Lyrics

This city makes me cry
I wear a shirt and tie oh why oh why
This city makes me close up think of
Nothing else but me and yes myself and I oh my oh my
There’s something very wrong with that

And I’m drunk on the tube
Drunk missing you

Got to write this down before I
Get to kentish town cos that’s where I
Fall asleep, get mugged and
Wake up far away from home
Far away from home

This city makes me high
It helps to make me live before I die
But sometimes I just close up think of
Nothing else but me and those with whom I spend my time oh my oh my
There’s nothing very wrong with that

And I’m drunk on the tube
Drunk missing you

Got to write this down before I
Get to kentish town cos that’s where I… Read the rest

Inside My Mind

Lyrics

To pass the time away
I wrote stuff down and found I had a lot to say
So pack my blues away
Leave for me to find again another day

Another day
Inside my mind
And inside my mind
There’s only you

So easy does it now
To let it go is maybe what it’s about
And put your worries down
Leave them there til morning turns it all around

Another day
Inside my mind
And inside my mind
There’s only you
Only you
Only you
Inside my mind

And inside my mind
There’s only you… Read the rest

Ferris Wheel

Lyrics

Crisis talks on the ferris wheel
It was the only place I know
She would listen with nowhere to go

And all the while the sun is low
And before you know
It was all too much to take

Sky through the trees
Eyelash in her eye
She never look more beautiful than when she’s mad at me

What about all you said
We go round again
And no that thing I did
We go round again and again
Until it seems that all is said and all is done
What a way to spend the day

Still talking on the ferris wheel
Digging up the bones in the graves of the ghosts of christmas past
Oh no
Oh no
And leaving that aside
This could change my life
You better believe that I will hold you to this

Sky through the trees
Eyelash in her eye
She never … Read the rest

Eyes

Lyrics

You notice only butterflies
Playing in blue skies
I wish I could see it all through your eyes

Green grass and open doors
And no one lies
I wish I could see with one of your eyes

So say your goodbyes
To one of your eyes
So gimme gimme gimme gimme that eye
I wanna see
I wanna see what you see

You notice only baby smiles in sunshine
It’s no surprise
That I’m gonna need one of your eyes

Green grass and open doors
Clean floors
And no one dies
That’s why I need one of your eyes

So say your goodbyes
To either one of your eyes
So gimme gimme gimme gimme that eye
I wanna see
I wanna see what you see

So say your goodbyes
To one of your eyes
So gimme gimme gimme gimme that eye
I wanna see
I wanna see what you … Read the rest
