heartburst

heartburst feel the pressure love joy peace or pain
filling up and spilling over forcing tiny teardrops again
heartbeat made to measure before it all began
incomplete without each other hard to see it hard to understand

a special time a seam of gold a butterfly mine a tale untold fluttering by wanting free urging it happen let destiny be a special time sky of stars musical rhyme cage without bars sparkling high invisibly be silvery trails through history see

heartburst feel the pressure love joy peace or pain
filling up and spilling over forcing tiny teardrops again
heartbeat made to measure before it all began
incomplete without each other believing in it still don't understand

butterfly on the moon

you did not have strong feelings for me
sleep in peace at night
happy living on independently
emotionally light

it was so real so real for me
it was so real so real
it is so gone so gone from me
it is so gone so gone

you did not have strong feelings for me
sleep in peace at night
happy living on independently

you did not have strong feelings for me
sleep in peace at night
happy living on independently
emotionally light

you did not have strong feelings
you did not have strong feelings
you did not have strong feelings
but you made it real for me
but you made it real for me

emotionally light

how many miles left in a stone
how many styles in a turn?
lonely me has left us well alone
white heat slow burn

it was so real so real for me
it was so real so real
it is so gone so gone from me
it is so gone so gone

you did not have strong feelings
you did not have strong feelings
you did not have strong feelings
but you made it real for me
but you made it real for me



all the vows

all the vows we'll never take
all the promises we'll never break
all the time we'll never take to whine

you're late my tea's not on the plate
for goodness sake you've not cleaned the shower there's hair in there
it's yours

all the vows we'll never take
all the promises we'll never break
all the time we'll never take to whine

all the kids we'll never spawn
all the dreams are gone

all the money we'll never make
all the chances we'll never take
all the methods of escape you'll try

you're late my tea's not on the plate
for goodness sake you've not cleaned the shower there's hair in there it's yours

all the vows we'll never take
all the promises we'll never break
all the time we'll never take to whine

are you listening to me or just watching tv?
you've not made the bed the cat wants fed
there's dishes in the sink the dryer's full
it stinks
you think you're so cool

dancing

dancing with a sheep in wolves clothing
self loving and loathing
with a lover not to be
who knew and felt every part of me

left me exposed and sad again
experience rejection pain
happens to us all
aching anger when pride takes a fall

i might wear you out
i might wear you down and out
with my love

don't want to wear you out
don't want to wear you down and out
with my love

love will wear you out
love will wear you down and out
my strange love

playing with bubbles inside balloons
whistling silly tunes
pretend that you won't be
the one who walks away from me

love will wear you out
love will wear you down and out

recurring theme

let's not talk
let's not talk about it
it just doesn't help to talk about it

let's not fight

let's not worry

let's not cry

let's not joke

let's not sing

some things are too big
some things just don't work
sometimes it's just time
it's just time to give up
sometimes you've just got to
got to take a walk

a year in this life, a year in this life
a year in this life , another year in my life
a year in this life, another year in your life

let's not talk

how i hate

ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

how i hate to hate you now
how i loved to hate you then
memory replays time again
fear drains all the colour away
hope scolds and laughs at pain
dread relaxes now it's over
it's all over it's all over

that's my baby

that's my baby that's my baby boy
he's walking taller than ever i could try
don't even whisper never let him see
i'll be a model parent when he's done with me

that's my baby that's my baby boy
he's walking taller stretching to the sky
wants me to be clever wants me to win
you can take it in the neck or lay it on the chin

doing the impossible as you can tell
doing the impossible not so very well

that's my baby that's my baby girl
she talks a language indecipherable
don't even shiver keep it back from me
let it all develop unexpectedly

that's my baby that's my baby girl
moving on faster thousand miles an hour
she's flying higher running out of sky
you can walk the walk of life or you can
walk on by

doing the impossible aren't you doing it well? doing the impossible who can ever tell?


tokyo skyline

can't
get the tokyo skyline out from off my mind
take
this air-con glass box world away and let me fly
carry me there carry me anywhere
i
can't get the vicious foreplay from my memory
so
help me make believe beneath some cherry tree
carry me there carry me anywhere

tokyo skyline tokyo skyline

had
to travel far to get yourself back there again
had
to disappear to clearly see yourself again
had
to be a stranger so you could feel real inside
had to find the distance then explore what lay behind

tokyo skyline tokyo skyline

carry me there carry me anywhere

tokyo skyline tokyo skyline

2am
karaoke bar that tired out business man
make all the plans you like waiting for the rising sun
tokyo skyline tokyo skyline
tokyo skyline tokyo skyline.

she's a waitress

waiting for years waiting such a long time
i could never get enthusiastic 'bout my food
i could never be my best and still be understood
and any time you ask how i'd describe myself
i'll just smile and say i want to be your waitress

i just want to be yours
you've just got to be mine

i've been lucky and unlucky when it comes to love
i've been bitten then been shy of all the bugs
so anytime you want to taste my success
just give me all your tips i'll be your waitress

i just want to be yours
you've just got to be mine

i have worked the tables and the places round this town
i have heard the tales and conversations put me down
you have had the chances seen the glances from this end
here's the menu you've been missing you just help yourself

i just want to be yours
you just want to be mine
waiting for years waiting such a long time

cold fish

are you ready to get on alone
are you ready to get on alone
are you ready are you ready to get on alone?

you can live your life at the bottom of a wishing well
you can be a cold fish or a freak eating taco bell
see things anyway you like
want the left but need the right
now's the time for an accident let's go have one who can tell

spent the last weekend with my back against a telephone pole
you can live the lie but some day you're gonna lose control
now it's getting close to eight
i guess you won’t be home till late
take your shoes of and dance you can jam and you can jelly roll

are you ready to get on alone
are you ready to get on alone
are you ready are you ready to get on alone?

now it's getting close to eight
i guess you won’t be home till late
take your shoes of and dance you can jam and you can jelly roll
