1. All Of Our Faces Here at the gaze of the blazing eyes Here at the aim of the pointing finger Teach us a lesson and send us to war Is it the cure to make men of us all They know all of our faces See no yellow hair, blue eyes They know all of our faces In dark days, scapegoats blood spills All of us soiled 'neath the creamy skins All of us charged with imaginary sin When we are the blameless and we are innocent We are innocent |
2. Angel The sun has risen and it has smiled Why cant you just once just be a child ? I'm not expecting anything wild You're like a man who just sold his soul Sat in the shadows, sad and cold Your shoulders young, but somehow your head's too old Who'd ever chose, to be in your shoes Oh my blue angel You had three wishes and still you cried Are you never satisfied ? The child inside you has long since died And here I offer a straw to clutch You haven't noticed it as such The shoes you're wearing they must pinch too much Who'd ever choose, to be in your shoes Oh my blue angel, angel, angel, angel |
3. No Eden You ask You may say "Who Cares ?" I do... And so should you I see no Eden There is no Eden I see no Eden There is no reason Bough breaks ! Snakes may fall... Who's scared... I am But so are you I see no Eden..... Believe and realise The candy clouds have gone Remember springtimes Forgotten long ago All you who hear Should heed to the call Relive and believe Or we again must fall |
4. Say We'll Never (Heaven) He dreams of release as life goes on And all for his faith, his face is drawn For ever and a day he sings his praise Still living in fear of Judgement Day Say we'll never come down from Heaven No, we never will ! With this ring, I claim you With my name I name you He dreams of release as time drags on The jailed and the jailer, hand in hand In Heaven this was made to last for years A promise intended to end in tears |
5. Set Sail Silky sea on sinking sand Make your heart this fating minute Leave your head with nothing in it Set sail my love Let sail my love Lullaby before the storm Raising masts may drag me down At your mercy let me drown Set sail my love Let sail my love Treasure says that we were pure Shells that whisper in my pocket There's a secret door unlocking Let sail my love Set sail my love Treasure says that we look pale Shells that whisper in the darkness There's a secret dawn (I'm learning?) Set sail my love Let sail my love Set sail my love Let sail my love |
6. Understand So tired of lying here For a thousand years So sleeping beauty wakes, and shakes The dust that holds her down So what will we wear And what shall we do This twisted mesh of wire inspires no-one I don't believe the lies And nobody understands Understand... How could you ever Understand Cinderella hides a masochistic streak So sick of tending fires Desires to burn the house down Kicking of her shoes Barefoot she'll run, she'll, she'll run With nothing much to lose |
7. Where Will You Find It Do you mind if, I remind you Love is blind, still, hope you find it You know it doesn't grow on trees Where will you find it ? Will you, will you, will you ? Where will you find it now ? Hidden treasure, pain and pleasure All your searching, is it worth it ? Your prayers are wearing at your knees Where will you find it ? |
8. White Horses On white horses let me ride away To my world of dreams so far away Let me run To the sun To a world my heart can understand It's a gentle warm and wonderland Far away Stars away Where the clouds are made of candy floss As the day is born When the stars are gone We'll race to meet the dawn You and I can only see the grey Of a sad and very lonely day That’s when I softly sigh On white horses Snow white horses Let me ride away Away Away Away To where the clouds are made of candy floss As the day is born When the stars are gone We'll race to meet the dawn You and I can only see the grey Of a sad and very lonely day That’s when I softly sigh On white horses Snow white horses Let me ride away Away You and I can only see the grey Of a sad and very lonely day That’s when I softly sigh |
9. Will You Surrender Heaven blessed or man possessed Riding through the forest Through the trees, across the seas Storming through the tempest Will you surrender Will you surrender Oh will you all surrender Now will you surrender Do you fear the word of him Who makes a lie unwritten No rose was born without a thorn Since first the fruit was bitten Do you fear the word of him Who makes a lie unwritten No rose was born without a thorn Since first the fruit was bitten Now will you surrender Will you surrender Oh will you all surrender Now will you surrender |
