Doves

The car zoomed past, I watched the passers by
Birds flew backwards, yet still arrived

Winter seemed to linger
But now the swallows have arrived
Won't be long until summertime

Walked through woods to the power lines
Saw birds fly backwards in perfect line

Oh, winter seemed to melt now
Now the swallows have arrived
Can't be long 'til summertime, summertime

Someday soon you'll know how it feels to love someone

All my love and all my heart go with you
Just look into my eyes and what can you see?
But all my love and all the time keep with me
I'll keep it with me

Someday soon you'll know how it feels to love someone
Someday soon you'll know how it feels to trust someone

Seven days and seven nights have fallen
Empty streets and bright lights he's walking
So why is it the ones we love we can't trust?
We can't trust

Because someday soon you'll know how it feels
to love someone
Someday soon you'll know how it feels to trust someone
To trust someone

It's been a while since I loved someone

Bad snow freeze my throat
And numbs my soul
Eats me whole to pick me up
That's where you know
Free to go
You call the Jones
Makes me old before I'm old
Its all you love
Deep inside I know you love
The less I seem to know you love

Bad snow numbs my throat
And leaves me dry leaves me dry
Leaves me barely whole
Down to the wire
Rock gone cold
You caught a cold
Like so many times before its all you love
Deep inside I go you love
The less I seem to know you love

Here now deep inside I go
Here now

Fuck longsight
And Levenshulme
Same goes for Stockport and Hulme
We're doin' alright
Just post-house blues
'cause this is Northenden in the afternoon

The kids are deranged
They love guns and kidnap
That's jus the way we do things here
The day dies down
Not a moment too soon
Under the Northenden afternoon

Northenden Afternoon
Northenden Afternoon

If you should fall
If you should fall
Far from grace

If you should call on him
Wake up to the music again
You can feel sunlight
In your eyes

Living is so useless 'round here
The city's so dangerous
On your own
How beauty dies young

But if you should fall
Oh, if you should flow
From grace
How beauty, beauty fades

If you should fold
If you should fail
Far from grace
Far from grace

Oh, oh beauty
You could know

Pounding
by Doves


I can`t stand by
see you destroyed
I can`t be here and watch you burning
you lie for a moment, you lie as a decoy
It doesn`t matter if I give in easy
So why is it so hard to get by (and I said)
we so down
but it`s now or never baby
we don`t mind
if this don`t last forever
see the light
but it won`t last forever
seize the time
cause it`s now or never, baby
let`s leave at sunrise
let`s live by the ocean
I don`t mind if we, never come home ( at all)
Let`s steal the morning and set in motion
in and out of love and institutions
cause I know this can`t last for long
(and I said) we so down
but it`s now or never baby
we don`t mind
if this don`t last forever
see the light
but it won`t last forever
seize the time
cause it`s now or never, baby

instrumental break

So why is it so hard to get by (and I said)
ah~~
we so down
if this don`t last forever
we don`t mind
cause it`s now or never, baby

get out of bed
pick up the phone
time to tell the press
say to myself
i can't do no one else
there's a whole world outside

i'm gonna tell it all
i'm gonna sell it all
i'm gonna sell

het out of bed
come out and sing
blue skies ahead
the man who told everything

and i feel
like i'm losing my head
i didn't mean to stay
ives have been wrecked
and i've picked up my cheque
catch a plane out of here

i'm gonna get out of here
i'm gonna get out of here
i'm gonna sell

I hear a sound A sound above my head
Distant sound of thunder Moving out on the moor

Blackbirds flew in And to the cooling towers
I'll pack my bags Thinking of one of those hours
With you, Waiting for you

My god
It takes an ocean of trust In the Kingdom of Rust

I long to feel
Some beauty in my heart
As I go searching Right to the start

The road back to Preston Was jutted out in snow
As I went looking For that stolen heart
For you, Waiting for you

My god
It takes an ocean of trust Takes an effort, it does

My god
It takes an ocean of trust It's in the Kingdom of Rust

Ohh, in the Kingdom of Rust

I long to feel
That wince in my heart
As I went looking I couldn't stop
Now I'm Waiting for you

