The tree gives me shade
The shade turns to shadow He turns to speak The apple tree man Lives in a secret garden And I held the key He may be alone with himself Living in his mind He may be in love with himself But what will he do when he finds He left someone behind Maybe he let me down Down Lullaby baby to sleep And charm away Sleep turns to dream The apple tree man See him become the sandman See the cradle fall (I watch it fall) He may be alone with himself Living in his mind He may be in love with himself But what will he do when he finds He left someone behind Maybe he let me down Down He may be alone with himself Living in his mind He may be in love with himself But what will he do when he finds He left someone behind Maybe he let me down Down, down, down |

On our own trip
On our emerald ship we sail away The ocean holds a thousand tales untold With this love It's easy come and easy go Just like the way we were Before the fall I don't see the reason why Every angel must fly I'm betrayed by the tear in my eye In my eye... Hey angel Don't be afraid to earth your heart When I see love descending like a dove Confusion... the song you hear the blackbird sing You fly to the sun And you're going to burn your wings I don't see the reason why Every angel must fly I'm betrayed by the tear in my eye In my eye... Well, I know every angel must fly You're flying too high You're flying too high Just see the reason why The angel must fly No more tears in my eye We can live in the sky High, high, high, high |

Where have the flowers gone sun-children
Your shirts are loud and your hair is long Now do you ever think we'll make it Something more than a uniform And we're almost there We learn to love and we learn to give And we earn the flowers in our hair Where has the vision gone sun-children Colours glow but your eyes are closed I swear I still believe we'll make it In your eyes I see your soul And we're almost there We learn to love and we learn to give And we earn the flowers in our hair my friend So take my hand One day is always too far away I wish we had the hearts of children Their eyes are wide and their love is pure But we only dare to say 'please love me' At the seventh glass of wine... |

It is night-time and their fires burn All that matters here is song and dance It is my time and thier hearts, they burn In a circle, in a ring Gypsy dance, gypsy sing Gypsy dance to a tambourine In fields of green Promises of fate and destiny Old woman...I don't want to know Anything tomorrow brings will be When this hour is yesterday's ghost In a circle, in a ring Gypsy dance, gypsy sing Gypsy dance to a tambourine In fields of green In a circle, in a ring Gypsy dance, gypsy sing Gypsy dance to a tambourine In fields of green In a circle, in a ring Gypsy dance, gypsy sing Gypsy dance to a tambourine In fields of green |

They're melting with the snow Precious wishes Heavenwards they go Secrets keep, no-one need ever know When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, You're just a breath away Painted words are whispered It's no prayer Whispering words Are drifting like the snow When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, You're just a breath away Away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away Away When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, You're just a breath away In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, You're just a breath away |

Girl in a uniform
Grey and white and crisp, clean How can I live in your world Of strawberry flowers And colourful hours Lovingly I dust all the dust on your shelf Kiss the mirror clean Where you glance at yourself I know what to do Maybe a letter I'll send From underground and wait to be found out Lovingly I press out the ink on the page Carefully I'd scent it In stock from the meadow It is dark... in the meadow It is dark... in the meadow It is dark... in the meadow I spill it all as I pour Red wine will stain... remember There's none for the little girl blue Who lives down the stairs And loves like the stars But I must not forget That I am what I am And you must not forget That you are who you are It is dark... in the meadow It is dark... in the meadow It is dark... in the meadow It is dark... |

Lamplight to light my despair She has the stars in her eyes The mind in her hair, my sanctuary Silent and silver... Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine Lady Moonlight Shine Should I cry, should I weep My secrets she'll keep them in her temple 'Neath her veil She is Isis she is Guinevere Sister to the sea Queen of the night, with the answer And my heart disbelieves The myth surrounding Eve She couldn't know what she was doing Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine Lady Moonlight Shine Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine bright Lady Moonlight Shine Lady Moonlight Shine |

Emily lived in this town
Seems it was getting her down Filled up a suitcase with clothes Where she went no-one knows She didn't wait to explain She had to rush for her 'plane She's seen the earth from the sky And she waved it bye-bye Bye-bye love... Oh to be like Emily Out of sight and really free Follow your heart she says Follow the stars she says She's the girl we'd love to be Oh to be like Emily Emily lives on her nerves Stealing the gold she deserves Sparkling a thousand fires bright Like the red sky at night Headful of crazy ideas Heartful of rhyme no-one hears It's up to her to decide Whether she'll seek or hide Oh to be like Emily Out of sight and really free Follow your heart she says Follow the stars she says She's the girl we'd love to be Oh to be like Emily Oh to be like Emily Out of sight and really free Follow your heart she says Follow the stars she says She's the girl we'd love to be Oh to be like Emily |

