Morning is almost here, let it wait I just want to lie here a while, tempting fate I don't think I could breathe now with you gone But it's not weakness it's just something I've begun
Maybe there's a light that's always on Maybe we're not only human (maybe) Maybe there's a light that's always on And we're not only human
When you're sleeping your ceramic You're surrounded by little stars Every shimmer is a searchlight Every planet is ours
Change the street, change the decade Still the longing's left inside But why am I too small to carry you? Why does twilight make me cry?
Maybe there's a light that's always on Maybe we're not only human (maybe) Maybe there's a light that's always on And we're not only human
When all is said and done, When all the weight is gone When all is said and done, When all the weight is gone We're not only human
Life is something set to music I can hear it when I'm sad There's a chord in every muscle Every kiss you ever had There's a power when you're near me In our heads or in our bones I know nothing, but I'm guessing When we die we're not alone
Maybe there's a light that's always on Maybe we're not only human (maybe) Maybe there's a light that's always on And we're not only human
When all is said and done, When all the weight is gone When all is said and done, When all the weight is gone We're not only human Not only human (ad lib, Not Only Human)
I've got a ruby red desire Like a virus like my last hope I've got a ruby red desire I've got to hear the red bird sing I've got to rip this cord And rinse this lazy blood Clear a path and walk away
I've been waiting for the sky to fall I've been worried I could lose it all I've been waiting for the safety net Tell myself that I'm not ready yet
And every memory's a dream And each uncertainty reminds me why I saw a kid outside playing by a moongate Making paper things that fly
I've been waiting for the sky to fall I've been worried I could lose it all I've been waiting for the safety net Tell myself that I'm not ready yet
I want to live (and shed my skin) I want to live (and dive in) I want to live (and shed my skin) I want to live (and dive in)
I've been waiting for the sky to fall I've been worried I could lose it all I've been waiting for the safety net Tell myself that I'm not ready yet
I want to live (and shed my skin) I want to live (and dive in) I want to live (and shed my skin) I want to live (and dive in)
You're the one I think about time after time You're the one that comes to me, visions in the night I want to complicate your feelings I want to heat you up inside Yeah yeah yeah, I wanna make you mine
I'll be your sun coming up I'll be your dog days I'll be your new morning Kiss you baby I'll be the bluebird singing I'll keep you warm I'll take you deep in Take you deep in
Gonna make my bed beside you In the bluebells of your soul Gonna slip into your river, babe Linger in your shoals And when the stars are bright like fireflies And the night is black as coal Yeah yeah yeah, I'm gonna make you mine
I'll be your sun coming up I'll be your dog days I'll be your sweet honey I kiss you baby I'll be the bluebird singing I'll keep you warm I'll take you deep in Take you deep in
On another side of time Before the sea runs dry Yeah yeah yeah On another side of time Where the love runs high I'm gonna make you mine Gonna make you mine X4 Gonna make you mine, yeah

In the bluebells of your soul Yeah before the sea runs dry
I lie in a field, in the trailer-park of my dreams saving up for someday but what does someday mean? and I'm young but I let it slip on by I'm co-dependent and I'm not in side and you, you look like freedom you look like the avalanche I need the avalanche I need
And there's a road, leads away from here and every day I stand in place and watch it disappear and there's a bird, circles in my mind security's the whore in me that never lets me fly and you, you look like freedom and you,you look like change you look like the avalanche I need the avalanche I need
With your sunburned soul and your hunger for the road I'm snowblind and I'm crying after like nothing else matters When you go down take me When you go down, yah, make me I got a hunger you could feed
and I know it's a fine line divides the place I'm looking for and what's inside and I know it's a long, long way through the outskirts of everyday and you, you look like freedom, you look like change you look like the avalanche I need the avalanche I need Avalanche
Wishful thinking I might be yours Drifting on every step I'm always drawn to the dark horse sweet, sweet , oh nothing's said
And every dream, every, is just a dream after all And everything stands so still when you dance Everything spins so fast And the night's in a paper cup When you want it to last
Wishful thinking you might be mine Every shiver sends One breath under the bridge of sighs Bending where the river bends
And every dream, every, is just a dream after all
And everything stands so still when you dance Everything spins so fast And the night's in a paper cup When you want it to last
Lately I've been slipping down thinking I'm the only one drifting in and out of the blue but destiny's a state of mind and today I'm doing fine just rolling through the afternoon with you
(chorus) And it's a widescreen world around me and I'm lying on the backseat of my mind and it's a widescreen, got you beside me we're just riding on the backseat feeling fine
I will be your misfit queen I'll take you where the grass is green past the littered sidewalk to the sun I hear the traffic move outside yeah, but if I close my eyes I can make it sound like waves rolling on
