1.Home and Dry
So my baby's on the road
doing business, selling loads
charming everyone there
with the sweetest smile
Oh tonight
I miss you
Oh tonight
I wish you
could be here with me
but I won't see you
'til you've made it back again
Home and dry
Home and dry
There's a plane at JFK
to fly you back from far away
all those dark and frantic
transatlantic miles
Oh tonight
I miss you
Oh tonight
I wish you
could be here with me
but I won't see you
'til you've made it back again
Home and dry
Home and dry
Far away
through night and day
you fly long haul tonight
Come to me
you know I'll be here
when you call tonight
Oh tonight
I miss you
Oh tonight
I wish you
could be here with me
but I won't see you
'til you've made it back again
Home and dry
Home and dry
2.I Get Along
Feeling like I'm stuck in a hole
body and soul
while you're out of control
Now I know why you had to go
well I think we both know
why it had to be so
I've been trying not to cry
when I'm in the public eye
Stuck here with the shame
and taking
my share of the blame
while making
sudden plans that don't include you
I get along, get along
without you very well
I get along very well
Now I know you'd much rather be
with rock royalty
instead of someone like me
The big boys are back and we need them, you said
Think it was something you'd read
and it stuck in your head
Even though I don't suppose
that's as far as it goes
You've go quite an appetite
for being wronged and in the right
Well from now on it won't affect me
I get along, get along
without you very well
I get along very well
The morning after the night before
I'd been alerted
to your lies
I phoned you up
Your calls were all diverted
Took a long time to track you down
even then you were defiant
It's not what you think it is, you said
and proceeded to deny it
So I lost my patience at last
and it happened so fast
you belong in the past
I've been trying not to cry
when I'm in the public eye
Stuck here with the shame
and taking
my share of the blame
while making
sudden plans that don't include you
I get along, get along
without you very well
I get along very well
3.Birthday Boy
Birthday boy
can't explain
Christmas Eve
He's born again
On the line
a broken train
going nowhere
Endless rain
Birthday Boy
so afraid
plays the machines
in the arcade
Oh baby do you remember
he's been through all this before？
Spent the summer
getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame
for the city
calculating
from pain comes pity
Christmas Eve
a time of joy
if you believe
in Birthday Boy
This time around
it's all a mistake
Is he deluded
or just a fake？
Oh baby do you remember
he's been through all this before？
Spent the summer
getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame
for the city
calculating
from pain comes pity
If you knew his name
would you feel the same？
If you knew his name？
Birthday boy
stands apart
as the drama's
about to start
A quick betrayal
A speedy trial
As before
complete denial
Oh baby do you remember
he's been through all this before？
Spent the summer
getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame
for the city
calculating
from pain comes pity
If you knew his name
would you feel the same？
4.London
We came from the far North
summered in Crimea
deserted the armed forces
had to disappear
made it to the free West
on a chartered flight
so we could see what
we trained to fight
We were in London
'Let's do it - let's break the law!'
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
Tell it like it is
Looking for hard work
or credit card fraud
What do you expect from us？
We come from abroad
to get ourselves a new job
on a building-site
They work you so hard
but we trained to fight
We were in London
'Let's do it - let's break the law!'
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
'Let's do it - let's break the law!'
We were in London
Tell it like it is
My father fought in Afghanistan
His widow's pension ain't worth a damn
My mother works and goes home to cry
I want to live before I die
We were in London
'Let's do it - let's break the law!'
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
Tell it like it is
5.E-Mail
Communication's never been
as easy as today
and it would make me happy
when you've gone so far away
if you'd send me an e-mail
that says 'I love you'
Send me an e-mail
that says 'I love you'
Now time and distance
melt away
No digital delay
And some things
can be written down
that we're too shy to say
Send me an e-mail
that says 'I love you'
Send me an e-mail
that says 'I love you'
There may be other
temptations in your life
Don't want to add more
complications to your life
but I'm sending this e-mail
to say 'I love you'
Now there's a ghost
within this house
You're haunting me tonight
I'm looking at some photographs
and thinking that I might
jump on a plane
and surprise you where
you are
but do you want me there？
I'm so insecure
but one thing would make me sure
if you'd
send me an e-mail
that says 'I love you'
Send me an e-mail
that says 'I love You'
6.The Samurai in Autumn
It's not as easy as it was
or as difficult as it could be
for the Samurai in autumn
It's not as easy as it was
or as difficult as it could be
for the Samurai in autumn
7.Love is a Catastrophe
Love is a catastrophe
Look what it's done to me
Brought me down here so low
stranded, nowhere to go
No concentration
just rerunning conversation
Trying to understand
how I fell into this quicksand
What happens next？
With life I'm unimpressed
Pain like a cutter's knife
Never been lonelier in my life
Who issued the instruction
for this mad act of destruction？
An end to equilibrium
Fate laughs：
Look what we've done to him!
High wind through the trees
Falling November leaves
A weak sun hanging low
Summer seems so long ago
All my former dreams
tender romantic schemes
revealed as so naive
To think I could believe
In love as the kindest law
not as a declaration of war
on my life and sanity
Now I know at last for me
love is a catastrophe
8.Here
We all have a dream
of a place we belong
The fire is burning
and the radio's on
Somebody smiles
and it means 'I love you'
but sometimes we don't notice
when the dream has come true
You've got a home here
Call it what you want
You've got a home here
to return to when you can't
face the world and you need
some support to succeed
You've got a home
We all make a mess
of our lives from time to time
It's part of the process
that you stumble as you climb
And if you ever feel
the pain is far too big a deal
I say with pride
I'll be on your side
You've got a home here
Call it what you want
You've got a home here
You're gonna want it when you can't
face the world and you need
some support to succeed
You've got a home
9.The Night I Fell in Love
I was backstage
couldn't believe my luck was in
I saw him approach
wearing a most approachable grin
When he said hello
I was surprised he spoke so politely
I said I'd liked his show
Well he just smiled
I guess it happens nightly
and so
I fell in love
We went to his room
he had a video camera
I was so nervous
I had to try hard not to stammer
He said
'I'm glad you liked the show
that crowd was dope out there tonight, alright
You wanna see some more？
Well be my guest
You can have a private performance'
I'd fallen in love
I didn't ask why
though he seemed like such a regular guy
he said we could be
secret lovers
just him and me
Then he joked
'Hey, man!
Your name isn't Stan, is it？
We should be together!'
And he was passionate
I guess I would rate
him a nine out of ten
by then
I'd fallen in love
When I asked
why have I heard so much
about him being charged
with homophobia and stuff
he just shrugged
Next morning we woke
he couldn't have been a nicer bloke
Over breakfast made jokes
about Dre and his homies and folks
Neither of us asked if or when
we would see each other again
but I thought that was cool
'cause I was already late for school
by then
I'd fallen in love
10.You Choose
He's gone
You've lost
Stay behind
and count the cost
You try
You lose
You don't fall in love by chance
You choose
It's a decision
made over time
Should you take a risk
and start to climb
the steepest hill
only to find
halfway there
you've been left behind？
Choosing to love
is risking a lot
and trying to change
and to give all you've got
But don't pretend
it comes out of the blue
You take a chance
and see it through
and if it's refused
what can you do？
Continue hopefully？
Start anew？
Lick your wounds
Buy your booze
You won't get drunk by accident
You'll choose
Don't blame him
for refusing your bid
He didn't decide to love
You did
Learn the lesson
Take the blows
You didn't fall in love by chance
You chose
Play the sad songs
Sing the blues
You don't fall in love by chance
You choose
