My my, it doesn't matter what you say
From the start, I hang off every word you say Oh, tonight, are you trying to fall in love again? Does it make it all right? Are you trying to fall in love again? Now, I'm a hard man gone soft The lines were so clear then How did I ever get by? There was a time I hang off every word you say Every breath you blew, I was running to inhale Oh, tonight, are you trying to fall in love again? Does it make it all right? Are you trying to fall in love again? My my, there will be other days It comes and goes, you know it never stays Oh, tonight, are you trying to fall in love again? Oh, tonight, are you trying to fall in love again? Does it make it all right? Are you trying to fall in love again? Does it make it all right? You're trying to fall in love again |

She fell in love with my singing
She knew the bells started ringing She thought there was only her there But, me, I just live for the clapping A hand delivery of an invite to my premiere When he fell in love, I was acting I sent her flowers, asked her to marry me But all I heard was their clapping Now she cries with a cigarrette at the window He croons and moans like he's hurting She cries so well He croons and moans, just croons and moans Now, I never thought [I had no idea] she needed direction And he was at the mercy of his writers For the songs I needed [for me] to touch her Those sad, sad songs to make me happy Now she cries with a cigarrette at the window He croons and moans like he's hurting She cries so well He croons and moans, just croons and moans We re-enact the love scenes from her/my movies But I never thought, but she uses a stand-in His voice is croakier every day now And she cries so well |

All the love
All the love inside me Is on its way Is on its way to find you Don't try to hide From my love for you All the love All the love inside me Is on its way Is on its way to find you Like the tide I will always return to you And all the love All the love inside you Waits for me In the dunes in the tall grass You sit and smile You are the only one That could ever tease me All the love All the love inside you Feels my steps Getting closer to you Down on the shore You sing your love To the stars They're the guiding me back to you All the love All the love inside me Feels your breath Upon my back And hears your song That calls me home If I could tell you Of some of all the things I've seen Of all the love All the love inside them Got locked away For its own protection For so long It became just a memory And all the love All the love inside them Twisted into hate They have no choice But so pass on their fear Pass on their pain They pour it down Into the child Into the man Into the world That grew to love The gun that's in his hand And all the love All the love inside me Felt like a drop In a dirty ocean I looked at the stars Looked at my hands And my fingertips Trembled at the thought of touching you. |

Greed's all gone now, there's no question
And I can see you push your hair behind your ear Regain your balance Doesn't matter where she is tonight Or with whoever she spends her time If these arms were meant to hold her They were never meant to hold her so tight For the love of that girl Greed's all gone now, panic subsides When I could run, pulling arms to love her Try to put myself on the inside Of the love of that girl Tears swell, you don't know why For the love of that girl They never fall, they can never run dry For the love of that girl Promise is never over, never questions that needed reply But she could breathe deep into my neck Let me know I'm just on the outside Of the love of that girl Tears swell, you don't know why For the love of that girl They never fall, they can never run dry For the love of that girl Greed's all gone now, there's no question And I can see you push your hair behind your ears Regain your balance Doesn't matter where she is tonight Or with whoever she spends her time If these arms were meant to hold her They were never meant to hold her so tight For the love of that girl Tears swell, you don't know why For the love of that girl They never fall, they can never run dry For the love of that girl |

