I went looking for someone I left behind
Yeah but no-one just a stranger did I find
I never noticed hadn't seen it as it grew
The void between us where the flame turns blue
Different places yeah but they all look the same
Dreams of faces in the streets devoured by names
I'm in collision with every stone I ever threw
And blind ambition where the flame turns blue
Worlds dismantled hey and all the books unbound
Conversations though we utter not a sound
I heard a rumour I don't know if its true
That you'd meet me where the flame turns blue
So I venture underneath the leaden sky
See the freight train with its one fierce eye
And then I listen as it tears the night into
With a whistle and the flame turns blue
In the morning I will sing
In the morning I will sing
Through the lemon trees the diamonds of light
Break in splinters on the pages where I write
That if I lost you I don't know what I'd do
Burn forever where the flame turns blue
Yeah if I lost you I don't know what I'd do
Burn forever where the flame turns blue
In the morning I will sing
In the morning I will sing

Wash the twilight from my head
Hanging on a brighter thread
Little darling, 'till I see you once again.
Tell the man to fill my cup
Honey I ain't gonna stop
Little darling, 'till I see you once again.
Pinch me if I'm dreaming
I'm some where I've never been-eh
You lead me by my hand into the flame
Just the rain now, goes pitter-pat
And the past, ahhh, what use is that?
Little darling, 'till I see you once again.

Hold on
Hold on to me
Hold on
Hold on to me
Sometimes there's no easy way
Got to cause somebody pain
Watching you
You hit so hard on yourself
Cos you need someone to blame
Oh now
What will you do
Oh now
What will you do
Can't help the way you're feeling
Don't want to leave him so alone
Lisa cries
Her red hair streaming down
Feels like her heart is made of stone

As I'm leaving
A change comes on my eyes
These streets persuading me
With mumbled strange goodbyes
Through the water
Through the rain
To the soul of everything
Throw my heart out on the stones
And I'm almost gone
There's no meaning
In clothes and coffee cups
Cheap hotel furniture
Where silence never stops
Through the water
Through the rain
To the soul of everything
Throw my memories to the wind
And I'm almost gone
And now I'm dreaming
I'm staring at the walls
Cars are frozen now
In late night waterfalls
Through the water
Through the rain
To the soul of everything
Throw my heart out on the stones
And I'm almost
Through the water
Through the rain
To the soul of everything
Wash my heart out on the stones
And I'm almost gone

Three days spent staring at your photograph
Read your letter, made me laugh
But there's a shadow on the path
'Till I know
If your love is real
Cause its not as if alot was said
Falling in and falling out of bed
And now the world's turned on its head
'Till I know
If your love is real
Spent a long time persuading myself
That I don't no one, nobody else
That who I was, I could conceal
I'm in a daydream now
I'm out to lunch
Should it come down to the crunch
I'm wide open for that sucker punch
'Till I know
If your love is real
'Till I know
If your love is real
Spent a long time persuading myself
That I don't no one, nobody else
That I felt all there was to feel
Know if I should live 100 years
I'd never see another face like hers
On stranger sea and brighter shore
Cause I know
That my love is real
Yeah yeah
Woah
. . .

Ever since your fingertips
Ever since your eyes
Talking with the light on
Blue skies
Even If I wanted to
How could I explain
Crashing through my head now this
Tidal wave
All your strangest eyelashes
All your bluest skin
Bring them and I'll meet you in
That room again
Even if I told it true
How could they believe
Crashing in my head now this
Tidal wave
Coming over Waterloo
Dreaming of your hands
Want to run away with you
Foreign lands
Even as I lay with you
Listening to you breathe
Crashing in my head now this
Tidal wave
. . .

Without a word
You set your sights to the sun
When all the world
You put your rights are still so wrong
Pin your heart out on your sleeve
Spouting all that make-believe
From your lips, it seemed it might come true
Falling down the mountainside
With you
The clothes you wore
The people stared
You look so strange
To see you move
Sing vital dance
Is in your veins
Never once afraid to know
What it feels like when you go
Out beyond where logic keeps the view
Falling down the mountainside
With you
Falling down
If you were here
First thing I'd do
Is knock you down
You left me cold
To meet your ghost
All over town
So grind the stone
And spin the wheel
Lock the doors on what you feel
Looking back just like I always knew
Falling down the mountainside
With you
Falling down the mountainside
With you
Falling down the mountainside
With you
Falling down the mountainside
With you
. . .

Weighing that silver
There with your hands
In no position to make demands
Got what you wanted
Oh very nice
But every kiss must have a price
I'm gettin tired of, being denied of
Sayin the same old thing
And these tears ain't gonna mend
these broken wings
Red moon
All that I've witnessed
Hard to believe
Still find it in me to be so naive
Cry on your pillow
Into the night
Cos sayin you're sorry
Won't make it right
I'm gettin tired of, being denied of
Things getting in my way
And if I'm quiet
That's cos there's nothing left to say
Yeah, if I'm quiet
That's cos there's nothing left to say
Red moon
Red moon
Red moon
Red moon

Hear me god, I'm on a level
Mapping silence, spitting skin
Crying, laughing like the devil
Before the might of all that is seen
I raise my head and wake to dream
With a clean pair of eyes
Murdered gold and colors splashing
Down like blood, like flowing hair
Faces melting, airplanes crashing
Before the might of all that is true
I raise my head to dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no right or wrong
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to sweet my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Today I need no commentary
Today I have no need to speak
No explanation necessary
Before the might of all that is real
I turn my head like coldest steel
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no right or wrong
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to fix my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Liquid air, flags that ripple
Tamborine, smoking suns
Love that blinds
Fear that cripples
Before the might of all that is true
I turn my head to dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
Dreaming in the streets that glisten
Dawn that trembles, flesh and grain
Dream it
Sing it out again
Before the might of all that is seen
I raise my head and wake to dream
Before the might of all to come
I turn my head like purest sun
Before the might of all that is true
I raise my head and dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
