Never wanted to hurt you baby
Leave you standing in the pouring rain
Never wanted to see you shiver
Never want to, never want to cause you pain
I only want to hold you in my arms ‘cos
It’s the only time that I feel sane
Only ever want you by my side but
All I ever do, all I do is cause you pain
Again and again.
Never wanted to hurt you baby
Leave you stranded on a distant shore
Never wanted to see you crying
Never want to, never want to hurt you more
I only want to see the light in your eyes ‘cos
It’s the only time that I feel sane
Only ever want you by my side but
All I ever do, all I do is cause you pain
Again and again
The times that I’ve tried are always misunderstood
The truth somehow comes out as lies
When all that you need is some light in your world
All you get is my foolish pride
Foolish pride.
Never wanted to hurt you baby
Leave you facing the nights alone
Never wanted to see you breaking
Never want to, never want to see you fall
I only want to hold you in my arms ‘cos
It’s the only time that I feel sane
Only ever want you by my side but
All I ever do, all I do is cause you pain
Again and again

You Got The Face
05:00
|
|||
|
You walk into a crowded room, a hush fills the air
Chatters turn to whispers, they pretend not to stare
You got the face and you wear it so well
You got the face, so many stories you could tell
You could launch a thousand ships
Make princes crash and fall
Take the toughest man around you
Get him on his knees make him crawl
‘Cos you got the face
And you wear it so well
You got the face
So many stories you could tell
Don’t look back over your shoulder
‘Cos something’s coming after you
Someday you’re gonna be much older
You chose one but your lucky number’s two
What’s that just behind your shoulder?
There’s a shadow over you
Those kids they make you feel much older
Take off your foundation
And see that all the rust is coming through.
Is this how you remember it
Your golden day in the sun?
As you check out the obituaries
There goes another one
You had the face
And you wore it so well
You had the face
So many stories you could tell

I Need Love
05:11
|

|
I’ve got my late night lady
Got a job that pays my bills
Got my kids they keep me busy
Got a doctor cures my ills
But I’ve been thinking lately
Of the good times and the bad
Of all the times that I’ve been lonely
Of all the times that I’ve been had
I need love…
I’ve got my money in my wallet
Got my music in my bag
Got my hair the way I want it
For me there’ll be no turning back
‘Cos I’ve been thinking lately
Of the good times and the bad
Of all the times that I’ve been lonely
Of all the times that I’ve been had
I need love…
I’m gonna wake up on time
Grab my coat grab my hat gonna show my face
Gonna let it shine
No use in sitting here
In my cold cold comfort gonna shake it up
I’m gonna walk the line
Let it shine
I’ll put my pedal to the metal
Put my shoulder to the wheel
Put my nose against the grindstone
I’m gonna say just how I feel
‘Cos I’ve been thinking lately
Of the good times and the bad
Of all the times that I’ve been lonely
Of all the times that I’ve been had
I need love…

Over My Head
03:21
|
|||
|
Where there’s a will there’ll be a way
That’s what everybody says
Where there’s a view a point to prove
I need to think and room to move
Where there’s a light won’t shine on me
The road ahead I cannot see
I’m diving in I’ve made my bed
Sight unseen over my head
I’ve got myself inside of
I find myself inside of
There is a place I want to be
I’ll get as good as I give
That’s just the way that I live
There is a place I want to be
I’ll make believe I’ll make my case
Won’t lose my cool I’ll save my face
Where there’s a will there’ll be a way
That’s what everybody says

Boy Kiss Girl
04:23
|
|||
|
It shouldn’t happen like this. You feel out of place
You thought you were one but you just manoeuvred in the same space
Like a book with the last two pages torn out
It hits you so hard
You’ve got to make up the ending for yourself
Only the old can afford to be young
They can see the illusion but still enjoy all the fun
They’ve got skins of leather that keep out the pain
They’ve been hit hard
But they wouldn’t have missed it for the world
Boy kiss girl, girl kiss boy…
Boy miss girl, girl lose boy…
You must believe, believe in belief
When jealousy comes in the night like a thief
It’ll whisper in your ear it can poison your mind
Hits you so hard
It’ll make your head spin like a wheel
Boy kiss girl, girl kiss boy…
Boy miss girl, girl lose boy…
None of us really decides who we lose our heart to
One of those electric shocks that just might happen to you
It can build you up it can tear you down
It can hit you so hard
But I wouldn’t have missed it for the world
Boy kiss girl, girl kiss boy…
Boy miss girl, girl lose boy…
Girl kiss girl, boy kiss boy…
Girl lose girl, boy lose boy…

