It's time I took my suitcase out this town
I tried, I failed to settle down
Ah well, I gotta try harder
Next time around
I forget 'bout the tears
I wanted to cry out
Once I hit the open road
I found myself
Singing out loud
Cause I'm a traveller
I travel with time
I'm a traveller
I'm never and always on time
Traveller, so I'm leaving this station
My final destination
Seems to be the
Open road
From inside this car
You feel like the drug
I've travelled to find
You give more and more
Open road
You can take me far
I understand now
You could be the home
I've been looking for
I've been longing for
I forget 'bout the tears
I wanted to cry out
Once I hit the open road
I found myself
Singing out loud
(Travel so far away from my sorrow, road take me far)
Open road
From inside this car
You feel like the drug
I've travelled to find
You give more and more
Open road
You can take me far
I understand now
You could be the home
I've been looking for
I've been longing for

Northern Star
04:28
|
|||
No matter how unpredictable
Is this sea I'm sailing on
I never fear
It's the thought of you being there
That comforts me
The places I find myself at
Are many
So I get lost frequently
But I shed no tears
Cause I know you're there for me
Northern star
What would I do without you
Northern star where would I go without you
Even when the clouds
Have you for the night
and I can't see you so well
I take a break
Cause I know the clouds aren't here to stay
So I wait cause I know
that when the sky clears again
you'll appear
and then I'll know my way
Northern star
Where would I go without you
Northern star

Down
05:33
|
|||
I mistook the sound of rain
For a sound of fire
I never realized before
That they sound so alike
You left your funny hat behind
But I didn’t laugh no more
But neither did I cry at your old
“I love you” note on the door
‘Cause I guess I’m down with love
I’m down with love
“For love is patient love is kind
Doesn’t envy, has no pride
It keeps no record of wrong”
‘Cause love is strong
I lost my patience before my pride
I seem to ‘ve done more wrong than right
I lost my faith in being kind
When I lost my mind
So that’s why I’m down
With love
I’m down
With love
For love is dated, love is dull
‘Cause love times love equals null
It’s far too frightening, far too powerful
Hey love could be the devil himself
It traps you in, then gives no help
It fails to deliver, all you get
Is a fever, and you burn down
With love
I’m down with love
I’m down with love
I’m down with love
I mistook the sound of rain for a sound of fire
I never realized before that they sound so alike

Fixed
02:48
|
|||
My ship was sinking I was going down
Could someone fix it before I drowned
Every time it seemed like I found the one
I found my self just hitting the ground
Did I feel like crying then, like crying
but I feel like flying now, like flying
And so I thought I have to hit back
I caught the bottle and strangled its neck
A pain free way to spend a day
Somebody save me I'm wasting away
And did I feel like crying then, like crying
but I feel like flying now, like flying
Now take these pills my doctor said
They'll help you get detached from your bed
but all they did is send me to sleep
Still when awake all I could do was weep
Oh yeah
(Did I feel like crying then, like crying
but I feel like flying now, like flying)
He fell on me like a desert rain
I told the doc I'm no longer in pain
and to my pills I said goodbye
My baby's all I need to get high
Did I feel like crying then, like crying
but I feel like flying now, like flying
And did I feel like dying then, like dying
but I feel like flying now, like flying

Juliet 08
05:25
|
|||
I don't know what to do
So I light up a cigarette
As dated as I get
In 2008
Ooh, someone's mistaken me for Juliet
Ooh, somebody pass another cigarette
I don't know what to say
So I drink the last sip of my wine
Can we carry on this talk
In 2009
Ooh, where is the door I need some air
Ooh, where is the door to nowhere
Miss fortune-teller
Said our stellar ways are switching fates
In 2028
About two decades too late
So let us save our
Precious time that's costing us a fortune
Got to go
Go out through that door
A shadow of myself
instructed me to use my head
And leave my heart
It seems unfortunate
The two will never part
Ooh, where is the door I need some air
Ooh, where is the door to nowhere
Ooh, someone's mistaken me for Juliet
Ooh, I said she isn't real but still so sad
Too bad
Too bad
Too bad...

