Oh when she talks everyone listens
She casts a spell, she's a magician
She says she's a saint but I just don't know
Oh I told you so, Oh I told you so

She walks in a line and everyone follows
A promise so fine but just for tomorrow
She says that's ok but I just don't know
Oh I told you so, Oh I told you so

Yes I told you, I told you
I told you, I told you so
Yes I told you, I told you
I told you, I told you so

When she gets home and nobody follows
Alone in her shell she dreams of tomorrow
She says she's ok but I just don't know
Oh I told you so, Oh I told you so

Yes I told you, I told you
I told you, I told you so
Yes I told you, I told you
I told you, I told you so

Oh when she talks everyone listens
She casts a spell, she's a magician
She says she's a saint but I just don't know
Oh I told you so, Oh I told you so
Oh I told you so, oh I told you so

We invent new words
Just, so that we can use them
There's shadows hanging over me now
It's on the leyline waiting

When the magic comes
And the shit subsides
Then you're on your way
And our ship sets sail
To the harbour cries
To the crossroads where

You make it sound so right
But for the kiss I'm missing
You're right it's hot and cold now
And that becomes our distance

When the magic comes
And the shit subsides
Then you're on your way
And our ship sets sails
To the harbour cries
On a leyline where

If I could find it in a shop
You know I'd have to buy it
Some people buy a church
But moribund will find them

When the magic comes
And the shit subsides
Then you're on your way
And our ship sets sail
To the harbour cries
To the crossroads where

Bus stop stretching out before
All along the High Street wall
'Til your eyes can't see no more
Early evening in sunlight
Turns the world to shine so bright
Like a blind man given sight
Like a million neon lights

This old town won't let me go
It's got my feet, it's in my soul
There is no going back it's just forward now
The silver screen it sees my gaze
I try to look beyond the haze
I could forgive it, everything is true
Just take me with you too

Out upon the empty floor
The lone dancer spinning on
Throwing caution to the wall
There's a sign behind the door
Says for dancers only sure
And the lone dancer she knows
She can never be lonely

This old town tells you to stay
Then you know you ain't getting away
There is no going back it's just forward now
These haunted halls play melodies
So sweet and tender on life's breeze
I could forgive it everything is true
Just take me with you too

There's a sign behind the door
Says for dancers only sure
And the lone dancer she knows
She can never be lonely

This old town tells you to stay
Then you know you ain't getting away
There is no going back it's just forward now
These haunted halls play melodies
So sweet and tender on life's breeze
I could forgive it everything is true
Just take me with you too

I let go of myself so I feel bad
All I do is wait so I feel sad

My mind slips away and I'm wondering how
It all came to this, can I go now

I'm the man in the middle
D'you know how that feels
The one in the middle you know
And I don't really love you
I've been here before
I've been in the middle you see

I don't have to go, so I stay home
Wondering why I'm feeling so bad

Don't you think that you, you could be strong
'Cos I'm not something to share
And I'm on my own
(Oh yes I am)

I'm the man in the middle
D'you know how that feels
The one in the middle you know
And I don't really love you
I've been here before
I've been in the middle you see

Mrs Jones she rides again
Mr Jones he knows
Mrs Jones she rides so many
Pulling at their clothes
Looking down her nose

Hey, I just got over you
The world's a bigger place
A better place than you
And hey, I've just found my head
Ahead in a bigger space
Ahead in a better place

She knows she rides she'll miss you
If she rides it fast
She marked your card but she'll miss you
You hoped you'd always last
Then you mark it fast my friend
Make your own way out
Your strategy is so hard to see
But your intentions aren't in doubt
Your intentions aren't in doubt

Hey, I just got over you
The world's a bigger place
Ahead in a better place

Hey, I just got over you
The world's a bigger place
A better place than you
And hey, I've just found my head
Ahead in a bigger space
Ahead in a better place

When you're Twenty-One and North of the border the chance is
The Military Man will come and offer a hand and advances

Go to sea boy
Go to sea boy, go to sea

With the shipyards sunk on the Clyde
And the sea the junk life is dangerous
With a pocket of woes in this perishing hole it's so obvious

Go to sea boy, go to sea boy
Go to sea boy, go to sea

Then you'll sail away and we'll teach you a trade
That's for life
It's only killing but there's nobody willing
So we're asking on the Clyde

When you're Twenty-One and North of the border the chance is
You'll sail away to a life in the dirt then advances

These days I find I'm picking up all of it
These days I'm tired and low
And you don't care what you find
You're messing up all of it
These days you're tired

Then you forget the time to be
Free you walk in the line
Then you forget the time to be
Free you walk in the light's on

These days you find you're picking up all of it
These days you're tired and low
And you don't care what you find
You're losing all touch of it
These days you're tired

Then you forget the time to be
Free you walk in the line
Then you forget the time to be
Free you walk in the light's on

That's the train on which I'll ride
I will look for a different sky
And you'll never find me down so low again
That's the plane on which I'll fly
I will wake in a different time
And you'll never find me down so low again

