unknown

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground
But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down

Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings
And you, you must try to fly

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

I've been searching for the answers
I've been diving in the sea
I've been haunted by the shadows
Of what we could have been

And its not that I'm broken
And it isn't that I bleed
But when you pulled the stars from the heavens
It got so hard to see

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now, we had our time
But you leave me, blind
Will you leave me, blind

Dove for the treasures
We went deep down for the pearls
And we could have cracked it open
Yeah, it could have been so good

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now, we had our time

I feel this pain, I know I'm alive
If love is wrong, then I'm doing time
I feel myself, small like a child
My love has gone, how will I survive
It's everywhere, it's in the trees
All those stars and I can't see
I'm blind, I'm blind, I'm blind

And how will you think of us
A crease along your hand
Lying at these temple doors
Beautiful and sad

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now , we had our time
But you leave me, blind
Will you leave me, blind

Its in the trees
All those stars and I can't see
Oh, you leave me, you leave
You leave me, blind, blind
Ooh, you leave me, you leave me
Its in the trees
You leave me, you leave me
Blind

I've lost my headlights
Dark lets me see too much
And i'm just groping
for anything to touch

Am I a seabird
I have the strangest cry
Am i just drifting
Am i too far inside

Everything's changing
Everything's changing my mind
I'm going backwards
Backwards to water from wine

I can hear thunder
But I am made of stone
I'm reaching out
I'm reaching out but I'm still alone

I look for my body
but it just disappears
Nodody knows me
Everything feels like years

Everything's changing
Everything's changing my mind
I'm going backwards
Backwards to water from wine

I look for joy
It's in the cracks sometimes
I can hear music
but it's been locked inside

Everything's changing
Everything's changing my mind
I'm going backwards
Backwards to water from wine

Everything's changing
Everything's changing my mind
I'm going backwards
Backwards to water from wine

Every night owns me, nothing is holy
Every night owns me, nothing is holy

I'm sorry I just get worried sometimes
And it comes out like anger
And then I take myself by surprise
I find how I feel for you

With a little bit of time
I might come of nothing
With a little bit of time
You might feel the same
'Cause you are my days and nights
You don't realize
You're my days
You're my nights

Each minute is a wide open space
There's too much I know for sure
Tonight I probably push you away
All I want is to feel you close

With a little bit of time
I might come of nothing
With a little bit of time
You might feel the same
'Cause you are my days and nights
You don't realize

I don't wanna feel this strong if it makes me weak
I don't wanna hold on to what's killing me
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

Just like the moon and the tide
I'm strapped in my senses
These feelings are mountains sometimes
It's not good pretending

With a little bit of time
I might come of nothing
With a little bit of time
You might feel the pain
'Cause you are my days and nights
You don't realize
'Cause you are my days and nights
I don't wanna feel this strong if it makes me weak
I don't wanna hold on to what's killing me
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know

Sitting here on the water's edge
Now that the storm is gone
First time in years it feels like
Nothing's wrong
There've been a lot of changes
I was so lost for a while
Sitting here I remember
How it's easy to smile

Oh let me grow young
Like a brand new day
Like I've just begun
Like a shiver like a rush
Like a soul I might touch
Let me grow young

Nobody to tell me where to go
Nobody to call
Just me and the kiskedees
And my guitar

Oh let me grow young
Like a brand new day
Like I've just begun
Like a shiver like a rush
Like a soul I might touch
Let me grow young

Gotta try to remember this feeling
Gotta store it up inside
Bring it out when it's cold in the city
And I'm worried and tired

Oh let me grow young
Like a brand new day
Like I've just begun
Like a shiver like a rush
Like a soul I might touch
Let me grow young

Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar,
Dancing on the light from star to star.
Far across the moonbeam I know that's who you are,
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
Somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.

I am just a dreamer, and you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That moment when time just slips away,
Between us on our foggy trip.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.
Yeah yeah, hi hi, yeah, blown away
Yeah yeah, hi hi, yeah.

I am just a dreamer, and you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That moment when time just slips away,
Between us on our foggy trip.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.

