I don't know what the hell just happened 'cause I've nearly lost control
In the middle of our conversation I couldn't speak anymore
All the words simply lost their meaning in an unusual way
I see your mouth has moved
Who do you think you fooled
With the spew and the spit you say
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
You want an answer to your question but I can't repeat
I'm sorry for my blank reaction but the words are evading me
And every bit of my senses are now pushed into overdrive
I see your lips are moving faster than your speed of lies
I can't walk, I can't talk, I can't eat, I can't sleep
I can't even barely breathe
Between the black and the out and the proof and the doubt
I can barely speak
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
You want an answer to your question but I can't repeat
I'm sorry for my blank reaction but the words are evading me
I can't walk, I can't talk, I can't eat, I can't sleep
I can't even barely breathe
Between the black and the out and the proof and the doubt
I can barely speak
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
I don't have the words to say it
You've got me tongue tied, tongue tied
Every time I try to name it
You leave me, tongue tied, tongue tied
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words

I kneel before her and pray to God I’m mystified
Shiva take me higher into your river wide
It’s in the water of her luminous sea
It’s her enigma that keeps calling on me
India, India, India, India
I hear a heartbeat in the desert of my sole
She will comfort with the touch of her majestic role
Her wind becomes my life protecting me from nature’s harm
Bathe me in her water she will take me in her arms
India, India, India, India
India, India, India, India
India, India, India, India

NO MORE SPINNING ‘ROUND IN ETERNITY
NO MORE FALLOUT OF MY PAST DEBRIS
I’M SO TIRED MY LOVE
TIRED OF BEING ME
TOO MANY YEARS IV’E FLOATED

AND FROM THE CLOUDS THAT I AM BURNING DOWN
NO MORE PILOT LIFE, LOVE
I’VE JOURNEYED HOME FOR GOOD
I’M A SATELLITE, LOVE
BURNING OUT FOR YOU
SO LONG TO THE STAR
SO LONG TO THESE SCARS
I’M A SATELITE LOVE
I’LL COME CRASHING DOWN FOR YOU

Turn off the television, turn off the radio
sweet solitude, we’ve got nothing left to lose
To the roof of the tallest building
We will desperately disappear
I don’t know but it’s better than being here
There’ll be nothing wrong on planet earth tonight
Nothing’s wrong at all
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
The city she’s grown tired
As her babies go to sleep
Up there in the quiet air we’ll be foolish and naïve
From this 50 something lookout skyscraping a mile high
We’ll be King and Queen, love supreme, even if it’s just for one time
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
Nothing’s wrong at all
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
Gonna give back our complications, gonna send them back to a sorry world
We got to throw back our ultimatum, send it crashing back down to the earth
Know more time for her sad frustration, we’ll leave it for the lonely and absurd
In a skyline constellation 50 stories up above the earth
From the earth, from the earth, from the earth
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
Nothing’s wrong at all
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
Nothing’s wrong at all
Nothing’s wrong on planet earth tonight
Nothing’s wrong at all
We will desperately…
Goodbye

The strangest kind of yearning
Has got me caught between my heart
In between my wondering
Am I awake or am I dreaming?
I’ve been searching high and low
Just to find a meaning
So I will wait for all tomorrows
With the patience of a job
Through the thick and through my sorrow
And a candle full of hope
Despite the fate of our lives
Or a mountain divide
I'll wait for the Stars to align
Between the light in the skies
Or eternities time
I'll wait for the Stars to align
A thousand miles I will travel
For love is all but lost
'Cause love is all but losing you
Left to search in the unknown
Through the darkness I will find
As your star comes into view
And I will walk into tomorrow
I will walk on sand and stone
Through the tears and through the gravel
Burn a candle full of hope
I will look into the heavens
I will search through the desert
Until the night that has past
Or eternities cast
If it takes forever
God knows how I loved you
It's your stars that I cling to
I will hang onto hope
'Til your love I will find
If it takes forever
If it takes the stars to align

