Robbie Williams Album

Here I stand victorious
The only man who made you come
When you cried, you cried for us
And when we died, you died alone
Gravity's calling
Don't go home
Where are we

Did what I could
For one of us
I always thought it was for you
And when I lied
Oh I lied for us
Because you never heard the truth
I am lying alone tonight
Don't go home
Where are we

If we are ghosts
(A long long time ago)
It looks like we could have made it baby
We are ghosts
(A long long time)
Me and you
We are ghosts
(A long long time ago)
We could have made it
We are ghosts
(A long long time)
Me and you
(Ago)

Look at the time its taken me
To get away from what was said
I'll never leave
I'll always love
You know that all those words are dead
Buried in yours tonight
Move aside
I'm taking you home

On the radio
She was that summer song
Packing them in
Making them dance
A law of her own
Taking the time to sing it
I don't need you
But I'm lost
I'm lost without you tonight
Have you no heart
Where are we
(Everybody sing it)

Ghosts
We love like ghosts
We are ghosts
They're taking down our satellite
We are ghosts
Josephine
I'll follow your star tonight
We are ghosts
If not tonight
Then when will she say
(Everybody sing it)

First they ignore you
Then laugh at you, and hate you
Then they fight you
Then you win

When the truth dies
Very bad things happen
They're being heartless again

I know it's gone and there's gonna be violence
(Want you to love me)
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
(Want you to be)
Why do you think we should suffer in silence
(The heavens above me)
When a heart is broken, there's nothing to break
(Eternally)

You've been mixing with some very heavy faces
The boys have done a bit of bird
They don't kill their own
And they all love their mothers
But you're out of your depth son
Have a word

I know it's gone and there's gonna be violence
(Want you to love me)
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
(Want you to be)
Why do you think we should suffer in silence
(The heavens above me)
The heart is broken, theres nothing to break
(Eternally)

All is wonderful in past life
Dreaming of the son she wants
You should see me in the afterlife
Picking up the sons of guns

RAP:
When you think we're lost, we're exploring
What you think is worthless, I'm adoring
You don't want the truth, truth is boring
I got this fever, need to
Leave the house
Leave the car
Leave the bad men where they are
I leave a few shells in my gun
And stop me staring at the sun

I know it's gone and there's gonna be violence
(Want you to love me)
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
(Want you to be)
Why do you say we should suffer in silence
(The heavens above me)
My heart is broken, there's nothing to break

Some will sing a song
To reel 'em in
It's a song I sung before
And a song I'm gonna sing again
I mean every word
I don't mean a single one of them
Oh Lord
Make me pure
But not yet

I tell a joke
Tell it twice
If noone else is laughin'
Then why am I
I split my sides both times
And laugh until I cry
Oh Lord
Make me pure
But not yet

I don't have to try
I just dial it in
I've never found a job that for me was worth bothering
I've got a ton of selfish genes
And lazy bones beneath this skin
Oh Lord
Make me pure
But not yet

Smoking kills
Sex sells
I got one hand in my pocket
But the other one looks cool as hell
I know I'm gonna die
So my revenge is living well
Oh Lord
Make me pure
But not yet

I stopped praying
So I hope this song will do
I wrote it all
For you
I'm not perfect
But you don't mind that do you
I know you're there to pull me through
Aren't you

So I looked for love
I like to search
And I'll be standing for election
All across the known universe
And every president'll get the country she deserves
Oh Lord
Make me pure
But not yet

And I've been seeing
Somebody's wife
She said she'd leave him for me
And I said that wasn't wise
You can't lie to a liar
Because of all the lies
Oh Lord
Please make me pure

I used to live 'round here
I was the boy with the flash clothes
She was the girl with the acid stare
I saw her at the place
You knows she knows you know
How she shakes
When she jacks her body
To the sounds of Oran Juice Jones
and Jocelyn Brown

Oh spread your wings
Before they fall apart
Home is where the hurt is darlin'
Follow your heart

So she walks into this dead end bar
Sticks her handbag
On the chair
So she walks into this dead end bar
Puts hers handbag on the chair
And she waits
For words we shared
When we were 15 and still cared
Cos she feels I'm a scar from the wound that time cant heal
And I said
Don't let your dreams out of your head
Stick it to the man instead
Don't fool your heart
Lying about the fears that you had back then

Did you try to change your life
Did you ever try to change your life
You repeat and repeat and repeat
Now what's up with that

Now she loves somebody else
In flash clothes
She was the girl with the acid stare
And now she paid to have
One of those

And she weighs the word she says
And she knows
You exist
Now she feels I'm the scar from the wound that time cant heal

Oh spread your wings
Before they fall apart
Home is where the hurt is darlin
Follow your heart

Spread your wings
Before they fall apart
Home is where the hurt is darlin
Follow your heart

There's no earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart
When it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you

Waiting for God to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying somethin'

There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
They're still fighting over
Everything you left over

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

And
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profit s go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space

Through your eyes
The world was burning
Please be gentle
I'm still learning
You seemed to say
As you kept turning up

They poisoned you with compromise
At what point did you realise
Everybody loves your lies
But you ahahh

Special agent for the man
Through watergate and vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

And
No one learned from your mistake
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space ooooohh

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space

I've seen your daughter
Man shes cute
I was scared but I wanted to

Let me
Lie down
Please don't wake me
Nothing's
Sacred
And no one saved me

In my
Black eye
I can feel her
Moving
Closer
Cant you hear her

Only gift you gave to me
The self fulfilling prophecy
I need to change the sounds that shape my life

And if you die
before I leave
What on earth
Becomes of me
Look around
There's no one here
To love me
And hold me

