Hunting high and low
[Verse 1]
Here I am
And within the reach of my hands
She's sound asleep
And she's sweeter now than the wildest dream
Could've seen her
And I watch her slipping away
But I know I'll be
[Chorus]
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to lengths I'll go
[Verse 2]
To find her again
Upon this, my dreams are depending
Through the dark
I sense the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I guess I'll be
[Chorus]
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and low
High
Do you know what it means to love you?
[Bridge]
I'm hunting high and low
And now she's telling me she's got to go away
[Chorus]
I'll always be hunting high and low
Only for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
There's never a forever thing
Dearest...
Close your eyes now
Don't you cry
It's all right
Lie back
Leave the lights on
It's all right, dear
I'll be here through the night
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come tonight
It's all right now
Don't you cry now
Hush...
Wipe your tears away
There's never a forever thing
All through the night
I'll try so hard to be there somehow
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come
Tonight
Darling, don't you
Cry.
Crying in the rain
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Only heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
Since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool but 'til then, darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool but 'til then, darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Early morning
Early morning
Eight o'clock precise
I see the lonely August sun arise
Say you know
You will
Move me like you do
Out on the fields
I'm waiting the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah
Ran the whole way
Down to the tracks
Through the doorway, then a last look back
Say you know
You will
Save me like you do
Out on the fields
I've waited the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah
I climbed all the stairways
To find the rooftop clear
Got the shotgun lying with me here
Say you know
You will
Move me like you do
Out on the fields
You know how it feels, yeah
Early morning, early morning, yeah
Early morning
Eight o'clock precise
I've been losing you
It wasn't the rain that washed away...
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes
Putting the gun down on the bedside table
I must have realized
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
And I could have sworn it wasn't me
Yet I did it all so coldly
Almost slowly
Plain for all to see
Oh c'mon please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
How can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I've been losing you
I can still hear our screams competing
You're hissing your s's like a snake
Now in the mirror stands
Half a man
I thought no one could break
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
Nervously drumming on:Run away
But I want the guilt to get me
Thoughts to wreck me
Preying on my mind
So, please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
For how can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I've been losing you
Take on me
We're talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay?
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
Oh, the things that you say, yeah
Is it life or
Just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away
I'll be coming for you anyway
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day
I'll be gone (take on me, take on me)
In a day (take me on, take on me)
(Take on me, take on me)
(Take me on, take on me)
(Take on me)
You are the one
You are the one
Who has done me in
Guess you knew from the start
I call again, but there's no one in
Don't know where
With whom you've been
But I do love you
Any way you want me to
And you are the one
Now the state I'm in!
Catching you was so hard
I fought for you
Did you let me win?
You don't even care
You don't care where I've been
But I do love you
Any way you want me to
You are the one
I've done all I can do
All the letters I've sent through
Put my life in the palms of your hand
Maybe now you can see
That it's got to be me
If you leave me
I'll understand, yeah
If you leave me
I'll understand
Oh, you are the one
Who has done me in
Guess you knew from the start
I call your friends
But there's no one in
Catching you is so hard
You are the one
You are the one
You are the one
You, you are the one
You are the one
Cry wolf
Night I left the city,
I dreamt of a wolf
He came from where the winds are cold
And truth is seen through keyholes
Strange longings never sleep
Now he's come where no hearts beat
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry
You can start, but you cannot stop
You give in, but you can't give up
You can tell all your desperate jokes
To a world that puts
Love on hold
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now
The sunken-in eyes
And the pain in his cries
A shape in the dark
Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now
The blood that moves the body
It's the way we feel
Tonight
As if it's all unreal
All right
My love
Won't you come back to
Our love
You know I'll react to
The blood that moves my body
Now covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
There's nowhere to go
Tonight
Lend some warmth to our cold
And lonely lives
Red stains
On Eyes of a blue dog
My pains
Fade as the interiors fog
The blood that moves my body
Now colours the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
Not long ago
It hurt us so
A tremble through our lives
The love and care
The way we were
Now lost it's way at nights
It's the way we feel
Tonight
The blood that moves the body
Not long ago
It hurt us so
A tremble through our lives
The love and care
The way we were
Now lost it's way at nights
It's the way we feel
Tonight
Lend some warmth to
Our cold and lonely lives
My love
Won't you come back to
Our love
You know I'll react to
The blood that moved our bodies
Now covers the ground
Covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
Covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
Covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
Covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
Touchy
Hey!