Ooohh

I know
It takes an ocean of trust In the Kingdom of Rust

Well I, feels like a place I've never been
And I, feels like a place I've never seen

Oh, somebody's givin' in but I'm not
Somebody's givin' it but I'm not
Somebody's givin' it a lifetime
Somebody threw you a lifeline

Somebody wakes to the sun in the sky
Others are livin' with hate in their eyes

Oh, the fires that you made and the earth that you walk
The ground beneath and the words that you talk
The fires that we own and the words that we talk
The ground beneath and the earth that we walk
All gone

And yeah, there are pictures of the sun
And yeah, just like sketches of the sun
The colors run

Somebody's givin' in but I'm not
Somebody's givin' up a whole lot
Somebody's givin' it a long time
Somebody threw me a lifeline

Sometimes it's hard to see things straight
Tryin' to make sense of a single page
Sometimes you seem to spend your life tryin'
But I'm just lookin' for my lifeline

The fires that you made and the earth that you walk
The soil beneath and the words that you talk
The fires that we own and the words that we talk
The ground beneath and the earth that we walk
The earth that we walk, gone, all gone

And it feels like a place I've never been

faces in the hallway
cracks up in the ceiling
shadows coming my way
and your house is full of mirrors
echoes in the alleyway
a-footsteps in the hall
and this house if full of mirrors
and your house is full of mirrors
and it's time for you to come and stay
now, it's time for you to find a way
and it's time for you to come and stay
in the house of mirrors

echoes in the alleyway
a-footsteps on the floor
i never thought I'd see the day
but this house if full of memories
is there anybody out there?
i saw it comin' my way
but this house is full of mirrors
in this house of many mirrors
and it's time for you to come and stay
now, it's time for you to find a way
oh and every room and every hall
I've seen your face


and it's time for you to come and stay
in the house of mirrors

(...everyone I know has seen us)

yeah, faces in the hallway
(faces in the hallway)
shadow on the ceiling
(shadow on the ceiling)
this chill is comin' my way
(this chill is comin' my way)
and this house if full of memories
oh, echoes in the alleyway
(echoes in the alleyway)
a-footsteps in the hall
now, love is comin' my way
(now, love is comin' my way)
in this house of many mirrors
oh, in every room, in every hall - I've seen your face
now, it's time for you to come and stay

in the house of mirrors

All the love you stole
All the love you saw
Exposing you but I am torn

Dark spell, I crave you so
I wanna live but you just won't let me go

We laid up there, in stars
Woke up in the storm
Am I yours? I'm unsure

And dark spell, you cast me so
I wanna live but you just won't leave me alone
Oh, I'm

And the wheel keeps turning
But I can't get enough
And the flame keeps burning
But I surrender love, oh yeah

They say the eyes are like
A window to the soul
I ain't so sure, I see through yours

And my borders are broken wrong
I just can't protect and protect them no more

Yeah, and the wheel keeps turning
But I can't get enough
And the flame keeps burning
But I surrender love, oh yeah

Turn your back on another world
Promise yourself never again

Oh yeah, love
And the wheel keeps turning
But I can't get enough
And the sun keeps burning
And I surrender love

those eyes they transmit
all your loving
echos light into dark hearts
i would swear I've seen this, left beside me
your eyes they hypnotize

she keeps me here so spellbound
her love pulls me near to stranger ground
I've lost my mind there
this dark magic mirror, spellbound

a heart-shaped face
with words as cold as stone
i can't believe this is my fate

she raised your head
now the night, it's coming down


i accept this fate i accept my love you won't be long
you keep me here so spellbound
your love pulls me near to sacred ground
i lost my mind there
this dark magic mirror, spellbound
and i can't leave now
leave her now (x2)

she keeps me near so spellbound
her love pulls me near to stranger ground
i lost my mind there
this dark magic mirror, spellbound (x2)
so spellbound (x3)

