There he stood and there we left
Outside the flashing neon sign With the smell of cheap cigars And the hope of sweet perfume And his heart it was reeling With the thrill of it all All to do and only hours He said all this is all yours You can have it all You can take it all away From where we left off Living it all Your way If you'll stand in my shoes If you'll do what I do On a wages day On a wages day And the cap from Disneyland That his cousin she brought back Stays open in his hand From one week to another And this long narrow land Is full of possibility All to do and only hours He said all this is all yours You can have it all You can take it all away From where we left off Living it all Your way If you'll stand in my shoes If you'll do what I do On a wages day On a wages day And you can have it all You can take it all away From where we left off Living it all Your way If you'll stand in my shoes If you'll do what I do On a wages day On a wages day On a wages day On a wages day On a wages day On a wages day If you'll do what I do On a wages day |

Send me back all the thing she ever wrote
Tell me secrets of her days when she was young Show me nights when she laughed So innocent I'll be happy Waiting till they come Love the people that she smiled upon Walk with me in streets Where she once stood Say if it could be that we once passed like strangers Long before the love we ever new 'Cause I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again One day I can see us walking Arm and arm in sheltered Kelvin way Talking and tripping and teasing And heading for the best part of the day When your head Falls softly on my pillow No fear will make you cry or turn you grey And we will wake So early in the morning Knowing you'll never Never Never go away 'Cause I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again Until you Rest me in your swaying arms again In your arms In your swaying arms Your swaying arms Hold me Bless me now Hold me Hold me now Hold me hold me hole me In your arms Your swaying arms Your swaying arms Hold me |

Alan doesn't understand her
He only thinks in numbers He only drinks in restaurants Where the girls are fully covered And he can't trust his yearnings And he doesn't like pretending His tempers stretched so much by work His heart needs gentle rending He |

What do you get when you fall in love,
A girl with a pin to burst your bubble, That's what you get for all your trouble, I'll never fall in love again, I'll never fall in love again. What do you get when you kiss a girl? You get enough germs to catch pneumonia, After you do, she'll never phone ya' I'll never fall in love again, I'll never fall in love again. Don't tell me what it's all about, 'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out, Out of those chains, those chains that bind you, That is why I'm here to remind you, What do you get when you fall in love, You only get lies and pain and sorrow, So for at least until tomorrow, I'll never fall in love again, I'll never fall in love again. What do you get when you give your heart, You get it all broken up and battered, That's what you get, a heart that's shattered, I'll never fall in love again, I'll never fall in love again. |

You've got a lot of
Tings to say about the Big world and the High skies so you Walk a little in a Long mile to be Sure your eyes can see the Right sights I see a Pale girl in a Blue room with a Pink dress and a Wide smile I see a Pale girl in a Blue room with a Pink dress and a Wide smile You've got a little Way to go before you Find the knowledge that you're Searching for so you'll Turn the big world Upside down To find the things that you Never wanted I see a Pale girl in a Blue room with a Pink dress and a Wide smile I need a Pink smile on a Dark night from the Right girl to be Sure it's right You've got three million things to get mad about Another hundred things to get glad about Junk food The whole world over's good as standing round So baby twist and shout baby Find out baby Find out baby Find out baby So it's April and the Tings you say don't Seem as certain as on Hogmanay when we Kissed at midnight and a Wee wee Bells had Gave me courage for my My heart to tell I see a Pale girl in a Blue room with a Pink dress and a Wide smile I need a Pink smile on a Dark night from the Right girl to be Sure it's right I see a Pale girl in a Blue room with a Pink dress and a Wide smile I need a Pink smile on a Dark night from the Right girl to be Sure it's right You need the right girl Hmmm You need the right girl Come on come on come on come baby You need the right girl I'm working on a You need the right girl Twist and shout Come on come on baby |

I wouldn't want to be you
Mostly not even near you When you're gone they will curse you And raise the tide against you I no longer care now For what you said was fair now I just don't go there now I just don't go Maybe there's a way not to make it hurt To cover up the words like you covered up the dirt Ever since you left It just gets worse Living out in your town Now let's say it like it is I just don't know where to begin It's a different way of living It's so strange to what we've been First we speak for ourselves now And people know who we are now And they wake up and they live now Yes they wake up and they live Maybe there's a way not to let it hurt Tell it out in pictures And songs and words Do what we should not To make it worse Living out in your town Maybe there's a way not to let it hurt Tell it out in pictures And songs and words Do what we should not To make it worse Living out in your town Living out in your town Living out in your town Living out in your town |

Way out there in the wilderness
Of love and pain Under the gentle arches we rode The silver streets Couldn't see a difference between gold or Wooden cross Could never see where we're falling Came in to love Then hounded by love Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up Chased inside the walls you tried to breach Sent crashing to your knees Only tender love Understood the need you need with Understood the time it took To take you where nothing ever was Never was there once nothing And everything once was Not dead but still and ready to be born anew Looking back now it all Seems so clear Like staring so long unseeing for someone to light inside a Darkened room Then try your tender love Push you back till there's nowhere left Nowhere to feel nothing anymore Nothing that will comfort you more More than tender love Understands the need you need with Understand the time it takes to get home and have a love again More than tender love Understands the need you need with Understand the time it takes To get home and have a love Then try your tender love Push it till there's nothing left Nowhere to feel nothing anymore Nothing that will comfort you more Then hounded by love Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up Chased inside the walls you tried to breach Sent crashing to your knees Then only tender love Understood the need you need with Understood the time it took To take you where nothing ever was |

All my worries
All my care Is held in check For you not there Evening comes And darkness falls We sit round And curtain out The black night There is a time Away From here Seasons pass So quickly come And steal the days Your work has done They leave the fields So bare and grey I long to hold You there and say It won't change There is a time Away From here There is a time Away From here Will we be lovers Or will we still be Will we be lovers Or will we still be Will we be lovers Or will we still be Still be still be |

You sigh and you walk
You talk You care about nothing Sometimes you're feelin' That life has treated you wrong I've got a feeling You know what the score is Baby But it's hard when you're sitting here Surrounded by friends I've got a love That I'll cling |

By the light of the waning moon
Under a blueblack sky They talked the slow way home Of years passed closely by They caught only a casual look From strangers with things to do Only a loveless heart Could feel anything less than sure That they're still in the mood Still in the mood After the time has passed They were still in the mood You'd take the chimes of midnight To be the drum of your heart's desire And you'd change all you're golden rings For one time on the wheel of fire So take off your shabby coat Let all the leaves fall down Leave this stuff till morning And then come gently round To be still in the mood Still in the mood When the sun has come up We'll be still in the mood We're still in the mood Still in the mood After the time has passed We are still in the mood |
