Learning How To Love

Creeping through your bedroom door
Just after all the lights go out
Feeling the warmth of your body
And the sweetness of your mouth
Set the alarm again for 5 am
Uneasy sleep will soon be following
Creeping back to my own bed again
I will see you in our uneasy morning
Chorus
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learn how to love
Sitting down at breakfast time
A silence always fills the air
Many things that should be said
Are ending in a vacant stare
And they know just what is going on
But make us feel like we are criminals
Our only wish is learning how to love

Last Supper

This is our last supper together
The last time we share in this intimacy
We have created a suffering circle that threatens to
Tighten and destroy you and me
Yesterday I flicked through the snapshots we
Kept to remember the tender times
Each little picture and each little memory should bring back a smile
But now brings back a tear of regret
Chorus
Letting go is so hard
Letting go is so hard
So let us love tonight, thinking now of our greatest moments before we
Release from this death in life drink the wine and take my hand
Is it a crime to live this lie?
I know that we will never share, share this love again
But we both must be starting again, each one of
Us too strong in these chains to remain
This tug of war has weakened our purpose and
Pulled us apart from beginning to end

Back In Your Life

Soon the warm night breezes roll on in
A steamy blanket for the shore
This is streetlight time
You said you were mine
So the fool believes
What the night conceives
The light of love is in your eyes
Is in your smile again
Is in your life again
Was a time when love grew cold for you
Turned your back on memories
I was there for you
I will see you through
Darkest hours fade
The promises we made
Were not the kind to fade away
Well face another day
Well face another day
When that was yesterday
Will the ocean rollers bring you home

Elegy

Please dont look at me this way
I am from the same seed as you
Take me back to the womb
I am weary of this life
Dont believe in my eyes
Dont believe in my mind
Dont believe in right or wrong
Dont believe in cruel or kind
But all this talk is only poetry
Only as true as we would believe
We must live to fight the negative
Not to court the self in defeat oh oh oh oh
In defeat oh oh oh oh
Oh the pain of life is sweet
Is it wrong to long for death?
Must I cling to the thrills of life
Ash to ash and dust to dust
But all this talk is only poetry
Only as true as we would believe
We must live to fight the negative

Like To Get To Know You Well

Like to get to know you well
Like to get to know you well
Like to get to know you well
So we can be one
We can be one together
Repeat chorus
Together we can cast away the fear
Together we can wipe away the tear
Together we can strip down the barriers
And be one
Dont wanna talk about the weather
Dont wanna talk about the news
Just wanna get to the real you inside
Repeat chorus
Dont you think now is the time
We should be feelin
Just wanna simply say
Wont let you slip away
People wanna talk about the future
Dont wanna linger on the past

Will You Still Be There?

How many lives have been shaken
Cos a few simple actions were not taken
There will be a time, time for the next world
Cant let the feelings be left unsaid
Chorus
Will you still be there when the night comes
The glorys over and the chill comes
When the night comes, will you still be there
Will you still be there when the night comes
Will you still be there?
When the world seems to fall apart for us
When all the hope has turned to desperation
How can we torture, torture the ones that we love
Cant let the feelings be left unsaid
How many hearts have been broken
How many have been broken in two
Cos a few simple words had not been spoken
Not been spoken, no, no, no
Theres a need to know that were wanted
That were wanted yeah, yeah, yeah

Dreamin On

I dont know but Ive been told
Theres a place where dreams are bought and sold
Id like to steal me a dream with you
Together we can sail the oceans blue
Do you feel like I do?
Dont get me wrong
But I need your love
And I feel like dreaming on
But I wake to find you gone
Hope you like the things I say
I look forward to the day
When I can take you into my life
One day you just might say youll be my wife
And I dont want to push
I dont want to rush you
But I need your love
And I feel like dreaming on
But I wake to find you gone
And I feel like dreaming ...
Throw this caution to the wind

All I Want

Ride the wild one cowboy in the rodeo
Love like crazy juliet and romeo
Living only to consume
Bruising hearts collecting gloom
Seems no place to hide away
From the hammer and caress
Dress with passion
Fashion for the parking lot
Make some action
Pushing time out of the clock
Take away identity
Parcel up whats left of me
Water down the youthful drop
Call the sane insanity
All I want is to live with you
All I want is to cry with you
Dance til sunrise
Reggae til the cows come home
Fight the bigot
Champion youre not alone

The Prisoner

You have watched me, safe in your anonymity
I have dreamed you, held in your security
Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul
Your eyes were the camera and youve take hold
And you captured me
I need you to take control
I am a prisoner of no confidence
Youve entered me now make me whole
Every place I go I feel your lenses trained on me
This distant concentration takes away my energy
Your image burns its negative
Behind my waking eyes
Then the night comes and you stalk your prize
And you captured me
I need you to take control
I am a prisoner of no confidence
Youve entered me now make me whole
Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul
Your eyes were the camera and youve taken hold
And you captured me

Dont Always Look At The Rain

Some people I know have given up on their lives
Drowning their sorrows, and mumblin, and forgot the fight
We can tip the balance we can break those barriers down
Little things count as much as the big and turn it all around
And its oh, dont always look at the rain
No, dont look at the rain
Some people I know have lost their feel for mystery
They say everything has got to be proved, this isnt a nursery
And joseph whos five years old, stops fights in his playground yard
No more fights and bigotry, oh is it so hard
And its oh, dont always look at the rain
No, dont always look at the rain
Ha, dont always look at the rain
And tell me, is it a crime to have an ideal or two
Evolving takes its time, we cant do it all in one go
Doesnt have to drive us all mad, we can only do our best
Let the mind shut up, and the heart do the rest
