It Broke My Heart

Saw a man who was fifty-one
He bad married daughters and a single son
And hes lost his job as this years begun
And it broke my heart
Saw his wife who was fifty-two
She said she was sure they could make it through
That her single wage would just have to do
And it broke my heart
Talked about it with the family now
What began in sadness ended up a row
All the guys with the clever mouths
They were saying we should move south
Saw the son whos been gone two weeks
And hes down already with a job to seek
And hes in kings cross and theres no-one speaking
And it broke my heart.

Act Of Rememberence

Arms of steel, hair of gold
Royal blue eyes, with a rebel soul
You scared me, you still do
But I loved you
More than you ever knew
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Doctor's face, said the time had come
I stood up, and began to run
My boy's voice, called your name
You roared back and the silence came
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Drove my car, to your street
Hoped a ghost, I would meet
Well that ghost, he's moved on
But his anger, Dad is it gone?
Is the pain gone, is it all gone?
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance

That's When He Told Her

streetlight
yellow in the room
lifting out our futures from the gloom
same song
in the street below
football song that everybody knows
(chorus)thats when he told her
that he loved her
and hed love her all his life - 2x
bright lights
five years down the lane
point to where the just born babies cry
he knows now
they are joined for good
life could never break them
nothing could
(chorus 2x)
30 years pass like a sonic boom
sunlight floods into a different room
they both know theyre saying goodbye too soon

Burn Your Playhouse Down

I've got an achin' in my heart
Arson on my mind
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
I've got a badly broken heart
I've bad it from the start
You're giving me the run around
Now if you play with fire
It's a-sure to burn
I've beard this all of my life
Go on, be on your way, i've bad my say
Well honey, i'm through with you for life
You'll find i'm there's one in every yard
I'm getting mighty tired
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
Now don't pretend that this is the end
'cause this time we're really through
While you were runflin' 'round
Burning up the town
I was settin' a trap for you
I've got an achin' in my heart

Ghost Of Love

When you look in my eyes you know that I'm gonna lie.
But you look in my eyes for the ghost of love that died.
And when you see him you should believe him.
He won't deceive you. He's never Leavin'.
I used to feel the way he's feelin'.
Before I fell for you, I thought love was just a rage.
But we left the book of love, signed with blood on every page.
They say it makes you feel so alive,
but that's the biggest of all the lies.
For every stain, part of you dies.
So look into my eyes for the ghost of love that died.
I don't believe in second chance.
Coz that's not love, that's just romance.
And I know the endin' well in advance.
So look into my eyes for the ghost of love that died.

The First Attack

Since I started being impressed
By the things that move me all the treasures that I missed
Came back to stand around me
And as I curse the wasted time
I lift my head to say
Thank you God you gave the strength
That helped me walk away
All the fear and anger
Still stays within my heart
And I cant recall the last time
I imagined theyd depart
But this is what Im going to do
When they force me to doubt
Ill ask for what I know remains
To help me sing them out
As rays of sun shine through the clouds
To heat the soaking ground
So when we come to sing the shouts
Well burn the theatres down
Let every disbelieving sneer

The Joyful Kilmarnock Blues

Im not going to talk about doubts and confusion
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
Id never been to ayrshire
I hitched down one saturday
Sixty miles to kilmarnock
To see hibernian play
The day was bright and sunny
But the game I wont relay
And there was no kilmarnock bunnet
To make me want to stay
But Im not going to talk about it
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
When I started walking at wishaw
My eyes obscured my vision
After five miles on my way
I began to learn to listen
I walked through the country
I walked through the town
I held my head up
And I didnt look down

Oh Jean

Id never been lucky with girls I confess
Dont know who to blame for my lack of success
Cause even with ones up the back of a bus
There was always the risk of a slap in the puss
But jean, oh jean you lot me got lucky with you
The first time I met you it did cross my mind
The next time I saw you there wasnt the time
The third time I saw you I thought that I would
The fourth time I met you I knew that I would
But jean, you get let me get lucky with you
I love her
I want you forever I want you for good
So Im gonna treat you the way that I should
For your soul and body my hearts gonna pound
Even after the day that Im laid in the ground
Cause jean you let me get lucky with you
Love her I love her.

Teardrops

Teardrops running down your face
Teardrops running down your face
Diamonds of water, and salt from your body
Coming down to meet my kisses
Teardrops running down your face
Teardrops running down your face
Staining your skin and my skin and beginning
The stories that you cant begin
The way I feel could be despised but its a vision that I prize
Teardrops teardrops
Im not trying to make you feel pain
Or joy to make the tears flow
But when they roll unashamed - they move me so
Teardrops running down you, face
Teardrops running down you, face
Let me, let me brush them with my fingers
Comfort you and say its alright
Its so strong this way I feel sometimes I want to beg or steal
Teardrops teardrops.
