FREEWHEELING 05:29
lyrics
buy track
I’m a sailor on your high seas You won’t find me ever earthly Will you ever see Will you ever see I’m a cygnet on your river Going back and forth, here and thither I will wave and smile Never wave goodbye Something’s stolen Something’s broken Someone fallen Some will hold on Some are roaming freewheeling I’m a joker in your parlour I will try to, to amuse you Playing parlour games Laugh away the rain I’m a painter I will paint a Picture of you, capture your hue Capture your face With only oil paint Though it’s only me What did you think you’d see Something’s stolen Something’s broken Someone hoping Life’s imploding Someone sold on To the ocean Some are frozen out Some are chosen Guess that I’m just freewheeling

Remember..... Remember how you were Remember ..... Remember when the world turned You try to..... You try to talk like you did Remember..... Remember how sweet the life Yesterday is gone but far from over And tomorrow won’t pull you under Remember..... Remember when you could fly It’s just a..... It’s just a simple lie Wade out to the shore, into the water Came in from the cold like any wanderer Remember..... Remember.....

ANOTHER MEMORY 04:29
lyrics
buy track
I don’t need another memory to fill my head I just want you in my life and in my bed More than just another good time you are the best You are the best And if I seem a little strange Maybe I’m coming on too strong, but anyway I can’t help it I been thinking about you night and day I can’t hide the way I feel I whisper down the line Don’t worry ‘bout me baby, I’m not the hurting kind I feel so sorry when you turn you head back to the sky But I love you baby You know I love you I don’t need another memory to fill my head I just want you in my life and in my bed More than just another good time you are the best You are the best And ever since the first day when I saw you there A smile on your face and your flowing crimson hair I knew that there was something strange brewing in the air Your voice was gentle sometimes living gets so hard Your touch was soothing, somehow you found a way to my heart I couldn’t bear to think we never even made it past the start So don’t throw it all away

LITTLE BIRD 03:38
lyrics
buy track
Little birds are in the field Can’t be bought they can’t be beat So just fly away And on the streets the people call The people scorn and pressmen stalk Can’t hide away Selfless courtiers on parade Another sale another day Taking back what you own Going back to what you know And no’ one gets it all From the fountain to the shore No’ one gets it at all Streaming down a lonely hill Little bird flies and sings Just a cry away Until one day the vultures call Grew too loud she just couldn’t be heard anymore Hanging with the London guns Taking hits for everyone Falling demons falling hail Little bird trapped in their cage And no’ one gets it all From the mountain to the wall No’ one gets it at all And all that’s left in paradise People laugh together walk in line But they won’t fly away

THE MOON 05:25
lyrics
buy track
I was only a child when I first caught your eye On a train bound for Birmingham And I knew from the start you could sabotage my heart For a new love you’d meet at the next turn And the poison you gave it still burns (chorus) But the moon keeps on letting her down And the stars up above have her pinned to the ground Yes the moon keeps on letting her down But I won’t cry No I won’t cry I was only a child when I first heard your lies In a room up on Villiers Street You spoke of the Gods and the angels and stars You claimed that you could see Apollo in me I laughed till I fell off my feet I was older and sane when I saw you again Leaning ‘gainst the rail to keep you thoughts upright And I thought to myself can’t go through this scene again I found the way out just in time I was gone by the morning light Well I’m sorry my friend if I seem to offend But you really shouldn’t treat people this way And I don’t want to hate but you sicken me with rage I hope I never have to see again Take your words back they’re useless anyway (Chorus) But she won’t cry No she won’t cry

SOMEWHERE 04:04
lyrics
buy track
Somewhere across the sea and over A strange land without water Just oil upon the sand Someone is hiding in the tower Among the plastic flowers And sleeping with the past Till the end of time they will not ease Till there’s nothing left of you and me Till the cloud bursts high and everyone falls down Somewhere a train is headed nowhere And filled with virgin soldiers Screeching on the track Someone is waiting for the order Is waiting by the border Obeying all commands Just a number on your t.v screen Just a picture on the mantelpiece Just a flaming ball into the world that you own

IT'S NO SECRET 04:12
lyrics
buy track
In the light – nothing is lost and nothing matters much at all Never mind – the nights we spent are gone and that is all she wrote So straighten up your face And come out of the rain There’s no hiding place Might as well just play It’s no secret that I loved you You just knew it all too well And it’s no secret that you want me Anyone with brains could tell Out of time – you say that you can’t find a minute in your day By and by – I don’t expect to see you ‘round here anyway So turn your eyes away And find another game I’m walking down the lane I got no love to waste, no no It’s no secret that I loved you Any fool with eyes could see And it’s no secret that you want it too You just bring it on to me It’s no secret that I loved you Any simple mind can feel And it’s no secret that you want it too You just bring it on to me

SUMMER LOVE 04:29
lyrics
buy track
Come down to the meadow My only desire With you resting over me Helplessly entwined Your touch is all I need My summer love My summer love Come over to the window There’s something in the field We could lie on a hill somewhere And give in to belief As the rain washes over Our summer love Swallows wake in the morning sun All the bad things are gone All the music that we’ll become Fills my soul Come out to the mountains I’ll show you in a dream We could dance by a dying flame In the mystic Autumn breeze But let’s not think about tomorrow My summer love

MARIANNE 02:33
lyrics
buy track
Along the riverbank they walked hand in hand And the drums beat far below And every day it was just the same And the water gently flowed Do you care that the rivers turned black Do you miss me at all Marianne Yes I tried to be all that I could be To stay up in your heart In your flowered dress and old fashioned sense I’d never stray too far Do you wonder sometimes where it’s at Do you miss me at all Marianne Now the nights are long and the flowers gone And so much is left behind And the sunlight burns through a desert world I’ve seen people fall like flies Do you bury your head in the sand Do you miss me at all Marianne
