from The Truth About Cats & Dogs (고양이와 개에 관한 진실) by Howard Shore [ost] (1996)
You do something to me - something deep inside
I'm hanging on the wire - for a love I'll never find You do something wonderful - then chase it all away Mixing my emotions - that throws me back again Hanging on the wire, I'm waiting for the change I'm dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame - an' feel real again You do something to me - somewhere deep inside I'm hoping to get close to - a peace I cannot find - Dancing through the fire - just to catch a flame Just to get close to, just close enough - To tell you that..... You do something to me - something deep inside. |

We're words upon a window
Written there in steam In the heat of the moment At the birth of a dream Vapors passing really So I'm touched by the thoughts In the fleeting minutes after The time that we've come Come and go, you know, where the wind blows An' though I couldn't define I can only tell you that I Got a heavy soul Tuesdays dressed in shearling Anchored on belief In the sunlight on the water Or rain upon a leaf And I'm touched by its' beauty And I hope to touch you too 'Cause I still seek the same things That I once sought to be true And you know, that where the wind blows Tho' I wouldn't be lying, when I tell you that I Got a heavy soul It's a joy to know I've got a heavy soul We're words upon a window Written there in steam In the heat of the moment Everything is what it seems Vapors passing nearly So I'm touched by the thought That I can't be beaten and I can't be bought And you'll know.................... That where the wind blows I don't think I'd be lyin' When I tell you that I I've got a heavy soul |

Yellow strands mingle into red
Warm air blows, down upon her soft bed She licks my face and the feeling spreads I'm up in Suzes' room - flowers bloom-ing-ful I'm up in Suzes' room - where life goes so soon She's anything that you can call free She's everything that she wants to be She has everything that you could want to see I'm up in Suzes' room - flowers full in bloom I'm up in Suzes' room - where time goes so soon Soon, against the moon A big sky paints - but she calls the tunes She's cool that way - how I wish it could stay Forever that way No one moves - no one can When luck rolls its' coins, they land where they stand To make us everything that you never planned I'm up in Suzes' room - people bloom-ing-ful Up in Suzes' room - where life goes so soon |

What's in a life
If you don't live it, baby It's just getting on by With a promise, what if, maybe Hanging around Waiting for something to fall And once in a while The paper smile must come a-way What's in a life If you don't live it, baby What's in a kiss If you can't feel it, baby The lips maybe sweet But are they sweet enough to contain it You're wasting your time Hanging out of windows painting And once in a while The paper smile must come and go And where it blows Who knows And where it goes It goes I'm glad to see it go I'm glad to see it go And what's in a dream If you can't be it, baby Look away, you're painted smile Look away, you're painted smile Wipe away your painted smile Wipe away your painted smile Look away you're painted smile Wipe away your painted smile Painted smile, painted smile Painted smile, painted smile |

You have no gods, they have all disowned you You have no love, so you take it out on People's lives in progress That's what keeps you going when you're savages Savages, you can dress it up Give it a name and a fancy uniform And a flag to fly to hide behind Can you not see the truth that's on the ground You have no love It has all gone cold on you You never have, so you take it out on Those whose love is growing That's what you hate most, when you're savages Do you not see the love is coming down? |

Whispering through my window pane Wake me up and whole again With a sway Skate upon-something, Get me up and out of bed Put a volt right through my head To beyond You been down and out and blue Take no notice of the moon, shame Ol' man river's after you Said you ain't done what you said you would It's a shame Shame Roll along summer Breathing life into the world Creating space that wasn't there Before Forever in your shadow It's darkness I can face (I'm) proud to feel I can find a place Somewhere behind You been down and out and blue Take no notice of the moon, shame Ol' man river's after you Said you ain't done what you said you would It's a shame, shame Shame on you Roll along, beautiful lover, Show me things I've never seen Lighting up an ancient beam, for me to see ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By PAUL WELLER <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy,
Far away in the distance, with the sun in your eyes, Can you see the footprints, that have merged with the sand, And you're trying to find them, you find only dry land. Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy, Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man, If you can, if you can. Can the future, with every step you take, yet you feel your no further, and your walking away, Can you tell the difference between the pepple and the man Far away in the ocean, with his back on dry sand. Can you tell the difference, between the pepple and the boy, Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man, If you can, if you can. |

