| Fine Line There is a fine line, between recklessness and courage, it's about time you understood which road to take. It's a fine line, your decision makes a difference, get it wrong, you'll be making a big mistake. Come on brother, all is forgiven, we all cried when you were driven away. Come on brother, everything is better, everything is better when you come home and stay. Whatever's more important to you, you've got to change what you wanna do. Whatever's more important to be, that's the view that you've gotta see. There is a long way, between chaos and creation, if you don't say which one of these you're gonna choose. It's a long way, and in every contradiction seems to say it's a game that your bound to lose. Come on brother, all is forgiven, we all cried when you were driven away. Come on brother, everything is better, everything is better when you come home and stay. Come on back, come on back, come on back to me. It's a fine line, it's a fine line... Whatever's more important to you, you've got to change what you wanna do. Whatever's more important to be, that's the view that you've gotta see. It's a fine line, it's a fine line... Whatever's more important to you (It's a fine line), you got to choose what you want to do. Whatever's more important to be (It's a fine line), that's the thing that you gotta see. How Kind Of You How kind of you to think of me when I was out of sorts. It really meant a lot to be in someone else's thoughts, someone else's mind, someone else as kind, as you. The thoughtfulness you showed has made a difference in my life, I won't forget how unafraid you were that long dark night. I thought that all was lost, I thought I'd never find a someone quite as kind, as you. I thought my faith had gone, I thought there couldn't be a someone who was there, for me. How kind of you to stick by me during the final bout and listened to the referee as I was counted out. I thought my time was up, I thought I'd never find a someone quite as kind, as you. I thought my faith had gone, I thought there couldn't be a someone who was there for me. How kind of you to think of me, how kind of you... Jenny Wren Like so many girls, Jenny Wren could sing but a broken heart, took her soul away. Like the other girls, Jenny Wren took wing, she could see the world, and it's foolish ways How we spend our days casting love aside, losing sight of life, day by day. She saw poverty, breaking all the home, wounded warriors, took her song away. But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing, when this broken world mends its foolish ways. Now we spend our days catching up on life, all because of you, Jenny Wren. At The Mercy At the mercy, at the mercy, at the mercy of a busy road, who can handle such a heavy load? At the mercy, at the mercy, at the mercy of a busy day, we can think of nothing more to say. If you show me love, I won't refuse, I know you'd never make me choose between the love I've got and the love I'd lose. Sometimes I'd rather run and hide than stay and face the fear inside at the mercy, at the mercy at the mercy of a busy day, who can bear to turn their head away? At the mercy, at the mercy, at the mercy of a busy road, we can watch the universe explode. If you take me up, I won't say no, I guess you'd rather see me grow into a better man than the one you know. Sometimes my head is hanging low, it's time to get on with the show. At the mercy, at the mercy, at the mercy of a busy day, I can think of nothing more to say. Friends To Go I've been waiting on the other side, for your friends to leave so I don't have to hide, I prefer they didn't know so I've been waiting on the other side for your friends to go. I've been sliding down a slippery slope, I've been climbing up a slowly burning rope, but the flame is getting low. I've been waiting on the other side for your friends to go. You never need to worry about me, I'll be fine on my own. Someone else can worry about me, I've spent a lot of time on my own, I've spent a lot of time on my own. I've been waiting till the danger past, I don't know how long the storm is gonna to last, if we're gonna carry on. I'll been waiting on the other side till your friends are gone. So tell me what I wanna know, I'll be waiting on the other side for your friends to go. Someone else can worry about me, I've spent a lot of time on my own, I've spent a lot of time on my own. I've been waiting on the other side, for your friends to leave so I don't have to hide, I prefer they didn't know so I've been waiting on the other side for your friends to go. I've been waiting on the other side... English Tea Would you care to sit with me for a cup of English tea? Very twee, very me, any sunny morning. What a pleasure it would be chatting so delightfully. Nanny bakes fairy cakes every Sunday morning. Miles of miles of English garden, stretching past the willow tree, lines of holly, hocks and roses, listen most attentively. Do you know the game crochet peradventure we might play? Very gay, hip hooray, any sunny morning. Miles of miles of English garden, stretching past the willow tree, Lines of holly, hocks and roses, listen most attentively. As a rule the church bells chime when it's almost supper time Nanny bakes, fairy cakes on a Sunday morning. Too Much Rain Laugh when your eyes are burning, smile when your heart is filled with pain. Sigh as you brush away your sorrow, make a vow that's it's not going to happen again. It's not right, in one life, too much rain. You know the wheels keep turning, why do the tears run down your face? We use to hide away our feelings, but for now, tell yourself it won't happen again. It's not right, in one life, too much rain. It's too much for anyone, too hard for anyone. Who wants a happy and peaceful