In this MOMENT
no-one is pulling me DOWN into the GROUND
in this moment
NO-ONE is pulling me down into the GROUND

i can't help it if i'm HAPPY
i can't help it if i'm happy NOT TO BE SAD
'cause when you WALK IN THE ROOM
i see things that I can't understand

i want you endlessly, i want you endlessly, i want you endlessly

i was tired - working myself into an early grave
i was lonely - trying to teach myself how to behave
but these things have their own PATTERNS
these things are FATHOMLESSLY out of OUR HANDS
and when you WALK IN THE ROOM
i know my life's never going to be PLANNED

all of these old addresses
ALL of these empty guesses
YOU carry ALL OF THEIR WEIGHT on your back

i want you endlessly, i want you endlessly, i want you endlessly, i want you endlessly

in this moment
no-one is PULLING ME DOWN into the ground
in this moment
NO-ONE is pulling me down into the ground

. . .


Fly yellow moon
You put the smile back on my face
Fly yellow moon
Fare you well

Fly yellow moon
You give this charmless world some grace
and I don't know how you
do all of these things you do
They're so brand new
So brand new

Once I was livid
Once I was in hate
Once I was Lear on the rocks

The coast collapses
Autumn leaves without a trace
We're rolling down a hill
Yet our bodies lie here still
They're so brand new
So brand new

The coast collapses
Autumn leaves without a trace
and all I want to do
Is run circles around you
You're so brand new
So brand new

. . .


When love is a crippled dream
When love is a crippled dream
That's where you'll find me
Saying I'm not afraid

And when love is a barricade
When love is a barricade
That's where I'll find you
Saying we're already made

I want to be near you all day
I want to be near you all day
I want to be near you all day
Don't go away

When love is a howling face
Trapped in a hollow place
I won't surrender
or give you up

So don't put up these barricades
We don't need barricades
We have each other
And that won't fade

I want to be near you all day
I want to be near you all day
I want to be near you all day
Don't go away

To the dark, to the smoke
To those downstairs
No fares

I want to be near you all day
I want to be near you all day

. . .


There's salt in the air, it's a taste that I know
and the memory of you has started to go
Sometimes we live just to get thrown
And so a cheap train ticket is carrying me back to my home

High on the tide
Chasing my demons away completely
High on the tide
Can in my hand going down so sweetly
High on the tide
Don't wake me up and tell me that I'm dreaming
it's just how I am

Stumbling barefoot over the sands
With no-one and nothing at my command
But with the waves on the shore and the sea in my hair
I can honestly say this - I really and truly don't care

High on the tide
Killing my boredom by doing nothing
High on the tide
Finally this world resembles something
High on the tide
Oh who needs forever when all they have's opinions
Hey I'm doing fine.

For once in my life
I'm glad to be here not there

High on the tide
Sun falling down but it feels like morning
High on the tide
Tomorrow is just an idea
On the high tide
Don't wake me up and tell me what you're leaving

I already know

. . .


When there's storm clouds higher than heaven
And there's angels defeating themselves
And you can't get past half past eleven
Without feeding the sharks on the shelf

then...

Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun we'll run away

When you can't sleep for all of these visions
of the iridescent lands
and you can't reach a single decision
without your wet face kissing your hands

Then throw it in the sand
(breathe it in, breathe it out)
Try to understand
Love lands

Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun...

No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more

Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun

No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No more
No more

. . .


There was a crack in your smile the day you were born
You're out on the pull and it's making you yawn
Good samaritans never play their part
Come round, let me put my hands around your heart

Livewire, your life is in the fire
You got everything to play for
1-1, half time
Livewire, the world is yours to hire
We got everything to live for
Don't kick it all the time

Standing in the borough markets selling straws
People just stare at you and gawp
You'd like to say you're wasted,
but it's not the alcohol that's making you feel like a flat spare wheel

Livewire, your life is in the fire
We got everything to play for
1-1, half time
Livewire, the world is yours to hire
You got everything to live for
Don't kick it all the time

Helicopters hover over the street
There's always somebody else you're dying to meet
And you're always getting older
That's the deepest thought you can commit to paper
As the nights get later

Livewire, your life is in the fire
We've got everything to play for
1-1, half time
Livewire, the world is yours to hire
You've got everything to live for
Don't kick it all the time
Don't kick it all the time

. . .


Firebird come into me tonight
Stay awake with me through this dark night
We can ride til the morning light
On a bicycle made for two
On a bicycle made for two

Hush for the baby he's asleep in the hay
And if we should wake him we'll be turned stony grey
Silence is golden and it's ours today
On a bicycle made for two
On a bicycle made for two

Some come higher, some come low
Some come demon-faced, some come slow
Some come beautiful, helpless and warm
like the first drop of water after the storm

Firebird stay with me tonight
All the world is asleep
The world is alright
And as long as you're mine we can conquer light
On a bicycle made for two
On a bicycle made for two

. . .


