Oh what a beautiful morning,
Oh what a beautiful day,
Oh what a beautiful morning,
Everything is going my way.

You go and I'll be okay
I can dream the rest away
It's just a little touch of fate, it'll be okay
It sure takes its precious time, but it's got rights and so have I

I turn my head up to the sky
I focus one thought at a time
I do not let the little thieves under my tightly buttoned sleeve
It couldn't be a longer time, I feel like I am walking blind
I have no arrival time
There are no legible signs x2

I like the way that you talk
I like the way that you walk
It's hard to recreate such an individual gait

You wait your turn in the queue
You say your "Sorry"s and "Thank you"s
I don't think you're ever
A hundred percent in the room
You're not in the room x2

Deepest of the dark nights
Here lies the highest of highs
Neopolitan Dreams, stretching out to the sea

You wait your turn in the queue
You say your "Sorry"s and "Thank you"s
I don't think you're ever
A hundred percent in the room
You're not in the room x2

Well sitting on this bed I may as well be on the highway
Ocean bursts its banks and all the waters goin my way
Even though youre poison babe I wouldnt even hesitate
This lie inside your head inside your little heart now

Well listen nothin fits, nothin rings a bell in my head
Lightin up the fire and the citys painted blood red
Even though youre poison babe I wouldnt even hesitate
Just let it go I just I gotta get away now

I was so jealous, I nearly ran away, I was so jealous, I really couldnt say
What was wrong with me, I had some bad disease, I was so sick for you babe

Well I didnt mean to break it I was just having a look
Oh I know I shouldnt touch I shouldve never picked it up
Even though youre poison babe I wouldnt even hesitate
Just let me go I just I got another chance now

CHORUS

So underneath the street lights, oh I found your broken pen knife
No I dont wanna ask what, what youre doin by the wayside, oh

CHORUS x2

There I was
Sitting on the top of the world
In a coin laundry
Well I could have been royalty
Sitting in the palace like a queen

Do you have a dollar?
Do you have a dollar for me?
Have you got a house on a hill
And a bed for three?

Oh do you have a story
Do you have a story for me?
Do you know the one where
We'll all live happily

Do you, do you
Do you, do you

So now I'm here
Sitting on the edge
Throwing these stones to the long lost friends
I could have been a common theif
Sitting in the dirt quite happily

Do you have a dollar?
Do you have a dollar for me?
Maybe just an hour or two
And a pot of tea

Have you got a memory
Have you got a memory for me?
Tell me about the days when
You were seventeen

Do you, do you
Do you, do you

Do you have a dollar?
Do you have a dollar for me?
Have you got a little old house
And a lemon tree?

Do you have a reason?
Do you have a reason for me?
Can I be the girl that you met in a coin laundry?

Can I be the girl that you met
Can I be the girl that you met
Can I be the girl that you met in the coin laundry?

Oh can I be the girl that you met
Can I be the girl that you met
Can I be the girl that you met in the coin laundry?

I left the keys in the car
I left the door ajar
I didn't want to be alone

These are the days and the nights
of these sweet humbling heights
and I know it used to be home

Whisk me away
i'll be yours for a day
in heavenly fields which we roam

A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
What are you doing?
What you doing, what ya doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're too clean white love.
I give my heart on the morning of November 6th
Oh, everybody's looking for a fix

Hey...

Sell me a sign
I'll cut the telephone line
Just to keep the quotations alive

Oh you're bleeding me dry
but the feeling is blind
and I know you're looking divine.

Sell me it straight
Oh, it might be too late
Keep on breaking the rules

Oh...
A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
What are you doing?
What you doing, what ya doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're too clean white love.
I give my heart on the morning of November 6th
Oh, everybody's looking for a fix

Oh.... Oh a oh....

And this love is diseased
there's a cure
I need that medicine
to get to the core

Remember this place
It's left to the fates
but it's kind to be cruel

Oh...
A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
What are you doing?
What you doing, what ya doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're too clean white love.
What are you doing?
What you doing, what ya doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

A woah ah oh you're my clean white love
A woah ah oh you're too clean white love.
What are you doing?
What you doing, what ya doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

In my heart on the morning of November 6th
Oh, everybody's looking for a fix

Ohhh... ah ohhh......

Come lay down in the water,
We're all sons and daughters,
Rest your head on the altar, oh,
Come lay down in the water

Piroutte, single step
Won't you spin me around the room,
Like a marionette?

And lonely maestro
Spin me real slow,
I just need something to get me through
The thick of it.

