Come inside
Take a look around me
Did you think you'd find
something that you'd want to keep
Shut me out
Send me to the real world
Though I want to go
I haven't finished what I know
This is where you tell me
how it's gonna be
From this moment on now
what I can never leave
This is where you show me
just where I belong
This is where I find out
what I knew all along
His father's law
is waiting in the hallway
But behind this door
we are still a world away
The future's fear
and every shameful moment
Come together here
in the quiet of the afternoon
This is where you tell me
how it's gonna be
From this moment on now
what I can never leave
This is where you show me
just where I belong
This is where I find out
what I knew all along
I knew all along
Where did I go wrong
Kicking up the summer's leaves
I feel I'm fighting destiny
You don't belong here
Taste the rain upon my face
And think of all the places
You can't escape from
I found you too late
So much of your life
Won't go away
Pictures in your wardrobe
All of your love
Scattered on the road
Where do you go
Who do you run to
Are you alone when we're apart
Where do you go
Who do you turn to
Are you at home here in my heart
You're telling me it's not so bad
There seems so much
you need to add
Maybe you mean it
If I ask then you could go
But if I don't I'll never know
And I need to so much
I found you too late
So much of your life
Won't go away
Pictures in your wardrobe
All of your love
Scattered on the road
Where do you go
Who do you run to
Are you alone when we're apart
Where do you go
Who do you turn to
Are you at home here in my heart
And while you're trying
not to show it
I'm trying harder not to notice
I will act just like my old self
Vivacious and carefree
To stop you from saying it
If you have to let it happen
Put me through it if you must
But tomorrow you will love the
One who loves you so today
I remember all the good times
Like you say I'm bound to do
Do you think it all just vanishes
Just because you want it to
If you have to let it happen
Put me through it if you must
But tomorrow you will love the
One who loves you so today
Save your feelings
Yes I know it's not
the end of the world
All that meaning
was always wasted on this girl
Tell me, I know what it's about
You held it when you had to
But now it's coming out
You're saying
the things you never said
You cover it in poetry
and send it on ahead
You must never know
You must never know
You must never know
How near
And if you find that fire
If you find that freshness
If you make it all worthwhile
Big moon, big moon on the rise
Holding me forever
Magnet to my eyes
Thinking
About the things they said
Fifty years away now
This will all be dead
You must never know
You must never know
You must never know
How near
Hot ashes on the breeze
In a dream that I'm having
Sickness falling at my feet
Got a heavy heavy head now
Got a funny taste in my mouth
Got a world that leaves
me dreaming
On confusion in the morning
I get by
And I never have to try
Time to time
I let it all unwind
Gone I was really gone
But I know what I told you
and I promise it was wrong
Oh your care oh your lovely car
The mess I must have made
I guess I should be in disgrace
Should I take you to the movies
Or go walking in the cemetery
Should I think of you
at daybreak
With a smile and a heartache
Maybe I should come
and make you smile
Maybe I should learn
to love this life
Gone I was really gone
But I know what I told you
and I promise it was wrong
Oh your care oh your lovely car
The mess I must have made
I guess I should be in disgrace
I don't know the rules
I don't know the language
Where d'you learn the rules
Where d'you learn the language
Lightning strikes and you awaken
To a whispered threat
you nearly heard
You've been dreaming bad dreams
And you know just
what they mean
How you gonna tell your mother
How you gonna make them
understand
All the love and sacrifice
Come to nothing
if you're right
Awake until the morning
You try to close your eyes
The longer that you leave it
The more it grows inside
Go away
Nothing ever can impress you
After feeling how you do today
I can hear it as you speak
Cos it happened once to me
Awake until the morning
You try to close your eyes
The longer that you leave it
The more it grows inside
Go away
And the city sun will bring
it back to me again
Melting yearning into memory
and memory to shame
I feel like crying
Really crying
My eyes are aching
and mu throat is sore
It's the way I feel
when nothing's ever happening
It's the poison in the air
and it's the people on the rise
Oh so slowly
Taking over
Till I don't know
how to ever stop
Over and over in my head
till I don't know
what I feel about it
Don't try to make me understand
when there's nothing
I can do about it
So they sit me down and tell me
that I'm special here
I'm so special I could
almost be like them
I'll do my job here
I'll follow to the letter
But I can't love it
and that is not enough
Over and over in my head
till I don't know what I feel about it
Don't try to make me understand
where there's nothing I can do about it
I was lonely
I was looking for a guy
Just somebody there
to pass the time
You were easy
You appeared and then I knew
This one is mine
this one will do
And I remember trying to hold on
Just to savour what I'd
waited for so long
In the back of a taxi cab
I felt a nervous hand upon my thigh
as London whistled by
We were young we were ill at ease
but everything came easily to me
I wish there could have been
a better ending
Sunday morning
and you're waiting for a plane
to take you far away from me
Bye bye baby
is the beast that I can do
I hope it meant enough to you
And I remember trying to hold on
Just to savour what I'd
waited for so long
In the back of a taxi cab
I felt a nervous hand upon my thigh
as London whistled by
We were young we were ill at ease
but everything came easily to me
I wish there could have been
a better ending
Another year another address
The same old feeling
and the same restless mess
They are blind and we have sight
The world is mad and we are right
That's your motto
That's your line
All the logic in the world
Could never make me follow you
We just have to live and learn
If walking on the hills
above your city
Almost made me into
what you wished of me
It only took a fortnight
in the factory
To convince me all I wanted
was to leave
Send you letters, send me shame
Lying listless on the floor
We listened to the radio
Till the early hours of dawn
Knowing soon that I'd be gone
The thought that you would carry on
Seemed to linger on and on
But yesterday is like
another year now
Like a diary that's locked and
thrown away
And what if I decide
to dream about it
What if I decide and
find that it's too late
Send you letters, send me shame
Took a breath of English air
And told myself I didn't care
Ride a cliche from despair
Smelt the gin upon my sheets
And wake up in the afternoon
Now the ending was complete
I was crazy for a week
I couldn't wake, I couldn't sleep
Dreaming messages from
people in the deep
Came around to see you there
then you vanished into air
Took a shower washed the
demons from my hair
Look for changes in your life
but the changes are inside
Still imagining
some distant paradise
First you're told the reason why
then you're told to join the fight
Takes a week before you're
asked to spend the night
Taking me over sending me under
How do I
escape from everything inside
Taking me over sending me under
How do I
escape from everything inside
All I wanted long ago
is ridiculous I know
They can pity me but
you can take me home
One intention from the start
Take me to your lonely heart
Let me understand it
like nobody else
Taking me over sending me under
How do I
escape from everything inside
Taking me over sending me under
How do I
escape from everything inside
