I've come to fetch my Carol I've wandered in the mud Dirty sheets outside broken windows Lies that poor folks never tell rich ones
Louder still is the sound of love Is the sound of love
Where she falls in the leaves and [Incomprehensible] I know the beauty of her song The blood of priests run in her veins She shakes her fists when [Incomprehensible]
Stronger still is light of her soul Is the light of her soul
And I've come to help her now My footsteps follow Her black hair in my face My arms around her waist
My love for her is a speckled bird Animal leading in the snow
Slink back under the falling steps Black rights and crooked sticks Unforeseen victims of modern sin Walk the dark ring and then more
Daylight brings the bells of joy The bells of joy
I've come to help her now My footsteps follow Her black hair in my face My arms around her waist
I've come to fetch my Carol I've wandered in the mud Dirty sheets outside broken windows Lies that poor folks never tell rich ones
Louder still is the sound of love Is the sound of love
Daylight, comes a sound We walked across Clifton Bridge Which way would it be, up or down? We laid our cards on the table
I woke up before the sun Which way is the way Between the heart and the soul You spoke with my words tangled up inside
Some people come here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls
Some people came here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls
We both have tragedy In our youth I met your brother and sister They stood by me in the ring Your green eyes in the sun
Some people come here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls
Some people came here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls
Some people come here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls
Some people came here to die We came here to live There's a hope in our hearts There's a future in our souls There's a future in our souls There's a future in our souls
Daylight, comes a sound We walked across Clifton Bridge Which way would be, up or down?
Poor Michael's boat is taking in water That won't surprise some of you He set off with so many big plans Ain't it funny how big plans fall through
Still I trust in one moment there with you Know when that's a chance I will take [Incomprehensible] I still got away in poor Michael's boat
I will for my love dress made of linen With diamonds and pearls Same for me, how little [Incomprehensible] left you Away from the shore
Still I trust in one moment there with you Know when that's a chance I will take [Incomprehensible] I still got away in poor Michael's boat
Just you take a walk down by little church See the red face in the sun Know that when you walk in his name There goes you and the one with grace and love
Still I trust in one moment there with you Know when that's a chance I will take [Incomprehensible] I still got away in poor Michael's boat
Poor Michael's boat is taking in water That won't surprise some of you Poor Michael's boat is taking in water That won't surprise some of you
Once I lost my self-respect I was stranded in blue and all by myself Then my luck came up to me I want to ride with you by the sea
Oh, my love These traveling blues got a hold of me It makes no difference what you do or where you stay When you come home, you will know your name
A gypsy by the footprints standing in the rain Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express
True the station was empty then Light bulbs were broken, announcements grim Children to follow, how they talk Children to follow, where they walk
Where's my home? How could I lose this in a day? It makes no difference what you do or where you stay When you come home, you will know your name
A gypsy by the footprints standing in the rain Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express
Ancient survivor from the parish far away With the dream they all share Words fly through the station
Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express Here comes the National Express
There's such joy and sweet moments To be found in this world We know they'll come to an end Just how makes our hearts hurt Salvation blues and these blues will help us all
[Incomprehensible] 'Til we do something good In the morning, the things we once did Overboard, false friends ignored
All these long ends and the gifts we had to give How did we live? Tuesday is trash day Leave the clothes outside the door Salvation blues and these blues will help us all
There's all kinds of death tricks Roamin' in these hills There's all kinds of medicine That will make you ill Salvation blues and these blues will help us all
[Incomprehensible] 'Til we do something good In the morning, the things we once did Overboard, false friends ignored
All these long ends and the gifts we had to give How did we live? Tuesday is trash day Leave the clothes outside the door Salvation blues and these blues will help us all
There's such joy and sweet moments To be found in this world There's such joy and sweet moments To be found in this world
Such joy in sweet moments To be found in this world There's such joy and sweet moments To be found in this world
I remember our winter song Slipping on a frozen lake There I'll miss you when you're gone Oh, this winter song Another cup of Brunel wine
Dreams that once seemed so sweet Are silent empty streets Streets of tears stained walks go by And I'll miss you when you're near You're thoughts are just like the stars
Saturdays, hope is raised By endless stories of desire And I remember our winter song Another cup of Brunel wine
Saturdays, hope is raised By endless stories of desire And I remember our winter song Another cup of Brunel wine
I remember our winter song Slipping on a frozen lake There I'll miss you when you're gone Oh, this winter song Another cup of Brunel wine
