We met on that wednesday night. I was down but you were so bright. I remember that wednesday night so well. We played guitar all those afternoons. . Heard records on the floor of your room.
Well, hello there, sweet to see you. Like your colour, how you doin'?. I've been battered and bewildered. In the beauty of your ruins. . Flash, flash and I am blinded.
Born on a junk heap in the sea. Cursed with the notion to be free. White and bright and twenty one. But in my heart I'm on the run. . I kissed the lips of eau de vie.
I've been searching. Seems like so long. For perfection. In a world made wrong. . Here it's hard to be strong. Seems like we're heading. Down and down and down.
Over my head, over my head. And I can't get free from these chains. Over my head go the things that we said. And I long to be above pain. . When your heart is broken.
What do you mean by beauty?. Hope you know the consequences. 'Cos beauty wounds will make us strong. With truth we'll test our old defenses. . And all my friends will make amends.
One and one. One and one. One and one. One and one. . One and one. One and one. One and one. One and one. . One and one is one I hear. But it breaks my heart to come so near.
Words and music by roddy frame. . Everybody's walking through the city all alone. But no one talks about it. I am just a simple, unassuming kind of man.
From the mountain tops down to the sunny street. A different drum is playin' a different kind of beat. It's like a mystery that never ends. I see you cryin' and I want to kill your friends.
All the madness in the mirror. The tremblin' and the tears. It takes a long time comin' out. It's comin' out of here. . I've been wandering your London town.
In the streets of this once great city. Conquered again as it once was before. Toppled not by bombs nor armies. Impossible promises, impossible dreams.
As you see the people congregated. This truly is my finest hour. Church bells ring in every city, every town. Herald the arrival of a new world order.
I've seen that recipe, oh yeah. Lawmen and royalty. And nothing on earth can take that taste. And make it something sweet. . I saw the news today, oh yeah.
There I was reaching out for a hand. But the concept was out of my grasp. I only wanted to be one with the word. I only wanted to see it's fruition. .
The sun that drowns everything in gold. Feeling it taking hold, holding her hand. The hue of her hair, coloring every care. Willing to share, who'd understand?.
Jackin' in and letting go. It's reality in control. Corporate man on the totem pole. Live the net is status quo. . VR love and lines of blow. Climb their backs and up you'll go.
Open my eyes see the fires in the distance. Open my ears hear the cries in the night. Madness has found this city at last. The day of judgement has fmally arrived.
I laughed until it got too dark. Somewhere else her voice will bark. Someone else will be involved. Someone stronger still. . I'm lost here by myself.
Well, when I've questioned. All I could and come undone. And only sadness stands. Between me and the sun. . When loving leaves and leaves me. Waiting on the one.
Here I sit. Upon the sands of time. Holding visions. Deep within my mind. Wondering now. I look up to the sky. To know someday. I am going to die. . Sit back and time will tell.
