It's late, you open up the door. I hear your keys drop on the floor. What I wanna say. Seems like an alphabet away. . I'm worried we're in overtime. Every day another hill to climb.
I feel it tonight. All your walls are breaking, don't you put up a fight. I see your hands shaking, just let go and you're fine. Promise I'll be taking care of you in the night.
Hit you up in the middle of the night. It's dark and I want my lover. Now I'm driving 101, lil' tipsy little high. It's dark. And I want my Lover. . Ain't got no time.
Look. I get it boy. play it cool. Like I'm just a toy. So hush don`t you say it boy. Cause I know. Now we gonna destroy. You can be tough. Say thats enough.
Just before I tell you standing in the rain. I would have loved you like no other babe. But a poet needs his pain. And sometimes life can be so cruel.
Caught in a gridlock, nose to tail across all lanes. Smog nearly chocking me as the car horns go insane. 'Cause they're patiently waiting to get their old jobs backs.
You'll take me on a journey. And be there till the end. It won't be an uphill struggle. On you I can depend. . You promised me a dream home. With roses 'round the door.
Roller skates and bumblebees. Holding hands and grazing knees. Dressing up and falling down. Paul and Mike are coming 'round. . Being good to stay up late.
Help me get my feet back to solid ground. Cos were walking to the devil's beat. And it's trying to bring us down.. . Well the devil's get us rolling a 6-sided dice.
Some of us are reaching for stardust. And some of us are digging for gold. But it won't mean a lot on a mountain top. When the wind reaches out for your soul.
A simple scent of summer. Stole my heart for the last dance. The smell of two-stroke petrol. From a motorbike we used to have. . Those playing fields of cut grass.
There's an empty seat on the train today that makes its way up to the town. There a letter found on an office desk that's finally handed round. It says Julian Sidebottom William Smyth has finally come to his senses.
When the twilight fades away,. Stars light up a secret place.. Here in the silence all the night,. Wither of hope runs through the night.. . There's a clock of the heart that's got perfect timing,.
I wake up to the dawn I'm a stranger in my bed. With one eye on the circle sun I raise my weary head. I pick up my bags and bones and take one square step to the door.
She's saving all her money trying to get ahead. All the luck in the world wont keep the baby fed. And the boss is on her back and it's getting her down.
When I first set my eyes on you. You were born in black and white. Full of good intentions. You never played me any hype. You didn't want to take my money.
Street lights ablaze and the air is so dry. There's a cat in my bucket smoke covers the sky. And the sound of the traffic keeps me from my dreams. Like one million soldiers just shuffled their feet.
Would you lie would you lie lie lie in these lonely arms of mine. I wanna try I will try try try for this love one more time. Don't wanna lose you to the stars.
I remember Sundays at the Harbour Bar. Drinking cider wishing on a cheap guitar. Playing songs from the sixties and the seventies. Fleetwood Mac the Eagles and the Bee Gees.
I used to see a ballerina staring back at me. A beauty queen a singing star was all I longed to be. I'd dress up in my mother's clothes and dance the days away.
