And I see forests and it's the 25th of December
and my old man plays the piano for Christmas.
He plays the piano for Christmas.

And we're all there, all the aunties and uncles,
and the angle's on the top of the tree.
Up there o the top of the tree.

Why does he still go on like she's a baby
Saying that's no kind of language for a lady?
He knows she hates that word, that's why he said it.
He can be childish too and she won't forget it.

'Don't tell me I don't understand,'
He said, 'I know I don't understand.
I understood when you were ten,

Show me something worse
Than a child outside a church
Begging with a cardboard box
In a heartless town that hurts and mocks
And on a chair anywhere
I will sit down and cry
And close my eyes

You walked into my life
The light was shinning brite
You were the one I was looking for

I looked deep into your eyes
Just to see the moon light
I thought I'd never love anymore

I don't want excuses
I don't want your smiles
I don't want to feel like we're apart a thousand miles
I don't want your attitude
I don't want your things
But I don't want a phone that never rings
I want your love and I want it now
I want your love and I want it now

Don't drag me down
Just because you're down
Just cuz you're blue
Don't make me too
And though you've found you need more then me
Don't talk to me about being free

That's freedom without love

Don't talk to me in that familiar way
When the keys are in my hand
Don't say that everything is here to stay
And I must try to understand

When I'm trying not to look into your eyes
Trying not to listen to your lies
Trying just to keep hold of myself

know I wasn't good -
Maybe I was even bad -
But I was way too young
To know just what I had.
And if I let you down,
Now I let you go,
But I was so young
And now it's all gone.

Come Hell or high water
You just do as you please
Waste your time when you oughta
Be charming the birds from the trees
A voice straight from heaven
So you like to believe
And who cares if its only
Your poor self you deceive

Um cantinho, um violao,
Este amor, uma cancao,
Pra fazer feliz a quem se ama

Muita calma pra pensar,
E ter tempo pra sonhar
Da janela, ve-se o Corcovado,
O Redentor, que lindo

From the top you can see so far into the distance
Look it's downhill all the way from here
Getting there is quicker like going you just slide
Shouldn't take more then a year


I could almost like you
Now it's nearly over

Oh lover boy to you I belong
But maybe one day you'll wake and you'll find me gone
But lover boy if you call me home, I'll come driving
I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn

Oh lover boy I know you too well
And all of my lonely secrets to you I tell
The highest of highest, the lowest of lows, I'll come driving

If you ever feel the time to drop me a loving line
Maybe you should just think twice
I don't wait around on your advice
You tell me I can go this far, but no more
Try to show me heaven and then slam the door
You offer shelter at a price much too dear
And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears

If I say I'll always stay by your side
Stupid things say some night
Can you tell me I am wrong till I cry
Tell me do you have the right
If I say that seas could never sweep me
Overboard and far away
Do you still say you wouldn't try to keep me
If I lost the will to stay

I won't try to stop you
When you speak of the past
Doubt is over now
And I can join in when you laugh
Fascination makes us ask for more
Than we'd like to know
I needn't explain
I think you know

You are all I need, you are all I need
Oh no, no, here I am, oh no, no, 'cause here I am

You are all I need, you are all I need
Oh no, no, here I am, oh no, no, 'cause here I am

You're about the only thing I need
But then again I don't really want

I walk the city late at night
Does everyone here do the same?
I want to be the things I see
Give every face and place my name

I cross the street, take a right
Pick up the pace, pass a fight
Did I grow up just to stay home?

I walk the city late at night.
Does everyone here do the same?
I want to be the things I see,
Give every face and place my name.
I cross the street, take a right,
Pick up the pace, pass a fight.
Did I grow up just to stay home?
I'm not immune - I love this tune.

You take the name of a man you hardly know
And then you grow up and that name has to go
Married with kids and they don't want to know
About the dreams you had to let go

You're still waiting for a knight in shining armor
To steal you against your will
And while you're waiting and doing no harm

Что со мною? – вроде все, как «и всегда!»
Мимоходом жизнь… И встретила тебя я!…
Раньше думала, – Любовь – так, ерунда!
Цепь, связующая узы навсегда!….

Дом, тоска, лишь были спутниками дня
И – скучалось с Ними, как никогда
А, как Счастье обрела – так поняла –

What is it that I think I need?
Is there love in me that wants to be freed?
Or is it selfishness and ego
We carry with us everywhere that we go?

This feeling that life's incomplete
- do you feel that too?
Do you want what I want?