Can you put a smile back on - all these different faces
Of all these people from - such different places And if you can succeed - what then will you achieve With a different tune to play - you've been saving for a rainy day Will you heal the scar that's on - the years been wasted The tears spent on the past - just filling spaces Or is love forever gone banished to a smaller part Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart An' if you wanna shoot the moon - make sure that you know why Careful fly too soon - better let someone else try I'm the weaver of your dreams - I get rid of your bogeyman I'm here to smash the shell you're under An' get you into another thing - I'm the weaver of your dreams - I put paid to the rocketman I'm here to break the spell you're under And get you started with another plan Could you put a kiss back on - the lips so twisted Waiting for the chance to start - dipping into wishes Or is love forever gone - banished to a smaller part Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart And in the midst of the darkest night Think of me and hold me tight So that I might live to see All the weaving of my dreams. |

Where the world's awaiting - I'll wait for you love - But I close my eyes, as there's pain too in paradise - Hey baby say - just what you're thinking - Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking - Know I feel it - I know you feel it too - Across the water, there's a boat that - will take us away. It is shining for me All I need to be But I can't find the key The one to make me believe- Late at night - When the world is dreaming - Way past the stars - That ignore our fate & all twinkle too late to save us - so we save ourselves. Hey baby say - just what you're thinking Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking Know I feel it - I know you feel it too - Across the water, there's a boat that - Will take us away - Far from the madness - out of the sadness Into sunlight - out of the sinking - You know I feel it, I know you it too - Across the water, there's a boat that will take us away - And there we will stay |

Or am I so jaded I can't see or feel - like a man been tainted Numbed by the effect - aware of the muse Too in touch with myself - I light the fuse I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- As I light a bitter fuse Time is on loan - only ours to borrow What I can't be today - I can be tomorrow And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse It's a bigger part - When our instincts act A shot in the dark - A movement in black And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands (I don't have a plan) I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse |

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy,
Far away in the distance, with the sun in your eyes, Can you see the footprints, that have merged with the sand, And you're trying to find them, you find only dry land. Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy, Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man, If you can, if you can. Can the future, with every step you take, yet you feel your no further, and your walking away, Can you tell the difference between the pepple and the man Far away in the ocean, with his back on dry sand. Can you tell the difference, between the pepple and the boy, Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man, If you can, if you can. |

A police car and a screaming siren,
A pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete, A baby wailing and stray dog howling, The screech of brakes and lamplight's blinking That's entertainment. That's entertainment. A smash of glass and the rumble of boots, An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth, Paint spattered walls and the cry of a tomcat, Lights going out and a kick in the balls I say that's entertainment. That's entertainment. Days of speed and slow time Mondays, Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday, Watching the news and not eating your tea, A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls I say that's entertainment. That's entertainment. Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning, Opening the windows and breathing in petrol, An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard, Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays, That's entertainment. That's entertainment. Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes, Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume, A hot summers' day and sticky black tarmac, Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were faraway That's entertainment. That's entertainment. Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight, Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude, Getting a cab and traveling on buses, Reading the graffiti about slashed seat affairs That's entertainment. |

Like pebbles on a beach
Kicked around, displaced by feet Like broken stones - all trying to get home. Like a loser's reach Too slow & short to hit the peaks So lost & alone - trying to get home. As another piece shatters Another little bit gets lost And what else really matters - at such a cost? Like a loser's reach - Too slow & short to hit the peaks So lost & alone - trying to get home. Trying to get home - Like broken stones - All trying to get home. |

