My Brave Face

My Brave Face.
I've Been Living In Style
Unaccustomed As I Am To The Luxury Life.
I've Been Hitting The Town And It Didn't Hit Back.
I've Been Doing The Rounds
Unaccustomed As I Am To The Time On My Hands.
Now I Don't Have To Tell Anybody When I'm Gonna Get Back.
Ever Since You Went Away I've Had This Sentimental
Inclination Not To Change A Single Thing.
As I Pull The Sheets Back On The Bed I Want To Go Bury My Head
In Your Pillow.
Chorus:
Now That I'm Alone Again, I Can't Stop Breaking Down Again,
The Simplest Things Set Me Off Again
And Take Me To That Place
Where I Can't Find My Brave Face
Where I Can't Find My Brave Face
My Brave, My Brave, My Brave Face.
I've Been Living A Lie
Unaccustomed As I Am
To The Work Of A Housewife,
I've Been Breaking Up
Dirty Dishes And Throwing Them Away.
Ever Since You Left I Have Been Trying To
Compose A "Baby Will You Please Come Home" Note
Meant For You.
As I Clear Away Another
Untouched Tv Dinner
From The Table I Laid For Two.
Now That I'm Alone Again
I Can't Stop Breaking Down Again,
The Simplest Things Set Me Off Again
And Take Me To That Place
Where I Can't Find My Brave Face,
Where I Can't Find My Brave Face,
My Brave, My Brave, My Brave Face.
My Brave Face.

Flying To My Home
© 1989 MPL Communications (McCartney)
The sun is fading in the west
Out where the cattle roam
I'm like a bird at the end of the day
Flying to my home
I'm flying to my home sweet majesty
I'm flying to my home
The sky is like a painted flag
Above a sea of chrome
I've got a woman living in my life
Living in my home
I'm flying to my home sweet majesty
I'm flying to my home
I haven't been back for so long
I don't know if I'm going to recognise it
They gave the old place a new face
And I'm going to take some time
To size the situation up
I haven't been back for so long
I don't know if I'm going to recognise it
They gave the old place a new face
And I'm going to take some time
To size the situation up
The sun is fading in the west
Out where the cattle roam
I've got a woman living in my life
Living in my home
I'm flying to my home sweet majesty
I'm flying to my home
I'm flying to my home
I'm flying to my home
I'm flying to my home
I'm flying to my home sweet majesty
I'm flying to my home...

This One
© 1989 MPL Communications (McCartney)
Did I Ever Take You In My Arms,
Look You In The Eye, Tell You That I Do,
Did I Ever Open Up My Heart
And Let You Look Inside.
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This One To Black.
Did I Ever Touch You On The Cheek
Say That You Were Mine, Thank You For The Smile,
Did I Ever Knock Upon Your Door
And Try To Get Inside?
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This Swan To Black.
What Opportunities Did We Allow To Flow By
Feeling Like Like The Timing Wasn't Quite Right?
What Kind Of Magic Might Have Worked If We Had Stayed Calm,
Couldn't I Have Given You A Better Life?
Did You Ever Take Me In Your Arms,
Look Me In The Eye, Tell Me That You Do?
Did I Ever Open Up My Heart,
Let You Look Inside?
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This Swan To Black.

You Want Her Too
© 1989 MPL Communications / Plangent Visions Music (McCartney/McManus)
She Makes Me Go So Wrong.
(Yeah You Kept Me Awake You Know You Did)
I've Loved Her Oh So Long.
(So Why Don't You Come Right Out And Say It, Stupid)?
She Makes Me Do Things I Don't Want To Do,
I Don't Know Why I Should Be Telling You
I Know That You Want Her Too.
My Intentions Are Quite Sincere,
(That's Not What You Said The Other Night)
And All You Can Do Is Sneer,
(Go Ahead And Kid Yourself You're Right)
She Makes Me Do Things I Don't Want To Do,
I Don't Know Why I Should Be Telling You
I Know That You Want Her Too.
I've Got A Better Chance Than You Do,
I Know That You Want Her Too.
You're Such A Hopeless Romantic
She Told Me You're So Predictable And Nice,
She Only Did You A Favour Once Or Twice,
Once Or Twice.
She Makes Me Go So Wrong.
(So Why Don't You Lie Back And Enjoy It)?
My Conscience Is Clear And Strong
(Yes She Says I'm Just The Boy For It).
She Makes Me Do Things I Don't Want To Do,
I Don't Know Why I Should Be Telling You
I Know That You Want Her Too,
I Know That You Want Her Too,

