Taking a walk
Through the valley of a roadside
Taking a walk through the valley of a roadside
on a sunny afternoon
Smoking a smoke
Through the streets of a poppy field
Smoking a smoke through the streets of a poppy field
on a sunny afternoon
I'm travelling down a man made avenue
Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through

Are you with me
on my journey
Are you with me in the search for the sunshine
On a sunny afternoon

Now I'm driving in my car
Down the path of a hillside
On a sunny afternoon
Holding your hand
Down a lane made for lovers
on a sunny afternoon
I'm travelling down a man made avenue
Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through



I'm travelling down a man made avenue
Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through

Last night in my dreams
I saw you with another
And when I turned around, you were gone
It all came back to me
Through a postman and this letter
That bought the words, I fell in love with another
How does it feel, when you wake up in the morning
Do you ever think of me lying here
Cause when I go to sleep
you become my pillow,
and I hold you tight, and whisper into your ear

Does he hold you, the way I used to
Does he smile at you from the center of his heart
Does he live for you, would he die for you
if you told him that you wanted him
could he love you, the way I always will
could you ask him to

I ventured out today, I really wish I hadn't
Cause everything I seen and heard made me think of you
I know I have to get over you but at present I'm finding it hard to do
So I beg you please, to take a moment to ask:..



Now I'm a speck on your horizon
A fading light inside your eye
I've come to understand that you were far beyond me
but I'll never understand exactly the reasons why
you never explained to me

We're all the same now
We're all the same
We're all the same now
We're all the same

In this picture
I'm going to try and get an overview
In this picture
The lines are blurred but my colors are shining through
I start with a canvas
And think about what I want to achieve
From another angle
The paintings gonna make a print of me
Choose the texture

Carot gold, the kind fit for a king
But that aint what I'm about
So I'll take this earth and I'll mix it in
Now my paintings ready to begin
But how big should it be
Big enough for the mantlepiece of every home
Or small enough for my back pocket and me



I start with the heart now
The rest will develop from its beat
As it takes shape
The picture no longer resembles me
It resembles every living thing I've ever seen or heard
From the heart of me to a flying bird
So now how big should this picture be
Should it fill the world or my back pocket and me
In this picture
Im going to try and get an overview
In this picture
The lines are blurred but my colors are shining through



Everything, everything will be ok
It will be ok
Cos now I know how this picture should be
it should fill the world, but it also should fill me
my backpocket and me....

Sleep peacefully now my child
I hope that you go away
To a place where your dreams can play
Wipe all the tears from your eyes
There is a sky of blue
This is your time of truth

Like a bird high on the wind
May you fly away
Like a snowfall in the spring
may you cares melt away
CHILD, innocent child
our hope lies inside
your starry eyes
my innocent child

Hero, now that you are free
You have no need to fear
so go out and find your smile
Like a candle in the stream
May you float away
Like a feather on the breeze
May you blow away


Like a candle,
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
like a bird:fly away
Like a candle,
like a snowfall
like a feather
like a bird..fly away



Sleep peacefully now my child
I hope that you go away
to a place where you dreams can play

She heard a voice from so far away
It told her her mother had gone away
In the next room down the corridor
Her baby started to cry
Her whole life had just fell apart
There was nothing then the hurting started
In her heavy head on her knees she prayed
could somebody help her

Clementine
It was never meant to be this way
It was never meant to be this way
Clementine
It was never meant to be this way
it was never meant to be this way
If only I'd told you yesterday

Got in her car and she sped away
Into the floodlit street down by your way
As the sun rose by the morning dew
Well she returned in such a state
Her baby knew not what was going on
But it could tell from her tears that something was wrong with mum
Desperation let out its final scream
But our clementine didn't hear a damn thing



Into the mirror she stared at herself
Asked is that my life is that what I'm here for
Her reflection chose not to respond
As she froze to the spot like a cold hard statue
And bathed in her tears she said her time was through

Sitting at home with my head in my hands
Wondering what the day's gonna bring
Sitting alone with my feet in the sand
Been waiting for a change in direction
Dreaming of days when the night never came
Wishing for a night with no day
Dreaming of a life where the bulb never blows
Wishing to be left in the darkness

Today I know where I'm going
Tomorrow I'll be somewhere else
This morning I'll be a somebody
This evening I'm finding myself
Well are you confused, I guess you would be, so, so am I

Thinking of people calling my name but living life in solitude
Thinking of receiving an OBE, but it was over before I knew
Thinking of kissing a girl in the park but I'd rather be walking my dog
Thinking of teaching myself to play chess but i'd rather play drafts instead

Is it true, what they say
did you really lose your way
Up and down i see you stroll
never looking out, to see which way to go
Should i stop to ask you why
Should i stop and take a wander round
with me


To where you always wanted to go
Where you've never been before
a place where you can take off,
your hat, and your coat
I'll make a cup of tea
You can talk, to me
When you wanna leave i'll take you
When you wanna leave i'll take you
When you wanna leave i'll take you home.

Where do you go inside your head
space and emptyness, becomes your flower bed
In your veins a knowledged man
kids are looking up, to find his master plan
When i see your eyes i'll ask you why
Would you like to rest your legs and fly
with me



silver hair, tired feet, walking the world every day
short of words, full of love, could you help me, i'm on my way

Looking at me through the eye of a needle
is a scary thing to do
I feel a mole hill lies in front of me to climb
Is your primary purpose in life
to scrutinize every move I make
cos if it is I think your wasting precious time

Well I know that I have got a job to do
And I know, that my job is pleasing you, but

I am what I am
The way god made me
I am what I am
Don't try and change me

Well I know I have my weaknessess
as you point them out to me
but our confont the spots of doubt as they arise
Never born to be a leader
but I'll take my role with pride
cos a soldier with his honours lies inside

Well I know that I have got a job to do
As you say, that my job revolves around you
I am what I am
The way god made me
I am what I am
Don't try and change me

Well I know that I have got a job to do
But my life, wasn't made:for you

I am what I am
The way god made me
I am what I am
Don't try and change me

I am what I am
The way god made me

Could somebody give me an answer
a solution to fill up my space
As I take a peep out of the whole in my window
I see a land that is filled with disgrace
Now is it me, or did it used to seem better?
Now I tear grows in every man's eye
but the tear never once reached the surface
And the tree which I climbed slowly dies

Is that what its all about
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what its all about?

