1.Nobody's Diary
If I wait for just a second more
I know I'll forget what I came here for
My head was so full of things to say
But as I open my lips all my words slip away
And anyway
I can't believe you want to turn the page
And move your life onto another stage
You can change the chapter you can change the book
But the story remains the same if you'd take a look
For the times we've had I don't want to be
A page in your diary babe
For the good, the bad I don't want to see
A page in your diary babe
For the happy, the sad I don't want to be
Another page in your diary
Perhaps if I held you I could win again
I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then
That look in your eyes I always recognise
Would tell me everything is gonna be fine
You're gonna be mine
for a long time...
For the times we've had I don't want to be
A page in your diary babe
For the good, the bad I don't want to see
A page in your diary babe
For the happy, the sad I don't want to be
Another page in your diary
2.Winter Kills
Green in your love on bright days
You grew sunblind
You thought me unkind
To remind you
How winter kills
Lost in daydreams
You drove too fast and got nowhere
You rode on half fare
When you got too scared
How winter kills
Tear at me searching for weaker seams
Pain in your eyes
Makes me cruel - Makes me spiteful
Tears are delightful
Welcome your nightfall
How winter kills
3.Love Resurrection
What can I do to make light of this dull dull day
What switch can I pull to illuminate the way
Show me one direction
I will not question again
For a warm injection
Is all I need to calm the pain
We all need a love resurrection
Just a little divine intervention
We all need a love resurrection
Just a little divine intervention
What seed must I sow to replenish this barren land
Teach me to harvest I want you to grow in my hand
Lets be optimistic, lets say that we won't toil in vain
If we pull together we'll never fall apart again
We all need a love resurrection
Just a little divine intervention
We all need a love resurrection
Just a little divine intervention
Show me one direction
I will not question again
For a warm injection
Is all I need to calm the pain
4.All Cried Out
You took your time to come back this time
The grass has grown under your feet
In your absence I've changed my mind
And someone else is sitting in your seat
I know that I said there be no-one else
I know that I said I'd be true
But baby - I've burned out cupid's arrow
And here's the short and the narrow
I've nothing left to offer you
All cried out
You took a whole lot of loving for a handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something when you're pushing and a
shoving me around
So don't look surprised there was no disguise
You knew where I stood from the start
So stop - look around you
You're right back where I found you
Take back your cold and empty heart
All cried out
You took a whole lot of loving for a handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something when you're pushing and a
shoving me around
You go your way
I'll go mine
I wont stay around here
Don't you waste my time
5.Invisible
You've got me so confused and there's words I could use
But I'm afraid to say them
I feel I've been had and I'm boiling mad
Still I cant live without you
You don't have the time and you wont spend a dime
Not even to call me
You don't know I exist and I wouldn't be missed
If I had the nerve to quit you
Invisible -I feel like I'm invisible
You treat me like I'm not really there
And you don't really care
I know this romance - it aint going nowhere
You treat me like I'm invisible
When you get the need to flirt
You do the works
You just don't care how much it hurts
I can never reach you on the phone
It rings and rings well I know you're home
It maybe naive but I just wanna believe
I'm the only one
I tell myself lies to give you alibis
Knowing your promises you'll never keep
Like a merry-go-round I'm going up going down
I'm on a dead end street
I feel like I'm invisible
You treat me like I'm not really there
And you don't really care
I know this romance it aint going nowhere
Although I know it's not a lot
Don't wanna loose whatever we've got
I keep hanging on knowing I can't win
Cause it's too hard to start over again
6.That Ole Devil Called Love
It's that ole devil called love again
Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shove again
Putting rain in my eyes, tears in my dreams
And rocks in my heart
It's that sly old son of a gun again
He keeps telling me I'm the lucky one again
But I still have that rain
Still have those tears
And those rocks on my heart
S'pose I didn't stay
Run away wouldn't play
The devil what a potion he would brew
He'd follow me round
Bill me up
Tear me down
Till I'll be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do
Might as well give up that fight again
I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again
When he sings that sorry song
I've just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love
He'd follow me round
Bill me up
Tear me down
Till I'll be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do
Might as well give up that fight again
I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again
When he sings that sorry song
I've just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love
With that ole devil called love
7.Is This Love？
In a fleeting moment of a restless day
Driven to distraction, I was captured by the game
I have often wondered why I ever wanted to
Leave these scattered hours behind m
And speed myself to you
I choose never to forget
I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine
Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds
Is this Love？
Set to work idle hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them they never would be teasing me