I'm looking for someone to lift me up
I'm looking for someone to fill my cup
And you'll never find me down so low again

If I try I might see
All the things that I can be
And you'll never find me down so low again
For all the angels for all the world
This is my truth so you've been told
And you'll never find me down so low again

I'm looking for someone to lift me up
I'm looking for someone to fill my cup
So you'll never find me down so low again
I'm looking for someone to lift me up
I'm looking for someone to fill my cup
So you'll never find me down so low again
And you'll never, never, never, never, never
never, never, never
And you'll never find me down so low again

I'll check my hair, and get my shoes
See my face, it's nothing new
There's no-one here when there's no-one there
So much you go for but no-one cares
Don't get me high don't get me fooled
Don't get me wrong on nights with you
The locks are cold when there's no-one there
I'd make them a bit stronger but we don't care

Ba ba ba ba, ba ba baa

You still don't care but if you had to choose
Something so small could break this in two
People like to say "people get stronger"
Just before they fall out of their heads
"Breaking up can make things seem much longer"
Tell you "what you give is what you get"

Ba ba ba ba, ba ba baa

And what you need is what we share
When we go home and it's just not there

Ba ba ba ba, ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba baa

Breaking up inside her make-up case
She's knows it's been a desperate day
Making pointless phone calls to someone
Who's never there, they don't answer anyway

'Cos only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Could feel that way
And only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Makes her escape and fades away

Writing countless letters to her God
She knows he's there night and day
Better than the friends that change and bend
Then ain't there, then they run away

'Cos only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Could feel that way
Only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Makes her escape then fades away

Please make something happen
Make it happen just for Jane
Make it happen in the sunshine
Make it happen even in the pouring rain

'Cos only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Could feel that way
Only the loneliest girl in the whole-wide world
Makes her escape then fades away, fades away

Mr Brown, you promised us the earth
So you can't let us down
So for what it's worth
Mr Brown
It's just the last one there
Said he didn't think it very fair
It's up to you to turn it round
So come on Mr Brown, Mr Brown
Mr Brown, come on, come on now Mr Brown

And when the whole world's screaming, scheming, cheating
Mr Brown won't care
He won't be lying, stealing, dealing, deceiving
Mr Brown's most fair

But now he's not there
Because it's you who wears the crown
But one day and it won't be fair
They will come and cut you down, Mr Brown
And we all know it's true
There's no-one who could follow you
There's no-one who can touch you
And one day we'll be after you Mr Brown

And when the whole world's screaming, scheming, cheating
Mr Brown won't care
He won't be lying, stealing, dealing, deceiving
Mr Brown's most fair
Now Mr Brown, you promised us the earth
So you can't let us down
So for what it's worth
Mr Brown Mr Brown, come on, come on
Mr Brown yeah

Like a good boy when I got home from school
I did my work for you
Just a boy with my head in the clouds
And I made it all come true
And I got two lovers
Jumping in and out of my bed
One hates the other
And the other wished the other was dead

Like a good boy I served my soul
And I kept my peace with the world
I got the sense when the time was sent
Then I got my turn

And I got two lovers
Jumping in and out of my bed
One hates the other
And the other wished the other was dead
Two la la la lovers
Two la la la lovers
I'm coming home

When I was a boy at school
I did my work when I got home
Took the chance when I saw you
Now I'm like a Rolling Stone

And I got two lovers
Jumping in and out of my bed
One hates the other
And the other wished the other was dead
Two lovers
Jumping in and out of my bed
One hates the other
And the other wished the other was dead
Two la la lovers, two la la lovers
Two la la la lovers, two la la la lovers
I got two lovers

Daylight wake me and it awakes me with you
All of the faces and all of the places are you
Getting home and feeling glad
Feeling love and love is mad

So daylight wakes me
Daylight wakes me

Daylight wake me now I'm ready to come
All of the faces and all of the places are done
Getting home and feeling high
Feeling love and love is life

So daylight wakes me
Daylight wakes me

Holey moley, (???????)
The party's leaving, the music's down
There's just us waiting, the wind is howling
The birds are breeding, the men are scowling
And no-ones got a clue
But it's a lifetime sentence loving you

It gets you down when you come on over
'cos drink to drink and the four leaf clover
And all that's left is too much bother
You love her deep but you like your mother
And no-ones got a clue
But it's a lifetime sentence loving you

Come on listen just this one time
I'm assisting, one to another
That Jimmy Miller was Jimmy Wonder
We like to listen now, Jimmy's under
And no-ones got a clue
But it's a lifetime sentence loving you

For Jimmy Miller and Mrs Mills, Arthur Miller (????)
Windy Miller and the (??)hunt
But Jimmy Miller's got a lot of Front
And all of this is true
I've got a lifetime sentence loving you
And all of this is true
I've got a lifetime sentence loving you
A lifetime sentence loving you
A lifetime sentence loving you
I've got a lifetime sentence loving you...