The first time we flew in
It was cheap and cramped The vodka running out half-way across the Atlantic Even the steward screamed and joined in it We didn't think we were going to make it Now we're stretched out in wide, furry seats Flicking through menus A walk to the bar and there's as much screw-top champagne as we can drink We're so easy Taking turns having our photos taken Sitting in front of small windows Decanters of cheap whiskey in our hands Drive into Manhattan on a date with a starlet who's just talent That's what people pay the money to see Who are we to argue? Five hours now it's been going on And still we're watching all of it Can you really believe all this? Can he really lie in bed at night and marvel at his own genius? When do you lose the ability to step back And get a sense of your own ridiculousness? They're only songs Midnight, and it's all over Now it can really make us laugh We're standing on our heads drinking sours of Crystal Schnapps Now we're unable to step back or forward Swallowing a swallow Tasting it again, it's not so unpleasant Perhaps it's an acquired taste The first time, it makes you sick Then, little by little, it becomes delicious Showbiz people Always there to be interested in what you say We are artists; we are sensitive and important We nod our heads earnestly Already half-way down the champagne On our way to leaving the place dry A $2,000 bar bill Showbiz picks up the tab And we're on our way laughing Laughing at what? Los Angeles, eight days in And our sense of irony's running pretty thin All the friends we've made It's 2 am, it's closing time at the Dresden Marty and Layton play one last sleepy "Strangers in the Night" And the last of the martinis dribble down our chins We're sitting, chasing the conservation around the table Jesus, how long have I been in this state? The limousine's still waiting outside Anything you want to do? Anywhere you want to go? We're on our way to the airport and a plane to Vegas So many nights lying in bed shaking Dreaming of pushing my daughter around the supermarket The joy of seeing all those colours and shapes reflected in her wide eyes My head leaning on the window And we're driving through the empty L.A. streets And everything seems silent and beautiful A guy's face hits the floor Police revolvers glistening in the streetlight Onto Melrose and lurching through a sea of Halloween transvestites The flight's cancelled, but it doesn't matter We turn this corner to a way that takes us wherever Up to Sunset We creep up the drive to the Shattuck The suite Belushi died in Or the one Morrison hung out of the window Oh, I'll go for Jim's I would fancy a little window-hanging myself, tonight, man Straight over to the mini-bar Open the champagne -- one sip and it's left to wake up to Anyone hungry? A team of uniformed waiters lay out an elaborate table for all us to ignore Oh, the irony How we're used to living Back in London on a cold Friday night Do you want another drink? Well, I could try Perhaps we could make it to the Atlantic 600 yards, twenty minutes later We're pushing through the waiting crowd, all fish eyes An exclusive door policy Exclusively for arseholes And tonight? Well, a nod of our heads, and we're inside Falling down the red, velvety stairs Limbs flaying, hands searching for something to steady Pick ourselves up, nothing broken Just aches in the morning No one seems to notice I find a table, champagne arrives I've been so drunk, I sit and look at you We try and talk for the first time in a long time Drunken confessions You shiver, it made you feel sick We use the rent money to pay the bill Bumping shoulders, we stumble out into Soho Slipping over the sleeping bags Shouting for taxis |

There's a city filth that lingers
All over my naked hands Deep into the weave of the clothes I wear And every step brings another Every hour adds some more Till I'm on the other side leaning on your door Are the taps running, darling? Is the air thick with steam? Can I find some place to cry these tears of shame? Every step brings another Every hour adds some more Till I'm on the other side leaning on your door There's a smell so sweet it's sickly It follows me into the room Hangs in the air like rotting perfume I never bathe in it, darling Got down on my hands and knees Got in so far, I became, well, a part of it all I've been wading through it Don't you know it's up to my neck? And it won't be long 'fore it's over my head And it's the thought of you in my mind, keeps me. . . Thought I knew these streets, and how they turn Could always find my way home There's something there, can't leave it alone The trains they run all night We could leave everything behind Just bring that dress you bought when we first met I know it's faded, darling I know it's tattered and worn In that dress, I could never love you more I've been wading through it Don't you know it's up to my neck? And it won't be long 'fore it's over my head And I can suck it into my love, breathe it in |

I'm laying on my back
She climbs over me Pricks out her nails Runs them over my proud belly I'm a tired, hungry bear Spoiled and sleepy Her finger's on my zipper She pulls it down slowly I'm not ready Turn over, settle down again Throw her off But she's back again I've been out all night Get in at dawn And I've still got honey Dripping from my claws I'm a tired, hungry bear Spoiled and sleepy Her finger's on my zipper She pulls it down slowly I'm not ready Turn over, settle down again Throw her off But she's back again |

Just as your eyes are closing
There was something that I meant to say Like falling from my heart But I don't know how Before you close your eyes I don't know how Chorus: I never cry for our love I never cry I never cry for our love I never cry There's no goodbye These hands have always lived through mine Now everything I touch I feel I don't know how Before you close your eyes I don't know how Chorus I'm so cynical It's in my face and It's just the bird I caught Leaves its taste hanging round round round Chorus Just as your eyes are closing There was something that I meant to say Like falling from my heart But I don't know how Before you close your eyes I don't know how Chorus Never cry.... never cry |

Boobar come back to me
I know you feel the pain that I feel I've heard that a thousand times It sings behind every door And I go rushing into that room To find nothing at all I ran down into the street And bathed in the city's noise 'Seems no matter where I go I still hear that voice She sang: Boobar And all the ships came in Before the storm began She sang: Boobar, come back to me I know you feel the pain, that I feel I jumped on the nearest train I travelled down to the shore I screamed into the waves But I still hear that voice I picked up an old guitar I tried to learn that song It's been so many years now Of 'where did all gone wrong? I sang it in every town You know, I tried my best Some nights I almost made it shine I've made a fool of it. Was there a time we really sold ourselves out? We wanted so much more We wanted something else I sang it in limousines On the back of mules It turned me into a king It turned me into a fool (2x) Boobar come back to me I know you feel the pain that I feel. |

