It's up in my heart when it skips a beat (skips a beat)
Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I don't want you now
When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
From this pain I just can't disguise
Its gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I dont want you now
Oh yeah
Ohhh Ohhhhh
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I dont want you now

Shut the bedroom window in the morning
Go to the shop, make plans to be leaving
In the morning
Thought I was sleeping, it was just a dream
An ally cat chewing on dead leaves
In the morning
Out of the dark and into the light
When the morning comes I will be alright
When I leave I try not to wake her
Tiana toast to yesterday's capers
In the morning
She wrote my name on a red telephone box
When I got there she'd already rubbed it off
In the morning
Out of the dark and into the light
When the morning comes I will be alright
And all this time I've watched it change
But it's still the same
In the morning
In the morning
In the morning
. . .

Every day I recognize
What's deceased and what's alive
But don't repeat what I just said
Until boulders turn to lead
Then all the tales will be told
Whilst you and I are in the cold
But don't think this is the end
Cos it's just begun my friend
And when it's done
And all this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on
For every tear cried in shame
There'll be someone else to blame
And every crime that I commit
There'll be a punishment to fit
But I'd accept what's coming round
If I could only lose this sound
That's been ringing in my ears
And tormenting me for years
When it's done
And all of this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on
And when it's done
And all of this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on

Don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To follow your heart
Or gaze at the stars
To stare at the night
To the clear daylight
Don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To feel sorrow or shame
As you walk in the rain
Do I love you?
Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you
So don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To be caught in the act
Numbered and wrecked
Put in your place
Made to feel like a fake
Don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To be untouched by the time
Think you're one of the kind
Do I love you?
Yes I love you or i wouldn't tell you
So don't think you're the first
Don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To dance with the light
From the meak to the might
As the birds in the trees
Sing their sweet melodies
Don't think you're the first
In the whole universe
To hear a thousand violins
As the trial begins
Do I love you?
Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you
So don't think you're the last
To be tied to the mast
While you watch from afar
As your world falls apart
You hang on for help
But the rest help themselves
Don't think you're the last
To be tied to the past
While you future's controled
While the present untold
Do I love you?
Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you
So don't think you're the first
. . .

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
. . .

A secret kiss
Reminded me of what I miss
Some kind of forgotten bliss
On this summers eve
Though the seasons deceive
Curled up by honesty
You still make me believe
Is this the rock
That your daring me to cross
Down the river to the docks
That's where we'll meet
Where the pale .... creeps
Into her majesty
You still make me believe
So far away
So far away
Can't get away
So far away
But that's alright
But that's alright
Jewels and pearls
And all the wonders of the world
Mean nothing until I return
In time for tea
Sit on my settee
Lost in my memories
You still make me believe
You make me believe
You make me believe
You make me believe
. . .

I, I look into her eyes
Saw through her disguise
But never realised
That we were longing to be free
Runaway to sea
Well that could never be
Goodbye don't say goodbye
I'd rather die
Than say goodbye
Once so very long ago
Was when I loved you so
If only I had known
That I was blinded by my fate
I traded love for hate
Now I just sit and wait
Goodbye don't say goodbye
I'd rather die
Than say goodbye
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
Goodbye don't say goodbye
I'd rather die
Than say goodbye
Goodbye don't say goodbye
I'd rather die

Morning comes darkness drops
Upon this day a shadow falls
Silence walks through the halls
Since I've been gone, gone, gone
A hundred years from today
Lamplights ablaze? paves my way
Till Jesus saves my early grave
I will be gone, gone, gone
Drop the anchor lift my heart
From stem to stern I'm torn apart
Mount my horse? pack my cart?
Tomorrow I'm gone, gone, gone
Seek the hull? leave the deck
Silver moon silhouette
In due time you will forget
That I am gone, gone, gone
I will be gone, gone, gone
Since I've been gone, gone, gone
Tomorrow I'm gone, gone, gone

I had a girl her name was Leizah
She had only one desire
To walk the cobbled streets alone
Heading anywhere but home
With Crowley as her close companion
His diaries went hand in hand with
All the men that she has known
She leaves their silver but keeps their gold
So lawyers, doctors please beware
Of that girl with wavy hair
For she will cut you down to size
Reveal the truth behind your disguise
Leizah
Just passed by yer
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Leizah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked
The city slips as she's arriving
Tongue tied and twisted was her timing
Her eyes are glazed in deep despair
Those crocodile tears they don't care
Dont turn your back cos she'll be gone
Chasing shadows in the sun
All along the dusty road
Where she goes well we'll never know
And everytime I think of Leizah
I break down and I start crying
Although she tore me apart
There's still a place for that girl in my heart
Leizah
Just passed by yer
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Leizah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked
. . .

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.

