I spend the night
Yeah looking for my insides in a hotel room
Waiting for you

Were gonna make it tonight
Yeah something in the air tells me the time is right
So we'd better get it on

And DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please, play a song for the lovers, tonight

Don't wanna wait
Lord I've been waiting all my life but I'm too late again
I know but I was scared

Can't you see
I'm moving like a train into some foreign land
I ain't Got a Ticket for this ride but I will

Ooh, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please play a song for the Lovers, tonight

Can't stop looking back no no

One more for the lovers

Oh brother won't you lend a hand I'm alone in a room and I'm waiting for love I don't know when this trains gonna stop But I'm telling you friend I don't want to get up

. . .



I get my beat with you
When we see things through
And I think about you all the time

Who the winners in the game were playing
I don't even think they know
Who the losers and how much their paying
I don't even think they know

I need to hear the truth
From the soul of you
Chase the moments we can share

Who the winners in the game were playing
I don't even think they know
Who the losers and how much their paying
I don't even think they know

They got time
They got life
Take and take your time

I got to hear the sound of the morning song
As the light plays with your head
I'm blowing smoke and
I'll feel so damn fine
I know you care

Who the winners in the game were playing
I don't even think they know
Who the losers and how much their paying
I don't even think they know

. . .



Into the brave new world
I hope I see you on the other side
Of this changing world

Baby when my ship pulls in
I try to believe in anyone
Look at the state I'm in.

But for now I'm just sitting at the table
Hearing songs
Wishing I was able, stable
nah nah nah nah nah nah (x3)
I hope I see you on the other side (x2)

Brother don't try to find
Don't try to believe in anyone
For I would change your mind

Baby when my ship pulls in
I try to believe in anyone
Look at the state I'm in, I'm fine

But for now I'm just sitting at the table
Hearing songs
Wishing I was able, stable
nah nah nah nah nah nah (x6)
I hope I see you on the other side (x6)

But for now I'm just sitting at the table Hearing songs
Wishing I was able, stable
Brave new world (x3)
nah nah nah nah nah nah (x6)
I hope I see you on the other side x6

Are you tuning in (x4)

And I wanted to go
Half my life
And I feel kind of strange
Like I never lived that life

And I'm trying hard
To control my heart
And I always want to know
And I always want to go

New York are you tuning in
New York big city of dreams
New York oh what a city
New York
Are you tuning in (x4)

There's now time to unpack, yea
Let's get straight out on the street
And feel no inhibitions
This city was built for me

And my head is full of questions
When did I feel this good
In the arms of my lover
Burning through the night of New York

And its funny how time flies
In the city that never sleeps
It's getting after hours
And I'm feeling the heat

I'm almost dead and buried
The day nearly done
But I want to keep on going
I'm going to kiss the sun in New York

And I'm feeling kind of selfish
Cause I'm just flying home
I've been busy on your island
Just having my own fun
It's an English tradition

Find some money make some time
Get busy on your island
And slowly lose our minds in New York

. . .



You ain't ever seen
The way to find your dream
Forget what's within within
Cos who you've been you've been

If all we lose is the skin
I'm pulling you under within
We're gonna make this life together

The symptoms are too deep
I got you on my mind in my sleep
you on my mind in my sleep

Do you know how hard I'll try
To lose this foolish pride
Can you take me as I am
Can you understand me I'm changing now

If all we lose is the skin
I'm pulling you under within
We're gonna make this life together

The symptoms are too deep
I got you on my mind in my sleep
you on my mind in my sleep

I got you on my mind in my sleep
Heavenly body

. . .



There's nothing really wrong with the state of your ambition
The whole world is crumbling
Cos your crazy vision

All wars are boys and death is what you hate most
Come on baby
Don't you want to get a new size
new size x3

It's a crazy world
For a mixed up boy and a mixed up girl x2

So you got no god
You got no love
To tell me off
But you've got that spirit
So please stick with it
This world wouldn't be
A world without you in it
Please Shelter Me x2

Upon this Crazy World

It's chewing on my brain like a desert train locus
I find it hard to love
I find it hard to focus

The whole world is crumbling
Cos their crazy visions
Come on baby
Don't you want to get a new size
new size x3

