Cover my eyes
The light falls on her face Dangerous lines Dangerous colours and shapes Ferocious designs Connected and ready to play Buttoned up tight Crimson and Halloween-white She's like the girl in the movie when the Spitfire falls Like the girl in the picture that he couldn't afford She's like the girl with the smile in the hospital ward Like the girl in the novel in the wind on the moors Pain and heaven Pain and heaven The meaning of life A hair falls out of place Cover my eyes Dangerous colours and shapes And when she moves Cover my eyes She like the girl on the TV with the red guitar Like the girl with the dealer at the end of the bar She's like the girl with the smile in the dream in the dark Like the girl overtaking in the open car Pain and heaven Pain and heaven |

Do you remember chalk hearts melting on a playground wall
Do you remember dawn escapes from moonwashed college halls Do you remember the cherry blossom in the market square Do you remember, I thought it was confetti in our hair By the way, didn't I break your heart Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart So sorry, I never meant to break your heart but you broke mine Kayleigh, is it too late to say I'm sorry And Kayleigh, could we get it together again I just can't go on pretending that it came to a natural end Kayleigh, oh I never thought I'd miss you And Kayleigh, I thought that we'd always be friends We said our love would last forever so how did it come to this bitter end Oh oh yeah Do you remember, barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars Do you remember the loving on the floor in Belsize Park Do you remember dancing in Stilletos in the snow Do you remember, you never understood I had to go By the way, didn't I break your heart Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart So sorry, I never meant to break your heart but you broke mine Kayleigh, I just wanna say I'm sorry But Kayleigh, I'm too scared to pick up the phone To have hear you've found another lover to patch up our broken home Kayleigh, I'm still trying to write that love song Kayleigh, it's more important to me, now you're gone Maybe it'll prove that we were right or it'll prove that I was wrong |

A ghost of a mist was on the field
The grey and the green together The noise of a distant farm machine Out of a the first light came A tattered necklace of hedge end trees On the southern side of the hill Betrays where the border runs between Where mary dunoon's boy fell Easter here again A time for the blind to see Easter Surely now can all of your hearts be free Out of the port of liverpool Bound for the north of ireland The wash of the spray and horsetail waves The roll of the sea below And easter here again A time for the blind to see Easter Surely now can all of your hearts be free What will you do? Make a stone of your heart? Will you set things right? When you tear them apart? Will you sleep at night? With the plough and the stars alight? What will you do? With the wire and the gun? That'll set things right When it's said and done? Will you sleep at night? Is there so much love to hide? Forgive Forget Sing never again. |

On premenades where drunks propose to lonely arcade mannequins where ceremonies pause at the jewellers shop display feigning casual silence in strained romantic interludes till they commit themselves to the muted journey home And the pool player rests on another cue Last nights hero picking up his dues a honeymoon gambled on a ricochet she's staring at the brochures at the holidays chalking up a name in your hometown standing all your mates to another round laughing at the world till the barman wipes away the warm wet circles I saw teenage girls like gaudy moths a classrooms shabby butterflies flit in the glow of stranded telephone boxes; planning white lace weddings from smeared hearts and token proclamations, rolled from stolen lipsticks across the razored webs of glass Sharing cigarettes with experience with her giggling jealous confidantes, she faithfully traces his name with quick bitten fingernails through the tears of condensation that'll cry through the night as the glancing headlights of the last bus kiss adolescence goodbye In a warm wet circle Like a mothers kiss on your first broken heart, a warm wet circle Like a bullethole in Central Park, a warm wet circle and I'll always surrender to the warm wet circles She nervously undressed in the dancing beams of the Fidra lighthouse giving it all away before its too late She'll let a lovers tongue move in a warm wet circle giving it all away and showing no shame She'll take a mother's kiss on her first broken heart a warm wet circle, she'll realise that she plays her part in a warm wet circle (the Quarterdeck, North Berwick) [FISH and DEREK WILLIAM DICK] It was a wedding ring, destined to be found in a cheap hotel lost in a kitchen sink or thrown in a wishing well |

Cause I'm the one who knows what scares you I'm the one who loves you best I'm the Thirteenth at the Table I'm the Uninvited Guest I'm the Banquo at your banquet I'm the cuckoo in your nest I'm your New Year's resolution I'm the Uninvited Guest I'm the Face you hoped you'd never see But always knew you would I'm the on thing you knew you shouldn't do But did because you could I'm the evil in your bloodstream I'm the rash upon your skin And you made a big mistake alright The day you let me in And you could fly to the other side of the world You know you'd only find I've reserved the seat behind you We could talk about old times [JOHN HELMER and STEVE HOGARTH |

