Child in the distance
A memory untamed Family connections There's a mess in the kitchen All messages received Always a quick reply The mood the afternoon Another change of light There's nothing like an English summer The telephone is good So wonderful and true We need the time to think Everyone's listening Another change of light The underlying truth Request to pack it in No solutions |

Take me to your heart

Takes a step back
From the vacant chair Looking in the mirror While she's combing her hair Wipes the dust from a cup While she's cleaning up Wonders very slightly What she's doing there A simple reflection Can be too revealing Years are for counting Years are for stealing She's a mathematician Calculator Counting daily Counting forever... Cold clean glass and a razor blade Fly on the table and a passing car Closes the curtain to keep in the shade Closes her head and now she's counting down Dust is collecting But she doesn't notice Counting for ever She's a calculator No-one can see her She's invisible now No-one can see her And the dust is collecting |

Like a train passing in the distance
Like a bird in flight I hear you call And even though there's no one Dark shadows move across the wall I still hear the echoes Of your footsteps on the stairs Still recall the images that Seem to live out there Faces seem like fingerprints Like skeletons of leaves upon the lawn People changing places Lasting for a moment Then it's gone I still hear the echoes Of your footsteps on the stairs Still recall the images that Seem to live out there Like a train passing in the distance Like a bird in flight I hear you call And even though there's no one Dark shadows move across the wall I still hear the sound of Conversation from the hall Look to see who's coming But it's nothing And there's no one there at all (No one there at all) |

Turn from green to brown And autumn shades Come tumbling down To leave a carpet on the ground Where we have laid When winter leaves her branches bare And icy breezes chill the air The freezing snow lies everywhere My darling Will we still be there? Julia When spring rejoices Down the lane And everything is new again Will everything be Just the same Will we be there? Oh Julia |

Take a girl like that
And put her in a natural setting Like a cafe for example. Along comes the boy And he's looking for trouble With a girl like that With a girl like that. Who knows what they'll decide to do. Who knows what they'll get up to. I'd love to know. Wouldn't you? I love to listen to Beethoven... You think you know just what you want But you have used that weapon against me. Did I tell you I was lying by the way When I said I wanted a new mink coat. I was just thinking about Something sleek To wrap around my tender throat I was dreaming like a Texan girl A girl who thinks she's got the right to everything. A girl who thinks she should have Something extreme. I love to listen to Beethoven... |

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. 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. |

Like a burning red balloon It broke into my window And it slipped across the room It spread itself upon me Like the smell of sweet perfume I was sleeping like a baby I’m not a saviour I’m not a saint I’m not an angel I’m not that quaint Don’t need a preacher To be that wise Don’t need a teacher - I’ve got my eyes...

[This verse is in the lyrics leaflet, but is not actually in the song] And everytime You try to fool yourself You’ve only got yourself To blame And every lie you ever Told yourself Will all come back to you One day [This is sung instead - transcribed from listening to the song. Some words may be incorrect] They say there’s no hell on earth That’s like a woman scorned And if you have to face this hell You’ll wish you’d not been born And if you have to face this hell You’ll find me standing there In the shadows, in the corners At the foot of every stair |

In the afternoon Somebody's playing A sixties tune on the radio A lazy wind tumbles Down the street It shakes the dust up With the summer heat Where the people go... In fancy town Where nothing's real They don't consider What you feel In fancy town It's black & white They close their minds They say Wrong is right How long Will your love Hold on To stay strong enough In fancy town The attitude Could strip you bare Like frozen food A ship of fools In a crazy choir Is gonna take you home And light your fire In fancy town Where nothing's real They don't consider What you feel In fancy town It's black & white They close their minds They say Wrong is right How long Will your love Hold on To stay strong enough A deck of cards In perfect black Like cold cement On the pavement cracks Where lovers steal And beg for time And doctors sign On the dotted line... |

How many times 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 your 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 is said too many times That you're 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 how I feel I don't think you know how I feel You don't know what I feel |