His family taught him right from wrong
With local tales and children's songs
Sunday school was his shelter
With his friends Joe and Walter
Now those days seem far away
An empty swing where he once played
Now Bill's grown so fat and bold
He never thought that he'd grow old
And everyday when he gets the train
Looks out the window and thinks in vain
If I could only be that boy again
His sales job it gets him down
Same old faces, same old sounds
Heart attacks, orthopaedic backs
Documents and labelled racks
His wife can't stand the sight of him
With his routine glass of gin
She makes his lunch of processed ham
And waits in for the meter man
And everyday when he gets the train
Looks out the window and thinks in vain
If I could only be that boy again
If he could be that boy again
Another day, another gin
His kids don't even notice him
Something different about his face
His happy smile seems out of place
His family gathered round for tea
Eyes fixed on their new telly
A news flash came, then it said
Bill McCai was just found dead
No more windows, no more trains
Hung himself out in the rain
Now he'll never be that boy again
And we say...
Bye bye Bill McCai
Bye bye Bill McCai
Bye bye Bill McCai

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 ?

Something inside of me
Feels like I'll be wanting you forever
There'll never be another century
There's no time to think about the weather
When there's something inside of me
Something inside of me-e-e
Something inside of me
And now I can't look back
The invisible invasion
It's like a stranger strangled on the moor
Into the void for now I'm gone
Five in the morning I'll be knocking at your door
With something inside of me
With something inside of me-e-e
Something inside of me
And now I can't look back
Oh please don't come illuse
I know you think I'm bulletproof
Can't you see that it's hurting me?
What do you think I'm supposed to be?
When something inside of me
Feels like I'll be wanting you forever
There'll never be another century
There's no time to think about the weather
When there's something inside of me
Something inside of me-e-e
Something inside of me
. . .

Something
Something's happening to me
Someone
Someone I've got to be
Feels like I was someone else
But you know
You only lose yourself
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Shadows
Shadows on the wall
Nightcry
All around me it calls
Feels like I was someone else
But you know
You only lose yourself
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Something
Something's happening to me
Magic
It's as black as the sea
Feels like I was someone else
Now I know
You only lose yourself
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Being somebody else
Being somebody else

Jane, she knows she has to stay
Face the world all alone
The square, it is empty today
All the birds, they have flown
They've gone south for the winter
She's got nowhere to go
Talks but nobody hears her
When all the birds have flown
Back for the bread and pavement
Lonely lustered unknown
Now there's nothing left for her
All the birds, they have flown
They've gone south for the winter
She's got nowhere to go
Talks but nobody hears her
When all the birds have flown
Jane, she knows she has to stay
Face the world all alone
The square, it is empty today
All the birds, they have flown
They've gone south for the winter
She's got nowhere to go
Talks but nobody hears her
When all the birds have flown
When all the birds have flown
When all the birds have flown

Only see you in the summertime
When the weather's fine
You disappear when the cold wind blows
Creep inside my mind
Then I realize� (x2)
There's no one waiting for (?)
The wish we made by our window
Never left my side
Saw you walk across the lonely tracks
Far beyond my eye
Rode the ? from The Golden Bough
To the mountainside
I watched you running with the buttercups
In a field of lies
. . .

She sits on the bed, she combs her hair
And waits for the telephone to ring
They just liked a day in a hotel room
Her mother's waiting on the line
"Where have you been?" she said
"We thought you might be dead;
How could you be so unkind?
What is on your mind?"
Her dad caught the man that took that girl
I saw it on the news
"Oh mother, got to go, you're worrying
And Michael's coming back soon."
She sits on the bed, she combs her hair
But Michael never came back

Hear the cry as the city weeps
People moving through the street
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Working hard to make it pay
Working hard to make their way
But don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
Passed the statue where the waters flow
Million faces that I'll never know
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Boats are leaving for another land
Watch it slipping through my hands
But don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
Hear the cry as the city weeps
People looking but no-one sees
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Like the actor in the film I saw
Had enough but wanted more
And don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
. . .

Everybody's talking at me
I can't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
People stopping staring
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes
Backing off of the North East wind
Sailing on summer breeze
And skipping over the ocean like a stone
I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Backing off of the North East wind
Sailing on a summer breeze
And skipping over the ocean like a stone
Everybody's talking at me
I can't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind

Oh, where did you go?
Waiting by the rocks
Stories never told
When you cried out loud
You never made a sound
Away from the town
And far from the crowd
Gold, silver and gold
Waiting by the rocks
Shivering cold
Like Miranda said
Life's not for the dead
Away from the sound
And far from the crowd
Oh, where did you go?
Waiting by the rocks
Stories never told
One forgotten day
Sadly passed away
Into the ground
And far from the crowd
Far from the crowd
Far from the crowd
Far from the crowd
. . .

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
. . .

Well I lost her a year ago
She told me that she'd never go
Now I hear her singing in the breeze
Some promises you just can't keep
No safe no soul could ever fill this hole
Cos I'm down on my knees
Return her to me
Well the sun, sea and sky
They're like a load on my weary eye
And now my heart has turned to dust
I can't go on but I know I must
She comes to me in my silver sleep
And she's haunting my dreams
Return her to me
Return her to me
Return her to me
Return her to me
On the street where we once walked
Like all two lovers, we kissed as we talked
I can't escape this memory
She's in every face I see
Her ghost it cries in the back of my mind
And I'm down on my knees
Haunting my dreams
I'm begging you please
Return her to me
Return her to me
Return her to me
Return her to me
Return her to me...

