biz dinners
and the free champagne
Men in suits who
think they know it all
No one knows me
but they know my name
That's not Real to Me
Hotel Lobby to the aeroplane
Another country
but they start
to look the same
Watch the world behind
a window pane
That's not real to me
When I see my babies run
When all the madness
has been and gone
I raise my family
and live in peace
Now that's what real to me
real to me

Dying flowers
in a dressing room
A dangerous time
to let your head make up
it own mind
Got me thinking
that the spirits flown
That's not real to me
When I see my babies run
When all the madness
has been and gone
I raise my family
and live in peace
Now that's what real to me
Picnics in the garden
and the children they can play
The first day of that summer
And I laze here all the day
Then we'll invite the family
round and drink
some English tea
Then I raise up my finger
And watch football on TV

Now that's what real to me
When I see my babies run
When all the madness
has been and gone
I raise my family and
live in peace
Now that's what's real to me
that's what's real to me
Real to me
Wake up you might be dreamin'
Wake up you might be dreamin'
now

Real to me

Wake up you might be dreamin'
Wake up you might be dreamin' now

Did I hear you right
Cause I thought you said
Let's think it over
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you
Shadows bleeding
through the light
Where a love once shined
so bright
Came without a reason

Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always
black and white
Havent's I always loved you
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's Not enough
But when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
Cause you're only almost here
I would change the world
If I had a chance
Oh won't you let me
Treat me like a child
Throw your arms around me
Please protect me
Bruised and battered
by your words
Dazed and shatterd
how it hurts
Havent's I always loved you
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's Not enough
But when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
Cause you're only almost here

Bruised and battered
by your words
Dazed and shatterd
how it hurts
Havent's I always loved you
But when I need you
You're almost here
Well I never knew
how far behind I'd left you
And when I hold you
You're almost here
Well I'm sorry
that I took our love
for granted
Now I'm with you
I'm close to tears
Cause I know I'm almost here
Only almost here

I was talking last night
To a friend who was thinking
he might
Risk it all for a moment
of lust
and adventure so I told him
You can live everyday
like your last
Pay the price and
the moment will past
It's too late and there's no
second chance
If it's over you got nothing
Well I've been there
The grass was just fine
on this side
Because I've been there
There's no getting back
on that ride
There's no replacing the
love you got
You don't have to lose to see
what you've lost
Well just be true
to your woman

No good living the lie
When it's over the
secret won't die
She'll move on to another guy
She won't love you
like your wife
And I've been there
I don't recommend the pain
Because I've been there
Trust me as your friend
There's nothing to gain
There's no replacing the
love you got
You don't have to lose to see
what you've lost
Oh just be true to your woman

Many years working hard
everyone
Gets tempted by something
They never knew never had
The fantasy overtakes
overrides everything
And you'll get lost in a
hollow world
All those years
they are worth the lot
You only realise
when they've gone
Then just be true
There's no replacing the
love you got
You don't have to lose to see
what you've lost
Just be true to your woman

Have you ever
Been lost in a different world
Where everything you once knew
is gone
And you
find yourself powerless
With everything that exist's
You're numb
woo
Will I ever break free
I search my world
but I can't find you
Your standing there
but I can't touch you
Try to talk but the words are
just not there

I can feel a sense of danger
You stare at me like
I'm a stranger
Paralyzed and
you don't seem to care
The demons in my dreams

If you become a nobody
Blind to your family
Who would you be
And life has gone into reverse
Reliving every hurt
along the way
woo
Everything that you fear
Is calling you and drawing near
I search my world
but I can't find you
Your standing there
but I can't touch you
Try to talk but the words are
just not there

I can feel a sense of danger
You stare at me like
I'm a stranger
Paralyized and
you don't seem to care
The demons in my dreamS

Wake me up and let go

I'm about to explode

I search my world
but I can't find you
Your standing there
but I can't touch you
Try to talk but the words are
just not there

I can feel a sense of danger
You stare at me like
I'm a stranger
Paralyized and
you don't seem to care
The demons in my dreams

It's Another six am
as he stumbles in again
And my mother cries
don't wake the children
Through the tears
I can hear him say
Didn't have much luck today
but he really knows
He just threw it away
He finds his answers
at the bottom of a bottle
And his life is always
fully on the throttle
And he's slowly turning out
just like his father
And he knows
That he's no hero
but he's doing what he can
Trying to make me a better man
He's no hero
but he made me what I am
And stopped me from becoming
another you

Daddy couldn't save hinself
No one ever cared to help
and he looked at me
As what he could have been
Now I know what I've got to be
Everything to make him
proud of me
With my second chance
that he never had
Because his dreams are
at the bottom of his bottle
And he's never gonna be
who he oughta
And he's just a living
image of his father
and he knows
That he's no hero
but he's doing what he can
Trying to make me a better man
He's no hero
but he made me what I am
And stopped me from becoming
another you

The dead and end road
on which I'm running
It's like he already knew
He'd Lived the pain
that would be coming
And I'm proud to say
that he is my father
And it's ok

That he's no hero
but he's doing what he can
Trying to make me a better man
He's no hero
but he made me what I am
And stopped me from becoming
stopped me from becoming
stopped me from becoming
another you
another you
another you
another you
another you
another you
another you
another you
another you

