It's six in the morning
And theres noone else around
The mist has fallen
As i look out on the town
It's playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
It's too close for tears
And it too hard to forget
It's too close for tears
I think i thought i said
It's playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Who's gonna find me?
Tell me where i can go?
Who's gonna find me, searching, alone.
The face in the mirror
It's a face ive never met
Until i forgive her ill remember to forget
It's playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Who's gonna find me?
Tell me where i can go?
Who's gonna find me, searching, alone.
And the hours, they build
From underneath the spell, once again
It's 6 in the evening
And im sweeping up the day
The people beneath them
But i am here to stay
It's playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Whos gonna find me?
Tell me where i can go?
Who's gonna find me, searching, alone.

See her walking down the street
She reads the signs that no-one sees
I ask myself will she remember me?
From Edge Lane to London Road
I'd catch the bus there every Friday
Hoping that I'd see her once again
Heavy sighs and border lines
I'm a prisoner when she's so fancy free
Will she remember me?
It seemed like a month of Sundays
Since I saw her cross that road
The summer sun it never seemed so cold
Then on day to my surprise
I spied her on the other side
I tried to speak but my tongue it was tied
I met a friend who knew her mother
He said he saw her yesterday
He said she said that she went away
Now she wears a diamond ring
And glides across the crystal floor
She doesn't walk down my street anymore
. . .

I caught you crying
Trying to hide your tears away
And all the while
I never knew you felt this way
I've loved you from the start
How could we let this come apart ?
We've got to put
The sun back in our hearts
Through the alleyways
The avenues and dreary days
Your schoolyard eyes
Hypnotizing every time
When we kiss in the dark
Emotion tearing us apart
We've got to put
The sun back in our hearts
Down the cinder path
And through the hedge
Climbing up to the window ledge
Throwing lockets to make a scene
I can't explain, you know what I mean
I caught you crying
Trying to hide your tears away
But your crippled smile
Will always give the game away
Are we falling apart ?
Are we just walking in the park ?

You left before the rain came down
December was the only sound
All the leaves fell to the ground
When you went away
It's a crying shame to see
A kiss become a memory
Now i know just what you mean
When you say
Way Above
Where the north winds blow
We will watch out afar
To the valley below
Oh Jacqueline I know (2x)
A pattern of the ways it seems
Thats the way it has to be
Now I know just what you mean
When you say
Way above
Where the north winds blow
We will watch out afar
To the valley below
Oh Jacqueline I know (2x)
The Coven House
Where you now go
It stole our love
Don't you know
Don't you know
Oh Jacqueline don't go
Oh Jacqueline I know
Oh Jacqueline don't go
Oh Jacqueline I know

I walked by the window
And stopped in the light
I stood there watching
The fireflies
Went down to the ocean
In search of a song
Where ever I'm going
That's where I belong
Fireflies, fly on by
You will never, ever see me cry
You won't see my cry
Sand puddled pavements
Appear on the shore
If you ask for nothing
You'll get nothing more
I walked by the window
And stopped in the light
I stood there counting
The fireflies
I'm watching fireflies
. . .

Outside the factory gates
Where I will sit and wait
For you to turn around
And show me there's a way
I am a stranger to the light
Enchanted by the walkers of the night
I stepped into the dark
With all the broken hearts
I've searched the empty streets
Distant and apart
I am a stranger in this life
Haunted by yesterday's desires
And when we meet again you'll know I am to blame
When you see me standing in the rain
They say they can see
What I'm supposed to be
But what is right for them
Don't mean it's right for me
I am a stranger to the light
Enchanted by the walkers of the night
And so the story goes
As I watch from my window
Across the water front
But they will never know
I am a stranger in this life
Haunted by yesterday's desires
. . .

Today, when love has slipped away
That's when I picture you standing on the shore
And all my sorrows, oh how they disappear
And I don't feel so lonely any more
Tomorrow, when it seems so far away
That's when I recall the way it was before
And all my tears, they will turn to sand
And I won't feel so lonely any more
And the light, it keeps on guiding me
Back to the memory
Of when I held you there
Oh when I held you there
When I held you on the shore
Now I don't feel so lonely any more
So long, looks like I'm leaving soon
But I'll be back again, knocking at your door
And all my darkest thoughts, they will fade away
And I won't be so lonely any more
. . .

There's a place where the creatures play
I'm going there at the end of the day
Who knows what I'll find
In the cobwebs of my mind
There a face in a photograph
In the attic beside the maps
Closer to the tide
In the cobwebs of my mind
From the watch house to the marshes
Following the signs to Colwyn Bay
And she'll show me the way
We'll stick together through the thick and thin
Lights go out, that's where I begin
Now I'm lost inside
In the cobwebs of my mind
There's a place where the music plays
I'll meet her there at the end of the day
Who knows what she'll find
In the cobwebs of my mind
When she moves her beauty falls
In the garden the masters call
She knows where I hide
In the cobwebs of my mind
She reads my eyes
. . .

Stay by my side
Let me wander through the darkness of your eyes
the moon it comes, rises like a ghost upon the tide of your sweet smile
and when you hide
where do you hide
what do you do
Rebecca you
You're out of reach
you've built around you I can't breach
there's no way through
Rebecca you
Catch a dream of the silence for the pathways of my mind
when I return all the roads that seem to lead nowhere
will you be there
and when you hide
where do you hide
what do you do
Rebecca you
You're out of reach
you've built around you I can't breach
there's no way through
Rebecca you
And when you hide
where do you hide
what do you do
Rebecca You
You're out of reach
you've built around you I can't breach
there's no way through
Rebecca you
Rebecca you
Rebecca you
Rebecca you
. . .

She'll watch the sky as it fades into black
Walks with the lovers that never came back
The princes and kings
All the beautiful things
And more
She won't wait, she'll never look back
Through the fog where the mirrors have cracked
She slides through a dream
With all her beautiful schemes
And more
She's got a reason to roam with the stars
Watch her go as she sings
Dum dum da da da da
Love is gold, time is a thief
She's the river that runs to the sea
With her arms open wide
Her sorrow, her smile
And more
Still she wanders soaked to the bone
The road she's on, well it won't lead her home
To the place where she cried
For the stranger inside
And more
. . .

Nothing seems right, except for the music at night
A change in the season, it comes like a thorn in my side
Lost in a maze
Lost in a maze
I looked for you, I was invisible too
Sleeping on Sunday, avoiding the pale afternoon
Deep in a dream
Deep in a dream
But nothing seems right
Except for the music at night
When I awoke I saw a face in the smoke
Chilled by the evening, caught up in the undertone
I call your name
I call your name
Out of the blue, that's when you walk in the room
A shift in the darkness, you ask me if I still want you
Of course I do
Of course I do
But nothing seems right
Except for the music at night
Nothing seems right, except for the music at night
A change in the season, it comes like a thorn in my side
Lost in a maze
Lost in a maze
But nothing seems right
Except for the music at night
. . .
