The Bees Album

You should think of a lesson
As a weapon of love
And teach your brother
Teach your sister
Think of a lesson as a weapon in love

ThereÂ's nothing you can do
But let time tick
Stay positive and show stiff lip
Nothing you can do
But let time tick away

I need twice as much space
And half as many things
A well written verse that I can sing
Twice as much space
And a new set of strings

These are the ghosts I made myself
These are the ghosts I made

We can bury the memory
If we want to go back
WeÂ're forward wanting
Past the haunting
Bury the memory
We donÂ't want to go back

I try and I fail
Sometimes I even succeed
If you look at my life
I canÂ't complain
If you know what I mean
And it is all the same
If your holding out you can wash in the rain

Wash in the rain, wash in th rain

I got salt you got pepper
Maybe we could get it together
I dig a hole you fill it up
Your the second thing to knock me over
Only to the waves at the edge of the water

Wash in the waves, wash in the waves

I find it hard to forget
All the effort in regret
Put in one pot thatÂ's big enough
ItÂ's bound to crack when it hits the rock
That Â'cause your wicked and you wouldnÂ't stop
That Â'cause your wicked and you wouldnÂ't stop

ThereÂ's no
Atmosphere
On the moon
Much like the vibe in the room
Cold, closed out
Needs more fuel
Because itÂ's too damn cool
Like old king cole
He grew too old
Died and didnÂ't get his wish
To be super rich and forever young

Well thatÂ's one step back

You know he did not go
Without leaving a stitch
To his wife
Who was a saucy dish
You know he owed her money
And thatÂ's sort of funny
With no room to negotiate
Before he passed
The pearly gates
And she made his grave from slate
ItÂ's not even straight
Not even straight

Well thatÂ's one step back

He was thinking like a madman
He was jealous on his own
And the sooner he figures
That he won't be going home
They left him the front key
Post it in when you go
Gave that man one more chance
To prove that there's no more

I have told you life's a worry and it's true
You're so serious, so what is it with you?

There never has been
So many rules crossed out in one
You can tell it to yourself
When you're the only one having fun
You remember the difference
You're held together, my son
And the subtle suggestions
Dropped by everyone

I have told you life's a worry and it's true
You're so serious, so what is it with you?

It's a good song for someone
But who's that gonna be?
My appetite for soul tonight
Is begging down on me
If it rolls and it rocks
And if you don't push, then it stops
If you see the people shouting out
You're allowed to shout out, too

I have told you life's a worry and it's true
You're so serious, so what is it with you?
I have told you life's a worry and it's true
You're so serious, so what is it with you?

I wouldn't ask if you knew
He's not that sure of his charm
One more taste can't be a waste
Not where this one's from

You wouldn't walk away
If my stories they weren't true

I love you

It's only make-believe
It's something that I do

I love you

Baby, there's no lies
I wouldn't make you cry

Mm, I love you

You're charming in my thoughts
With the magic that you brought

I love you

You wouldn't walk away
If my stories they weren't true

I love you

It's only make-believe
It's something that I do

I love you

Baby, there's no lies
I wouldn't make you cry-y

I love you

You're charming in my thoughts
Like the magic that you brought

I love you, love you

I love you
Yeah, I love you

I love you

You wouldn't walk away
If my stories they weren't true

I love you

It's only make-believe
It's something that I do

I love you

Baby, there's no lie
I wouldn't make you cry

I love you

You're all I'm dreaming of
You're the one and only love

I love you
I love you

Was it you in the shadows
IÂ've got to get this right
Walking away with your arms folded tight

How can I promise
IÂ'll never let you down
Put one worf on me
IÂ'm not the new man in town

Oh, thatÂ's so not the way
You should look at it
The effort in art
Comes from the heart
A place thatÂ's blood red
And hits from the start

Mister mister draw me your picture
Put on your suit and tie
Pour yourself a glass of wine

YouÂ're in a buyers hands
You canÂ't really lose
Just the dough that went
On all the paint you use

I saw you on the swings, you were looking at the sky.
Turned around and told me, there's one reason why.
You're the keeper of you're dreams, and the dreamer of you sake
What do you dream of when you're not awake?

I walk with you for hours. You gently helped my hand.
But our love's an hourglass.
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand

???????????????, when stories fade away.
The story's what it is, like what happened yesterday.
You said it was ok in the middle where we lay.
But then you heard me cry when the hourglass went dry.

I walk with you for hours. You gently helped my hand.
But our love's an hourglass.
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand

Well we said we'd keep in touch, so I guaranteed we must,
Gather up the day and let a sandle in the dust.
It's just they won't let me led, you're a lady, I'm a gent.
The different ways we went, were the different ways we went

I walk with you for hours. You gently helped my hand.
But our love's an hourglass.
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand

In the Sunday Times there's an article
About me and all and our go-karts
Lots of fancy words about two sets of wheels
That go fast

And only last week the news was read to me
By my best friend
Full of reports that made all our thoughts
Feel really active

I think I should stand up and apply myself
For the benefit of you, yours and my health
There's plenty of room for advantage
It's the effort required that makes you so tired

It's funny what they chose to tell us
It's the head turning press that makes me suggest
The message we think that's important
Won't make the page today ' cause it wont pay

I would like one glass of water
And I would like to dance with your daughter
I would like if you would let me
Take your girl off to the party
I'd bring her home
Your one and only
I'd earn your word
And treat her purely

I'm no king kong
I may be hairy
But don't get me wrong
I already told her
She can lean on my shoulder
For life, for life
For life

I would like a tree in a garden
That's big enough for us to climb on
Away from the world and it's burdens
Forgive me
Up in the leaves
We can be free and happy

I'm no king kong
I may be hairy
But not quite as strong
I already told her
She can lean on my shoulder
For life, for life
For life

The windows were black
But I saw through
You don't know me
And I don't know you
Through the viewfinder
There's no one beside her
I see there's no worry
See there's no hurry

This is the land that I traveled through

Bridges arriving
The stage coach is driving
Over the hills
Till you see the windmill
The sea in the harbour
Has left for the time now
And the ledge won't pretend
When it's holing your hull

This is the land that I traveled through
