An Angel With No Halo









The dark like cross the room from left to right
Pass the near at yout knees empty ..
And specific when it’s blowing your ship






Do you wanna know that everybody goes
The lies empty like …bluring with the pain long
An angel with no halo







The dark like cross the room from left to right
Pass the near at yout knees empty ..
And specific when it’s blowing your ship
Do you wanna know that everybody goes






An angel with no halo

The Building








I made you a building so grand
The stars and the sun just couldn't stand
It towering there, blocking their rays
From everyone walking the streets underneath like a maze







With the heat of your heavy angel-bones
You're holding me still
And now my thoughts have flown







I made you a building so high
I knew you were wrong
But I didn't know why, why
Not out of wires, not with a spoon
I know you don't care but it angers the big giant moon






With the heat of your heavy angel-bones
You're holding me still
And now my thoughts have flown







With the heat of your heavy angel-bones
You're holding me still
And now my thoughts have flown








Now my thought have flown
Now my thought have flown
Flown, flown, flown...

Rain








This dress that I made
Out of the curtains
Was on the line
Dancing around
Better than I can







Now we walk up
To the top of the street
Once letting go
Rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street
And well be there before we know
There go the lawn chairs








Some frogs are racing them
To catch up with me
Gray buildings go by
Violety sky lit up with trees in yellow
Once letting go
Rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street







And well be there before we know
Hey, is that you
Going by, swimming by
Hey, is that you
Zig-zagging, whizzing by
Sailing up, sailing by
Once letting go









Rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street
And well be there before we know

Bright As Yellow








And you live your life with your arms stretched out.
Eye to eye when speaking.
Enter rooms with great joy shouts,
happy to be meeting.
And bright,
bright,
bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.








And I do not want to be a rose.
I do not wish to be pale pink,
but flower scarlet, flower gold.
And have no thorns to distance me,






but be bright,
bright,
bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.









Even if I'm shouting, even if I'm shouting here inside.
Even if I'm shouting, do you see that I'm wanting,
that I want to be so
bright,
bright,






bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.

Last Night








And even in your darkest hour 
The recipe I cook for you 
Can release its latent power 
And make your body feel brand new








Can't you hear the music play? 
Being centre of what you want 
Try to leave the past behind 
Memories don't appeal








Ah-oh, all the things we said 
Ah-oh, all the things we did 
Ah-oh, all the things that passed 
Ah-oh, were satisfied








They always say that.
It's very moving. 
You're not going to get away with it this time, that's for sure.

The Pain That's Yet To Come









You do a great job as a muse
I'm all lost and confused
unsure of what to do
clawing for clues






And I will send my soul out to you
over mountains and through woods
I'd crawl to you
just to catch a glimpse of you







And should you hear a creaking from the floor
see a movement of the door
you know the score
I'm closer than you thought






And if you think I'm howling at the moon
know I'm howling for you
It's all that I can do
just to spit and scream for you

The Failing Song








As youths we used to talk at night
Of joys that life was going to bring our way
& The failures of our forebears









Were as clear to us as the cold light of day
But now these days are dead & gone
& The future that we had is now the past






& It's cobwebs that we cling to
Our aspirations turned to ashes in our hands

On Days Like These







On days like these when skies are blue and fields are green

I look around and think about what might have been
and then I hear sweet music float around my head








as I recall the many things we left unsaid
its on days like these that I remember
singing songs and drinking wine
while your eyes played games with mine







on days like these I wonder what became of you
maybe today you are singing songs with someone new

I’d like to think you're walking by those willow trees
remembering the love we knew on days like these
its on days like these that I remember
singing songs and drinking wine
while your eyes played games with mine







on days like these I wonder what became of you
maybe today you are singing songs with someone new







Questi giorni quando vieni il belle sole

Go







o lovely, go far away, I've set you free
Cause I know that we belong
Held in arms of the sea
And there's other things a-roll
On your mind through the day
And it's understood to me
We belong in freedom's way







Well I heard the daylight's long
And the seas are slight but the breeze is strong
Hope fills my sails and I'm gone
But man it feels like home






And I know this is all that I've dreamed of
Cause I feel like living when the life comes back to me
The sun shines on my face and I feel hope







So go lovely, go far away, I've set you free
Cause I know that we belong
Held in arms of the sea
And there's other things a-roll
On your mind through the day
And it's understood to me
We belong in freedom's way






Well I know the blood runs strong in your heart
But it beats harder for the life in you to grow
And you smile cause you know this is where we belong







So go lovely, go far away, I've set you free
Cause I know that we belong
Held in arms of the sea
And there's other things a-roll
On your mind through the day
And it's understood to me
We belong in freedom's way

Thick As Thieves








Once we've been as thick as thieves
Once we kept good company
Carpet bags and paper view






By the time for the afternoon
You too will forget what it meant to












Shine the forest for the trees
Pines aren't .... that gave our...
Make the bed and build our nest
Now we lay above to rest







You too will forget what it meant to
Once we've been as thick as thieves