Come on, come on
Donna found us in her slow and dreamy way
I can't hear a word the waiter says
She's looking older now, the colour of her hair
She walks into the room too pleased to find me there
Me, I'm touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, and you know what to do
Me, I'm touchy, touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, and you know what to do
Both of us together in a room by ourselves
I sneeze to look around but there's no escape
What can I do? What can I say?
She's waiting for this moment to explain itself
Me, I'm touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, and you know what to do
Me, I'm touchy, touchy, touchy you
Touching love is the best I can do
Hey, this time you've gone too far
You don't know how touchy we are
Hey, this time you've gone too far
Come on, come on
You don't know how touchy we are
Come on, come on, don't you know I'm touchy
Donna found me in her slow and dreamy way
Now she reads me what the paper says
The way she laughs at what I do
I'm waiting for this moment to explain itself through
Me, I'm touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, and you know what to do
Me, I'm touchy, touchy, touchy you
Touching love is the best I can do
Hey, this time you've gone too far
You don't know how touchy we are
Hey, this time you've gone too far
Come on, come on, don't you know I'm touchy
You don't know how touchy we are
Hey, this time you've gone too far
You don't know how touchy we are
Hey, this time you've gone too far
Come on, come on, don't you know I'm touchy
You don't know how touchy we are
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Me, I'm touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, and you know what to do
Me, I'm touchy, touchy, touchy you
Me, I'm touchy, touching love is the best I can do
Touchy
You
Touchy
The best I can do
Touchy
You
Touchy
Stay on these roads
The cold has a voice
It talks to me
Stillborn by choice
And it has no need to hold
Old man feels the cold
Oh baby don't
Cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on my love
We shall meet, I know
I know
Where joy should reign
These skies restrain
Shadows your love
The voice trails off again
Old man feels the cold
Oh baby don't
Cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on my love
You feel so weak, be strong
Stay on, stay on
We shall meet, I know
I know
I know, my love, I know
Winter's gone, I'm on my own
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on my love
We will meet, I know
So stay on, I know
Stay my love, stay on
We will meet, I know, I know
Love I know
Angel in the snow
Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go:
And always will I be there
Shake worries from your hair
Hmm, yeah...
I'll be there
Always:
Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow
Wherever you may go:
You're my angel in the snow
You're my angel in the snow
Call your name
We got married on a cold mid-winter's morning
We said our lines
Then kissed
And it was over
Those pronouncements had such weight
I guess they made us hesitate
Hesitate
When she moved her hips
And swayed in my direction
I thought we could make it yet
And beat the isolation
But in that gentle dark
Man, we tore ourselves apart
Through fire and rain
Through wilderness and pain
Through the losses, through the gains
On love's roller coaster train
I call your name
Oh God, we used to laugh
Is the fire dying, babe
It hurts to ask
Let me hold you for awhile
Living a boy's adventure tale
I've fixed my dwelling for the night
Lights in pairs come passing by
Where I hide
I need some time now on my own
Leave my loneliness alone
To lick my wounds
Night has found me just in time
To help me close my eyes
One more time
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
For so many days
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
Can't escape, if I wanted to
Living a boy's adventure tale
I may be dreaming but I feel awake
I've been lost in so many places
Seeked love in so many faces
A change of weather,
The rain pours down
My head in hands,
Pressed to the ground
And where am I supposed to go now
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale (aah)
Living a boy's adventure tale
A voice I hear
Living a boy's adventure tale
Singing a lullaby for me
Living a boy's adventure tale
Because of you
Living a boy's adventure
Oh you know it's true
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways (aah)
For so many days
I love you. I love you
So many ways
Train of thought
He likes to have the morning paper crossword solved
Words go up, words come down
Forwards, backwards, twisted round
He grabs a pile of letters from a small suitcase
Disappears into an office
It's another working day
And his thoughts are full of strangers
Corridors of naked lights
And his mind once full of reason
Now there's more than meets the eye
Oh, a stranger's face he carries with him
He likes a bit of reading on the subway home
A distant radio whistling tunes that nobody knows
At home a house awaits him, he unlocks the door
Thinking once there was a sea here
But there never was a door
And his thoughts are full of strangers
And his eyes to numb to see
And nothing that he knows of
And nowhere where he's been
Was ever quite like this
Yeah
And his thoughts are full of strangers
Corridors of naked lights
And his mind once full of reason