The Valley of the stars You and all your jewelry And my bleeding heart Who couldn't be together And who could not be apart We should’ve jumped out Of that airplane after all Flying skyways overhead It wasn’t hard to fall And I had so many crashes That I couldn't feel At all... And it feels like I’m seventeen again Feels like I’m seventeen Times might break you God forsake you Leave you burned and bruised Innocence will teach you What it feels like to be used Thought that you’d done everything You didn’t have a clue And it feels like I’m seventeen again Feels like I’m seventeen Looking from the outside in Some things never change Hey hey I'm a million miles away Funny how it seems like yesterday ... All those fake celebrities And all those viscous queens All the stupid papers And the stupid magazines Sweet dreams are made of anything That gets you in the scene And it feels like I’m seventeen again Feels like I’m seventeen Sweet dreams are made of this Who am I to disagree I travel the world and the seven seas Everybody's looking for something Yea |

Beautiful Child
by Eurythmics Something that I said Made you wear a frown The way you hang your head Has made the tears come down But don't you wear a sigh My beautiful child You don't know it doesn't burn When you touch the sun So don't be concerned My golden one You're gonna reach the sky Fly ... Beautiful child There is no other place The human race Is running out of space There is no better love And human love is what it takes And I'll be at your side When you're falling down You'll be feeling fine When you hit the ground So don't slip away Stay ... Beautiful child |

Underneath this canopy of snow
Where fifty-seven winters Took their toll Where did you go? And I believed in you I believed in you Like Elvis Presley Singing psalms on a Sunday (Where did you go?) Well she's gone to meet her maker Back to where she came from Come to save her soul... Come to save her soul... Come to take her home 'Cause it's late and past Your bedtime Well past bedtime Angel My angel Fly over me Angel... She took her life Within her hands She took her life Within her own two hands And no-one can tell her What to do now And I believed in you I believed in you Like Elvis Presley Singin live from Las Vegas (Where did you go?)

Well I was born an original sinner.
I was borne from original sin. And if I had a dollar bill For all the things I've done There'd be a mountain of money Piled up to my chin... My mother told me good My mother told me strong. She said "be true to yourself And you can't go wrong." "But there's just one thing That you must understand." "You can fool with your brother - But don't mess with a missionary man." Don't mess with a missionary man. Don't mess with a missionary man. Well the missionary man He's got God on his side. He's got the saints and apostles Backin' up from behind. Black eyed looks from those Bible books. He's a man with a mission Got a serious mind. There was a woman in the jungle And a monkey on a tree. The missionary man he was followin' me. He said "stop what you're doing." "Get down upon your knees." "I've got a message for you that you better believe." (Chorus repeats...) |

Love is a stranger
In an open car To tempt you in And drive you far away And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession Love is a danger Of a different kind To take you away And leave you far behind And love love love Is a dangerous drug You have to receive it And you still can't Get enough of the stuff It's savage and it's cruel And it shines like destruction Comes in like the flood And it seems like religion It's noble and it's brutal It distorts and deranges And it wrenches you up And you're left like a zombie And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession It's guilt edged Glamorous and sleek by design You know it's jealous by nature False and unkind It's hard and restrained And it's totally cool It touches and it teases As you stumble in the debris And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession |

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 |

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 |

It tangles your head like a winter rose Comes up eager and shining And it likes to leave a scar before it goes Here comes that sinking feeling (Can't keep it to myself) Nobody hurts me like you do You cut into me like a poison dart Creep into my sleep at night Break into my dreams and tear them apart Here comes that sinking feeling Have you ever felt the sound of disappointment?