I play out my role
Why I've even been out walking They tell me that it helps But I know when I'm beaten All those lonely films And all those lonely parties But now the feeling is off-screen An' the tears for real not acted, anymore I'm all mixed up inside I want to run but I can't hide And however much we try We can't escape the truth and the fact is Don't matter what I do It don't matter what I do Don't matter what I do Don't matter what I do Don't matter what I do 'Cause I end up hurting you One more covered sigh And one more glance you know means goodbye Can't you see that's why We're dashing ourselves against the rocks of a lifetime (In my mind different voices call) What once was pleasure now's pain for us all (In my heart only shadows fall) I once stood proud now I feel so small (I don't know whether to love or hurt) The long hot summer just passed me by |

I was half in mind I was half in need,
And as the rain came down I dropped to my knees and prayed I said "oh Heavenly thing please cleanse my soul, I've seen all on offer and I'm not impressed at all". I was halfway home I was half insane, And every shop window I looked in just looked the same I said send me a sign to save my life 'Cause at this moment in time there is nothing certain in These day's of mine Why'see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you That I know as much as the day I was born And though I wasn't asked (I might as well stay) And promise myself each and every day that is When you're knocked on your back an' your life's a flop And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else But to shout to the top shout! |

Better stop dreaming of the quiet life,
Cause it's one you'll never know And quit running for that runaway bus, Cos their rosey days are few And, stop apologizing for the things you've never done; Cause time is short and life is cruel, But it's up to us to change This town called malice. Rows and rows of disused milk Stand dying in the dairy yard And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk Bottles to their hearts Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come Fast and furious In a town called malice. Struggle after struggle, year after year That atmosphere's a fine blend of ice, I'm almost stone cold dead In a town called malice A whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef Gets dashed against the co-op To either cut down on beer or the kid's new gear It's a big decision in a town called malice The ghost of a steam train, echoes down my track It's at the moment bound for nowhere, Just going round and round Playground kids and creaking swings, Lost laughter in the breeze I could go on for hours and I probably will, But I'd sooner put some joy back In this town called malice. |

and these leafy mysteries
and the silence of the eve and in the shady tree’s I swing & in the dappled orchards heat where I lie & wait wait for the breeze to carry me to a place I can lose myself no time just somewhere else with a face I can recognise -I forget sometimes that’s always been here And all these leafy mysteries & the changing of the seas & all the secrets of the tide just open up the world I find- so small to me when there’s so much to see so much to be day up & the grasses hiss get up! Like sweet lips they kiss see now that you’re part of it I forget sometimes That’s always been here And these leafy mysteries Have always been & always will & in the shady trees I swing & in the dappled orchard’s heat -where I lie & wait wait for the breeze to hunger me- wait for the trees to breathe in to me |

The distant echo -
of faraway voices boarding faraway trains To take them home to the ones that they love and who love them forever The glazed, dirty steps - repeat my own and reflect my thoughts Cold and uninviting, partially naked Except for toffee wrapers and this morning's papers Mr. Jones got run down Headlines of death and sorrow - they tell of tomorrow Madmen on the rampage And I'm down in the tube station at midnight I fumble for change - and pull out the Queen Smiling, beguiling I put in the money and pull out a plum Behind me Whispers in the shadows - gruff blazing voices Hating, waiting "Hey boy" they shout "have you got any money?" And I said "I've a little money and a take away curry, I'm on my way home to my wife. She'll be lining up the cutlery, You know she's expecting me Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork" And I'm down in the tube station at midnight I first felt a fist, and then a kick I could now smell their breath They smelt of pubs and Wormwood Scrubs And too many right wing meetings My life swam around me It took a look and drowned me in its own existence The smell of brown leather It blended in with the weather It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth It blocked all my senses Couldn't see, hear, speak any longer And I'm down in the tube station at midnight I said I was down in the tube station at midnight The last thing that I saw As I lay there on the floor Was "Jesus Saves" painted by an atheist nutter And a British Rail poster read "Have an Awayday - a cheap holiday - Do it today!" I glanced back on my life And thought about my wife 'Cause they took the keys - and she'll think it's me And I'm down in the tube station at midnight The wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold I'm down in the tube station at midnight Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight |

