If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away But something in our minds will always stay Perhaps this final act was meant To clinch a lifetime's argument That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could For all those born beneath an angry star Lest we forget how fragile we are On and on the rain will fall Like tears from a star like tears from a star On and on the rain will say How fragile we are how fragile we are On and on the rain will fall Like tears from a star like tears from a star On and on the rain will say How fragile we are how fragile we are How fragile we are how fragile we are |

A Thousand Years - Sting
A thousand years, a thousand more, A thousand times a million doors to eternity I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times An endless turning stairway climbs To a tower of souls If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars, The towers rise to numberless floors in space I could shed another million tears, a million breaths, A million names but only one truth to face A million roads, a million fears A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty I could speak a million lies, a million songs, A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time But if there was a single truth, a single light A single thought, a singular touch of grace Then following this single point , this single flame, The single haunted memory of your face I still love you I still want you A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves Like galaxies in my head I may be numberless, I may be innocent I may know many things, I may be ignorant Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands I could be cannon food, destroyed a thousand times Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes Or wear this pilgrim's cloak, or be a common thief I've kept this single faith, I have but one belief I still love you I still want you A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves Like galaxies in my head On and on the mysteries unwind themselves Eternities still unsaid 'Til you love me |

I've had a question that?s been preying on my mind for some time
I won't be wagging my tail for one good reason It has to be a crime This dog house never was the place for me Runner up and second best just ain?t my pedigree I was so happy, just the two of us Until this alpha male Turned up in the January sale He won't love you Like I love you It won't be long now before that puppy goes astray And what I like about this guy the most He'd be my favourite lamp post Devil take the hindmost Je sais que c'est d?, mais il faut se faire au changement, tu vois J'ai n?lig?le primordial pendant trop longtemps crois moi? Je suis consciente, je vois bien que tu souffres, mais ? s?att?uera Car c'est d'un homme plus d'un chien dont j'ai besoin pres de moi Cesse donc de grogner, mon choix est fait c'est comme ? N'en fais pas trop, ton attitude risque de t'?oigner de moi Faut que tu comprennes, puisque tu dis m'aimer tant que ? D?ormais nous sommes trois, lui toi et moi It's a shaggy kind of story Would I tell you if I thought it was a lie? But when the cat's away the mouse will play I wouldn't dish around here There's something fishy 'round here I howl all night and I sleep all day It takes more than biscuit, baby, to chase these blues away I've got a long enough leash I could almost hang myself It's a dogs life loving you baby But you love someone else Now he's moved by basket I'd like to put him in a casket I'll wear my best collar to his funeral Ta mauvaise foi, j'aimerais bien que ? s'arr?e Me s?arer de toi, aujourd'hui ? trotte dans ma t?e Moi non, j'en peux plus, tu n'es qu'un chien, c'est trop b?e La situation m'avait pourtant l'air d'?re des plus nettes C'est clair, que je l'aime c'est un fait, ton ?o?me m'inqui?e Apr? toutes ces soir?s pass?s seuls en t?e ?t?e Chaque chose a une fin, et c'est la fin de la f?e Pour toi, car bient? il n'y aura plus que lui et moi, lui et moi. To have found this perfect life And a perfect love so strong Well there can't be nothing worse Than a perfect love gone wrong You said I wasn't just your Christmas toy I'd always be your boy I'd be your faithful companion And I would follow you through every thick and thin Don't need nobody else And we don't need him |

I looked out across
The river today I saw a city in the fog And an old church tower Where the seagulls play Saw the sad shire horses Walking home in the sodium light Saw two priests on the ferry October geese on a cold winter's night *And all this time The river flowed Endlessly, To the sea. Two priests came round Our house tonight One young, one old, To offer prayers for the dying, To serve the final rite One to learn, one to teach Which way the cold wind blows Fussing and flapping in priestly black Like a murder of crows * Repeat If I had my way I'd take a boat from the river And I'd bury the old man I'd bury him at sea Blessed are the poor For they shall inherit the earth One is better to be poor Than a fat man in the eye of a needle As these words were spoken I swear I hear the old man laughing What good is a used up world, And how could it be worth having? * Repeat All this time The river flowed Father, if Jesus exists, Then how come he never lived here? Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Teachers told us The Romans built this place They built a wall and a temple on the edge of the Empire garrison town They lived and they died They prayed to their gods But the stone gods did not make a sound And their empire crumbled Till all that was left Were the stones the workmen found And all this time the river flowed In the falling light of a northern sun If I had my way I'd take a boat from the river Men go crazy in congregations They only get better one by one One by one One by one, by one One by one I looked out across The river today I saw a city in the fog And an old church tower Where the seagulls play Saw the sad shire horses Walking home in the sodium light Two priests on the ferry October geese on a cold winter's night Teachers told us The Romans built this place They built a wall and a temple on the edge of the Empire garrison town They lived and they died They prayed to their gods But the stone gods did not make a sound And their empire crumbled Till all that was left Were the stones the workmen found And all this time the river flowed In the falling light of a northern sun If I had my way I'd take a boat from the river Men go crazy in congregations They only get better one by one One by one One by one, by one One by one I looked out across The river today I saw a city in the fog And an old church tower Where the seagulls play Saw the sad shire horses Walking home in the sodium light Two priests on the ferry October geese on a cold winter's night |