Finding love Now seems like the easy part Just turn round the corner You standing there I felt the wind Was pushing behind us there It's taking us someplace that darling we've never been Don't you feel the wind It's pushing us further now Are we just gonna let it blow And hold on, don't you fall Cause there's such a way to go We've touched it now Don't let it go Can our love, can our love Grow any further Can our love, can our love Grow any further Can our love, can our love Grow any further Can our love, can our love Grow any further Don't you feel the wind It's pushing us further now Are we just gonna let it blow And you stand, don't you fall Cause there's such a way to go We've touched it now We've touched it, don't let it go But you see my love When everything's pushing now Everything's moving now And I don't know where to go We've touched it now, let it show, let it show Can our love, can our love Grow any further Can our love, can our love Grow any further Can our love, can our love I feel in my heart I can't wait any longer Can our love, can our love Can our love, can our love grow any further Sometimes we see that our love can change And I don't know why But it's not enough to change our hearts Transcr.

So many times
I said that I love them Looking over my shoulder at the door So many times I can't live without her The wheel kept turning round My feeling's changed I went my own way What can I say To make you stay? Cos in my dreams They smother all over me And I'm trying to explain So many arms Reach from my memories Pull all at once I'm lost amongst The folds in their skin I did you wrong But I'm sorry now And I'll show you how If you were here now You couldn't change you wouldn't understand but I'm ready now I'm ready now I'll make you proud I was your man and sing a song but it's so ugly now and I'll show you how cos I'm ready now I'm ready now I'm ready now I'm ready now Hey I'm ready now Can we start again? so many times I said that I loved them I'm ready now but I'm ready now Can we start again? so many times I can't live without her The years was more than I could bear It's turning round But in my dreams Can we start again? They smother all over me I'm ready now And I'm trying to explain Can we start again? So many arms reach from my memory The wheels kept turning round |

I'm crawling, don't know where to or from
The centre of things from where everything stems Is not where I belong And the city sickness, growing inside me So this is where I ran for freedom Where I may not be free *I have these hands beating with love for you And you're not here to touch Sent you away, what else can I do When I need something that much? I'm hurting babe, in the city there's no place for love It's just used to make people feel better It's not like us I got this sickness as I got off the train Now it chafes away at my heart Until nothing remains I'm okay afterwards Afterwards lasts for minutes only I'm okay during You kind of fill up my mind It's just that before, may last forever It's just that before, may just fuck my mind * Repeat |

Why don't you come out
The guards have gone They've forgotten their purpose And shuffled along So come feel the sun Why don't you come out The dogs lies sleeping Their limbs, they twitch with the chase in their dreams So come feel the sun Why don't you come out And exact your revenge On the liars and wasters that called themselves friends For to forgive is overrated As they kneel at your feet So come feel the sun Why don't you come out We all miss you Your wife and babies They just want to hold you So come feel the sun Touch your face And make everything the same as it was. |

I understand everything
I understand everything Take me in your arms You knew how I feel Before I knew, I was up to my neck First time we danced So I'll tell what brought you home tonight So, you're back, what brought you home? Oh, the dancing Take me in your arms You knew how I feel Running home I couldn't wait to be inside you then You were all around me then So, is that what brought you home tonight Do you know what brought you home tonight? Was it the dancing? Before I knew, I was up to my neck The last toe leaving ground First time we danced |

She knows what happens when I'm without her
How this ring itches on my finger Does she let me go to help me remember? Remember how I came in I was desperate then Remember what I am without her And that's a desperate man Before I go, when I'm without her How fast and how long that slide I'll always take that ride It itches on my finger Helps me remember Remember how I came in I was desperate then Remember what I am without her And that's a desperate man, yeah She knows what happens when I'm without her She sees the problem She understands the irony When I'm slumped there in that seat And slobbering of how much I love her Hey, bartender Let me tell you about when I walked in I was desperate then If I could find my way back to loving her I'm a desperate man, yeah I'm a desperate man, yeah |

She hangs from me See her face She can't let go I can't look in here eyes She's holding on She needed this to hurt me so So it shot out of me As if all of the love just got ripped out of me She said I'm such a sap, I'm such a jerk Can't I ever forget the way that we are Spend all your time with your eyes on the ground Looking for the stars So it shot out of me As if all of the love just got ripped out of me And just for that moment I saw in her eyes How it all could be It shot out of me Say this is it This is all there is You have to remember this This is all there is ( ) Spend all your time with your eyes on the ground Looking for the stars So it shot out of me As though all of the love has been ripped out of me |