Here we go again, it's Monday at last,
He's heading for the Waterloo line, To catch the 8 a.m. fast, its usually dead on time, Hope it isn't late, got to be there by nine. Pin stripe suit, clean shirt and tie, Stops off at the corner shop, to buy The Times 'Good Morning Smithers-Jones' 'How's the wife and home?' 'Did you get the car you've been looking for?' Let me get inside you, let me take control of you, We could have some good times, All this worry will get you down, I'll give you a new meaning to life - I don't think so. Sitting on the train, you're nearly there You're part of the production line, You're the same as him, you're like tin-sardines, Get out of the pack, before they peel you back. Arrive at the office, spot on time, The clock on the wall hasn't yet struck nine, 'Good Morning Smithers Jones' 'The boss wants to see you alone' 'I hope its the promotion you've been looking for' Let me get inside you, let me take control of you, We could have some good times, All this worry will get you down, I'll give you a new meaning to life - I don't think so. 'Come in Smithers old boy' 'Take a seat, take the weight off your feet' 'I've some news to tell you' 'There's no longer a position for you' - 'Sorry Smithers Jones'. Put on the kettle and make some tea It's all a part of feeling groovie Put on your slippers turn on the TV It's all a part of feeling groovie It's time to relax, now you've worked your arse off But the only one smilin' is the sun tanned boss Work and work and work and work till you die There's plenty more fish in the sea to fry |

I sat alone with the dreams of children
Weeping willows and tall dark building, I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children But woke up sweating from this modern nightmare, and I was alone, no one was there I caught a glimpse from the dreams of children I got a feeling of optimism But woke up to a grey and lonely picture The streets below left me feeling dirty, and I was alone, no one was there I was alone, no one was there Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight... You will crack on your dreams tonight I fell in love with the dreams of children I saw a vision of all the happy days I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children But woke up sweating from this modern nightmare, and I was alone, no one was there I was alone, no one was there Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight... You will crack on your dreams tonight You will choke on your dreams tonight |

A police car and a screamin' siren
Pneumatic drill and ripped-up concrete A baby wailing, a stray dog howling The screech of brakes and lamplight blinking That's entertainment That's entertainment A smash of glass and the rumble of boots An electric train and a ripped-up phone booth Paint-splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat Lights going out and a kick in the balls I say that's entertainment That's entertainment La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah Days of speed and slow-time Mondays Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday Watching the news and not eating your tea A freezing cold flat with damp on the walls I say that's entertainment That's entertainment La la la la la La la la la la Waking up at 6 A.M. on a cool warm morning Opening the windows and breathing in petrol An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard Watching the telly and thinking 'bout your holidays That's entertainment That's entertainment La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume A hot summer's day and sticky black tarmac Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were far away That's entertainment That's entertainment Two lovers kissing masks a scream of midnight Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude Getting a cab and travelling on buses Reading the grafitti about slashed-seat affairs I say that's entertainment That's entertainment La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah La la la la la, ah |

It's not important for you to know my name
Nor I to know yours If we communicate for two minutes only It will be enough For knowing that someone in this world Feels as desperate as me And what you give is what you get It doesn't matter if we never meet again What we have said will always remain If we get through for two minutes only It will be a start! For knowing that someone in this life Loves with a passion called hate And what you give is what you get If I never ever see you If I never ever see you If I never ever see you - again And what you give is what you get! |

Down in amongst the streets tonight
Books will burn, people laugh and cry in their turmoil (turmoil turns rejoiceful) Shed your fears and lose your guilt Tonight we burn responsibility in the fire We'll watch the flames grow higher! But if you get too burnt, you can't come back home And as I was standing by the edge I could see the faces of those led pissing theirselves laughing (and the flames grew) Their mad eyes buldged their flushed faces said The weak get crushed as the strong grow stronger We feast on flesh and drink on blood Live by fear and dispise love in a crises (what with today's high prices) Bring some paper and bring some wood Bring what's left of all your love for the fire We'll watch the flames grow higher! But if you get too burnt - you can't come back home And as I was standing by the edge I could see the faces of those led pissing theirselves laughing (and the flames grew) Their mad eyes buldged their flushed faces said The weak get crushed as the strong grow stronger In the funeral pyre We'll watch the flames grow higher But if you get too burnt - you can't come back home (well I feel so old, when I feel so young well I just can't grow up to meet the demands) |

