Weekend Hearts

seen
the sparks blow out
my weekend heart
deletes
these are the reasons
to leave us here
the landscape has changed
stay or would you like to come and get away?
once you were my lover for a single day
now you’re loved by another
sisters…
saw us there all splashed upon the brightest sky
looks like this might take us all a little while
it’s not what you’re thinking
no, no
i’ve heard you’re on and off and off and on again
i guess I always knew who you were in the end
the two of us still walking in the rain
oh, no…

sting, sting, stings
what will tomorrow bring?
sting, sting, stings
what will tomorrow bring?
she sings the blues so quietly
and licks the wounds that only I can feel
she knows too much but still believes
her eyes are phasing right in front of me
days lift off in daytime
let’s just stick on some tunes...
baby

Elvis And Me

once I caught glimpses when I sleepwalked through the park
ended up somewhere I’ve never been since
everythings backwards and forwards in time
confusing I know but life is
i’d like to go back
sometimes…
palm trees and big ships sail over our shoulders
i’d give you a kiss but we’re almost here
please come back to bed now, I feared that I’d lost you
that’s too close for comfort this time of year
i’d like to go back
sometimes...
you blink
it’s gone
there’s only love
slept thru the night but these dreams that I’m having can only be described as out of place
my life's ever changing, the ghosts never stop
my mornings are getting much stranger now
i’d like to get back
sometime
and you were the one that I always looked up to
but sometimes in life things self implode
you took a plane, ended up in las vegas
i hope that you won the biggest hand
i’d like to go back
sometime
you blink
it’s gone
there’s only love

above the moon
behind the sea
here come the waves
all over me
inside the clouds
the sun kissed trees
just wash away
all of me

Tomorrow Will Be Ours

every morn
we all give in to everything we’ve ever known
the aches i have for you will grow all over again
i love you
there’s only so much more that i can break in two
you feel so far away yet i am right next to you
is it over?
let’s multiply me by you
we’ve come a long way in this world
though this town can drag us down
you’re still my best friend
and yes
the words cannot express this love that never dies
it soars between the cracks of light between our eyes
cos i love you
hazel into green and back to timbuktu
i’ll love you all the ways until our brightest of ends
yeah i love you
let’s multiply me by you
we’ve come a long way in this world
though this town will drag you down
you’re still my best friend
let’s multiply me by you
we’ve come a long way in this world
though this town can drag us down
you’re still my best friend
yeah you’re my best friend

She Was Never There
04:14

the sun wakes up
another life
her distant lips
the ones I’ve always missed
i’ll put the world back down
between her breasts
and then I’ll lift her up
so she’ll see all of this
through lorna's eyes
that bend in time
i hear those singing bombs
botanic nursery rhymes
we had the whole damn place
and half the streets
a little universe
just sitting at our feet
you know that I could love you
you know that I could love you
you know that I could love you
but she was never there
yeah this ship has sailed
from the holy lands
to the antrim road
and up cavehill
i’m getting all choked up
guess I always will
to arthur’s seat
where we are still
you know that I could love you
you know that I could love you
you know that I could love you
but she was never there

it’s strange
stranger still
until expecting next the many and more
it’s still as if it was before
remember me to my mind with this is probable, possible, probable
mumbled some such thing about trouble with loving
and if I likely seem so am a lost soul in the afar from concealed tongue
and if I seem so unlike a less, least, loose, lick, flick
if love is an answer, a reason or even if love is love is love is loss
a strange angel
motion
i turned into becoming other than myself, then tried to change back again
to return
but it never was and it was too late already
i am only me as a mirror about now
and what of it?
what use words when the speaker changes forever and always?
and who thinks words also change by themselves?
beyond our minds contemplating the paltry limits of the conditional
to my mind thoughts are only for preparing an entrance and an exit

Breakfast In Bed
04:07
|

yeah we know we can't grow wings
don't be silly behind it all
we're a bit too old apparently
that's all they say that's all
slowing down, drawing frowns
wrinkles will not touch the ground
unless my heart is crushed well
remember what they said that makes the heart grow fonder
it only makes sense when you look upwards
too many fists will go through walls, so many walls that keep us in
i take no notice of that
thankfully
without the birds, without the bees, without the flowers, without the trees
we won't have much more to live for i believe
soft caresses in the rain
i guess i've smudged your lipstick again
especially when it's red and romantically said
holds her heart and thinks of she
could this be? could this be?
the only thing that matters to me, just me, just me...
have you ever thought “god…theres so many people in the world"

The Sun Will Come
04:24
|

we believe the sun will come
and kiss our loved ones gone
they’ve left us all too soon
so now they dance at noon
and in the twilight night
so we remember why
the love will get us through
i’ll find a way to you
we believe the sun will come
we believe the sun will come
yes, the sun will come

(gary)
on our way to heaven
lights are flashing
i regret and take back everything I’ve said until this evening
it’s not quite feeling homeless or distressed, the best is yet to come
how did you guess, I was a total mess, yes, a total mess
and so you see people always get the wrong ideas
inconclusive
and theres no such thing as beauty, only things that look like beautiful
and if you transpose this life onto that life
i suppose every life has good and bad parts
anyway...
marble columns pierce the clouds
round the entrance
gates I can relate to them
and in the future, we can wait here for friends if they feel alone or perhaps unsure
we can wait and greet them pearly smiles and glassy eyed
shimmering
i know it’s going to be real fun
oh even the trees breathe
you sigh serene, I sigh peacefully
i believe, don’t you believe?
in fact it’s close to blackmail
embarrassed I’ve forgotten whether I’m male or female
asexual
and you’re teeth look so white
my clothes become invisible
naked as the day I was born
(joe)
steal my heart, you’re safer with me
just you and the pillows and me makes three
and I’ll be there with bells on
can’t you see that nothing else matters if the words don’t change
we’ll put them in the water and they’ll think we’re strange
but I love you, completely
written on the blue sky you sent to me
were words that even god would find hard to feel
and I’m the one thats baptized, naturally
your little box full of everything
those words are like when bing sings
oh I could sing about you eternally
heavens not a worthy place for me to have to wash my face
cos I’ll be using your sink, if you let me, if you let me, if you let me, if you let me…
confessions won’t need to be my scene cos I won’t need no in between
i can’t sin if you’re with me
and who said love is all you need
i think it should be decreed
where do we sleep? So peacefully?
so steal my heart, you’re safer with me
just you and the pillows and me makes three
and I’ll be there with bells on
can’t you see that nothing else matters if the words don’t change
we’ll put them in the water and they’ll think we’re strange
but I love you, completely,
but I love you, completely, completely, completely, completely…
alice in wonderful sent to me
alice in wonderful sent to me
alice in wonderful sent to me
alice in wonderful sent to me….
sent to me

our loved ones and our dreams have gone to bed
the clubs they fell asleep these past decades
my esperanto slipped between the sheets
now all we’ve got is john peel in our heads
the mornings will break you
a little piece at a time
these rainbows yeah they are fleeting
but i hope they'll find you in the end
lavery’s and the plaza just echoes
the people gone too soon all cared the most
our bus late as always on the way home
these ghosts won’t live forever on their own
the mornings will break you
a little piece at a time
these rainbows yeah they are fleeting
but i hope they'll find you in the end
