Every time I think about it, it's always the same The look you gave, it went right through me It's ten o'clock at night here, twelve o'clock your time The phone connects us though, over there it's bright I wonder how you're doing, did you find your man? Is this the truth we're speaking, or just a plan? When you realise, you've got something When you realise, you've not really bluffing You know it'll work, I'm telling you it'll work (It'll work) I lie in bed at night, three weeks away I know it'll be alright, the moon's getting bigger every day The weather's turning colder now, It's summer the other side of the world, Gonna catch a big fat plane to my favourite girl And when you realise, what it means for someone That's when you realise, what it means to someone To know it'll work, I know it'll work (Oh yeah) Every time I think about it, it's always the same Every time I think about it, I sing out your name Every time I think about it... Every time I think about it, it went right through me Waiting Waiting Waiting, for news of you Waiting I feel this charity It's coming up inside The wonders of your wheels and all of your lies You're talking open words There's nothing to hide I know this is as worse as I feel in my life Oh feeling it Oh feeling it Oh feeling it Oh feeling it Feeling it Speaking it Knowing it Showing it Feeling it Knowing it Speaking it Showing it There's a light in your home, it's not so bright But I can see it almost every night I put my mind to yours, there's nothing wrong Just as if it seems to feel it coming on Don't think about it Don't think about it Every time I think about it, it's always the same The look you gave, it went right through me
I stand before the refuge tree With all my negativity I stand before the refuge tree With all my insecurity Round up the usual suspects Call out the neutral crew We're all as guilty as each other Me and you Tell me are you lonesome Tell me do you need someone Tell me are you lonesome I begin to stumble It happens to us all Your eyes are open like the day Your face is bright and shining I know these feelings stand to me There's nothing needs refining Your eyes are open anyway Your face is open like the day There's no-one here that can explain The truth I feel about you What I feel about you The gift that you are about... Tell me do you need someone Tell me are you lonesome Tell me do you need someone Tell me are you lonesome I begin to fumble It happens to us all I stand before the refuge tree With all my sensitivity I stand before the refuge tree With all my sense of history And I stand before the refuge tree There's one of you and one of me And one of us is in between The family is what I mean The family And the gift that they give... Tell me are you lonesome
The first time that I saw you I knew my mind All my best intentions I left behind The secret code is broken I found it out When the door is open There's no room for doubt And all I ever wanted was to meet my special one All the friends that gathered, I knew each and every one They can't do what you've done They can't do what you've done The torch that you must carry Is burning me I saw you with your boyfriend He's bigger than me The pretty dress I bought you I wear myself Wipes away the memory of someone else The mirror ball is spinning like a golden fatso moon The girls of grace and glamour have all arrived too soon They can't do what you've done They can't do what you've done They can't do what you've done They can't do what you've done There's a poet in the bathroom and he's boring everyone Newspaper reporters spoiling all the fun With their lies and crimes and piles of rhymes That don't help anyone... You can't do what you've done You can't do what you've done You can't do what you've done You can't do what you've done What you've done What you've done What you've done What you've done
Road rage...

Can you take this? My girlfriend is a guru She knows just what to do My girlfriend is a guru She knows just what to do It's sweeter than excitement It's sweeter than excitement It's sweeter It's sweeter So much sweeter

I remember long ago Blowing bubbles on the Lisburn Road How then could I know Well I was young before I was old I remember on the bridge In a place they said was privileged Watching the boats go up and down I was attached and detached from my terrible town And I decided to fly Oh I decided to try I remember long ago Lived in a house on Whitebeam Road The summers came as they go I spend my life carrying granite stone My mother, father, brother, three Another one and that made me I cut my shin and looked up high Something deep told me that I I decided to fly Oh I decided to try I remember long ago I grew up in the South Seas The horizon so far away Now it's become a part of me I decided to fly I decided to try I decided to fly You and I decided to try I decided to fly You and I decided to try
The day you were born it must have been painted on the sand That you would fall asleep upon my hand And the day I first saw you in my heart I made a plan To follow you to the sun And I can hear it in the wind calling now I've seen the faces in the clouds Come on, come out, come with me, come through and share my plan Run with me through the sand Come on, come out, be open, be true and be the one I'd follow you to the sun And I can hear it in the wind calling now I've seen the faces in the clouds The day you were born it must have been painted on the sand That you would fall asleep upon my hand And the day I first saw you in my heart I made a plan To follow you to the sun To lead you to the water And to dance with you in the rain The rain The rain