Now there's more than meets the eye
Oh, a stranger's face he carries with him
And at heart
He's full of strangers
Dodging on his train of thought
Train of thought
Love is reason
My breath was coming fast
And as I make a start
You turn to go, oh, oh
I'll do what you want me to
I'll cry at the thought of the loss of a heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason enough
My morals are changing fast
I told you it wouldn't last
You turn and go, oh, oh
I'll be what you want me to be
I'd die at the thought of the loss of your heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason enough
Oh, love is reason enough
I'll die at the thought of the loss of your heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love, love is reason
Is reason enough
Is reason enough, love is reason enough
Is reason enough
The sun always shaines on TV
Touch me
How can it be
Believe me
The sun always shines on T.V
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
To me...
I Reached inside myself
And found nothing there
To ease the pressure off
My ever worried mind
All my powers waste away
I fear the crazed and lonely looks
The mirror's sending me
These Days
Touch me
How can it be
Believe me
The sun always shines on T.V
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
Please don't ask me to defend
The shamefull lowlands
Of the way I'm drifting
Gloomily through time
(Touch me)
I reached inside myself today
(Give all your love)
Thinking there's got to be some way
To keep my troubles distant
Hold me
Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
You'll never get over me
You say you want some fun
You're not the only one
Not the only one
And you say you want to run
You're not the only one
Not the only one
You will never get over me
I'll never got under you
Whenever our voices speak
It's never our minds that meet
You say you want some
You're not the only one
Not the only one
And you, you say you've come undone
You're not the only one
Not the only one
You will never get over me
I'll never got under you
Whenever our voices speak
It's never our minds that meet
You'll never get over me
Move to Memphis
Walked around no one around
You were the one who taught me better
This old town brings me down
You were the one who told me you've got to
Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Move to Memphis and follow you
Trace that highway down to your doorway
Move tho Memphis and be with you
On the day you walked away
I was the one who said
You'd better stick around stay in town
You were the one who told me you've got to
Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Chase the shadow that follows you
Trace that highway down to your doorway
Move to Memphis and be with you
That's what I'll do
Move to Memphis to be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive, I dream myself alive
You can't deny
There's something dark against the light
All I can say
It doesn't have to be this way
We'll be chasin' our tails madly
See days pass like wildfire
Right from the start
I knew this world would break my
Heart
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Break my heart
And dream myself alive
What can it mean?
I'm drawing pictures of the sea
Right from the start
I knew this girl would break my heart
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
I dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
Dream myself alive
Scoundrel days
Was that somebody screaming
It wasn't me for sure
I lift my head up from uneasy
Pillows
Put my feet on the floor
Cut my wrist on a bad thought
And head for the door
Outside on the pavement
The dark makes no noise
I can feel the sweat on my lips
Leaking into my mouth
I'm heading out for the steep hills
They're leaving me no choice
And see, as our lives are in the making
We believe through the lies and the hating
That love goes free
For want of an option
I run the wind 'round
I dream pictures of houses burning
Never knowing nothing else to do
With death comes the morning
Unannounced and new
Was it too much to ask for
To pull a little weight,
They forgive anything but greatness
These are scoundrel days
And I'm close to calling out their names
As pride hits my face
See, as our lives are in the making
We believe through their lies and the hating
That love goes free through
Scoundrel days
I reach the edge of town
I've got blood in my hair
Their hands touch my body
From everywhere
But I know that I've made it
As I run into the air
And see, as our lives are in the making
We believe through the lies and the hating
That love goes free
Through scoundrel days
And you tell me
Please don't hurt me, I have told you
All my love is all I've got
And tomorrow is the day
When I for your sake, I'm coming back
And you tell me that I don't love you
I'm trying hard to make you jealous
Trying harder to make you stay
Days are longer, night are crazy
It's so strange when you're away
And you tell me that I don't love you
Because I love you, I will show you
All the faces my love can have
So please
Let me come to you and stay this time
And you tell me that I don't love you
Oh, you know that it's just not true
Nonstop July
Walking by strangers
Stranger than me
We talk of the future
Between you and me
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
It's hard to conceive it
All comes to an end
A joke when it's funny, well...