Zoom zoom goes the monkey to the moon
Zoom zoom goes the monkey to the moon
High high goes the lion in the sky
Zoom zoom goes a monkey to the moon
Watch that ape man climb
Sure has a really good time
Too proud of his primate soul
And the powers that he can't control
Never worked in a factory
Happy swinging from tree to tree
And then
Zoom zoom went the monkey to the moon
Zoom zoom went the monkey to the moon
High high goes the lion in the sky
Zoom zoom goes the monkey to the moon
The king of all the cows
Is honest as the day is long
But the reason won't seem so clear
When you're watching him disappear
Never worked in a factory
Happy swinging from tree to tree
And then zoom zoom
Never worked in a factory
Happy swinging from tree to tree
And then zoom zoom
Zoom zoom
Zoom zoom
Save me a place in outer space
Won't you save me a place in outer space
Save me a place in outer space
Won't you save a place in outer space
Save me a place in outer space
Won't you save a place in outer space

I've got something to tell you
But I can't find the words
I could have sworn that I had told you
You said you never heard
It was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
Just you and me
I had so much to say
But my mouth it went dry
For my thoughts were on display
I've laid down and died
It was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
Just you and me
I've got something to show you
But my actions let me down
All the words I had to tell you
Were nowhere to be found
Oh, it was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
It was nothing
Just you and me

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

Simon Diamond sold his soul
Changed his name by deed pole
Started out as Simon Russel
Lived his life inside a nutshell
He couldn't take the public scorn
Changed from human to plant form
Now he's swapped his legs for roots
His arms and soil are in cahoots
What will become of Simon Diamond
He can water himself
but can't change the climate
What will become of Simon Diamond
He can water himself
but can't change the climate
That'll do (That'll Do) *Repeat x 17 to fade*

Morning comes darkness drops
Upon this day a shadow falls
Silence walks through the halls
Since I've been gone, gone, gone
A hundred years from today
Lamplights ablaze? paves my way
Till Jesus saves my early grave
I will be gone, gone, gone
Drop the anchor lift my heart
From stem to stern I'm torn apart
Mount my horse? pack my cart?
Tomorrow I'm gone, gone, gone
Seek the hull? leave the deck
Silver moon silhouette
In due time you will forget
That I am gone, gone, gone
I will be gone, gone, gone
Since I've been gone, gone, gone
Tomorrow I'm gone, gone, gone

Pretty pendant decendend of joy
Return the father to the boy
Resent your past repent our ?????
We are only lines on a map
Calendars oooooooooooh and clocks ooooooohhhhhh and Hi-ckory docks
Find a feeling that feels okay
Find another to blow it away
Who are you and who am I
Please don't ask me I'll break down and cry
Calendars oooooooooooh and clocks ooooooohhhhhh and Hi-ckory docks
Hoo ha hoo ha hoo ha
Theres nothing more than the seashells on the sea shore
Nothing more than the church bell that rings no more
Nothing more than the scenes behind a closed door
Nothing more than the rich and pennyless poor
Nothing more no nothing more
Oooooooooohhhh
Calendars Clocks and hickory docks (tick tock)
Calendars Clocks and hickory docks (tick tock)
Yeah
Calendars Clocks and hickory docks (tick tock)

And Tick Tocks!

Tighten up your bootlace and hit the sand hills by the sea
And as the mist fills the canyons, oh what could lie ahead for you and me
See seagulls fly so high
Hear how they cry
What lies behind the sand hills
What lies behind the sea
All the subtleties of manhood forever chasing me
Sea forever chasing me
Forever chasing me (x3)

It's up in my heart when it skips a beat (skips a beat)
Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I don't want you now
When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
From this pain I just can't disguise
Its gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I dont want you now
Oh yeah
Ohhh Ohhhhh
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you (wah oooo)
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I dont want you now

What can make you laugh can make you cry
See the sadness behind my eyes
What can make you live can make you die
Oh I'm so happy, that is my disguise
But I don't fit in anyway
I'll keep trying just the same
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
What can make you love can make you hate
If you're gonna run then don't hesitate
They say it can't be done, you know it can
On this day well you'll become a man
But I don't don't fit in anyway
So I'll keep trying just the same
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Not knowing how you feel
That is worse than feeling bad
Is there a feeling I can steal that can stop me from feeling sad today
Now's the time to make a stand
'Cause it's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands
Now's the time to take a stand
It's in your hands

Bless my cotton socks I'm in the news
The king sits on his face buttons all askew
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
They can't have it
You can't have it
I can't have it too
Until I learn to accept my reward
Princes stand in queues they stand accused
Death in solitude like Howard Hughes
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
Silence has it
Arrogance has it
I can have it ooh
Until I learn to accept my reward
Suddenly it struck me very clear
Suddenly it struck me very clean
All wrapped up the same

Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
There goes my baby with a-someone new
She sure looks happy, while I sure am blue
She was my baby, 'til he stepped in
Goodbye to romance that might have been
Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
I'm a-through with romance, and I'm a-through with love
I'm tired of counting the stars above
But there's a reason why I'm so free
My loving baby is through with me
Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
