Graham Coxon Album

I saw you today
You were too far away
It'd hurt me to say
Hurt me to say, the words
The words I have to say
There ain't no sound
When you're not around
And it gets me down
Yeah it gets me down
My life feels so brown

I just want to be with you
That's all I wanna do
I just want to be with you
That's all I wanna do

Inside my brain
It's just not the same
Cus it's started to rain
It's started to rain

I just want to be with you
That's all I wanna do
I just want to be with you

Where'd you go?
Dark eyed traveller
I almost feel you breathe
Where'd you go?
Dark eyed traveller
Can you even hear me speak?

You made things bright
When they took the light away
Led me inside and kissed all my tears away
Said you were here to stay

Where'd you go?
In the morning
When I was weighted down with dreams

Where'd you go?
In the morning
When fever pulled me down stream

You made things bright
Then you took the light away
Lent me your eyes and showed me a brand new way

Long time on the phone line
There's sunshine when I dial 9
Small breaths form words
Like crystals in warm air
And I want you for my very very own
In a salty sea, our voices meet
Long time on the phone line
There's sunshine when I dial 9
Small breaths form words
Like crystals in warm air
And I want you for my very very own

On sticks and sand, lost my money, lost my hands
Blood on my brain, too much salt in my veins
And I thought pain was clean
And I thought hearts were strong
But bones aren't sticks anymore
And a day is far too long

So many days never needing any grace
Live for kicks and danger, there'd be beauty any way

And I thought pain was clean
And I thought hearts were strong
But bones aren't sticks anymore
And a day is far too long

And a day is far too long

When all the nights are dream
And not really what they seem
I'd cut my hair in spite
And set my hands on fire
Are you lonely?
Are you lonely?
Are you lonely?

In the daylight hours
I go out and kill the flowers
Faces all too clear
Keep on looming near

Are you lonely?
Are you lonely?

I wish the music would play by itself,
Shredded fingers... no ideas
I wish this rainy day could be the last,
Could the world end?... what a God send

I wish I could stop wishing you were here,
But I don't want to... cus I'd still want you

I wish I didn't feel so flippin mad,
Don't wanna scare you... just wanna love you

I wish my life could last a thousand years,
Then I'd be clever... and build a heaven

I wish I could bring Nick Drake back to life,
He'd understand... hold my hand

I wish a constant stream of happy shit,
Live forever... in world of leather

I wish the rain would just leave me alone,
I can't wear that... stupid rain hat

I wish I was in California
Pernod perfume.. in the Danube

I wish the thing of love meant just one thing

Treat me hard and slow
Don't let me go
Strip me of my clothes

Me you
We two
Trying to begin
Trying to begin
We you
We two
Trying to begin
Trying to begin

And the wind will blow
But my love won't go
My love won't go

Me you
We two
Trying to begin

Waiting for my friend
Waiting for my friend
Waiting for my friend
Waiting for my friend
And I don't want no one to know
I can't talk with you
I can't talk with you
I can't talk with you
I can't talk with you
If you don't want me to

Waiting for my friend
Waiting for my friend
And I don't want no one to know

I stole the bottle of gin from over the counter and ran, I knew I'd been seen.
I scarpered stifling giggles down the street and hid round a corner on a side
street.

I heard him huffing and the sound of his big feet against the paving, he was
getting close.

As he rounded the corner
I sighted him up down the barrel of the gun
and on seeing his expression change to one of horror + confusion jerked back the
trigger.
His body was jolted back by the force of the bullet + his feet flew foward.
I saw a bright little rivulet of blood are into the air and I slid the gun into
the waistband of my trousers.

Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?

Is there really a thing like feeling too much?
Can you really escape + numb the real?

There's a way of saying, a way of sayin a shape
I feel a certain shape and it's complicated it's not like a square or a circle.
It's like a crystal or a diamond, it's clean, hard, unfathomable and it ends in
an augmented kiss
It ends in an augmented (demented) kiss

Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?

Rock Stars are not cool.
They're full of his guy they call Satan, kids stuff oozing from their mouths.


They wear the shoes of dead soldiers shot by soldiers,
valium horses trotting squeezing through their raspberry blood.

Sometimes I feel so stoopid I wanna quit
get out of it cus I hate this world and everyone in it
The fat Bald men who run it - the fat bald men.

Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
Who the fuck are you looking at?
