Where I met a Spanish Porter who obliged me with his grin
He asked me for my time, I said I'd take a glass of wine And in my altered state of mind I opened up, he jumped right in Oh, some things never turn out right Oh, some things never turn out right Mister, Mistress, Mistress Of Erzulie Mister, Mistress, Mistress Of Erzulie He kissed me in the lobby on the way to Pat O'Briens No, it didn't take much science to discover what was next W'suddenly a woman with a shrunken-headed necklace She made me feel so reckless, sexless in my innocence Oh some things never turn out right She led me to the levy, I was helpless as a lamb "Don't you know who I am," she said, "Your Nemesis is free" I was wired like a weapon, I was dancin' like the Dirvish When I woke up feverishly looking down at me Mister, Mistress, Mistress Of Erzulie From the coveted Ark, To Noah in Asia Sodom and Gomorrah, the light and the dark Chased by the demon to the caves of the Burren Imprisoned by the truth in the tales of the Turrin From original sin to original blame, for shame, for shame Oh some things never turn out right Mister, Mistress, Mistress Of Erzulie |

Blow wind blow all my worries
Away from me Blow wind blow a little heaven my way Blow wind blow a little heaven my way Day goes down Upon this dirty little town You gotta find another lonely soul To share the night So may you never end All my sweet and ragged friends Won't you raise your glass, your voice And your will to fight Cause your life belongs to you Verse II: Love's unkind It'll make your heart unwind You gotta send a message To yourself to carry on Burnt out and broke Another romance in smoke You better love a little bit of Somethin' that'll make you strong Here's a song to see you through Yes a song will see you through Chorus: Blow wind blow all my worries Away from me Blow wind blow a little heaven my way Blow wind blow a little heaven my way 2X Solo: Verse III: Life comes true In spite of, Everything we do You gotta, learn to love When the joke is played on you The great unknown Will make you shiver to the bone You wanna close your eyes And pretend you're not alone Here's a song to sing you home Yes a song will sing you home Chorus 4X |

Sweet breeze, blowin' through a summer dress
Seen from a window above Captured in the eyes of love Shivers, in the cool forbidden dawn Where the Iris and Jasmin run wild She was young and he was a child He vanished like July Some folks, they wondered why But old money has its friends Ain't it funny how the truth will bend It's the family secret, don't pass it on Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong It's the family secret of her mystery... Whispers, how they sound like raindrops Hush now we'll make it alright She's framed by the front porch light Uuuhuh, suspicion, raising up like dragonflies They say there's a story to tell Buried in the family well Now the congregation prays Save us from our evil ways But old money has its friends Ain't it funny how the truth will bend It's the family secret, it's the family secret, don't pass it on Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong It's the family secret, just let it be I know the secret of her mystery... It's the family secret, it's the family secret It's the family secret, don't pass it on Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong It's the family secret, just let it be I know the secret to her mystery Keep it in the family now, behind closed doors Past the rows of cypress trees, through the Spanish moss Those old stone walls It's the family secret, it's the family secret |

I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin
In this Belfast town It's like I've been waitin' 'til my life begins And love comes around I wander through the streets and I see them look away The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name I go out walking in the cold Irish rain Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door With his poison gaze I've stared out his window and I've walked the floor Of this sorry place I'll take comfort in the cold until I find my faith again Oh God know I've tried but I just can't fit in I go out walking in the cold Irish rain What I'd give to see the sun on your face To lose myself, in a long embrace How I'd love to hear the band start to play As you turn me around, Oh I long for the day The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way In these broken times They sold off your story and they stole your rage With this heart of mine They pulled you from your sleep And they covered up your name Now on Sundays they pray to see you again I go out walking in the cold Irish rain I go out walking in the cold Irish rain I go out walking in the cold Irish rain... In the rain, in the rain. |

I catch a chill when I look into your eyes
Something too familiar, I seem to recognize Like lookin' in the mirror baby and I'm scared of what I see Lookin' at you baby, is the dark side of me Comin' from the same place, two of a kind Brought up on the wrong side of a one track mind Whenever we're together baby, We're as bad as we can be Lookin' at you baby, is the dark side of me Bridge: There's two sides to every story For every shame there's a glory And I've tried to keep a balance Between the dark and the light But something don't add up When I'm with you, how can two wrongs feel so right Feel so right Verse III: Well it's a one way conversation between you and I You ask all the right questions and need no reply On all the wrong answers baby, we always tend to agree Lookin' at you baby, is the dark side of me Lookin' at you baby, is the dark side of me |

Make me a necklace of carnelian
Buy me some ribbons for my hair I will change like a chameleon If you show me that you care Take a deep breath of this virtue Remember who your princess is Your smile will be the guardian Of all my weaknesses Chorus: Will you be the keeper of my heart Will you be what time has not forgot When I have fallen from your grace Will you be what time cannot erase Will you be the keeper baby Will you hide the darkness deep Will you be the keeper of my heart Verse II: I rest my gaze upon this ocean Buried deep inside your eyes I'm a slave to my emotions The innocence that lies And when the winds of change have broken baby Every battle, every bough Will your anger be unspoken On the twilight of this vow Chorus: Will you be the keeper of my heart Will you be what time has not forgot When I have fallen from your grace Will you be what time cannot erase Will you be the keeper baby Will you hide the darkness deep Will you be the keeper of my heart Solo Chorus: Will you be the keeper of my heart Will you be what time has not forgot When I have fallen from your grace Will you be what time cannot erase Will you be the keeper baby Will you hide the darkness deep Will you be the keeper of my heart Will you be the keeper baby Will you hide the darkness deep Will you be in my heart |

Do you really wanna know me?
Do you care what's inside? Can you ever really show me? There's no secrets I must hide If I bare my soul, can you accept it all? My darkest corner's safe behind a wall Do you really wanna know me at all? I can't accept the pain My brain screams like a runaway train Trying to keep my heart on track The embers turned to flame and I want you back But I can't trust a memory I can't trust a memory No, I can't trust me Do you really wanna know me? Do you know what makes me smile? Can you ever really promise me? This time it's not a lie I'll believe it's true When you're standin' at my door I'm always here for you And I'll open it once more Do you really wanna know me? Do you really wanna know me at all? Do you really wanna know me? Do you really wanna know me at all? Do you really wanna know me? Do you really wanna know me at all? |

It seems we're headed for a total breakdown
It keeps on getting harder to connect If this is not a war between the sexes Well then some kind of hex is in effect The ones we used to call the happy couple Have given up on romance altogether How that perfect one could come undone Looks like love's in for a run of nasty weather Lines are down, streets are redded Pipes cracked, apartments gutted The tough are gettin' goin', 'cause the goin's gettin' tough Everybody's breakin' up Verse: It seems we've come upon some kind of impasse An ending to this fractured fairy tale What once upon a time were little home sweet homes Are now just houses up for sale Streets ahush, a grim reminder No lovers laughter, no organ grinder He's out of work, the monkey run off with the cup Seems like everybody's breakin' up Seven year itch, or mid-life crisis We're comin' unhitched, goin' back to old vices The tough are gettin' goin' cause the goin's gettin' tough Everybody's breakin' up |