I going to cliff side up the mountain and dance upon its peak
Dive the bluest water, swim the deepest sea
I’ll be the star that you see at night in the autumn moon
I’m gonna sore throughout the biggest sky, the wind will be my tune
I’ll be clothed by the sunshine that’s warming up your face
And every time you think of me you feel my loved embrace
I’m gonna sail across the ocean tide adrift from end to end
For the whale and the albatross will be my brother friends
Floating freely, floating freely
Gonna be the snow that softly falls on the forest tree
And when you walk that winter trail you know that frost is me
I’ll be the sound of the summer bird in your garden grove
When you stop and smell the flowers baby you’ll know that you are loved
All heaven throughout the universe and bounce between the sun
I’ll be a part of her energy, I’ll be a part of the holy one
When I cross the river Jordan and roll along the fields
Just close your eyes and think of me and know my love is real
When she says my name and she calls on me
I leave behind this blood and bone
Just glide my soul into eternity
Let it fly for my spirit must be flown
Floating freely, floating freely

If loves an adrenaline then baby you’ve taken me to new heights
I've never flown this fast before
Throw away all the fear as we jump into a new life
No need to be afraid anymore
Life is a moment, kick start and own it
Falling in seconds flat, bring on the heart attack
Soaring the atmosphere, nothing left for us to fear,
Hang on their baby, 'cause we're just about to walk right
Outta the blue and into the sky
That's when I knew I had to fly with feeling
Into my head maybe outta my mind
That's when I knew my heart started beating
Outta the clouds and into my life
All that it takes is a step worth leaping
Outta the air head into the dive
Falling in love is like parachuting
It's a big leap of faith and a jump to our fate in an airflow
I'll be death defying for you
Cloud busting the air like we don't give a care now
A 10 mile high point of view
Love is a moment, reach out and own it
Falling in seconds flat bring on the heart attack
Scanning the stratosphere what else is there to fear
Hang on their honey cause we're just about to step right
Outta the blue and into the sky
That's when I knew I had to fly with feeling
Into my head maybe outta my mind
That's when I knew my heart started beating
Outta the clouds and into my life
All that it takes is a step worth leaping
Outta the air head into the dive
Falling in love is like parachuting
It's a long way up
It's a fast way down
Its a highway sky with no feet on the ground
In a freeway flight in an airborne sea
Come on baby as long as you're falling with me
It's a question of faith, it may be frightening too
In the end of it all it's just me and you
It's a matter of trust it's a matter of just say I do, just say I do
Outta the blue and into the sky
That's when I knew I had to fly with feeling
Into my head maybe outta my mind
That's when I knew my heart started beating
Outta the clouds and into my life
All that it takes is a step worth leaping
Outta the air head into the dive
Falling in love is like parachuting

THEY CAN CALL US TWO LONESOME BELIEVERS
BUT THERE’S HAS YET TO COME
YEAH, WE’RE HOPELESSLY UNGROUNDED
WITHOUT MUCH AND DESPERATELY UNDONE
LOST WITHIN A NIGHT TIME TO NOWHERE
AT A COST OF ONE’S OWN BLOOD
FORGET TODAY, TOMORROW AND NEXT YEAR
AND FALL HOPELESSLY IN LOVE
YES I AM A DREAMER
YES WE ARE A SUN
GOD I HOPE IT GETS US SOMEWHERE
IF TOMORROW EVER COMES
THE STARLESS SKY IS TAPPING AT OUR WINDOW
AND CRYING OUT OUR NAME
IT’S MOON SHINES A SLIVERED MIRROR
NEVER TO DAWN IT’S OWN DAY
IT’LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU
NEVER HEAR A SINGLE WORD
FORGET THE SKY, THE MOON AND HER SORROW
AND LIVE HOPELESSLY IN OUR WORLD

Everybody gets a little lucky
Sometimes with love and sometimes with money
But basically it’s the same old story
You throw the dice and hope it’s a two
The Casino of you, yeah
Everybody thinks they are a player
Flip a card in there truth or dare
You play it hard with a simple stare
Hold your hand tight, ‘till the end of the deal
You think it’s steal, your numb to the feel
Your numb to the feel then you lay it down for real
I took the chance and gambled the heart from my sleeve
I lay it on the card line
Odds against the ace that you played perfectly
Well better luck the next time
Everybody gets a little lonely
At the table when you are the only
Person losing to the fakes and phonies
You spin the wheel and hope it lands on the black
Lover come back
I took the chance and gambled the heart from my sleeve
I lay it on the card line
Odds against the ace that you played perfectly
Well better luck the next time
Everybody gets a little lucky
Well better luck the next time