In echoed steps I walked across an empty dream
I looked across this world, there was no one to be seen This empty feeling turned and quietly walked away I saw no warmth in life - no love was in my eyes I stared a century thinking this will never change As I hesitated, time rushed onwards without me Too scared to break the spell too small to take a fall But the Absolute luck is - love is in our hearts! I lost some hours thinking of it I need the strength to go and get what I want I lost a lifetime thinking of it an' lost an era daydreaming like I do I stared a century thinking this will never change As I hesitated, time rushed onwards without me Too scared to break the spell too small to take a fall But the Absolute luck is - love is in our hearts! In echoed steps you walk across an empty dream But look around this world, there's millions to be seen Come see the tyrants panic see their crumbling empires fall Then tell 'em we don't fight for fools - 'cos love is in our hearts! I lost some hours thinking of it I need the strength to go and get what I want I lost a lifetime thinking of it an' lost an era daydreaming like I do You can lose some hours thinking of it You need the strength to go and get what you want You can lose a lifetime thinking of it And lose an era daydreaming like I do oooooooo |

Better stop dreaming of the quiet life
'Cos it's the one we'll never know And quit running for that runaway bus 'Cos those rosey days are few And...stop apologising for the things you've never done 'Cos time is short and life is cruel But it's up to us to change This town called Malice Rows and rows of disused milk floats Stand dying in the dairy yard And a hundred lonely housewives Clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry It's enough to make you stop believing When tears come fast and furious In a town called Malice Struggle after struggle, year after year The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice I'm almost stone cold dead In a town called Malice A whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef Gets dashed against the co-op To either cut down on beer or the kids' new gear It's a big decision in a town called Malice The ghost of a steam train echoes down my track It's at the moment bound for nowhere Just going 'round and 'round Playground kids and creaking swings Lost laughter in the breeze I could go on for hours and I probably will But I'd sooner put some joy back In this town called Malice |

Your precious love - that means so much
will it ever stop or will I just lose touch What I want to say - but my words just fail Is that I need it so I can't help myself Like a hungry child - I just help myself And when I'm all full up - I go out to play But I don't mean to bleed you dry Or take you over for the rest of your life It's just that I need something solid in mine Lonely as the moors on a winter's morning Quiet as the sea on a good calm night In your tranquil shadow - I try and follow I hear your distant show clicks To the midnight beat - I feel trapped in sorrow In this imagery But that's how I am and why I need you so |

In your white lace and your wedding bells
You look the picture of contented new wealth But from the on-looking fool who believed your lies I wish this grave would open up and swallow me alive For the bitterest pill is hard to swallow The love I gave hangs in sad coloured, mocking shadows When the wheel of fortune broke, you fell to me Out of grey skies to change my misery The vacant spot, your beating heart took its place But now I watch smoke leave my lips and fill an empty room For the bitterest pill is hard to swallow The love I gave hangs in sad coloured, mocking shadows The bitterest pill is mine to take If I took if for a hundred years, I couldn't feel anymore ill Now autumn's breeze blows summer's leaves through my life Twisted and broken dawn, no days with sunlight The dying spark, you left your mark on me The promise of your kiss, but with someone else For the bitterest pill is mine to swallow The love I gave hangs in sad coloured, mocking shadows The bitterest pill is mine to take If I took if for a hundred years, I couldn't feel anymore ill! |

Beat surrender -
Come on boy, come on girl Succumb to the beat surrender All the things that I care about (are packed into one punch) All the things that I'm not sure about (are sorted out at once) And as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end That bullshit is bullshit, it just goes by different names All the things that I shout about (but never act upon) All the courage and the dreams that I have (but seem to wait so long) My doubt is cast aside, watch phonies run to hide The dignified don't even enter in the game And if you feel there's no passion No quality sensation Seize the young determination Show the fakers you ain't foolin' You'll see me come runnin' To the sound of your strummin' Fill my heart with joy and gladness I've lived too long in shadows of sadness |