10. D For Desire See the roses growing purposely Dreaming of the vase Blood-stained poet calls it vanity I'd call it yearning Rarest butterfly, steel his charm away Stab him under glass From within it grew Ink tattooed in you D stands for Desire, for desire First I want the prize then I have the prize Give stranger jewels Little boy lost, little girl lost Found, smashed their shrine Medal on your breast only half as precious As when your head Medal on your breast only half as precious As your Desire, your Desire Severed roses drawn, in their vases, decay away How they want pain, need pain, crave pain, love pain D is for Desire D stands for Desire |
11. Don't Follow Me (March Hare) Filling me up is this lust to lay down my cross As the sun melts down the nails This grim, stupid, street is grinning Skip my foolish heart a beat Still no Vincent scissors shall cut my ears Or how else in this miserable life would I hear And rush to the whip, the lash and the drums Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me... March Hare As fond of white walls as I am I cram my head with your sanity Just enough to stay outside the hide and seek game The first time there is something to make you sleep And it makes you ill For the next time may be mandrake if I wake at all Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me... March Hare The girl in the white dress shows promise She promised too much Hope she enjoys it when it happens, if it happens at all Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me. Don't you follow me... March Hare |
12. End Of The Day Nobody tried to find me, I have to hurry Don't know what possessed me It could've been you All that mess behind me And all that mess in front of me In front of me, in front of me And it swings, and it swings and it swings So proud, against the sky Against a sunset a sky on fire End of the day Why should I deny it, I bled the life out Don't know what possessed me But am I sorry? Am I ever No shame at the gallows All I did was lose my temper Lose my temper, I lost my temper It swings and it swings and it swings |
13. Love Leads Nowhere Candles burn in the dead of night Some butterfly ghosts draw closer to the flame I hear their wings humming Turn your back, now the arrows fly When you fall to the floor, no one is there to see I know the strangers are coming, I know Love Leads Nowhere Love Leads Nowhere ... A day at the sea, low tide today just a glimmer of water miles and miles away I know the dangers of running Mermaid sings and you rush to her, Mesmerised by nothing in her eyes I know your reasons for rushing I know the danger's running, I know Love Leads Nowhere Love Leads Nowhere Blindfold, tied up, spinning round See no hope so listen for a sound We need a new direction Signposts twist at wicked hands In this confusion, nobody understands We need a new direction, we need We need Love, Leads, Nowhere Love, it leads, Nowhere ... |
14. Our Summer How cruel am I to pass you by now And it's a cold December In the heat of next July now Will you or won't you remember Our summer Will come again Our Summer Melts the ice again Gypsy whispers with her wild eyes So heavy-handed with the heather She says a change of heart lies With the change in the weather Our summer Will come again Our Summer Melts the ice again {The darkest night has a morning The coldest winters melt to spring A skyful of honeybees swarming Could you swear you never felt a thing } |
15. Suppertime Innocence, smiles in the playground As a grey man, touches her hair "Sweets for a pretty girl ?" But she's not such a silly girl As she slaps the hand away Poison on my plate, so hungry I ate Poison on my plate, so hungry I feel, the steel, inside Our mouths open wide We sharpen our teeth, and flexing our jaws We bite the hand that feed us He grows to be big and strong Eats the vegetables, joins their family The ignorance he found Helps the medicine go down Helps the stale untruths taste nicer Poison on my plate, so hungry I ate Poison on my plate, so hungry The lies, disguise wears thin The fasting begins The scraping of chairs, cutlery screams When may we leave the table ? | ![]() |
16. Paradise Alive again and living under rain and on the run I'm wondering if paradise was won by the gun You gather fruit from danger trees You see more than you ought to see Too late...too late We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Will it ever come again When you call ? So catch if angels should Fall in your arms For every ladder reaching high A thousand snake-mouths open wide Too late...too late We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Don't know where to go Don't think you'll find it So near now, it's somewhere So maybe defy me You may have your dreams But heaven you steal Live by the sword Live by the gun Never to rest 'Til your heaven is won We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Got to get it back Gon to get it back Will it ever come again...? |