And it's a widescreen world around me and I'm lying on the backseat of my mind and it's a widescreen, got you beside me we're just riding on the backseat feeling fine
And if we lie still, can you feel the room can you feel the city, can you feel it move? Can you tell your body, your body from mine? Can you la la la lie
Your hands were covered in paint The pillow smothered my cry You were half charmer half snake I lived in dreamtime
But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'Cause I'm alive
Some nights I'd sleep in the car Just to escape you You drove devotion too far No-one could save you
But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'Cause I'm Alive
I still have visions of you I still have nights to get through And when the trust isn't true I have these visions of you, visions of you
But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'cause I'm alive Ride on and fade away There's nothing more to say Ride on and fade away There's nothing more to say
I've got a memory a thousand years old And I know secrets I've never been told And I've got jewels I haven't found And they'll return me to the ground
(chorus) I'm the girl, I'm the girl, I'm the girl You know me I'm the girl, I'm the girl, I'm the girl
And I'm a siren; I'll wreck you on my shores And I'm Godiva; I'll call you back for more And I'm Medusa; and I'm your favorite doll And I'm a Georgia O'Keefe Hanging on your wall
(chorus)
I'm Joan of Arc, I'm the girl next door I'm the mother and the daughter of the mother and the daughter before
And I remember being born just Sound and light and sound and light And I remember the first time skin on skin in the arms of the night Well how many times have we looked Up into the starry skies, and how many times have we felt the passion rise. Every ruby-lipped girl baby, old lady, squaw junkie, girl after girl after girl, every muse, whore, good witch, princess, back arching, year after year after year
(chorus)
I'm Joan of Arc, I'm the girl next door I'm the mother and the daughter of the mother and the daughter before
Now's the time when this will turn to fruit All the poppies gonna push up through And I can see the ground below The places that I know, disappearing And I can see the winter fade I don't feel so afraid it's clearing
Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling
Life is only half way in our hands Years have passed while I was making plans And I could never find the words I always felt absurd, and always outside
But now I know I shouldn't care There's a song already there Waiting inside
Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling
And I can feel the crock unwind The parts of me I tied are running And all the birds are in my head The laughter that was dead is coming
Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling Oh, what a feeling
The laughter that was dead is coming Oh, what a feeling The laughter that was dead is coming
Big ring around the moon It's gonna rain hard soon
I know you're gonna leave It's like a storm inside
You're the Blood Of Me You're the truth that hurts You're the memory You're the drug that works
Why do people change When hearts, hearts, still beat the same ?
You're the Blood Of Me You're the truth that hurts You're the memory, yeah You're the drug that works
I don't believe you when you tell me I don't believe you when you hold me I don't believe you. You're my medicine I don't believe you when you fuck me
You're the Blood Of Me You're the Blood Of Me You're the truth that hurts You're the memory, yeah You're the memory You're the drug that works
You're the Blood Of Me, yeah You're the Blood Of Me You're the truth that hurts, hurts You're the memory, yeah You're the memory You're the drug that works
I'm coming, I'm coming home to you I'm alive, I'm a mess I can't wait to get home to you To get warm, warm and undressed
There've been changes beyond my dreams Everybody wants me to sing There've been changes beyond my grasp Things I'm sinking in
So keep me, keep me In your bed all day, all day Nothing heals me like you do Nothing heals me like you do
And when somebody knows you well Well there's no comfort like that And when somebody needs you Well there's no drug like that
So keep me, keep me In your bed all day, all day Nothing heals me like you do Keep me keep me In your bed all day, all day Nothing heals me like you do
And where l'm home, curled in your arms And I'm safe again I'll close my eyes and sleep, sleep To the sound of London Rain
So keep me, keep me In your bed all day, all day Nothing heals me like you do Keep me keep me In your bed all day, all day Nothing heals me like you do Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London Rain Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London Rain Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London Rain Nothing heals me like you do
So is it goodbye? Is it time to set you free? Is it time to let it fly? Is it time to let it bleed We used to take turns To cover up the pain Deep below it burns And the fellin' still remains You're gonna find someone new I really hope you do 'Cause I love you And the sun will come on thru, It's gonna shine for you 'Cause I adore you Yes we gave it a try But maybe for too long Out of every sorrow Another day will dawn You're gonna find someone new I really hope you do 'Cause I love you And the sun will come on thru, It's gonna shine for you 'Cause I adore you And the road travels on But I'm still near you In my life, like a song I will still hear you Still Sun will shine for you 'Cause I adore you
