unknown

At last it's over,
I knew i could not hold him,
His love for freedom
Was far too strong.

But though he's gone now
My life is just beginning,
I'll soon forget him,
I'll soon forget him,
I must forget him, lord!

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love that waits for me.

Will i remember,
Will i still hear him whisper ?
Will i still feel his
Lips on mine ?

In dreams i see him,
Perhaps he'll stay forever
And all i'm wishing
And all i'm hoping
And all my longing, too.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love that waits for me.

He made me happy
And though i suffered, too,
There's no mistaking
Our love was true.

But such a sweet love
Just wasn't meant to be
And it's all over
Yes, it's all over,
And now it's done i'll start anew.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love beginning.

Jeane
The low-life has lost its appeal
And i'm tired of walking these streets
To a room with a cupboard bare

Jeane
I'm not sure what happiness means
But i look in your eyes
And i know
That it isn't there


We tried, we failed
We tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried


Jeane
There's ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know it's a grave ?


But you still hold a greedy grace
As you tidy the place
But it'll never be clean
Jeane


We tried, we failed
We tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried


Oh ...
Cash on the nail
It's just a fairytale
Oh ...
And i don't believe in magic anymore
Jeane


But i think you know
I really think you know
Oh ...
I think you know the truth
Jeane


Oh ...


No heavenly choir
Not for me and not for you
Because i think that you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth
Oh ...
Jeane


That we tried, and we failed
That we tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
Oh ...
Oh ...
Jeane

"um ... this song was written by ... erm, erm ..."
What would you sell ?
Loose glasses and suit
Heart and soul
Won't wear out


That's not enough !
I wonder what's inside
Fish fillet knife
Can cut
Right through my eye ...


I'm looking for some words
To call my own
Worn-out phrases
And a hand-me-down


They'll knock me
Under where i stand
Sad on his back
In a corned beef pan


Going under
You can feel them pulling me down
To the rust inside ...


This is the way ...
Franken-star is born


Bits and pieces
Others have worn
All held together by a management glue
Too much glue
Watch the stars turn blue
Turn blue
Turn blue
Turn blue
Turn blue


I'm going under
You can feel them pulling me down
To the halls of rust
Eeh ...


I, i, i, i, i ...


Thankyou ...

Over the moor, take me to the moor
Dig a shallow grave
And i'll lay me down

Over the moor, take me to the moor
Dig a shallow grave
And i'll lay me down


Lesley-anne, with your pretty white beads
Oh john, you'll never be a man
You'll never see your home again
Oh manchester, so much to answer for


Edward, see those alluring lights ?
Tonight will be your very last night


A woman said : "i know my son is dead
I'll never rest my hands on his sacred head"


Hindley wakes and hindley says :
Hindley wakes, hindley wakes, hindley wakes, and says :
"oh, wherever he has gone, i have gone"


But fresh lilaced moorland fields
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death
But fresh lilaced moorland fields
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death


Hindley wakes and says :
Hindley wakes, hindley wakes, hindley wakes, and says :
"oh, whatever he has done, i have done"


But this is no easy ride
For a child cries :


"find me ... find me, nothing more
We are on a sullen misty moor
We may be dead and we may be gone
But we will be, we will be, we will be, right by your side
Until the day you die
This is no easy ride
We will haunt you when you laugh
Yes, you could say we're a team
You might sleep
You might sleep
You might sleep
But you will never dream !
Oh, you might sleep
But you will never dream !
You might sleep
But you will never dream !

Oh manchester, so much to answer for
Oh manchester, so much to answer for

Oh, find me, find me !
Find me !
I'll haunt you when you laugh
Oh, i'll haunt you when you laugh
You might sleep
But you will ...
Oh ...


Over the moors, i'm on the moors
Oh, over the moors
Oh, the child is on the moors

Hate, love and war
Force emotions to the fore
But not for me, of course
Of course
I keep mine hidden
Oh ...

I keep mine hidden
But it's so easy for you
Because you let yours flail
Into public view
Oh, oh ...


Yellow and green
A stumbling block
I'm a twenty-digit combination to unlock
With a past where to be 'touched'
Meant to be 'mental'


Ooh, i keep mine hidden
The lies are so easy for you
Because you let yours slide
Into public view
Oh ...


Use your loaf !

Here her head, she lay
Until she'd rise and say :
"i'm starved of mirth;
Let's go and trip a dwarf"

Oh, what to be done with her ?
Oh, what to be done with her ?
Oh ...


Ice water for blood
With neither heart or spine
And then just
To pass time; let us go and rob the blind


What to be done with her ?
I ask myself :
What to be said of her ?
Oh ...


But when she calls me, i do not walk, i run
Oh, when she calls, i do not walk, i run
Oh ...
Oh ...


Oh ...

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows i'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then i found a job
And heaven knows i'm miserable now


In my life
Why do i give valuable time
To people who don't care if i live or die ?


Two lovers entwined pass me by
And heaven knows i'm miserable now


I was looking for a job, and then i found a job
And heaven knows i'm miserable now


In my life
Oh, why do i give valuable time
To people who don't care if i live or die ?


What she asked of me at the end of the day
Caligula would have blushed


"oh, you've been in the house too long" she said
And i (naturally) fled


In my life
Why do i smile
At people who i'd much rather kick in the eye ?


I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows i'm miserable now


"oh, you've been in the house too long" she said
And i (naturally) fled


In my life
Oh, why do i give valuable time

Sha la la la la la la la

I want a boy for my birthday
That's what i've been dreaming of
I won't have a happy birthday
Without a boy to love


Don't want a bracelet with golden charms
Cuz that won't fill my empty arms
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
I want a boy to love


Sha la la la la la la la
(oh oh oh)
Sha la la sha la la


I want a boy for my birthday
That's the present that i need the most
Just a boy for my birthday
One who'll love to hold me close
Doesn't matter if he's short or tall
Just as long as he gives his all
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
I want a boy to love


I want a boy who's gonna treat me right
(yeah yeah yeah)
Hug me, kiss me, squeeze me day and night


I want a boy for my birthday
He doesn't have to be too smart
Just as long as he loves me
And keeps me in his heart
I want a boy to comfort me
And treat me tenderly
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
I want a boy to love

Sha la la la la la la la
(i want a boy to love)
Sha la la sha la la
(i want a boy for my birthday)
