I Believe

I'm no hero under torture
I don't crave the taste of pain
Make me pass hell's high waters
You're so cruel ah-hah

Something about you makes me choke
Give me all the reasons
Something about you makes me choke
Watch it - I believe this

I believe in roller-coasters
I believe in Jesus sea
Black and blue love
False and true love
Don't believe you hurt and loved me

I believe in magic carpets
I believe in all I see
Revolution - turning wheels and
I believe I love you better now you've left me
I love you better now you've left me

On fifty days my love depends
And two strong arms to hold me
On fifty days my love depends
As a rule - I am ha

But I'm living without your hand to hold
Give me all the reasons
I'm living without your pirate scrolls
Watch it - I believe this

I believe in roller-coasters
I believe in Jesus sea
Black and blue love
False and true love
I don't believe you've heard the last of me

I believe in magic carpets
I believe in all I see
Revolution - turning wheels and
I believe - I love you better now you've left me
I love you better now you've left me

I love you
Just like the one

Shooting stars - and life on Mars
And Fireflies - and blow-up cars
Rebel machines - and snake pit clean
And more of us in under-grounds

I believe in the rolling (yeah-hah) girls
Pressing danger (yeah-hah) is their own wars
I believe in just (eh-hah) a confusion
Heaps and bounds and thrills and spills and

I believe in roller-coasters
I believe in Jesus sea
False and true love
Black and blue love
I don't believe you've heard the last of me

I believe in magic carpets
Faith and hope and charity
Revolution - turning wheels and
I believe - I love you better now you've left me
I love you better now you've left me
(just like the one ha)
I love you better now you've left me
(just like the one ha)
I love you better now you've left me
(just like the one ah-ha-ah-ha)
(just like the one ah-ha-ah-ha)
(just like the one ah-ha-ah-ha)
(just like the one ah-ha-ah-ha)

Rain

Bodies on fire
Steam rising
Sparkle and shine
Make my heart sing

Yes, I love the rain
Raining down
Raining down on
Yes, I love the rain
Paint my whole town

It's a vital dance
And it keeps us from wars
How the pavements bounce
There's a silver lining

I'm on my way to you - hoo-hoo-oo-hoo
Cloud nine and climbing
Yes, I love the rain
Don't say the angels are crying down now

Yes, I love the rain
They say they smile
And paint my whole town now
I love the rain

What healing hands you've got
So you were born again
From my ey-ey-ey-eyes
What healing hands you've got
Keeps me wondering, wondering, wondering
For why - I love the rain

Bodies on fire
Steam rising
Sparkle and dance
Makes my heart sing

And five drummers drum (heh)
Against my window
Who needs the Sun ?
We've got human day glow -oh

Yes, I love the rain
(Don't) say the angels are crying down now
Yes, I love the rain
I say they smile and
Paint my whole town now
(Yeh-hoo)
Yes, I love the rain
It brings it all back to me yes
Down, down
Yes, (yeh-hoo) I love the rain
Raincoats and shower hats to me
Yes, now oh
Down, down, down-ee

Crush

Hearts sawn by twin blades, I've been
Living on your memorised face, giving
Little shocks and big shocks now and then
Feels like a tramping of a thousand hungry men

You may not be beautiful
But you're beautiful to me
You may not be beautiful
But you're beautiful to me

You move with such rhythm and grace, and I'm
Breathing for your heavenly face, and your
Blue, blue eyes they colour me through and through
They stay in play until I'm equally blue with you

In my dreams, we go down, down, and down again
It's unprintable the pleasure have bed baby
I walk on, left you there
And it tastes so honey
I spend my afternoons
Wasting all my money

You may not be beautiful
But you're beautiful to me
You may not be beautiful
But you're beautiful to me

Give me one hour
And let there be a wicked moon
Give me one hour when
I could really show you

Sixteen minutes is all I need
And name the place and leave the rest up to me
One hour when
I know, I know
I can really hold you

No more clock-watching, there will be
Only a story as old as the hills and
All good things end there
I don't care if they will

I couldn't believe my sinking boots, they go
Faster than my slip-stream wishes do
I walked your ghost around
This mean street to town today
It felt so good I had to cry when I got home alone

In my dreams, we go down, down, and down again
It's unprintable the pleasure have bed baby

You may not be beautiful
But you're you're beautiful to me
Now, now, you may not be beautiful
But you're beautiful to me

No more clock-watching, there will be
Only a story as old as the hills and
All good things end there
I don't care if they will (ee)

(Yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)
You may not be beautiful
Oh but you're beautiful to me
(yah-yee-ah-yeah-oh)

Skin Games

I come from the visiting hand -
And I want to complain of a stranger's hand
I come from the visiting lan -la -land
Now the day - is over
And the night - is drawing nigh
And your love lies like a lover's should lie in clover

I'm going to drink to the bottom of the cup till the day I die
Follow - fickle finger of fate
Tomorrow - is where we will lay
On lovers - of the world high in braids
Spin the wheel of fire again
Spin the wheel of fire
Fire

Shed afar - on healing
Still across - that sullen sky
And the sinking stars, in your eyes and you mean it
Swear I'll drink to the bottom of the cup till the day I die
Let's follow - fickle finger of fate
Tomorrow - is where we will lay

