Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark Album

This is the room

Everyday
A new start
A cheap affair
A sordid truth
We'll never learn
To guide our hearts
We'll never find
What we deserve

She's leaving
She waited for so long

She'd pretend
Thant she cared
Invent some tale
Just to gain his heart
But no more dreams
She didn't dare
She washed her hands
Of this whole affair

She's leaving
She waited for so long

But as she left
She gave her heart
Abandoned hope
And turned for home
I thought I'd ask
But then again
The more we learn
The less we know

SOUVENIR

It's my direction
It's my proposal
It's so hard
It's leading me astray

My obsession
It's my creation
You'll understand
It's not important now

********In conversation
********In combination
********I tell the truth
********My feelings still remain

All I need is
Co-ordination
I can't imagine
My destination
My intention
Ask my opinion
But no excuse
My feelings still remain

My feelings still remain

Sealand
She forgets
Her friends

She'll not
Leave them
Again

Mother
Sister
And home

These arms
Fail you
So

A little catholic girl

If Joan of Arc
Had a heart
Would she give it as a gift

To such as me
Who longs to see
How an angel ought to be

She seems to give
Her heart away
Like an orphan on the wain

She cared so much
She offered up
Her body to the flames

Instrumental

Well
Here we are again
Too
Too good to be friends

Forever, forever, forever

Well
Look at what we've done
Three
Threee rolled into one

Together, together, together

So!
How can this be true
We
We thought that we knew you

Forever, forever, forever

We will watch the morning star
Rising home over Georgia
Dancing in the ruins of the western world
Blindfolds on and we don't care

This is where we start
This now take our hearts
Away

Thus we reach the end
The beginning and the end
You see
I could not try
And here you and I
Parting due to me only
And now