I've been watching the news,
And it doesn't feel safe, It seems so far removed this slumbering place, Cat at the hearth...dog at the door, Restless as sparrows awaiting the dawn, Don't go out tonight, Don't leave me alone, It doesn't feel safe in our English home, There's fear in my heart, In my ear a whisper, Are you afriad too, or is it just me? Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, I cross my heart and hope to die, You see through the whitest lie, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Where are we traveling to, Don't go out tonight, It doesn't feel safe, When I look in the mirror I don't see my face, Shut up our ears to the madness outside, We'll study old photographs, And listen to tunes, It's too cold and dark, Stay here by the fire, It doesn't feel safe, To live with a liar, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, I cross my heart and hope to die, You see through the whitest lie, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Understand how you've confused second-hand with dead... Tell me what am I supposed to do now? I could cry for a thousand years, Shed a thousand tears, Oh but now I fear you wouldn't believe it. Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, I cross my heart and hope to die, You see through the whitest lie, Never promise anyone forever, Never promise anyone forever, |

My young love said to me
My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you For your lack of kind And she laid her hand on me And this she did say It will not be long 'till our wedding day And she went away from me And she moved through the fair And fondly I watched her move here and move there And then she went onwards Just one star awake Like the swan in the evening Moves over the lake Last night she came to me My dead love came in So softly she came her feet make no din And she laid her hand on me And this she did say Oh it will not be long now 'Till our wedding day |

Shelter from the rain Lightning strikes again Shelter from the rain I'll shelter you If you'll shelter me again Shelter from the rain Lightning strikes again Shelter from the rain I'll shelter you If you'll shelter me again Shelter from the rain Lightning strikes again Shelter from the rain Ooh, I'll shelter you If you'll shelter me again |

There's a Victorian tin, I keep my memories in,
I found it up in the attic. After looking inside, I find the things that I'm hiding... The leaves saved from a mistletoe kiss, Only nostalgia has me feeling like this... Like I miss you, It must be the time of year. Remember December, It's like a wintergreen beside a diamond stream, Remember December, A fall of snow and the afterglow. It could be taking our breath away But the years stand in the way, Remember December, How does it make you feel inside? Beneath a Valentine, I see a locket is shining I think it must be the wine, Makes me feel it's all real. Where nothing seems to rhyme To breathe life into the dust of a keepsake I might as well try to fix a chain on a snowflake Or a heartache, It must be the time of year. Remember December, It's like a wintergreen beside a diamond stream, Remember December, A fall of snow and the afterglow. It could be taking our breath away But the years stand in the way, Remember December, How does it make you feel inside? Should I feel this alone, should I pick up the phone Should I call you up and wish you 'Happy Christmas'? I feel so alone, should I pick up the phone Take my heart in my hand And ask if you remember December, It's like a wintergreen beside a diamond stream, Remember December, A fall of snow and the afterglow. It could be taking our breath away But the years stand in the way, Remember December, How does it make you feel inside? |

Sugar and spices scattered all around you Stay awhile Say something strange and someone may believe you What do you get when you give your love?

A red neon sign draws him
Into a wine bar Where a woman is crying Unaware of the whisky he's buying her "Can I join you a while ma'am?" "Honey, when you're as broken up as I am You'd have to be Jesus to join up all these pieces" The night before the morning after "Are you here alone Can I take you home? It's a real disgrace Seeing your pretty face In this ugly place" The night before the morning after A ride in a taxi To a rented apartment in a back street Whisky-bottle graveyard Rent is low so she's trying to save hard To get out of the city It takes time but she won't take his pity They carry on drinking And she knows what he's thinking The night before the morning after And her stockings are torn And the heels of her shoes are worn She could be a waitress She could be an actress But he thinks she's a temptress The night before the morning after The night before the morning after There's a space in her bed Where the stranger laid his head She remembers him kissing her He was such a good listener But he sure won't be missing her |