I was born in the heart
of Dublin
To a holy book full of rules
Made get on our knees
every Sunday
with the other fools
We were warped by the
Christian Brothers
In the cell blocks
at our schools
Get a hand print on your skin
From a club of jewels
Go hit me now
That I'm twice your size
We brushed off the accusations
And bowed before your lies
This is the city that
raised me
With the religion
they gave me
Now I'm old enough to know
my own mind
But it was leaving that
saved me
I've seen so much that has
changed me
So just break with your past
Feed your own mind
Cos this Irish son
has moved with the times

Weddings deaths
and baptizing children
That's my debt paid
to the church
I don't need that kind of
salvation
When I get hurt
Don't fill my head with sermons
And force me to believe
This is the city that
raised me
With the religion
they gave me
Now I'm old enough to know
my own mind
But it was leaving that
saved me
I've seen so much that has
changed me
So just break with your past
Feed your own mind

Cos this Irish son
has moved with the times

Our father who art in heaven
Come down here and
make your presence known
We can't do it on our own

The lunatics letrun the asylum
How can we find peace
inside your home
When you can't trust your own
This is the city that
raised me
With the religion
they gave me
Now I'm old enough to know
my own mind
But it was leaving that
saved me
I've seen so much that has
changed me
just break with your past
Feed your own mind

Cos' this Irish son
has moved with the times

Yes this Irish son
has moved with the times

When we fall out i like to go
driving in my car
Listen to something ironic and
end up in a bar
Get an ear full of shit
from a stranger
who's got a broken heart
Weighing up what would
be more painful
Staying with yer man
or going back to her
Doesn't everybody feel this
way sometimes
It's a lose lose situation
for a shitty little crime
You can never win with women
It's pointless tryin to try
It's a lose lose situation
until the day you die

Everybody knows the score
She'll be crying to the
mother in law
Then I'll be sleeping
out with the dog
Must give Inter Flora a call

Doesn't everybody feel this
way sometimes
It's a lose lose situation
for a shitty little crime
You can never win with women
It's pointless tryin to try
It's a lose lose situation
until the day you die

Then we make up
I'll be walking
on egg shells for a day
I'll clean the house
in the hope
that I might get a lay
I think back to that
drunken stranger
something that he said
You made your bed
so lie in it she'll be
quiet when your dead
Doesn't everybody feel this
way sometimes
It's a lose lose situation
for a shitty little crime
You can never win with women
It's pointless tryin to try
It's a lose lose situation
until the day you die
It's a lose lose situation
until the day you die

Wake up you might be dreamin'
Wake up you might be dreamin'
now

It seems like only yesterday
I held you in my arms and said
You will never need to
fear the dark
But unforeseen misery has come
Between your Mommy and me
And we can love you more
now we are apart
Daddy he's got to go away
Coz there's just no other way
To live this through
Someday
you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
for me and you
Sorry love Daddy

Everyday is filled with pain
But never feel that
you're to blame
Sometimes life breaks
in mysterious ways

I can't make it up to you
Believe me I am trying to
No matter what you'll
always be my babies
Daddy he's got to go away
Coz there's just no other way
To live this through
Someday
you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
for me and you
Sorry love Daddy

Daddy he's got to go away

This wasn't what I planned
for me and you
Sorry love Daddy

Sorry love Daddy

The Summer got cold
And the wheels
came off my mobile
home and then
My face it got cold
And the ride of my life
broke down
ten minutes from home
God don't love me anymore
Once again I've drawn the
short straw I can't take it
anymore
The world is spinning round
then I fell off and
never hit the ground
It turned me upside down
my heart fell out now
I'm a walking disaster

walking disaster

Reversal of roles
now the shoe is on the other
foot for just now
No rhythm and soul
Now I lost my mojo a no go
nasty suprise
God don't love me anymore
Once again I've drawn the
short straw I can't take it
anymore
The world is spinning round
then I fell off and
never hit the ground
It turned me upside down
my heart fell out now
I'm a walking disaster

walking disaster

walking disaster

walking disaster

I can't take it anymore
The world is spinning round
then I fell off and
never hit the ground
It turned me upside down
my heart fell out now

The world is spinning round
then I fell off and
never hit the ground
It turned me upside down
my heart fell out now
I'm a walking disaster

walking disaster

She wipes the tear from
her brow
She's been crying again
She's been walking into
walls again
Behind her quivering smile
there's a secret
That goes deeper than the cuts
she hides
Her head's spinning around
He beat her soul to the ground
A grown woman in pain
And all she longs to be
is that little girl again

She screams inside
and all she wants to be
All she wants to be
is yesterdays child
She wants to hide
she can runaway
to be safty
is yesterdays child

Curled up shivering alone
she's been hurt again
She's been walking into
walls again
Her children keep her alive
They're her sanity
but they're the
reason why she has to stay
A grown woman in pain
and all she longs to be
is that little girl again

She screams inside
and all she wants to be
All she wants to be
is yesterdays child
She wants to hide
she can runaway
to be safty
is yesterdays child
yesterdays child
yesterdays child
yesterdays child

She screams inside
and all she wants to be
All she wants to be
is yesterdays child
She wants to hide
she can runaway
to be safty
is yesterdays child
