Peter Murphy Album

You came to the lobby straight
I took your hand, felt the heat of a different fate
Took sometime to tell you my name
I could smell the sense of fear
Had been lifted from your face
It was time to kick the facade
Walk into the room
Disappear without trace
Oh then I recognised you

It was bright
It was dark
You could say
I couldn't start
I couldn't feel
If the words were right

You were right, I was gone
When you said that the fight was on
With one look, I was yours
The things you gave, the things I took
See that star, in the sky
It's a mirror to my woman's mind
Let me burn in her fire
In that mirror to my woman's mind

I'm gonna take you to the mountain first
Then we'll look down on the work, work to be done
There's no need to live for the world
Don't leave the world, the world will leave you

It was bright
It was dark
Something big
Was about to start
I wouldn't say
I'd got it right

You were right, I was gone
When you said that the fight was on
With one look, I was yours
The things you gave, the things I took
See that star, in the sky
It's a mirror to my woman's mind
Let me burn in her fire
In that mirror to my woman's mind

Ohh
Say you will be mine
Say lie, lie
Lala, lalala, la, lala, lala, lala, la
La, lalala, lala, la
La, lala, lala, lalala, la, lala, lala, la
Say you will be mine
Say lie lie
La, lalalala, la, lala, lala, la
La, lalala, lalala, lalala

It's like there's a straight way
You know, you know
I've told you before it's as thin as ice
As thin as the razor snow

Don't freeze in the snow
Don't bake in the heat
I'll be your breath
There's a place where we can meet

There's a place where we can meet
There's a place where we can meet

Use me
Don't sleep in the subway
Don't sleep in the pouring rain

Use me
Don't sleep in the subway
Don't sleep in the pouring rain

Be my voice in my midnight meditation
When I wake, be my heart's flotation
Come and fill, come and fill from the overflow
Come and play, come and play, be like a bird

Don't sleep in the subway, I'm, I'm needing you
Well I, I feel you, you're closing down, yeah
Get close, talk right through me
Get close, keep tight with me

If you fall now it could be forever
I'm telling you the line is thin now
I've told you before this hate is a sin
Empty out for the overflow, let love begin

Don't sleep in the subway
Don't sleep in the pouring rain

Don't sleep in the subway
Don't sleep in the pouring rain

There's a place where we can meet
There's a place where we can meet
There's a place where we can meet
There's a place where we can meet

It only takes the time between here and there
For landing in another place
Saw your shadow fleeting in the corner of my eye
Your feet were skimming the sand
And then some began to fly
Lasted no time at all, no time at all, no time at all

Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels
Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels

The flower seller told the tale
Saw you kiss the king one minute
Then the next, set sail
Two places in one time and that's not all
In one you're swimming to the limit
Then the next you're riding whales

This clever never no man's land
Angels whisper that you're winning
And stars that leave no trail
It took you no time to leave the land
When you kissed the king one minute
And the next you're setting sail

Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels
Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels

Gliding like a whale
Gliding like a whale
Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels
Gliding like a whale

You came, I saw
I held your hand outta sight
'Cause your cause is just a cause
'Cause I came here to be with you

I'm like you I'll get inside you
Just like you came to be me
I'll do the mirror walk
Disappearing in her hand

He says to her "Your eyes are sick"
He says that mine are fine
She says "That's not what the doctor said"
He takes her word for it this time

It that's me you, you me thing
The who's who of the lovers club
You can't get a grip on nothing now can you?
There's no love where there is no love, no

How did I get so lucky
Walking in these shoes?
As a kid I yearned for this
Disappearing in her hand

I like you, I'll look out from you
Just like you say the word of full return
Come and go, stay the same
Disappearing in her hand

Looking for the ocean wide, ocean swimming
Like a fish is swimming in the ocean
They heard that God was the water
But they were swimming in it all the time

All the time, hand
Disappearing in her hand
Disappearing in her hand
Disappearing in her hand
Disappearing in her hand
No, no, no, no

Hand no, no, no
Disappearing in her hand
Hand no, no, no
Disappearing in her hand
Hand no, no, no
Disappearing in her hand
Hand no, no, no
Disappearing in her hand
Hand no, no, no
Disappearing in her hand

Would you walk with me tonight?
Could you run where the lovers run?
Would you stay with me tonight?

Will you forgive me if I rush
When I tell you I am yours
As we run where the lovers run?

Umm, run with the sound
I won't let you down, down, down
Let you down
Run with the sound
I won't let you down

Would you swim from the river's edge?
Could you jump where the lovers jump?
Would you stay with me tonight?