Take me
Dancing
I love music
Keep on
Singing
We wont lose it
Picture
Me there
Missing no one
If young hearts
Run free
Why cant we go on
Go until they kick us out
We've everything to talk about
I could bring the song into your life

If you should die
Before I leave
What on earth
Becomes of me
Look around
There's no one here
To love me
And hold me

Maybe I've been away too long
I know I'm not always right
But is that wrong
They say there's nothing I cant do
I talk to strangers
And wave to you

If you should die
Before I leave
What on earth
Becomes of me
Look around
There's no one here
To love me
And hold me

And if you die
Before I leave
What on earth
Becomes of me
Look around
There's no one here
To love me

Hey, hey here comes no one
Another friend to have a go on
And she asks me do I miss her when she's gone
And I reply
As much as I miss anyone
Oh
Woohoo

And I'll be your gay friend
Cos your marriage never ends
So we can fuck and fight again
There's a space between us
So jump into my bed
We'll pretend the world is dead
But always in my head
There's a space between us

Hey Lord forgive us if we're wrong
I'll make sure that he never hears this song
And she says that Im the
Opposite of a hallmark card
And she asks me how I'm feeling
Well
I dont wanna make think hard

And I'll be your gay friend
Cos your marriage never ends
So we can fuck and fight again
There's a space between us
Jump into my bed
And pretend the world is dead
And always in my head
There's a space between us

It's the late show now
How does the late show end
Well God is in the details
I doubt that you're my friend
I have a friend again
You are my friend again
My gay friend

So jump into my bed
We'll pretend the world is dead
Always in my head
There's a space between us

And I'll be your gay friend
Cos your marriage never ends
So we can fuck and fight again
There's a space between us

Dont let your eyes tell the brain
You should feel ashamed
Everyone needs it baby
And I feel the same
Didnt quite catch your name
Hush, hush, hush
Dont say a thing
Let's see what the night will bring
It might be everything

Oh it hurts
When you're too blind to see
Please dont read my mind
I tell the truth to me

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and light
Deep inside

Hush hush hush
To speak is a sin
And neither of us
Need rescuing
Just relax
It's what Jesus would do
We're made in his image baby
Lets ride this thing through

Oh it hurts
When you're to blind to see
What about us
Well it was just for me

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and light
Deep inside

I wont sing of amore
It dont sound sincere
love is a cliche
But it fits not here
I'll disappear

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and light
Deep inside

Deep inside

Its love
Clean sex joy
I love you
You love my
Hate how it it feels inside
Feels inside

For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those of us who live in fear
Of Happy Christmas and new year
I raise a toast to you

And if it hurts
To be so blind
Why dont you try
being kind

They decided to become
A little more romantic
Creep up on you
While you sleep
I'll make you less attractive

Born without a spine
Why dont you try
Being kind

For those attempting their mother's way
You'll find a way to soldier on
For those whose love evaporates
I pray you find where you belong
All the words I have repressed
Are coming out today
I guess
It is justice not respect and avarice
And that just leaves comtempt
For you all
Oh oh oh
Yeah yeah
Yeah

I am just a simple man
With simple expectations
Deep regrets
They're seldom met
God speed my generation

And with ? on my mind
I should try being kind

For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry

You see the trouble with me
I'm a basket case
I dont think I can love, love, love

You see the trouble with you
Is your in love with me
What a strange thing to do
What a brave place to be

So we dive
On sunset strip
Our hearts so deep
I drown in it
And as it breaks
I swim through cracks
And leave with words
I can't take back

You see the trouble with me
Monkey see monkey do
There's no u in tomorrow
A better offer came through
You see the trouble with you
There's no trouble with you
So when you say that you love me
That stops me loving you

So she stays
On sunset strip
Our hearts so full
I drown in it
She's waiting for
My words to break
The one true love
I couldn't make

So she walks
That golden mile
Men will try
And catch her eye
We both know
What could have been
On sunset strip

I'm on a mission
To abuse my position
Abuse it with you

Love, I'm a cynical bitch
I'm gonna scratch that itch
With a bitch like you

Harder thinkers make me miserable
Everything is unforgivable
If not for you
I wouldnt come at all

Find a place to crash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)
Move your phoney ass
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)

Love me like I'm cash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)
You can feel the clash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)

Guitar

If theres a freak in here
Looking for someone like me
I fit their description
Perfectly

Boom boom boom
I bet they'll desert you
They would if they met you
Met you with me

Every move you make is poetry
They all fake what you do naturally
If not for you
I wouldnt come at all

Find a place to crash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)
Move your phoney ass
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)

Love me like I'm cash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)
You can see the clash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)


Kiss me with your mouth
Teach me with your brain
All right

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Things that I say
When I say nothing at all
It leaves a taste in my stomach
And its no taste at all

I can sing, I can't dance
But it don't stop me at all
Its a ball and I'll call , if I call you at all

Love is the reason but it wont pay my rent
Only baloney fill your dish in the dent
I wont be happy till the moneys been spent
I forget to forget, oh forget, oh forget

.... speak so loud
I cant hear what you say
Except for the occassional word
So fates a sentimental side
It bothers me
No longer king of bloke and bird

All of my life
Searching hard
Down in the wilds
Of love

Summon me now
Summon my life away
Summon me onto another day
A hand through the clouds
Keeps knocking me down
It's no less than I deserve
They built museums
I dont visit them
I've made enough trouble of my own

Into the night
Searching hard
Look for the light
Of love

Summon me now
Summon my life away
Summon me on to another day
Summon the evening winter waves of falling down again
I sing from the chaos in my heart
My heart

Then comes the evening
That makes life worth living
Shoving the shoes out in the light
She walks in