Rays and rays of useless days in this situated comedy
Funny how it always sounds the same
Somewhere below this urban sky the angels swear when they have to fly
I doubt that you can hear of what they say
I heard the words I saw the scene
I heard them talking on TV and even though I understand
I just don't give a damn
Sky clouds now bathed in blue leads your senses out of tune
Amazing how it makes you drift away
It's never quite as good it seems in a Coca Cola dream
Hell I wasn't born just yesterday
What they said didn't want to know
I heard them talking 'bout you Jo and even though I understand
I just don't give a damn
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
And I'm going crazy living by my last nerve
I'm living lonely in a headphone world
I don't expect you to understand
Cause I'm trying not to, yeah I'm try not to bury myself in the sand
Rays and rays of useless days in this situated comedy
Funny how it always sounds the same
Somewhere below this urban sky the angels swear when they have to fly
I doubt that you can hear of what they say
I heard the words I saw the scene
I heard them talking on TV and even though I understand
I don't give a damn
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
Living lonely in a headphone world, living lonely in a headphone world

I accept, I believe
What else baby do you need?
Singing for a love unknown
Purple haze, tidal wave Tell me baby, have you been saved?
Reaching for a love unknown And singing for a love unknown
All that doubt hanging about
Tell me baby did you cast them out
Hoping for a love unknown And reaching for a love unknown
A love unknown
Would it ever lift you up A love unknown
Would it ever be enough?
Between the wars of closing doors
Tell me baby was it yours
Praying for a love unknown
Hoping for a love unknown Reaching for a love unknown

I don't need to climb the top of an Everest mountain
I don't need to sail the world's bluest sea
You can cut down your garden of crimson roses
Go steal away all the gold from the streets up in heaven
I don't wanna feel the "JOI DE VIVRE" of a Paris evening
Please melt away the first fallen snow in December
Go cool the warmest breezes of a virgin island
Stop counting, all your starlights
Go turn off, all your sunsets
'Cause all I want, is what is here
All I need is my, my beautiful
You're my beautiful
You are my beautiful one

STANDING UPON A STORMY GROUND
THE SMOKEY SMELL OF AUTUMN’S CALL
AND THE WIND BLOWS HARD TO PULL US ‘ROUND
FOR WINTERS BLANKET WON’T BE LONG
AS SLEEPERS DREAM OF STORMY CLOUDS
A FIRELIGHT WILL BURN A SHROUND
ON THE BACKS OF LOVERS TO KEEP THEM WARM
AND SHELTERS THEM WITH ALL IT’S LOVE
YES I’M HOLDIN’ ON
THIS I WILL REMEMBER
GUESS WE BOTH BELONGED
TO THESE MOMENTS OF SEPTEMBER
THE DAYLIGHTS WARMING SEPTEMBER MORN
A FROZEN WINDOW BEGINS IT’S THAW
SIMMERING COFFEE ON THE STOVE
KISS ME BAY, I’M SO IN LOVE
GOIN’ BACK TO REMEMBER
TO THE DAYS OF SEPTEMBER
THE LAST TWO DAYS OF ….
CHILL THE COOL OCTOBER SUN
FOR THE END OF SEPTEMBER HAS JUST BEGUN
COME COLOURS OF NATURE COLOUR US LOVE
WITH THE FALL OF THE HEAVENS FROM UP ABOVE
AS SLEEPERS WALK THROUGH STORMY NIGHTS
A CANDLE REFLECTS IN THEIR EYES
AND INTO THE HEARTS OF THE LOVERS’ DAWN
WILL WAKE THE FROST OF AUTUMN’S LOVE

