Dinner at eight that sounds fine I suppose that means you`ll turn up round nine Bought a bunch of flowers, just for her She says the burden`s on the receiver I opened the door and you walked in (Sniff) The scent of wild jasmine The room, seemed to freeze in time My regular table will be just fine Radiant and elegant you might be But your concentration is so go-lightly Both of your eyes reflecting the moon You really think you own the room So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok Try to pick it up, reading the signs It`s turning out to be a real good time And who`d have thought that entertainment Lies in the winter of your discontent Now, sit at the table, face to face Queen takes pawn, check or checkmate! I feel your foot brush against my leg I`m not that easily led You flutter your eyes and you toss your hair I have to say that it is kind of unfair Let me tell you baby now what`s in store You win the battle, but I`ll win the war So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok This has been fun, I suppose Although my feelings are all juxtaposed But truth be told, I`m as fickle as hell But gentlemen never kiss and tell! So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok So what game shall we play today? How about the one where you don`t get your way? But even if you do That`s ok |

Paint a picture,
Clear cut and pale on a cold winters day, Shapes and cool light wander the streets like an army of strays, On a cold winters Day. Chorus: Will you let me romanticize, The beauty in our London Skies, You know the sunlight always shines, Behind the clouds of London Skies. Patient moments you chill to the bone under infinite greys, Vision hindered mist settling low like a ghostly ballet, On a cold winters Day. Chorus Bridge: Nothing is certain except everything you know can change, you worship the sun but now, can you fall for the rain... Chorus |

Her name was written on a photograph
Right next to her red sunburnt face It all had happened in that long tall grass About a mile from her old place And I can`t remember how it started And if it lasted that day in the sun We said that we were going to study hard We held our books instead of hands She held a blanket over cans of beer I can`t deny I was so full of fear It`s just another story caught up in another photograph I found And it seems like another person lived that life a great many years ago from now When I look back on my ordinary ordinary life I see so much magic though I missed it at the time When I look back on my ordinary ordinary life I see so much magic though I missed it at the time And there`s the first time that I tried that stuff I think I look a little green I remember throwing up behind a bush And I found it hard to use my feet And who`s that easily led little boy who`s really off his head? It was the same night that I kissed that girl The tall one with the auburn hair I remember laughing coz to kiss me She had to sit down on a chair She tasted like the schnapps she`d drunk and the cigarette she`d stolen from her mum And it`s just another story caught up in another photograph I found When I look back on my ordinary ordinary life I see so much magic though I missed it at the time When I look back on my ordinary ordinary life I see so much magic though I missed it at the time |

Are the stars out tonight? I don`t know if it`s cloudy or bright `cause I only have eyes for you, dear My love must be some kind of blind love I don`t see anybody but you The moon may be high But I can`t see a thing in the sky `cause I only have eyes for you. I don`t know if we`re in a garden Or on a crowded avenue You are here, so am I Maybe millions of people go by But they all disappear from view I only have eyes for you My love must be some kind of blind love I don`t see anybody but you |

We were so drunk last night
We had that stupid fight You called me a useless selfish prick So I`m in a fix right now And we`ll measure the truth somehow Love is a funny thing to me Then you stormed out and grabbed your coat While slamming shut the door A ruthless move so cold you left your keys inside the door oh Can nothing i do make you happy anymore Nothin` i say put a smile onto your face Can nothing i say bring us back together Nothing i do put a smile onto your face well ok Next day i called you back And you called me a stupid twat And then you were crying on the phone You sounded so upset you said I wasn`t the man you`d met 3 years and 7 months ago I pleaded with her take me back I`ll change my sorry ways So tell me why mysterioulsy I`m annoyed instead of shamed Can nothing i do make you happy anymore Can nothin` i say put a smile onto your face Nothing i say bring us back together Nothing i say put a smile onto your face Mmmmmm Yeahhh I`m poundering it all after that call I think it is clear I am here you`re from another stratosphere Oh now all the things she said they went around my head And come out my ear And not before long This stubborn soul thinks his done no wrong As when the questions flut around my head like butterflies My head spins at reflecting on another loves demise ohh Can nothing i do make you happy anymore Nothin` i say put a smile onto your face Can nothing i say bring us back together Nothing i say put a smile onto your face ohhh |

