Sun rays come down as seen
when they hit the ground,
Children spinning around till
they fall down down down.
I wait for you
it's been two hours now,
You're still somewhere in town,
Your dinners getting cold.
I rest my case you are always this late,
And you know how much I hate waiting around 'round 'round,
Bitter heart, bitter heart tries to keep it all inside,
Bitter heart, bitter heart shadows will help you try to hide,
Bitter heart, my bitter heart is gettin' just a little fragile,
Bitter heart, bitter heart of mine.
And then you come
and tell me the same reason as you did yesterday,
So tell me whats her name.
Doo doo da dum, doo doo da dum, doo doo doo doo doo doo da da dum dum, da da da da dum, da da da da dum, da da da da dum.
Bitter heart, bitter heart tries to keep it all inside
Bitter heart, bitter heart shadows will help you try to hide,
Bitter heart, my bitter heart is just getting a little fragile,
Bitter heart, bitter heart of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine.

My baby he don't act like himself no more
He lost that smile I use to adore
He spend his nights slapping his veins
He lost that glow he used to have on his face

Empty, burned bottle on the carpet
My baby lying beside it
Tin foil and melted sugar everywhere

He said his provider was his pharmacist friend Ben
I swear I'm gonna kill him because
I swear I'm gonna kill him because because because

The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me

My baby used to repeat the news
And now he talks about dragons on the wall
Used to love German expressionism films
Now he drinks until he falls

I was confused, didn't know what to do
So I called his momma, had her come on over
She got him off the ground, started slapping him around
And now she cried, she said she said she said

The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me

I am a honey bee,
Shunned off from the colony
and they won't let me in

So I left the hive,
They took away all my stripes
and broke off both my wings

So I'll find another tree
and make the wind my friend
I'll just sing with the birds
They'll tell me secrets of the world

But my other honey bee
Stuck where he doesn't wanna be
Oh my darling, honey bee
I'll come save you
Even if it means I'd have to face the queen

~ Pa da bum ba dam bum ba da bum pum bum ~

So I'll come prepared,
My new friends said they would help me
get my loved one back

They say it isn't right,
The bees have control of your mind,
that I choose not to believe that

So we'll meet in the darkness of the night,
and I promised I will be there on time
We'll be guided by my new friends, the butterflies,
bring us back to our own little hive

Oh my other honey bee,
No longer stuck where he doesn't wanna be
Oh my darling, honey bee,
I have saved you
And now that you're with me,

we can make our own honey
~ Oh Pa da bum ba dam bum ba da bum pum bum ~

You were sitting at the coffee table
where you`re reading Kierkegaard
Minutes later, you proceeded to say
something that almost broke my heart

You said, "Darling, I am tired of

livin my routined life
There`s so much in the world that i`d like
to soak up with my eyes."
Well, baby i never did stop

you from going out to explore
We can do it all together from

the colds of the poles
to the tropics of Borneo

Ba da da ba da ba

Let`s pack our bags

and lie on the easy stream
feel the water on our backs
where we can carry on dreamin
where we can finally
be where we`d like to be
Darlin, just you and me

Just you and me


So Darlin, what do you say?
Does that sound like a plan to you?
We can build our own little world
where no one else can come through
We can live in huts made out of grass
we can greet father time as he walks pass
we can press our feet into the dirt
a little mud, no, it wouldn`t hurt

Ba da da ba da ba


Let`s pack our bags
and lie on the easy stream
feel the water on our backs
where we can carry on dreamin
where we can finally
be where we`d like to be
Darlin, just you and me

Just you and me

Is this the end?
Then why does it feel
We’d only just begun
I thought we were done

I think I’ll hang on
If you still want me
But if you don’t
I guess I’ll move on

And if you need me
Close your eyes and dream
I’ll give you back your key
But will you be happy?
Will you be happy?

Said we’ll leave it alone
But I wont be here long
And when I’m gone
I guess then we’ll know

Flowers in the ground they wilt way
Sun in the sky it fades away
Make the funniest shapes from the cloud so grey
the breeze in the trees they blow my way

I was told my soul was old
then can’t I understand it all
if my soul was really old
I wonder if i could change this world

Life has given my obstacles
still I bite my tongue say it’s wonderful
I’m just glad I’m still around
I’m even more glad when things are down

But you, you came to break me
oh you, you came to save me

Life’s too short for what if’s and plans
so let the day take you by the hand
get your filofax we’ll go and burn them
but I’m too old for ‘damn the man’

I make a wish on a star at night
the brightest star that’s in the sky
Only to have realized
that it was just a satellite

But you, you came to calm me
oh you, you came to cool me

Semalam I call you, you tak answer.
You kata you keluar pergi dinner.
You kata you keluar dengan kawan you.
But when I called Tommy he said it wasn't true.

