from Annie Lennox - Little Bird [single] (1992)
I look up to the little bird
That glides across the sky He sings the clearest melody It makes me want to cry It makes me want to sit right down and cry cry cry, yeah. I walk along the city streets So dark with rage and fear And I... I wish that I could be that bird And fly away from here I wish I had the wings to fly away from here, yeah. But Mamma I feel so low Mamma where do I go? Mamma what do I know? Mamma we reap what we sow They always said that you knew best But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed So I've just got to put these wings to test For I am just a troubled soul Who's weighted... Weighted to the ground Give me the strength to carry on Till I can lay this burden down Give me the strength to lay this burden down down down yea Give me the strength to lay it down Lay it down, Lay it down. But Mamma I feel so low Mamma where do I go? Mamma what do I know? Mamma we reap what we sow. They always said that you knew best But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed So I've just got to put these wings to test |

Come into these arms again
And lay your body down There is among this trembling heart Is beating like a drum It beats for you It bleeds for you And knows not how it sounds For it is the drum of drums It is the song of songs Once I had the fairest rose That ever came to bloom Cruel winter chills arrive And stole my flower too soon Oh loneliness Oh hopelessness To search the ends of time For there is in all the world No greater love than mine Love...still falls the rain Still falls the night Be mine forever Let me be the only one To keep you from the cold Now the flower fair as day The stars of brightest tone They shine for you They shine for you They burn for all to see Come into these arms again And set this spirit free |

from Annie Lennox - Medusa / Live In Central Park [live] (1994)
When I was just seventeen I ran away from home
To be with all the pretty people To be on my own Bright lights and trains and bedsit stains And pavements paved with gold And I believed in everything that everybody told me Have mercy Have mercy upon me I found myself in a lonely place with a suitcase full of dreams and I soon grew up to realise what living in the doghouse means But everyday I told myself good things would happen soon 'Cause I knew that I was going to be a legend in my living room Have mercy Have mercy upon me (Welcome to this perfect world) Now everyday on a dead end street is where I spend my time The dust has been collecting on the corners of my mind But I've shed my tears in bitter drops until the thorn trees bloomed To take the spiky fruit to crown myself the Queen of doom Have mercy Have mercy upon me |

we skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels cross the floor I was feeling kind of seasick the crowd called out for more the room was humming harder as the ceiling flew away when we called outfor another drink but the waiter brought a tray and so it was later as the miller told his tale that her face at first just ghostly turned a whiter shade of pale you said there is no reason and the truth is plain to see but I wander through my playing cards and would not let it be I'm one of the sixteen virgins who are leaving for the coast and although my eyes were open they might just as well been closed and so it was later as the miller told his tale that her face at first just ghostly turned a whiter shade of pale a whiter shade of pale turned a whiter shade of pale a whiter shade of pale |

You have placed a chill in my heart
You have placed a chill in my heart Take me to the desert Where there's got to be A whole heap of nothing For you and me Take me to the desert Take me to the sand Show me the colour of your right hand You have placed a chill in my heart You have placed a chill in my heart Love is a temple Love is a shrine Buy some love at the five and dime A little bit of love >From the counter store Get it on credit if you need some more I'll be the figure of your disgrace A criss cross pattern upon your face A woman's just too tired to think About the dirty old dishes in the kitchen sink I wish I was invisible So I could climb through the telephone When it hurts my ear And it hurts my brain And it makes me feel too much Too much too much too much Don't cut me down When I'm talking to you 'Cause I'm much too tall To feel that small Love is a temple Love is a shrine Love is pure And love is blind Love is a religious sign I'm gonna leave this love behind Love is hot and love is cold I've been bought and I've been sold Love is rock and love is roll I just want someone to hold |

You were the sweetest thing that I ever knew
But I don't care for sugar honey if I can't have you Since you've abandoned me My whole life has crashed Won't you pick the pieces up Cause it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass The sun's still shining in big blue sky But it don't mean nothing to me Oh let the rain come down Let the wind blow through me I'm living in an empty room With all the windows smashed And I've got so little left to loose That it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass And if you're trying to cut me down You know that I might bleed Cause if you're trying to cut me down I know that you'll succeed And if you want to hurt me There's nothing left to fear Cause if you want to hurt me You're doing really well my dear Now everyone of us was made to suffer Everyone of us was made to weep But we've been hurting one another And now the pain has cut too deep So take me from the wreckage Save me from the blast Lift me up and take me back Dopn't let me keep on walking Walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass |

Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do Is love and hold you right There is just one thing I can say Nobody loves you this way It's all right,can't you see The downtown lights In love we're all the same We're walking down an empty street And with nobody calling on me Empty street,empty night The downtown lights *How do I know you feel it How do I know you feel it How do I know you feel it How do I know you feel it It's all right Tonight and every night Let's go walking down this empty street Let's walk in the cool evening night Wrong or right,be t my side The downtown lights It will be all right It will be all right The downtown lights *Repeat Neons and cigarettes The rented rose and rented cars The crowded streets,the empty bars Chimneytops,the trumpets The golden lights,the loving prayers Colored shoes,the empty trains I'm tired of cring on the stairs The downtown lights |

How many time do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done But when I start to try to tell you That's when you have to tell me Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun I tell myself too many times Why don't you ever learn to keep you big mouth shut That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words That keep on falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Tell me Why Why I may be mad, I may be blind I may be viciously unkind But I can still read what you're thinking And I've heard it said too many times That you'd be better off Besides... Why can't you see this boat is sinking (This boat is sinking this boat is sinking) Let's go down to the water's edge And we can cast away those doubts Some things are better left unsaid But they still turn me inside out Turning inside out turning inside out Tell me... Why Tell me... Why This is the book I never read These are the words I never said This is the path I'll never tread These are the dreams I'll dream instead This is the joy that's seldom spread These are the tears... The tears we shed This is the fear This is the dread These are the contents of my head And these are the years that we have spent And this is what they represent And this is how I feel Do you know how I feel? 'Cause I don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel I don't think you know what I feel You don't know what I feel |

You've got the cool water
When the river runs high And you've got the look of love Right in your eyes And I was in a crazy motion Till you calmed me down It took a little time But you calmed me down Some people never say the words "I love you" It's not their style to be so bold Some people never say the words "I love you" But like a child They're longing to be told They've got a wall in China It's a thousand miles long To keep out the foreigners They made it strong And I've got a wall around me That you can't even see It took a little time To get next to me If something goes wrong I'm the first to admit it The first to admit it But the last one to know If something goes right Well,it's likely to lose me It's apt to confuse me Because it's such an unusual sight Oh I can't get used to something so right Something so right Some people never say the words "I love you" It's not their style to be so bold Some people never say the words "I love you" But like a child I'm longing to be told They've got a wall in China And I've got a wall around me It took a little time To get next to me |
