I don't ask to hold your hand
You slip yours into mine
Silently, we walk along
We stumble home at night
And it's so dark along these streets
Since they took out the street lights
You get scared so easily
That you give me half a fright
I turn the landing light on
I turn the heating on full
I know we don't really need it, darling
But we don't wanna catch a chill
I head into the kitchen
And pour a couple of glasses of wine
Cos I know whose arms you'll be in tonight
And I know the answer is mine
Oh, shut my eyes
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming
Sunlight streams into my eyes
It always brings me to
I didn't mean to wake you, darling
But I can't keep my eyes off of you
And when you leave
I will walk you out the door
Cos I know it won't be long until
You come back into the warm
Oh, shut my eyes
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming
And when you leave
I will walk you out the door
Cos I know it won't be long until
You come back into the warm
Oh, shut my eyes
Shut my eyes
Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming
Shut my eyes, shut my eyes
Oh, when I shut my eyes
I'm dreaming

Burning Candle

She went away
She went away
Woe is me!
Woe is me!
I'll keep a candle burning
I'll keep a candle
Burning for you
Burning for you
I'll keep a candle burning
Now, I'll keep a candle
Burning for you
For when you come home
She went away
She went away
Woe is me!
Woe is me!
A light in the darkness, waiting
A light in the darkness
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
A light in the darkness, waiting
A light in the darkness
Waiting for you
For when you come home
She went away
She went away
Woe is me!
Woe is me!

So lay down
Gently my dear
Try not to worry
Anytime soon
The trust
The trust in your eyes
Went with the summer
So sleep with your lies
We lost ourselves a long time ago
Still we try, still we fall
Make me believe there's something left, please
Something good
That something could
Happen
So lay down
Gently my dear
Try not to worry
Anytime soon
The trust
The trust in your eyes
Went with the summer
So sleep with your lies
We lost ourselves a long time ago
Still we try, still we fall
Make me believe there's something left, please
Something good
That something could
Happen
We lost ourselves a long time ago
Still we try, still we fall
Make me believe there's something left, please
Something good
That something could...

Under The Lindens

I think we broke some records
I think we caused quite a din
We talk just about, about
Just about everything
Outside is one grey cloud
But our clothes are still stuck to our skin
And the knife just missed my fingers
As I cut more limes for our gin
You can't be in love to hold
That whole season
Let's lie here all night to hold
And I fear that night's too cold
My head is spinning
And I'm scared to put weight on my feet
I thought more about, about
How I could think my way out
Of the place where I'm held captive
In some anxious sleepless state
And the glass just slipped my fingers
As I cut more limes for our gin
You can't be in love to hold
That whole season
Let's lie here all night to hold
And I fear that night's too cold
Words don't come
From my dry tongue
The words don't come
From my dry tongue
And it doesn't matter who they wanna hold...
(You can't be in love...)

River Home

My home is the river
My soul is the sinner
And it feels so long ago
And it feels so long ago
My home is the river
My soul is the sinner
And it feels so long ago
And it feels so long ago
She said don't worry about the future
It'll flow to you
She said don't worry about the future
Let it flow
She said don’t worry about the future
It’ll flow to you
She said don’t worry about the future
My home is the river
My soul is the sinner
And it feels so long ago
And it feels so long ago
She said don't worry about the future
It'll flow to you
She said don't worry about the future
Let it flow
She said don’t worry about the future
It’ll flow to you
She said don’t worry about the future
My home
My home
My home is the river

Gone To Sea
05:22
|
|||
We gather on the shore
To part without remorse
Gone to find abroad
What can't be found at home
Say goodbye to all the boys
Say goodbye to all the boys
Goodbye, for the last time
Goodbye, for the last time
Gone, gone, gone
They're gone to sea
Gone, gone, gone
They're gone to sea
Now they're gone
They're gone to sea
And they're gone
Without me
When strong winds prevail
The town's heart will set sail
For those who are left behind
We fight hard not to cry
We stumble from that port
We're desperate to make sure
We base our lives around
Those who stay firmly on the ground
Say goodbye to all the boys
Say goodbye to all the boys
Goodbye, for the last time
Goodbye, for the last time
Gone, gone, gone
They're gone to sea
Gone, gone, gone
They're gone to sea
Now they're gone
They're gone to sea
And they're gone
Without me
Goodbye, for the last time
Goodbye, for the last time

Setting Sun
04:26
|

I cannot accept
That I have missed the point
The fact that I can feel it
It's a simple choice
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
I know that there lies plenty
In the miniature
To float upon a breath
That could create a tear
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
I step into the blue
And then I come alive
My fingers with yours
And then I realise
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
A hunger set in motion
With a fleeting glance
A river to an ocean
There's no need to think
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
It's the setting sun