Hello my friend its really great to see you smile
I'd shake your hand but something just ain't feeling right
Tell me what your thinking of
Tell how me how your life is up
You speak a few words but they don't have meaning
Hello my sweet
It's wonderful to finally meet
Been meaning to catch up with you throughout the year
Your silent smile has an oddness to it
I'm really having a hard to time to see passed through it
I can't quite put my finger on it, I don't know why but I'm feeling haunted
Something is wrong it doesn't belong it's not natural
Something's Kinda Weird
I can't quite put my finger on it
I don't know why but I'm feeling haunted
Something is wrong it doesn't belong it's not natural
Something's Kinda Weird
I can't quite put my finger on it, Something's Kinda Weird

BUT MY NOTHIN’, CARNAL-CASUAL SATURDAY LOVER
I LIKE THE SWEET SMELL OF STRANGER SEX
YOUR REFLEX IN MY HEAD LEAVES ME LIKE NO OTHER
I DON’T REALLY HAVE TO LOVE YOU BABY
THAT’S THE BEAUTIFUL THING
BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LOVE ME
ONLY THE RICH WILL SWING
MY DIRTY LITTLE HABITS
KEEP ME CRAWLIN’ BACK TO YOU FOR SOME AFFECTION
SO PAY YOU UP AND LAY ME DOWN
AND DROWN ME IN ADDICTIVE BLUE INFECTION
I DON’T REALLY HAVE TO LOVE YOU BABY
THAT’S THE BEAUTIFUL THING
BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LOVE ME
ONLY THE RICH WILL SWING
CURE MY LONELINESS WITH CARESSES
AND HEAR MY DESPERATE SIGHS OF CONFESSION
LOVES EMPTINESS AND WASHED OUT ILLUSIONS
I’M FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY FEAR AND CONFUSION
TO REALIZE A BASTARD LIFE
OF MISERY & PAIN & STRIFE
NOT FAILED BY ACCIDENT BUT DESIGN
YOUR LOVE FOR ME PORTRAYS THE CRUELEST KIND
TRUE LOVE L’LL NEVER FIND

A NO-NAME DINNER FOR TWO
A PEPSI ON MY TV TRAY
THERE IS FIGHTING ON THE TALK SHOW
AND FIGHTING DOWN THE HALL
I WISH THAT THEY WOULD STOP
THE SMELL OF GOODWILL IN MY FURNITURE
AND GOODWILL IN MY CLOTHES
THESE OLD SHIRTS NEVER LOOKED SO COOL
I LIKE THE NICOTINE ON MY CEILING
THE RETRO IN MY RUG
MY BARE FEET’S NEVER FELT SO GOOD
IT’S BEEN YEARS SINCE I’VE BEEN HAPPY
IT’S BEEN A CHANGE FROM ONE EXTREME
INCASE YOU HAVE BEEN WONDERING
HERE’S A POLAROID OF ME
VIRGIN MARY COMES TO ME
AS A STAIN ON A BATHROOM TILE
I HOPE SHE PLANS ON STAYING LONG
‘CAUSE THAT THIRD FLOOR MUFFLED STEREO
PUMPING THROUGH THE WALLS
I PRAY SHE’D SHUT IT OFF
THERE ARE CRACKS THROUGHOUT MY WINDOW PANE
AND BURNOUT ON MY STOVE
COINCIDENTALLY APRA-PEAUX
BUT I’M COMFORTABLY CASUAL
AND ELEGANTLY BROKE
MY SOLE IS FAR FROM BEING POOR
I HOPE THAT YOU’VE BEEN HAPPY
WITH A CHANGE IN EVERYTHING
WELL HERE’S A PERSONALIZED POSTCARD
BABY, HERE’S A POLAROID OF ME, A POLAROID OF ME
SAY HI TO YOUR MOTHER AND HOW IS YOUR DAD
THOUGH THINGS AIN’T BEEN TOO EASY
IT’S REALLY NOT THAT BAD
I MAY NOT LOOK RESPECTABLE AND I MAY NOT LOOK TOO CLEAN
BUT IF A PICTURE PAINTS A THOUSAND WORDS
THEN BABY HERE’S A THOUSAND WORDS OF ME
A THOUSAND WORDS OF ME
A POLAROID OF ME

