unknown

Why did you fall for an innocent?
An innocent like me?
Why did you fall for an innocent?
An innocent like me?

I know nothing will ever be
'cos like, we don't give nothing away

(chorus)
Call what you [crib] boy
But it's, it's not what you need
I know it's, it's not what you need
From a girl like me
Oh, and i wish that you could come in boy
And make me smile like rose on wood
It would be nice to take
A fortune from your flesh
And make it good
Make it really good

Why do the sonnets stake my heart?
I'm sworn to kiss and tell
I'm sworn to take the rose
Outta your hands and mould
My lies around you
Not being fickle
Or breaking this song
I made the sweetest thing you ever see

But i want to shake the world
And leave them standing
Not a queue for frivolity

(chorus)

Wasted my time
Like [oil/all] rich sons
Like [oil/all] rich sons should do
Like [oil/all] rich sons
Oh, the hours are all gone
The hours are all gone

There's nothing wrong with a picture palace
A thousand knives have been drawn in
But i'm a dreamer with iron intent
And for pure cosmetics i could not care

(chorus)

Well [lou is] alright hanging out in the wind
He really just wanted to fly
And i'm alright doing the same again
You all understand i was shy
And all the palm-readers have my natural resistance
That was a bonus for you
If i told you i loved you, yeh you know i was lying
I was just trying one over you

And all the paper elephants in the paper in the school
They always used to make me laugh
Now teacher said "you're learning" but i knew i was inside burning
But these weren't tears for the craft
And if you want to pretend you can help me any better
You just got to let me fall
Cos somewhere in a corner i know its alright
I'm going to get over you all

(chorus)
And i'm over you all
Well god knows that's one to the competition
Over you all
Well god knows our lives take strange positions

Well the angriest attitude don't fly so hot
You play by the water and drink such a lot
But i knew the reason to hang down my head
It's better, i think, i just lie on the bed
And sometimes it hurts but the hurting's not good
It just makes you feel like a fool
So somewhere along i can go [doing a throng]
Any say i can do without you

(chorus)

Somewhere inside
A laughter in here has died
Won't you come out to play, i know you played before boy
I know you played before

Well i'm tingling to your talking 'till i'm mud in your hands
You know [i] have no power so the statement's kind of grand
You say "i can save the world, yes i can solve your mind"
Baby don't you tell me [?] blind in my mind's eye

(chorus)

Old pirates yes they rob i
Sold i to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took i
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
All i ever had, is songs of freedom
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all i ever had, redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all i ever had, redemption songs
Redemption songs, redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but oursekves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Yes some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all i ever had, redemption songs
All i ever had, redemption songs
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom

[one, (two), one, two (three), one, two, three]

Just five feet away, yes i was
I'm not lying, i'm just crying out your name
Just five feet away, yes i was
I'm not lying, i'm just crying out your name

I just do not understand you
No i do not understand
No i do not understand you
I just do not understand

Just five feet away i could tell you
That i've been telling the same old lies (lines?)
Just five feet away i could send you
But i can't send you - these are trying times
Trying times - yeah i tell you they are trying times

Just five feet away my hands turn blue
I can't tell if its really you
Just five feet away my hands go numb
Just to tell you how the time has come
The time will ruin me
The time will ruin me
Oh....

Don't take me back
I just hate that
When you tell me lies
I just can't help
To work it through this time
Oh, i believe
In really nothing new
And i be true for you
And you'd be true to me
And we would always know
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling
Now we have not all day
To work ourselves
Into that hate
You know it now
I don't have the mind
To win that back
I lost myself
And i can't take that
Look at my face
And touch my skin
Look at my face
And touch my skin
Can't you see who's changing?
Now don't scare me
Don't hurt me
And don't be 'pseud'
You know you're so cruel
When you look at me
In this tiny way
And there's nothing i can do
And there's nothing i can say
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling is gone
When the feeling

You pace the pool and talk about it
I read my book and think about it
You've walked on water
As i'm turning the page
You say, "what's the intrigue here...
In reading when the sky is clear?"
You are in the sun
And i am always in the shade

(chorus)
It's too late to leave you
You know that i will never leave you
It's too late to know you
You don't like to be known
You would never hold me
I don't like to be held
I will always love you
In spite of myself

I can feel the weather changing
The leaves are tired and turned with anger
They fall around us like a veil
Of golden tears
You have never needed me
And i'm not good at being needed
This season will be leaving us
But we will still be here

(repeat chorus)
Do you miss me when i'm far away?
Do you save me for your rainy days?
Is my picture on the mantle...
Or is it in the fire?
It's odd the way the years fly by
They leave us standing side by side
You have been my mystery
And i've been your desire

(repeat chorus)

Nobody heard him, the dead man
But still he lay moaning
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning

Old man, he always loved looking
And now he's dead
It must have been too cold for him
His heart gave way, they said

Oh no, no it was too cold always
And still the dead one lay moaning
And i was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning

All i know is just one dead phrase
All i know is just one dead phrase
And it's eating my herat wasting my day
You know i could feel unhappy

Yes there are fireflies in the kitchen
And my father yells for more

Well i'm nearly almost honest
And i'm nearly almost [steady?]
And i'm nearly almost happy to be here
And i'm glad i found my way
I never touched you lover
I never touched a friend
I never want to see you till i sort things out again

There are fireflies in the kitchen
And my mother yells not now

I want to say from the top of my head
An honest way to live is an [honesty that's dead]
Oh we are coming from an age
Where no one should understand
And you're coming toward me
And i'm looking for another man
I'm looking for another man
Well iam looking for another man

Yes there are fireflies in the kitchen
And my brother starts to snore

Characters amazingly hard to see my face
Characters amazingly hard to see my face

Oh they are wishing for some two more two
Some [gay ol' violin]
But all i really want to say is that i have never sinned

Yes there are fireflies in the kitchen
And we all go out to [be/see?]

How my heart aches
How my heart aches
How my heart aches

One, two, three, four

In a little country [that sold it's soul]
You know there's no beauty
In being so cold and down
With a little contact and let go
You know there's no beauty
In being told no, no

(chorus)
I can't afford
To break my heart
To being down on you
I can't afford
To act so smart
While looking round for you
I can't afford
To take a warning voice
And keeping that voice well locked
And hoping the world won't [shock] to me
Rock me 'til i can not see ya
Oh, rock me 'til i stop

With a little time to get wise
You know there's no beauty
When there's no surprising you
With a little [leather]
Just to turn you on
You know there's no beauty
When you're hiding from nothing

(chorus)

Is your wonderful showery days
Sunny days roll into one
Is you wonderful, wonderful showery days
Sunny days, roll into one

Making my words as one
Making my words as one to another

In the little [colour] of this little town
You know there's no beauty
In stealing the soul from us
With a little worry that you bearing down
You know there's no beauty
In staying around for us

(chorus)