In these Skin Games - it's chased our blues away

Keys To The Kingdom

Change - ask for a change
Oh how can I - when I pray ?
What used to break - my prayers grow
So small and yellow - in the light of day
Sway - like the corn
When turn broken - in the ruthless wind

Give me the keys
To the Kingdom - I'll find my own way
And stone the door - if it takes every born day
Take up and challenge the tree
Challenge the tree when they're made
Give me the keys - to the Kingdom

You, you're so strong
Dark and swooning - brilliant male
One of they - I ask you one of they
To set the world on fire - is the one desire

Give me the keys
To the Kingdom - I'll find my own way
And stone the door - if it takes all my born days
Take up and challenge the tree
Challenge the tree when they're made
Give me the keys - to the Kingdom

I dreamt how the dinner - wrapped high up in honey
Is stealing the sun - leaving cold as water
I dreamt of a devil with the will to blind me, me, me, me
My change - every single change
Oh how can I eh would use to pray ?

Just give me the keys
To the Kingdom, I'll find my own way
And stone the door - if it takes all my born days
Take up and challenge the tree
Challenge the tree when they're made
Give me the keys
To the - Kingdom

And in the sea - bring them to their knees
Or then we'll see - bring them to their knees
We'll bring them to their knees eh, eh, eh, eh, eh....

Welsh Town

I ran the more
My ghost says got young ah ah
I ran the more

I was born in a Welsh town
Streets of smoke smile
There's since for Sundays
And you're never to look back

Heaven is here and now
Heaven is here and now
Oh I'll swear to you

Six feet sorry
Burning a night down
Giving heart to sorrows
And they're never to look back

Heaven is here and now
Heaven is here and now
Oh I'll swear to you
Oh oh oh oh

This is why when the cold wind brings
The banshee to my door
I am safe in the valley green and purple heathered moor
And I remember

Put your hands together
We were scratching in the den
We call it blood, call it thunder
But we will never give in

Heaven is here and now
Heaven is here and now
And I when swear to you
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Look too sweet
In the row of heavens
In the circling sky
In the valleys so green
In the sad king sea
In the circling sky

This is my heaven
In the mountains so high
In my my Welsh town
My my love Welsh town
The love
Ha

I ran the more
I won't say stop that

I ran the more
I won't say stop that
Hoo hoo

I ran the more
My ghost says got young
My ghost says got young ah ah

I ran the more
My ghost says got young

Public Life

Hoo
You've got a gift for the word
To shift like assaults her
Your resolutions they fall
Home on shelled ground -beat blood with a natural look

You can't wait - no you try
Double up I see he's some other son
He's the exit, no you try
To shoot the star, I know what you are

Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile-
Teethed face -eh-eh-eh
Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile-
Teethed face ee-eh,ee-eh,ee-eh,ee-eh,ee-eh-eh-eh

Make me uptight - I want all of your time
To live and let live - the answer is clear
Bright as the sun up above your head
That you never humour it

Easy gotta say - and you make promises
Chameleon, you're a son of a gun
You can't wait - oh you try
You would shoot the star, I know what you are

I see you
Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile-
Teethed face -eh -eh
Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile-
Teethed face

You can't take your pride
And tickle your ev'rything
I need your public li-li-life
Like a kick in the eye, the eye, the eye
Woah -oh -oh -oh -oh -oh -oh
Woo -oo
Woo -oo oo-oo-ooh heh

Hup, hup
Hup
You got a gift for the world
(Hoo-yeh, hah)
(Hup)
And you shift like success
(Hoo-yeh)
Give us a smile like a crocodile
(Hup hi-eh-heh, Hup hi-eh-heh)

He was the one in our red
Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile-
For the man, see him
Smile -aw -aw -aw
For the man, like crocodile

You can't
You can't take your pri- pride
And tickle your ev'rything - hing
I need this public li-li-life
Like a kick in the eye, a kick in the eye, a kick in the
(Woah-oh-oh-oh)

Shifting like and

Shifting like sand

Shifting like and
Shifting like sand

Give for the and

Give for the word

You got it

I see it in your smile
I see it - in your hollow smile
I see it - in your hollow smile
I see, I see
The one in our red
I see, I see
Woo - the one in our red -ah-eh-eh-eh

Precious

Put your faith in - that if this fool could last the end
I would turn in - to a friend you'd recommend
Up above me - I see your hands feed my mouth
And down below me - I hear the wolves are at my door
They're at my door, woo-hoo
They're at my door, woo-hoo

You'd fight again - and though you'll have never expected this
Come close my man - that did betray you with a kiss
You know you used to tell me - that even serpents have to shine
This is my Judas Day - and though you never expected, to hear this line

I'll never ever let you in
Or ever let it begin again
There's a precious part -
To this open heart -
You could never understand
You could never understand

I'll let you go, oo-hoo !!
I'll let you go, oo-hoo !!
I'll let you go, oo-hoo !!
I'll let you go, oo-hoo !!

Lovers - they behave like the weather,
When they hunger - they change in the other,
It's the- start- of emotional murder
Torn apart - like the wolves, at your door
Like the wolves, at your door

Oh, Let it go, oo-hoo !!
Let it go, oo-hoo !!
Oh, Let it go, oo-hoo !!
Let it go, oo-hoo !!

You moulded me - before the Paris plaster set
I broke the cast - (the tape ran out...)