I am the assassin, with tongue forged from eloquence
I am the assassin, providing your nemesis On the sacrificial altar to success, my friend Unleash a stranger from a kiss, my friend No incantations of remorse, my friend Unsheathe the blade within the voice, my friend Who decorates the scarf with the fugi knot Who camouflaged emotion in a thousand yard stare Who gouged the notches from the family tree Who hypnotised the guilt in career rhythm trance Assassing, assassing, assassing, assassing Listen as the syllables of slaughter cat with calm precision Patterned frosty phrases rape your ears and sow the ice incision Apocalyptic alphabet casting spell the creed of tempered diction Adjectives of annihilation bury the point beyond redemption Venomous verbs of ruthless candour plagiarise assassins fervour A friend in need is a friend that bleeds Let bitter silence infect the wound You were a sentimental mercenary in a free fire zone Parading a Hollywood conscience You were a fashionable objector with a uniform fetish Pavlovian slaver at the cash till ring of success A non com observer - I assassin the collector - defector So you resigned yourself to failure, my friend And I emerged the chilling stranger, my friend To eradicate the problem, my friend Unsheathe the blade within the voice I am the assassin I am the assassin And what do you call assassins who accuse assassins anyway, my friend |

'I feel so strange what's wrong with me' You've got a problem that you can't see But I've got a feeling that the rumours are true I see the girl's go a hook in you You carry on believing That you can take or leave it Now who are you deceiving Cause when it's own up time She's in the back of you mind She's got her hooks in you You said you'd never let it happen again You spend your money and you're deeper in Your fairweather friends call two by two To let you know what's wrong with you But now your heartbeat's thumpin' You watch you nerve ends jumpin' Well I can tell yo somethin' When it's own up time You're gonna toe the line She's got her hooks in you She's got her hooks in me too. |

You landed in my life
Like a new and brighter light That made all my past seem in the shadow I always used to believe That beauty was skin deep But I need a new word to describe you And the time that it took to take down the wall Was the time that it took for me to fall Hopelessly weak No one can take you away from me now Don't worry if they take me away No one can take you away from me now Don't matter how long we have to wait The days before you came Were really all the same A greyness I used to call freedom Endless nights out with the boys The boasting and the noise To think that I ever believed them No one can take you away from me now Don't worry if they take me away No one can take you away from me now Don't matter how long we have to wait I don't care what they think You're all I believe in I carry you here And there's something of you In everything that I love No one can take you away from me now Don't worry if they take me away No one can take you away from me now Don't matter how long we have to wait No one can take you away from me now Don't worry if they take me away |

In all the time that I've known you
You've been so edgy and nervous I never wanted to own you I was aware of the danger Of making a bid for your favours You're such a natural stranger I made excuses and ran You're an island But I can't leave you all out at sea You're so violent with your silence You're an island I can't sleep Won't you speak to me I'm on dry land Won't you help me please In all the time that I've known you There has been something between us I don't hink it's my imagination I felt like I couldn't touch you But I had the feeling you'd love to Tell me the truth if you could do I made excuses and ran |

I was walking in the park dreaming of a spark When I heard the sprinklers whisper, Shimmer in the haze of summer lawns. Then I heard the children singing, They were running through the rainbows. They were singing a song for you. Well it seemed to be a song for you, the one I wanted to write for you, for you, you. Lavenders blue, dilly dilly, lavenders green. When I am King, dilly dilly, you will be Queen. A penny for your thoughts my dear, A penny for your thoughts my dear, I.O.U. for your love, I.O.U. for your love. Lavenders green, dilly dilly, lavenders blue. When you love me, dilly dilly, I will love you. A penny for your thoughts my dear, A penny for your thoughts my dear, I.O.U. for your love, I.O.U. for your love. For your love, for your love, for your love |

Something is coming out of the rain, magic
It's happening again, like the last time I don't know how it happens, but I know what to do Coming up from the ground, I think it's you I will walk on the water You sent me the red sun and the purple sky Cirrus clouds and grins Atoms of roses The power to do anything In the chaos of colours And the fluttering of wings You carry me up And I'm free again Don't let anyone tell you This is impossible What we have here is bigger than fear I will walk on water Don't let anyone tell you This is impossible Hold on to me Believe what you see I will walk on water |

now when you climb
into your bed tonight and when you lock and bolt the door just think of those out in the cold and dark cause there,s not enough love to go around and sympathy is what we need my friend and sympathy is what we need my friend and sympathy is what we need my friend cause there,s not enough love to go around now half the world hates the other half and half the world has all the food and half the world lies down and quiethy starves cause there,s not enough love to goround |