Distractions
© 1989 MPL Communications (McCartney)
What Is This Thing In Life That Persuades Me To Spend
Time Away From You?
If You Can Answer This You Can Have The Moon.
This Is The Place To Be, Anyway You Can See
There's A Lovely View.
Why Are There Always So Many Other Things To Do?
Distractions, Like Butterflies Are Buzzing 'Round My Head,
When I'm Alone I Think Of You
And The Life We'd Lead If We Could Only Be Free
From These Distractions.
The Postman's At The Door
While The Telephone Rings On The Kitchen Wall,
Pretend We're Not At Home And They'll Disappear.
I Want To Be With You, Tell Me What I Can Do,
Nothing Is Too Small
Away From All This Jazz We Could Do Anything At All.
Distractions, Like Butterflies Are Buzzing 'Round My Head.
When I'm Alone I Think Of You
And The Things We'd Do If We Could Only Be Through
With These Distractions.
I'll Fond The Peaceful Place Far A Way From The Noise Of A Busy
Day
Where We Can Spend Our Nights Counting Shooting Stars,
Distractions, Like Butterflies Are Buzzing 'Round My Head.
When I'm Alone I Think Of You
And The Things We'd Do If We Could Only Be Through
With These Distractions, Like Butterflies They're
Buzzing 'Round My Head, When I'm Alone I Think Of You
And The Life We'd Lead If We Could Only Be Free
From These Distractions.

We Got Married

Going Fast, Coming Soon
We Made Love In The Afternoon.
Found A Flat, After That
We Got Married.
Working Hard For The Dream,
Scoring Goals For The Other Team,
Times Were Bad, We Were Glad
We Got Married.
Like The Way You Open Up Your Hearts To Each Other,
When You Find A Meeting Of The Minds.
Just As Well Love Was All We Ever Wanted,
It Was All We Ever Had.
Further On In The Game,
Waiting Up Till The Children Came.
Place Your Bets, No Regrets,
We Got Married.
We Got Married.
We Got Married.
Nowadays Every Night Flashes By
At The Speed Of Light,
Living Life, Loving Wife,
We Got Married.
I Love The Things That Happen
When We Start To Discover
Who We Are And What We're Living For,
Just Because Love Was All We Ever Wanted
It Was All We Ever Had.
It's Not Just A Loving Machine,
It Doesn't Work Out
If You Don't Work At It.

Give Me Your Hand I'd Like To Shake It
I Want To Show You I'm Your Friend.
You'll Understand If I Can Make It Clear
Its All That Matters In The End.
Put It There If It Weighs A Ton,
That's What The Father Said To His Younger Son.
I Don't Care If It Weighs A Ton,
As Long As You And I Are Here, Put It There.
Long As You And I Are Here, Put It There.
If There's A Fight I'd Like To Fix It,
I Hate To See Things Go So Wrong.
The Darkest Night And All It's Mixed Emotions,
Is Getting Lighter Sing A Song.
Put It There If It Weighs A Ton,
That's What The Father Said To His Younger Son.
I Don't Care If It Weighs A Ton,
As Long As You And I Are Here, Put It There.
Long As You And I Are Here, Put It There.

Figure Of Eight

(Well) You've Got Me Dancing In A Figure Of Eight,
Don't Know If I'm Coming Or Going, I'm Early Or Late.
Round And Round The Ring I Go,
I Want To Know, I Want To Know,
Why Can't We Travel A Continuous Line?
Make Love Reliable Convenant All The Time.
Up And Down The Hills I Go, I Got To Know, I Got To Know.
Is Is Better To Love Another
Than To Go Go For A Walk In The Dark?
Is It Better To Love Than To Give In To Hate?
Yeah We'd Better Take Good Care Of Each Other
Avoid Slipping Back Off The Straight And Narrow,
It's Better By Far Than Getting Stuck In A Figure Of Eight.
(Well) Figure It Out For Yourself Little Girl,
It Don't Go Nowhere At All,
It's Nothing More Than A Tape Loop In A Big Dance Hall.
You've Got Me Running ...

