I'm flying high on something beautiful and aimless,
it's got a name but I prefer to call it nameless. It comes and goes leaves me on a bed of splinters, feels like I'm living in a town closed down for winter. The taste of Love, the more you get, the more you want, and all because, the only reason is just because. It all makes Sense, when you're near it all makes Sense. I'm standing high on tiptoes looking over fences, waiting for somebody like you to kiss me Senseless. I've had a bellyfull of faces drawn in sadness, I want to jump deep into tides of loving madness. |

A whole night,
Of talking in circles, Searching for reasons to save us, And keep it all painless. All the lies you've had to swallow Just to face the World tomorrow. Blowing bubbles it's the final straw, They never last too long but for a moment, There's perfection floating through an open door, But if you try to hold it then it turns to nothing. Your whole world, Can turn on a moment, Some things can come back and haunt you, But they're too late to warn you. Drinking in the dead of night, Tobacco clouds that sting your eyes, You've locked your feelings deep inside, Growing pains that never die, You need to sweep the picture clean, And start to dream another dream, And end this foggy yesterday that, Still reminds you. All the lies you've had to swollow, Just to face the World tomorrow. |

Night time slows, raindrops splash rainbows
Perhaps someone you know, could sparkle and shine As daydreams slide to colour from shadow Picture the moonglow, that dazzles my eyes And I love you Just lying smiling in the dark Shooting stars around your heart Dreams come bouncing in your head Pure and simple everytime Now you're crying in your sleep I wish you'd never learnt to weep Don't sell the dreams you should be keeping Pure and simple everytime Dreams of sights, of sleigh rides in seasons Where feelings not reasons, can make you decide As leaves pour down, splash autumn on gardens As colder nights harden, their moonlit delights And I love you Just lying smiling in the dark Shooting stars around your heart Dreams come bouncing in your head Pure and simple everytime Now you're crying in your sleep I wish you'd never learnt to weep Don't sell the dreams you should be keeping Pure and simple everytime Look at me with starry eyes Push me up to starry skies There's stardust in my head Pure and simple everytime Fresh and deep as oceans new Shiver at the sight of you I'll sing a softer tune Pure and simple over you If love's the truth then look no lies And let me swim around your eyes I've found a place I'll never leave Shut my mouth and just believe Love is the truth I realize Not a stream of pretty lies To use us up and waste our time Lying smiling in the dark Shooting stars around your heart Dreams come bouncing in your head Pure and simple everytime Now you're crying in your sleep I wish you'd never learnt to weep Don't sell the dreams you should be keeping Pure and simple everytime Look at me with starry eyes Push me up to starry skies There's stardust in my head Pure and simple everytime Fresh and deep as oceans new Shiver at the sight of you I'll sing a softer tune Pure and simple over you Pure and simple just for you |

He is coming down
With some kind of cold She's running around He's feeling old, he needs the rest But she wants more And then he blows like a hurricane And tears pour out and fall like rain But she'll keep holding on 'Cause it's all that she wants And she's dreaming sweet dreams tonight And with a smile that says For him she's heaven sent She's dreaming sweet dreams tonight Like a wagonwheel, that's how you make me feel You spin me round, you think I'm just your clown She is going down Down to the other side of town With open eyes that see the truth But can't see more 'Cause he might blow like a hurricane (like a hurricane) Then tears pour out and fall like rain Oh, you, you, you've got your hooks in me But oh, I never want for you to set me free Just keep a hold on me |

The voice of reason
Is rhyming with treason today The laughing Devil Is chasing the angels away The dog is barking, the baby's crying The rainy days are multiplying She says, "It's time to make decisions" Then turns on breakfast television Life's a trial But who did you leave behind When a small slice of heaven's All you could ever hope to find The opera isn't over Until the fat lady sings Then she walks into town And pawns her eternity ring She's leaving home, a dream in her pocket And a photograph in a silver locket The party's over, she's not stopping She's sick of lying, through with crying Life's a trial But who did you leave behind When a small slice of heaven's All you could ever hope to find She's leaving home, a dream in her pockets The photograph in a silver locket The sky is open and clouds are fading And that small slice of heaven's waiting Life's a trial But who did you leave behind When a small slice of heaven's All you could ever hope to find Life's a trial But who did you leave behind When a small slice of heaven's All you could ever hope to find |

