there is a child sleeping near his twin
the pictures go wild in a rush of wind that dark angel he is shuffling in watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled the love you lost with her skin so fair is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair her green eyes bloom goodbyes with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another dream brother with your tears scattered round the world. don't be like the one who made me so old don't belie the one who left behind his name 'cause they're waiting for you like i waited for mine and nobody ever came i feel afraid and i call your name i love your voice and your dance insane i hear your words and i know your pain your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another your eyes to the ground and the world spinning round forever asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over |

The ghost calls to visit
With my keys in his pocket Kisses in my mouth with his Eyes hanging out of his sockets My memories crumble Under still resistance I was torn out like pages From the book of existence I woke up in a strange place My mind a blur and some blood on my chin I made a call for a blackened cab Some destination was moving on in I remember the words that you told me How they come down so hard, so plain Fate is going to find your love in a glass of champagne I lied to my host I told him I knew how far I could go Then I emptied my guts out On his brand new stereo Well he paid me to go upstairs And spend a night with his friend I never want to see my face in the mirror again I woke up in a strange place Music so loud that I spit up my beer I met a ride in that blackened cab Some destination was all that he had Easy now, this car is speeding up For my last chance, crashing to freedom Fate is going to find your love in a glass of champagne Sweat pours down You're in the back seat sleeping And she waits by the window On an empty bed, weeping The ghost guns the motor To the land that he promised me I guess this is the time when your Best intentions become accidents This is my story for the dislocated Who want to love but who turn to be hated Because the lies of the spirit possessed you Because the eyes of your lover resist you Listen now, you keep your aim steady As your temple turns to kiss the pistol Fate is going to find your love in a glass of champagne Fate is going to find your love, In a glass of champagne |

this is our last goodbye
i hate to feel the love between us die but it's over just hear this and then i'll go you gave me more to live for more than you'll ever know this is our last embrace must i dream and always see your face why can't we overcome this wall well, maybe it's just because i didn't know you at all kiss me, please kiss me but kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation you know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time i'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye did you say "no, this can't happen to me," and did you rush to the phone to call was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying maybe you didn't know him at all you didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know well, the bells out in the church tower chime burning clues into this heart of mine thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories offer signs that it's over... it's over |

there's the moon asking to stay
long enough for the clouds to fly me away well it's my time coming, i'm not afraid to die my fading voice sings of love, but she cries to the clicking of time oh, time wait in the fire... and she weeps on my arm walking to the bright lights in sorrow oh drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow oh my love and the rain is falling and i believe my time has come it reminds me of the pain i might leave leave behind wait in the fire... and i feel them drown my name so easy to know and forget with this kiss i'm not afraid to go but it goes so slow |

(I.Gershwin/H.Arlen)
Originally performed by Judy Garland. Jeff performed it live at Botanique, Brussels, on February 26 1995 and at Great American Music Hall, San Francisco, on May 4 1995. The night is bitter The stars have lost their glitter The winds grow colder And suddenly you're older And all because of the man that got away. No more his eager call The writing's on the wall The dreams you dreamed have all gone astray. The man that won you Has gone off and undone you. That great beginning Has seen the final inning. Don't know what happened. It's all a crazy game! No more that all time thrill For you've been through the mill And never a new love will be the same. Good riddance, goodbye! Every trick of his you're on to But fools will be fools And where's he gone to? The road gets rougher It's lonelier and tougher. With hope you burn up Tomorrow he may turn up There's just no let up the live-long night and day. Ever since this world began There is nothing sadder than A one-man woman looking for The man that got away... The man that got away. |

i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord but you don't really care for music, do you well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth the minor fall and the major lift the baffled king composing hallelujah hallelujah... well your faith was strong but you needed proof you saw her bathing on the roof her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you she tied you to her kitchen chair she broke your throne and she cut your hair and from your lips she drew the hallelujah hallelujah... baby i've been here before i've seen this room and i've walked this floor i used to live alone before i knew you i've seen your flag on the marble arch but love is not a victory march it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah hallelujah... well there was a time when you let me know what's really going on below but now you never show that to me do you but remember when i moved in you and the holy dove was moving too and every breath we drew was hallelujah well, maybe there's a god above but all i've ever learned from love was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you it's not a cry that you hear at night it's not somebody who's seen the light it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah hallelujah... |
