Call Me 03:42
CALL ME You didn’t want to go. You told me. Looking at yourself a bit too close But I think I know why you did You need love Put the darkness all behind you. Try to forge a path ahead And I think I know what you want You want love Call me anytime you want to. Let me know you really care When you reach your destination I’ll be there, I’ll be there Coming home you sounded different. Hard to tell if that’s good or bad Is it my reward or consolation? I don’t know Call me anytime you want to. Let me know you really care When you reach your destination I’ll be there, I’ll be there

Little Piece 04:06
LITTLE PIECE Waiting for the spring tide to cover up the rain that’s fallen A little piece human. So fragile and strong Never gonna play again Never gonna run across the sand The child inside has gone Since I saw that tiny hand Feeling disconnected from the fruit inside Just give me water. My lips are so dry Never gonna play again Never gonna run across the sand The child inside has gone Since I saw that tiny hand A little piece human. So fragile and strong

Til I Do 04:48
TIL I DO Here I sit in the clouds, looking down, pouring scorn But that’s the way it is And I won’t say “ I love you” ‘til I do Feel my fury. Does it hurt? Does it mean anything? You’re the grit for my pearl And I won’t say “ I love you” ‘til I do If you pay someone to listen long enough Take the pills and not the other stuff Then you’ll understand why it’s hard to hold your hand If you lie in the gutter then there’s nowhere to fall I said I’d go the distance But I won’t say “ I love you” ‘til I do

TWISTED SPINE You ask me, “what’s the matter?” How long have you got? I don’t know where to start A twisted spine, a lazy eye, a murmur in my heart Ooh, when you see me again with another man on my arm Ooh, time won’t end ‘cos I found a friend of my own Although you won’t remember, it wasn’t that bad The best we’ve had so far I won’t be there for your sad affair I won’t care where you are Ooh, when you see me again with another man on my arm Ooh, time won’t end ‘cos I found a friend of my own

STONE COLD BABY Is there any middle ground? Something we could share? ‘Cos I don’t believe that anyone should do the things you do You’re a stone cold baby Always all for one. Never one for all. Even if you’re small it’s true Foxfire in the bushes. Whispers in the dark And I can’t conceive that anyone would say the things you do Such a stone cold baby I don’t want to play your silly games Soon you’ll only shoot me down in flames And I don’t believe that anyone should do the things you do You’re a stone cold baby
7.
DON”T PRAY FOR ME When I was in uniform wasn’t I pretty? When I was in uniform wasn’t I brave? Didn’t I look grand with a gun in my hand As I met with my downfall? Beat the drum slowly and play the pipe only Play up the dead march as we go along Then take me home, I’m just a young soldier And I’ve never done wrong Don’t pray for me, makes no difference now Don’t pray for me anymore Six of your soldiers to carry my coffin Lower me down in my own special hole Throw bunches of roses to deaden the sound Of the earth as it falls Don’t pray for me, makes no difference now Don’t pray for me anymore
8.
SOMETHING NEW It’s eerily still in the flowery room and the dusty spiral turns Be sure, let me know if you’re surfacing soon Three black tears are all I have Tell me something good Tell me something new They say the snow’s just waiting to fall, but it’s such a lovely day If I look at the sun with a watery eye I can see your garden grow Tell me something good Tell me something new Different opinions Crossing over soon

Time For Us 04:43
TIME FOR US What’s the use in talking? It doesn’t mean a thing You didn’t buy my heart, just my diamond ring Face it head on. The eye of the storm is passing over you Do what you have to do How can I be sure? We’ve been this way before Will we ever know when it’s time for us to go? What’s the use in fighting? It doesn’t fix a thing Don’t want to keep your heart, just my diamond ring How can I be sure? We’ve been this way before Will we ever know when it’s time for us to go?

SPECIAL SOUND Always keeping calm among the chaos. Mustn’t show anyone the mess I’m in Broken crystals in pools of blood Powerless but still beautiful Must you speak in tongues? What you saying? Say what’s on your mind for goodness sake I rack my brains to try and understand you Powerless but still beautiful Clouds of disappointment gather round Every time I hear your special sound

Didn't I 05:51
DIDN’T I? Cuts both ways and either way it hurts There’s nothing left that words can say Compromise. A welcome overstayed A part that’s overplayed too long Didn’t I make it better? Didn’t you feel the same? Shouldn’t we be together? There you go in the dirty rain To cover up the pain you feel Clever me. Survived another fall The writing’s on the wall for you Didn’t I make it better? Didn’t you feel the same? Shouldn’t we be together?

Fallen Angel 04:07
FALLEN ANGEL There’s a baby in the bathroom, a lady on the shelf It doesn’t seem unusual at all A meaningless replay of other things somewhere between the lines There’s no dignity in dying, only dignity in living And the lying and forgiving comes for free Is this a picnic or funeral? Somebody let me know Say your prayers to Elvis Jesus loves you anyway Another fallen angel won’t be missed See you on the other side With nothing left to say Always taste the whisky in the kiss I wanna be there Look at all the pilgrims who don’t know how to love Worshipping a light that isn’t there Here comes a shadow that brings the rain ,rising where they stand Say your prayers to Elvis Jesus loves you anyway Another fallen angel won’t be missed See you on the other side with nothing left to say Always taste the whisky in the kiss I wanna be there