I stood and witnessed as the sun gave up light
T’was the end of the Icarus as he fell from his flight
The garden of our Eden has turned into sand
Scars of the people by the burns on their back
It was a red sun, red sun, red sun horizon
It was a red sun, red sun, red sun horizon
I stood and waited for the stop of the heat
But the temperature kept rising from the west to the east
The people who had gathered to see the raincloud give birth
Raised their fists together to a big angry world
Another red sun, red sun, red sun horizon
Another red sun, red sun, red sun horizon
Then the morning kicked night
With the warmth of the light, big bright and yellow
Then she opened her eyes and gave back our lives
The beg and borrowed
No more despair between hope and what’s fair
Brother to brother
No more fears or blood, sweat and tears
No more struggle
The sun of the seasons overshadows the grief
She burnt down the empires deviate right of kings
Rays of her justice, shone down everywhere
It was the end of the battle between hope and despair
No more red sun, red sun, no more red sun horizon
No more red sun, no more red sun, no more red sun horizon
No more red sun, no more red sun, no more red sun horizon

This is the story of our lives from one end to the very extreme
How the hell do we survive when we're face to face but still cannot speak
It's the chance of life's hope from the bad to the good was it never our song to sing
With the still of a dance and the end of a story I will always love you
Forever hopelessly believe
With every drop of my blood I will bleed for you
And every break of my heart let it beat for you
And all the light of my soul let it shine to you
Until the very last breath of my life live and die for you
This is the story of our love complicated by the scars we can't see
The silent words have a meaning and the silence is near killing me
It's the end of romantics the last of the chances everything was yesterday
Blame the hearts on our sleeve or the web that we weave
My love will always be for you
Even if it fades away
With every drop of my blood I will bleed for you
And every break of my heart let it beat for you
And all the light of my soul let it shine to you
Until the very last breath of my life live and die for you
It's over, the party is now over
The years have made us older
There's just me and you
The clouds have hid the sunsets
The have churned the conflicts
It was perfectly imperfect in loving you
Imperfectly loving you
With every drop of my blood I will bleed for you
And every break of my heart let it beat for you
And all the light of my soul let it shine to you
Until the very last breath of my life live and die for you

I know what it’s all about
On the surface you’ve got it put together
I think, sure you can fake it out
But you can’t hide blue eyes forever
To be a little Honest, face your fact, to be a little honest
Chorus To be a little Honest, Honest, its’ so hard to take
To be a little Honest, Honest, it’s so hard to fake
To be a little Honest, Honest, not that bad to ask
To be a little Honest, Honest, to take away your mask
I see, the crack inside your smile
Face the fact the end of your act is revealing
I doubt, you have the courage now
But I hope one day you can stop the fearing
To be a little Honest, face your fact, to be a little honest
Chorus And be a little Honest, Honest, now it’s so hard to take
To be a little Honest, Honest, cause now it’s so hard to fake
To be a little Honest, Honest, not that bad to ask
To be a little Honest, Honest, to take away your mask
I think it’s time to stand up to the truth and the consequence
Wake up to the circumstance, before it gets too far
Take away the frame you hide in your photograph
cause this is your epitaph
The coward that you are
Doot, doot , ndoot, do, do, doot, ndoot, do, do, ha, ha
Honest, ha, ha

Cast away the cross of what we bare
Into the depths of our doomed overture
Escape our destiny to no return
Tell me baby just when will we learn
The situation leaves us cold and thawed
Just the price of love will hurt the heart
Either way we’ve one hour to decide
Just one day to live our lives
We follow the laws of what we love, We can begin to worry now
You hold my hand I hold your heart, To the day of our new start
And even as we try to dream , Our love is all that has to speak
We make the world just go away, Let us start our own escape
Let’s breathe a breath back into you and me
Before the fall of our soles casualty
And as the world concludes its desperate song
We can say our love has just begun
We follow the laws of what we love, We can begin to worry now
You hold my hand I hold your heart, To the day of our new start
And even as we try to dream, Our love is all that has to speak
We make the world just go away, Let us start our own escape
Your love’s my great escape