life, you've gotta learn to laugh. Smile when you're spinning round and round, sigh as you think about tomorrow. Make a vow that you're gonna be happy again. It's all right, in your life, no more rain. It's too much for anyone, too hard for anyone. Who wants a happy and peaceful life, you've gotta learn to laugh. Certain Softness A certain softness in her eyes fascinates me more than I ever thought it would, (a certain softness) more than I ever thought it could. A certain softness in her eyes got me hooked, got me hooked. A kind of sadness in her smile captivates me surer than anything that's sure, (a kind of sadness) surer than anything before. A kind of sadness in her smile got me hooked. A kind of sadness in her smile got me hooked. A kind of sadness in her smile got me hooked. If I could even find the words to tell her, I wouldn't want to anyway cause that could only break the spell and you know very well I couldn't betray her A touch of wildness in her style haunts my memory more than I ever thought it would, (a touch of wildness) more than I ever thought it could. A touch of wildness in her style got me hooked. A touch of wildness in her style got me hooked. A touch of wildness in her style got me hooked. A certain softness in her eyes fascinates me more than I ever thought it would, (a certain softness) more than I ever thought it could. A certain softness in her eyes got me hooked, got me hooked... Riding To Vanity Fair I bit my tongue, I never talked too much. I tried to be so strong, I did my best. I used the gentle touch, I've done it for so long. You put me down but I can laugh it off and act like nothing's wrong. But why pretend, I think I've heard enough of your familiar song. I tell you what I'm going to do, I'll try to take my mind off you. And now that you don't need my help I'll use the time to think about myself. You're not aware of what you put me through but now the feeling's gone but I don't mind. Do what you have to do, you don't fool anyone. I'll tell you what I'm going to do, I'll take a different point of view. And now that you don't need my help I'll use the time to think about myself. The definition of friendship apparently ought to be showing support for the one that you love. And I was open to friendship but you didn't seem to have any to spare while you were riding to Vanity Fair. There was a time when every day was young, the sun would always shine, we sang along when all the songs were sung, believing every line. That's the trouble with friendship- for someone to feel it it has to be real or it wouldn't be right and I keep hoping for friendship but I wouldn't dare to presume it was there while you were riding to Vanity Fair. Follow Me You lift up my spirits, you shine on my soul whenever I'm empty, you make me feel whole. I can rely on you to guide me through any situation, You hold up a sign that reads, follow me. You give me direction, you show me the way, you give me a reason to face every day. I can depend on you to send me to any destination, you hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me. Down the track of loneliness, down the path of love, through the words of heartache, to the end. On the shores of sorrow, where the waves of hope crash in, the perfect place for me to find a friend. You lead to places that I've never been, uncovering secrets that I've never seen. I can rely on you, to guide me through any situation, you hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me. Promise To You Girl Looking through the backyard of my life, time to sweep the fallen leaves away. Like the sun that rises every day, we can chase the dark clouds from the sky. I gave my promise to you, girl, I don't wanna take it back. You and me, side by side, we know how to change the world. that is why I gave my promise to you, girl. Hey, why wait another day, that won't get us anywhere. All the time, that ain't changed to repair this brave old world. We'll be up, I gave my promise to you, girl. Everything single second of our life we can use to chase the clouds away. Well, there's no more barking up the tree, no more howling at the moon, same old scene, you and I, diving for the deepest trust. That is why I gave my promise to you, girl. Looking Through The Backyard Of My Life This never happened before, I'm very sure this never happened to me before. I met you and now I'm sure this never happened before, Now I see this is the way it's supposed to be, I met you and now I see this is the way it should be. This is the way it should be for lovers, they shouldn't go it alone. It's not so good when you're on your own. So come to me now we can be what we wanna be. I love you and now I see this is the way it should be. This is the way it should be, this is the way it should be for lovers they shouldn't go it alone it's not so good when you're on your own. I'm very sure this never happened to me before, I met you and now I'm sure this never happened before (this never happened before), this never happened before (this never happened), this never happened before (this never happened before)... Anyway If you love me, won't you call me? I've been waiting, waiting to long. In my soul is constant yearning, always singing, singing this song. Only love is strong enough to take it on the chin, when did I begin to fall? Anyway, anyway, you can make, that call. You feel free to make yourself at home. If we could be closer longer, that would help me, help me so much. We can cure each other's sorrow, won't you please, please, please get in touch? If our love is strong enough, it may never end, why would I pretend to fall? Anyway, anyway, you can make, that call. You feel free to make yourself at home. Anyway, anyway, anyway, at all, anyway, you can make that call. |
