See her face
Everyday
See her face
Doesn't help me
See her face
Everyday
See her face
Doesn't help me

She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her
She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her

Think of her
Everyday
Think of her
Doesn't help me
Think of her
Everyday
Think of her
Doesn't help me

She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her
She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her

She doesn't help me
She doesn't help me
She doesn't help me

She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her
She's so high
She's so high
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her

Sitting in an S.D.T.
Waiting for an underground train
To rumble underneath my feet
Bang goes another day
Where it went I could not say
Now I'll have to wait another week
When all is said and all is done
What was said was never done
Don't panic it's not really worth your while
Bang goes another year
In and out of one ear
Everybody's doing it so - do it too

I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better

Sitting on the early bus
Passing through the morning rush
It makes no difference that I'm not
With you
Bang goes another year
In and out of one ear
Evrybody's doing it I'll - do it too

I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better

I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone

What you want to be is what I am
How you want to feel is how I feel
But nothing stays the same when I am here
Just waiting for it all to disappear
I know, I know, I know it'll come between us
I know, I know
I'd like to get into that pretty head
Just to see, to see if you are dead
And it would amuse me just to see how
How you feel about me and this crowd
I know, I know, I know it'll come between us

. . .



It's up to you
You know it is
I can't convince you
All you have to do is slow down
I've always said it'll never change
All you have to do just to be you
Think that's all I want to say

And all the things
I've ever told you
I didn't mean them all
I didn't mean them all, I'd forget you
So if you come here
If you come here
All you have to do
Just to be you
Think that's all I want to say to you

And all those things
That I'd told you
I didn't them all
Didn't mean them all, I'd forget you
So if you come here
If you come here
All you have to do
Just to be you
Think that's all I need to say to you


. . .



(So much...)
So sure
So sure you are
Nothing can touch you now
I need to know
Did you think of me
But you're forgetting me now
Slow down
Don't be so
Eager to let me go
Realise it could change you
It could change your mind

Try, try, try
Try, try, try
All things remain the same
So why try again
Try again

Slow down
Don't be so
Eager to let me go
I need to know
Do you think of me
But you've forgotten me now

Try, try, try
Try, try, try
All things remain the same
So why try again
Try again
Try again
Try again

Try, try, try
Try, try, try
All things remain the same
So why try again
Try again
Try again
Try again
Try, try again
Try, try again

Listen to the good, that's it for real

She don't know how
How to feel
This is a bad day
This is a bad day
To know
She don't know how
How to feel
This is a bad day
This is a bad day
To know

Sing
Can't feel
'Cos I'm numb
Can't feel
'Cos I'm numb
So what's the worth
In all of this
(This...)
What's the worth
In all of this

Sing to me
Sing to me

So what's the worth
In all of this
(This...)
If the child in your head
If the child is dead

Sing to me
Sing to me


. . .



I can't feel 
"Cos I am numb 
I can't feel 
"Cos I am numb 
So what's the worth in all of this 
What's the worth in all of this 

Sing to me 

So what's the worth in all of this 
If the child in your head 
If the child is dead 


. . .



You've taken the fun
Out of everything
You're making me run
When I don't want to think
You've taken the fun
Out of everything
I don't want to think at all

There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play

You've taken the fun
Out of everything
You're making it clear when I don't want to think
You're taking me up when I don't to go up anymore
I'm just watching it all

There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play
There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play

(Ahh, ahhh, watch you play
Ahh, ahhh, watch you play..)

There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play
There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play
There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do is watch them play
There's no other way
There's no other way

Sorry, but I don't understand
The things you say they make no sense at all
Funny but I think that you mean them all

This time don't you
I know that you think I'm a fool
But couldn't you try to forgive a fool
One more time

Sorry but I'm not really listening
I've got my mind on something else
If I'm here if I'm here at all

I know that you want me to go don't you
Well it's not as easy as it seems
I know that you think I'm not here at all
But I'm just as fed up as you

I know that you want me to leave
I'm amazed at how cold you can be

. . .



I don't understand
Walking all over me
All over me to you
You must be mad
And you know you are
You should have known that I'd do
Anything for you

So why, why
Don't we come together
Why?
Why, Why
Don't we come together
Why?

Inside my head
There's nothing left
It's all been taken out by you
And do I care?
Well you know I do
You should have known that I'd do
Anything for you

So why, why
Don't we come together
Why?
Why, Why
Don't we come together
Why?

Now it's all been said
And you know it all
Then you should have known that I'd do
Anything for you

For you
For you
For you
For you

So why, why
Don't we come together
Why?
Why, Why
Don't we come together
Why?

. . .



If you come here
Which you sometimes do
Don't really think that I really want you to
And if you come here
Which you always do
Don't think that I expect you to

Is that all I give you?
Is that all I give you?

And you talk too much
Which you always do
Don't think that I really want you to
And if you talk too much
Which you always do
Don't think that I really need you to

Is that all I give you?
Is that all I give you?

Is that all I give you?
Is that all I give you?

It's my birthday
No one here day
Very strange day
A think of you day
Go outside day
Sit in park day
Watch the sky day
What a pathetic day

I don't like this day
It makes me feel too small

I don't like these days

. . .



Every time I come here
I'm not sure what to say
I know it should be easy
But it never seems that way
You, you make me feel
Like no-one ever will
So why, why do you bore me
Until my heart is still?

You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now
And I can't fight
You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now
And I can't fight

I can't say I love you easily
And you wouldn't want me too
So I'd rather just say nothing
And leave it up to you
Then it's easy to forget
You're just as small as me
Then it's easy to forget
You're just as foolish as me

You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now
And I can't fight
You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now
And I can't fight you

You, you make me feel
Like no-one ever will
So why, why do you bore me
Until my heart is still?

You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now
And I can't fight
You, you wear me down
My defences are gone now

. . .


Fear of being left behind
Can take you over
Suddenly you will choke
Maybe it's just a joke
I'm not sure of you

I can't hear you now
There's too much that's going around
You seem a worried fool
So don't think I'm cool
Makes me me unsure
Of you-

Fear of being left alone
Can take you over
Slowly you will choke
And say it's just a joke
I'm not sure--of you

. . .


Mr Briggs is on holiday
But he stays in his room
He's too cold to go out for his evening smoke
The lady down the hallway
Is deaf and dumb to what you say
She's too busy dreaming of chihuahua dog
Say goodbye
Slowly drift away
To somewhere
Mr Briggs needs sleep now
He's been up for a week
He can hear a buzz buzz buzzing in his head
He has a three-bar heater
But it can't keep him warm
If he bought another then he'd have three more
Say goodbye
Slowly drift away
To somewhere
Mr Briggs while on holiday
Never left his bed
Walked around in circles but only in his head
The lady down the hallway
Is running out of pills
She could pull herself together but she knows she never will
Say goodbye
Somewhere