Heart Pendant
04:33
|
|||
Hello, how are you I
'm sorry to bother you
But I was wondering
If maybe you found
The other half
Of my heart shaped pendant
It's been missing since I last saw you
Just before I left to start anew
Been looking everywhere
Couldn't find it nowhere
So I thought
I may have dropped it at your place
I know it's been a while
But I'm checking just in case
I found similar ones
But they weren't the real thing
So I thought that if you've found it
I can just stop searching
And if you haven't seen it so far
It might still turn up
So if it does just let me know
And I'll come and get it
But don't send it in the post
Cause it may get lost
You know...it was a special one
The other half
The other half
Have you found the other half
Of my heart shaped pendant

Way To Blue
03:34
|
|
||
Don't you have a word to show what may be done
Have you never heard a way to find the sun
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Won't you come and say
If you know the way to blue?
Have you seen the land living by the breeze
Can you understand a light among the trees
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Tell us all today
If you know the way to blue?
Look through time and find your rhyme
Tell us what you find
We will wait at your gate
Hoping like the blind
Can you now recall all that you have known?
Will you never fall
When the light has flown?
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Won't you come and say
If you know the way to blue?

Queen Of Clean
04:51
|
|||
Look into my eyes once more
Something that you've missed to see
Through my fence of innocence
I am the queen
Of all things clean
Still have plenty of supplies
Of confidence
Surely you should go
You've got the place wrong
All my smiles are real
So don't you ask why I've got
So few
If you're after someone
Who can complete the missing piece
Of your puzzle of deceipt
Turn away
I've already been there
I've none of my newfound sense to spare
La la la la...
I tried to change my past in the past
But my time machine just failed to start
So I am sticking with my revolution
For a good day
And all my guns now live
At the bottom of the river
And my scars are here
To keep at bay another judgement day
So turn away
I've already been there
I've none of my newfound sense to spare
La la la la...

In The First Row
03:12
|
|||
I got stuck in the underground
At ten this morning
No one was happy but what can be done
Still the guy next to me
Didn't stop moaning, he could no longer wait
The train was making him late
He said he's got to be in Leicester Square
Latest by eleven
Because tonight there's a movie premiere
It's starting at seven
So he said
I'm gonna be in the first row
I'm gonna be in the first row
I'm gonna stand in the first row
He said he knows all celebrities
He'd even met some
And once he even had a chance to touch
A Cheeky Girl's bum
He was proud to once have spent his last twenty pounds
On a cab to the Ivy
So he could get there on time to see
Victoria Beckam arriving
Then he went quiet for a moment
And I almost said something, I almost did
But just right then the train made a move again
And a minute later we were outside the station and it started to rain
And he didn't complain about the cold, no
Only relief and elation, he was finally there
He even brought a little chair
In the first row
I'm gonna be in the first row
I'm gonna be in the first row
I'm always there in the first row
I'm gonna be in the first row
I'm always there in the first row
I always stand in the first row
Well, what I wanted to say to him is "Hey, you need to get real"
But I know that anyway he will
Sooner or later he will

Lover Come Back To Me
03:18
|
|
||
The sky was blue
And high above
The moon was new
And so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover where can you be
You came at last
Love had its day
That day is past
Youve gone away
This aching heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When I remember every little thing
You used to do
Im so lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When I remember every little thing
You used to do
I'm so lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while Im waiting here
This lonely heart is singing
Lover come back to me

Suzanne
03:56
|
|
||
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.

Smile
04:27
|
|||
Stand by me for always
Stand by me for sometimes
Seal your letter with a kiss
and send it with the sunrise
Think of me when you have some time
Think of me when you cry
By the way remember my name
Maybe you can just try
Look away my ex-love
Forgotten all now
Promised I will never show you
where my heavy heart drowned
Think of you when I have no time
Think of you when I cry
Still I can remember your name
even though I don't try
(Oh, do you believe in love, does love believe in you)
Oh, isn't it a pity
That love has ceased to believe in you and me
Still strangers I meet make me wonder
How far these feet have to run
until I get to the place
where my heart feels a trace
of that smile that came
exclusively with seeing your face