Won't you let your hair down
Won't you kick your shoes off Maybe shake the blues off a while Or even crack a smile? Are you reading fortunes Or just reading Nietzsche? Find another teacher He ain't worth an apple But it takes more than the blues to bring me down Like a lonely house in a nowhere kind of town A hole in the sky where the rain comes tumbling down It'll take more than the blues to bring me down So you like to worry? You'd better kick the habit Better reach and grab it When you feel the sunshine Are we getting wiser Or just getting older When we know the shoulder We'd most like to cry on But it takes more than the blues to bring me down Like a lonely house in a nowhere kind of town A hole in the sky where the rain comes tumbling down It'll take more than the blues to bring me down But it takes more than the blues to bring me down Like a lonely house in a nowhere kind of town A hole in the sky where the rain comes tumbling down It'll take more than the blues to bring me down But it takes more than the blues to bring me down Like a lonely house in a nowhere kind of town A hole in the sky where the rain comes tumbling down It'll take more than the blues to bring me down Like a lonely house in a nowhere kind of town A hole in the sky where the rain comes tumbling down It'll take more than the blues to bring me down |

I had a dream that we were skating
The ice was thin and we were waiting to fall right in However deep the truth is hidden Once you know it's still forbidden It doesn't feel right We can throw it away And pieces of our heart Remain unbroken Just like the chain that binds us Just like the rain that finds us sheltering again Just like the chemistry All woven into tapestry By hands of Fate, and love and hate And sad guitars and stars If it feels right We can't throw it away They're pieces of our heart We can't tear it apart They're pieces of our heart We never needed to know And so we remain unspoken But if it feels right We can't throw it away They're pieces of our heart We can't tear it apart They're pieces of our heart We never needed to know And so we remain unspoken |

Behind me, a caravan weighed down
With bad dreams and ghosts of apologies There's no room, no room inside For a hitcher with a suitcase of pride Before me, a stallion pulls like the moon Sun through the trees tells me I'll be there soon The wind cries, 'cause she saw me crying About the times I find myself lying. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. Unhitch the wagon 'cause it hinders me I'll hitch my skirts up and go carelessly, Barefoot and riding bareback Wind in my hair, it feels like honesty. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. To your soul, to your soul. Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. Close the chapter on a journey... Burn the book and give me sanctuary, In your arms it feels like... In your arms it feels like... It feels like home. |

Dress me in scarlet
Ribbons and bows so everyone knows I'm hiding a face That hasn't the grace to go free. Dress me in shadows Sad April skies have opened my eyes To the lie that I live And given the river away I'll change these clothes if I want to, and I do I think that I've found out What no-one's about to tell me I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well. Waiting before me Poets and painters may say; "When will you stumble our way Kick off your red shoes and fly now" I'll die for their words if I want to, and I do. Always before me Poets and sages may say; "We've been lamenting your fall And carving it all into stone here And skimming them into the river, just for you..." I think that I've found out What no-one's about to tell me I think that I've found out The place where angels fell from... I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well. |

In shreds and threads and feeling used Are hanging up our yesterdays Down the street, the empty dance halls Due to empty circumstance All seem to be closed down today And through the silence I hear the word for love I hear the word for death But I don't hear any answer While death can talk of 'la mort' And love can whisper 'l'amour' The floor has lost its dancers Take your partner by the hand And dance the ghost of a sarabande Moving like a miracle Shoe to shoe and cheek to cheek Every day of every week Step by step by century Through the silence I hear the word for love I hear the word for death But I don't hear any answer While death can talk of 'la mort' And love can whisper 'l'amour' The floor has lost its dancers I hear the word for love I hear the word for death But I don't hear any answer While death can talk of 'la mort' And love can whisper 'l'amour' The floor has lost its dancers now |

Where they fell from the heaven Two pearl fishermen hold their breath again Fight to the death again for the same prize Oh my brother, one of us loses One must drown and the other she chooses The jade of the blue offers diamonds to you But you find it's not true when the sun sets You dive far below Where the sun doesn't go Where your brother won't know And you hear her saying: "Oh my lover, now that you've found me Now your brother is bound to be drowned I don't know why you'd feud over me All those pearls lay asleep on the sea bed" The pearl in his hand She's just a grain of sand She's dressed up as snow In the moonlight She's porcelain On his sallow skin He's been taken in By illusion Oh my brother, we're both of us losers I don't know why she ever did choose us To call one her lover and bury the other So I'll hold my breath 'til the story is over |

With no reason, no rhyme We keep falling into love 'Til our tired heart cries I don't know you And you don't know me Time has come to find Different skies... The sun and the moon collide One burning, one reflecting One fired up in demon red One pale and interesting We stand staring into the sun And then we want to be it Blindness of moths around a flame And we can't see it 'Cause I know you And you know me And there's the reason why 'Cause I know you And we know her Time has come to find... A different sky, A different place to shine A different sky, Without a reason why Can't tell is it heaven or hell Can't tell, I never lie I can't fool myself, So I found myself A different sky The sky I choose Is a myriad of ocean blues And when I think of you I like to think your sky is blue too Fireworks and clouds have made us find A different sky... |

