It Starts with the Soul : 2018

By the way there's a weight hanging down on my soul
By the way there's an end and it starts with the goal
Back on the road

There's no way here
No way back on the road
There's no way down
No way for the soul
Back on the road

By the way I will follow the river
Round the bend until the end of my tether
Until the pain
And the shame
And the guilt
They disappear

Can we apologise?  No
Can we theorise?  No
Can we analyse?  No
Can we socialise? No

By the way there's a door at the end of the bar
By the way its been bricked up a long time ago
By the way there's a gate at the end of the yard
By the way it's been chained up a long time ago

Back on you feet
One more time
Back on the road
One more time

Can we apologise?  No
Can we sympathise? No
Can realize? No
Can we change our lives?  No
Can we ostracise?  No
Can we civilise?  No
Can I see your eyes? No
Can we analyse? No

By the way there's a door near the end of the bar
By the way there's an end and it starts with the soul

Trains

Through the window by your bed
Hear the trains leaving London
I made a daisy chain for you
All the way to Londom

Angel
Angel

And the visitors come to go
Even your first love came to show
They can see the trains leaving London
From the windows that don't open

Angel
Angel

Kind of peaceful this fascination
For the trains and the station
You're so brave and you don't want more
As the train's leaving London
Leaving London
Leaving London

Folly

There's no lady in the lake
No piano in this place
No robin to sing
Or hear the violins

Don't blame me
Have mercy on me
We were foolish
It was folly

I see the man in the moon
He's building houses up there soon
For Noah and  the ark
Farewell planet Earth

Here we go
Two by two
We were foolish
It was folly


My Dream's In My Pocket

Nobody here plays my game
Everybody here they play your game

My dream's in my pocket
I guess it will stay there
People say forget  it
You'll never get it

All around the world
They do what you say
All around the town
They see what you see

My dream's in my pocket
My dream's in my pocket

Nobody here can lose what I could lose
Nobody here can see what I see
My dream's in my pocket
Well I guess it will stay there
People say forget it
But I'd regret it
If I forget it
I'd never get it

My dream's in my pocket
My dream's in my pocket
My dream's in my pocket

One Fine Day

You can't buy love
You can't buy time
You can't buy anything
That you want

Find your way across the sea
Looking back across the land

Very strange
Love is wrong
It can't buy anything
And you want more

One fine day
I'll find my way
One fine day
I'll be me

You cant find hope
Or hold my hand
In another world
They'd understand

One fine day
I'll find my way
One fine day
I'll be me

One fine day
I'll find my
One fine day
I'll be free

Iago's Light

And all the world is like a stage
Iago came and took your breath away
Please don't believe a single word he says
Iago's light was darkness in his head

The stage is set in the market and the stalls
Up in the Gods Iago plays them all
There was no reason no reason at all
For the mischief that led to the fall

Understand he'll never show his hand
Understand he'll never show his hand

And all the world is like a stage
Iago came and took your breath away
Please don't believe a single word he says
Iago's light was darkness in his head
Iago's light was darkness instead

The Middle Of The Morning

I lie awake in the morning
I see the day come
Before the bells in the morning
Before the sun comes shining
Unwinding

Little me in the morning
Watching the time
Dawn chorus so early
My favourite sound
Through the window
In the morning

I'm good in the morning
Before it all goes wrong
Before the memories start forming
They'll hide in the sunlight
Finding
I find them defining

Pen to paper in the morning
Brilliant thoughts
Just to exist is amazing
Before the fear comes falling
By the middle of the morning

Show The Summer To The Spring

Climb out of the river
When you feel her forgive you
Down the road to oblivion
Feel the sun shine

You, you mean everything
You make the whole world sing
With the love that you bring

I took my time back to this old town
I saw your shadow on the wall here
I made my way to the riverside
Saw the bridge where you stood

You, you mean every thing
You make whole world sing
With the love that you bring
You, you mean everything
You make the songbird sing
You bring Summer to the Spring

You, you mean everything
You make the whole world sing
With the love that you bring
You, you mean everything
You make the blackbird sing
You show the Summer to the Spring

The Radio Of Love

Rosie went away on the midnight train
And then she went away again
Rosie threw the dice and she did it right
When she looked into her lovers eyes

Rosie's going to play a love song
Rosie's going to play it all night long

Rosie saw the sun on the distant mountain
And she said 'I want to go there'
Rosie saw the seagull in the sky
She heard the skylark singing high

Rosie put it all in a love song
Rosie put it in a beautiful love song

I heard it on the radio of love
I heard it on the radio of love
Heard it on the radio of love

Rosie had a car but she drove it badly
Well you know she never did like it here Oh no
Rosie had love but it never lasted
She said she was free
Well that's not true anymore

Rosie got caught in cage
Rosie was blinded with rage
Rosie Rosie Ooooh
Rosie Rosie Ooooh

Rosie was dream I think I had well I'd better wake up
Well no I better not
I cannot
When Rosie saw the sun on the beautiful tree it was then she said
'Will you marry me'
I said yes

Rosie put it all in a love song
Rosie put it all in a beautiful love song
