DON'T JUST DISAPPEAR

I've got no hold, no claim
just a dreamlike obsession
You've got a life, love
and plans of your own
Still everbody wants you
but I want you the most

I've got no hold, no claim
but I'll take you away
Give you what you want everyday
Everybody wants you,
but I'll take you away
I'll have you yet

There's just no place
for emotional goodbyes
But my heart screams
my body aches
I want to drag you home
I want to kiss your face
Don't just disappear
I'll take you away
Don't just disappear
I'll take you
Don't just disappear
I'll take you, I'll take you
Don't just disappear
I'll take you,
I'll take you

If I can find a way tonight
Don't think it's that I don't mind
Don't just disappear
I'll take you away
Don't just disappear
I'll have you yet

I keep on running
till I don't know why
And I can't find the time to try
Don't just disappear
I'll take you away
Don't just disappear
I'll have you yet
I'm searching for words tonight
But nothing seems to turn out right
Don't just disappear

YOU CAN CALL IT YOURS

I told you not to come too near,
I didn't tell you to disappear.
Did I?
Make no mistake
I'm so far gone,
I'd break my back to make you happy.
Believe me, please believe me.
It didn't have to come to this....believe me.
I doubt myself in all I say
These feelings,
I can't just live for them.
I raise them up and I mislead you, tthen I tear them all awa
yI go crazy when I'm with you
and you're all I think about
whenever you're gone away
It didn't have to come to this
Pull it all apart
take it anywhere you want it to go
and I'll be there
Take my heart
it was always yours
Take my love
it was always yours
Take my life - you can call it yours
Take my life - you can call it yours
Oooh, you can call it yours
believe it or not
it was always yours
I NEVER KNOW WHERE YOU ARE

It always seems to matter
(I want everything)
It always seems to show
(Everything about you) 
Endless reasons 
Conditions for everything 
Endless problems 
That don't mean a thing, no. 
I never know where you are 
And I never know who you're with

I want everything about you. 
I never know where you are
And I never know who you're with 
Ahh, Say it's a laugh
Say it's a shame
I woke up today and thought about you 
It's just a day like any other. 
There's something
something that you'll never have 
There's something
something that you'll never have

Too close for comfort
And too close for words 
You've suffered every mood
I ever thought I'd ever have 
That's all I ever think about now 
That's all I ever think about now 
It always seems to matter
and It always seems to show

So what's new in this light
Is as good as we'll get 
I'll never know where you are
You'll never know who I'm with
And it always seems to matter 
And it always seems to show.
I wonder what it all could be like
If I was at all what you hoped I could be 
Well that's very good of you
But I want everything right now
(I never know where you are)
I want everything right now.
(I never know who you're with) 
It always seems to matter
(That's all I ever think about now)
It always seems to show
(That's all, all about you.) 
I want everything right now
(I never know where you are)
I want everything right now
(I never know who you're with)
.
ALL THAT MATTERS NOW

Counting on luck for so long now,
It happens to me,
let it happen and happen again.
Oh, you're just in time
Oh, you're just in time
To feel you near.
Just to hold you.
All I desire
is to drown in your arms.
The touch of your hand
and Your breath on my lips
Makes me want you.....more
.
Yes you, you're all that matters now.
Yes you, you're all that matters now.
And this is a song just to tell you.
And this is a song of how much I love you.
You're, you're all that matters now
You're, you're all that matters now
.
Oh, you're just in time
Oh, you're just in time.
Theres nothing to say
Well nothing at all.
Just an handful of cliches
that really mean nothing till you hold me,
Hold me .... hold me.
Oh, you're all that matters now
Oh, you're all that matters now
And this is a song,
just to tell you.
And this is the song
of how much I love you
So hold me ....
hold me Hold me.

.OVER AND OVER

The truth be known,
the magic's back in my heart again.....
it's sad I know.
You leap up before me,
are you back now to haunt me?
On just one night when I pushed you aside,
I knew what was done was done.
Well if I knew then,
just what I know now;
That I'd lose you,
as I couldn't tell you,
how I need you.
I need you
.
Well its a funny old world
when you're so long on your own
And you fall in love,
well, in and out of love again
Well it's wrong, wrong, wrong
I've been on my own for too long
Yes it's wrong, wrong, wrong
To be on your own for so long

I think of you, think of you....everyday
Do you think of me, think of me....ever?
I count every day you're gone away
I count them all, I do.
Over and over and over and over.

AGELESS

Laughing hyena
Oh dancing heart
Playing and playing
For their own good.
Laughing hyena
Oh dancing heart
Ageless you may be
Immortal you’re not.

