Les paroles


1. THE SUN AIN'T GONNA SHINE (ANYMORE)

Loneliness is a cloak you wear
A deep shade of blue is always there

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love (Baby)

Emptiness is a place you're in
And nothing to lose but no more to win

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love

Lonely without you baby
Girl I need you, I can't go on

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love (Baby)

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love (Baby)

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love (Baby)


2. FLY TO ME

Don?t turn your back on me
Conceal and protect me
I need you to stop me
From reeling around
The time?s gonna come
When you no longer need me
But stay by my side ?til the sun has gone down

When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?

As much as I want you
I can?t hold on to you
When will you return to your old home again?
May love lie around you
Good fortunes surround you
You know where to turn to
When you need a friend

When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?

When I am far away from the places we?ve known
Will all your love bring me home?

When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?

When I am far away from the places we?ve known
Will all your love bring me home?

Bring me home?


3. SNOWED UNDER

There's a cold voice on the air,
You've been looking everywhere,
Someone to understand your hopes and fears,
Well I've thought about that for many a long years.

So I walk through Manser's Shaw
I don't see you anymore,
We love to think about the way things were,
But the time has come and I'm glad its over.

I don't know why I waste my time,
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and its a lovely day,
You know sometimes I feel like I'm,
Getting Snowded Under with the things you say,
When I open my eyes and It's a lovely day.

Now you think that you're alone,
So you make your way back home,
I'd love to greet the weary travel,
But your time has gone and I'm glad its over.

I don't know why I waste my time,
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and its a lovely day,
You know sometimes I feel like I'm,
Getting Snowed Under with the things you say,
When I open my eyes and It's a lovely day.

I don't know why I waste my time,
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and its a lovely day,
You know sometimes I feel like I'm,
Getting Snowed Under with the things you say,
When I open my eyes and It's a lovely day.


4. ALLEMANDE

Allemande, where have you gone?
Did I know anything about you?
Many moons have come and gone
They wane so easily without you

All along I said we'd be sorry
Sorry, and so we are
But ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows
And ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows
And ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows you home?
Sorry, sorry, and so we are

Allemande, your face so long
And all my silly hopes hung on you

All along I said we'd be sorry
Sorry, and so we are
And ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows
And ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows
And ain't that the way that
The way that the wind blows you home?
Sorry, sorry, and so we are

Oh, the way that the wind blows you home
Sorry, sorry, and so we are


5. WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
Bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"

I hear babies crying
I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world


6. DINNER AT EIGHT

No matter how strong
I'm gonna take you down
With one little stone
I'm gonna break you down
And see what you're worth
What you're really worth to me

Dinner at eight was okay
Before the toast full of blames
It was great until those old magazines
Got us started up again
Actually it was probably me again

Why is it so
That I've always been the one who must go
That I've always been the one told to flee
When it fact you were the one long ago
Actually in the drifting white snow
You left me

So put up your fists and I'll put up mine
No running away from the scene of the crime
God's chosen a place
Somewhere near the end of the world
Somewhere near the end of our lives

But 'til then no, Daddy, don't be surprised
If I wanna see the tears in your eyes
Then I know it had to be long ago
Actually in the drifting white snow
You loved me

No matter how strong
I'm gonna take you down
With one little stone
I'm gonna break you down
And see what you're worth
What you're really worth to me


7. SOMETHING IN ME WAS DYING

Something in me was dying
And my heart was heavy as stone
Hard as i was trying
I never could find, find my way home

And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land

Something in me was broken
And my thoughts were bitter and ill
My world was blown open
I couldn?t see and i couldn?t feel
You said be yourself and think of me
And you'll know there's nothing to fear
Let's make plans together
It's time to move on and get out of here

Girl i need you
Don?t know what I would do
You will see the story through
It's a cruel world
And I need somewhere to hide
But time goes by
And your still on my side

Something in me was thinking
Cuz my heart was heavy as stone
I gave up, was thinking
I never would find, find my way home
And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land

Girl i need you
Don?t know what i would do
Will you see the story through
It's a cruel world
And i need somewhere to hide
The time goes by and your still on my side

Waiting
Searching
Turning over
Running round in circles
And i've worn myself out
Hoping that we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together(x4)


8. THE WAY YOU WANT IT

From the shelter of your home
As you walk into the rain
Send a message that ya know she'll hear
Though she's so far away

Even though ya have been wrong before
She'll hear ya now
Ya know she will
But ya don't know how

From the shelter of the rain
As you walk into the tube
As you think of her ya wonder
If she thinks about you too

Even though you've waited so long
To see the day
When she will turn to you again
So long my friend, is what you say

And i don't know why ya feel so bad
Where is the life ya once had?
And still this horrid feeling
Grows and grows the way ya want it to

Even though you've waited so long
To see the day
When she will turn to you again
So long my friend, is what you say

And i don't know why ya feel so bad
Where is the life you once had?
And still this horrid feeling
Grows and grows the way ya want it to

