How Do You Do!
|
|
I see you comb your hair and gimme that grin it's making me spin now spinnin' within before I melt like snow I say hello How do you do! I love the way you undress now baby begin do you caress honey my heart's in a mess I love your blue-eyed voice like Tiny Tim shines thru How do you do! Well here we are crackin' jokes in the corner of our mouths and I feel like I'm laughing in a dream if I was young I could wait outside your school cos your face is like the cover of a magazine How do you do do you do the things that you do no one I know could ever keep up with you how do you do! did it ever make sense to you to say bye bye bye? I see you in that chair with perfect skin well how have you been baby livin' in sin? hey I gona know did you say hello How do you do? Well, here we are spending time in the louder part of town and I feel like everything's surreal when I get old I will wait outside your house cos your hands have got the power meant to heal How do you do do you do the things that you do no one I know could ever keep up with you how do you do! did it ever make sense to you to say bye bye bye? |

Fingertips

You're sliding down a dream, o yea where nights are born in blue, that's the truth you're swimming in a stream, o yea fish are jumping too, next to you Suddenly you notice someone's at the door you could swear you've been through this all before Then she runs her fingertips through your hair your life has just begun her fingers they are everywhere you're floating light like air leaving the ground and she shines on just like the sun You're gazing at the sky, o my the stars are out tonight, shining bright you're waving to a cloud, bye-bye you're drowning in the smile of his eyes Suddenly you feel there's no time for a deal though a voice tells you it's for real And she runs her fingertips through your hair and life has just begun her fingers they are everywhere you're floating light like air leaving the ground she-she shines on just like the sun It's just a sunny afternoon somebody's singing songs of love, child you love a lazy afternoon once in a while |

The Look
|
|
1-2-3-4 walking like a man, Hitting like a hammer, She's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter, Tasty like a raindrop, She's got the look. Heavenly bound Cause heaven's got a number When she's spinning me around, Kissing is a colour. Her loving is a wild dog, She's got the look. She's got the look. She's got the look. What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue. When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you And I go: la la la la la she's got the look. Fire in the ice Naked to the T-bone Is a lover's disguise. Banging on the head drum, Shaking like a mad bull, She's got the look. Swaying to the band, Moving like a hammer She's a miracle man. Loving is the ocean, Kissing is the wet sand, She's got the look. And she goes: na na na na na na na na. |

The Heart Shaped Sea
|
|
Babe it's time to tell me that it's over tell me that it's over it's plain to see and this time we won't be starting over no crying on your shoulder into the heart shaped sea oh you've been a-running from our door and you've been enchanted by the gracious voice of love Babe it's time to look me in the eyes time to say goodbye it's clear to me and this time I won't let you down you can turn around I'll set you free Oh you've been a-sailing from our shore and you've been enchanted by someone from afar Babe it's time to gather all the harvest to pray before the winter and sail the heart shaped sea Oh you've been a-running from my love and you've been enchanted by the powers up above |

The Rain
|
|
I was raised the Northern way and my father had a Northern name I did my crying out in the pouring rain and a season turned into another one I found a heart bright like the morning sun he touched my lips so softly with his fingertips But I kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time I kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time And some things in life won't ever change there's a smell of a rusty chain and of love disappearing like an aeroplane I've kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time I've kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time |

Keep Me Waiting
|
|
I hit the coast with the faith of a preacherman I saw a ghost with a face like a madman I had this dream I was sleeping at the Royal Ball I hit the streets hey watch me in the monitor! I saw a clone who looked just like a senator I checked the clock I felt that it was time to go go go Then came you Why did you keep me waiting so long? Why did you keep me waiting so long? Why did you keep me waiting so long? I was a spy I was captured by the enemies I made a million selling secret fantasies I saw my love wasted in a pale grey zone I was the quake shaking every monument I had to fi-find out what all the money meant I checked the sun I knew that it was time to go go go Then came you Why did you keep me waiting so long? Why did you keep me waiting so long? Why did you keep me waiting so long? |

It Must Have Been Love
|
|
Lay a whisper on my pillow leave the winter on the ground I wake up lonely there's air of silence in the bedroom and all around touch me now I close my eyes and dream away It must have been love but it's over now it must have been good but I lost it somehow It must have been love but it's over now from the moment we touched 'til the time had run out Make-believing we're together that I'm sheltered by your heart but in and outside I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm and it's a hard winter's Day I dream away It must have been love but it's over now it was all that I wanted now I'm living without It must have been love but it's over now it's where the water flows it's where the wind blows |

Cinnamon Street
|
|
Growing up on Cinnamon Street everywhere you look there are lots of people to meet it's seven o'clock the breakfast treat now the schoolbus is here hurry up and grab a seat All the dreams are tiny ones another week has just begun on Cinnamon Street There was a girl on Cinnamon Street the same age as me we shared the curiosity I won her heart cos I could play guitar she promised me heaven at once and later all the stars but it all remained the same cos things can never change on Cinnamon Street I can hear my heartbeat the very first time we made love life was a lazy rest in the sun Later we went dancing staying up all night long playing all our favourite songs Cinnamon songs Oh oh na na na na na I say goodbye to Cinnamon Street springtime is here and the air is so dry and sweet I walk in a cloud the smell of cinnamon bread it's in my blood since the day I was born 'til I wake up... dead And the sun is smiling gently a funny shade of red Cinnamon Street I still feel my heartbeat the very first time we made love life was a lazy day in the sun later we went dancing hanging out all night long singing all our favourite songs Cinnamon songs Oh oh na na na na na |