I have everything, from time to time (x2)

Come lay down in the water,
We're all sons and daughters,
Rest your head on the altar, oh,
Come lay down in the water

These silent offerings,
They're only causing
Oh darling I was never free, for the taking

We had everything from time to time
Yeah,
We had everything (x2)

Come lay down in the water,
We're all sons and daughters,
Rest your head on the altar, oh,
Come lay down in the water

Yeah, we had everything

Come lay down in the water,
We're all sons and daughters,
In the water

I'd like a flat white, a day of pale skies
And a real kiss

Inside an old house, by the seaside
You can take off my blouse

but take it from me;
I'm disorderly and you'd be off better
writing someone else your love letter
cause I'm always on the road

And of course I wanna know you better
But you know the way it goes

Well a telegram's no substitute
when it comes to living proof

oh go on
and write somebody else,
oh somebody else,
oh anybody...

Your love letter.

(shoosha shoosha shoosha)
(shoosha)

So I need a flight home
There's no day to argue
no I need my pillow

Well inside an old house, by the seaside
You can take off my blouse
But take it from me;

I'm disorderly and you'd be off better
Writing someone else your love letter
cause I'm always on the road

(shoosha shoosha shoosha)

And of course I wanna know you better
But you know the way it goes

(shoosha shoosha shoosha)

And a telegram's no substitute
When it comes to living proof

(shoosha shoosha shoosha)

Go on and write somebody else,
somebody else
somebody else a love letter

Oh, living in that chest is a big, big heart
one that I've known from the very start

Living in that chest is a big, big heart
one that I've known from the very start

Oh, living in that chest is a big, big heart
one that I've known from the very start

Oh, living in that chest is a big, big heart
one that I've known from the very start

Go on, write somebody else your love letter
‘Cause I'm always on the road

And of course, of course I wanna know you better
But you know the way it goes.

Once again I leave my grave
Dirt and daisies hit the pave
No sooner than I have turned
I hear the devil cooking up a new storm

My world ends on a regular basis
Yeah I fed quick and lonesome places
No sooner that I am dead
I feel the ravens tugging at my hair

Oh! Hark!
Do you a hear a voice like velvet through the night sky
Do you hear the fickle hand of fate at my side
And all those that god has sinned with hope in his stride

And watch out
Watch for them camouflaged and crouched in the shadows
Oh they couldn't hold a candle up to you
But they stand as tall as you in broad daylight too
Oh! Hark!

Once again I leave my grave
And dirt and daisies hit the pave
But no sooner than I am dead
I feel the ravens tugging at my hair

Once again I leave my grave
Like a bird out of its cage
No sooner that I have won
I feel the storm clouds plotting against the sun

Oh! Hark!
Do you a hear a voice like velvet through the night sky
Do you hear the fickle hand of fate at my side
And all those that god has sinned with hope in his stride

And watch out
Watch for them camouflaged and crouched in the shadows
Oh they couldn't hold a candle up to you
But they stand as tall as you in broad daylight too
Oh! Hark!

Oh! Hark!
Do you a hear a voice like velvet through the night sky
Do you hear the fickle hand of fate at my side
And all those that god has sinned with hope in his stride

And watch out
Watch for them camouflaged and crouched in the shadows
Oh they couldn't hold a candle up to you
But they stand as tall as you in broad daylight too
Oh! Hark!

You see these red wine lips?
I didn't dream up this
Out on suburban curbs
I'm always restless first

But when the truth is told;
We're all dreamers you know
I've always wanted more
than I could ever hold

And I know that it's a fine line
But I know that I've got time

Oh, how could a steeple made of ceiling wax
Ever need fall down?

Remember we had it all
Every belle and ball
But just all ever
I wanted more

And well I sure got that
Yeah I killed that cat
But I hope one fine day
I'll stop looking back

And I know that it's a fine line
Oh I know it's a high wire

Oh, how could a steeple made of innocence
Oh golden arch
Burning heart

Oh, steeple made of ceiling wax
Ever need fall down?

You see these red wine lips?
I didn't dream up this
Out on suburban curbs
I'm always restless first

But when the truth is told;
We're all dreamers you know
I've always wanted more
Than I could ever hold

And I know that it's a fine line
Oh I know it's a high wire

Oh, how could a steeple made of innocence
Oh golden arch
Burning heart

Oh, steeple made of ceiling wax
Ever need fall down?

I called out across the sea
‘Normality! Can you hear me?'
But there came back no reply
I hung my head and started to cry

Well I am the shape of a lonely soldier
Oh, I am the shape of a single structure
But even the bravest Lions,
They need a sidekick
I know that even the tallest kings,
They need a sidekick

There's no place like the place we used to go
There's no friends like the friends we used to know
like the friends we used to know

If I could dig a tunnel I would
Oh, I'd network under your neighbourhood
Oh, We'd meet there all through the night
Drink and smoke and laugh and fight

I would see the Luna, love
You look like the moon above

There's no place like the place we used to go
There's no friends like the friends we used to know
like the friends we used to know

There's no place like the place we used to go
There's no friends like the friends we used to know

There's no place like the place we used to go
There's no friends like the friends we used to know
like the friends we used to know
friends we used to know
friends we used to know

