"Anytime At All"

"Anytime At All"


Anytime at all
I would change my life for you
Happiness settles where you are

Anytime at all
I would choose to stay with you
Togetherness is not so far
I love you so

That is why, and it's why
I'm ready to sustain
The pleasure and the pain
Oh and all the crazy turns
With you my love

Anything you need
If it raised a smile in you
I want to bring it to your door

Everything I need
In the sleepy sighing
Of somebody here who needs me more
I love you so

That is why, and it's why
I'm ready to sustain
The pleasure and the pain
Oh and all the crazy turns
With you my love

Anytime at all
To stop those lonely tears that fall
And how they made you feel so small
If not me, who you gonna call?

And that is why, it's why
Its why, its why, it's why
I'm ready to sustain
The pleasure and the pain
Oh and all the crazy turns
With you my love

That is why, that is why
I'm ready to sustain
The pleasure and the pain
Oh and all the crazy turns
With you my love

Anytime at all
I would change my life for you
Happiness settles where you are

"Apple Kisses"

"Apple Kisses"


How sound my contemplating?
Counting on your fingers while they're hesitating
Folded into every fibre of the bed you make
Are you sleeping somewhere?
I'm wide awake

Keep me with you
Hidden in soft vowels and your apple kisses
Keep me with you
Sipping soft vowels from your apple kisses
Keep me with you
When the truth bends and the word misses
Keep me with you
Sipping soft vowels from your apple kisses

It took us so long to accept the changing
Then come the minute and we're rearranging
Flowing into my lap
Like a cat
Raises the sap
Do I make it easy?
Then take it back

Keep me with you
Hidden in soft vowels and your apple kisses
Keep me with you
Sipping soft vowels from your apple kisses
Keep me with you
When the truth bends and the word misses
Keep me with you
Sipping soft vowels from your apple kisses

"Baby I Do"

"Baby I Do"


You ask me if I love you
I tell you babe more than anything
Yes it's true
Yes it's true
I do

With the lights down low
I hear you whisper in my ear
I love you
I love you
I do

Through winter, spring, summer, fall
Your love is all I crave
I learn to love you more and more
With every passing day

If only I could give you it all
But then I always do
For you
For you
I do

Through winter, spring, summer, fall
Your love is all I crave
I learn to love you more and more
With every passing day

You ask me if I want you
I tell you babe more than anything
Yes it's true
Yes it's true
Baby I do

Baby I do...

"Back Where I Belong"

"Back Where I Belong"


Have no faith
Believe me, don't believe in me
I'm gonna let you down
You make it so very easy
He's waiting for me
That's the way I ever want it to be
It's always been the same
Yes it has, do you see. Wanna be where I belong

I belong
What am I supposed to do?
If he were there I wouldn't be with you
And you know the time is wrong
I'm going home back where I belong

You cant loose what you don't have
Making waves wont keep mine from me
I was lonely and there you were
Don't think he's hiding in the backroom
He knows with a wave of his hand
(On my way) you'll be out and I
(On my way) I'll be on my way
(On my way) back where I belong

I belong
If he were there I wouldn't be with you
And you know that it's all I have
I'm telling you baby I can't stop now

He's waiting for me
I gotta go 'cos
I feel his hand
Reminds me how ain't no use in having any other man

"Bilan"

"Bilan"


C'est notre amour usé
C'est ton nom ridicule
C'est le bruit quand tu manges
Tes cadeaux débiles
C'est notre progéniture
C'est toi que je fatigue
C'est toi et c'est moi
Et c'aurait dû etre mieux

C'est le choix que j'ai fait
C'est la fée que tu chois
C'est ton désintérèt
Et mon indifference
C'est ta chanson ringarde
La porte que tu fermes
C'est toi et c'est moi
Et c'aurait dû etre mieux

Ce son des heures, et des jours
Passés à balancer; je m'en vais, je l'aime, je pars, je reste,
Hésitante

C'est le noir du brulé
Le mégot dans l'évier
Ce sont les habitudes qui nous anesthésient
C'est ta dent ébréchée
Pour notre premier baiser
C'est toi et c'est moi
Voilà, c'est comme ça