On our own trip
On our emerald ship we sail away The ocean holds a thousand tales untold With this love It's easy come and easy go Just like the way we were Before the fall I don't see the reason why Every angel must fly I'm betrayed by the tear in my eye In my eye... Hey angel Don't be afraid to earth your heart When I see love descending like a dove Confusion... the song you hear the blackbird sing You fly to the sun And you're going to burn your wings I don't see the reason why Every angel must fly I'm betrayed by the tear in my eye In my eye... Well, I know every angel must fly You're flying too high You're flying too high Just see the reason why The angel must fly No more tears in my eye We can live in the sky High, high, high, high |

Six o'clock, all the closing shops
And the rainbows on the pavements Of a sleepy town. October leaves were wept from the trees In tears of grief and strange relief And sympathy.... all for me. Do you remember walking out The day it rained forever And you were wondering If I held dreams of wedding rings Well, farewell Mr. Sorrow Tomorrow is my own. I believe we made a vow Beside the fireside but I'm sure I lied When I promised you That I would never want sing Along with anything But for the strings of your guitar Here you are... So this is how a Judas kisses Well, this is my kiss. |

Where have the flowers gone sun-children
Your shirts are loud and your hair is long Now do you ever think we'll make it Something more than a uniform And we're almost there We learn to love and we learn to give And we earn the flowers in our hair Where has the vision gone sun-children Colours glow but your eyes are closed I swear I still believe we'll make it In your eyes I see your soul And we're almost there We learn to love and we learn to give And we earn the flowers in our hair my friend So take my hand One day is always too far away I wish we had the hearts of children Their eyes are wide and their love is pure But we only dare to say 'please love me' At the seventh glass of wine... |

Bright in flames
They're melting with the snow Precious wishes Heavenwards they go Secrets keep, no-one need ever know When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, You're just a breath away Painted words are whispered It's no prayer Whispering words Are drifting like the snow When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, You're just a breath away Away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away Away When you're in the clouds In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, You're just a breath away In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, in the clouds, In the clouds, You're just a breath away |

I sit by the harbour
The sea calls to me I hide in the water But l need to breathe You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I could find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away I've been run aground So sad for a sailor I felt safe and sound But needed the danger You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I would find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I would find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away Stow away Stow away |

How cruel am I to pass you by now?
And it's, a cold December, In the heat of next July now, Will you or won't you remember? Chorus: Our summer, will come again, Our summer, melts the ice again, Our summer, will come again, Our summer, melts the ice again. Gypsy whispers with her wild eyes, So heavy-handed with the heather, She says a change of heart lies, With a change, in the weather. Chorus x2 Chorus x 3 |

Like a bird I'm living on the wing and on the run
I'm wondering if paradise was won by the gun You gather fruit from danger trees See more than you want to see Too late, too late... We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Will it ever come again When you call ? So catch if angels should Fall in your arms For every night a reaching hand A thousand snake mouths open wide Too late, too late... We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Don't know where to go Don't think you'll find it I kneel down somewhere So maybe they'll find me You may have your dreams But heaven you steal Live by the sword Live by the gun Never to rest 'Til your heaven is won We didn't know what it was And all we know is we've lost it We threw away paradise And all we know is we've dreamt it Gonna get it back Gonna get it back Will it ever come again...? |

Behind me, a caravan weighed down
With bad dreams and ghosts of apologies There's no room, no room inside For a hitcher with a suitcase of pride Before me, a stallion pulls like the moon Sun through the trees tells me I'll be there soon The wind cries, 'cause she saw me crying About the times I find myself lying. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. Unhitch the wagon 'cause it hinders me I'll hitch my skirts up and go carelessly, Barefoot and riding bareback Wind in my hair, it feels like honesty. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. I must have fallen by the wayside The wheels crack beneath my foolish pride Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. To your soul, to your soul. Give me a sign in your direction And show me to road to your soul. Close the chapter on a journey... Burn the book and give me sanctuary, In your arms it feels like... In your arms it feels like... It feels like home. |

Dress me in scarlet
Ribbons and bows so everyone knows I'm hiding a face That hasn't the grace to go free. Dress me in shadows Sad April skies have opened my eyes To the lie that I live And given the river away I'll change these clothes if I want to, and I do I think that I've found out What no-one's about to tell me I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well. Waiting before me Poets and painters may say; "When will you stumble our way Kick off your red shoes and fly now" I'll die for their words if I want to, and I do. Always before me Poets and sages may say; "We've been lamenting your fall And carving it all into stone here And skimming them into the river, just for you..." I think that I've found out What no-one's about to tell me I think that I've found out The place where angels fell from... I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well. |

