I've watched you from a distance
I've passed you on the street I'm obsessed with you I don't know what to do To make you pay attention And fall in love with me I'm obsessed with you I don't know what to do Guess there's no place to hide When you're screaming inside There's no place to hide When you're screaming inside I've called you from the corner You don't pick up the phone I'm depressed by you I don't know what to do To make you understand me To hear you speak my name I'm impressed with you I could impress you too Guess there's no place to hide When you're screaming inside There's no place to hide When you're screaming inside I've explained it in my letters I'm miserable as sin I'm obsessed with you What am I gonna do? Guess there's no place to hide When you're screaming inside There's no place to hide When you're screaming inside |

Miss me, miss me, miss me, miss me
All those lies All those lies you used to tell me Do you think that I care? Do I look in despair? Were you going to say What you were doing today? 'Cause if you think that I mind Then you're going to find I have no feelings for you So what are you gonna do? All those lies All those lies you used to tell me You thought you were smart That you got a hold of my heart But you got it oh so wrong I've been around far too long And did you really believe That I had no idea? You told me all these lies That I knew all along |

When the storm clouds are riding through a winter sky
Sail away, sail away When the lovelight is fading in your sweetheart's eye Sail away, sail away When you feel your song Is orchestrated wrong Why should you prolong your stay? When the wind and the weather blow your dreams sky high Sail away, sail away, sail away When your life seems to difficult to rise above Sail away, sail away When your heart feels as dreary as a worn-out glove Sail away, sail away But when soon or late You recognise your fate That will be your great, great day On the wings of the morning with your own true love Sail away, sail away, sail away |

What a performance tonight Should I react or turn off the light? Looks like you're picking a fight in a blurring of wrong and right But how your mood changes You're a devil, now an angel Suddenly subtle and solemn and silent as a monk You only tell me you love me when you're drunk It's better than nothing, I suppose some doors have opened, others closed but I couldn't see you exposed to the horrors behind some of those Somebody said: listen don't you know what you're missing? You should be kissing him instead of dissing him like a punk But you only tell me you love me when you're drunk You only tell me you love me when you're drunk All of my friends keep asking me Why, oh, why do you not say goodbye? If you don't even try you'll be sunk 'Cause you only tell me you love me when you're drunk What's the meaning when you speak with so much feeling? Is it over when you're sober? is it junk? You only tell me you love me when you're drunk You only tell me you love me when you're drunk |

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could Little things I should said and done I never took the time You were always on my mind You were always on my mind Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely lonely times And I guess I never told you I'm so happy that you're mine If I make you feel second best I'm so sorry I was blind You were always on my mind You were always on my mind Tell me tell me that your sweet love hasn't died Give me one more chance To keep you satisfied satisfied Little things I should said and done I never took the time You were always on my mind You are always on my mind Tell me tell me that your sweet love hasn't died Give me one more chance To keep you satisfied You were always on my mind You are always on my mind You were always on my mind You are always on my mind You were always on my mind You are always on my mind Maybe I didn't treat you Quite as good as I should Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely lonely times I guess I never told you I'm so happy that you're mine |

I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties "Dress in white" one said, with quotations From someone's wife, a famous writer In the nineteen-twenties When you're young you find inspiration In anyone who's ever gone And opened up a closing door She said: "We were never feeling bored 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: 'Make amends' And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end" When I went I left from the station With a haversack and some trepidation Someone said: "If you're not careful You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for In the nineteen-seventies" But I sat back and looking forward My shoes were high and I had scored I'd bolted through a closing door I would never find myself feeling bored 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends" And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end We were always hoping that, looking back You could always rely on a friend Now I sit with different faces In rented rooms and foreign places All the people I was kissing Some are here and some are missing In the nineteen-nineties I never dreamt that I would get to be The creature that I always meant to be But I thought in spite of dreams You'd be sitting somewhere here with me 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends" And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end We were always hoping that, looking back You could always rely on a friend And we were never being boring We were never being bored 'Cause we were never being boring We were never being bored |
