The Only Way
Calm down now baby
The end of the journeys in sight
Youve travelled so far love
Now all of the stars are aligned
Say goodbye (I dont want to)
Dont you fight (I dont want to)
Leaving your lifes no easy ride
All the grief you gave
All the love you made
All your yesterdays
Everything you were
Will fade
This is the only way
All the things you thought
you came here for
Everything you thought
you knew for sure
No meandering
No more wondering
Everything is true
All the things you thought you had to say
Everyone you left along the way
So you gather how
Nothing matters now that your time is through
This is the only way
Hearts A Mess
Pick apart
The pieces of your heart
And let me peer inside
Let me in
Where only your thoughts have been
Let me occupy your mind
As you do mine
You have lost
Too much love
To fear, doubt and distrust
(Its not enough)
You just threw away the key
To your heart
You dont get burned
(Cause nothing gets through)
It makes it easier
(Easier on you)
But that much more difficult for me
To make you see
Love aint fair
So there you are
My love
Your hearts a mess
You wont admit to it
It makes no sense
But Im desperate to connect
And you, you cant live like this
Love aint safe
You wont get hurt if you stay chaste
So you can wait
But I dont wanna waste my love
Coming Back
Youve been gone much longer
Than you ever said you had the plan to
Im just gonna wait till you come home
Though I count the days, theyre
grey without you
The weathers much better
when I think about you
Im just gonna wait till you come home
Empty glasses, burnt out matches
Curtains drawn on near-full blackness
Im sleeping through the day
Youre coming home
To reclaim this heart you owned
Lover
Leave me
Make me burn
Youre coming back!
Youre coming back!
Ill wait patiently
For your return
Youre coming back!
Youre coming back!
Im clutching at straws
Im climbing up the walls
But every time I fall
Back into my hole
Im feeling like a wretch
Im looking for a catch
But youre an itch that I cant scratch
I know youre coming back
Youve been gone so long youre fading
And it takes all the time
I can find just retaining
Thoughts of things we did
while you were here
But I know you will return my dear
Thanks For Your Time
You have been placed in a queue
But your call is valuable
Its very valuable
We hope this doesnt inconvenience you
Because youre valuable
Youre so very valuable!
If you wish to make a complaint
We can handle it, were well prepared
to handle it
Of course you may have to wait
But thats understandable
Isnt that understandable?
Dont ask me, I just work here man
Dont ask me, I just work here man
(It sounds to me like you need help!)
Were very good to you
I hope you know were good to you
(Let me put you through to someone else)
Theyll know just what to do!
Im sorry, I cant help you
Dont ask me, I just work here man
Why dont you fill out a form?
We cant get back to you
Of course we cant get back to you
But rest assured, well take your
comments on board
Your thoughts make change!
Thanks for your time
(Dont ask me, I just work here man)
Thanks for your time
(Dont ask me, I just work here man)
Thanks for your time
(Dont ask me, I just work here man)
Thanks for your time
lets spend some time together
Well save you money!

If yer always tryin to get to the top
You dont get to the bottom of nothin!
Then youre gone before you know it;
Youd better stop! (STOP!)
Learn a little givin and lovin
Its been done before
Cmon, do it again!
Coz if its good
Then you should share it round
Whats the use of keeping
all the good things that youve found to yourself?
Learn a little, learn a little
Learn a little givin
Learn a little, learn a little
Learn a little givin and lovin
You dont gotta keep no other man down
For you to get up
Theres no need to worry
Just dont give away your self-respect
Coz if its all youve got left
The rest dont really matter now
anyway honey!
But give away love (GIVE IT!)
And give it for free
No strings attached
Just dont ask for it back
Learn a little, learn a little
Learn a little givin
Learn a little, learn a little
Learn a little givin and stop!
Givin! Learn a little givin
Its been done before
Cmon do it again!
Learn a little, learn a little
Learn a little givin and lovin
Puzzle With A Piece Missing
Tiny pieces come to me every day
Still I wait
Things are falling into place
But so much time goes to waste
I stretch and shift
These parts wont fit
I can chop and change all I like
Rearranging this wont make it right
All doors are open.
All the doors are open.

The Only Thing I Know
Im living with your memory
In the attic in my mind
And youve been getting by without me
But Ive been spending all my time
With a girl that I remember
Wholl never leave or need to grow
Cos when you left you left your memory
Now its the only thing I know
When the past gives me no comfort
And though the future is the cost
The way Im choosing to remember
Ill forever be the man I never was
And you, you fade
But the memory remains the same
And I, I cant change
And I think that living with your memory
Is slowly driving me insane
You are perfect but youre empty
And it gets so lonely in my mind
Cos your image in my memorys
The only shred of you thats left behind
You were real but then you left me
And thats the part I cant accept
So Ill keep on living with your memory
Because its all that Ive got left
Night Drive
When youre feeling down
Im comin round
To pick you up
And take you out
It wont be long
Till those blues are gone
The citys waiting
Beckoning for us
It leads us on
Let it lead us on
Its the perfect night
To just drive on by
Let the dashboard underscore
Everything weve seen
While the world plays for our pleasure
On our windshield silver screen
And I dont know just where were going
And I dont care where weve been
But we just coast on through
Coz while Im here with you, you know
Theres no place Id rather be
No place Id rather be
Such a quiet joy
Knowing that Im your pick-up fix
And youre my favourite boy
Youre feeling tired
And Im bleary-eyed
And the highway lines
Pass by in two/four double-time
And we dont even recognise
A single name on the street signs
Nothing else is calling us
But all weve left behind
Is like a hell-hound on our trail
and a burden on our mind
Coz we know
we gotta go home.
Such a quiet joy
Driving anywhere
Knowing that you are there.
But you dont call,
You dont call me no more
And i waited all day
You know youll always
Be my favourite boy
Worn Out Blues
There were days when I would say:
I could give you everything
And I truly believed that I could
But now Im worn out
Worn out
Like Drawing Blood
The Only Way
Hearts A Mess

Thanks For Your Time