17. Devil Woman (Britten) I've had nothing but bad luck Since the day I saw the cat at my door So I came here to you sweet lady Answering your mystical call Crystal ball on the table Showing the future the past Same cat with them evil eyes And I know it was a spell she'd cast She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you from behind Give me the ring on your finger Let me see the lines of your hand I can see me a tall dark stranger Giving you what you hadn't planned I drank the potion she offered me I found myself on the floor Then I locked in those big green eyes And I wondered what I came there for She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you from behind Stay awake look out If you're out on a moonlit night Be careful of the neighborhood strays Of a lady with long black hair Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways Crystal ball on the table showing the future the past Same cat with them evil eyes you'd better get out oh there fast She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you ... | ![]() |
18. Calling Your Name Man possessed Can find no rest, Waking for his nightmare. Safe in bed, But in his head He knows her soul resides there "I'll be the breeze That blows the candle out And chills the room As summer burns without... Calling your name." Love lamented, His soul tormented, Sleeping in the embers. As good as dead, He's lost his head - But how ? No-one remembers ! "I'll be the hand That guides your hand to write I'll turn you pale With ink and second-sight... Calling your name." "I'll be your skin, I'll turn you black and blue... I'll be your breath... The life and death of you... Calling your name." |
19. Wild Flowers The grey of winter falls on us - How will our garden grow ? Will all the seeds we've sown Survive beneath the snow ? We've been here before, Wrapped in our regret. All those winter words, I want us to forget them... Seasons may change And they hold wild flowers, Raising their face to the sun. All that are born from our soft rainshowers Are wild flowers. Morning breaks And no-one wakes; No bird is here to sing. So, from the south I wish them back To brace the spring. They've flown south before, It's just the way they live. For when I try to fly away Can you forgive me ? Seasons may change and they hold wild flowers... | ![]() |
20. Candy Tree There's a place I know Where the children go Every summer's night. They run as fast they can Behind the Raven-Man... Who shall he invite ? The rather awkward girl With the ragged curls Much to her delight ! "Come with me to the candy tree You need to free your mind... Come with me to the candy tree And leave it all behind - " Well it's an underhand Kind of wonderland - She can't find the door; Because he's keeping her as a prisoner, Lost forevermore. And now the Queen is red And she wants her head Just to keep the law. "Come with me to the candy tree..." |
21. More Than This Hour For tomorrow... I'll say a prayer and cast a spell ; Take the arrow And send a wish down a wishing-well. You say you've lived before, So how can you be sure enough To disbelieve in desire The magic and the mystery. Feet don't touch the floor - So wish for something more ; More than this hour Stranded by the water-side, Drifting on the sands of time Yesterday is fading like a flower... In this hour... this hour. For tomorrow, When every kiss is history, Still we follow A blazing trail of chemistry. Something in the air Beckons you to dare To fly into the sun ever higher To finish what the flame begun. You say you've wished before, So wish for something more Than this hour. | ![]() |
22. Another Door There must be something in the blood we share Fermented over centuries or something in the air. Our moody scenery, just won't stop bruising me. I've had enough of grey skies raising tears Another door is closed I see the fire inside Another door closed, another door You know it's cold. The map of bitterness I imagined Has just brought out the nurse in me - Or don't you need care ? I know, there's lots of love But it's all twisted up, I've had enough of thunder ringing in my ears [ Here by the fireside, there's a war, a war Let's blame the war on bad design - Don't cry Here by the fireside, there's a war, a war Blame the war on you and I I know there's lots of love Still it's all twisted up ] |
23. The Garden Of Jane Delawney (Bias Boshell) The poet's voice lingers on His words hang in the air The ground you walk upon My death will not be there My death will not be then I take you through my dreams Out into the darkest morning Past the bloodfilled stream Into the garden of Jane Delawney Into her garden Love Always roses there Don't like it as you pass For a fire will consume your hair And your eyes will turn to glass Your eyes will turn to glass In the willow's shade Don't lie to hear it weep For its tears of gold and jade Will drown you as you sleep Will drown you love Jane Delawney had her dreams But she never did discover For the flow that feeds the stream Is the lifeblood of her lover Is the lifeblood of her lover And the purifying beam Of the sun does shine her never While the spirit of her dream In the garden lives forever Lives forever now | ![]() |
