08. Inside Out

I've been learning my lines
I've been chasing my time
I've been changing my mind
For a while

I've been boring my friends
I've been burning both ends
I've been rounding the bend

The night the kid left Amsterdam
The night the kid left Amsterdam
The night the kid left Amsterdam
The night the kid left Amsterdam

The night the kid left Amsterdam
The night the kid left Amsterdam
The night the kid left Amsterdam

Angeline
Oh Angeline, did you hear me singing,
Singing for love in the heat of the night
Oh Angeline, did you hear me singing
And crying your name in the hot spotlight.
It really don’t matter, if you leave in the morning
It really don’t matter, if you never come home
It really don’t matter, if you take to another

Well the man upstairs always lends an ear
To the man downstairs
Even though he doesn't care
The man up the spiral staircase
Would love to sympathise
With the man downstairs and
The same old phrase

Time after time, I held it just to watch it die
Line after line, I loved it just to watch it cry

Bless the weather that brought you to me
Curse the storm that takes you away
Bless the weather that brought you to me
Curse the storm that takes you home

Call me crazy, call me sad
Call me lazy, call me bad
But you move me, move me i'm moving on
Cos you move me, move me, moving on

What could be sweeter than love?
What could be sweeter than you and me

And now the air is clear, my dear and you're still here and so
A certain surprise, give you my sweet certain surprise
Silence has never been my thing
I'm one of those, I love to shout and sing about my love
Sweet flying dove, there's no one above, sweet certain surprise

Soft and certain, tell the moon? My love is how I think of you and so
With certain surprise, give you my sweet certain surprise

Everyone I talk to says they want
Go and sings your praises
With all those eggs in just one basket
You've been honey for the asking
All the company you keep
All those dreams and in a sleep
I love to watch you

Did you hear a story about Cocaine Lil?
She had a cocaine house on cocaine hill
She had a cocaine dog and a cocaine cat
She even had a cocaine rat
And it's all round my brain
Been walking round 10th Street and Main
I've been looking for a girlie to give me cocaine
Cocaine's sure running round my brain

Said she's coming in on the high tide
She's a healer, she can see
She's the sapphire
I know she left when I was a baby
But she never let me down
She's coming back to take me away
She's coming in on time

If you kissed the sun right out of the sky for me
And if you told me all the lies that I deserve
And if you laid all night in the rain for me

Well, I couldn't love you more
Just couldn't love you more
I couldn't love you more

Oh darling, it's gonna be late when we get back home
Can you wait till we get back home?
We don't go walking and a-reeling and a-rocking round the whole round town
Walking and talking round the whole round town
Don't go rolling and a-rocking round the whole round town
Let another man take you home
Let another man take you home
Oh darling, I wanted to leave but I had to stay

Well, I cannot be your lover and I will not be your friend
Well, I know you say you need me but I have no time to spend
We could talk like this for hours, I'd just end up getting bored
'Cause no one needs a dealer just a day before a score

Let me in, let me in
Let me in, sweet darling, let me in, let me in
Let me in, let me in

N-no, n-no, it can't be true
N-no, n-no, it isn't you
N-no, n-no, it's not the way you are

N-no, n-no, it isn't you
N-no, n-no, it can't be true
N-no, n-no, it's not the way you are

Nico, two headed Cuban giant
He's looking with all of his eyes
At the colours that fall through
The chestnut tree night
Cos tomorrow in London they rise
And don't you know that I'm dusty, too
Don't you know that I'm
Dusty through and through

If you want to ride a rainbow, come with me
And I will take you to the magic purple sea
And maybe we will find a thousand sugar fish
When you eat them they will grant your every wish

And if you want your friends to come
Then bring them all along

Here a fine line, there a fine line
Oh what a time we had
Here a strange place, and there a strange face
Doesn't it make you sad
I will call up my friends and say
Come on over, make my night or my day
And talk about who's the finest folk in town.

