Dog barking,breathless in the heat
Neighbours gossiping out on the street
Warm concrete under shattered glass
Tread carefully in the underpass
The City Falls Into Your Eyes
Cold rain, Warm endless skies...
Time crawling Monday afternoon
Parking meter with a red balloon
Newspaper -Ice cream in the park
Better stay clear when its after dark
The City Falls Into Your Eyes
Cold Rain Warm endless skies..
AND THE CAROUSEL GOES ON
JUST A MOMENT THEN YOU'RE GONE
THOUGH YOU THINK YOUR LIFE WON'T CHANGE
THE FAMILIAR SOON SEEMS STRANGE
AND THE CITY FALLS INTO YOUR EYES
AND YOU TRY TO MAKE IT HOME THROUGH SUNSET SKIES...
Cities falling down
We're all living with the things we've found
Cities moving round
Everybodies in a strange town..

Looking back at the 2 of us
I'm looking back at the 2 of us
I see 2 children playing on 2 climbing frames
Butlers n bells
My nick-knacks my Shells
Unhappy almanacs
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING
I remember at the wedding when she came to kiss the groom
I fell for the wrong one and went rolling in the aisles
Looking back at the 2 of us
I'm looking back at the 2 of us
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING
I SEE ANGELS WHEN I'M FALLING

The Strangest Feeling
03:18

Thought i heard a whisper on the wind..
Thought i saw a message in the open sky..
Summer days will soon be here again
They travel round the world but never leave your side
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING...
BUT I CAN'T HOLD IT UP OR SING I'VE GOT THE BLUES
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING
THAT I'VE BEEN WOKEN UP I'M WALKIN' IN YOUR SHOES...
Its so good to feel the morning sun
Shinin' from my window what a golden light
Could it be that Summer has begun?
Or is it just the darkness has slipped out of sight?
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING...
BUT I CAN'T HOLD IT UP OR SING I'VE GOT THE BLUES
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING
THAT I'VE BEEN WOKEN UP I'M WALKIN' IN YOUR SHOES...
Reach across the ocean when you rise
Touch the perfect stranger on a foreign shore
Tho there's still the distance in your eyes
You seem a little closer than you did before..
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING...
BUT I CAN'T HOLD IT UP OR SING I'VE GOT THE BLUES
I GET THE STRANGEST FEELING
THAT I'VE BEEN WOKEN UP I'M WALKIN' IN YOUR SHOES.

The Other Summer
02:55

Sweating 'neath the hot sky
Naked in the sand
Orchid breeze and Olive trees
Summer scents arise
Talking to Alisha
Who's filled with other plans
I can see why we can't be
Looking through her eyes
THE WEEKS GO ON AND ON AND ON
THE DAYS NEVER END
I WISH THE SUN WOULD SET ON THE OTHER SUMMER....
We're playing in The Ghetto
and they're waiting for the band
Hearts can grieve but love is free
when you make them smile !
So let's drink to our holiday nation
Yeh lets have a drink for everyone
Raise that ghost and make a toast
For the extra mile...
THE WEEKS GO ON AND ON AND ON
THE DAYS NEVER END
I WISH THE SUN WOULD SET ON THE OTHER SUMMER....

Girls On The Beach

Girls on the beach in the summertime
Making their play for the eye
Catching the sun..Dreaming of someone..
Shaking their hair
They know that you're there
They aint so dumb
In the sun
Yes they know your mind..
YOU CAN HEAR THEM LAUGHING
HOPING INSIDE THAT THE JOKES NOT ON YOU
AS YOU WATCH THEM WALKING OUT OF VIEW...
Girls on the beach in the summertime
empty their heads to the sky
Gathering round to whisper aloud
About Chico and Jaques, Ramano and Zak, Jose and Juan
In the sun
Yes they know your kind
YOU CAN HEAR THEM LAUGHING
HOPING INSIDE THAT THE JOKES NOT ON YOU
AS YOU WATCH THEM WALKING OUT OF VIEW...
GIRLS ON THE BEACH IN THE SUMMERTIME GO ON....

