Driving 03:51
lyrics
buy track
Heard you were driving, heard you were driving off Well I wouldn’t if I were ... if I were you They say there’s a storm up on the desert road Pretty foul weather closing in Blacktop melts in 33 degrees The tape machine plays 'The Ghost In You' Is that a weird cloud shape? Or a UFO? Pretty strange weather closing in Driving … heard you were driving Heard you were driving, open quarterlight Wind sheer lightning was never as calm They say there’s a storm up on the desert road Pretty strange weather closing in

No Ordinary Day 03:50
lyrics
buy track
I hear the stories that you tell, I know them so well When love's the last thing on your mind And in the end it's all the same ... I cry for you Your pale face looks so strange It's no ordinary day I'd like to fall into no ordinary time I'd like to fall ... Here in the corner of my mind I wait for you To discover I am blind, I'm blind I hear the stories that you tell I watched as you fell

The Crown 02:17
lyrics
buy track
Well do we fall or will we rise? Touch the floor or hit the skies Are we weak or are we wise? This is my cup, this is your crown You pick it up and I put it down Tell me what you've found We wait in bliss, we wait in fear Was that a kiss? Was that a tear? Tell me when I'm near 'Cause once is once and twice is twice Don't be afraid not to be nice Give me one more slice So will you miss me when I'm gone? Or will you kiss me in a song? Tell me if I'm wrong Well do we fall or will we rise? Touch the floor or hit the skies Are we weak or are we wise?

Madelaine (remastered version) 03:21
lyrics
buy track
Madelaine lies face down on the sand She’s got one of those magazines That tells you how to lose all this weight in 5 easy ways “It’s all so far and away” is all she can say Madelaine changes her name three times a day She likes to be 1) obscure ... and anyway She knows how to soar high in the clouds Everything is so far and so wide (or so she has found) And Madelaine likes to say she’s tired of waiting Her plans all fall to the ground Is this all of God’s making? It’s all so far and away, or so she has found And Madelaine likes to play And stay out all night under swirling lights (if she can) Is this all of God’s making?

Just Like Always 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Who will dance with you now that the party's over? We were fooling around, we were getting nowhere Just like always, ain't it always just like always? Swirl around on the floor, now we're floating under The smell of too many nights when the taste was fear Just like always, ain't it always just like always? Just like Napoleon you live in hope And tonight's the night when no-one sees your escape Who will dance with you now that the party's over? Who will spin you around when the music stops playing? Just like always, ain't it always just like always? Give it all away, just like always

The Only Tourist 03:54
lyrics
buy track
The only tourist on the beach sends a postcard home He's gone native in a tropical shirt and left a few things undone Went to bed in his new skin, dreamed of summer too Wasn't fooled by the fake easy eyes, wasn't fooled at all This can never be enough ... You don't believe all you've heard from this non-paying passenger Sitting round at a kitchen table, nothing much to say Bougainvillea hangs overhead, there's yachts in the bay And you can't believe how long you've stayed When you've broken every rule you you've made You don't believe all you've heard from this non-paying passenger You were feeling so brave ... rescue's just an ocean away

A Matter of Days 04:18
lyrics
buy track
You know what they say (go under, go under) In a matter of days (go under, go under) Stop swallowing that Your smile makes me sigh (go under, go under) Hello, then goodbye (go under, go under) You know that it’s true (go under, go under) In a matter of days (go under, go under) In a matter of days …

Fool 03:54
lyrics
buy track
Always seem to come to you Always seem to What a fool am I to start what should never have been started What a fool am I to think that you would be broken-hearted Better pray for me 'cause a fool and his tongue are never parted Instant glory's got a lot to do with it Instant glory What a fool am I to think that you would be broken-hearted What a fool was I to start what should never have been started Better pray for me 'cause a fool and his tongue are never parted In the movies, always get away with it Same old story

This Feeling 05:01
lyrics
buy track
I've got this feeling, I know this feeling off by heart It's the same one that I get in my car when we've driven all too far I have distractions, I have distractions all the time They scream up and hit you from behind I always want to follow, I never want to fall I know this beast of, I know this beast of love's alive Alive and kicking on both sides, it never wants to die And it's just as well that this very sight of you Is the only sight of you that I need now Is this a promise out of love or a promise out of fear? All I want is standing near In this cold May rain (turning slowly) In this cold May rain I've never been closer, I've never been this close before Like living on a knife-edge in a storm When there's no-one you can call I've got this feeling, I have these feelings all the time They roll up and hit you from inside I always want to follow, I never want to fall And it's just as well that this very sight of you Is the only sight of you that I need now And you know this time (and we say so) There's nothing more that I can do And it's warm inside of you In this cold May rain (turning slowly) In this cold May rain
