Louise, Louise
Ooh, Ahh
The snowdome of your heart.
Morning
Morning Morning Blue
It's dawning
You're all that I want
All that I need
It's all about you.
Louise, Louise
Ooh, Ahh
The snowdome of your heart.

On My Own
03:59
|

|
Black coffee and strong cigarettes
Remind me of the time we spent in Rome
No luxury of the internet
Where I could get
The news from home
I was scared of flying
I was scared of foreign food
I was scared of your strange
And unpredictable moods
I could have stayed at home
If I'd wanted to
Wherever you go
I'll be with you.
Chorus
I don't want to eat, I don't want to sleep
On my own
I don't want to eat, I don't want to sleep
On my own.
I remember the days I was ill
And you put me to bed
And went to read by the fire
I lay awake and had visions of you
Heard you whispering too
As my fever got higher
You said 'I'll leave in the morning
Be back another day
Close your eyes and don't worry
It's better that way'.
Did you hear me cry out
'I don't want you to'
Wherever you go
I'll be with you
Chorus
When I'm alone in the dark
in my own company
I feel lost and alone
I want you to see
That there's nothing you can do
To keep me away from you
Chorus

Long Road
04:59
|

|
She could stop the tears from stinging
Couldn't stop the end from beginning
Couldn't stop the rising tide
Of jealousy and dented pride
Her days filled with bad vibrations
Nights awake with meditations
Now she knows she's through with you
She wants to leave, she's going to.
Ooh
Leave them behind
Your problems and all of your cares
Ooh
There's a future ahead
I'll take you there
Chorus
She's on the long road
The long road from you
She was always on the wrong road
It was the only one that she knew
It's an old fashioned feeling but the
Passion is new
It's hard to tear away
The memories that are there
You know it's like
Trying to wash away
The colour from your hair
But you know as
We get older, the colours start to fade
As we get wiser, dreams are born not made
Chorus
Keep on moving
Keep on moving on
Through the morning mist
And through the shadows long
Ooh
Leave them behind
Your problems and all of your cares
Ooh
There's a future ahead
I'll take you there
Chorus

England
06:08

The seasons here are the right length of time
You're bored so quickly said a good friend of mine
You wear your winters like an old pair of shoes
The summer reaches you like yesterdays news
Where are the headlines?
What year was the vintage wine?
Where are you going
And when will your story end?
You think it's funny
But the comedy is you
You scribble lines
With your fingers turning blue
The ones who love you don't want you at home
You turn the engine on and curl up all alone
Where has the light gone
What year did it all go wrong
When will the pain inside
Your sense of pride amend
Chorus
Wherever you say you're
Do you know who you are
Do you know who you're running from?
Wherever you say that you're from
We're in England
Do you know where you belong?
I watched the fog lift on Montpellier Parade
The ice was forming on the stairs and balustrades
And at the jewellers where the flower seller shouts
They're giving wide births to the homeless down and outs
Where is my country?
It wasn't like this but
Then I fell asleep
Where are the dreams we knew?
Are the green and blue skin deep?
Across the road and the park is alive
Dogs are barking and the children run and hide
They're laying poppies at the war commemorate
With troubled eyes they watch
The youths down by the gate
The brass starts to sound
The band stand on imperial ground
Where are our children
Now we've counted up to ten?
Chorus
I don't wanna paint
A picture that's not true
I know that the colours might run
Differently for you
Chorus

Brighton Pier

He works down at the petrol stop
Not so far from here
He dreams of Brighton Pier
His days roll by on axle grease
Washed down with beer
'til they're sparkling and clear
And oil pools leave rainbows on the ground
The ghosts of motor cars summer bound
He longs for the weekend to be here
When he'll walk on Brighton Pier
She works down at the shopping mall
Not so far from here
She dreams of Brighton Pier
She's saving for her wedding dress
In the shop across the square
She'll wear flowers in her hair
And she'll run
On foreign sands
Make love in exotic lands
She won't stay long
Her heart will long to hear
Those waves on Brighton Pier
Chorus
These days are ours
The days we love, we learn and we give
These lives are ours the lives
The lives we learn to live
These days are ours
The days we love, we learn and we give
These lives are ours the lives
The lives we learn to live
Ooh Brighton Pier
Now winter is coming on the breeze
The ground is soft with Autumn leaves
The nights are drawing in
Cigarettes, cans and bottles
Lie upon the shore
The ghosts of those who came before
The ghosts of those now gone
And Christmas bells will be ringing out
Of hope and peace in the new year
I'll hold you in my heart 'til summertime
We'll walk on Brighton Pier
Chorus

