1. _ Okichi-san
Sunlight shining kyoko-san
Shades her face behind her fan
Silk kimono, amber comb
Geisha kyoko-san's alone
Moving through the willow leaves
Past the tea house trees
Preparing for the evening play
Kyoko-san would please
In shimoda geisha-san
Tells of lost okichi-san
Taken from the geisha place
To a foreign cold embrace
Bound in duty to perform
Okichi-san was torn
Unhappy okichi-san lived a life forlorn
In shimoda geisha kyoko-san is resting
Lost okichi-san geisha kyoko-san
Different as two can be
Sighing
In shimoda gefu lanterns glow this evening
Through the paper screen
Painted candle's light
Soft against the perfect night sky
In shimoda poor okichi-san is sleeping
Dreams of blossom trees
Heavy on the ground
Scented petals falling so soft
Through the paper screen
Painted candle's light
Soft against the perfume night sky

2. _ Tyrant-tula
It is nothing to live as we do
Day to day we roam
Heart without a home of our own
Dust and passion lay in our throats
Revenge in each word that spoke
Childrens eyes fill our minds as we smoke
Chorus:
But somewhere out in the desert a figure moves at speed
And in his heart he carries the message that they need
We move against the tyrant
Words fall from his lips
The fire inside their eyes is lit
At daybreak freedom calls
We answer as one
From hiding in the hills we enter the burning sun
Danger fills the air and the dawn
Holds a sweet but stale perfume
Women know that soon they may lose
What good are men that love but our slaves
In a country they once called their own?
As they kissed goodbye they have flown
Chorus ii
To be there out in the desert as horses move at speed
And in each heart is carried the message that they need
We move against the tyrant
Words fall from his lips
The fire inside their eyes is lit
At daybreak freedom called
We answered as one
From hiding in the hills we entered the gripping sun
Instrumental

3. _ Jigsaw
When i knew nothing most things seemed very clear
There was a way to take to get too far or near
But now the road is rougher
And life is getting tough
I've had enough, enough of
Chorus:
Jigsaws, all that i ever see
Unsure where i want to be
See-saw, you standing next to me
The edges of my days are all astray
Friend can i take a few of your decisions now
I can not stay this way so i'll make a change somehow
And now the time is later
I don't think i should wait
I must escape, escape from
Chorus
Jigsaw
The way is shattered at your feet it touches you
See-saw
You're upside down, it clutches you, it touches you
Jigsaw
Jigsaw
Jigsaw
Here in the center of an endless hazy maze
I know i lost the way and i don't know nights from days
And now there's no solution
I know that i can't use all the confusion, all the

4. _ Remember
I have her letters
Perfume lingers on every page
Tied with ribbons
Kept with lavender and her lace
The letters are faded
Kept by her side for all her days
And the ribbons
Once held her hair on a younger day
He wrote of the warm spring days
And how tall the grass grew
He wrote of the poppy fields
He said, "tell the children i love them--remember"
There was a poppy
Kept in a frame
By his photograph
The years were so long
They were strong and we must be too
He wrote of the open air
And how brave his friends were
He wrote of the poppy fields
He said, "tell the children of flanders--remember"
Remember

5. _ Ukraine Ways
I can hear brazilian love songs, more every day
They seem stronger on the wind--you don't seem so far away
Someday i'm going to be there, someday i'll be
Standing on your highest mountain looking out across the sea
No longer here so cold and tired
I'm getting out today from ukraine ways
From my childhood i've seen pictures, don't say a word
Decadent scenes of smiling people half the way across the world
When you live each day in colours of stone and gray
Feelings start to rise within you--steal the chance and get away
Much stronger now, i feel so inspired
I'm getting out today from ukraine ways
I can feel your rhythm deep within me
I can see your people dance
Here i stand in the ice and snow
Warm where the cold winds blow
Colours that flash through my mind when i'm dreaming
Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own
Tropical days are the things that i live for
No more ukraine ways
Instrumental
I can feel your rhythm deep within me
I can see your people dance
Here i stand in the ice and snow
Warm where the cold winds blow
Colours that flash through my mind when i'm dreaming
Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own
Tropical days are the things that i live for
No more ukraine ways

6. _ Bonjour Swansong
Couldn't have loved you more but i know
I could have loved you longer
Crying for the moon
Couldn't have loved you less but i know
I could have loved you longer
Over all too soon
Come down to earth, how the time flies
Come down to earth, how the love lies
A broken butterfly
Chorus i:
Trapped in a wheel, a butterfly
I can't conceal the way i feel
Now that you're gone it's been so long
Bonjour swansong
Hiding behind a song and i know
I could have loved you longer
Singing just for you
Couldn't have loved you more but i know
I could have loved you longer
Didn't make it through
Come down to land after so long
Come down to land, bonjour swansong
A broken butterfly
Chorus ii:
Caught on the wing, a butterfly
A broken wing, but still i sing
Now that you're gone it's been so long
Bonjour swansong
And i thought we'd touch eternity
But all we have are memories
I thank you for the sweetness
That you gave to me
Repeat chorus i - chorus ii - chorus i

7. _ Running Away From You
When you get to the top in the small town
Then you find you got friends you never knew about
It's five am but i keep on walkin'
I can't go home for success has locked me out
You see my luck went to his head
He could have kept quiet but instead
Now everyone knows
Chorus:
I'm running away from you
I'm running away from you
I'm running away from you
And your heart
It started off just a small time scandal
The people talk and they smile to win your confidence
Mistaken trust that you took as friendship
Has let you down when you needed to be up
Well all the money in the world
Can't buy the silence of this girl
So now everyone knows
Chorus
And you know that we will always stay
Lovers in a small town kind of way
But the high life called you
I should have known but instead
Chorus
Thinking back to when i first met you
So shy and young as an innocent
You were number one
No real desires i just want to be near you
You took my love, my emotion, then off you ran
My reputation as your flag
You held it high i bet you're glad
That everyone knows
Repeat chorus to end

8. _ Camera Camera
Open up your magazine and see what's inside
I'm sure that you will find me--this is where i hide
Treat me as your fantasy, escape from the day
Into my model existance
I will take you far away
Chorus:
Camera camera, take a picture of me
Look through your lens
Tell me what do you find within your view?
Speak to me while i'm looking at you!
Am i pleasant and kind
All in all just one perfect smile
Or the face of regret
For someone that you've never met?
A schizophrenic, photogenic model of time
A picture of health a real gold mine
Lovely to look at and lovely to hold
A spirit that's broken and a heart that's ice cold
Trying hard to be so pretty since i don't know when?
All my time at work and play spent in this eight by ten
An epitaph of dedication, that's what they said
You know she nearly made it, but she had a child instead
Chorus:
(instrumental to end)

9. _ Faeries (living At The Bottom Of The Garden)
What lies beneath the rowan tree
Magic dust that i may breathe
Starlit night, the mist entwines my fear
A faerie ring untouched by time
Secrets of the inner mind
Come to life before my very eyes
Once like a child i knew fear
"don't turn the light out, i'm afraid of the dark!"
Chorus:
Faeries living at the bottom of the garden
Faeries living at the bottom of the garden
Someone's calling, i am falling--falling, falling ...
Just before the dawn i wake
My heart is cold but it's too late
There is someone out there calling me
So i leave my bed, climb down the stairs
Out the door, the still night air
See beneath the tree--it is me
Once like a child i knew fear
"don't turn the light out, i'm afraid of the dark!
Chorus
"don't turn the light out, i'm afraid of the dark!
Repeat chorus three times
Someone's calling, can't stop falling ...