A cure aint been found for my problem just yet
behind the wrought iron gate, it is there, I bet
but the key got a caught in a fishermans net
With a dolphin the boy wanted for his pet
Well I know I aint getting no younger
pretty soon I guess I'll be extinct
and all that I'll leave to remember
is this problem I once paused to think

Is that what its all about
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what its all about?

Put it behind you
Turn a blind eye
Though you always know that its here
Living your life through the line of defence
I stand for myself, is that what its all about?

Johnny [x16] Johnny's a child, we better watch out
was top of the class before he was even born
Johnny was hard, he was nails, we were not
and when he opened his mouth, then out came the foghorn

Gimme your money or I'll have ya
Gimme some food or your dead
Gimme the answers to your homework
Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Stuck in such a funny place
has no name, no time, no space
heading for the pavement once again
been here many times before
between the ceiling and the floor
heading for the pavement once again

Oh dear I'm back here again (now I'm back again)
Oh dear I'm back here again (now I'm back again, now I'm back again)
Johnny [repeatedly]

Johnny was mean
captain of the rugby team
six feet tall with a fist like a bowling ball
Johnny was mad, mad, Johnny was bad
he was hungry for blood and he screamed down my earhole

Gimme your money or I'll have ya gimme some food or your dead
gimme the answers to your homework
gimme gimme gimme gimme

stuck in such a funny place
has no name, no time, no space
heading for the pavement once again
been here many times before
between the ceiling and the floor
heading for the pavement once again

Oh dear I'm back here again (now I'm back again) [x3]

Johnny [repeatedly]
Gimme your money or I'll have ya
gimme some food or your dead
gimme the answers to your homework
gimme gimme gimme gimme

I'm falling [x2]
Stuck in such a funny place
has no name, no time, no space
heading for the pavement once again
been here many times before
between the ceiling and the floor
heading for the pavement once again

Oh dear I'm back here again (now I'm back again) [x4]
Johnny [repeatedly to fade]

Ok so now its over
It'll never be the same again
The shade has changed its color
The light is shining through you
Cause its over
Its time for you to face the fact
You've got yourself a whole new track
The problem aint without
Don't hide under your pout
Cause its over

You gotta move on
move up, and move through
You've gotta move out
move up, real soon

Nobody knows the sadness that I'm feeling today
nobody knows

Who said that it was over
Don't let your efforts go to waste
You've done your time of graft
Let go and you'd be daft
It aint over
You've gotta come to terms with it
Don't get left in the has been pit
You've still got seven lives
The trier never dies
it aint over

You gotta move on
move up, and move through
You've gotta move out
move up, real soon

Don't be afraid to take hold of your reins
Don't be afraid to wipe clear your blackened slate

We're still waiting out here for you
we're still waiting come back soon
you said that you'd make things better
but we're still waiting in the queue

The queue of Mr You [x2]

Mr You in your pinstripe suit
with your hair slicked back from an oil pack
and your handkerchief in your pocket shaded blue
my friends put their faith in you
so you took their minds and then turned the screw
and now I see them queuing in the queue

The queue of Mr You [x2]

Mr You you're looking flash with you're highlife strapped upon your back
and your 52 week holiday per year
champagne corks pop in your ear
the only sound that you choose to hear
mute the voices of the people in the queue

The queue of Mr You [x2]
we're still waiting out here for you
we're still waiting in the queue

People are talking
they're starting to walk away
better start watching, coz people are leaving

The queue of Mr You [x2]
we're still here, waiting out here for you
we're still waiting, come back soon
you said that you'd make things better
but we're still waiting in the queue

The queue of Mr You [x2]
you said that you'd make things better [fade out]

Today I feel a change,
in the way you look at me
And all I have to say
is that I like it
Today I feel a change
In your glowing, loving, chestnut eyes
And all that I can say
is that I feel it

You are everything to me
You are everything I need

My love
And so much more than that
My love
And so much more:so much more

Today I hear a change
In your gentle, whispering singing voice
And all I have to say
is keep talking
Today I felt a change
as your hands, they touched the soul of me
And all I have to say
is keep touching

You make this world for me
You are all that I could be

My love
And so much more than that
My love
And so much more:so much more

I never knew
What love was all about,
until I started looking at you
No one ever tried to tell or show me so I finally figured it out for myself,
that what you need:
is someone, who without, you can't breathe

My love
And so much more than that
My love
And so much more:so much more

How I wish, that I could be like you
How I wish, that I could feel like you
How I hope, that I touch you..like you.

My love
And so much more than that
My love
And so much more:so much more..

Loving comes naturally
Loving comes naturally

As the sun rises above
Shadows are formed
of the two of us
As the bird calls out its song
See flowers dance
with the two of us
as we bare our souls
to the purest form
And let our hearts run free

Loving comes naturally
Loving comes naturally

As the sun hides in the shade
Rain takes its place
Cleanse the two of us
Drink the falls
Feeding the lands, flowing to sea
Just the two of us
As we see our world
From deep inside
And turn our flames up high

Loving comes naturally
Loving comes naturally

Playing outside as the rains coming
Was under the shade of the tree
Was under the shade of that apple tree
That eve gave her love to me