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other boys to play
Been tempted for too long
Go on, give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to wanna be your man
Give me a reason to love you

You curl around me
Like a fern in the spring
Lie down here
Let me sing the things you bring

And we can go down easy
Oh, my lover, we can go down easy
Oh, my darling, we can go down easy

There's just no way to say how much I love you
You never make me cry and that's just fine
I've only got my fear to burn above me
You know we all get scared from time to time

Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart

And hello train, it's April fool today
And when you get here
I know you're going to stay
Your letter said you'd travel by
The 14: 30 line
You'll be on the platform running
Oops, don't you look fine

When that hurt in your heart has gone;
When that hurt in your heart has gone.
When that hurt in your heart has gone,
Give me a call.

Darling, that's all that you have to do.
Show me a sign;
A word or a line,

Walking down the road
With no blade in your hand
Johnny you're too bad, that's what they say
Walking down the road
With a blade in your waist
Oh Johnny you're too bad, Johnny you're too bad
With your blade come flicking, You're licking, and sticking
Too bad

The last time I saw you
I saw the writing on the wall
I didn't like it i didn't like it at all
I look at my telephone
I let it ring and ring i do the crying
Let the wire do the singing

I'm not living alone

Lonely Love
You couldn’t change it if you tried
Sometimes it seems, oh darling
It seems that you were born to cry
Trying for so long
But your sweet sweet love keeps going wrong.
Take a chance, take a chance on a
Lonely love, from a lonely loving boy

Just another voice in the wilderness
Just another cry for peace
Just another voice full of loneliness
Just another prayer for release
Look up! Look out! Look in! Look all about
Look everywhere but look at yourself
Hold on! Hold up! Hold out! Hang in
Please everyone, but please yourself

What kind of love is this
Concealed behind your kiss
What kind of love would try
Behind a silent cry
To come stealing in, with an innocent grin
To leave you staring
At the empty ceiling, feeling nothing
Lookin’ on

If I can't be a happy man, I won't be no one at all
If I can't be just who I am, I won't let you come to
call
I was all right before I walked through the door
I was all right outside, but inside I had to cry.

Low today and high tomorrow, I see that it's real
One man's meat's another man's sorrow, do you know how

My baby girl
She's the sweetest in the whole wide world
She wears her hair way up in a curl
Just to show she's my very own baby girl

She says: Daddy will you sing for me
Daddy try to swing for me
Daddy play your strings for me

I believe I heard a voice this morning
I believe I heard a voice
I do believe I heard a voice
Heard a voice this morning
I believe I heard it twice
Always love, always love
We will sleep forever one day
Don't cheat because I'll take all

Shut up! Close your mouth
Shut up! Close your mouth
Shut up! Close your mouth
Shut up! Close your mouth

You must never say, never say never to me
You might break my heart if you
Ever say never to me

If you know, if you know
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Well if you know a lover's will
Tell me if you can
Thought it was a woman and I
Thought it was a man

One for the road one for the river flowing

Oh baby, take a look
Take a look in your heart for me, baby
Baby take a look, take a good look, baby
Baby take a look in your heart

Our love
Once was sweeter than the April rain
But now I have to beg before

I'm going away to leave you, going to leave you in disgrace.
Nothing in my favour, got the wind in my face.
I'm going home, over the hill.

Can't get enough of sweet cocaine, get enough of Mary Jane.
Going back to where I come from, going to roll 'em back home again.
Over the hill.

Ever since we've been together
We tried and tested every step we take
And now we come to stormy weather
We're questioning decisions that we make

Piece by piece, breaking up this love of ours
Piece by piece, tearing it all apart
Piece by piece, breaking up this love we have

A thousand kisses flying home to you
A thousand kisses, two thousand miles from view
My root love

A hotel room don't make it
When I'm thinkin' about your face
Cheap experience don't shake it
Thinkin' about my place

Rope soul'd, and walking away
Tie it tight and bind your feet
Rope soul'd, and walking away
Rope soul'd, and
Tie it tight and bind your feet
Get it right and make it feel