I laugh and pretend
We're fools to believe it
We're fools to try
Cosy Prisons
Take a moment if you dare
Catch yourself a breath of air
There's another life out there
And you should try it
Dead ends hide on every street
Look before you place your feet
Cracks and fissures keep the beat
And you're inside it
Every thought you never dared to think
Every mood you always knew would sink
Every line you spoke out loud in a jest
All the time you took to be your best
Soon forgotten
The sun must never touch your skin
It could expose the dark within
You're paranoid about the paranoia
And panic hits without a sign
You worry about it all the time
Every perfect moment is a hidden warning
Cause everything makes your pretty head spin
And nagging thoughts are starting to sink in
With everything this way it's better to forget
Than end up in a place with something to regret
Your transatlantic shopping spree
Your health forever guarantees
Organic -bio-life's a breeze in cosy prisons
But hiding out in a salad bar
Isn't gonna get you far
and bottled wine is vinegar tomorrow
Everything around here makes your pretty head spin
Its piling up high and you're back where you begin
Moments you have tried so hard to forget
Are promising to 've been the best one's yet
Every time you shut your eyes it appears
Every time you trace your steps back here
None of your convictions have the same old ring
No doubt you found a place for everything
In cosy prisons
So if you're careful
You won't get hurt
But if your careful all the time
Then what's it worth?
Forever not yours
Hold me tight
This is a lonely night
And I've hurt you baby
Because you are my light
Make me strong
Just like you make me weak
When your hands reach out for me
Even in your sleep
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours
Memories they keep coming through
The good ones hurt more
Than the bad ones do
The days were high
And the nights were deep
And I miss you, baby
I miss you, baby
I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours
I'll soon be gone now
It won't be long now
Forever not
Forever not yours (I'll soon be gone now)
Forever not yours
It won't be long now (it won't be long now)
Forever not yours (forever not yours)
I'll soon be gone now (soon be gone now)
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours (forever not yours)
(I'll soon be gone now, soon be gone now)
(Forever not yours) forever not yours
(It won't be long now)
Mother nature goes to heaven
Wrong
You never got it wrong
You always got it right
But now some time has passed
You're ever so slightly off
Thing you could do asleep
In a not too distant past
Are trying your patience
Harder now
And though
Everything moves along
You hope the rumour's wrong
That Mother Nature
Goes to heaven
Right
You never got it wrong
It always got away
When you had it nailed
It was ever so slightly off
Sending you somewhere else
Than where you had to be
Making it that much
Harder now
And though
You're struggling to get on track
It pales somewhat to the fact
That Mother Nature goes to heaven
And there will be no sadder day
When all of my birds have flown away
I trying your patience
Harder now
And though
Everything moves along
You hope the rumour's wrong
That Mother Nature
Goes to heaven
Mhh, yeah
Mother Nature¨
Goes to
Heaven
We're looking for the whales
One left low, left two who left high
They seem so hard to find
Three came twice, took once the time to search
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for the whales
Restlessness is in our genes
Time won't wear it off
Born to this world with our eyes wide open
Girl, we're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for the whales
Oh girl, we're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for the whales
I found angels
Beached outside your doors
Don't you set those lonely eyes on me
Oh girl, we're looking for a little bewildered girl
We're looking for a little bewildered
We're looking for the whales
(Girl)
We're looking for the whales
(Oh yeah, oh whales)
Looking for the whales
We're looking for a little bewildered
(Looking for the whales)
We're looking for a little bewildered
(Looking for the whales)