When the fever 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 |

I've got a delicate mind
I've got a dangerous nature And my fist collides With your furniture I've got a delicate mind I've got a dangerous nature And my fist collides With your furniture I'm an electric wire And I'm stuck inside your head I'm a hungry Mohican I've got a razor blade smile So don't come near me I've got a singular style Fifteen senses Are on my plate All the things You love to hate I'm an electric wire And I'm stuck inside your head Where I go to no one knows Find me where the cold wind blows Regrets Black is red and red is white In this country I do what I like Regrets (That's right that's right..) |

Give me two strong arms
To protect myself Give me so much love That I forget myself I need to swing from limb to limb To relieve this mess I'm in 'Cause when depression starts to win I need to be right by your side No one seems to touch me In the way you do Nothing seems to hurt me When I'm close to you I'm so full of desire When you set my head on fire I need to be right by your side Every single one of us needs Love, love, love Everybody needs to give and receive love Every single day can drag us Down, down, down But there's nothing left to fear When love gets into town I'm so full of desire When you set my head on fire I need to be right by your side |

I'm never gonna give you up Here it comes again Here it comes again Blue - the colour fools you Cool blue I'll never stay this way for ever Blue again (How could she fall for a boy like that) |

Who's that girl?
The language of love Slips from my lover's tongue Cooler than ice cream And warmer than the sun Dumb hearts get broken Just like china cups The language of love Has left me broken on the rocks But there's just one thing (Just one thing) But there's just one thing And I really wannna know Who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me Who's that girl Running around with you? The language of love Has left me stony grey Tongue tied and twisted At the price I've had to pay Your careless notions Have silenced these emotions Look at all the foolishness Your lover's talk has done |

The first cut - is a criminal thing
The first cut - goes deeper in Each impression Makes a chain reaction Each impression Will never be never be never be broken I'm a white girl - you can see my skin Look at this picture - that I 'm living in And old scores Never settle down I'll keep on walking Till I'm burried in the cold ground Cold ground Cold cold ground |

Don't touch me
Don't talk to me about it Don't touch me Don't talk to me - ever again I don't feel anything All sensation is closed to me I saw you put the needle in (I can still see) everything Take me to a quiet place Throw me in the water Watch the bubbles surface as I'm slowly sinking under |

Well in the morning
When our day begins And it feels like cold cold steel And when the sun comes up It's like a new commotion You say nobody told you It would feel like this No fear no hate no pain no broken hearts You've got the killing gun Held in your hand It feels like cold cold steel And when the sun comes up It's like a new commotion You say shoot shoot shoot it up shoot it up |

Paint a rumour
(What's it gonna spread?) Paint a rumour (See the place go red) I could tell you something (Promise not to tell) I could tell you something (Promise not to sell) It's a secret I have heard a whisper I have heard a whisper (What did it say?) I have heard a whisper (Make it go away) Don't beleive a word of it (Promise not to tell) Don't repeat a word of it (Promise not to sell) |

Love is a stranger
In an open car To tempt you in And drive you far away And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession Love is a danger Of a different kind To take you away And leave you far behind And love love love Is a dangerous drug You have to receive it And you still can't Get enough of the stuff It's savage and it's cruel And it shines like destruction Comes in like the flood And it seems like religion It's noble and it's brutal It distorts and deranges And it wrenches you up And you're left like a zombie And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession It's guilt edged Glamorous and sleek by design You know it's jealous by nature False and unkind It's hard and restrained And it's totally cool It touches and it teases As you stumble in the debris And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession |

How can you be so cold
With my arms to hold you? How can you be so cold With my arms to enfold you? I could give you - A mirror To show you - Dissappointments I could give you - A history Could you ever listen in to me? How can you be so cold When there's a fire burning? How can you be so cold When all the ice is melting? I could give you - A mirror To show you - Dissappointments I could give you - A history Could you ever listen in to me? |

I could be contended
I don't need to suffer You're beautiful Good to talk to You make an impression To take my attention And when you touch my skin I smell disaster Step away - walk away All I want is the real thing (nothing but the real thing) Walking on pavements We collect in bars Asleep in the houses So alone - Looking inside herself She breaks the glass Turns her head backwards She's fallen down again |

Sweet dreams are made of this
