Vapour Trails

When I die
Let me fly
Up in the clouds
Up in the sky
Time is all gone
So keep on the run
And follow the sun
Set me free
Let me be
Nothing and everything
As far as the eye can see
I don't understand it thats true
But nothing has ever made so much sense to me
Just watching those vapour trails reach across the sky
Night and day,it's time to play
Wake up in yesterday, then we start again
It's never cold and you never get old
No one will ever take that away from me
I don't understand it thats true
But nothing has ever made so much sense to me

Life Gets In The Way
03:58

Life gets in the way of living,living
And love gets in the way of giving
All the love that you have got to give
The cycles and the chaos
They go hand in hand
If you're looking for the answer
Its written in the sand
(That crunches beneath your feet
See the water washing it away)
A glass half empty
A horn of plenty
A scene of many goings on
I've got to come clean
About my fading dream
I like you, your T-shirt makes me laugh
So tell me how it broke your heart in two

Minds In Limbo
04:01
|
|||
|
With my mind in limbo
And my legs akimbo
I've got to put it down
I've got to make a sound
Something deep inside
Muddy waters crystal clear
Something wants to get out of here
Open up breathe some air
Try to ride it out, try to ride it out
Open up deep inside
Jump the valley if its wide
Giant sized walk away
Leap into another day, into another day
Harsh words in the wind
Flat calm in the palm of my hand
A square deal and three meals
There's no need to be unkempt
Minds in limbo
Leap in to another day, in to another day

My Lonely Friend

Hello, hello, hello, my lonely friend
Hello my lonely friend see me through to the end
When the sun goes down beneath the ground
My lonely friend you're still around for me
I know, I know, I know, yes it's time to move on again
But nothing it quite the same when you hear that old song again
You don't have to tell me what I already know
Lets smash another bottle and do it all over again
Here's looking at you you're my lonely
Here's looking at you till we meet again
Now that we're all alone there are so many things to say
But words are a waste of time, let the wind blow them all away
You don't have to tell me what I already know
Lets smash another bottle and do it all over again
You know and I know to that the clouds will soon blow away
Someday i know my friend that they'll take me away with them
As the sun comes up beneath the ground
My lonely friend you'll be around for me

Bad Day Good Night
05:34

Bad day, good night
Wrap it up in Black and white.
Shut the door and switch it on
I think I’ve found my favourite song.
In a daze for seven days
Thinking ‘bout what people say
Make some rules and break them all
Build some walls and watch them fall.
Watch the walls come down at night
When I’m alone and the stars are bright.
Crashing waves and ticking clock
Hindsight rules forget me not.
All you can eat if you suspend belief
At a table set for one.
You might not feel the same way
When you wake up with the sun.
Close your eyes and open up
Find the word thats not enough.
Nothing down so its up to you
I’ll lift my game if you tell me the rules.
All dressed up and nowhere to go
So climb aboard and get below.
Pop the cork and find a chair
‘Cause love and war there’s nothing fair.

Tied up at a rate of knots
Slowed down by the speed of light
One more list call it things to do.
Another chapter opens up
Now its time to be saving up
At your age I think you ought to know.
You’ll find a way to chauffeur drive away
Don’t come undone and watch it float away
Leave an open door and
Get high on your own supply
Get high on your own supply
Get high on your own supply
Tomorrow never comes alone
Something always tags along
I’ll get by the by because of you.
On a day when things are still
I’ll tap the core a mine the heart of things
Keep on stabbing in the dark

My Guiding Light
04:36
|

I got a way avoiding all the things that are falling
But you better be listening when the voices are calling
Ooh ooh ooh Why’d you have to take so long
Ooh ooh ooh I only want to sing my song
I got a natural feeling and I gotta concede it
But you better believe it when I tell you I mean it
Ooh ooh ooh Wy’d you have to turn me on
Ooh ooh ooh You’re only going to get it wrong
You’ll be my guiding light,like a face in the crowd
So I’ll pin my hopes on a passing cloud
No more sitting alone with the dial tone
Am I falling apart or is this just a dream
I couldn’t get any higher but that don’t mean that I’m flying
I see the people below me and they can tell that I’m lying
Ooh ooh ooh someone better take me home
Ooh ooh ooh ‘cause things are getting close to the bone
You’ll be my guiding Light……

Nowhere to run away
Nowhere to run and hide
You’ve really got it bad
You’ve got it deep inside.
Somethings are hard to find
Somethings are left unsaid
Nothing is what it seems
Some books are left unread.
Tick-tocking, the temperature’s dropping
Someone else is in the room
The penny’s dropping
There’s nothing else stopping
You from making up your mind.
Something has gone astray
You left them all behind
You went another way
There’s something you had to find.
Too much is not enough
When you want what you can’t have
Everyone fills you up
With so much good advice
Whats cooking
There’s no one else looking
How about we take a ride
Stop talking
There’s nobody listening
It doesn’t matter if you lied.

Yesterday Is All Over
05:37
|
|||
|
I feel like a country song
Lonely as a bar full of people
I keep feeling I’ve done something wrong
And talk is so feeble
So go down, down, down
Don’t make a sound, sound, sound
Look around, ‘round,’round
At what you’ve found, found, found
Try your best to stay under
‘Cause yesterday is all over, now…….
All those moments and all those dreams
All those wishes and crazy schemes
They can seem a long way off
They can be as strange as other people.
Just let it go without a care
Thats not the wind flowing through your hair
Everything is in slow motion
And we’re not coming up for air

Hallelujah

Hallelujah I’ve just seen the light
What’s it to you if it’s just tonight
So let the blood of christ flow through me like
A fire light beneath the starry sky.
I know enough to know that I don’t know
The reasons why or what I’m looking for
So let the sun come up and paint a light
A golden light across the T.V. screen.
The days are cold and I can see the light
Outside they’re carving out the neighbourhood
I’m inclined to let the good fight go
And take it off and leave it all behind.