24. Drowning Reaching out a hand There's a hand you want to hold When the night feels blue The hand feels cold The fog takes my breath But we've got to keep breathing now Gonna live to tell the tale Gonna live to tell the tale The drowning man And the drowning lady They're soaked to the skin Cling like ivy "I can't let you go" she says, "Hold me now - keep me alive" The fog comes down And stars fall down The moon leaves the sky Can't ask why Got to keep dreaming Leave me now Safely in your arms Felt like home I wanna go home now Gonna live to tell the tale |
25. The Witch's Promise (Ian Anderson) Lend me your ear while I call you a fool. You were kissed by a witch one night in the wood, And later insisted your feelings were true. The witch's promise was coming, Believing he listened while laughing you flew. Leaves falling red, yellow, brown, all are the same, And the love you have found lay outside in the rain. Washed clean by the water but nursing its pain. The witch's promise was coming, and you're looking Elsewhere for your own selfish gain. Keep looking, keep looking for somewhere to be, Well, you're wasting your time, they're not stupid like he is. Meanwhile leaves are still falling, you're too blind to see. You won't find it easy now, it's only fair. He was willing to give to you, you didn't care. You're waiting for more but you've already had your share. The witch's promise is turning, so don't you wait up For him, he's going to be late. |
26. Elizabeth Of Glass "All passive obedience and implicit submission of will is far too easy, chop off your legs, you will never go astray" Stifle your reason altogether and you will find it is difficult to reason end." "The misery, you see what we have gained by waiting." "Death, dearest, I shall not fail you." "Elizabeth herself who had to decide." "Elizabeth of Glass, with the white horses galloping in the moonlight and the stars glittering overhead." "Robert suddenly said in the midst of our talking and laughing." "I loved and raised the boy... he cannot be happy, I think, in the depths of his heart." "And every night he was allowed by my bedside, and with such tenderness, such goodness...." |

27. Silver Song (Simonds) They take my time without a question And fill my days with all their emptiness And in their drawing rooms They beg my sympathy But if I weep to solve their silent misery They save my tears to sell for silver Their neighbours trespass on my highway And feed my lambs on every pavement corner And with their grief inside They're hiding from the rain But if my sun should shine too loudly on their woe They catch its beam to sell for gold They have me captured in their city In every living room my dust has laid me low And well I know The brown earth will be my best friend And when I'm gone they'll find another way to mend They'll sell my silver song for tears |
28. All The Rings 'Round Saturn For all the rings 'round Saturn I wouldn't change the pattern of my life And if every star above me Told me that they loved me Then their love I would deny At my window watching changes Contemplating as the world is drifting by Slowly walking through the ages And imagining that I would never die But who would take this gift of endless moves For eternity exists here in this room For all the rings 'round Saturn I wouldn't change the pattern of my life And if every star above me Told me that they loved me Then their love I would deny In the daylight, through the darkness I'm reflecting all extremes Of being weak and strong In my madness I'm on fire All the rain may come and wash away my tears No I don't need to venture from this place Where an age leaves its impression on my face For all the rings 'round Saturn I wouldn't change the pattern of my life And if every star above me Told me that they loved me Then their love I would deny Please come and exchange all that they know from my world And I'll fly away Seasons spin their web (impatiently) Oh how I trust their infinity... |

29. Drawn To Earth Am I essential Can I be someone Can I be anyone I like Am I celestial Can I be real I know how it feels To be dressed up in flesh Move between All I've been And all that's next to follow Drawn to earth I need my birth For all it's worth Tired of miles of choirs of angels Am I descending Into the water Beautiful daughter Oh sweet baby-boy Move between All I've been And all that's next to follow Drawn to earth I need my birth For all it's worth Tired of miles of choirs of angels |