Wild Imagination

I’ve got a wild imagination run a million miles away
I ride on my elation keep the lows and blues away
Keep the blues, keep the blues away
I’ve got a wild imagination, got a neuroplastic brain
It’s a thing of God’s creation not a thing that I can tame
No I can’t tame, I can’t tame
I’ve got a wild imagination got a whole lot on my mind
I’m tired of conversation got to find some peace of mind
Peace of mind, peace of mind
I’ve got a wild imagination I’ve got everyone’s disease
Tears and perspiration make me ill at ease
Everyone’s disease, everyone’s disease
I’ve got a wild imagination got a runaway train of thought
It’s crowded at my station imagination’s all I’ve got
It’s all I’ve got, it’s all I’ve got…

Only The Good Die Young
03:30
|

Johnny never was much good at knowing when to stop
But Johnny had a heart both strong and true
He never was much good at knowing when to go to ground
Johnny never knew only the good die young
Johnny had a pain inside that never seemed to stop
It happened even when he turned away
He never understood that love will always come around
Johnny never knew only the good die young
Then one night a crack appeared and set his demon free
Johnny’s little friend was on the loose
It caught him by surprise that late night knock upon the door
Johnny finally knew only the good die young
They buried him last Sunday as the rain was coming down
But it couldn’t wash away his final sin
And as they held each other close and turned and walked away
Everybody knew, yes everybody knew
Only the good die young

I dreamt about my dead friend
She sat right down beside me
I think she was my best friend
I felt her right inside me
But she never said a word
She swam inside my bloodstream
She rode it like a river
She went around my ribcage
And down into my liver
But she never said a word
No she never said a word
There was nothing left for us to say
She was part of my DNA
And though it gave me just a little fright
I want to dream about her every night
She jiggled with my memory she altered my perception
It was extrasensory but there was no deception
‘Cos she never said a word
No she never said a word…
I dreamt about my dead friend

Next In Line
05:11
|

A little twist of fate a simple roll of dice
This is my rule of thumb I won’t believe my eyes
As far as I can see all that I can hear
Good luck and goodbyes always end in tears
Who’s next in line
Who fans your flame
Who lights your fire
Time and time again
The truth will always out eyes prised wide open
Not a shred of doubt promises unspoken
A little sad production hold me in suspense
Skip the introduction it never made much sense
Who’s next in line
Who fans your flame
Who lights your fire
Time and time again
A simple twist of fate a little roll of dice
This is my rule of thumb I won’t believe my eyes
Am I next in line
Will I fan your flame
Can I light your fire
Can I do it again
Oohwaahoohwaa….

Something wicked this way comes
She’s looking my way and I’m coming undone
Something wicked this way comes
Something wicked this way comes
She’s walking my way and I ought to run
Something wicked this way comes
She got the voodoo
She cast a hoodoo
She got me dancing to her drums
I’ll drink her home brew
She’ll turn the love screw
And then she’ll have me speaking in tongues
Something wicked this way comes
I know she’s planning a hit and run
Something wicked this way comes
She got the voodoo
She cast a hoodoo
She got me dancing to her drums
I’ll drink her home brew
She’ll turn the love screw
And then she’ll have me speaking in tongues
Something wicked this way comes
She’s looking my way and I’m coming undone
Something wicked this way comes
Something wicked this way comes
I know she’s planning a hit and run
Something wicked this way comes…

A World Away
04:01
|

|
In a world away she’s holding sway in her own way so I can choose
Got a helping hand take a steady stand play a double hand doomed to lose
At her beck and call I will cringe and crawl stumble and fall at her feet
She’ll do as she please I’m down on my knees with a fatal disease of deceit
In a world away from here in a different atmosphere where I can breathe
In a world away from mine where a little light can shine where I can feel
I’m in a stranglehold I’ll do as I’m told while she runs hot and cold but I can choose
What a price to pay while she’s holding sway in a world away I stand to lose
In a world away from here in a different atmosphere where I can breathe
In a world away from mine where a little light can shine where I can feel
In a world away from here in a different atmosphere where I can breathe
In a world away from mine where a little light can shine where I can feel

Let Me Stay
06:42
|

|
Night has come and silence fills the air
The lyrebird stills its wings. No one there
I close my eyes I kiss your mouth and I glide away
I lie in bed I turn my head I can feel it slide away
Please don’t go away just let me stay another day
And if you go away my mind would stray it might just fly away
Are you there?
Your shadow walk, your silent talk, your feather touch
Our heavy hearts from the very start. Was all too much?
Just out of reach you disappear in the crowd
You slip away I call your name but not aloud
Please don’t go away just let me stay another day
And if you go away my mind would stray it might just fly away…
