When there's comfort in pleasure and pleasure in pain
And I'm wondering if I'll see you again No tangled emotions dragging us down And the texture of your voice the sweetest sound I'm gonna wrap you up and take you home with me Yo' Yo' Yeah Yeah Treasured in my heart under lock and key. When there's nothing to hold you, or holding you back No chains of attachment, only basic facts No strangled devotions, hemming us in And the taste of your smile was the sweetest thing I'm gonna wrap you up and take you home with me Yo' Yo' Yeah Yeah Treasured in my heart under lock and key Under lock and key, my precious moments My precious memories, and you know, and you know I ain't never, never, I ain't never gonna let them go Yo' Yo' Yeah Yeah When there's comfort in pleasure and pleasure in pain And I'm wondering, wondering if I'll see you again No tangled emotions, dragging us down And the texture of your voice the sweetest sound I'm gonna lock you up and take you home with me Yo' Yo' Yeah Yeah Treasured in my heart under lock and key. Yo' Yo' Yeah Yeah |

I cried the Solent, the Tyne, the Severn and the Rhine
The Thames and the Seine over again But I won't be crying anymore, a lake of tears like I shed before For you, only for you The Ganges, the Clyde, the Amazon, the Nile The Avon, the Trent, the tears that I spent! But I won't be crying anymore, all these tears like I shed before For you, only for you A sea of love runs deep in these veins Flooding my heart with anger and pain The depth of reason, a wave of regret But the times that we had I'll never forget But I won't be crying anymore, all these tears like I shed before, for you, only for you, Only for you, only for you, only... |

Genio!
You would have to be a genius to work out what it is with us And I'm no budding genius so what would I know? You would have to have a first degree to understand the history Or study anthropology, so what would I know? I know that in South America, they're burning down the trees Stoking up the fires of Western industries And you would have to be a genius to work out what it is with us, and I'm no budding genius, but some things I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know! Voca teria que ser un genio Para saber o que se passa com a gente Mas eu nao sou em genio Entao o que sei eu? Voce tem que ter un diploma Para entender a historia Ou estudar anthropologia Entao o que sei eu? I know that in South America, they're burning down the trees Stoking up the fires of Western industries And you would have to be a genius to work out what it is with us, and I'm no budding genius, but some things I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know... |

Your American arms and your French kiss From New York to London, London to New York With this broken heart so British Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the Manhattan skyline Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the fragments of my mind My mind my mind New York to London...yeah Now our love is lying like some troubled land Now you are my Ireland, and I'm your 'Nam From New York to London, London to New York With this broken heart so British Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the Manhattan skyline Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the fragments of my mind My mind my mind I should cry more tears for Israel Instead of dwelling in my own hell And my love and my world's plight They're still giving me sleepless nights What chance did I stand? How could I resist? Now this broken this broken this broken heart... So British Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the Manhattan skyline Ooh ooh yeah yeah As broken as the fragments of my mind (Repeat chorus; ad lib to fade) |

You make me feel vulnerable and totally exposed
You make me feel like a teenager dressed in a woman's clothes And I ask you, and I ask you, where do we go from here? All my life, I've been the one who's big and strong for everyone Then you come along, a towerblock for me to lean on. And I ask you, where do we go from here? You've got me so I'm curling like a kitten in your hand You've got me so I'm clawing like a tiger caged and bound And I ask you, and I ask you, where do we go from here? All my life, I've been the one who's big and strong for everyone Then you come along, a towerblock for me to lean on. And I ask you, where do we go from here? All my life, I've been the one who's always there for everyone And now I know you've let me down, will it always be That I'm the only towerblock for me? |

Your lovely face, your lovely face, your lovely...
I'm standing in my kitchen, I'm driving in my car Lying on my bed in my room wondering where you are I keep meaning to call you, but I never find the time Doesn't mean to say that you're not weaving through my mind! What I wouldn't do right now to see your lovely face What I wouldn't do right now to see your lovely face What I wouldn't do right now to fill in all this space That I've gone and built just for myself. Sitting in this restaurant, I'm running 'round some park Swimming in some clear blue water wondering where you are I keep meaning to tell you that things aren't what they seem Doesn't mean that you're not weaving through my dreams! What I wouldn't do, what I wouldn't do, What I wouldn't do right now to see your lovely face... Your lovely face, your lovely face, your lovely Your lovely face, your lovely, your lovely face Smiling on the ocean, I'm flying through the air You know I'm travelling so much travelling these days Then what should I, should I care? Finally arriving where I was born to be Doesn't mean to say your lovely face can't be with me... |
