<< Mirror Man >>
--- Human League The water shines A pebble skips across the face A dozen times, then disappears Not a trace left behind The thrower turns and walks away A change of mind Another start a brand new day You know I`ll change If change is what you require Your every wish Your every dream, hope, desire Here comes the mirror man Says he's a people fan Here comes the mirror man And if it seems I'm not the one you used to know Our little friendship left behind not long ago Don't feel too hurt As distance heals the strongest pain Things are much better now And just a nagging doubt remains You know I`ll change If change is what you require Your every wish Your every dream, hope, desire Here comes the mirror man Says he's a people fan Here comes the mirror man Here comes the mirror man Says he's a people fan Here comes the mirror man |

Put your hand in a party wave
Pass around Make a shroud pulling combs through a backwash frame Find the copies in a carbon mount Pass around Stroke a pocket with a print of a laughing sound Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd The shades from a pencil peer Pass around A fold in an eyelid brushed with fear The lines on a compact guide Pass around A hat with alignment worn insde Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get in line now Get in line now Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd |

She dreams of nineteen sixty-nine
Before the soldiers came The life was cheap on bread and wine And sharing meant no shame She is awakened by the screams Of rockets flying from nearby And scared she clings onto her dreams To beat the fear that she might die And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the lebanon The lebanon Before he leaves the camp he stops He scans the world outside And where there used to be some shops Is where the snipers sometimes hide He left his home the week before He thought he'd be like the police But now he finds he is at war "weren't we supposed to keep the peace" And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the lebanon The lebanon The lebanon From the lebanon I must be dreaming It can't be true I must be dreaming It can't be true And who will have won When the soldiers have gone? From the lebanon The lebanon The lebanon From the lebanon |

Come on, baby, dry your eyes
Wipe your tears Never like to see you cry Won't you please forgive me? I wouldn't ever try to hurt you I just needed someone to hold me To fill the void while you were gone To fill this space of emptiness I'm only human Of flesh and blood I'm made Human Born to make mistakes So many nights I longed to hold you So many times I looked and saw your face Nothing could change the way I feel No-one else could ever take your place I'm only human Of flesh and blood I'm made Human Born to make mistakes I am just a man Please forgive me The tears I cry aren't tears of pain They're only to hide my guilt and shame I forgive you now I ask the same of you While we were apart I was human too I'm only human Of flesh and blood I'm made I am just a man Human Born to make mistakes |

When you're in love
You know you're in love No matter what you try to do You might as well resign yourself To what you're going through If you're a hard man or if you're a child It still might get to you Don't kid yourself you've seen it all before A million mouths have said that too I've had my hard times in the past I've been a husband and a lover too I've lain alone and cried at night Over what love made me do And the loved ones who let me down And couldn't share my point of view But this is philomena talking I want to tell you What i've found to be true I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I believe, i believe what the old man said Though i know that there's no lord above I believe in me, i believe in you And you know i believe in love I believe in truth though i lie a lot I feel the pain from the push and shove No matter what you put me through I'll still believe in love And i say I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking - i'm just checking To see if someone out there Is really reading all this |

When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years Her face was older, just a little rough But her eyes were still so clear He drank his coffee and he hurried out Across before she walked away Then he approached her like a little child Too scared for what he had to say "hello, louise, Remember me? Now should we part Or stay awhile? As if we were still lovers" She took a moment just to recognise the man she'd known so well before And as he started to apologise Lose any bitterness she bore She gently put her finger on his lips To let him know she understood And with her suitcase standing on the floor Embraced him like a lover would He told louise "you look so good It's just you see You make me feel As if we were still lovers" It's not always true that time heals all wounds There are wounds that you don't wanna heal The memories of something really good Something truly real, that you never found again And though they talked for just a little time Before she said she had to go He saw the meeting as a tiny sign That told him all he had to know And so louise Waved from the bus And as she left She gave that smile As if they were still lovers |

And when it hurts you know
They love to tell you How they warned you They say "don't be surprised At someone's lies" They think they taunt you But if you can stand the test You know your worst is better Than their best And so you stand here With the years ahead Potentially calling With open heart Or with a spirit dead You walk on Lies the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart Dare to feel Take the chance Make the deal Being an island Shying from trying Seems the easy way Such an easy way But there's no future Without tears Lies the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart But if you can stand the test you know your worst is better than their best lies the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart |

Winter is approaching
There's snow upon the ground It's good of you to visit me I'm glad you came around I don't know how you found me I didn't let you know I only moved to this address About a week ago I guess you think i ran out But that's not true Other people settle down I never do I always have to move on Just have to go I've often wondered why that is I'd like to say but i just don't know I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own Up here the summer's shorter And winter's very cold I'm looking forward to the peace My lonely life will hold I'm really glad you came here Thank you for the talk It's funny how my problem stopped When we went for a walk Standing here together Means so much I won't forget your confidence I won't forget your touch You know i'll come to see you Passing through We'll always be a world apart I'll travel on but i will be true I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own |