Never Is a Long Time
|
|
You build it up and tear it down there's no reason to follow you you left the song without a sound you left the story I made for you softly angels bow and cry in the stillness of the night Never is a long time - goodbye no answers for the asking it's a long time - goodbye no mercy for the aching it's a long time oh I see no light on the forsaken never is a long time - goodbye let's spend the night when this dream has come to an end Sometimes you laugh sometimes you cry and yes I've cried over you you've left me blind in paradise you've left me hungering for the touch of you snow white angels run and hide in the blackness of the night Never is a long time - goodbye no answers for the asking it's a long time - goodbye no mercy for the aching it's a long time oh I see no light on the forsaken never is a long time - goodbye let's spend the night when this dream has come to an end |

Silver Blue
|
|
I got to get a message through I don't know where we're going I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders take cover for the night I see you in the morning rain oh step inside and lay beside me tender can you close my eyes and blind me oh give me just a smile... Before I fade to silver silver Blue for you before I fade to silver Silver Blue for you I've turned into The Broken One who lost the inspiration I want to give you all my love like water to a blood red rose the Passion - I can't deal with her the Pain - well I can do without him and this is like the milky way an ocean that only grows and grows And babe I fade to silver Silver Blue for you I turn and fade to silver Silver Blue for you I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders take cover for the night |

Here Comes the Weekend
|
|
Every shape of every word you say that breaks the silence of an ordinary day every look that seems to mystify every single smile that spins me to the sky It makes me wanna run it makes me wanna hide cos you're the only one that makes me come alive it's getting closer now and darker by the hour It only goes to show that here it comes here comes the weekend and I'm on my own again with a Saturday in the rain here it comes here comes the weekend the fine line from pleasure to pain is making me cry when will I see you again? Every breath every vision you make every chance in love you love to take every move that seems to alter my world every dream I've had about this boy and this girl It makes me wanna run it makes me wanna hide cos you're the only one that makes my love alive and time is running fast into a new goodbye It only goes to show that here it comes here comes the weekend another walk down that lonely lane another Sunday that feels the same here it comes here comes the weekend the fine line from pleasure to pain is making me cry When will I see you again? |

So Far Away
|
|
In the coldest time of year, darkeness all around my heart. I was alone but didn't fear to wander in the lights of stars. In the bright and silent night, winds would knock and disappear. Still I felt the feeling near, like the first time you were ever hear. You're so far away, so far away, you left me, you told me you would stay. You never say goodbye and I keep wondering why, I keep wondering how, oh come unto me now. I have breathed the morning air, I have heard the four winds blow. I was weary but prepared to follow down this lonely road. In the room where lovers sleep, winds would knock and disappear. Still I felt the music near, like the first time you were ever here. You're so far away, so far away, you left me, you told me you would stay. You never said goodbye and I keep wondering why, I keep wondering how, oh come inside me now. |

Come Back (Before You Leave)
|
|
Never looked back on a love affair I never spent minutes on history it made me sad it made me so sad And in no time no time at all a change has begun and the name is You I feel strange you've made my life strange Cos baby when you get close to me I say there's a certain chemistry Come back before you leave I haven't got room for a broken heart come back before you leave you shouldn't go at all you shouldn't go at all. So many years and so many nights I still can recall oh the way that you move when you dance do you want to dance? We've had our habits and attitudes you make me remember the power when everything's right please stay the night Cos baby when you get close to me there's something about you I really need Come back before you leave I haven't got room for a broken heart come back before you leave you shouldn't go at all you shouldn't go at all Babe, come back before you leave I'll be the air for you when you breathe I'll be the rising sun Close the door, let's make love all God's angels sing above into the rising sun |

Things Will Never Be the Same
|
|
Lay it down pull my heart to the ground time's getting cold now the leaves all turn hard and blue And I know when I gaze to the sun no place to hide I got nowhere to run from you away from you Hold me now girl I don't know when when we will ever meet again that was then baby this is now I try to get over you Losing you... things will never be the same Can you hear me call your name? If we changed it back again things would never be... In your hand babe I don't understand you've got the eyes of a child but you hurt like a man always do always do Touch me now girl I don't know when when we will ever meet again that was then baby this is now time won't get over you |

Joyride
|
|
I hit the road out of nowhere I had to jump in my car and be a rider in a love game following the stars. Don't need no book of wisdom I get no money talk at all. She has a train going downtown she's got a club on the moon and she's telling all her secrets in a wonderful balloon. Oh she's the heart of the funfair she's got me whistling her private tune. And it all begins where it ends and she's all mine my magic friend. She says: Hello you fool I love you C'mon join the joyride Join the joyride She's a flower I can paint her she's a child of the sun we're part of this together could never turn around and run Don't need no fortune teller to know where my lucky love belongs oh no Cos it all begins where it ends and we're all magic friends She says: Hello you fool I love you C'mon join the joyride Join the joynride Be a joyrider I take you on a skyride a feeling like you're spellbound the sunshine is a lady who ROX you like a baby |

Queen of Rain
|
|
In that big big house there are fifty doors and one of them leads to your heart in the time of spring I passed your gate and tried to make a start All I knew was the scent of sea and dew but I've been in love before how about you? There's a time for the good in life a time to kill the pain in life dream about the sun you queen of rain In that big old house there are fifty beds and one of them leads to your soul it's a bed of fear a bed of threats regrets and sheets so cold All I knew your eyes so velvet blue I've been in love before how about you? There's a time for the good in life a time to kill the pain in life dream about the sun you queen of rain It's time to place your bets in life I've played the loser's game of life dream about the sun you queen of rain Time went by as I wrote your name in the sky fly fly away bye bye |
