I been people watching again I think they watch me too There's a new girl at the coffee house She's got first day blues She's got red hair and a motorbike And lime green shoes A mohair hat and a summers dress And black tattoos And then she fly away In her high heel feet And her fire dress And she's throwing things That took her time to save it up And buy what's special Then she look around And sees what's left And it's nothing much Nothing precious at all Nothing precious at all Gonna drink herself to sleep tonight And that's nothing new She goes out almost nine every night And gets high as the moon She takes photographs of American cars Where she went to school She likes fireworks and candlelight And fake bad news And then she fly away In her high heel feet And her fire dress And she's throwing things That took her time to save it up And buy what's special Then she look around And sees what's left And it's nothing much Nothing precious at all Nothing precious at all Nothing precious at all Is she a loner or a mother's girl That's up to you She got fine lines round her tired eyes And they're painted blue She could sleep around with anyone If she wanted to Gotta go my time is up right now Got stuff to do
Rainbows And Pots of Gold
I heard you're doing well Selling art and everything I like you're stuff; good for you I'll buy a piece or maybe two Do you ever think of me? Do you remember all our stupid dreams? Rainbows and pots of gold So much to prove before we got old I took you places round the world I miss you're face sometimes you know You took my picture a thousand times I bought them back; I don't mind I lost my way but found my track I'm sorry if I never listened back I've been round; I've been up and down And you missed the one we dressed like clowns And how's your car and how's your life? How's my friend; when's she gonna be your wife? I'm sitting up writing down These things I sometimes dream about I knew your number off by heart It's the only one I like to talk It wasn't me using you I trusted you; one of the few And we had some laughs; had some rows But in the end the walls came down You like the place I'm living now It's a shame you can't come around And I've grown a lot since we last spoke Got myself together; fixed what was broke I wonder if we'll talk again Or drink together just like then I suppose it's different now it's new Whoever points the finger at who I really hope you're happy both of you And maybe sometimes you miss me too
I miss you now
I feel I wanna hold you, wanna tell you that you'll be alright Sang this song today, it's recalling your pictures all in my mind I miss you now I miss you now Although we're getting old now my old friends gonna leave me and die
I'm helpless, it's gonna get us before we get this, I wanna kiss you goodbye I miss you now I miss you now I miss you now I feel I wanna hold you, wanna tell you that you'll be alright I'm helpless, it's gonna get us before we get this, I wanna kiss you goodbye I miss you now I miss you now I miss you now
High As The Ceiling
Come on get up high as the ceiling Get up on the floor Think I lost my mind and my feeling Been there all before Find my way Free my soul Blind and loaded Lined and sorted It's time...... If you think you'll make a fool out of me I got a little something up my sleeve I can think of better places to be So get yourself down on the street So come on take my hand if you need me Just knock up on my door You got to stop your mind from dreaming And live your life some more Find my way Free my soul Wine and water Shine light on my time...... If you think you'll make a fool out of me I got a little something up my sleeve I can think of better places to be So get yourself down on the street Come on get up high as the ceiling Leave me a light at home I'm running out of time and I need it I need a lifetime more Find my way Free my soul Eyes wide open Time is on my side...... If you think you'll make a fool out of me I got a little something up my sleeve I can think of better places to be So get yourself down on the street Come on get up high as the ceiling Get up on the floor Come on get up high as the ceiling Get up on the floor Come on get up high as the ceiling Get up on the floor Think I lost my mind and my feeling Been there all before
Since I Told You It's Over
Black and blue from the wind and the rain Said I'm sorry for the lies and the pain I never ever meant to make you cry If I could take you back, you know, I would, I wanna burn up and die So take a look at me now Since I told you it's over You got a hole in your heart I'll find a four leaf clover You can't tell me this now This far down the line That you're never, ever gonna get over me You've seen a cross, it's a cross I bear You're drinking, hard up, living without a hope or a care You're making do to please, see what makes you smile You're not around for long, you gotta see what's gonna move your life right along So take a look at me now Since I told you it's over You got a hole in your heart I'll find a four leaf clover You can't tell me this now This far down the line That you're never, ever gonna get over me I'm lost I'm cold I'm getting old My head is filled with lies I told I've been down I've been around But I've fallen on my own two feet And I've left you out to drown I never meant for that I look around, sometimes I stare I think back now and then, I hope you know I care I walked away that day, trying to treat you right But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you freezing outside So take a look at me now Since I told you it's over You got a hole in your heart I'll find a four leaf clover You can't tell me this now This far down the line That you're never, ever gonna get over me Never get over me Never get over me But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you freezing outside So take a look at me now Since I told you it's over You got a hole in your heart I'll find a four leaf clover You can't tell me this now This far down the line (to fade)
Lying To Myself
We don't belong I'm not myself I've been away I'm back again You've been the same I've been myself I've been before I'll go again Can't help myself I'm lying to myself again Lying to myself again I'm lying to myself again I'll take on day by day I did you wrong I won't forget You don't know why I don't myself Get lost sometimes That's just my head When suns go down They come up again Can't help myself I'm lying to myself again Lying to myself again I'm lying to myself again I'll take on day by day I'll take on day by day
