1.CRY WOLF
'Night left the city,
I dreamt of a wolf....'
He came from where the winds are cold
And truth is seen through keyholes
Now he's come where no heart beats
*Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now'
You can start, but you cannot stop
You give in, but you can't give up
Your can tell all your deperate jokes
To a world taht puts your love on hold
(repeat**2)
....The sunken-in eyes
And the pain in his cries
A shape in the the dark....
(repeat*&fade out)
2.Crying In The Rain
I'll Never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and iI 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 never know that I still love you so
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
*Since we won't together
I'll wait 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 till then, darling
You never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain*
Oh.....
Woo.......
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Mu............
3.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
4.East of the Sun
Half of a letter
Tells half a story
The way I see it
It's half the worry
Where I came from
I forgot too soon...
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Money talks
And hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it
Enough to miss it
Where I'm going
I'll get there soon
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up
But something's breaking
Here inside me
Deep and hollow
A sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain
Before the wound
East of the sun
And west of the moon
5.I 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.
6.Slender Frame
Your coat is hanging loosely
On your slender frame
There's many roads to lave by
But few come back again
I don't believe it
I believe it
Take a look around and see
What's stopping you is stopping me
One moonless night and we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night
Pack up your things and go
Run down the road, don't take it slow
Pack up your things today and run away
Yeah, run away
You say it's useless crying
Never got you far
You claim there's none as lonely
Lonely as you are
I don't believe it
I believe it
Take a look around and see
What's breaking you is breaking me
One moonless night we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night
7.Stay On These Roads
Cold irons of fires
That talks to me
Still born by choice
Now he has a need to hold
Oh,Ah,fields of coal
Oh,baby,don't,not go
Stay on these roads
We will meet,I know
Stay on my love
We will meet,I know,I know
Rejoice with rain
These skies restrain shadow your love
The voice trails on again
Voice trails off again
Oh,my,fields are cold
Oh,baby,don't don't
Stay on these roads
We will meet,I know
Stay on my love
Feels to me,be strong
Stay on,stay on
We will meet,I know,I know
I love,I love...
Fields of coal
Winter's come...
Stay on these roads
We will meet,I know
Stay on my love
We will meet,I know
Stay on I love
Stay my love Stay on
We will meet I know I know...
8.Sycamore Leaves
Can't stop thinking 'bout it
It fills me with unease
Out there by the roadside something's buried
Under sycamore leaves
Wet grounds, late September
The foliage of the trees
I came upon this feeling that someone's lying
Covered by sycamore leaves
And I could never face it
And take a look and see
And I could never break out
And shake it's grip on me
9.TAKE ON ME
Talking away, I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it any way
Today's another day to find
You shine away
I'll be coming for your love O.K.
CHORUS
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
in a day or two
So, needless to say at odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is O.K.
Say after me
It's much better to be safe than worry
CHORUS
O, things that you say
Yeah is it life or just a play
My worries away
You're all the things I've got to remember
You shine away
I'll be coming for you anyway
CHORUS
10.Waiting for Her
Waiting for her
That's all I ever do
Waiting for her
So why didn't I
Take the measures justified
Our love has always been the same
She comes, then goes away again
Oh yeah
She used to say
We didn't have the breaks we should've had
Coming our way
But why didn't I take that time and put it right
Our love has always been the same
She leaves me standing out in the rain
Oh yeah
Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of
Oh yeah
I'm telling you
And when she's sleeping by my side
Eyes closed, all knowledge trapped inside
Oh yeah
Why didn't I
Take the measures justified
Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of
Oh yeah
I'm telling you