When my days are rolling stones
When my memories ring like telephones
And I'll have somewhere I can go
I'll have comfort, this one thing I know

You pull another blanket round me
Yeah you, pull another blanket round me

This is where I want to be
This is where I want to be
She needs me
She needs me
She needs me
And it's okay

Silver thunder, turquoise stream
Leaves of amber, fields of emerald green
You sketch all those shades on me
I am yours, you can do what you like with me

Yeah you, pull another blanket round me
Yeah you, you pull another blanket round me

'Cause this is where I want to be
This is where I want to be
She needs me
She needs me
She needs me
And it's okay

This is where I want to be
This is where I want to be

I am yours, you can do what you like with me
I am yours, you can do what you like with me
I am yours, you can do what you like with me, with me

Faster than the setting sun
We'll run away

. . .


Don't be shy
It'll get you nowhere
I was shy
And it got me nowhere
And I feel like turning into a boy again

When you're young
Buckets don't have holes in
Days are long
And summer always rolls in
bowls in
And you feel like turning to the sky and crying
"stay, stay, stay"

And if the truth is what you want
Then things aren't looking good
There've been dreams in my life
But they rot away like wood

In a good year
One or two may come true
But dreams aren't really dreams are they
Once they've come true
They just vanish within you

So don't be cold when a lover calls you
Go to her, ask her to sing for you
Adore you
And she'll make you feel like you're a boy again
For a moment that will pass
For a moment that will pass

. . .


The boy in the iron mask with wire for brains
is firing bows and arrows wherever he thinks it should rain
Yeah he's drunk too much coffee once again

This could go in any direction
Any direction at all
This could go in any direction
Any direction at all

Our memories in the cupboard are getting up and walking
And there's life going on but we're too busy talking
What I am trying to say
Is that we're losing our way

But this could go in any direction
Any direction at all
This could go in any direction
Any direction at all

And some heart is always going to get broken
And somebody's always going to crack
Something is always going to be incomplete
But you have to stop this looking back

This could go in any direction
Any direction at all
This could go in any direction
Any direction at all

You could go in any direction
Any direction at all
Yeah this could go in any direction
Any direction at all

Hold your nerve and keep on walking
All we have to do is keep on walking

This could go in any direction
Any direction at all
This could go in any direction
Any direction at all

. . .


She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child,
But she's always a woman to me

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe
And she'll take what you give her
As long as it's free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me

Chorus
Ooooh she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Ooooh and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleeding
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me

Hmmmm hmmmmm

Chorus
Ooooh she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Ooooh and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me

Hmmmm hmmmmm

. . .


Come, come out of the dark and play
Be gone, take another holiday
Don't grow, you can't stay

Light, will you ever make a man of me?
In flight is all I ever want to be
My unborn child, so much to say
The light
The spark
Scattered through the lovers' snow
Whispered through the breeze unknown
You missed the greatest show

Break, breaking off is all we do
Awake, sleeping at the same time too
We're lovers, but we're stars

Grace, make another star-lit sky
A place, everything we meant to buy
With the shadows of these cards
The game
The joke
What else could I hope to know
Something always made us joke

Embers
Some would say
Awake, asleep
It's the greatest show on earth
A whole world celebrates your birth
One child I'll never know

. . .


When we wake up in the morning light
If we even wake at all
Do you think we could forget last night,
That it happened at all?

I'm sorry
You give me my heartbeat
You give me the stars
You give me an answer, everywhere you are

Dark clouds fall over me
And I think of losing you,
It's enough to set my tears welling like the sea

A dismal ghost's been taking over me
I've been so so far from well
I made noughts and crosses with the things I loved
Killed your magic for some old spell

I'm sorry
Listen to our heartbeats
Listen to the stars
The same length as music and everything we are

God knows what's got to me
If the thought of losing you's enough to send me sinking deep beneath the sea

Can we start again

I'm sorry
A life without you by me is one I can't believe
You're standing there in every picture that I see

Let's start again
And we can paint away these scratches on the rainbow over you and me

If we start again
We can start again
Let's start again

. . .


When there's storm clouds higher than heaven
And there's angels defeating themselves
And you can't get past half past eleven
Without feeding the sharks on the shelf

then...

Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun we'll run away

When you can't sleep for all of these visions
of the iridescent lands
and you can't reach a single decision
without your wet face kissing your hands

Then throw it in the sand
(breathe it in, breathe it out)
Try to understand
Love lands

Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun
Faster than the setting sun...

No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more

Faster than the setting sun we'll run away
Faster than the setting sun

No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No they don't slow dance no more
No more
No more
