Romantic piscean seeks angel in disguise
Chinese-speaking girlfriend big brown eyes
Liverpudlian lady, sophisticated male
Hello partner, tell me love can't fail
And it's you and me in the summertime
We'll be hand in hand down in the park
With a squeeze & a sigh & that twinkle in your eye
And all the sunshine banishes the dark
Do some people wind up with the one that they abhor
In a distant hell-hole room, the third world war
But all I see is films where colourless despair
Meant angry young men with immaculate hair
ooh sometimes...
Get up a voice inside says there's no time for looking
down
Only a pound a word & you're talking to the town
But how do you coin the phrase though
That will set your soul apart
Just to touch a lonely heart
And it's you & me in the summertime
We'll be hand in hand down in the park
With a squeeze & a sigh & that twinkle in your eye
And all the sunshine banishes the dark
And it's you I need in the summertime
As I turn my white skin red
Two peas from the same pod yes we are
Or have I read too much fiction?
Is this how it happens?
How does it happen?
How does it happen?
How does it happen?
Is this how it happens?
Now, right now
You’ve stolen my heart and I want you to remember
now what’ll I do? living alone
you’ve stolen my heart and it hurts me to remember
now where’ll I go to? living alone
and a butterfly in the wind is drifting like I do
it’s dumb - I know what I want to say
but I can’t even take one breath
as night falls I hear voices on the radio
(ooh) I’ll follow their dreams
and wake up alone
and a butterfly in the wind is drifting like I do
it’s dumb - I know what I want to say
but I can’t even take one breath
so now still burning silently away
a storm without the thunder
dusty lane with a song in my brain
and it stoned me to my soul
i climb higher move towards the fire
blaze sun
silver trees and a whispering breeze
are my sight and my sound
the thought of heaven couldn't drag me from the path
when i'm wandering here alone
i climb higher move towards the fire
so blaze sun
watch until it dies slow falling from the sky
plae fading sun
just to be one of a crowd
feet scuttling across the floor
spinning lights round and round
it’s adolescent war
she craves noise and the music blares
girl calls to a boy (and my heart is true, oh to you)
he just stands and stares
just to be one of a crowd
feet scuttling across the floor
spinning lights round and round
and it’s adolescent war
shoes grind kick like crazy
and arms tangling up with hair
shaking them up and down again
and hearts pounding everywhere
she slows down
has the music gone
or has she stayed too long?
ah.. yeah...
hope I'll never wake
when I'm thinking about you
(yeah) hope I'll never wake
cos now I'm thinking about you
two-minute hailstorm then melts into rain
(oh) sing me a rainbow it's sunny again
swallows overhead while the traffic snarls below
could I (could I) keep dreaming for a little while longer
hope I'll never wake
when I'm thinking about you
so that you know - I never want to wake
cos now I'm thinking about you
when you're searching your soul
when you're searching for pleasure
how often, pain is all you find
but when you're coasting along and nobody's trying too hard
you can turn around and like where you are
(Yeah and) I hope I never wake
when I'm thinking about you
and I close my eyes (dear)
now I'll never never wake
why should I stop thinking about you
I can’t wait, forever
miles away dead of night and it’s quiet as the grave
when there’s more in your head than you find in your life
calls for a change
I can’t wait, forever
and the days and the hours and the years
keep turning in my mind
I’ve been waiting forever
he loves me now - he loves me not-
he loves me once again
usual story, another surprise
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
fashion - this time it’s alright
they tickle you with a feather
they tell you you’re sublime
turn on - to each their own
usual story, another surprise
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
fashion - the timing was wrong
your friends are fair weather
you knew it all along
turn on - to each their own
it’s doing my mind in another surprise
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah...)
don’t let them black you out for the evening
sad-happy sufferer no no no
don’t let them crack you
try not to feel it
as long as they’re watching your show this time
see you walking, see you talking
recollection on streets you used to know
forgotten pleasure smoulder
images fade but the town won’t let them go
sleepwalking, see you talking
feel the city inside you
(ooh) leave this city behind you
drive wherever the roads will take you to
down beside a river frozen brown
January days and their scarecrow trees
so cold - feel your ears burn
see you walking, see you talking
feel the city inside you
(ooh) leave this city behind you
past and present
they converge on every side
the wires all get tangled
when now and then collide
bittersweet taste of a time and another place before
sleep walking, see you talking
feel the city inside you
(ooh) feel this city define you
(yeah) leave this city behind you
you ask me why I’ll tell you then
two worlds collide we bury them
we’re far too drunk to see these things as they are
you painted me and I sat quite still
a tiny room in Notting Hill
it was far too dark to look at things as they are
I’ve seen the light vanish out of your eyes
(aah oh no, from your eyes, aah oh)
so goodbye
you tell me now I’m young and wild
you spare the rod and you spoil the child
I’d love to stay but I think I’m off to Japan anyway
I’ve seen the light vanish out of your eyes
(aah oh no, from your eyes, aah oh)
so goodbye
(from your eyes, aah oh no, where has it gone?)
your eyes have lost their shine
& I'm standing on a platform
Now I'm staring from a train
& all the trees roll back beside but I'm so oblivious
To the dark to the light
It's all the same
You gave me so much
& now it's of the earth
& it makes me cry
It can makes me cry
& you're standing here beside me
In a picture in a frame
& your voice could never fade it's so familiar
Things you said in my head
Every day
You gave me so much
& now it's of the earth
& it makes me cry
It can make me cry
You're with me so much
Through you're never with me anymore
& it makes me cry
It can make me cry
It's 4 in the morning July of '69
Me & my sister
We crept down like shadows
They're bringing the moon right down to our sitting-room
Static & silence & a monochrome vision
They're dancing around
Slow puppets silver ground
& the world was watching with joy
We hear a voice from above & it's history
& we stayed awake all night
& something is said and the whole room laughs aloud
Me & my sister
Looking on like shadows
The end of an age as we watched them walk in a glow
Lost in space, but I don't know where it is
They're dancing around
Slow puppets silver ground
& the stars & stripes in the sand
We hear a voice from above & it's history
& we stayed awake all night
They're dancing around
It sends a shiver down my spine
& I run to look in the sky and
I half expect to hear them asking to come down
(oh) Will they fly or will they fall?
To be excited by a long late night
