 Central Reservation » Lyrics [+ Shtoj +] |
1. _ Stolen car
You walked into my house last night.
I couldn't help but notice
A light that was long gone still burning strong.
You were sitting,
Your fingers like fuses.
Your eyes were cinnamon.
You said you stand for every known abuse
That was ever threatened to anyone but you.
And why should I know better by now
When I'm old enough not to?
While every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I can't decide over right or wrong.
I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong
Some may sing the wrong words to the wrong melodies
It's little things like this that matter to me.
Others feel that you should stand
For every known abuse to hand
And all the things that they could never see.
You said you stood
For every known abuse that was ever promised to anyone like you.
Don't you wish you knew better by now
When you're old enough not to?
When every line speaks the language of love,
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I can't decide over right or wrong.
You left the feeling that I just do not belong.
Do not belong X8
One drink too many
And a joke gone too far
I see a face drive like a stolen car.
Gets harder to hide
When you're hitching a ride
Harder to hide what you really saw.
Oh, yeah, you stand
For every known abuse that I've ever seen my way through.
Don't I wish I knew better by now?
Well I think I'm starting to.
When every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I've lost the line between right or wrong.
I just want to find the place where I belong.
Why should you know better by now,
When you're old enough not to?
I wish I knew better by now,
When I'm old enough not to.

2. _ Couldn't cause me harm
Ooh, yeah, you know,
You couldn't cause me any harm.
Although, at times, I may get startled,
I'm not alarmed.
I can see your eyes
I know when they're telling me a truth
I can feel the heart,
Especially when it's on the roof
Of my mouth.
There's no right or wrong.
This isn't a test.
And I won't lose my experience.
I won't try
To put it aside.
But it's alright.
You know that it's alright.
's alright.
It's gonna be alright.
's gonna be alright.
And if I told you,
Would you never know to guess?
Sure, what's the point
When little often means so much less.
I can see for miles.
I know when you're telling me a truth
I can feel my heart,
Esepcially now. It's on the roof
Of my mouth
There's no right or wrong.
This isn't a gesture
And I don't use my experience.
I don't try
To let it go by
But it's alright.
You know that it's alright.
It's alright.
It's gonna be alright.
Ba da ba ba ba da da da....

3. _ Central reservation ( The then again version )
Putting down a central reservation.
Last night's red dress
And I can still smell you on my fingers
And taste you on my breath.
Stepping through brilliant shades
Of the color you bring
This time, this time, this time
Is fine just as it is.
Today is whatever I want it to mean.
If this is where memories are made, well,
Dreams do come true.
Everything I ever took for granted
I want to see it through.
I step through every shade
Any the color you bring.
This time, this time, this time
Is fine just as it is.
Today is whatever I want it to mean.
It's like
It's like living in the middle of the ocean
With no future, no past.
And everything that's good right now,
Well, I don't wish for it to last.
I'll step through brilliant shades,
Every color you bring.
This time, this time, this time
Is fine just as it is.
And today is whatever I want it to mean.

4. _ Central reservation
Running down a central reservation.
Last night's red dress
And I can still smell you on my fingers
And taste you on my breath.
Stepping through brilliant shades
Of the color you bring
But this time, this time, this time
Is whatever I want it to mean.
If this is where memories are made,
I'm gonna like what I see.
And everything I ever took for granted,
I'm gonna let it be.
I step through every shade
Of the color you bring
But this time, this time, this time
Is whatever I want it to mean.
And everything and nothing is
As sacred as we want it to be
When it's real. Make it real.,
Compared to what?
Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
It's like living in the middle of the ocean
With no future, no past,
And everything that's good about now
Might just glide right past.
I'm stepping through brilliant shades
Of the color you bring.
But this time, ths time, this time
Is fine just as it is.
And everything is sacred here,
And nothing is as sacred as I want it to be,
When it's real.
Compared to what?
Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah.....
Ba da ba, ba da ba, ba da ba ba ba da ba, yeah yeah.