SUNFLOWER - Paul Weller
I don't care how long this lasts We have no future - we have no past I write this now while I'm in control I'll choose the words and how the melody goes - Along winding streets, we walked hand in hand And how I long for that sharp wind To take my breath away again I'd run my fingers through your hair Hair like a wheatfield, I'd run through That I'd run through - And I miss you so - I miss you so No you're gone, I feel so alone I miss you so I'd send you a flower - a sunflower bright While you cloud my days, messing up my nights And all the way up to the top of your head Sunshower kisses, I feld we had And I miss you so - I miss you so All I gotta do, is think of you - and I miss you so Baby I'm afraid to say why - I miss you so CAN YOU HEAL US (HOLY MAN) - Paul Weller Crystal words, that hang so fine - But none will stop us falling Pulling faster all the time - Powerless to warnings If you feel the hand of God - Can you guide it holy man? But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement Still saying! Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry Everybody gets their time Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you Split the Father and the Son - Hand words to ease them In the other is a gun - baptized by fear, and If you have the hand of God - Can you heal us, holy man? But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement Still saying! Hang on tight, hang on strong How much longer can this go on But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing set to confuse Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry Every fear must have its time Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you. Can you bring the hand of God? Can you stop the killing? Get us back to hope and love - Never more be needed - Still saying! Bloods gone bad, bad to worse Worse to bad and back again But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing sent to confuse Momma don't weep, Daddy don't cry Every fear must have its time Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you. WILD WOOD - Paul Weller High tide - mid afternoon People fly by, in the traffics boom Knowing - where you're blowing Getting to where, you should be going. Don't let, them get you down Making you feel, guilty about Golden rain, bring you riches All the good things - you deserve now. Climbing, forever trying Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood Now theres, no justice There's only yourself - that you can trust in And I said - high tide, mid afternoon People fly by, in the traffics boom Knowing - just where you're blowing Getting to where, you should be going. Day by day, your world fades away Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say Golden rain will bring you riches All the good things - you deserve now - and I say Climbing, forever trying Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood ALL THE PICTURES ON THE WALL - Paul Weller And all the pictures on the wall Serve only to remind you of it all The wasted days we could have lived Now we're left with nothing left to give There was a time I really loved you But when that was I just can't say As all the memories merge into one As each day becomes each day The clock hands ticking on the wall Are just reminders of it all The wasted days we could have lived Now we're left with nothing left to give We used to meet each others' eyes And that's all we'd have to say Now we don't talk that much at all The further our eyes seem to stray And in a funny kind of way This empty room was full one day Full of love that we once shared - now it all looks so bare The silent walls whose cracks I feel - But is there room to let the hatred heal? HAS MY FIRE REALLY GONE OUT? And when I open my eyes - will it then be morning? First rays of summer sun - coming down and shining And if I open my heart and say all that you would want Hope, faith and all I believe will be there to greet me And if I open my head, remember all that I said Hey baby, what will you find - coming down to meet you? A lot of words but no one talking I don't want no part of that Something real is what I'm seeking One clear voice in the wilderness And put an end to all your doubts - Has my fire really, really gone out? COUNTRY - Paul Weller I know a place not far from here Where life's sweet perfume fills the air And if you want, I'll take you there If you want, I'll take you there Into the light out of the dark Where only love can heal your heart And if you want I'll make a start If you want - I'll make a start This place I say, half hour away Is that so far to go? - so near And further on we'll find the time And lose the discontent we feel - that we feel I feel the time we've yet to reach Is not yet within our own belief But I feel sure that time has come If it goes on at all - if it goes on and on - if it goes on and on I know a place not far from here Where life's sweet perfume fills the air And if you want we'll lay a while there If you want, we'll lay a while there |