WAITING ON THE WIRE

Your tireless work counts for little here
it's so unbelievable
all's fair with favour for a favour
and they must surely know
and they should really know
Running on and on
I'm all out of humour
and ready to rest
the new price of freedom
seems more than than I've got
it's strange how the new rule
seems destined for no goal
and what's this sound ringing in our ears?
it's just the sound of the wars
we don't want to fight for
power hungry star eyed prefects
shoot blindly from their desks
pushing the wheel in a backward motion
leading us all somewhere
but it's nowhere
nowhere but over the edge
and they must surely know
they should really know
it's nowhere in particular
nowhere in particular
but swinging on a pocket watch
it's guns that keep us from sleep
Running on on and on
I’m all out of humour
and ready to rest and rest
WAVE AFTER WAVE

About this time of day,
I start to wonder
about this dream we chase.
You and me, now.
Well I can never make you happy
so I shoudn't even try.
I'll only make you suffer
Looks like we should kiss this dream away.
Looks like we should kiss this dream away.
Well, I never make you happy
so I shoudn't even try
I'll only make you suffer
Looks like we should kiss this dream away.
I telling you now,
telling you now,
only a fool would trust me
Only a fool would trust me.
Only a fool would trust me
Only a fool would trust me.
I can see it in your eyes
Proving my worst fears.
I can see I'm hurting you.....
I warn you now,
I'm obsessive and I'm jealous,
I've a need for love
That's all I ever think about.
But day by day
and dream by dream
my taste for belongingness
is being Choked be distrust and fear.
PRIDE

People don't know where to go
or what to say...these days
I can't sleep for thinking about you
it's been building up inside me for years
Survival is our code
Success is our religion
With our heads hung in shame
and our hearts glowing with pride
we've found a means to an end
and oh my God it thrills us to death
We'd like to know how you live your life
we'd like to know you're still safe and sound
after the sancuaries of empty words
have fallen to cemeteries
we'd llke to know
And time has taught us more than one lesson
so we'll never make the same mistakes again
If saying so little had ever meant so much
may I go crazy may I go crazy

Another part of me every time
shakes my soul
and burns to the bottom of every glass
parched dry by too many years
brittle cracked age falls like dust
If you think you've found your chance
wishing on a coin good luck to you
good luck to all those like you
wonder why wonder why

It hasn’t taqken me too long
And I’ll follow you anywhere
Serenade your life
 
ALL MY EYE AND BETTY MARTIN

Push a little don't force
it when the time's right
we'll climb up
we know we're winning
I can feel we're winning
we can prove what we're worth
Wait a minute what do I do now?
you say you don't know
and I know you do too
It's all my eye
to outwit the suspect
trumped up and sold out
concocted to counterfiet
i know half as much to
what's coming round the corner
tell me if it's true
You say you don't know
I know you do too
Oh this never knowing
half suspecting
baited rat trap
to decoy the ambush
this luring trap door
to trip wire the deadfall
it's all my eye
to outwit the suspect
trumped up and sold out
concocted and counterfeit
TOUCHSTONE

Overhead the sky seems almost clear
the fire has seen the water dry
and age falls back on itself again
save yourself
and stay warm by the hope
you hold like I do I do
What kind of home is this?
What kind of home is this?
I don't know, I don't care
what time of day it is
"Send me more water, and now" she cried
and the clock rolls it's tired eyes
wait until morning
hold out until it comes
Heaven knows where all this goes
wasted thoughts that find no words
are you listening? are you listening?
What kind of home lets the cold winds blow
in from the badlands around where we are?
and how can a moment
burn down the bridges
we've worked hard so long to secure?
it's a fine time for kind hearts
to hang up their fine thoughts
and throw all regret to the fire
and burn with their memory
the wounds and the reveries
that all of their efforts have bought
gainsay resigning and callenge maintained
we borrow the skills for the course
and hand in the outcome forgetting to count up
that seconds in time are our loss
So christen these kind hearts
with names they don't deserve
and measure out the sanity
that falls into lunacy
hung bitter sweet faded and lost
Please don't turn away
from the innocence we hear
perfection is always ruined
when it's near enough to hear
those here would die for me I fear
and no one trys by their own admission
so pass the time and the ammunition
there is more for those still searching
oh come on and look again
it's not a question of superstition
there is no need to be afraid
ALWAYS

I'm going to miss you
But it's better now
I'm going to miss you
Now you're never coming back
Why should I defend
What's always been so good here?
You've made your point so very well
Simply by not being here
Always.
I've told myself you're never coming back.
Now you're gone
What'll I do?
Right now I'm thinking how much I want it all back
Right now I don't want anyone else
How can I help myself?
How can I?
Now you're gone
What'll I do?
Right now and always?
Right now I don't want anyone else
But it's better now It's better no by far.
