Well it's too hard to know what the future holds any day I'll be getting old And it's real close to what the Gypsy told. I won't let you slip away I wonder if other people know About the pit inside where nothing grows Always think it's underground I won't let it slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away Well I'm going in with open eyes Something there is bound to rise Nothing I would recognise I won't let it slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away I won't let you slip away

Here they are, my strategies all laid out Stay inside, never going out again Faces at the window, burn in shame Under the sheets in a week of no days Week of no days burn in shame Week of no days, no face no name Week of no days Human interest stories on the radio Oh no, I don't wanna hear about it Faces at the window, don't wanna know No time for a week of no days Another day in a week of no days Curtains closed, no one even knows my name Faces at the window burn in my brain Days and weeks, months of no days Week of no days burn in shame Week of no days, no face no name Week of no days

Count up to five, come sit by the fire, isn't this a riot? Cause you made it this far and you shine like a star. Count up to ten, let me know just when you wanna do it again It'll help me, you have this power, Lady of the Flowers. Count up to six let's get a kick, tear me into strips and remake me The room's on fire and your touch makes me come alive. Count up to ten, let's do it again, you're not just my friend You make me. You make me Wanna count the hours with the Lady of the Flowers You make me. Lady of the Flowers

What's on the other side of the river What's on the other side for we two love? I wanna sit together by the river I cant imagine what will happen. Wait just a minute there I'm going too slow What's on your mind, dearest friend? Maybe we can find another way down To the ocean ,there's so many paths And the curling, whirling river floats us down stream And the plovers rise from the river, it's like a dream. I'm only saying what I'm feeling, It's for you to have. Make up your mind and surely we will find. Godesses and spirits gather round sometimes I see you there in the trees Nice to look and love but not to hold The ocean's creatures worth more than gold I'm only saying what I'm feeling, I touch the underworld' Can't believe what I'm seeing Another kind of girl Can only tell you what I'm seeing It's for you to have Make up your mind and surely we will find. And the curling, whirling river floats us up stream And the plovers rise from the river, it's like a dream. I'm only saying what I'm feeling, It's for you to have. Make up your mind and surely we will find.

That Way 05:07
Down empty streets, laneways and beats Where people meet, in the backseats Some people play while other pray even if they don't get their way, They want someone to hear what they have to say Even if they don't get their way Some people leave while others stay Even if they don't get their way They just want it that way She takes you home, don't wanna be alone look into her eyes, there's no more lies and for once in a while, you're not feeling low. From empty streets to your heartbeat So very sweet, so complete. To naked sheets Some people play while other pray even if they don't get their way, They want someone to hear what they have to say Even if they don't get their way Some people leave while others stay Even if they don't get their way They just want it that way

Trying hard to stabilise Goin' round in my head They can see it in my eyes Goin' round in my head Trying to compartmentalise Goin' round in my head Maybe it should make me nervous Dissect and dehumanize Goin' round in my head Ridicule and hypnotise Goin' round in my head I Think about it, agonise Goin' round in my head Gotta find what's below the surface I try to find where the river flows Goin' round in my head I try to find where the money goes Goin' round in my head Why I chose the life I chose Goin' round in my head Maybe it should not concern me Don't know what instincts urge us Goin' round in my head Or what instincts preserve us Goin' round in my head I don't wan't a life of service Goin' roiund in my head Or what dreams disturb us

Four o'clock in the morning, and there's no way I'm gonna sleep People in the lane are talking secrets they can't keep. Thinking about your kisses so gentle and discreet, Out of all the kisses I've ever had, nothing tasted quite so sweet And I'm wishing it was you here The days and weeks without you make me ill at ease. Empty pillow, empty bed empty rooms empty head. Think of me in this empty place like I think of you far away in space. Wake me up with your kisses When we lay upon the sheets Out of all the kisses I've ever had Nothing made me feel complete. And I'm wishing it was you here The days and weeks without you make me ill at ease. So I'll lie here the bedroom think about you for a while. Think about a melody Something that can make you smile. People in the lane, still talking Telling secrets they can't keep Waiting for the doors to open On kisses soft and sweet And I'm wishing it was you here The days and weeks without you make me ill at ease .And I'm wishing it was you here The days and weeks without you make me ill at ease.