Sand in your shoe

I watch the day go down
Sapphire
I watch my luck turn round
A high flyer
I threw my bones around
Sure fire
I watch the current run
Live wire

I feel that I have known
You for a lifetime now
Though these eyes of mine have
Never touched your face
The distance between us seems
So great sometimes
How I need your love to fill this empty space

It makes no difference if you
Love or hate her
Whatever you do, it's all the same
It makes no difference if you just ignore her
Whatever you do, she runs the game

Serendipity said
Our eyes would meet without us ever knowing

You've been taking your time and you've been living on solid air
You've been walking the line and you've been living on solid air
Don't know what's going 'round inside
And I can tell you that it's hard to hide when you're living on solid air

You've been painting the blues and you've been looking through solid air
You've been seeing it through and you've been looking through solid air
Don't know what's going 'round in your mind

May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold

You're just like a great and strong brother of mine
And you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back
And I know that there's those that do

The second time that I saw you
I knew you had to be the one for me
Now that you have got so deep inside me
That even a fool like me can see

That I'm so much in love with you baby
I just can't sleep without you near
I'm so much in love with you baby

In, in, in, in well it gets so strange when
Standing head to head
It gets so sweet side by side
Feels so strange end to end
So much sweeter side by side

So sweet this painful freedom
So sweet the search for perfect love

You've been taking your time
And you've been living on solid air
You've been walking the line
And You've been living on solid air
Don't know what's going wrong inside
And I can tell you that it's hard to hide when you're living on
Solid air.

Some people are crazy about him
Some people can't stand his face
Some people, they smile when they know he's coming
Some people chase him out of the place

But this loving kind of business
Might make your poor heart glad
Yes, this loving kind of business

These words were composed by Spencer the Rover
Who traveled Great Britain and most parts of Wales
He had been so reduced, which caused great confusion
And that was the reason he went on the roam

In Yorkshire, near Rotherham, he had been on his rambles
Being weary of traveling, he sat down to rest
At the foot of yonder mountain there runs a clear fountain

Get down, mama, to my sugar cube
Get down mama, won't you try to make it move
My sugar cube, my sugar cube
Come on, mama, try to lose your mind
Get down, spent some time on my sugar cube
Gonna sweeten your night
And gonna sweeten your day
So much sweeter, you're just going to be amazed

Saturday night comes creeping
Saturday night comes creeping cold
Saturday night comes laughing and dancing
Sunday leaves you cold

Saturday night comes crying
Saturday night comes weeping and sore
Saturday night finds you looking for friends

If I call you sugar, if you call me honey,
Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate.
If you take my money, if I take your liberty,
Does it mean it's all down to love and hate.
If you open doors for me, I'll have the manners to respond;
I'll treat you like mine.
Ah babe, ah baby.

Just that sweet little mystery that breaks my heart
Just that sweet little mystery makes me cry
O that sweet little mystery that's in your heart
It's just that sweet little mystery that makes me try.

My friends all tell me that I look so sad
They don't need to ask me why
They know the reason that I feel so bad

Mister jelly roll baker
Can I please be your slave
When Gabriel blows his horn
I’m going to rise from my grave
For your sweet jelly roll
You bake the best jelly roll in town
You’re the only man bakes jelly
And you keep your damper down.

You've got to laugh a little, cry a little
Sometimes let your poor heart die a little
That's the story of
And that's the glory of love

You've got to live a little and cry a little
Sometimes let your poor heart die a little
That's the story of

Women know protraction
As they cut it into sections
She's just splitting
All throughout the crazy action
Counting every fraction every bird that flies

Keeps watching her eyes
He's just watching her eyes

One day our laughter comes
Flowing with the rain
And on the very next day
Our sorrow sees us crying again
But darling: you can discover the lover in me
I can discover the lover in thee
Together we can roll and tumble
Until the cow come home

In all this mad excitement
Isn't it fine to know that love is real
And what we feel is all we have to show
In all this gay confusion
It's a comfort just to see that what you say
Is what you mean the words are meant for me
Let people say just what they will
As time goes by, I love you still