Gone but not forgotten
Never mind how we spent our time The hours were never lost on you A mystery is what you are to me Hold me tight for a million years Your blood's in mine, it's like holy wine Lost inside those big brown eyes Your lips touch mine and my eyes go blind Reaching out Skin touch skin Reaching out My ups came down to the love explosion A mission of sin Reaching out My ups came down to the love explosion A smile for the moments That made me hold my breath, made me tell myself The hours were never lost on you A mystery is what you are to me |

Hold tight, all night
And don't let go My head's light, my hands are tied I won't let go Tonight, crystal lights surround me Like stars that pour in a waterfall As love comes down I found rainbows, where you go I go I'm stuck on you, I'm stuck like glue From kisses to blows, in our eyes it shows Pleasure meets paradise And it won't let go So nice, butterflies Don't let go Tonight, no thunder clouds in my skies In silver chains, the summer rain comes pouring down Here it comes, here it comes again (here it comes) I remember now, and then It's like a long-lost friend, here it comes again It's alright, I know I'm right Don't let go Hold your breath, and don't forget Don't let go |

I never meant to make you cry
A fool I was, I never meant to say goodbye Can't you feel the pressure drop? Can't you feel the pressure's off? Heaven's here in front of me I can't breath and I can't see Baby, I never realized..... As the days and the nights roll on I've prayed for this moment since the day I was born Nut, oh god, baby I never realized The joy 'till the joy was gone I know I'm wrong, I know I was so blind But worst of all, I saw the tears, I saw you cry Can't you feel the pressure drop? Can't you see the pressure's off? Heaven's here in front of me I can't breath and I can't speak Baby I never realized..... And you can build walls to surround you But I'll tear down this world 'till I've found you You're the treasure, believe me, I need you Come home..... As the days and the nights roll on I've prayed for this moment since the day I was born Nut, oh god, baby I never realized The joy 'till the joy was gone And as time rolls on I've been fighting since the day I was born But, oh god, baby I never realized The joy 'til the joy was gone Hold on, hold on, hold on |

The honey taste still hangs on my tongue
There's so many things to tell you But now you're gone, now you're gone The price of the words I could never say Was the tears washed the love away Please, please, come back to me The price as the smiles and the kisses fade Was the hopes and the memories stayed Please, please, come back to me As I search to find the reasons to bring you home The only words I can find to tell you are "I was wrong, I was wrong" The price of the words I could never say Was the tears washed the love away Please, please, come back to me The price as the smiles and the kisses fade Was the hopes and the memories stayed Maybe today or maybe tomorrow I'll have to beg you to stay I'll be your candle I'll show you the way If I could find the words To bring you back to me The price of the words I could never say Was the tears washed the love away Please, please, come back to me The price as the smiles and the kisses fade Was the hopes and the memories stayed Please, please, come back to me The price of the words I could never say Was the tears washed the love away Please, please, come back to me The price as the smiles and the kisses fade Was the hopes and the memories stayed Please, please, come back to me |

I'm not seeing very clearly
Because I'm lost in my depression, And I'm running after something, But it's in the wrong direction. If it's just a lie tell your friends, Don't make it complicated, Shake your fists at everyone, And never mind tomorrow. And you're happy, When you taste the summer madness, And run until you're breathless, And jump into the blackness. Who was the fool, Who was that fool, Who told you it's a cool place, Such a cool place. Come on, come on, Tell me you're right, Make me believe, And tell me what it feels like, When you've fallen to the bottom, Well I don't think it's over, The Devil's on your shoulder. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By IAN BROUDIE <i>Lyrics © CHRYSALIS MUSIC GROUP INC</i> |