Don't Be Careless Love

Burn The Midnight Lamp
Down Until The Dawn,
I'll Keep Watch Until I'm Sure Your Coming Home.
Shadows Play And Flicker On The Bedroom Wall
They Turn Into A Bad Dream Overnight,
Something Could Be Terribly Wrong.
Don't Be Careless Love,
Don't Be Careless Love,
Don't Be, Don't Be Careless.
In My Dream You're Running Nowhere
Every Step You've Taken Turns To Glue,
Walking Down A Spiral Staircase
Failing Through, Failing Through,
Don't Be Careless Love,
Be Careless Love.
The Lamp Burns Down And Out
I'm Getting Pretty Tired Of This,
I Feel So Bad Something Might Be Going Amiss,
I Won't Be There So Look Out For Yourself
You're Getting In Deep Whatever You Do,
Don't Let Me Go Back To Sleep,
Don't Be Careless Love,
Don't Be Careless Love,
Don't Be, Don't Be Careless.
Saw Your Face In The Morning Paper,
Saw Your Body Rolled Up In A Rug
Chopped Up Into Two Little Pieces
By Some Thug,
Don't Be Careless Love,
Be Careless Love.
But In The Morning Light
When I Wake Up Again
You're By My Side And That's The Way It's Always Been,
But In The Dark Your Mind Plays Funny Tricks On You,
Your Mind Plays Funny Tricks On You,
Your Mind Plays Funny Tricks On You,
Don't Be Careless Love.

That Day Is Done

I Feel Such Sorrow,
I Feel Such Shame.
I Know I Won't Arrive On Time
Before Whatever Out There Is Gone.
What Can I Do, That Day Is Done.
It's Just A Promise, That I Made
I Said I'd Walk In Her Parade.
Hot Scalding Tears I Thought Would Flow.
Still In My Heart They'll Never Show.
That Day Is Done, That Day Is Done,
You Know Where I've Gone, I Won't Be Coming Back
That Day Is Done.
Well I Recall, The Time And Place
When They Announced Her Precious Face.
I Thought At Once My Heart Would Burst,
Still, Every Time Is Like The First.
There Was Applause When She Stepped Up.
I Wished That I Could Interrupt
I Made No Sign, I Made No Sound
I Know I Must Stay Underground.
That Day Is Done, That Day Is Done.
You Know Where I've Gone,I Won't Be Coming Back,
That Day Is Done.
That's Why She Walks, Or So They Say.
She Always Knew Just What I Needed
Now If She Would, Just Look My Way
One Time Before They Proceed.
She Sprinkles Flowers In The Dirt
That's When A Thrill Becomes A Hurt,
I Know I'll Never See Her Face.
She Walks Away From My Resting Place.
That Day Is Done, That Day Is Done.
You Know Where I've Gone, I Won't Be Coming Back,
That Day Is Done.

Loveliest Thing

To me you are the loveliest thing I've seen all day
You can't take that away
No, you can't take that away
All my life, I wondered why it couldn't be this
way
That was up until today
Oh it had to be this way
Today, wait until the morning comes
Before you slip away
Without permission
Without suspicion
Without permission given
You seem to have a friendlier smile than all the
rest
Well I looked and you were best
Yeah I've looked at all the rest
You can't imagine passionate words that I would
say
If only you would stay
Oh you know you gotta stay
Today, wait until the morning comes
Before you slip away
Without permission
Without suspicion
Without permission given
You used to be and early bird
But how was I to know you would leave without
shedding a tear
I only want to love you
I'll make a wish and suddenly I'm glad that I
have you here
Oh I'm glad I have you here
Today
To me you are the loveliest thing I've seen all
day
And you can't take that away
No, you can't take that away
All my life, I wondered why it couldn't be this
way
That was up until today
Yeah, it had to be this way
Today, wait until the morning comes
Before you slip away, today
Before you slip away