Gave her heart to Valerie and shared her with the word
They were friends of Richard Perkins

In a band with Betty who flew too close to the sun
They were friends of Richard Perkins

Mario and Marilyn were tied together well
Spent a lifetime bickering and waiting for the bell
They were friends of Richard Perkins

White Gold

Lost my papers on the wind
I ran till i was out of sight
I tried to reach up but the sky was sinking
Drinking till the bitter end
of broken veins and shattered dreams
I was falling till the day she walked in
SHE BROUGHT ME WHITE GOLD TO CATCH THE SUN
FISHING FOR A WAY TO LIFE
I CAST AWAY
When the neon flickered out
I held her in the darkened night
I gave her everything i had worth taking.
Then she whispered like a prayer
"i lost the world for you and i-
I'm just a mirror for the love you're making"
SHE BROUGHT ME WHITE GOLD TO CATCH THE SUN
FISHING FOR A WAY TO LIFE
I CAST AWAY
SHE BROUGHT ME WHITE GOLD AND I WAS YOUNG
WAKING UP TO SEE THE WORLD SHE MADE ME

Love Prediction

HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
Don't even know you yet
Our eyes have never met
I've never spoke your name
It seems such a shame
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
I've never seen your face
Don't even know the lace
I don't know when or where
But i'll know when you're there..
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT FOR YOU
WHEN WILL LOVE PREDICTION COME TRUE ?
I miss you already and i don't even know you
I miss you already and i don't even know you
I miss you already and i don't even know your name...

Gone Are The Days

I'm travelling from winter to Belize
waiting for my baby
she knows that i go anywhere i please
I'm looking at her pictures on the wall
waiting for my baby
she knows i'm always gonna find it all
GONE ARE THE DAYS
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF BEING ALONE
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF LEAVING HOME
JUST MEET ME AT THE WORLD TONIGHT
GONE ARE THE DAYS
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF BEING ALONE
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF THE UNKNOWN
ITS ALL BEHIND THE WINDOW LIGHT NOW.....
The red hot bubbles in the sun
waiting for my baby
she knows she's probably not the only one
who's reaching out for love by hangin' out
but every waking moment
we know there's always something new to shout
GONE ARE THE DAYS
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF BEING ALONE
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF LEAVING HOME
JUST MEET ME AT THE WORLD TONIGHT
GONE ARE THE DAYS
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF BEING ALONE
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF THE UNKNOWN
ITS ALL BEHIND THE WINDOW LIGHT NOW.....

Flotsam And Jetsam

You never know what'll happen (I wonder why)
You never know what is coming ( I wonder why)
You gotta widen your perspective
You gotta think big,big,big..
THE FLOTSAM AND THE JETSAM OF THE STRATOSPHERE
AND THEY ALL LOOKED UP IN WONDER
AS THE IMAGE BECAME CLEAR
A REFLECTION OF THE DEBRIS IN THE UNIVERSE
AND THE MOON CAN'T TELL ME WHY
No one thought to slow down (I wonder why)
No one thought to stop (I wonder why)
You gotta widen your perspective
You gotta think big,big,big..
THE FLOTSAM AND THE JETSAM OF THE STRATOSPHERE
AND THEY ALL LOOKED UP IN WONDER
AS THE IMAGE BECAME CLEAR
A REFLECTION OF THE DEBRIS IN THE UNIVERSE
AND THE MOON CAN'T TELL ME WHY

He was a wanderer from London Town
Chasing his tale from bar to bar
and though his stories were long
they wove into song
and sang out beneath the stars
and every night he would dream his dream
of a woman who was the one
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN HER EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE
She was the Belle of the Brighton ball
She had the world at her perfumed feet
With all her diamonds and pearls,Princes and Earls
You'd think that her life was sweet
but every night she would dream her dream
of a lover who'd bring the sun
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN HIS EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE
Upon a winters night as the snow was faling
She heard a voice that wove into song
and as a wanderers face came through the dark
A dream begun...
He was a wanderer from London Town
She was the Belle of the Brighton ball
and though their worlds were apart
they knew in their heart
A love that could conquer all
So every night now they dream their dreams
As the music plays on and on
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN THEIR EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN THEIR EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN THEIR EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE
WITH A GLINT OF THE POET IN THEIR EYES
AND THE GIFT OF A SILVER TONGUE !!