Sunday is Gloomy,
My hours are slumberless,
Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless
Little white flowers will never awaken you
Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thought of ever returning you
Would they be angry if I thought of joining you
Gloomy Sunday

Sunday is gloomy
With shadows I spend it all
My heart and I have decided to end it all
Soon there'll be flowers and prayers that are sad,
I know, let them not weep,
Let them know that I'm glad to go

Death is no dream,
For in death I'm caressing you
With the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you
Gloomy Sunday

Dreaming
I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you
Asleep in the deep of
My heart
Dear

Darling I hope that my dream never haunted you
My heart is telling you how much I wanted you
Gloomy Sunday

If you can play on the fiddle
How's about a British reel?
Speaking in quotation
As railhead towns feel the steel
Water froze

Clear as winter ice
This is your paradise

There ain't no need for you
There ain't no need for you
Go straight to hell boys
Straight to hell boys

You wanna join in a chorus
Of the Amerasian blues
When it's Christmas in Ho Chi Minh
Oh poppa San take me home
See me got a photograph of you Mamma-san
Oh poppa San take me home
Oh take me home

Straight to hell
Go straight to hell
Go straight to hell boys
Straight to hell

Can you cough it up loud and strong
The immigrants
Wanna sing all night long
It could be anywhere
Could be any hemisphere
And no man's land
And there ain't no asylum here
King Solomon he never lived 'round here

Go straight to hell boys
Go straight to hell boys
Straight to hell
Straight to hell boys

The time I like is the rush hour, 'cos I like the rush
The pushing of the people, I like it all so much
Such a mass of motion, do not know where it goes
I move with the movement and ... I have the touch

I'm waiting for ignition, I'm looking for a spark
Any chance collision and I light up in the dark
There you stand before me, all that fur and all that hair
Oh, do I dare ... I have the touch

Only, only
Wanting contact
Only, only
I'm wanting contact
Only, only
I'm wanting contact with you
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Give me the thing I understand
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Shake hands, shake hands.

Any social occasion, hello, how do you do
All those introductions, I never miss my cue
So before a question, so before a doubt
My hand moves out and ... I have the touch

Only, only
Wanting contact
Only, only
I'm wanting contact
Only, only
I'm wanting contact with you
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Give me the thing I understand
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Shake those hands

Pull my chin, stroke my hair, scratch my nose, hug my knees
Try drink, food, cigarette, the tension will not ease
I tap my fingers, fold my arms, breathe in deep, cross my legs
Shrug my shoulders, stretch my back, but nothing seems to please

I need contact
I need contact
Nothing seems to please
I need contact
Tac-tacatac, tac-tacatac
I need contact
Nothing seems to please
I need contact
Tac-tacatac, tac-tacatac
I need contact
Ah, Tac-tacatac
I need contact
Nothing seems to please
I need contact
I need contact.

Come to wind, carry it from the sun.
Come to rain, turns up the corners of my mouth.

And I like this wide open view
But I'm not looking further than you

Come to stranger, wants to know my name.
Come tomorrow, I still feel the same.

And I like this wide open view
But I'm not looking further than you

Oh, on a day like this you can see forever but that's okay.

And I like this wide open view
But I'm not looking further than you

Come to moon, floating like a fish.
Come to first star, who'd have thought it'd come to this.

And I like this wide open view
But I'm not looking further than you

And I like this wide open view
But I'm not looking further than you

Flying as she falls

The leaves have turned and she has known.
And she tells me she can't let him go.
And she looks to the moon for answers.
And she looks inside and she knows.

She dresses by the window.
Finds reflection in the pane.
She looks towards the winter
And her hair falls around her like rain.

She's sighing with September.
She would like to run and hide.
She's wrapped up in confusion.
She unfolds like paper dolls
But she's flying as she falls.

The birds have gone and she has known,
For she follows the arc of their flight.
And the softness has gone from the daylight.
And the shadows have grown into night.

She's sighing with September.
She would like to run and hide.
She's wrapped up in confusion.
She unfolds like paper dolls
But she's flying as she falls.

Soon will come cool October.
It will rise all around her like fire.
And she gathers her courage like harvest.
And she gathers her thoughts and desires.

She's sighing with September.
She would like to run and hide.
She's wrapped up in confusion.
She unfolds like paper dolls
But she's flying as she falls.

She will not run and hide.
She will take it all in stride.
And she will...
She will...
She will... be flying as she falls.