I missed the opportunity To get you babe to stay with me Never thought I'd regret The excuses that I've made Like a song it will fade If there's music in the night And it's really really right It's the only thing I need It intoxicates your mind All your troubles left behind So come on and take my lead It's not just me who feels it Music plays a mind trick Watch me forget about missing you So i put my feelings out to dry Love, one day again I'll have to try Falling out making up It seems such a silly game Why do i never gain? If there's music in the night And it's really, really right It's the only thing I need It intoxicates your mind All your troubles left behind So come on and take my lead It's not just me who feels it Music plays a mind trick Watch me forget about missing you na na na- na na na- na na na na naIf there's music in the night And it's really, really right It's the only thing I need It intoxicates your mind All your troubles left behind So come on and take my lead It's not just me who feels it Music plays a mind trick Watch me forget about missing you |

There's maybe a way I can tell you
'Cos with everyday things continue To get more compromised, So who will fantasise A new generation politicised When things are done in our own name Are we as much to blame? Now it's become clear to me, But only lately And the ground is removed underneath Shout it from the brink, You're louder than you think [Chorus:] 21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion, So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now, Could it be the greatest weapon? Could it be the greatest weapon? Your weapon Nothing is certain except a memory And that's soon washed away by a low sea Now sit yourself down my one And see what you become, Ignoring a smouldering gun The white dove's flown D'ya think we're on our own? [Chorus:] 21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion. So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now, Could it be the greatest weapon? 21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion. So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now, Could it be the greatest weapon? Could it be the greatest weapon? Your weapon |

said i many times, love is illusion,
a feeling result of confusion with knowing smile and blase sigh, a cymical so and so, am i i feel so sure, so positive, so utterly unchangeably certain though i never was aware of loving you 'til i suddenly realised there was love in you and oh... chorus: in this world of ordinary people... extraordinary people, i'm glad there is you in this world of overrated pleasures and underrated treasures, i'm glad there is you. i live to love, i love to live with you beside me this role, so new i'll muddle through with you if you'll guide me through. in this world where many play at love and hardly any stay in love, i'm glad there is you more than ever, i'm glad there is you said i many times, love is illusion... |

I know it's been a while since I have talked to you
But maybe you're the one who makes the winds blow We're looking at the stars without explanation We contemplate as kings and simple men on trial Our little world's fragile Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop Maybe it's not just down to you Oh God can we win back what we have lost So who's the last resort... Oh God Tumbling towards unclear destinations Do they wash away the blame, The wind and the searing rains As our powers interchange Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop Maybe it's not just down to you Oh God can we win back what we have lost So who's the last resort... oh God [Sax intro] Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop Maybe it's not just down to you Oh God can we win back what we have lost So who's the last resort |

Every day it comes to this Catch the things you might have missed You say, get back to yesterday I ain't ever going back Back to the place that I can't stand But I miss the way you lie I'm always misunderstood Pulled apart and ripped in two But I miss the way you lie Catch the sun, before it's gone Here it comes, up in smoke and gone Catch the sun, it never comes Cry in the sand, lost in the fire I never really understood Why I didn't feel so good But I miss the way you lie I've always been up and down Never wanted to hit the ground But I miss the way you lie Catch the sun, before it's gone Here it comes, up in smoke and gone Catch the sun, it never comes Cry in the sand, lost in the fire |

Our day will come
And we'll have everything. We'll share the joy Falling in love can bring. No one can tell me That I'm too young to know Cause I love you so And you love me, love me. Our day will come If we just wait a while. No tears for us Think love and wear a smile. And our dreams are meant to be Because we'll always stay In love this way Our day will come. (Piano Solo) Our day will come If we just wait a while. And no tears for us Think love and wear a smile. And our dreams are meant to be Because we'll always stay In love this way. Our day, our day, oh daaaaay, will come. |

Lately, i've let myself go
I've been screening the calls From my friends to my foes Although i've been weak Far for so very long I gotta get myself I gotta get myself I gotta get myself Back to the ground Sultry siren messed with my song I'm gonna send her back To where she belongs I keep my enemies Much, much, much too close I gotta get myself I gotta get myself I gotta get myself Back to the ground When you're attracted to the danger And tasting every flavour Then bring it on and bleed yourself dry Reality is twisted Your mind's getting shoplifted Is there underneath an innocent guy? So clearly, i've let myself go So does admission take my sins to a new low? And when you're way down there You'll find all those old friends you used to know And they're gonna help ya Get yourself back to the ground |