Let's be the runners in the mercy rain
Be my bridge when I fear to cross
As we run where the lovers run

Run with the sound
Won't let you down
I won't let you down, down, down
Let you down
Run with the sound
Won't let you down

(Swim)
(Swim)
Swim
Swim
Swim
Swim

To the crowd to the world you were so dry
And with a token bird I made sent it to fly
Right to your side with a broken wing you sail
Oh like winter in July a barren river wide
I'll pray for the flood to wash on you it's here, I'll be with you

Well if the birds can reach the sky to this land
I'll be with you till the sun bursts from your side
With my hands I reach to you when you think your chance is passing by
When you blow your moon away I'll bleed like the reed
Fall with your knife it's here I'll be with you

To the crowd to the world you were so dry
And with a token bird I made sent it to fly
Right to your side with a broken wing you sail
Oh like winter in July a barren river wide
I'll pray for the flood to wash on you it's here, I'll be with you

It's here, I'll be with you, oh
I'll fall, I'll fall, I'll fall, I'll fall
I'll fall, I'll fall, I'll fall, I'll fall, oh

From the world to the dreaming fields of light, yeah from the soaking mud
Gonna fly up to the sky to the scarlet thing in you
On the red wings I will sail at night to the scarlet thing in you
On a long lost ocean wave of light, submerged and unafraid

I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one

No way back to recall the way, 'cause I threw out all the why's
Spinning with the spider in the cave, found the scarlet thing in you
Where the birds can't reach, no words can teach
Spinning in the cave for the scarlet thing in you

I saw you
You saw me

I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one
I saw you, you were one

Everything's all right
Everything's all right
Everything's all right
Everything's all right

Spinning in the cave for the scarlet thing in you
Spinning in the cave for the scarlet thing in you
Spinning in the cave for the scarlet thing in you
Spinning in the cave for the scarlet thing in you

Dream - the light was shining hard
And though the lie was the night
Dream - you were the light and colliding with the stars
In a way - my guide

And there light will pave the way that you go
In the light of the silver moon

Sails and wave good bye
Sails and wave good bye

Looking out from a bridge
Sails wave good bye
Behind a curtain
Activate and join
My mind devoid
Reinstate my beloved

And there light will pave the way that you
go
In the light of the silver moon

Sails and wave good bye
Sails and wave good bye

Looked like a blue eyes lonely boy
Hair skating to the ground
Read the air between the words
From the kingdom he was bound
In loving, he gave all he could know
All lips lick like a wave
And like a blue eyed lonely boy
To every friend, a slave

Wild birds flock to me
Wild birds
Wild birds flock to me

You are the lamb, the king, the sun
Why do you hide away?
Put like a picture on the wall
No one to see your rays
You are inside of sight an ark
The fountain of your youth
Come like a moth burn in the flame
Or take us though the roof

Wild birds flock to me
Soaring rocks for company
Pure people work on me
Love's own necessity
Wild birds flock to me
Soaring rocks for company
Pure people work on me
Love's own necessity

Wild birds flock to me
Wild birds flock to me

Wild birds flock to me
Wild birds flock to me

Wild birds, wild birds
Wild birds flock to me

One fine night the air did bring
Two little ones, called to be
I am, yours to mind so let that be
Give your life, it's given free

Huuvola, huuvola, huuvola, huuvola

When a time, that will come to part us
Forget me not, for it is here in those missing times
We send our deepest sense to climb
One fine night where one heart enjoins

Huuvola, huuvola, huuvola, huuvola

Hark and be well
Go catch the light in every cell
Let the fire take the fire and the rain wash the pain
May your soul's waters never wane

Make Eden here
Send Angel's prayers
May your garden be sweet
Let the fire take the fire
Let the fire take the fire and the rain wash the pain

Huuvola, huuvola, huuvola, huuvola
Huuvola, huuvola, huuvola, huuvola

We have no image
We're just called, "The good friends"
We call the madmen back
As they fly to the ant hills
We never know, we never know
We sleep in satin nights
Throwing energy like bluebirds
In twilight
In twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight

We have no image
We're just called, "The good friends"
We call the madmen back
As they fly to the ant hills
We never know, we never know
We sleep in satin nights
Throwing energy like bluebirds
In twilight
In twilight
In twilight

We call to stillness
As we kiss the water king's hand
We hear the one same name
As the darker the land gets
We never know, we never know
We're fueling for the light
Cascading like the rain
In twilight

Waiting for you, you look so close
We walk a thousand stairs
Aching for your hand
Our love a distant voice
We have no image
We are light

We are not asking
No favors from the dead
We wash with moonlit hands
On the shores of our island
We never know, we never know
We sleep in satin nights
Throwing energy in silver curves
In twilight
Cascading like the rain in twilight

We have no image
We're just called, "The good friends"
We call the madmen back
As they fly