Changing Man
04:55
|

|
Spent some time in the holy land
Many one night stands from paradise
Then I looked in your eyes today
Saw your love decay
It wasn't nice
If heaven wants you
Or hell wants you
You're wanted with your heart intact
Ring those bells
Yeah ring them loud for me
Chorus
I'm gonna talk
You're gonna listen
I'm a changing man
I'm gonna talk
You're gonna listen
I'm a changing man
I can show you where I live
The people I slept with
All left through the back door
All my fittings and fixtures
I'll show you some pictures
The sort you've not seen before
If you love me
Or you don't love me
Leave me with my pride intact
Sing that song yeah
Sing that song for me
Chorus
Oh have mercy
Lord have mercy
Don't let this one get away
Ring those bells yeah
Ring them load today
Chorus

Harvest Storm
03:59
|
|||
|
Rising tide
Rising high
And there'll be nothing left
When you return
The Autumn sky
Said 'The Winter's mine'
And there'll be nothing left
When you return
The urgent sea
Set me free
And there'll be nothing left when you return
My field of dreams
Softly screams
Let there be nothing left when you return
Chorus
Because I feel
My life changing
As the morning breaks and my heart aches
Sinks with the setting sun
The Winter trees
Begged me please
Let there be nothing left when you return
My desert sands
Forced my hand
And there'll be nothing left when you return
Chorus
Changing, Changing
Chorus
The harvest storm
Kept me warm
And I'll be waiting here when you return
The iceberg's song
Proved me wrong
So I'll be waiting here when you return
I'll be waiting here when you return
I'll be waiting here when you return

Oh sea blue
I am the tide
I wish you were mine
Follow the moon
Follow the moon
I am the tide
I wish you were mine
Green
Is my dream
I am the tide
I wish you were mine
Follow the moon
Follow the moon
I am the tide
I wish you were mine
See me
Grabbing your shore
Grabbing your shore
Feel me
Grabbing your shore
I am the tide
I wish you were mine
Follow the moon]
Follow the moon
I am the tide
I wish you were mine.

The Shipping Forecast
06:12

Portland and Plymouth
Biscay Trafalgar
Fitzroy and Dogger
Cromarty and Sole
Viking and Fisher
Humber and Dover
Hebrides Bailey
Then Shannon and oh..
Breathe your time away
You're leaving the ranks
Of the ones who are hear to stay
Your fortunes gone astray
You have to look to the horizon anyway
I've seen your eyes
They're two moons full of skies
And the way that they're turning
Tell me that you're yearning
For freedom from me
So you look to the sea
The moon and the stars
And the heavens above
Chorus
Each time that you listen to the Shipping Forecast
It conjures up storms in your head
And one day soon you will realise
Than to stay here you'd rather be dead.
Than to stay here you'd rather be dead.
Portland and Plymouth
Biscay Trafalgar
Fitzroy and Dogger
Cromarty and Sole
Viking and Fisher
Humber and Dover
Hebrides Bailey
Then Shannon and oh..
Brave your time away
I know you must feel like your
Dreams have been washed away
I'll be here come what may
Be next to you right through your
Hardest darkest day
There's a wind from the north
And I know you'll set forth
With a steel in your eye
And no tears to dry
So then goodbye
To those moons full of sky
With the tide they are turning
And your heart is yearning
Chorus

A Little Distance
04:20
|
|||
|
There's a place I call dreamtime
It's somewhere for just you and I
But we live in the meantime
With the hard earth below us
And above us the sky
What did she tell you she wants?
Was it only to go where no lovers have gone?
What did she tell you she needs?
Was it only to see her?
The real her?
Chorus
A little distance will go a long way
When you're lost in the grey
Of another cold day
And the feathers that fall at your feet
As you walk down the street
Will carry you with them one day
You know a story that I know
I like to think that they both end the same
It's unclear in my mind though
Are the tears that I'm crying
For pleasure or pain
What did she tell you she wants?
Was it to hear what you wanted to say?
What did she tell you she needs?
Was it only to feel her
The real her
Chorus
