DREAM BROTHER

Lyrics There is a child sleeping near his twin
The pictures go wild in a rush of wind
That dark angel he is shuffling in
Watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

The love you lost with her skin so fair
Is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
Her green eyes bloom goodbyes
With her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another
Dream brother
With your tears scattered round the world.

Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't belie the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came

I feel afraid and I call your name
I love your voice and your dance insane
I hear your words and I know your pain
Your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another
Your eyes to the ground
And the world spinning round forever

Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over


ETERNAL LIFE

Lyrics Eternal life is now on my trail
Got my red glitter coffin man, just need one last nail...
While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names

(chorus):
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you?
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel

Racist everyman, what have you done?
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
Crown my fear your king, at the point of a gun
All I wanna do is love everyone

(chorus)

There's no time for hatred, only questions
What is love?
Where is happiness?
What is a life?
Where is peace?
When will I find the strength to bring me relief?

Tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said?
Man it sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
Well I've got a message for you and your twisted hope
You'd better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal, angel



GRACE

Lyrics There's the moon asking to stay
Long enough for the clouds to fly me away
Well it's my time coming,
I'm not afraid to die
My fading voice sings of love,
but she cries to the clicking of time
Oh, time,
Wait in the fire...
And she weeps on my arm
Walking to the bright lights in sorrow
Oh drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow
Oh my love...
And the rain is falling and I believe my time has come
It reminds me of the pain I might leave behind...
Wait in the fire
And I feel them drown my name
So easy to know and forget with this kiss
I'm not afraid to go but it goes so slow


HALLELUJAH

Lyrics I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music do you
Well it goes like this the fourth the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from her lips she drew the hallelujah.

Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not some victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when I moved in you
an the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah

Well maybe there's a god above
but all I've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
 

HYMNE A L'AMOUR

Lyrics if the sun should tumble from the sky
if the sea should suddenly run dry
if you love me, really love me
let it happen darling, i don't care

shall i catch a shooting star
shall i bring it where you are
if you want me to, i will
you can set me any task
i'll do anything you ask
if you'll only love me still

when at last, our life on earth is through
i will spend eternity with you
if you love me, really love me
let it happen darling, i won't care


I WANT SOMEONE BADLY

Lyrics now i want someone badly
got a girl here tonight
wants someone new
someone new
a little cry wants someone badly
i wanna know if this is a bad lease on me

i want to know
i want to know
am i sure that i heard you right
i want to know
if you're leaving just do it tonight

now i want someone badly
to burn in here with me
but listen baby
'cause i cry all over madly
don't do anything do it for/with me

ooh i wanna know
am i sure that i have your love
i wanna know
if you're leaving just make sure it's right

now i want someone badly
could it be true
that someone is you


JE N'EN CONAIS PAS LA FIN

Lyrics i used to know a little square
so long ago, when i was small
all summer long it had a fair
wonderful fair with swings and all
i used to love my little fair
and at the close of every day
i could be found, dancing around
a merry-go that used to play

ah, mon amour
a toi toujours
dans tes grands yeux
rien que nous deux

all summer long my little fair
made everyday like a holiday
night after night it used to play
and people came there from so far away
and everyone sang that little tune
all around town you heard it played
even pepi from napoli
he sang to marie
this serenade

ah, mon amour
a toi toujours
dans tes grands yeux
rien que nous deux
 

JOLLY STREET

Lyrics slow birds
no breeze
iron hearts
rust in streams

long march
small crimes
soft words
whisper
it's time to come home - your eyes

to bring back - your charms
to sit real still
in my arms

clocks tick
trees pound
lions roar
on empty streets

long lists
in black and white
(s h h) red words
that read like the fourth of July
you're home
uhuh, you're home, in my arms


LAST GOODBYE

Lyrics This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it's over
Just hear this and then I'll go:
you gave me more to live for,
more than you'll ever know.

This is our last embrace,
must I dream and always see your face
Why can't we overcome this wall
Baby, maybe it is just because I didn't know you at all.

Kiss me, please, kiss me
But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
You know,
it makes me so angry 'cause I know that in time
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye

Did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
and did you rush to your phone to call?
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying,
"Maybe...you didn't know him at all."

Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
Burning clues into this heart of mine
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory
Of her sighs that, "It's over...it's over..."


LILAC WINE

Lyrics I lost myself on a cool damp night
Gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
Put my heart in its recipe
It makes me see what I want to see…
And be what I want to be
When I think more than I want to think
Do things much I never should done
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Because it brings me back you...
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, like my love
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, like my love
Listen to me…
I cannot see clearly
Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, where's my love?
Lilac wine I feel unsteady,
where's my love?
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy?
Isn't that she, or am I just going crazy, dear?
Lilac wine,
I feel unready for my love


LOVER YOU SHOULD'VE COME OVER

Lyrics Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so (you'll never know)

I'm broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight? Child, you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away
When he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no one...

So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return, oh, or will I ever learn
Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late

Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when I sleep so soft against her...
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
Oh... Lover, you should've come over... 'Cause it's not too late


MOJO PIN

Lyrics Well I'm lying in my bed
The Blanket is warm
This body will never be safe from harm
Still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal
Touch my skin to keep me whole
If only you'd come back to me
If you laid at my side
Wouldn't need no Mojo Pin to keep me satisfied
Don't want to weep for you,
I don't want to know I'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
The memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
Black beauty I love you so
Precious, precious silver and gold and pearls in oyster's flesh
Drop down we two to serve and pray to love
Born again from the rhythm screaming down from heaven
Ageless, ageless and I'm there in your arms
The welts of your scorn, my love, give me more
Send whips of opinion down my back, give me more
Well it's you I've waited my life to see
It's you I've searched so hard for


NEW YEAR' PRAYER

Lyrics oooooo.
fall in light, fall in light.
fall in light, fall in light.
feel no shame for what you are (X 5)

as you now are in your heart
fall in light
feel no shame for what you are
feel no shame for what you are
feel it as a waterfall
fall in light, ooh.
fall in light, fall in light,
fall in light, ooh.
fall in light, fall in light fall in light,
grow in light.

stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing.
stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing.
past the sound within the sound.
past the voice within the voice.
ah. ah. ah.

leave your office, run past your funeral,
leave your home, car , leave your pulpit.
join us in the streets where we
join us in the streets where we don't belong..
don't belong.
you and the stars throwing light.

oooooo (repeat) fall, fall.
oooooo fall in, fall in light.
fall in light, ooo.
fall in light, fall in light
fall in light. grow in light


SO REAL

Lyrics Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress

oh... that was so real

We walked around til the moon got full like a plate
The wind blew an invocation and I fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under

oh... that was so real

I love you, but I'm afraid to love you
I love you, but I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid. . .

oh... that was so real
