Let your fighting scars heal in the sun
of a bright windy day Let your cold blades sleep in the sand till it's rusted away Washed each night in the waves while you sleep away each memory And you wake to find yourself a new king to be Away from the dark moving into the light King of the shadows gives up on the fight He kicks of them shoes throws them away There's nobody here now except this salty blue day Out of sight Out of reach He's king of the beach Whatever I was well I'm not that now I tell you because it may help you somehow So kick of them shoes and throw them away Cause there's nobody here now except this salty blue day |

Walk a cold thin line
in the morning Hold the fear inside that greets you with the day I can't go with you now I can only watch you now As you sail away Sail away I'm going to miss you now So much more then I realised There's a heavy stone of empty where you once lay I can't go with you now I can only watch you now Watch you As you sail away Sail away I know you need your freedom Sail away Cause without it you can't survive Be on your way disappear into the distance I smile and say Sail away I can't go with you now I can only watch you now Watch you As you sail away |

I see a million torn up moments
of the rarest happiness Each one a dancing snowflake A piece of memory It's the ghost of days gone by Lay them tight across this old town In the silence of your smiling face You move to me And you are still beautiful You are still beautiful In this cold white night Still shining bright Still beautiful Regrets the cold wind that I know and it will not let me be and hopes your smiling face can still can set me free And you are still beautiful You are still beautiful In this cold white night Still shining bright Still beautiful |

Long shadows
Bright light That falls to the front From a darkness behind There is no end To this mountain top Inside these stones Only peace will we find Inside out We're all part of the stone That makes up the mountain And harbours the bones The bones of angels That showed us the way You can feel them at night While they sleep through the day The bones of angels The bones of angels Together we will be Forever we will see I see you And I see me And the bones of angels |

There's a crazy sense of duty
As he licks between his fingers Wipes the ketchup from his face and hands There's a strong determination That his teachers never witnessed Never close enough to understand He's like a bull just bred for fighting He don't deliver nothing Outside the only thing that he knows School report just says he's lazy His brother says he's crazy But take a look 'cos there he goes Through the avenues of fashion To the palaces of dreams All the way down Guitar Street To some guitars are hot-rods All along the quest for macho To others a would-be ticket out of town For Joe a six-string sten gun In the 'Panto-revolution' And Stevie's all just strictly sound He's like a bull just bred for fighting He don't deliver nothing Outside the only thing that he knows School report just says he's lazy His brother says he's crazy But anyway take a look 'cos there he goes Through the avenues of fashion To the palaces of dreams All the way down Guitar Street |

How does it feel
Now that you know What makes it work How far it can go Your innocent dream Didn't know how to play The game that was needed And now I hear it say Who do you love Who do you really love What are you thinking of At the end of the day What do you want What do you really want There's no question you want And somehow save the day And all those that don't really know See a bright sunny day But the glory that shone Like a sweet summer rain It rolls off you and dissapates Just as fast as it came Who do you love Who do you really love What are you thinking of At the end of the day What do you want What do you really want Who do you love Who do you love Who do you really love What are you thinking of At the end of the day What do you want What do you really want |

I love the sun
I love the sea I'd like to think that you were here with me But people are seasons and seasons change I'd like to think that you are still the same Sometimes you made me happy Sometimes you made me cry But the memory of a good friend never dies Between the lines of an aging face omething special that you can't replace But people are seasons and seasons change I'd like to think that you are still the same Sometimes you made me happy Sometimes you made me cry But the memory of a good friend never dies And I see you standing by the harbour wall And I see you waving from the aeroplane Two hearts together laughing in the rain |

Sandwriting
Leave your name and Let the wind And high tide Take it away Each white gold grain That made up your name Take it away Sandwriting Write your lover's monogram Upon the cool damp White gold grain say this is who I am Yes this is all you are my friend Some shapes upon the sand Of white gold grain Washed and blown away With the memory of your name Take it away Go tell the story To the wind and sea What ever became of you and me Each letter of love That had its golden day A love song Without goodbye Take it away Sandwriting |

Je veux sentir le sable
Entre mes doigts de pieds Tamatave ma petite rouquine Elle la sait Long grass dancing in the day Blue sky palm trees gently sway I come from a land down in sun Sit on the beach and watch the waves run I need the sand between my toes Tamatave my red hair girl she knows Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler Tommasina I hear you calling me Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler I feel so strange on city streets I got these big shoes on my feet I come from a land down in sun Sit on the beach and watch the waves run Tamatave je ton ton mapelay Tamatave je ton ton mapelay Tommasina I hear you calling me Tamatave je ton ton mapelay |

I was never born with the face of a
movie star I was never blessed with an easyload along the way I have taken the wrong turning So many times I can't remember But one thing I have for sure I can always smile and say God gave me an angel with a smiling face God gave me an angel this I know My churches are all empty and I'm guilty every day But god gave me an angel anyway Talk of being good and what became of me Do I hide my head in shame and turn away I have taken the wrong turning So many times I can't remember But one thing I have for sure I can always smile and say But God gave me an angel with a smiling face God gave me an angel this I know My churches are all empty and I'm guilty every day But god gave me an angel anyway |

He sits upon the empty sand
and gazes up to the endless grey The weathered face and battered hands Protest the soul that carried them so far this way The beaten skin is turning to a wrinkled smile And his eyes light up and give his soul away He said, I'm waiting for a blue sky I am waiting for a bright day I'll be there thru the wind and rain Don't care what anybody says I'm waiting for a morning bright that fills the day with all its clean bright light I'm waiting for a blue sky I'm waiting for a blue sky I'm waiting for a bright day I'll be there thru the wind and rain Don't care what anyone else says I'm waiting for a morning bright that fills the day with all its clean bright light I'm waiting for a blue sky |

Nashville sky, in the morning sun
Somewhere up north, a new life begun He was drawn to the twister, with a Memphis sound Kissed by an Angel, of a music town. Jump a train from Chicago, trace it back With the neck of a bottle, and the groove of the tracks Spend your life running, that Angels sweet sound Chasing the ghosts, of a faraway town. Oh Mississippi, running through my veins Oh Mississippi, never the same again. ⓒ Chris Rea & Jazzee Blue |
