Teenage Fanclub Album

Drifting back through blossom streets
The silent me to loud
The cooling towers(?) and the mysteries
The gloaming lights tonight

Deep inside you never let go
Deep inside you never let this go

Taking a ride on a subway train
To feel more alive when you get back out again
And if you meet those eyes you feel all is known
Under a summer sky there's a gentle wind is blowing

Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything

Heading west towards the glowing evening sunset
On an august night
Waking up before the mist is fully lifted
In the morning light
You feel the sadness in her eyes
As the autumn wind and golden leaves starts singing

Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything
Sometimes I don't need to believe in anything

Love me, leave me
Take my possessions and go
Wine me, dine me
Wreck all the things that I know

I'm enchanted I've fallen under your spell
How can I resist when you cast them so well

Baby Lee I'm only trying to remind you
They had me in mind oh yeah when they designed you
And Baby Lee I'm always watching from a distance
Oh marry marry me oh baby now I am insisting

Wake me, shake me
Put my emotions on show
Make me suffer
Tell everyone that you know

I'm enchanted I've fallen under your spell
How can I resist when you cast them so well

Baby Lee I'm only trying to remind you
They had me in mind oh yeah when they designed you
And Baby Lee I'm always watching from a distance
Oh marry marry me oh baby now I am insisting

I fell into another world
I tried to discover what I was
I fell into my lovers arms
and I tried to recover what I'd lost

I'll miss part of the day
I feel the feelings I've lost
Crossing lines I'd never thought I'd cross
To uncover new ways

I turn my back on the city sights
And I climb into the mountains to see the stars
My eyes fixed time on those ancient lights
Like gravity makes fountains what they are

I'll miss part of the day
I feel the feelings I've lost
Spend my time and never count the cost
Crossing lines I'd never thought I'd cross
To uncover a new way

A new way

The leaves on the trees shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see they won't be there for long
When I light a fire underneath what I was
I won't feel sad only warmed by the loss

Headlights turned on and set to stun
Waiting with everyone in the starless night
Steep climb right into the mists of (???)
Down through the cloud again (in/on?) the northern (side?)

Over there is a brand new river, the slow continuous (???)
By the open moors and empty fields, the serpentine twisting right
Live wires and endless streets, the crowded valley's alight
Breaking through the warm electric glow that stretches deep out of sight
As we drive again to the city

The city secrets open up before my eyes
The colored street is beautiful, there's butterflies
It feels so alive
Feels so alive

Street lights, I've been away too long
Missing you strolling on, every day and night
For the sweet life, joy in my heart is (strong?)
Feel it's where I belong, every day and night

Street lights...

The wind it haunts the valleys
The rivers running away
The cities and the soil
The pavements, stones and the clay

Dark clouds are following you
But they'll drift away
I watched the night turning into a day

The memories, illusions
Are pouring over my mind
The beautiful confusion
A voyage into the night

Dark clouds are following you
But they'll drift away
I watched the night turning into a day

The lovers and the mothers
The summers spent in the sun
The living and the dying
The race is still to be run

Dark clouds are following you
But they'll drift away
I watched the night turning into a day

Dark clouds are following you
But they'll drift away
I watched the night turning into a day

Dark clouds are following you
But they'll drift away
I watched the night turning into a day

Rolling through the city sprawl
On a late night train
The moon will survive us all

Waiting for a friend to call
I'm adrift again
I search for nothing at all

Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
Let the past come back to rescue you

Seduced by a friendly fire
I just watch the window
Machines couldn't take me higher
Don't wanna to be a lonely liar
With a living tombstone
Your warmth fills my desire

Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
Let the past come back to rescue you

I wake up to the morning star
Embraced by false phosphorescence
My dreams stay where they are
I don't know where to start
Alone and lost and guessing
Revealed by an open heart

Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
You know what it'll do
Memory detains it all
Your know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call

Let the past come back to rescue you
The past come back to rescue you
The past come back to rescue you
The past comes back to rescue you

Electrical is ??
The anchor and the strife
They are analyzing details
Through the morning, through the night
And chaos, order
From darkness, light
I will offer no resistance
I can offer no respite

Wake me when the conflict is over
I aim for a peaceful life
Shake me when this madness is no more
I favour a peaceful life

Cain and Abel
The wrong and the right
I will offer no resistance
In the battle, in the fight

Wake me when the conflict is over
I aim for a peaceful life
Shake me when this madness is no more
I favour a peaceful life

Wake me up when the fury is over
I like living a peaceful life
Shake me when this conflict is no more
My aim is a peaceful life

From the western isles to the tasman sea
There's a world of men and machinery
But the birds still sing and the sun shines free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

Well, the rolling stones wrote a song for me
It's a minor song in a major key
But the stars still shine, the museums free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

It's a modern hymn for the you and me
For the go betweens and the red army
Long as I still breathe and the air's still free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

But the birds still sing and the sun shines free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee
For the rolling stones and the red army
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

Clouds in the sky
Reflecting the sea
They mirror my life
And they disappear

Breathing the air
Got nowhere to be
I get my life
From the atmosphere

I wander the earth
But now I've come back here
To live with the seasons
And to be with you

I've pondered the worth
Af our life's of this spehere
But I don't need reasons
When I'm here with you

Distracted by life
Don't know what to be
But infinite feelings
Never disappear

Rain on my face
Pulled up from the sea
There's an ocean of meaning
And a lovers tear

The wind and snow and rain
Make me feel you

I wander the earth
But now I've come back here
To live with the seasons
And to be with you

I've pondered the worth
Of our life's of this spehere
But I don't need reasons
When I'm here with you

I'll live without reasons
When I'm here with you

Storm clouds in the harbour
Dark waves have been drawing you in
This big old world's getting harder
Waiting for the troubled days to end

I know you're strong and I wish you well
Caught like the air in a diving bed

Hard nights in the city
Holding for the breaking of the dawn
This big old world's getting darker
Sometimes it's hard to know what's going on

'Round to the light is declining
But somewhere beyond the horizon

Sweet, sweet days are waiting there for you
Sweet, sweet days are waiting there for you
There are sweet, sweet days waiting there for you
There are sweet, sweet days waiting there for you
Sweet, sweet days waiting there for you
There will be sweet, sweet days waiting there for you

She's in the mountains looking for a melody
She says there's music living in the breeze
You just can't look beyond the horizon
She is a diamond waiting to be free

She calls to me
Sweet memory
She calls to me from the back of my mind

She is a stream that's searching for a river
She is the sunlight taken by the sea
She doesn't know what's dead or living
She's like a diamond waiting to be free

She calls to me
Sweet memory
She calls to me from the back of my mind

She is a river searching for an ocean
She says there's magic hidden in the ?truth?
She doesn't if she's dead or living
She is a diamond waiting to be free

She calls to me
Sweet memory
She calls to me from the back of my mind

The sunlight pours in through my windows
I travel back in time
The past's a place where chaos stays indoors
The time you borrowed arise tomorrow
Today's the day that never ends

I listen to your conversation
And look into your eyes
They trasmit different information
The time you borrowed arise tomorrow
Today's the day that never ends
The time you borrowed arise tomorrow
Today's the day that never ends
Ends
