Take on Me
|
|
We're talking away I don't know what I'm to say I'll say it anyway Today's another day to find you Shying away I'll be coming for your love, OK? Take on me (take on me) Take me on (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two So needless to say I'm odds and ends But I'll Be Stumbling away Slowly learning that life is OK. Say after me: "It's no better to be safe than sorry." Take on me (take on me) Take me on (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two Oh, the things that you say Is it life or Just to play my worries away? You're all the things I've got to remember You're shying away I'll be coming for you anyway Take on me (take on me) Take me on (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two |

Train of Thought
|
|
He likes to have the morning paper's Crossword solved Words go up words come down Forwards backwards twisted round He grabs a pile of letters from a small suitcase Disappears into an office It's another working day And his thoughts are full of strangers Corridors of nked lights And his mind once full of reason Now there's more than meets the eye Oh, a stranger's face he carries with him He likes a bit of reading on the subway home A distant radio whistling tunes that nobody knows At home a house awaits him, He unlocks the door Thinking once there was a sea here But there never was a door And his thoughts are full of strangers And his eyes to numb to see And nothing that he knows of And nowhere where he's been Was ever quite like this And his thoughts... And at heart He's full of strangers Doging on his train of thought Train of thought |

Hunting High and Low
|
|
Here I am And within the reach of my hands She's sound asleep and she's sweeter now Than the wildest dream could have seen her And I Watch her slipping away Though' I know I'll be hunting high and low High There's no end to the lengths I'll go to Hunting high and low High There's no end to lengths I'll go To find her again Upon this my dreams are depending Through the dark I sense the pounding of her heart Next to mine She's the sweetest love I could find So I guess I'll be hunting high and low High There's no end to the lengths I'll go to Hunting High and Low High Do you know what it means to love I'm hunting high and low And now she's telling me she's got to go away I'll always be hunting high and low Hungry for you Watching me tearing myself to pieces Hunting high and low High There's no end to the lengths I'll go to Oh, for you I'll be hunting high and low |

The Blue Sky
|
|
I find it hard to breathe As life just eats away At the faces that surround me They look tired today The lady at my table Doesn't want me here I just want to talk to her But would she laugh at my accent And make fun of me It doesn't seem like this Blue sky's here for me There are no girls in here As far as I can see Only pin-up posters Looking down at me Watching papercups of coffee Growing cold before my eyes All the things I see That make me realize I'm in this big world without you Nothing to my name I never knew that Blue sky meant such pain I'm dying to be different In the coffee shop I've lived on borrowed strength Now my supplies are cut Though I'm older than my looks And older than my years I'm too young to take on My deepest fears Oh, I used to be confused But now I just don't know Since you left I've been watching Blue skies come and go |

Living a Boy's Adventure Tale
|
|
I've fixed my dwelling for the night Lights in pairs come passing by where I hide I need some time now on my own Leave my loneliness alone To lick my wounds Night has found me just in time to help me close my eyes one more time Living a boy's adventure tale In so many ways Living a boy's adventure tale For so many days I'm living a boy's adventure tale Can't escape, if I wanted to Living a boy's adventure tale I may be dreaming but I feel awake I've been lost in so many places Seeked love in so many faces A change of weather, the rain pours down My head in hands, pressed to the ground And where am I supposed to go now Living a boy's adventure tale In so many ways Living a boy's adventure tale Living a boy's adventure tale a voice I hear Living a boy's adventure tale Singing a lullaby for me Living a boy's adventure tale Because of you Living a boy's adventure Oh you know it's true Living a boy's adventure tale In so many ways For so many days I love you. I love you So many ways |

The Sun Always Shines on TV
|
|
Touch me How can it be Believe me The sun always shines on TV Hold me Close to your heart Touch me And give all your love to me to me... I reached inside myself And found nothing there To ease the pressure off My ever worried mind All my powers waste away I fear the crazed and lonely looks The mirror's sending me These days Please don't ask me to defend The shameful lowlands Of the way I'm drifting Gloomily through time Touch me I reached inside myself today Give all your love Thinking there's got to be some way To keep the troubles distant Hold me Close to your heart Touch me And give all your love to me |

And You Tell Me
|
|
Please don't hurt me I have told you All my love is all I've got And tomorrow is the day When I for your sake I'm coming back And you tell me that I don't love you Trying hard to make you jealous Trying harder to make you stay Days are longer, nights are crazy It's so strange when you're away And you tell me that I don't love you Because I love you I will show you All the faces my love can have So please let me come to you this time And you tell me that I don't love you You know that it's just not true |

Love Is Reason
|
|
My breath is coming fast And as I make a start You turn to go, oh oh I'll do what you want me to I cry at the thought of the loss of a heart Love is reason Love is reason Love is reason Love is reason enough My morals are changing fast I told you it wouldn't last You turn and go, oh oh I'll be what you want me to be I die at the though of the loss of your heart Oh, love is reason Love is reason Love is reason Love is reason Love is reason enough |

I Dream Myself Alive
|
|
Dream myself alive I dream myself alive You can't deny There's something dark against the light All I can say It doesn't have to be this way We'll be chasing our tails madly See days pass like wild fire Right from the start I knew this world would break my heart I dream myself alive Dream myself alive I dream myself alive Dream myself alive What can it mean I'm drawing pictures of the same Right from the start I knew this girl would break my heart Dream myself alive Dream myself alive I dream myself alive Dream myself alive |

Here I Stand and Face the Rain
|
|
Help me, I need your love Don't walk away The dark scares me so We're nothing apart Let's stay friends forever Forever Here I stand and face the rain I know that nothing's Gonna be the same again I fear for what tomorrow brings Trust me for who I am Place all your pains into these hands I've got nothing to say But let's stay friends forever Forever Here I stand and face the rain I know that nothing's Gonna be the same again I fear for what tomorrow brings Here I stand and face the pain Of knowing nothing's Gonna be the same again I fear for what tomorrow brings Here I stand and face the rain Knowing nothing's Gonna be the same again Here I stand and face the rain I know that nothing's Gonna be the same again |