It's a crazy world
For a mixed up boy and a mixed up girl x2

So you got no god
You got no love
To tell me off
But you've got that spirit
So please stick with it
This world wouldn't be
A world without you in it
Please Shelter Me x2

Upon this Crazy World

You got to keep your spirit (please stick with it)
There ain't a world without you in it (choose the spirit)
Keep that spirit (please stick with it)
There ain't a world without you in it (choose the spirit)

So you got no god
You got no love
To tell me off
But you've got that spirit
So please stick with it
This world wouldn't be
A world without you in it
Please Shelter Me x2

Shelter me x4
yeah

Ohhhhh in this crazy world
For a mixed up boy and a mixed up girl x10

I have swam those raging seas
Washed up by an ocean who had tired of me
How I survive

I will never know
This wreck got a home
And a whole lot of hope

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got
I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
Said bring me your master
I don't want his dog

I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire
I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire
Full of love and new desire

I lit my fire blew my conch
Nobody comes
I built my boat from bamboo
But it sunk
I looked at the sky for vapour trails
Nobody comes
I wrote your name on a tree
Along with the days this is taking you away from me

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got
I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
And said bring me your master
I don't want his dog

Well I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire
I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire
I ain't afraid to die
Ain't afraid to die
And here we go
Ain't afraid to

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got
I saw the devil serpant
I sent him home
And said bring me your master I don't want his dog

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got
I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
And said bring me your master
I don't want his do

. . .

Slow was my heart

. . .



Sometimes I feel like I can't move on
Nothing in life is turning me on

But I still see clearly
When I see you smiling

You know nothing seems to fit
I couldn't see my way through the shit

When every single second of my waking day
Was thinking of you
Thinking of you
You never know

That I am alive
I am alive
I wanna grow

There are so many things I can do
Just like falling in love with you
Take my hand now, understand me
You can come here too

C'mon people, we're making it now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C'mon people, we're making it now
Yeah, yeah, yeah

But today I worked it out
I got something I can shout about
Someone who believes in all the things I'm thinking

But where have you gone
Where have you gone
I'll never know

And I am alive
I am alive
I wanna grow

There are so many things I can do
Just like falling in love with you
Take my hand now, understand me
You can come here too

C'mon people we're making it now
If only you could be with us

. . .



Cold morning
I was looking out it was a cold day

Songbird was drinking from a table
But songbird you just flew away

Everybody's gotta feel the weight of death sometime
And find out what it's like to be left behind
Sometimes you don't get a chance to ask where or why
So let it break the magic beauty of your fragile mind
And let it break the magic beauty of your fragile mind

It's not a sign of weakness
When you're searching for the places where the memories flow

There may come a time when you rearrange and may leave those memories
You've gotta let them go

Everybody's gotta feel the weight of death sometime
And find out what it's like to be left behind
Sometimes you don't get a chance to ask where or why
Let it break the magic beauty of your fragile mind (x4)

Everybody's gotta feel the weight of death sometime
And find out what it's like to be left behind
Sometimes you don't get a chance to ask where or why
Let it break the magic beauty of your fragile mind (x4)

Stay strong
Move on
Keep on

Stay strong
Move on
Keep on

. . .



leave me high
leave me looking
leave me low
leave me warm
no love can fulfil
like this love that you give
leave me high
leave me looking
over mountains in the heavens
no love can fulfil
like this love that you give

wasted moments come together
like a ball on a string
your love take me higher
realise everything
take those chains from your heart and soul
and take those chains from your heart and soul

take those chains from your heart and soul
and take those chains from your heart and soul
yeah like a slow train
and take those chains from your heart and soul
yeah like a slow train
and take those chains from your heart and soul
yeah like a slow train
and take those chains from your heart and soul
and take those chains from your heart and soul
through the mountains over heavens
through the mountains over heavens
leave me high
leave me looking

. . .



we, we have this fight within
born through circumstance
XYYYYY me
if you don't look you cant fail to see

then we fly my love
through the stars above
they'll write out your name when I am gone
they'll map out my way when I'm far from home

if you see my love tell that I'm fine
if you see my love tell that I'm fine
if you see my love tell that I'm fine
if you see my love tell that I'm fine
if you see my love tell that I'm fine
if you see my love tell that I'm fine
alright