Son,
What have you done?
You're caught by the river.
You're coming undone.
Life,
You know it can't be so easy,
but you can't just leave it.
Cause you're not in control no more.
And you give it all away.
Would you give it all away now?
Don't let it come apart.
Don't want to see you come apart.
Son,
What are you doing?
You learned a hard lesson,
when you stood by the water.
You and i were so full of love and hope.
Would you give it all up now?
Would you give in just to spite them all?
And you give it all away.
Would you give it all away now?
Don't let it come apart.
Don't want to see you come apart.
Could you give it all away,
And you give it all away now.
Don't let it come apart.
Don't want to see you come apart.
Lay,
I lay in the long grass.
So many people,
So many people pass.
Stay,
Stay here and lie on back.
Get down in the cornfields.
Stay till we're caught at last.
Give it all away...
Give it all away now...
Don't let it come apart...
Don't want to see you come apart...
And you give it all away.
You give it all away now.
Don't let it come apart.
Don't want to see you come apart.
And you give it all away.
Give it all the way...
And you give it all the way...
Could you give it all the way?
And you give it all the way...
And you give it all the way...
Could you give it all the way?
Give it all the way...
(ahhhhh)

The English skyline falls down to the future
But no one noticed in this empire

'Cause I'm the greatest denier and I will cut you if you look

The English bloodline clashes in the sun
No one noticed that we are going down, I frowned

Well, I'm the greatest denier, I can cut you with a look

Clashes in the sun, don't speak of it

I'm the greatest denier
I was the greatest denier and I can cut you with a look

Clashing in the sun, start a revolution

Couldn't sleep since then, wake you up when we're gone

10:03
On a fast train
A trick of light
Crossing my eyes
The sky went blank
Calling out your name

Calling out your name

Like the last
Of those fires
You shall burn, into the night

Like a moth,
To the flame
I will turn back again, I'm coming home

Calling out your name

All I've ever known

Distant call
Down the way
Distant train, on the line

I return
To your sign
With the push and the pull of your time

It's all I've ever known

Calling out your name

All I've come along......

Lord, I'm coming home

10:03
On the fast train

Wherever you go you will be with me
And when you do talk you'll be talking to me
But just save your words as we walk on by
With the sky full of birds and the dusk approaching

Climb the long grassy track to the top of winter hill
Climb the real rocky track to the top, I'll see you back
I'll see you back on winter hill

Wherever you go you will return safe
And when you will walk you'll be walking with me
But if comes the day you meet someone new
You will be with them but I'll be thinking of you

Climb the long grassy track to the top of winter hill
Stay with me, see so far at the top, I'll see you back
I'll see you back on winter hill

Well, she travels far and we stay apart
But she crossed her heart on winter hill

Climb the long grassy track to the top
We can't turn back, oh
Climb the real rocky track to the top of winter hill
See you back on winter hill

Johnny be lost
Johnny be calm
Walk away
Don't jump the gun

Cutting the cost
Thinking it through
Look in your own way
Making your own rules

Don't believe
What they say
Johnny be cool, yeah
Johnny be calm

Just the two of us
Makin' fools of us
Just the two of us
Wanna feel again
Kickin' our heels again
Just the two of us



Nothing to lose
So nothing gets lost
Measure the truth
Then measure the cost

So much choice
In trust on
In the universe
Just the two of us
Just the two of us
Just the two of us
Making fools of us
Making fools of us
Wanna feel again
Kickin' our heels again
The two of us

Now I'm Waiting for you

Ooohh

I know
It takes an ocean of trust In the Kingdom of Rust

Tall machines wait in line
So still lost in time
Jets turn and make no sound
Returning to the solid ground
People drift out of time
Watching numbers turn
Seems that I've been waiting here forever

Jetstream, stormy seas
Cast adrift on a troubled dream
I've seen the sleeping ships at night
I will meet you there
The roar of the engine in the air
(Jetstream)

Leave the things you don't need
And the ones that you don't love
Faith and hope keeps our minds together
Your heart's left the ground tonight
Scattered lost in light
Seems that I've been waiting here forever

Jetstream, carbon seas
Cast adrift on a troubled dream
I've seen the silent jets at night
I will meet you there
The roar of the engine high in the air
(Jetstream)

Sleeping ships in the night
Shining steel lost in time
Jets turn make no sound
Returning to the safer ground
People running outta time
Lost in love last in line
Seems I've waited here forever

Jetstream, stormy seas
Cast adrift on a troubled dream
I see the silent jets at night
I will take you there
The roar of the engine pollutes the air

Jetstream, jetstream, jetstream