Si je pouvais dire tout, se je pouvais dire
Tout ce qui m'étouffe, vraiment tout
Ce sont des heures, es des jours
Passés à balancer; je m'en vais, je l'aime, je pars, je reste,
Hésitante

"Blow Wind Blow"

"Blow Wind Blow"


Don't cry
Please don't cry
I will take you somewhere
Where they cant hurt you
I wont let them hurt you now
Let them know that our love knows no shame
And we'll do it time and time and time again
'Till everything comes down

I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid
Blow wind blow
Blow dust into their eyes and
Make them see that they have always been blind

Touch me
I want to wrap you in my arms and
you'll have no reason for crying
Blow wind blow
Blow wind blow
Blow dust into their eyes and help them
realise that they have always been blind
And I could show you something that you would never believe
You could never conceive the joy that I could give you

Take me
Take me
Blow wind blow
Blow wind blow
Blow wind blow dust into their eyes and
let them know that nothing that we do will ever
Never be forgotten

Blow wind blow
Blow
Blow
Blow wind blow

"Blue"

"Blue"


Another northern sky
Another motorway parade
Another day like this
Whatever will be will be
And we will be in Shrews bury (do I have to go)

Do I have to go
Could I ever stay away
And you never know
Tonight our luck could change
And we'll be flying all the way (going all the way)
A late point and I'll be laughing
And Saturday won't seem so bleak
With you, Blue

Ever a stepping stone
Someone's Mickey Mouse affair
We're so unfashionable
But I'm not with you for your stylish hair
Or the seaside air (if we ever get there)
Tell me we've acquired a striker (Stanley)
And a lucrative sponsorship came through (on a free)
Will you, Blue
Can we not buy someone famous
And pull a crowd we can't contain at all
All true, Blue

Maybe we'll never tread the grass that grows around your feet
And you let us in for weighting tables like we live to feed
And not to eat (but we get a seat)
Three points and the living's easy
And every day's a Saturday
With you, true blue
Saturday

"Boys Own"

"Boys Own"


How are you, can I look a little closer
Well let me introduce you to
Say how d'you do believer
So tell me is he young enough
Or could it be hung up enough
And does he help to keep it up when he's handing
It out to please you
Do you ever think the night away
How about the day ain't it getting long
These eggshell hearts you're tripping on

Oh when you've got money you can build a bomb
Oh it's beautiful, touching up your lonely nights
Oh how you shine when you throw all the suckers on
Tired of every single one

Oh you're filth, you're filth, you're filthy
And someone' gonna hose you down
You're gonna be sorry for the way you whore a life around
Now tell me he is young enough
Or could it be hung up enough
Or maybe just hung up enough to keep it up when you're flagging
Do you ever soak the night away
How about the day ain't it getting long
These eggshell hearts you're tripping on

"Bye Bye Blackbird"

"Bye Bye Blackbird"


Pack up all my care and woe
Here I go, singing low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is he
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Oh what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye bye

No one here can love or understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye bye

"Can't Say It Like I Mean It"

"Can't Say It Like I Mean It"


It's easier to forgive someone for
being wrong
Than for being right, isn't it?
And how your angry tears will fall when
all your plans
Don't suit the one you made them for
It comes to this.
It's easier forgetting how you got to shore
When every cloud that blows your way
Is something else to blame me for

Say it like you feel it
You can't say it like you feel it anymore
Say it like I mean it
I can't say it like I mean it anymore

Hold it up to the light, it looks like love
It's what the mirror says
You name it so
But you cut your pretty shapes as
paper flakes
From careful sheets
They blow away
Not made to keep
What if alteration makes a little lie?
When what you paint instead is easier
on the eye
Than what you hide

Say it like you feel it
You don't say it like you feel it anymore
Say it like I mean it
I can't say it like I mean it anymore
Not anymore

There are people who you think you're
gonna love forever
Oh when you should know better
You should know better
Some people only see you
As a move they're making
Another step they're taking
A bet they're staking
There are people who you think
You're gonna love forever
You're gonna stay together
You should know better
Some people don't forgive you
What you give up freely
or that you found it easy
They want to own completely.
There are people who you think you're
gonna love forever
Oh when you should know better
You should know better...
(I can't say it like I mean it anymore)