IS IT ALL IN THAT PRETTY LITTLE HEAD OF YOURS?
WHAT GOES ON IN THAT PLACE IN THE DARK?
WELL, I USED TO KNOW A GIRL AND I WOULD HAVE SWORN
THAT HER NAME WAS VERONICA.
WELL, SHE USED TO HAVE A CAREFREE MIND OF HER OWN
AND A DELICATE LOOK IN HER EYE.
THESE DAYS, I'M AFRAID, SHE'S NOT EVEN SURE
IF HER NAME IS VERONICA.
DO YOU SUPPOSE, THAT WAITING HANDS ON EYES,
VERONICA HAS GONE TO HIDE?
AND ALL THE TIME SHE LAUGHS AT THOSE WHO SHOUT HER NAME
AND STEAL HER CLOTHES.
VERONICA, VERONICA. (VERONICA, VERONICA)
DID THE DAYS DRAG BY? DID THE FAVOURS WANE?
DID HE ROAM DOWN THE TOWN ALL THE TIME?
WILL YOU WAKE FROM YOUR DREAM, WITH A WOLF AT THE DOOR,
REACHING OUT FOR VERONICA?
WELL, IT WAS ALL OF SIXTY-FIVE YEARS AGO,
WHEN THE WORLD WAS THE STREET WHERE SHE LIVED.
AND A YOUNG MAN SAILED ON A SHIP IN THE SEA
WITH A PICTURE OF VERONICA.
ON THE "EMPRESS OF INDIA",
AND AS SHE CLOSED HER EYES UPON THE WORLD
AND PICKED UPON THE BONE OF LAST WEEK'S NEWS,
SHE SPOKE HIS NAME OUT LOUD AGAIN.
DO YOU SUPPOSE, THAT WAITING HANDS ON EYES,
VERONICA HAS GONE TO HIDE?
AND ALL THE TIME SHE LAUGHS AT THOSE WHO SHOUT HER NAME
AND STEAL HER CLOTHES.
VERONICA, VERONICA. (VERONICA, VERONICA)
VERONICA SITS IN HER FAVOURITE CHAIR
AND SHE SITS VERY QUIET AND STILL.
AND THEY CALL HER A NAME THAT THEY NEVER GET RIGHT
AND IF THEY DON'T THEN NOBODY ELSE WILL.
BUT SHE USED TO HAVE A CAREFREE MIND OF HER OWN,
WITH A DEVILISH LOOK IN HER EYE.
SAYING, "YOU CAN CALL ME ANYTHING YOU LIKE,
BUT MY NAME IS VERONICA."
DO YOU SUPPOSE, THAT WAITING HANDS ON EYES,
VERONICA HAS GONE TO HIDE?
AND ALL THE TIME SHE LAUGHS AT THOSE WHO SHOUT HER NAME

HE LEADS HER A MISERABLE LIFE.
BUT WHEN HE'S FULL OF THAT BEER-CHAMPAGNE,
SHE PADS, PAWS, PADS, PAWS AND CLAWS
AND IF HE SHOULD WAKE UP IN SOME TERRIBLE DIVE,
AND HE DON'T KNOW IF HE'S SO-SO,
BUT HE'S SO SURPRISED HE'S ALIVE.
"COME ON LITTLE HONEY, LET ME UNDER YOUR HIVE."
SHE PADS, PAWS, PADS, PAWS AND CLAWS
SHE PADS, PADS AROUND THE BEDROOM,
PRACTISING WAYS TO FLIRT.
HE PAWS, POURS ANOTHER DRINK
AND ANYTHING IN A SKIRT.
ANYTHING WEARING A NECKLACE,
HE THINKS OF CLAWS SCRATCHING HIS BACK,
HE'S GOING OUT THERE, HE'S NOT COMING BACK.
SHE'S GOT SPIDER-LEG FINGERS,
SHARPENED WHENEVER HE STRAYS.
AND SHE CARRIES A BIRD-PURSE,
WITH ALL OF HER WOMANLY WAYS.
'TIL HE'S DRINKING HAIRSPRAY,
SHE KNOWS THAT HE NEVER WOULD DARE,
SHE COULD BE IN PICTURES
IF SHE WASN'T ALL COVERED IN FUR
HE'S COMING HOME NOW AND HERE'S THE SURPRISE,
YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE THE LIES THAT HE TRIES.
SHE CUT HIM DOWN TO HER FAVOURITE SIZE,