Habitual and sensual, physical and chemical
You must understand, what the hell makes me a man
You’re so beautiful and natural but most of all sexual
Don’t disagree whenever you want to, whenever you got to get to me
I never was a man of violence
Never ever do I think it’s cool
But justified inside the evidence
Baby, baby you may just have to call me cruel
Hypnotized and mesmerized, tantalized and feminized
You’ll say what you can but you can’t even try to stop me ‘cause, I’m the man
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Magnetized and sensitized, sexualized or otherwise
I’ll never be the same
So baby don’t ever deny you ever play that game
I never was a man of violence
Never ever do I think it’s cool
But justified inside the evidence
Baby, baby you may just have to call me cruel
You’re so beautiful and natural but most of all sexual
Now understand what the hell makes me a man
I never was a man of violence
Never ever do I think it’s cool
But justified inside the evidence
Baby, baby you may just have to call me cruel

Packed it in, bagged it up
Fade to black, don't look back
Stop the bus, unlock my belt
For this is my exit ramp
I spit my shoes and combed my hair
Look so good, can’t stand the glare.
Got no money, got no cash
But a million bucks in happiness
I'll be Starsky, you be Hutch
It makes no sense, It’s out to lunch
Meet the freaks, what the fuck
Flip a coin and press our luck
Destination, habitation
Permanent grin and bent salvation
Lifes a blast, Lifes a ball
Be yourself in Montreal
Blood to bone, bone to blood
Put it in a mix and blend it up
Ricochet it all through the night
Voodoo it ‘til it breaks the light
A bit of glitter, A bit of glam
Another wham bam and thank you Ma'am
It's Ok yeah, It’s alright, just pout your mouth
let’s kiss goodnight
Suffragettes and supernovas
Celebrastars and big king cobras
Royalty of the trash bin jokers
Slap my face so good to know ya
Destination, habitation
Permanent grin and bent Salvation
Lifes a blast, lifes a ball
Be yourself in Montreal
I wanna be part of the picture
I wanna cut of the deal
I wanna strut my shit and slut my dance
And get to know everything by feel
I wanna be a 'Hopeless Believer'
Be hopelessly divine
Gonna give it some gas, gonna give it my all
Me, myself and Montreal

Rays and rays of useless days in this situated comedy
Funny how it always sounds the same
Somewhere below this urban sky the angels swear when they have to fly
I doubt that you can hear of what they say
I heard the words I saw the scene
I heard them talking on TV and even though I understand
I just don't give a damn
Sky clouds now bathed in blue leads your senses out of tune
Amazing how it makes you drift away
It's never quite as good it seems in a Coca Cola dream
Hell I wasn't born just yesterday
What they said didn't want to know
I heard them talking 'bout you Jo and even though I understand
I just don't give a damn
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
And I'm going crazy living by my last nerve
I'm living lonely in a headphone world
I don't expect you to understand
Cause I'm trying not to, yeah I'm try not to bury myself in the sand
Rays and rays of useless days in this situated comedy
Funny how it always sounds the same
Somewhere below this urban sky the angels swear when they have to fly
I doubt that you can hear of what they say
I heard the words I saw the scene
I heard them talking on TV and even though I understand
I don't give a damn
Been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long
A long, long lonely day
Living lonely in a headphone world, living lonely in a headphone world