Mercury falling
I rise from my bed, Collect my thoughts together I have to hold my head It seems that she's gone And somehow I am pinned by The Hounds of Winter Howling in the wind I walk through the day My coat around my ears I look for my companion I have to dry my tears It seems that she's gone Leaving me too soon I'm as dark as December I'm as cold as the Man in the Moon I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The Hounds of Winter They follow me down I can't make up the fire The way that she could I spend all my days In the search for dry wood Board all the windows and close the front door I can't believe she won't be here anymore I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The Hounds of Winter They follow me down A season for joy A season for sorrow Where she's gone I will surely, surely follow She brightened my day She warmed the coldest night The Hounds of Winter They got me in their sights I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The Hounds of Winter They harry me down |

A stone's throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight And through a million stars were shining My heart was lost on a distant planet That whirls around the April moon Whirling in an arc of sadness I'm lost without you I'm lost without you Though all my kingdoms turn to sand And fall into the sea I'm mad about you I'm mad about you And from the dark secluded valleys I heard the ancient songs of sadness But every step I thought of you Every footstep only you And every star a grain of sand The leavings of a dried up ocean Tell me, how much longer? How much longer? They say a city in the desert lies The vanity of an ancient king But the city lies in broken pieces Where the wind howls and the vultures sing These are the works of man This is the sum of our ambition It would make a prison of my life If you became another's wife With every prison blown to dust My enemies walk free I'm mad about you I'm mad about you And I have never in my life Felt more alone than I do now Although I claim dominions over all I see It means nothing to me There are no vitories In all our histories, without love A stone's throw from Jerusalem I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight And through a million stars were shining My heart was lost on a distant planet That whirls around the April moon Whirling in an arc of sadness I'm lost without you I'm lost without you And though you hold the keys to ruin Of everything I see With every prison blown to dust, My enemies walk free Though all my kingdoms turn to sand And fall into the sea I'm mad about you I'm mad about you |

Young teacher the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy She wants him so badly Knows what she wants to be Inside her there's longing This girl's an open page Book marking - she's so close now This girl is half his age Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Her friends are so jealous You know how bad girls get Sometimes it's not so easy To be the teacher's pet Temptation, frustration So bad it makes him cry Wet bus stop, she's waiting His car is warm and dry Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Loose talk in the classroom To hurt they try and try Strong words in the staff room The accusations fly It's no use, he sees her He starts to shake and cough Just like the old man in That book by Nabakov Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me |

If he loved you like I love you
I would walk away in shame I'd move town, I'd change my name When he watches you When he comes to buy your soul On your hand his golden rings Like he owns a bird that sings When we dance Angels will run and hide their wings The priests have said my soul's salvation Lies in the balance of the angels And underneath the wheels of passion When we dance Angels will run and hide their wings I'm still in love with you When we dance Angels will run and hide their wings I'm gonna love you more than life If you'll only be my life I'm gonna love you night and day When we dance Angels will run and hide their wings I'm gonna find a place to live Give you all I've got to give I would love you more than life If you'll only be my wife If I could break down these walls And shout my name at heaven's gate I'd take these hands And I'd destroy the dark machineries of fate The vehicles are broken Heaven's the one above Hell fire's a promise away I'd still be saying I'm still in love He won't love you Like I love you He won't care for you this way He'll mistreat you if you stay Come and live with me We'll have children of our own I would love you more than life If you'd come and be my wife When we dance Angels will run adn hide their wings I'm gonna love you more than life If you'll only be my wife I'm gonna love you night and day I'm gonna try in every way When we dance Angels will run and hide their wings I'm gonna find a place to live Give you all I've got to give I would love you more than life If you'd only be my wife |

How like the fall
To be gone in a day Just as the leaves had turned gold I was drawn to a sound That the wind carried down From an open window pane And oh, how like a song Or a sad melody To linger long after the end And the harmony rings With the promise of spring On a Brooklyn street How like the fall to be gone in a day Just as the trees had turned gold I was drawn to this sound That some fingers had found But now the winter seems to stay too long How like a song Or a sad melody To linger long after it's gone Though the window is closed And the questions it posed On a Brooklyn street How like the spring To return in a day When everything seems to be new But here's someone who's hoping The window is open On that Brooklyn street again And oh, how like a song Or a sweet melody To linger long after it's gone Let the harmony ring With the promise of spring On a Brooklyn street |

Upon the fields of barley You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky Ss we walk in fields of gold So she took her love for to gaze a while Upon the fields of barley In his arms she fell as her hair came down Among the fields og gold Will tyou stay with me, will you bemy love Among the fields of barley? We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky As we lie in fields of gold See the west wind move loke a lover so Upon the fields of barley Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth Among the fields of gold I never made promises lightly And there have been some that i've broken But i swear in the days still left We'll walk in fields of gold We'll walk in fields of gold Many years have passed since those summer days Among the fields of barley See the children run as the sun goes down Among the fields of gold You'll rememeber me when the west wind moves Upon the fieldsof barley You can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in fields of gold When we walked in fields of gold When we walked in fields of gold |

There's a moon over bourbon street tonight
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight I've no choice but to follow that call The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all I pray everyday to be strong For I know what I do must be wrong Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street It was many years ago that I became what I am I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb Now I can never show my face at noon And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans She's innocent and young from a family of means I have stood many times outside her window at night To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight How could I be this way when I pray to god above I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street |

You could say I lost my faith in science and
progress You could say I lost my belief in the holy Church You could say I lost my sense of direction You could say all of this and worse, but If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians Yhey all seemed like game show hosts to me If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do I could be lost inside their lies without a trace But every time I close my eyes I see your face I never saw no miracle of science That didn't go from a blessing to a curse I never saw no military solution That didn't always end up as something worse, but Let me say this first If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do |
