Theres a light overhead overhead In the sky overhead overhead And Im with you now in body and music and mind And were silent and still Everythings so out of control tonight In a plane thats flying fast At a speed that makes me cry Have you left me now To trouble that wont let me lie Im awake all the time You know where I stand Holding my plastic gun So turn and run You cold killers of innocence Against us theres no defence Your flash and your wickedness You cant break our love Tie my hands behind my back Put a gag on top of my mouth But I wont give you up Till silverwares covered in dust And my shoes fall apart And the tumbleweed runs Over my desert heart So turn and run You cold killers of innocence Against us theres no defence Your flash and your wickedness Will surely bring you down again Somehow we must stay afloat Wont give in to the undertow Somethings you will never know You cant break our love You can pull us down But you cant break our love |

Twice too late to stay on top of it all
All for one, one for all. Push me, pull me, way too far One way or another someone's gotta take The fall, you better look at yourself When you put your foot down baby You stomped down on me You made your last point baby It's all I can take Take a walk - Take a long and lonely walk You better think about it Come back to a whole new start Cause-I wash my hands Of you and your plans to take over Take a walk A lover's crime and punishment Is do this, do that and put your eyes Back in your head Let's play house instead You complain about everything You're not happy 'til the chain's Wrapped 'round my leg It's about time for a change When you put your foot down baby You stomped down on me Too much is enough now, baby It's all I can take, so! |

Beside me now are strangers to my eyes
They might be getting crazy, might be wise Were stranded either way in such a lonely place I'm looking out for you among the flies That wait in line for days on end And nights so cold and always so intense I try to reach the top most every day In hope I turn my face up to the sky The cover hangs so low, I see no sign of life Nothing springs to mind Among the flies that wait in line For days on end and nights so cold, always so intense Here we are There's a smile between us and it's going on You and me have always gotten through Anyone can tell you that it's true You feel it every time, you drive away from home The headlights hypnotize and they take you off towards the sea Into the night, you run away with thoughts you cannot hide Vacant eyes can't describe my hunger For your billowing arms Mother, I can't help thinking of you Take this dull ache away |

Remember my loose tongue
Forget what I just said I'd crawl over broken glass If we could start again Before our plans were made When the world was young The house is falling down Because of my loose tongue Shouldn't say so much Shouldn't talk so loud No sooner on your lips Than it's all over town In all our given days How many gone to waste A good man has been hung Because of my loose tongue Your skin is changing its hue Your guard is coming down fast Looks like someone I knew Uncovered happiness at last All the wagging tongues Too much information In the future now Under massive doubt The papers on the street Get trampled under feet And they settled for a princely sum Goodwill is coming down And when it rains Your well is full |

Take me home tonight
where there's music and there's people who are young and alive driving in your car I never never want to go home because I haven't got one anymore Take me home tonight because I want to see people and I want to see life driving in your car oh please don't drop me home because it's not my home, it's their home and I'm welcome no more And if a double-decker bus crashes in to us to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die and if a ten ton truck kills the both of us to die by your side well the pleasure, the privilege is mine Take me home tonight take me anywhere, I don't care I don't care, I don't care and in the darkened underpass I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last but then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask Take me home tonight oh take me anywhere, I don't care I don't care, I don't care driving in your car I never never want to go home because I haven't got one no, I haven't got one And if a double-decker bus crashes in to us to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die and if a ten ton truck kills the both of us to die by your side well the pleasure, the privilege is mine There is a light that never goes out There is a light that never goes out There is a light that never goes out There is a light that never goes out |

Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways, Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin! He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken, To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin! His head smashed in and his heart cut out And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged And his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off And his pen Brave Sir Robin ran away, Bravely ran away, away. When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about And gallantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, He beat a very brave retreat, Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin. He is packing it in and packing it up And sneaking away and buggering up And chickening out and pissing off home, Yes, bravely he is throwing in the sponge. |

I might be old but I'm someone new she said I'm so sore that I could cry always in the night lay your tired arms she will have her way somehow I will still believe her it's the life I've been frightened of she said deathly silence and especially the dark feels like I am heavy and my spirit has died she will have her way somehow I will still believe her she will have her way one day I will come back still no end in sight though I travel far and wide a dying man is doing time thinker, soldier terrified and she will have her way somehow I will still believe her she will have her way one day I will come back |

Walking 'round the room singing
Stormy Weather At fifty seven Mt. Pleasant St. Now it's the same room but everything's different You can fight the sleep but not the dream Things ain't cooking in my kitchen Strange affliction wash over me Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire Couldn't conquer the blue sky There's a small boat made of china Going nowhere on the mantelpiece Do I lie like a lounge room lizard Or do I sing like a bird released [Chorus:] Everywhere you go you always take the weather with you (Repeat) ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By TIM FINN, NEIL FINN <i>Lyrics © CHRYSALIS SONGS O/B/O ROUNDHEAD MUSIC</i> |

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost But you'll never see the end of the road While you're travelling with me Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us We know they won't win Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof In the paper today tales of war and of waste But you turn right over to the T.V. page Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us We know they won't win Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart Only the shadows ahead barely clearing the roof Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us Don't ever let them win (Words and Music by Neil Finn Originally performed by Crowded House) |