I WANNA GIVE BACK MY PART OF CIVILIZATION
TRADE IT ALL IN FOR A COUPE DE WHATEVER
AND A PACK OF CHERRY MENTHOL HOMEMADES
GRAB MY STASH AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD WORRY
ABOUT BEING A FEW BUCKS SHORT OF AN INCOME
JUST REV IT UP, MAXIMIZE, UTILIZE UNTIL WERE
500 MILES AWAY FROM WHERE WE’VE ALWAYS BEEN TO
SAY GOODBYE
GOD, JUST TO FEEL THE HOT SUMMER EVENING TEASE THE
INNER PARTS OF OUR SANITY
THE WIND, YOU LOOKING AT ME, ME LOOKING AT YOU
JUST THROWING OUR HEADS BACK AND LAUGHING AT IT ALL
NO ROCK MUSIC
NOTHING BUT A FEW BARS OF NOTHING AND THE NICEST SCOTCH WE CAN AFFORD
PULL UP TO THE CHEAPEST TO BIT TWO BY FOUR SIDE SHACK
AND CATACLYSMICALLY BOUNCE OF OUR DESPERATION
SO HEAR WE ARE, TWO COMMON LOSERS
STUCK IN A CHEAP WHORE’N BEDROOM
AND DRUNK ON THE FUMES OF LOST INHIBITIONS
AND STEALING TIME, STEALING TIME, LOVE IS KIND
UNTIL THE MORNING LIGHT
RIGHT NOW LIFE COULDN’T GET MUCH BETTER.
SAY GOODBYE

STANDING UPON A STORMY GROUND
THE SMOKEY SMELL OF AUTUMN’S CALL
AND THE WIND BLOWS HARD TO PULL US ‘ROUND
FOR WINTERS BLANKET WON’T BE LONG
AS SLEEPERS DREAM OF STORMY CLOUDS
A FIRELIGHT WILL BURN A SHROUND
ON THE BACKS OF LOVERS TO KEEP THEM WARM
AND SHELTERS THEM WITH ALL IT’S LOVE
YES I’M HOLDIN’ ON
THIS I WILL REMEMBER
GUESS WE BOTH BELONGED
TO THESE MOMENTS OF SEPTEMBER
THE DAYLIGHTS WARMING SEPTEMBER MORN
A FROZEN WINDOW BEGINS IT’S THAW
SIMMERING COFFEE ON THE STOVE
KISS ME BAY, I’M SO IN LOVE
GOIN’ BACK TO REMEMBER
TO THE DAYS OF SEPTEMBER
THE LAST TWO DAYS OF ….
CHILL THE COOL OCTOBER SUN
FOR THE END OF SEPTEMBER HAS JUST BEGUN
COME COLOURS OF NATURE COLOUR US LOVE
WITH THE FALL OF THE HEAVENS FROM UP ABOVE
AS SLEEPERS WALK THROUGH STORMY NIGHTS
A CANDLE REFLECTS IN THEIR EYES
AND INTO THE HEARTS OF THE LOVERS’ DAWN
WILL WAKE THE FROST OF AUTUMN’S LOVE

I’m a day tripper
A krishna flipper
Hangin’ my head in outer ‘burbia
Better than this to be better than that
Mama leave me alone
I’m a lazy cat
Like a lava flow
I’d rather take it slow
Livin’ a life comatose
I’d rather sit and smoke
Maybe read a book
Gotta a serious dose of the
Heavy bones, heavy bones
Some will call me slack
Don’t you gimme your jack
Make it rush, make it push
Give a heart attack
I’m a middle class, white ass
Motor crashed, junk trashed
In my blood flows the johnny black
It’s a mission
No competition
Everybody’s love is what I am wishin’
I’d rather sit and smoke
While I’m comatose
Gotta serious dose of the
Heavy bones, heavy bones
It’s harder to get up than to get down

This winter time is killing me
Theirs a blizzard in the wind and bitter chill beneath my skin
Somewhere deep in this scenery, I’ve never felt so cold before
And my heavy heart has never felt so, sore
To have and to hold
Take this chill from in my heart, take the winter from my soul
To have and to hold
No more songs of Auld Lang Syne, kiss me lover back to life
This winter sleep is killing you
Theirs a winter burn inside your breath
Solitude and emptiness
This frigid sky, so dark and cold
Tonight is not a night for anyone to be alone
To have and to hold
Take this chill from in my heart, take this winter from my soul
To have and to hold
No more songs of Auld Lang Syne, Kiss me lover back to life
This winter frost is killing us
As we drift and stumble in ourselves
And freeze within our loneliness
So take our hands and wipe away our tears
Hold me tight my baby now
On the coldest, on the coldest night of the year
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
To have and to hold
Someone to have, somebody here
Someone to hold me close
On the coldest night of the year
To have and to hold