5. _ Sweetest decline
She weaves secrets in her hair
The whispers are not hers to share.
She's deep as a well.
She's deep as a well.
Another day wastes away,
And my heart sinks with the sun.
A new day's dawning,
And a new day has not yet begun.
So, anyway,
There I was,
Just sitting on your porch
Drinking in the sweetest decline.
The sweetest decline.
Sober mind
What's the use in regrets
They're just things we haven't done yet.
What are regrets?
They're just lessons we haven't learned yet.
Another day draws away,
And my heart sinks with the sun.
It's like catching snow on my tongue.
It's like catching snow on my tongue.
So, anyway,
There I was,
Just sitting on your porch
Drink in the sweetest decline.
The sweetest decline.
Sober mind
What are regrets?
What are regrets?
They're just lessons we haven't learned yet.
It's like catching snow on your tongue.
You can't pin this butterfly down.
Can't pin this butterfly down.

6. _ Stars all seem to weep
Stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger
And food and love was all was left to hunger.
'Cause when I stray from my truth as I grow older
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.
I think about you on the moonlit night
And the stars all seem to weep.
When there's so much love to lose
There's never any time for sleep.
Look at me doing all these things without you.
We always laughed and you were untrue.
Where was it we tried hard not to go to?
I think that's how I finally came through.
All the things we took for granted
The words still live on in my head
All the times I took for granted
All the words I never said.
I think about you in the moonlit night,
And the stars all seem to weep.
When there's so much love to give,
There's never any time for sleep, yeah.
So I stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger
And human life was all but left to hunger,
'Cause when I stray from the truth as I grow older
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.
Living without you
Living without you.
Living without you, oh.

7. _ Love like laughter
Some of the worst wrongs
Get righted on three chords,
Like a promise,
Or a kiss goodbye.
When the sneer on your lips
Is the livest thing,
Just alive enough to die.
Open my heart,
In my heart there's something telling me
To open my heart.
Open my heart
Yeah, I've been blind,
And all that's been lost
Is a short loop running round my mind.
Love is like laughter
See it happen by chance,
Like a promise,
Be a kiss goodbye
When the smile on your lips
Is the livest thing
More alive than any sky I've seen.
I open my heart
In my heart is there's something telling me
To open my heart.
I open my heart,
See I've been blind,
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind.
I open my heart
In my heart there's something telling me
To open my heart.
I open my heart,
See I've been blind,
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind.
It's just running round my mind,
Running all the time.
Running all the time
It's a short loop
A short loop
Running round my mind

8. _ Pass in time
Beth Orton :
So much stays unknown till the time has come.
Did you imagine you could ever be so strong,
Then watch your fear just turn into relief?
Your sea of doubt become your own belief?
Though tears don't come to cry some grief away,
The tears will help to keep your need at bay.
So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
A mother told me just before she died -(mmmm)
My mother told me just before she died, (mmmm)
'Oh darling, darling, don't you be like me.
You will fall in love with the very first man you meet.'
But mama, mama, some will never know;
The love that you have is still holding my soul.
Beth Orton & Terry Callier :
So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a little while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Beth Orton :
You're here just a while...
Terry Callier :
Here just a while....
Beth Orton :
So much stays unknown till the time you are strong.
Did you imagine you could ever feel so strong,
And all your pain just turns into relief? (mmmm)
All your doubt becomes your own belief? (mmmm)
Though tears don't come to cry some grief away,
The years will help to keep your need at bay.
Beth Orton & Terry Callier :
So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.

You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Beth Orton :
You're here just a while....

Here just a while....
Beth Orton :
You're here just a while
You might as well smile,
You might as well smile,
'Cause tomorrow, you just don't know.
It will pass. It's gonna pass.
Beth Orton & Terry Callier :
It will pass in time.
It will pass in time.
It will pass.
It will pass in time.
It will pass in time.
It will pass.

