Song lyrics

Bird

Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight Fell down from the sky and settled here No more songs to sing The silence is deafening I should have seen it coming My sworn enemy has his eye on me So I keep my eye on him Through the minor chords I am blind towards The car he travels in Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight Fell down from the sky and settled here No more songs to sing The silence is deafening I should have seen it coming So I made no vow, the curb's my pillow now As my body blows away Will you sing your song, will you still fly on? Far above my resting place Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight Fell down from the sky and settled here No more songs to sing The silence is deafening I should have seen it coming Bird on the roadside, blue black and white Didn't see the headlight and settled here No more songs to sing The silence is deafening I should have seen it coming

Bring On The Wonder

I can't see the stars anymore living here Let's go to the hills where the outlines are clear Bring on the wonder, bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long I fell through the cracks at the end of our street Let's go to the beach, get the sand through our feet Bring on the wonder, bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long Bring on the wonder, we got it all wrong We pushed you down deep in our souls for too long I don't have the time for a drink from the cup Let's rest for a while 'til our souls catch us up Bring on the wonder, bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long Bring on the wonder, we got it all wrong We pushed you down deep in our souls, so hang on Bring on the wonder, bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long

Monoplain

Love is on the edge about as far as you can get Waiting for the last goodbye that hasn't happened yet We used to smell the fear when compromise was hidden here O We need to make some water but we're all too tired to cry So roll down your river 'til your river runs dry Love is good and stuck, I'm just too tired to dig it up Buried in a shallow grave, blamed upon bad luck Blue has made its bed and all the memories underread O We need to make some water but we're all too tired to cry So roll down your river 'til your river runs dry Love's a song to sing but love walks out when you walk in Home to the place I can't remember living in Every word's the same, a language on a monoplain O We need to make some water but we're all too tired to cry So roll down your river 'til your river runs dry We need to make some water but we're all too tired to cry So roll down your river 'til your river runs dry

On Your Side

If your lights are ever broken and your vision's less than kind In the midst of the unspoken I'm on your side If your guns are ever smoking I will be your alibi I'll be the drink to stop you choking I'm on your side Round the corner may be hills to climb but you're doing alright If your morning brings a black sun I will be your neon light Drop your nets into the ocean I'm on your side Round the corner may be hills to climb but you're doing alright If you're feeling tired and weary let me carry you awhile If you only dot this hear me singing 'I'm on your side' If you struggle for the finish across the great divide If we're all made in the image be on my side Round the corner may be hills to climb but we're doing alright If your lights are ever broken and your vision's less than kind In the midst of the unspoken I'm on your side If you're feeling tired and weary let me carry you awhile If you only dot this hear me singing 'I'm on your side'

If Your're Feelin' Low

The sea of change is coming and you think you're gonna drown The sea of change is coming and you think you're gonna drown If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down Everything was different when you went back home to town Everything was different when you went back home to town If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down You're looking for the answers but they don't want to be found You're looking for the answers but they don't want to be found If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down When everything seems driven by the dollars and the pounds When everything seems driven by the dollars and the pounds If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down Today will be a shadow when tomorrow comes around Today will be a shadow when tomorrow comes around If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down If you're feelin' low, don't let it get you down

We All Belong Here

I took a train to escape and oh my On a free holiday to find Nothing's very clear We all belong here So get on in and take a deep breath Far away the traffic jams are sweetnes But we still love second gear We all belong here I get lost coming home always After all the miracle replays When the dark clouds disappear We all belong here I took a train to escape and oh my On a free holiday to find Nothing's very clear We all belong here

Skin, Bone & Silicone

The first time I saw Kerry-Anne I knew would be the last Skin, bone & silicone to all who dared to ask She walked along the finest line of love and lonliness You can see her as the sun goes down She loved you in the morning, by noon you caught the train A cheap return where homefires burn for a wife you gave no name Be careful when you screw a friend, lies are hard to tame You'll remember when the sun goes down Hold me when the love takes too long to come around I'll wait until the sun goes down We hung upon her manner, bought the papers that she sold She tried to laugh, go torn in half upon the centrefold She said 'Cling to what you treasure and treasure what you hold. How long before my sun goes down?' Hold me when the love takes too long to come around I'll wait until the sun goes down She gave her last performance when they played her final chord Morning song, oh hurry on and bring the last reward Now every chair she sits upon is fashioned by the Lord You can see them as the sun goes down Hold me when the love takes too long to come around I'll wait until the sun goes down Hold me when the love takes too long to come around I'll wait until the sun goes down

Moonlight

You and me and a small mystery Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Ever high, brought together by Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Blowing a kiss on each side of this Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Oceans wide, I see the other side Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight It's never that far, I still can see our Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Blowing a kiss on each side of this Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Blowing a kiss on each side of this Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight

Don't Worry

Hold out your hand and be all that you can You're getting too close to the edge You don't have to worry about feeling sorry For the terrible things that you said I'll bet you a wager, your behaviour Is not how you thought it would be Don't worry, don't worry for me Don't worry for me, don't worry for me, don't worry for me Can you steer and keep going with no way of knowing How long you can keep down there 'Cos I've heard that salvation comes to a person Through terror and grief and dispair I'm certain of one thing, your manner of thinking Is not how you thought it would be Don't worry, don't worry for me Don't worry for me, don't worry for me, don't worry for me Don't worry for me, don't worry for me, don't worry for me, don't worry for me

The Grave

All of your worth won't fit in the earth When you're lying underground in the grave Whatever amount in your balanced account There's nothing you can buy in the grave In the next age, no stock exchange Is gonna pass on the money we made No lottery wins, political spins When we're lying underground in the grave New surgery defies gravity But it all falls away in the grave And who's gonns care what colour you wear There's no fashion show in the grave So swallow it down, no easy way round Just a pill for the thrills that we crave But no medicine to stop kingdom come It's your time, get in line for the grave And we'll all the same, we'll go as we came Side by side as we lie in the grave We'll all the same, we'll go as we came Side by side as we lie in the grave