As viciously as these
I would not have believed you, had I never seen
Now you and I are intimately pictured in my dreams
I could not forsake you for tumbling away
And If I live in wonderland I'm better off this way
I choose never to forget
I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine
Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds
Is this Love？
Set to work idle hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them they never would be teasing me
As viciously as these
8.Weak In The Presence Of Beauty
It's a long time since I saw you
Well you know how time can fly
It seems like yesterday we were lovers
Now we pass each other by
But if we're left alone tonight
Don't ask me to hold you tight
I go weak
I go weak in the presence of beauty
All my friends keep asking
Why I'm quiet when you're around
But they don't know I think I'm so lucky
To stop myself from falling down
So later if you're on your own
Don't ask me to take you home
I go weak
I go weak in the presence of beauty
Cos if we're left alone tonight
I'll have no choice but to hold you tight
I go weak
I go weak in the presence of beauty
Darling I love you
There's no-one above you
You're my world
I used to be your girl
9.Love Letters
Love letters straight
From your heart
Keep us so near
While apart
I'm not alone in the night
When I can have all the love
That you write
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name
That you sign
And darling then
I read again
Right from the start
Love letters straight
From your heart
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name
That you sign
And darling then
I read again
Right from the start
Love letters straight
From your heart
10.It Won't Be Long
One of these days
I'm waiting on a day
When nobody comes to trample my meadow
Biding my time
There's gonna be a time
Might take a while
But changes are coming
And it wont be long
When everything you said
Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head
And when I wake up
I wont see you on the bathroom floor
In the tangle of clothes we left lying there
It wont be long
One of these nights
With company I find
I wont be inclined to leave before sunrise
When my eyes, my mouth, my hands, my head
Don't tell me that nobody else will do
And it wont be long
When everything you said
Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head
And when I wake up
I wont see you on the bedroom floor
In the tangle of rope we left lying there
It wont be long
It wont be long
'Till it's all gone
And it wont be long
When everything you said
Won't sit around and pile up with the traffic in my head
And when I wake up
I wont see you by the bedroom door
In the wallpaper stained by the cup that I threw at your head
It wont be long
11.Wishing You Were Here
I can't begin to tell you how it feels
It's a clear blue sky
Out here my heart so full it's fit to burst
Just counting the hours
Home, such a long way gone
How to share a day
Here's my only way
Send myself to you
Wishing you were here
I can't begin to tell you where I've been
It's a world behind
And if we are to find our heaven here
We just have to look harder
Now I can see you
I never could before
Now I wand nothing more
When I close my eyes
Wishing you were here
Home such a long way gone
How to share a day
Here's my only way
When I close my eyes
Wishing you were here
I can't begin to tell you how it feels
12.This House
Whose sticky hands are these？
And what is this empty place
I could be happily lost but for your face
Here stands an empty house
That used to be full of life
Now it's home for no one and his wife
It's a hovel and
Who can take your place？
I can't face another day
And who will shelter me？
It's cold in here
Cover me
Under these fingertips a strange body rolls and dips
I close my eyes and you're here again
Later as day descends
I'll shout from my window
To anyone listening. 'I'm loosing'
Who can take your place？
I can't face another day
And who will shelter me？
It's cold in here
Cover me
Oh in a plague of hateful questioning
Tap dancing every syllable from ear to ear
I hear the din of lovers jousting
When I'm hiding with my head to the wall
Who will shelter me？
It's cold in here
13.Falling
She said something like I want to go down where the rivers wild
He said take me then I want to drown deep in your violent eyes
I want to float in through your door
Hang it on the wall hang it all
But I want to be sure of one thing
That I'm getting into something peaceful
I want to fly in on your wing
Way, way up here I don't care for anything
It's all in, and I'm not afraid I don't fear
Falling
She said listen I've been telling you I'm into something cruel
He said give me what got into you I don't care what you do
(If there's a full moon in Taiwan I want half of what you're on)
I want to open up your mind
Leave it all behind you and me we are one of a kind, we may find
That we're getting high on something peaceful
We're gonna take it for a ride
Going nowhere fast but we got nothing to tie ourselves on
And I'm not afraid to go down
Falling
She said something like I'm tired of me
You've got to paint my face
He said fold up like a paper boat, set sail for me again
I want to fly in on your wing
Way, way up here I don't care for anything, it's all in
And I'm not afraid I don't fear
14.Whispering Your Name
When she said that you were through
I thought that there was nothing that I could d
Just because she ran right here
Doesn't mean I interfered
Now I'm wondering of we can feel the same
Cause she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
She once told me how she felt
Didn't just want me to hear it from someone else
There were unknowns she couldn't know
But she hoped you two would grow
And when you didn't she was brought to me in pain