Were you looking for a sister
Or looking for your mother ? I was looking for a love inspired I didn't need a little brother to hold When the wind blew cold A string of hearts lie in your wake You tried to take along for the ride I must be out of my head To get strung out on your silver thread A strange way of showing your love You had a strange way.... I hear you met a young girl I hear she is your lover So when you break her young, sweet heart She'll find it easy to recover Not like me, I took you seriously And for a while I lost my smile, I lost my way but I found something out.... It's going to take something more than you To break a spirit like mine A strange way of showing your love Just for the thrill of it all But then the future is blind Just for the thrill of it all I'm good at wasting my time But I'm on my way, I've had enough The winter comes the wind blows cold.... It isn't forever. |

She saw that he closed the door
She stole a look in the guarded book His prose was a line of crows On a washing line in the summer time And the wind blew the crows around Some made the sky, some hit the ground She never heard a fuller sound It comes as no surprise; She's in love with the dreamer, So in love with his world. He had songs you could sing along to In any time, in any key. They were jewels in elysian pools In eternity for all to see And the water helped the jewels to shine, Some like the stars and some like wine In the eyes of earthbound angels It comes as no surprise... He makes her close her eyes, He helps her paint the skies blue. And the seventh dream was, so surreal When the dreamer broke the seventh seal And butterflies all lost their wheels It comes as no surprise... |

I have visions, I have views
And the Sandman in my shoes Take me dreaming where the waters lie I have apples in my eyes I have blackbirds in my pies I have everything I need If I had you.. If I had you, I'd used your arms to fall into If I had you, I'd never had to care If I had you, I'd like to see the world the way you do Like to see the world If I had you I have a splendid tambourine I have letters from the Queen Worth a fortune in the dessert I have ghosts who bring me flowers I have birds with psychic powers I have everything I need If I had you... |

Can't see the wood for all of the trees
Can't hear the wind for the breeze that whispers Voice in your head... you like what it said So what can you do but listen to it? What kind of fool Lays all that's precious to waste? What kind of fool Leaves all their treasure to rust in the rain? They'll need it again when the sky clears What kind of fool Won't discover the jewel 'Til the dust clears ? Fools like us... Fools who want more than they've treasured before Wanting the dawn of the brightest morning Reach for the stars 'cause they're sweeter by far Than the moon 'though she's brighter And closer to you... What kind of fool Lays all that's precious to waste? What kind of fool Leaves all their treasure to rust in the rain? They'll need it again when the sky clears What kind of fool Won't discover the jewel 'Til the dust clears ? Fools like us... Can't see the wood for all of the trees Can't hear the wind for the breeze that whispers Reach for the stars 'cause they're sweeter by far Than the moon 'though she's brighter And closer to you... What kind of fool Lays all that's precious to waste? What kind of fool Leaves all their treasure to rust in the rain? They'll need it again when the sky clears What kind of fool Won't discover the jewel 'Til the dust clears ? Fools like us, Like us, like us, like us... |

The grey of winter falls on us -
How will our garden grow ? Will all the seeds we've sown Survive beneath the snow ? We've been here before, Wrapped in our regret. All those winter words, I want us to forget them... Seasons may change And they hold wild flowers, Raising their face to the sun. All that are born from our soft rainshowers Are wild flowers. Morning breaks And no-one wakes; No bird is here to sing. So, from the south I wish them back To brace the spring. They've flown south before, It's just the way they live. For when I try to fly away Can you forgive me ? Seasons may change and they hold wild flowers... |

Baby sings the blues... for you
She may get happy later Baby cries for comfort For something to surround her And when she sings it You believe her How everyone she ever knew Would leave her spinning 'round All on fire Another wild hearted woman Another child with the stars in her eyes A wild hearted woman And she's falling... falling Baby's lost her soul... to you Call her a fallen angel Stormy weather forever With every friend a stranger And when she sings it You believe her How everyone she ever knew Would leave her spinning 'round All on fire Another wild hearted woman Another child with the stars in her eyes A wild hearted woman And she's falling... falling Lost little girl In hurricanes of love and pain Locked in her world Of daisy chains and love and pain Trying to find peace of mind Another wild hearted woman... Another child with the stars in her eyes A wild hearted woman And she's falling... falling Another wild hearted woman... Another child with the stars in her eyes A wild hearted woman And she's falling... falling |