30. Nothing Without You In every ounce of pleasure From now until forever I'm lost in you And reading through the pages Prophets and sages Living inside of you From innocence to blushes Treasuring the rushes Running away Then I await As the story ends I tumble from my bed I'm nothing without you I'm nothing without you I'm nothing without you It's nothing without you And sometimes in the pictures All lost between the scriptures I confine myself Then maybe there's a poet Just waiting there to kiss me Soft as a lullaby And I need the invitation Touch your slumber Running away Come and play The story slips so deeply in my head I'm nothing without you I'm nothing without you I'm nothing without you It's nothing without you Sailing leaves Showering me Leaving me Down the stream (?) I'm nothing without you I'm nothing without you There's nothing within me How can we learn from you |

31. Light As A Feather Spiralling in curves and turns Dancing in the square Tonight the choir foolish sleeps But I am everywhere Wind is cold and shoulder bare Winter's fingers reach So I sing through the cobble stones Though I am underneath Then I arrive Float towards the sky I'm light as a feather refusing to die Holding the candle here in your room I'm light as a feather and bright as the moon Lighted window's yellow glow Opening it's arms Beckons me to come inside And promises no harm Velvet chair in library Piano and a clock A stranger in my history A face that I know not Then I arrive Float towards the sky I'm light as a feather refusing to die Holding the candle here in your room Light as a feather and bright as the moon Vision of white in an antique gown I'm light as a feather and don't make a sound Disappear and appearing soon I'm light as a feather and bright as the moon Sleep with the earth and ride in the sky I'm light as a feather refusing to die Holding the candle here in your room I'm light as a feather and bright as the moon Vision of white in an antique gown I'm light as a feather and don't make a sound Disappear and appearing soon I'm light as a feather and bright as the moon |
32. Frida Of Blood And Gold Slowmotion driving through the fall I feel the steel as you recall It's like your house It's built to never be sold It's like your clothes Made of blood and gold Rise up black angel to the sky And bleed your raindrops from on high It's like your wings They never attempted to fly It's like your beauty Made of blood and gold |

33. Road To Damascus "In a brief statement issued to reporters in Kennebunkport, Maine, where Mr. Bush is on holidays, the White House spokesman said the president was pleased by the release of John McCarthy, but wanted all hostages freed immediately, safely and unconditionally." "British journalist John McCarthy will be back in Britain tonight, following his release by kidnappers in Lebanon. He is on a plane which left the Syrian capital Damascus just over two hours ago, bound for RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire. John McCarthy is released." |
34. It's All Too Much (Lennon / McCartney) It's all too much When I look into your eyes Your love is there for me And the more I go inside The more there is to see. It's all too much for me to take The love that shines all around me Everywhere it's what you make For me to take it's all too much. Floating down the stream of time From life to life with me Makes no difference where you are Or where you'd like to be. It's all too much for me to take The love that shines all around here. All the world is birthday cake So take a piece but not too much. Sail me on a silver sun Where I know that I am free Show me that I'm everywhere And get me home for tea. It's all too much for me to take There's plenty there for everybody The more you give the more you get The more it is and it's too much. It's all too much for me to see The love that shines all around you The more I learn the less I know But what I do is all too much. It's all too much for me to take The love that shines all around you Everywhere it's what you make For me to take it's all too much. |
35. See Emily Play (Pink Floyd) Emily tries but misundestands She's only inclined to borrow somebodys dream 'Till tomorrow There is no other day Let's try it another way You'll loose your mind and play Three games for may See Emily Play Soon after dark Emily cries She's gazing at trees in sorrow Hardly a sound 'till tomorrow There is no other day Let's try it another way You'll loose your mind and play Three games for may See Emily Play Put on a gown that touches the ground Float on a river for ever and ever Emily There is no other day Let's try it another way You'll loose your mind and play three games for may See Emily Play See Emily Play |
36. Ascent / Descent I've got a head for heights now I can see the sights now And I want it right now And how...... But it's the wrong way round And it's a long way down To the ground But it's the wrong way round Backs to the wall now You say I'll fall now 'Cause I want it all now And how.....