Hollow people rattle when you shake them,
Precious things just shatter when you break them. Dreamers don't believe in explanation, Songbirds don't explain their intonation. A little rain may fall around you, Life and all its turns astound you, How you felt when love first found you, How you love to see the blue sky, And to reason why... I can't help believin', In this perfect feelin'. Like a dizzy fairground ride, Senses come alive, And I'm happy! Melodies collide with situation, Ecstasy defines its invitation. Sweeter that a fulfilled promise, Beautiful and always honest, How you feel when love surrounds you, How you love to look in her eyes, Somethin' never dies... |

The Tingle as you spin that web of lies,
Leads to a tangle that hurts the more you try. Fighting in the bathroom, Holding back the tears can make you blind. Screaming at the new moon, To swallow up the sky. Only time can melt the ice-cream clown, And frozen tears come rolling down... The tingle as you first look in those eyes, Leads to a tangle of paper chains for life. Now, Do you feel the same way too? After all this time, Could you feel the same way too? Could you? Only time can melt the ice-cream clown, His frozen tears pour down. I've had enough of paper lies, A giant breath can blow the whole world down. |

The storms of life will pass away
As I walk beside my Holy of Holies The northern lights that held my gaze Were heaven in those hellish days And once I longed to taste them all God help them When they find out That's what life is all about The words have died upon our lips The winds have blown disaster upon us All my life I've braved these thorns And weathered out the blackest storms But once I long to taste them all God help them When they find out That's what life is all about And God help us When we find out That's what love is all about Since that day, you're all I've prayed for We're bought and paid for But it's cost us both more |

Bound in a nutshell
Lost in our weary eyes We're tumbledown people Leading our tumbledon lives But a breath of life Could make our engines roar We're far from power, north of desire High and dry, hoping you'll send us From your mouth instead of lies A kiss of life, for sleeping giants Broken, bound, and battered Freezing on picket lines A colder frost can shatter And chain us for all our lives But a breath of life Can make our engines roar We're far from power, north of desire Tired and bound by all those lies As step by step, open tired eyes A kiss of life, for sleeping giants They spin our world from cruel to kind And make our futures a downward slide The strong get strong, and still want more But day by day giants thaw Tomorrow must be calling with a open door There's no-one left to start our revolution anymore We need some flames to burn down every door We're far from power, north of desire High and dry, hoping you'll send us From your mouth instead of lies A kiss of life, for sleeping giants We're far from power, north of desire Tired and bound by all those lies As step by step, open tired eyes A kiss of life, for sleeping giants |

Down here at the bottom
When you're staring at the top With a head full of ideas I'm only flesh and blood On an either down of glory And a pillow of desire Drifting on an ocean And the waves wash through my mind Something haunts us, kicks the stars from our skies Blows the lights out with the whisperin' sighs If you're down, down, I'm down, down And when you're down, down, I'm down, down Well, I was nearly me and you were nearly you The nearly man was nothing, he was never any use Beaten down by generations, of generations beaten down There's nothing I can promise that my conscience will allow Something haunts us, kicks the stars from our skies Blows the lights out with the whisperin' sighs If you're down, down, I'm down, down And when you're down, down, I'm down, down If you're down, down, I'm down, down And when you're down, down, I'm down, down If you're down, down, I'm down, down And when you're down, down, I'm down, down |

In all your life to treasure there,
the precious times, and times when it's hard to care. There's moments when they touch you with that magic touch, and you shine... You've shed that skin; it's lying there. Where are you now? I hope it's heaven there. They touch you with that magic touch, and you shine... Hold on tight, and dry those eyes, and never cry, 'cause in this world, you're upside down, when you first come round. And in this world, you're upside down, when you first come round. But even when Good seems Bad, keep trying to understand, that maybe if God's on hand, you might make it... And Oh, I miss those days. All I can say, is I miss those days |