So I drove my car pergi Damansara.
Tommy kata maybe you tengok bola.
Tapi bila I sampai you, you tak ada.
Lagilah I jadi gila.

So I called and called sampai you answer.
You kata sorry sayang tadi tak dengar.
My phone was on silent, I was at the gym.
Tapi latar belakang suara perempuan lain.

Sudahlah sayang, I don't believe you.
I've always known your words were never true.
Why am I with you, I pun tak tahu.
No wonderlah my friends pun tak suka you.

So I guess that's the end of our story.
Akhir kata she accepted his apology.
Tapi last last kita dapat tahu she was cheating too.
With her ex boyfriend's best friend - Tommy.

No, I really don't think so
That you think I'd be incapable of being on my own
No, I really don't think so
That I would for a second let you back in through my door

I have spent many a nights
Even when you are by my side
I shed tears I couldn't dry
I shed tears I couldn't dry

But I should thank you for
Taking my blindfold off now
I ain't jaded no more, no more
And I take pride in being the one that said goodbye
That could only mean I am me, once more

You would turn your head the other way
So you won't have to listen to what I have to say
You assume that I needed you
But you didn't realize that I needed no one but myself
I needed no one but myself

But I should thank you for
Taking my blindfold off now
I ain't jaded no more, no more
And I take pride in being the one that said goodbye
That could only mean I am me, once more

That could only mean I am me, once more
That could only mean I am me, once more

You have never been in love,
Until you’ve seen the stars,
reflect in the resevoirs

And you have never been in love,
Until you’ve seen the dawn rise,
behind the home for the blind

We are the pretty petty thieves,
And you’re standing on our street..

...where Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die. Oh my.
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die. Oh my.

You have never been in love,
Until you’ve seen the sunlight thrown
over smashed human bones

We are the pretty petty thieves,
And you’re standing on our street..

...where Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die. Such a silly boy.
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and a bullet in his gullet
and the first lost lad to go under the sod.


And he stole from the rich and the poor
and the not-very-rich and the very poor
and he stole all hearts away
he stole all hearts away
he stole all hearts away
he stole all hearts away

Down to my last stick of cigarettes
Down to the last thought in my head

You saw me
Packing my bags
You asked me if I was coming back
And I told you that I wasn't sure

And I'm five steps away from out the door

Darling it ain't easy
For me to say goodbye
I have found myself another guy

You look confused
And I don't blame you
But you're never around
Enough for me to love you
For me to love you

Darling don't deserve me
You don't deserve my love
I had planned to give but you shoved it off

Don't think I don't know about the hair on the pillow
And it seems what we had was just a show
Was it all, just a show?

Darling it ain't easy
For us to say goodbye
But I just hope that we have better lives

Darling it ain't easy
For us to say goodbye
But I just hope that we have better lives

Darling it ain't easy
For us to say goodbye
But I just hope that we have better lives

Broken dreams, broken dreams
hoping someday you’ll see me
Sky is grey, sky is grey
but I dancing in the rain
Live this way, live this way
will you remember my name?
Live a lie, live a lie
why don’t you ask yourself why…

Don’t you open your eyes?

Only the moon, only the moon
only the moon will hear my plea
Only the creatures of the night
will harmonize with me
Missed you so, missed you so
and I wondered if you know
The wind has blown me in the corner
and it’s hard to let go

That’s the story…
that’s the story of you and me

Bring me a lily and one loaf of bread
take me home now
I can’t forget any words that you’ve said
but they’re gone now
Trying my best to keep up with your pace
but you’re too fast
Trying my best to get off of this fence
for I won’t last

Maybe we can try to be better this time
Maybe we can try to be better this time

I’m just a speckle of dust
in this gigantic world now
I’m going only where the air will take me
bring me down now

And my smiles turn to tears
and I’m facing my fears
can’t you see me
trying my best to reach out for your hand
you won’t let me in
and I’ve done what I can
you keep changing your plans
do you need me

Maybe we can try to be better this time
Maybe we can try to be better this time

so let me in
let me in
let me in
let me in
let me….