37. Moodswing Up, down Spin me round Pin me down Yes, no, overthrown Come and go In my bed I laze in doubt Can't decide which side to get out Sun shines, well, ain't that fine Just don't care Sugarsparks of light intrude On the darkness of this black mood When I'm off my food I just don't care Seesaw Fly some more Then hit the floor To, fro How high I go Then so low Lonely silver satellite Surfing on the navy-blue night Suck my blood like a bloodsucker would And I just don't care Through my eyes the world is grey My face is longer than a sunday Moodswings like a swinging thing And I just don't care |
38. Dive In I'd learn to fly I'd learn to swim I see the sky and I want to dive in I'd learn to dance But I've got two left feet And I won't get to fly Friend of mine you took me to the side And delivered a truth that could not be denied He said "you've got to cover your views when next to you they were the life and soul of the party" A footstep ahead I said "I'm already dead to the joys the world gives the average girl" So why should I care if I let myself down? When I should be ahead I'd learn to fly.... We say (we) get anywhere at speed Is the lower it gets to get past my answermachine They know that in the sea air is nobody And the wind can't hurt you See all of the (tenderness) When the truth is I've learned not to Talk to anybody you've heard To say "Aha then" well I don't know Will you change my shoes ? I didn't think so. I'd learn to fly.... And in my head I got wings I got motion... I got it all |
39. Let Me Entertain You I used to know a band Two boys, a girl, they didn't understand Hung out in London bars, With beaten up guitars Searching for a short cut to the stars Then they won awards For compositions built on minor chords The darlings of the press Without resorting to undressing Giving lessons to the less adored Let me, let me entertain you Let me cheer you up And show you how everyone can Have a, have a real good time One, two, three sold-out shows They threw a party for the powdered nose Who never saw the stalls or any curtain calls Now you know how many asses had to get A kissing at the Albert Hall Let me, let me entertain you Let me cheer you up And make you feel everything is Gonna, gonna be alright.... Let me, let me entertain you Let me cheer you up And show you how everyone can Have a, have a real good time |
40. Will I Start To Bleed (Marty Willson-Piper) Silence floats into the room Whispers to me out of tune And I wonder if these deadly Awkward moments stay Stabbing their spikes in me Will I start to bleed Raise your eyes until they're mine Lift yourself towards the light Your face looks like a waterfall to me If I concede What is it going to mean Will I start to bleed Magnectic field around your heart I'm sure I felt the engine start But what if all the fuel runs out Glad I didn't stay with you So much more for me to do I am free like Mathieu In The Age Of Reason But something is missing Will I start to bleed good time |
41. Forever (Marty Willson-Piper) Sleeping in, in case I miss you Dreaming takes me right there to you Quilt of silver golden thread Your face is shining in my head Waking up I see you slipping Don't disappear, quench your thirst there Ace of hearts, stolen diamond Skylark singing, church bells chiming The sudden sight of you is pleasing It's only perfect things we're seeking My heart's awake, my fear is sleeping You are forever keeping Forever, Forever My mood is cracked, I start to tremble Splintered tears to re-assemble I'm not able to express it But I'm sure that I will get it Lazy is the sleepy summer I melt myself and drip upon her Now we're liquid mixed together Oh we can last forever Forever, forever I am focusing my actions Pressing on with this attraction If arrows fly then I will catch them Oh it's you forever good time |
42. You Bring Your Love To Me (Marty Willson-Piper) Diamonds and snow And crystals that grow A tune in the trees That hangs on the breeze And you bring my love to me You bring my love to me If I had a choice of an angel's voice If I could enpower For one single hour Then you'd bring your love to me You'd bring your love to me And we'd kiss and entwine For all time Garlands of flowers And sweet springtime showers Your hair in the clouds Your tresses unwound And you bring your love to me You bring your love to me The patterns and shapes That fall into place The light of the moon That shows me your face And you bring my love to me You bring my love to me And we kiss And entwine For all time For all time, for all time |
43. Life On Mars (David Bowie) It's a god-awful small affair To the girl with the mousy hair But her mummy is yelling "No" And her daddy has told her to go But her friend is nowhere to be seen Now she walks through her sunken dream To the seat with the clearest view And she's hooked to the silver screen But the film is a saddening bore For she's lived it ten times or more She could spit in the eyes of fools As they ask her to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars? It's on Amerika's tortured brow That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow Now the workers have struck for fame 'Cause Lennon's on sale again See the mice in their million hordes From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads Rule Britannia is out of bounds To my mother, my dog, and clowns But the film is a saddening bore 'Cause I wrote it ten times or more It's about to be writ again As I ask you to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars? |
44. Apart (The Cure) He waits for her to understand But she won't understand at all She waits all night for him to call But he won't call anymore He waits to hear her say forgive But she just drops her pearl-black eyes And prays to hear him say I love you But he tells no more lies He waits for her to sympathize But she won't sympathize at all She waits all night to feel his kiss But always wakes alone He waits to hear her say forget But she just hangs her head in pain And prays to hear him say No more I'll never leave again How did we get this far apart ? We used to be so close together How did we get this far apart ? I thought this love would last forever |