You're a fool though
Why ya feel so bad?
Where is the life you once had?
And still this hollow feeling
Grows and grows the way ya want it to


9. EMILY

Emily
Emily
All of my days spent are crashing around, crashing around
All of my years spent are running around, running around
All of my weeks spent are crashing around, crashing around
And you feel..
All of my weeks spent are flitting around, flitting around
Al of my years spent are waking around, waking around
All of my will is blotting her out, it's blotting her out
And you feel, and you feel, and you feel
Emily
And you feel
Emily, Emily, Emily
Well you never really had to know
And you never really had to know
And you never really had to know girl
And you never really lost the part
I mean you never really lost the part, ohh
I mean you never really lost the part
I mean you never really lost the part
I mean you never really lost the part, ohh
Well you never really lost the part
I mean you never really lost the part, ohh


10. TO THE END OF THE EARTH

Down in the old town
When my mind was wandering
Round empty hallways
When will I be one again?
You're just, making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me

In the old time
You'll never be in and you get never get out
You learn from the family
You'll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth

Under the archways
Where my mind is wallowing
Down to the country
Where I will be well again
You're just, making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me

In the old time
You'll never be in and you get never get out
You learn from the family
You'll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth
To the end of the earth and run
To the end of the earth

Build me a home underground
Free from light and sound
Build me a home in the air
I will run, to the end, to the end
To the end of the earth
And run, to the end, to the end
To the end of the earth
And run, to the end of the earth


11. SHE OPEN HER EYES

Your face in a dream returns
Once in a lifetime comes
And it passes by

Im never on your side
And you must be blind
If you dont know why

She'll always take you for granted
A voice in the back of my mind said
You could be waiting your whole life
For her to open her eyes


12. RUBBERNECKING

I come to
There will be no more drowning
Help, colourless and cowering
You should understand me
When you're understanding

And through all the tears
Should you be alone

Right back, I hope he will pull through
Stand back, first aid is useful
You should understand me
How was I so stupid?

And through all the tears
Should you be alone
After all the tears
Should you be alone

Yes, there's going to be a drowning
Yes, there's going to be a drowning

Half wasted
Face painted
Hold my hand

There will be no more
Please move along
There will be no more
Please move along, oh


13. MORE MATEY

You and me go far
We'd be famous stars
When did it go?
When my self esteem got low
Did you think of me in your tree?
Looking so amused

You and me go far
We'd be famous stars
Then what a place to be
Hiding in my tree

No more there's a boy in me
There's a girl in you
No more cos you used to do what I do to you
Oh, matey one, you ate me

Me is mine is yours
We behind closed doors
Where did it go?
When my toy friend dropped you, girl
Did you think of me?
Probably
I still care for you

You and me go far
We'd be famous stars
And what a place to be
Hiding in my tree

No more there's a boy in me
There's a girl in you
No more cos you used to do what I do to you
Oh, matey one, you ate them
You and me go far
We'd be famous stars...


14. SHE HAS NO TIME (EARLIER VERSION)

You think your days are uneventful
And no one ever thinks about you
She goes her own way
She goes her own way
You say your days are ordinary
And no one ever thinks about you
But we're all the same
And she can hardly breathe without you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

Think about the lonely people
Then think about the day she found you
Or lie to yourself
And see it all dissolve around you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

Lonely people tumble downwards
My heart opens to you
When she says

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time


15. WALNUT TREE

Once there was a great storm,
Pushed my head beneath the waves,
I was gone.

Underneath the walnut tree,
Where you said you'd wait for me,
And I waited a long, long time

I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time.

Why, why do I come here?
Seeking out the memories I hold dear,
'Cause you put your spell on me,
Made me live a memory,
And I'm frozen in just the wrong time.

I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time.


16. GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD

When are you going to come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm,
I should have listened to my old man.

You know you can't hold me forever,
I didn't sign up with you.
I'm not a present for your friends to open,
This boy's too young to be singing the blues.

So goodbye yellow brick road,
Where the dogs of society howl.
You can't plant me in your penthouse,
I'm going back to my plough.

Back to the howling old owl in the woods,
Hunting the horny back toad.
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think you'll do then?
I bet that'll shoot down your plane.
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again

Maybe you'll get a replacement,
There's plenty like me to be found.
Mongrels, who ain't got a penny,
Sniffing for tid-bits like you on the ground


17. THE HAPPY SOLDIER

I've been thinking
Why don't we
Jump onboard some gunship
And sail away to sea

And if I'm seized by enemy
Of any kind
I don't mind
They'll be sorry
Wait and see
The SAS will rescue me

I've been thinking
I'm so bored
What a life to live and die
By the silver sword

And if I'm crashed on stormy seas
The darkness falls and all I see
Is a desert island
That's ok
I'll use the stars to find my way
If I'm drifting to no-man's land
GHQ will lend a hand
And there's nothing king and country wouldn't do for me
(x2)
