when it was raining
i went to your house
and as usual
you were just going out
but you said
please sit down
it was nice
to come round
shall i tell you
what i couldn’t
on the phone
please sit down
CH : your face
didn’t change
but now the world is
strange strange strange
your face
with the window frame behind
and now the world is
really out of line
i even embraced you
i thought that i might
put my arms round your shoulders
i thought that i might
you were just going out
but you said
please sit down
it was nice
to come round
shall i tell you
what i couldn’t
on the phone
please sit down
it was still raining that night when i left
and the building was glowing with light when i left
what will you
dream of now
it’s all out
of your power
do the waiting
do the hoping
but it’s all out of your power
CH : your face
with the window frame behind
and now the world is
really out of line

sometimes love
03:57
|
|||
sometimes love is friendly
sometimes love is kind
sometimes she is easy
leaves the pain behind
sometimes love is waiting
sometimes love is now
you anticipating
things may change, but how
but we know who we are
we know who we are
we need a little love
we want a little love
let’s make a little love love love
we need a little love
let’s show a little love
and share a little love love love love love comes through now
sometimes love is inside
sometimes love is through
sometimes love is outside
it’s all the world and you

shirley's song
04:47
|
|||
i knew that you were handsome
but did not recall
that you were tall
your eyes clearer than most
pull me, pull me close
i knew i was hoping
you would take a chance
and you would call
your voice
new in my ear
pulls me, pulls me near
ch : life
can’t be all sad
every tide
must turn
you picked me up, you lift me off the ground
you picked me up, you lift me off the ground
see the tide turning

treasure on the road
04:24
|
|||
i’ve been thinking hard to get the measure of you
but thinking won’t pull back the pleasure of you
you turned up on the street like something shiny, darling
always finding treasure on the road
lying on my bed i cannot see the ceiling
cos you have covered us in clouds of bitter healing
fit to fill my lungs your scorpion death, that stung me
always finding treasure on the road
ch : lies
you told them by the million
and i
i turned out to be
so desperate to believe
that things were better than they seemed
that i believed
i could have loved you more if you had stayed for longer
but you had different plans and voices that were stronger
the letters that i wrote i know they will not reach you
always finding treasure on the road
ch : lies
you told them by the million
and i
i turned out to be
so desperate to believe
that things were better than they seemed
that i believed

message from the king
04:19
|
|||
here i am
master of myself
you come into my land
with a message from the king
let’s go and walk a while
for we have things to say
then when the silence comes
peace will have its day (x2)

song for linda lovelace
04:33
|
|||
no song to sing
take me to that broad deep opening
and throw me in
no gift to bring
scattered with the dust from that machine
no gift to bring
CH: take the car
let’s drive down to the coast
through the trees
to the times
you love most
on that road
that winds down to the sea
linda’s here
lola’s here
just we three
one holy day
no fare to pay
please just come inside and step this way
all free for you today
CH : take a boat
let’s ride into the bay
lose the land
there it goes
just a wave
in that place
the one you love the most
linda’s here
lola’s here
holding close
one holy day

anti war song
03:27
|
|||
you think it’s going to work
another little war –
oh no, oh no.
you think you’re going to win
it’s what you are here for –
oh no, oh no.
the people rising up
the people spilling out –
oh yeah, oh yeah
the people finding out
just what it’s all about
oh yeah, oh yeah
CH : so tell me, what part of this is that is working?
What part of this is it we should save?
40 years and more i have been planning my escape
lied to from the cradle to the grave
you think you’ve got it all
you think you’ve got it made
oh no, oh no
we see the towers fall
and everyone must pay
oh no, oh no
CH : you believe in evil when the mirror shows its face
like you believe in bombing for the peace
you may believe that bilderberg will hold you in your place
but baby we can bring you to your knees
we’re swallowing the pills
we wallow in the porn
oh yeah, oh yeah
but it’s in days like these
that better things are born
oh yeah, oh yeah
CH : what part of this is it that is working?
What part of this is it we should save?
40 years and more i have been planning my escape
lied to from the cradle to the grave
shafted from the cradle to the grave
dancing from the cradle to the grave
dreaming from the cradle to -

om song
04:55
|
|||
See it is wide
See it is tall
See it is high
Outside the house
Over the wall
Up to the sky
CH : Please come and see
Please come and look
Please come and see
I’m painting such a picture of this dream
See it is here
See it is now
See it is at hand
Inside the heart
Under the brow
Over the land
CH
Om to the towers, Om to the soldiers, Om the suffering
Om to the living, om to the giving, om to the women
Om to the mothers, om to the brothers, om to the wounded
Om to the rivers, om the forgivers, om the rebuilders
Om to the heart, that‘s where it starts, om to the rhythm
CH, then : i’m watching till the breaking of this dream
See it uncurl
Floating like smoke
This is a world, yeah, this is, this
(Love is all you need)

yellow rose
02:45
|
|||
behold the yellow rose
it’s glowing from behind
oh i buy, i buy what i like
you see the space in front
you feel the space behind
oh i buy, i buy what i like
you little wreaths of electricity
you comfort me
you little hearts of yellow in the dark
that’s where i pause
and stop
and start