A storm is raging, inside my head The wind is howling, such thoughts of death Why am I so lost and confused? Can't find the reason, for feeling blue There's so much I can't explain Hope this season changes soon. The lightning strikes and the mountains fall The sea's come crashing, against it all Hang on tight, in the tides of change And get your bearings from those still sane There's so much I've yet to feel Hope the seasons change me too. The serpent tangles, in the lion's claw A cloud of darkness, hangs over all As fires soar, in search of sky So blow embers, like fire flies Hoping love is where they'll lie, And the season change us too. THE WEAVER - Paul Weller Can you put a smile back on - all these different faces Of all these people from - such different places And if you can succeed - what then will you achieve With a different tune to play - you've been saving for a rainy day Will you heal the scar that's on - the years been wasted The tears spent on the past - just filling spaces Or is love forever gone, banished to a smaller part Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart An' if you wanna shoot the moon - make sure that you know why Careful, fly too soon - better let someone else try I'm the weaver of your dreams - I get rid of your bogeyman I'm here to smash the shell you're under An' get you into another thing - I'm the weaver of your dreams - I put paid to the rocketman I'm here to break the spell you're under And get you started with another plan Could you put a kiss back on - the lips so twisted Waiting for the chance to start - dipping into wishes Or is love forever gone - banished to a smaller part Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart And in the midst of the darkest night Think of me and hold me tight So that I might live to see All the weaving of my dreams |

Through your new eyes I've come to see How beautiful my life can be And I'll keep this wish this time, I think And blow it in with a wish upon your head And I hope the world will heal itself And our worn out souls along with it So that you'll get the chance to see A summer's blue sky behind green trees |

I saw you today, or at least I think it was
It's hard to say, we've all changed so much, Compelled to look, but I hid my face It's hard to trace, these feelings Gone so soon, the time I spent with you And like an old, old tune-keeps running through my head- I wanted to say, so many things But my mouth went dry, and one word and I'd cry. Slender bride, your beauty shines from you And forever more, I'll be on your side for sure, A light in your life, that always burns for you As time passes, so quickly. The final stage, we've both reached some way As we board our trains to different stations And the parts we play, and the things we say, Words on the way, to discovery |

I?m hanging on the wire - with love I?ll never find You do something wonderful - then chase it all away Mixing my emotions - that throws me back again Hanging on the wire, I?m waiting for the change I?m dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame- An?feel real again. You do something to me - somewhere deep inside I?m hoping to get close to- a peace I cannot find- Dancing through the fire- just to catch a flame Just to get close to, just close enough- To tell you that??

Or am I so jaded I can't see or feel - like a man been tainted Numbed by the effect - aware of the muse Too in touch with myself - I light the fuse I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- As I light a bitter fuse Time is on loan - only ours to borrow What I can't be today - I can be tomorrow And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse It's a bigger part - When our instincts act A shot in the dark - A movement in black And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands (I don't have a plan) I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse |

My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand, More advice to fill up your head More empty words from the living dead- Who seek to explain what can't really be said- And how disappointed I was To turn out after all - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls- Too much will kill you - too little ain't enough You shout my name but I'll call your bluff Most who see me - see me not for real We fake & fawn - play games 'til dawn But I could see what you can see And I hate too what you hate in me - And how disappointed I am To find me part of no plan - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls "Don't lose control" - I tell myself, Life can take many things away - Some people will try - and take it all They'll pick off pieces as they watch you crawl And how disappointed I was To turn out after all - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls- That shatters when it falls. |

from Paul Weller - Stanley Road (Deluxe Edition) (2005)
You do something to me - something deep inside
I?m hanging on the wire - with love I?ll never find You do something wonderful - then chase it all away Mixing my emotions - that throws me back again Hanging on the wire, I?m waiting for the change I?m dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame- An?feel real again. You do something to me - somewhere deep inside I?m hoping to get close to- a peace I cannot find- Dancing through the fire- just to catch a flame Just to get close to, just close enough- To tell you that?? You do something to me-something deep inside |