I've got memories I keep them away from me They won't behave Won't be what I want them to be I've seen it all and it's all done I've been with everyone and no one So many squandered moments So much wasted time So busy chasing dreams I left myself behind I've seen it all and it's all done I've been with everyone and no one So this dying slowly It seemed better than shooting myself This dying slowly It seemed better than shooting myself These worms, darling They're nibbling away at me They go at it when I'm sleeping Won't let me get to my feet I've seen it all and it's all done I've been with everyone and no one So this dying slowly It seemed better than shooting myself This dying slowly It seemed better than shooting - If I could find the words to explain this feeling I would shout them out If I could find out all this, what's inside me I would shout it out So this dying slowly It seemed better than shooting myself This dying slowly It seemed better than shouting it out I make some coffee Pull on that new pair of pants I can get so far [?] The feeling just falls away I've seen it all and it's all done I've been with everyone and no one I'm just tired, baby I just need to lay down I'm just tired, darling I just need to lay down I'm just tired, baby I just need to lay down I'm just tired, darling I just need to lay down I'm just tired, darling Transcr.

To one, five past Now it's laying somewhere out there in the ground And I've lost you I was cheated It was something belonged only to me And now it's gone through my own stupidity And I lost you I was cheated Two whole years spent earning your love Now it's hanging around in the clouds Well I've lost you I was cheated I'm cheated by my own vanity Whispering rumours, bullying me Well I spent it It wasn't worth it & 58; And for those who are not so beautiful as her Not giving excuses, but oh... When it's originally tossed away It can easily be reclaimed by her By her All those years spent building myself up Trying to stop my staring And start taking two steps instead of one But they're so gone now Feeling relatively good I pretend to understand When those eyes hung on mine But you know, you get it wrong in the end I pretend to know what it's about You choose explanations to soothe myself But you know, you got it wrong and it's the end & 58; Now I only laugh with people Who have no reason to care Feeling good about things that don't mean nothing I get caught by what you mean Hey I could love you when you're ever here But you know, you got it wrong and it's the end You know what I say, see what I do There's a part of me still hiding from you I miss you, there I said it again You know what I say, see what I do There's a part of me still hiding from you I miss you, there I said it again |

Scared of my shadow
Afraid of myself Never thought I could be so shallow Resort to playing a man It's a thin line that I walk for her A thin line that I walk Between myself and what I have to do The action and the thought *Oh her, her, it's her Oh, her, her Feel like I've been dancing The lights have finally come on Just waiting for my eyes adjusting To see how ugly I've become She asked me for no promises I made them to myself I've given myself no choices now It's the only way out She tied back her hair Wrapped the band around Pulled off her rings And dropped them in a jar I'm not there, not waving my arms round I've gotten the `flu It's blocking my heart To her * Repeat |

I was dressed for success
But success, it never comes And I'm the only one who laughs At your jokes when they are so bad And you're jokes are always bad But they're not as bad as this *Come join us in a prayer We'll be waiting, waiting where Everything's ending here And all the sterile striking it Defends an empty dock you cast away And rain upon your forehead Where the mist's for hire If it's just too clear Let's spend our last 1/4 stance randomly Go down to the outlet once again Painted portrait of minions and slaves Crotch mavens and one night plays Are they the only ones who laugh? At the jokes when they are so bad And the jokes are always bad But they're not as bad as this * Repeat And all the Spanish candles unsold Have gone away to this And a "run-on piece of mount on" Trembles, shivers runs down the freeway I guess she spent her last quarter randomly I guess a guess is the best I'll do |

If I could tell you now
Tell you how I feel Is that so hard When I saw you There's so much to leave There's so much to carry around Gonna sit now Gonna sit and watch the night fall There's nothing more It takes your breath away Its all for you There's so much to carry around Chorus: But if she's torn Pull another stitch from me Give her what she needs and Pull another stitch from me It doesn't even stir now No modestly You just perform You cannot burst for joy It just takes toil Hard work and toil Can't tell her how I feel When all you've got is company You're sweating now And pouring down your brow There's nothing here at all There's only you There's so much to carry around Chorus If I could tell you now Tell you how I feel And pull in con after con Just to hear you breathe There's so much to leave There's so much to carry around Can't feel any better now Let your children crawl all over me Like I need to prove I don't deserve you Anyhow There's so much to leave There's so much to carry around Chorus |