And she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
If it's just a little fling a simple thing
I'll try not to pretend
If it's just for jealousy she's using me
That might be hard to mend
Oh what else can I do
But try to give her more than she got from you
And when she wakes up suddenly and she says you name to me
I'll just hope its force of habit and not need
Cause she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
Oh tell me what is fair
When nothing's wrong
And she just stares
Like she's just waiting
15.Getting Into Something
I'm getting into something
You got me into something good
Like I knew you would
I'm moving into something
You move me into something easy
And it pleases me
Took me by surprise
I never saw the light
Until you turned it on
You got me into something
God knows I'm hitting on life
And I wonder why the sun ain't shining where you are you know
It's alright baby it ain't over
Oh it's only ours to loose
What is gone well we can't use together
So it's alright baby it aint over
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm getting into something
You got me into something wild
And I'm getting high
I'm pulling into something
You pull me into something deeper
Oh it's deeper now
Took me by surprise
I never thought that I would give it out again
You got me into something
God knows I wanna be as close as I'll ever be
Something's getting into me
You know it's alright baby it aint over
Oh it's only ours to loose
What is gone well we can't use together
So it's alright baby it aint over
I didn't mean to hurt you
It was nothing
I was dreaming
But I'd rather live believing
The time you got addictive
I was somewhere getting used
When you were self-abusive
I put out and got abused
With you I don't feel the need to qualify my life
Lets get it on before it's gone
Just meet me at the corner cos it's alright
Baby it aint over
Oh it's only ours to loose
What is gone well we can't use together
So it's alright baby it aint over
I didn't mean to hurt you
It was nothing
I was dreaming
But I'd rather live believing
16.Our Colander Eyes
Some days nothing comes my way, nothing but nothing that is
A heaven of rain clouds crown my day, queen of the wet ghost
town brigade
Then you walk by and from my sky, nothing falls without a
sparkle.
Feeling it kissing my face, so even I don't know I'm crying
Now you're him, out is in, who has time to live in sorrow
Umbrellas are chapel ceilings in chrome
And I dig the nylon blue lining your avenue
I'm not waiting on the sun like a bus that never comes
I'm at home with my colander sky
I'm just hanging with a friend
I don't need this storm to end
I'm in deep with my colander guy
It's you, you and me babe, and our colander eyes
Then you walk in, and for my sins
Nothing hurts for feeling groovy
Everything seems appealing
And even I don't know I'm lying
But we soon forget how to get on wet
We pass the towel and get back to drying
And only the time is flying
But then with only our chances slim
Back to nephrology again
17.Blue
Another northern sky
another motorway parade
another day like this
whatever will be will be
and we will be in Shrewsbury (do I have to go)
Do I have to go
Could I ever stay away
And you never know
Tonight our luck could change
And we'll be flying all the way (going all the way)
A late point and I'll be laughing
And Saturday won't seem so bleak
With you, Blue
Ever a stepping stone
Someone's Mickey Mouse affair
We're so unfashionable
But I'm not with you for your stylish hair
Or the seaside air (if we ever get there)
Tell me we've acquired a striker (Stanley)
And a lucrative sponsorship came through (on a free)
Will you, Blue
Can we not buy someone famous
And pull a crowd we can't contain at all
All true, Blue
Maybe we'll never tread the grass that grows around your feet
And you let us in for weighting tables like we live to feed
And not to eat (but we get a seat)
Three points and the living's easy
And every day's a Saturday
With you, true blue
Saturday
18.Ne Me Quitte Pas
Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit deja
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le coeur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
Ou il ne pleut pas
Je creus'rai la terre
Jusqu' apres ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumiere;
Je f'rai un domaine
Ou l'amour s 'ra roi
Ou l'amour s' ra loi
Ou tu serais reine
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Don't leave me
It 's necessary to forget
Everything you need to forget
Which is already over
Forget the times
Of the misunderstandings
The lost time
To know how
Forget the hours
Which sometimes kill
The reasons why
The heart full of joy
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
I offer you
Pearls of rain
Coming from countries
Where it never rains
I will cross the world
Until after my death
For to cover your body
With gold and bright light
I will give you a kingdom
Where LOVE will be king
Where LOVE will be the law
And where you will be queen
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
19.There Are Worse Things I Could Do
There are worse things I could do
Than go with a boy or two
Even though the neighbourhood
Thinks I'm trashy and no good
I suppose they could be true
But there are worse things I could do
I could flirt with all the guys
Smile at them and bat my eyes
Press against them when we dance
Make them think they stand a chance
Then refuse to see it through
That's a thing I'd never do
I could stay home every night
Wait around for Mister Right
Take cold showers every day
And throw my life away
On a dream that wont come true
I could hurt someone like me
Out spite or jealousy
I don't lie and I don't steal
But I can cry and I can feel
A fact I bet you never knew
But to cry in front of you
That's the worst thing I could do