Stevie was a connoisseur
Everybody wanted to be her
She chose her friends as carefully as she chose her words
She was so sure about it all

Oh Stevie was a hero once
Had all the things I'd never touch
She wrote in sterling silver with a ballpoint pen
Cold blooded chameleon

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
You're a god to me

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
You're a god to me

Stevie was an ice maiden
Not sure really worth saving
Alcatraz has nothing on her after all this time
Still I didn't search behind those eyes

Oh Stevie where are you going to
Oh you're as tight lipped as a bottle all screwed
If I had the chance to peer inside your mind
Give up your mystery, why think twice

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
You're a god to me

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
You're a god to me

Tea-leaves in the cup
You're a good friend of mine
How the sober are
Thirsty for the sweet wine

Now that Stevie has locked her keys in her mind
Got to open up, lay herself on the line (lay herself on the line)

Tea-leaves in the cup
You're a good friend of mine
How the sober are
Thirsty for the sweet wine

Now that Stevie has locked her keys in her mind (in her mind)
Got to open up, lay herself on the line (lay herself on the line)

Tea-leaves in the cup
You're a good friend of mine
How the sober are
Thirsty for the sweet wine

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
You're a god to me

Oh Stevie, oh Stevie
Why can't you see
Oh give in to me

I lost everything I thought I had,
I lost everything that made me sad,
but nothing is nothing and I know that,
nothing is nothing and I ain't glad.

Well I'm on the road for the book of truths,
I'm on the search for silver loot,
the maps are drawn all through the skies,
I see the signs in strangers eyes.

And all the animals are gone,
all the animals are gone,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
You are a good sign,
that now is a good time,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
you are a good sign,
that now is a good time.

Saddle up your palomino,
Grab it all we'll go to Rio,
Nothing is nothing and I know that,
Nothing is nothing and I ain't glad.

Let the storms all through your clothes,
let the ink run down your nose,
a whole life for you to see,
maybe that's how it's supposed to be.

And all the animals are gone,
all the animals are gone,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
You are a good sign,
that now is a good time,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
you are a good sign,
that now is a good time.

And all the animals are gone,
all the animals are gone,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
You are a good sign,
that now is a good time,
Woah-oh, woah-oh,
you are a good sign,
that now is a good time.

Sometimes your love
It's so pretty I just wanna sink in
And sometimes your heart
Well, it's so pretty I just wanna live there
Well I wish I could bottle it up and breathe it back like Valium

And sometimes your heart it's so pretty
I just wanna live there
So when I find a Scientist to help me
And if I meet the maker
Of all the universe
I'll ask him why we're here and what we're here for
And I'll tell them all the stories
About our little world

(Well I've been waiting)
(Well I've been waiting)

Sometimes your love is so quiet I don't even need to speak
Sometimes your heart is so loud I can't even hear the beat
Well I wish I could bottle it up and breathe it back like Valium
Sometimes your love is so quiet I don't even need to speak

Well I'll find a Scientist to help me
And if I meet the maker
Of all the universe
I'll ask him why we're here and what we're here for
And I'll tell them all the stories
About our little world

(Well I've been waiting)
(Oh, I've been waiting)
(Oh, I've been waiting)
(Oh, I've been waiting)

Well I'll try to bottle you up
Well I'll try to bottle you up
Well I'll try to bottle you up and breathe you back
like Valium

Coffee, Coffee, you're my heroine,
You open my eyes better than anyone,
When I've done all the things that I want to do,
Make sure I'm buried next to somebody I'd like to talk to,
Oh, she lives again.

Well, Esmeralda, you're my heroine,
The way she dances, cooler than anyone,

Oh, she lives again.

Édith Piaf, now she's my heroine,
A bolder sparrow there has never been,

Oh, she lives again.

Hey Charlie, O' Charlie, you're my heroine,
Technically a he, but he is quite feminine,
When I've done all the things that I want to do,
Make sure I'm buried next to somebody that likes to argue,
Oh, she lives again.

And Little Red Rider, now she's my heroine,
A fiercer shade of red, I've never seen,
When I've sung all the songs that I want to sing,
Make sure you hold onto the lady with the blue ring,
Oh, she lives again.

First sign of spring, oh, you're my heroine,
You left my _______ high, higher than anyone,
So when I've sung all the songs that I want to sing,
___________________________________________,
Oh, she lives again.

Do you know that I spend my days,
walking the streets and lanes,
looking through window panes,
in and out of quaint cafes.

Me and myself,
we have an ongoing war,
there is an ongoing love affair,
giving up, keeping score.

Well I hope that we find each other,
before I lose myself,
I hope that you get to me,
before my own world does.

See, me and myself,
we have an ongoing war,
there is an ongoing love affair,
giving up, keeping score.

And time means nothing at all,
our minds are stronger than we give them credit for,
Distance means nothing at all.
