocks in my heart. It's that sly ole son of a gun again, He keeps telling me, I'm the lucky one again. But I still have that rain, still have those tears, And those rocks in my heart. S'pose I didnt stay - ran away - didn't play, The devil what a potion, he would brew. He'd follow me around, build me up, tear me down, Till I'll be so bewildered, I wont know what to do. Might as well, give up the fight again. I know darn well, he'll convince me, that he's right again. When he sings that sorry song, I'm just gonna tag along, With that ole devil called love. He'd follow me around, build me up, tear me down, Till I'll be so bewildered, I wont know what to do. Might as well, give up the fight again. I know darn well, he'll convince me that he's right again. When he sings that sorry song, I'm just gonna tag along, With that ole devil called love. by Alison moyet |

In a fleeting moment of a restless day
Driven to distraction I was captured by the game I have often wondered why I ever wanted to Leave these scattered hours behind me and speed myself to you I choose never to forget I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds Is this love? (4x) Set to work idle hands Shake these thoughts Had I planned them they never would be teasing me as viciously as these I would not have believed you Had I never seen Now you and I are intimately pictured In my dreams I could not forsake you or fall tumbling away And if I live in wonderland I'm better off this way I choose never to forget I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds Is this love? (4x) Set to work idle hands Shake these thoughts Had I planned them they never would be teasing me As viciously as these Is this love? |

Oh, its a long time since I saw you
Well you know how time can fly It seems like yesterday we were lovers Now we pass each other by But if we're left alone tonight, don't ask me to hold you tight I go weak I go weak I go weak I go weak, weak in the presence of beauty All my friends, keep asking why I'm quiet while you're around? They dont know I think I'm so lucky to stop myself from falling down So later if you're on your own Don't ask me to take you home I go weak I go weak I go weak I go weak, weak in the presence of beauty Cause if were left alone tonight I'll have no choice but to hold you tight I go weak I go weak I go weak I go weak, weak in the presence of beauty I go weak, darling, I love you I go weak, theres no doubt about it I go weak, I go weak, weak in the presence of beauty I go weak, youre my world I go weak, I used to be your girl I go weak I go weak weak in the presence of beauty... |

She left on Sunday afternoon,
"It is the only way for everyone concerned" she said And I could only ask her why, But she just smiled and told me, one day I would learn "Don't you worry, this will all make sense tomorrow, Don't be sorry, that everything we shared will fade away There's so much to see in each new day, They'd never understand, I'm not an ordinary girl" She took nothing but her clothes Taking more would just remind her of her past, she said I thought I'd never laugh again On the day I said goodbye to my best friend And now I understand, she's just an ordinary girl |

One of these days
I'm waiting on a day When nobody comes to trample my meadow Biding my time There's gonna be a time Might take a while But changes are coming And it wont be long When everything you said Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head And when I wake up I wont see you on the bathroom floor In the tangle of clothes we left lying there It wont be long One of these nights With company I find I wont be inclined to leave before sunrise When my eyes, my mouth, my hands, my head Don't tell me that nobody else will do And it wont be long When everything you said Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head And when I wake up I wont see you on the bedroom floor In the tangle of rope we left lying there It wont be long It wont be long 'Till it's all gone And it wont be long When everything you said Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head And when I wake up I wont see you by the bedroom door In the wallpaper stained by the cup that I threw at your head It wont be long |

I can't begin to tell you how it feels
It's a clear blue sky Out here my heart so full it's fit to burst Just counting the hours Home, such a long way gone How to share a day, here's my only way Send myself to you Wishing you were here I can't begin to tell you where I've been It's a world behind And if we are to find our heaven here We just have to look harder Now I can see you I never could before, now I want nothing more When I close my eyes Wishing you were here Home such a long way gone How to share a day, here's my only way When I close my eyes Wishing you were here I can't begin to tell you how it feels |

Whose sticky hands are these
And what is this empty place I could be happily lost But for your face Here stands an empty house That used to be full of life Now it's home for no one And his wife It's a hovel and (Who) Who can take your place I can't face another day And (Who) Who will shelter me It's cold in here Cover me Under these fingertips A strange body rolls and dips I close my eyes And you're here again Later as day descends I'll shout from my window To anyone listening I'm losing (Who) Who can take your place I can't face another day And (Who) Who will shelter me It's cold in here Cover me Oh, in a plague of hateful questioning Tap dancing every syllable from ear to ear I hear the din of lovers jousting When I'm hiding with my head to the wall So (Who) Who will shelter me It's cold in here. |

She said something like I want to go down where the rivers wild
He said take me then I want to drown deep in your violent eyes [Feel the water rise again, call the river by your name] I want to float in through your door Hang it on the wall hang it all But I want to be sure of one thing That I'm getting into something peaceful I want to fly in on your wing Way, way up here I don't care for anything It's all in, and I'm not afraid I don't fear Falling She said listen I've been telling you I'm into something cruel He said give me what got into you I don't care what you do (If there's a full moon in Taiwan I want half of what you're on) I want to open up your mind Leave it all behind you and me we are one of a kind, we may find That we're getting high on something peaceful We're gonna take it for a ride Going nowhere fast but we got nothing to tie ourselves on And I'm not afraid to go down Falling She said something like I'm tired of me You've got to paint my face He said fold up like a paper boat, set sail for me again I want to fly in on your wing Way, way up here I don't care for anything, it's all in And I'm not afraid I don't fear Falling |

When she said that you were through
I thought that there was nothing that I could d Just because she ran right here Doesn't mean I interfered Now I'm wondering of we can feel the same Cause she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting She once told me how she felt Didn't just want me to hear it from someone else There were unknowns she couldn't know But she hoped you two would grow And when you didn't she was brought to me in pain And she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting If it's just a little fling a simple thing I'll try not to pretend If it's just for jealousy she's using me That might be hard to mend Oh what else can I do But try to give her more than she got from you And when she wakes up suddenly and she says you name to me I'll just hope its force of habit and not need Cause she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting Oh tell me what is fair When nothing's wrong And she just stares Like she's just waiting |

When he moves I watch him from behind
He turns and laughter flickers in his eyes Intent and direct when he speaks I watch his lips When he drives I love to watch his hands White and smooth almost feminine Almost American I have to watch him In his face age descends on youth Exaggeration on the truth He caught me looking then but soon his eyes forgot And everything he seems to do Reflects just another shade of blue I saw her searching into you and ached a while I watch his lips caress the glass His fingers stroke its stem and pass To lift a cigarette at last He dries his eyes From the shadows by the stair I watch as he weeps unaware That I'm in awe of his despair |

Some days every word gets in our way
You don't make sense of what I say And every answer begs another question why I didn't want to Maybe I could have changed the way it was I could have made much more of us And if I failed perhaps it wasn't just because I didn't want to Don't take it as a sign The stars were out of line But heaven knows Whoever I was then She won't be back again so let her go But you I wouldn't change I wouldn't change I wouldn't change you if I could It's understood They got hardboard I got solid wood Somehow if I am wont to take my time If I dig in where I should mine It doesn't build a case for your friends to decide I didn't want you Don't take it on yourself |
