I slip softly through
All I've waited for, my dear, is you
I slip softly through
Settling, my dear, till I found you

Even if your heart stops
I'll be there to hold you up
Even as the world turns
I'll be there to watch the fire burn
Burn us both alive

Time can over-complicate
But, darling, I refuse to wait
There's no way of planning
For the fall

[doublenegative]

This is the way
I always dreamed it would be
The way that it is, oh oh
When you are holding me
I never had a love of my own
Maybe that's why when we're all alone

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby seems to disappear
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

Lovin' you
It keeps me satisfied
And I can't explain, oh no
The way I'm feeling inside
You look at me we kiss and then
I close my eyes and here it comes again

I can see a lot of life in you
I can see a lot of bright in you
And I think the dress looks nice on you
I can see a lot of life in you

I can see a bed and make it too
I can see a fireside turn blue
And I can see the lot of life in you
Yes, I can see a lot of life in you

When the world looks back
When the face looks after that
I can see a lot of life in you

[righttoplay]

You think you're so bad but you're just badly raised
You twisted and turned all the love that we made
I cannot hold on and I cannot let go
I was wasted at fifteen,
never learned to go slow

[floozyfacade]

God, there is gold hidden deep in the ground
God, there's a hangman that wants to come around

How we rise when we're born
Like the ravens in the corn
On their wings, on our knees
Crawling careless from the sea

God, there are guns growing out of our bones
God, every road takes us farther from home

All these men that you've made
How we wither in the shade
Of your trees, on your wings
We are carried to the sea

God, give us love in the time that we have

[girlalmighty]

we went down to the edge of the water
you were afraid to go in
you said there might be sharks out there in the ocean
and i said i'm only going for a swim

i was swimming around in a circle
i wasn't always in view
you said we might get into red flag danger
and i am alone when i'm not with you

but i am no mermaid
i am no mermaid
and i am no fisherman's slave
i am no mermaid
i am no mermaid
i keep my head above the waves

we were swinging from the centre of the ceiling
you were afraid to give in
i said i know i'll always live for this feeling
and you closed your eyes you said never again

we were dancing in the middle of the desert
you said we'll burn under the hot sun
i said i'd rather be the colour of pleasure
than watch like you from under the thumb

[toanend]

My hands are tied
because I won't say goodbye
I tried
I told you I was brave but I lied

Is this the story or
is this the end?
I always kill your shadow
but here we are again
