If I knew now what I knew then
I'd wonder how not wonder when
There's something going wrong again
With me and mine
It's only ever what it seems
Memories and might have beens
Heaven's scent: the smell of dreams
We'll never find
Tell me... tell me... tell me...
What are you going to do with your life?
What are you going to do with your life?
What are you going to do?
What are you going to be?
What am I going to do?
I'm going to be me be me be me
If I could see what you can see
The sun still shining out of me
I'd be the boy I used to be
When love was blind
I'd let the light back in again
And walk you to the tunnel's end
I'll be yours and maybe then
You'll be mine
Tell me... tell me... tell me...
I will if you will... follow me down
. . .

I wish that you were here
Down amongst the dust
I need someone to help me
You need someone to trust
There's something with these tears
Turning me to rust
I need someone to help me
Yeah I need someone to touch
Give me one more try
And I'll come flaking back to you
I wish that you were here
I wish that it was true
[Chorus]
I can feel the stars shooting through my heart like rain
Leaving on the scars where the pleasure turns to pain
Point me in a light
Bright and shiny in right direction
And then take me home again
Lyrics
Just when you thing it's over
Just when you think it's done
Out of every nowhere
You never see it come
I know the lines are showing
I can't keep them in
Like everybody's story
It's written on the skin
Give me one last try
And I'll make it up to you
Wish that you were here
Wish that I was true
[Chorus]
I wish that you were here
Down amongst my dust
I need someone to help me
You need someone to trust
There's something with these tears
Turning me to rust
I wish that you were here
I wish that it was ours
[Chorus]
... Everything's gonna be all right ...

Let's go and take a starlit drive
To where the shaping of our lives
Had just begun...when we were young
When everything was coming right
In our dreams of love and life
And we could run...into the sun
Get in the car
We're taking a ride
We're looking for stars
We're looking for satellites
Of love
Of love
Changes coming changes gone
We just want to be someone
Behind the tears...behind the tears
Nights and days go on and on
And things are coming out all wrong
And no one hears...and no one hears
Get in the car
We're taking a ride
We're looking for stars
We're looking for satellites
Get in the car
We're taking a ride
You'll be the star
I'll be your satellite
Of love
Of love
Let's go and take a ride
To all those starry nights
We used to fly upon...when we were young
When everything was coming right
In all our dreams of love and life
And we would run...into the sun
Nothing's gonna get me down
. . .

Baby Rain
Lost again
Still waiting for the voices
That don't call my name
Had too many choices
And I missed my aim
No pearls inside the oysters
Just a world
With no answers
We all get life
And take our chances
In the rain...baby rain
In the rain...baby rain
Glad to be
LyricsAlive and still believing
What you said to me
Your love was never leaving
And it comes for free
So what's the use of stealing
From your girl
When she's the answer
And your world
And your chances
In the rain...baby rain
In the rain...baby rain
I've got what you want
When're you going to get me?
Home again
I can hear the voices
Singing out my name
Life is where the choice is
And I've found my aim
Don't need pearls or oysters
Just a world
With all the answers
I've got life
I'll take my chances
In the rain...baby rain
In the rain...baby rain

Bells
High on a hill
History chimes
And you want a new beginning
Tell me
In biro or quill
Your purpose and mine
Prove that our world is spinning
So
Here goes
Nothing better
And
Here's to
Something else
Until tomorrow
But that's another time
It's just another time
It's just some other troubled time
The seed
Grew up a boy
Turned to a man
Is this the world you wanted?
It seems
Under the soil
Over the sand
Not quite the seed I planted
I've seen you
And now
I know better
I've been you
Now I'm
Someone else
Until tomorrow
But that's another time
It's just another time
It's just some other troubled time
Until
Tomorrow
Until...
. . .

It's just a dangerous bend
On a slippery slope
Another rainbow's end
On the highway of hope
It's always next time
Always next time
Always last time
Just get me out of this jam
It's stuck to me like glue
And I can't remember who I am
My memory lost on you
I had things inside my head
And they put me behind them
Though they'd be safe in my head
And now I just can't find them
It's just a trick of the light
And some sleight of hand
Another kiss goodnight
Along the rise of man
And it's the last time
It's the last time
Till the next time
So get me out of this jam
It's stuck to me like glue
And I can't remember who I am
My memory lost on you
It's gone and that's too bad
The best thing that I ever had
Had the whole world in my mouth
Ate it up and spat it out
. . .

Show me the hole I can fall in
To the ground to the ground to the ground
Speak to me speak and give my calling
'Cause I'm going down going down going down
It's only lies and alibis
Alibis and lies
We know something dies every day
I've lost or I've forgotten
More than I'll ever know
Born just a someone with some kind of nothing
I let it go let it go let it go
It's only lies and alibis
Alibis and lies
We know something dies every day
Here it comes the morning sun
Another hit and run
And we're just the ones in the way
Coming down with you
Give me a hope I can lean on
'cause I'll bend in the calmest winds
Give me one more than dreams for me to dream on
My jury's in coming in coming in
. . .

When it all blows over
Can we start again?
When we've both grown older
Will you love me then?
Say you'll love me then
You never had to tell me
I already knew
The last time you held me
There was only you
It was only ever you
Though every change
As I turned the tide
Through all my games
You were there by my side
When it all blows over
Can we start again
When we've both grown older
Will you love me then?
Say you'll love me then
Will you love me then?
Say you'll love me then
Did you love me then...?

It's fools like us
Always fooled
By the bright side of life
Then life on the cool
How does it turn?
How does it turn?
Into the dying embers
From a love that burned
On it's way to your heart somehow
On it's way to your heart somehow
On it's way to your heart somehow
They're falling again
My shining stars
From out of your heaven
And into my heart
Ribbons and chains
Ribbons and chains
Tie us together
And keep us apart
Got to get to your heart somehow
Got to get to your heart somehow
Got to get to your heart somehow
If I could be someone
Someone better than me
I would be that someone
Who's still waiting waiting to be free
It's always fools like us
Always burned
On the dying embers
Of a love that's turned
On it's way from your heart somehow
On it's way from your heart somehow
On it's way from your heart somehow
On it's way to your heart somehow
Time is on our side