I step off the train, I'm walking down your street again
And past your door but you don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there
And now you've disappeared somewhere like outer space
You've found some better place

And I miss you (like the desserts miss the rain)
And I miss you, oh (like the desserts miss the rain)

Little Hitler, don't come 'round here again
With your renegade politics, redder-than-thou-disdain
Thought we were on the same side
But with a fistful of nails and your knives from the Clyde

You're a little Hitler now
And you'll grow up heaven knows how

Love, love is strange
Many people take it for a game
Once you've had it you're in an awful fix
'Cause after you've had it you never want to quit
A lot of people, they don't understand
They think lovin' is money in their hand
Your sweet lovin' is better than a kiss
When you leave me those kisses I will miss

London in the low tide of the night
And not a taxi cab in sight.
Anesthetized I start the journey home.
I've been living months alone.
I've been avoiding things -
the phone rings,
I use the answerphone.

How much of yourself do you give away
After someone's left your life in disarray?
It still hurts
But it won't show
Because I'm too proud
So you're never ever gonna know.

I'm on the dark side of the street,

Blown in the winds of mischance
He would stay but that's not his way
What escape for her, she swims in the dark
In too deep but still waves

I'm okay and I don't need his name, thank you
Mine fits me nicely, mine will do
Yeah, mine will do

You never knew the teenage me
And you wouldn't believe
The things you didn't see some pretty some ugly
And the lovely mirrorball reflected back them all
Every triumph every fight under disco light

Come on girl it's alright
Come on girl it's alright now

I'll let a train be my feet if it's too far to walk to you
If the train don't go there
I'll get a jet or a bus
I'm gonna find you
You're mine and I know I'll find you
My head is my only house
Until I find you
I'll walk the meadow plains

You watch the phone
Like it was the TV.
If you're all alone,
Well whose fault can that be?
Your keys, your bag, your car -
They're where they always are.

And the light goes down

I walk the city late at night.
Does everyone here do the same?
I want to be the things I see,
Give every face and place my name.
I cross the street, take a right,
Pick up the pace, pass a fight.
Did I grow up just to stay home?
I'm not immune - I love this tune.

This girl I know needs some shelter
She don't believe anyone can help her
She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage
But you don't want to get involved
You tell her she can manage
And you can't change the way she feels
But you could put your arms around her

I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own.
I don't want to cause any serious damage.
I want to make sure that I can manage,
because I'm not really in your head,
I'm not really in your head.

And I see love and disaffection

Hush your mouth now honey mine
Have you been waiting all this time
To so loudly disagree
Kick the feet from under me
Did you come here to shoot me down
Bury my on my own home ground

Hold your tongue now mother mine

I called you from the hotel phone
I haven't dialled this code before
I'm sleeping later and waking later
I'm eating less and thinking more
And how am I without you?
Am I more myself or less myself?
I feel younger, louder
Like I don't always connect

There's a brown shirt swapped for a thin blue tie
There's a black truth swapped for a thin blue lie
There's a slim man sporting a clean cut dream
There's a slim man courting a wide extreme
There's a fly-blown flag in a dry-bone town
There will be no ships because they've all gone down
There's a man with a medal but he'll never sleep
There are guns in his head, they say the war was cheap

Stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger
And food and love was all but left to hunger.
'Cause when I stray from my truth as I grow older
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.

I think about you on a moonlit night
And the stars all seem to weep.
When there's so much to lose

Don't go, don't go, don't go

Baby, baby, baby
I'm lonely, can't you see?
Baby, baby, baby
Come give your love to me

'Cause I'm just a prisoner

This temperamental side,
The one you say that you can't hide.
D' you ever see yourself -
The way it looks to someone else?
This temperamental trick,
The one you say you can't predict.
You're like an empty cup.
Forgive me if I don't wait up.

I dreamed about you again last night
You never have the same face twice
but I always know its you and
and you're always looking better than you really do
and you really do.

I walk around the whole next day
feeling like a still have something to say

something has come between me and the world that knew
what I thought wild last is falling apart in the face of something new
how can I explain that I had no choice
the sound of the waves fills her ears and drowns out my voice
and I am just too far away for her to believe what I say
she could not hear me, she would not listen anyway

how can I write a letter the post is so slow

Don't say one thing one day
Then something else the next day.
I'm trying to keep up with you
It's hard enough when you speak clearly
But when you're confused
It's like a goods train running through these rooms.

And I'm reading more into your words than you have put into them

Frances keep your mouth shut dear
We don't want the neighbors 'round
With their ugly little schemes
That make the pretty world go 'round
And there's a place in it for every one of us
I'll keep the home fires burning
Only don't make a fuss

Out amongst the walking wounded, every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her and nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew

And no, I'm never gonna let you go
And now I know I had a choice though you never made it clear to me
I thought you never felt it deeply
Now I'm never gonna let you go

I wanted everything for a little while
Why shouldn't I
I wanted to know what it was like
I pushed you too far
And you started laying down the law
Til I didn't love you anymore

Chorus:
