Coneygar Hill
02:44
|
|||
|
I can see the steeple in the autumn, morning light
As we reach the top of Coneygar Hill
And I try to track the sun as it drifts gently 'cross the sky
Heaven knows someday I will
On the other side lies all our doubts and all our fears
It always seems to be much colder
Something oh, so sad about this place this time of year
As you and I are getting older
Mountains of leaves down the lane
And as the cars go by, you grab my hand as they go flying
And I can see those trees in evey nightmare I endure
They line the path of our ascension
And I can hear your voice in every corner of my soul
Sighing words of hushed affection
Mountains of leaves down the lane
And as the cars go by, you grab my hand as they go flying
I can see the steeple in the autumn, morning light
As we reach the top of Coneygar Hill

The Midnight Patrol
03:48
|
|||
|
I, I run the midnight patrol
It isn't quite as romantic as it sounds
But when the tide turns the swells all come in
And they unleash me like a pack of hounds
For all my sins, I wade into the water
Well someone 'oughta
Whiskey makes the times pass, it seems to go much faster
And meetings with the harbour master
I, I run the midnight patrol
It isn't quite as exciting as it sounds
But if you stand and watch ships coming in
You'll gain a sense of perspective on this town
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Oh I, I am the midnight patrol (x4)

April '51 outside Seoul in a firefight
I left my brother back on Hill 235
I got my papers in the Spring of 1953
Lord, what became of the men in B Company?
Losing our faith, choosing our fate
Lost in the 29th infantry brigade
The black clouds were gathering high
Over the Imjin River
Brothers in blood, here comes the flood
Children of God only misunderstood
The black clouds were gathering high
Over the Imjin River on that bloody night
April '51 outside Seoul, my brother and I
Stranded here, I wonder 'bout the rest of the company
It's heavy this feeling that the battle's gone and given me
On Hill 235, I'm on my own, I wish I'd stayed at home... home
(REPEAT CHORUS)

The Late Night Train
03:07
|
|||
|
Where is this train going?
How long have I been riding?
There without you knowing
Some shadow that's been hiding
Life has promised nothing
Lost beneath your darkest sky
Time is quickly rushing
So sit back and enjoy the ride
Where is this train heading?
What's coming 'round the corner?
There a midnight wedding
And a group of silent mourners
Shine your headlights brightly
Thunder on along the tracks
I will hold on tightly
I'm never, ever coming back...

Nothing Lasts Forever
03:43
|
|||
|
Dead to the world, she's a bundle of hatred and hurting
By the azalias, we sit and we watch the world turning
She had a theory on everything that I believed in
Someday I hope that you choke on the air that you're breathing
She says "don't you know, nothing lasts forever"
Nothing lasts forever
I keep your picture so I can remember your smile
Maybe tomorow I'll go to the beach for a while
Fading and falling through memories we made last December
The words that hurt most, nearly always the ones you remember
She says "don't you know, nothing lasts forever"
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever (x4)

We played along those old school rules
We live like heroes, die like fools
Just didn't have the heart to tell you
Where you've been and what I've seen
More than pain upon my screen
For forty minutes with Kobashi
Blood on the canvas and words on the pages
Lasting impressions that live through the ages
Through our mistakes we can only get wiser
Long live the greatest, long live the Tiger Mask II
Mitsuharu Misawa
You went up whilst I stayed low
You're all torn up but good to go
Whilst I rest my head on a pillow
Life is such a dangerous thing
I hope I die inside a ring
Then maybe this could all mean something
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Promises
01:41
|
|||
|
Walk through the wreckage and avoid the broken glass amongst the rubble
Pushing and pulling, gravity and force upon a bubble
I kept my promises long enough to get just what I want
But I won't be happy until all the little people have gone
Pull at the wings of flies and moths, pin them to a piece of paper
Drawn in a circle that transcends life and death within it's nature
I kept my promises long enough to see your vacant smile
I may be twisted, but at least I do it with some style

Lucy
03:02
|
|||
|
Lucy, do you remember
Those dark skies of iris and amethyst, glowing like ashes and embers?
Lucy whispers so gentle
She whispers goodbye to the world now that life is so inconsequential
And I want you to know
That someone loves you, someone needs you around
Lucy, queen of the ocean
Waltzing your way to the darkside, love's dying wish of devotion
Lucy, lost to the heavens
Waits for the clock to strike midnight, it's already half past eleven
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Lucy, do you remember?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?

Meet me tonight near the lake outside
By the fields where the fireflies glow
Your eyes on me, blue as the sea
Make me realise just how little I know
Though I know
All those stars in the sky are shining brightly
All those stars in the sky are shining brightly
When we first met, we listened to cassettes
We would laugh and dance and kiss all summer
Well that was then, this is now
And there's a whole wide world there to discover
Though I know
(REPEAT CHORUS)
So whisper goodbye softly, my love
I'll dig some courage and say those words you're dreaming of
So stay for a while, show me your smile
Like you did when we first met that evening
Down by the pier I'll hold you near
In October as we both are leaving
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Honeydrop
02:47
|
|||
|
You've been on the road so long
Have you forgotten how to live?
Whispers of affection and promises
Just words, more than I can give
Honeydrop, honeydrop, come home
Honeydrop, honeydrop, come home
I can see your tired eyes
From a million miles away
The moon up in the heavens, precious siren
With your secret serenade
(REPEAT CHORUS) X2

Hey, don't start before I'm ready
Hold that ship girl, hold it steady
Cause we'll be sailing stormy weather
And hey, you, watch those words you're whispering
You never know who might listening
Let's keep things quiet 'till we reaching the sight of the shore
And I fall behind, the debris in a heat
Lie after lie, a real life... or this could be the end
Hey there, why do you look so tired?
Maybe I'm not what you desired
Because you know, I, I need you more than ever
Without you I don't feel too clever
We're goin' in circles girl and there ain't no sign of that sure
(REPEAT CHORUS)
|

12. |

|
Falling in slow motion, scattered down below
It lacks those real emotions, through this wicked inter glow
I will walk undaunted and hold my head up high
Tattered, torn and haunted, safe benath these city lights
Though the world may bring me down
I will persevere somehow
Yeah, the world may bring me down
But I will persevere somehow
Falling in slow motion, sense the strains of fear
Melting in the ocean, the green and blues that draws me near
Raindrops fall so sweetly, films in black and white
Then colours spread like wild fire, illuminates the darkest night
(REPEAT CHORUS) X2

Silent Night
02:55
|
|||
|
Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child, Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar, Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born, Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face. With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth, Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