9. _ Blood red river
Took a friend I found
Cross some blood red river
Never did find my way home
In time to forgive her.
Why must people always fall for what they can't have?
Why must people always grab what they'd never grasp?
How did we get so far?
How do we move so fast away
From the ...
I'm sure it used to stay.
Is it only a dream away?
Took a raft I found
Cross some blood red river.
Never did find my way home
In time for my dinner
Why must people always fall for what they never have?
Why is it a crime to miss a part of you that's dead?
How did we get so far?
How do we move so fast away
From the ...
I'm sure it used to stay.
Is it only a dream away?
I lost a friend
I found down some blood red river.
Never did find my way home
In time to forget home.
Why must people always want what they can't have?
Why must people always take, but forget to ask?
How did we get so far?
How do we move so fast away
From the ...
The ( ) we used to
Is it only a dream away?

10. _ So much more
It's another cold night,
I wrap this head around my shoulders, tight.
Please excuse me, seems there's someone at my door
I wouldn't leave, but the need is so much more.
So much more.
It's another cold day,
And I'm always walking down the escalator the up way
Please excuse me, I can't seem to get inside.
I only wanted to know if you're alive.
You're alive.
If you're alive
You're alive.
I can't see there's a ( )
There's a feeling up there,
But I don't know what it is
Don't know what it means.
Don't know what it means.
So turn it into light
It always seems the further when the ends in sight.
Please excuse me, I just need to be outside.
Only looking for air to breathe.
Air to breathe.
I feel alive.
(I feel so alive, it's cold tonight.
I don't know how to live)
(don't know how to live)
Air to breathe.

11. _ Feel to believe
You lose it just to find it
And as you walk right by it
You forget how you got there,
And why you never meant to stay.
And I won't watch you waste away.
And I won't fake another day
And if one truth leads you to five
I still don't believe in your reasons why
I just don't believe in why.
You love her.
You need her
To feel is to believe her.
You know it.
You want it.
You just can't believe you've got it.
And I can't watch you waste away
But I won't beg you still to stay.
And if what truth leads you to find
I still don't believe in your reasons why.
I just don't believe in why.
I couldn't watch you walk away
And not forget it.
I couldn't watch you turn to stone
And just regret it a single day.
Not a single day.
If I lose you
Could you find me?
Or would you walk right by me?
The soul and the spirit
Each have got their own limit.
And I can't waste another second
Living in hell like it's some kind of heaven.
And if one truth leads to another
Then isn't there one I can unconver.,
There isn't one I will not discover.
It's the right time.
It's my time.
It's the right time.
It's my time.
It's my turn to discover.
And I won't waste a single second
Living in hell as an idea of heaven
And if one truth leads you to five,
I still don't believe in your reasons why.
And if one truth leads to another,
Isn't there one we can uncover?
If there isn't one that we cannot discover.
So it's our time.
It's our time to discover.

12. _ Devil song
When the devil comes blowing through your door
You'll know there's trouble, and he's coming back for more.
You better keep what is precious hidden under the floor.
Or you better treat it so good it will never want for more.
But looking back, in retrospect,
Did you ever really get what you'd expect?
Trying to rectify,
Got lost a little further.
Welll you've been trying to justify,
Find out how and where it came.
Devil was your angel, but it's not no more.
The devil was your angel, when you weren't sure.
Do I tempt trouble to break through all these doors,
Just to put a face to the voice which always ( )?
To fight for what is precious, to know what's under the floor.
If I could treat it so good, I swear I'd never want for more.
When I found my peace
There was still mistakes
However painfully your wearing every step I take.
Trying to rectify
Got lost a little further.
Well, I've been trying to justify,
Find out how and where it came.
The devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure.
To travel as my angel there's always my whore (?)
Gonna take you back down
And I won't feel no shame
Till my dreams
Are my own again.
Gonna take yu right down, and I'll take the blame
Till my dreams are my own again.
Here I am again.
Devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure.
To travel as my angel there's always my whore (?)
Maybe you're an angel, tried to remember you're an angel.
Remember you're an angel, if you're not sure.
