You turn me on, you lift me up
And like the sweetest cup I'd share with you
You lift me up, don't you ever stop, I'm here with you
Now it's all or nothing
'Cause you say you'll follow through
You follow me, and I, I, I follow you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?

I had a walk the other day
To meet someone I think you know
The air was cold
Skies were so grey
Somebody lay on the ground below
All For You
All For You
All For You

Sweetest angel came down
Took me by the hand
Said I've got things to offer you
Help you understand
If the bombs don't get you
I'll roll with you tonight
All these things inside your head
You've got to get it right

When my love said to me,
Meet me down by the gallow tree.
For it's sad news I bring,
About this old town and all that it's offering.
Some say troubles abound,
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down.
One day we'll return here,
When the Belfast Child sings again

Lyrics to Blood Diamonds :
I feel you
there's no need to serve
I hear you
from so far away
There's a town
that's beyond this place
And there's a space

Thank you for the voice, the eyes and the memories shine
Thank you for the pictures of living in the beautiful black and the white
Some say we'll be together for a very long time
Some say that our first impressions never will lie
I open up to take a look into the bright and shiny book
Into the open scheme of things
Book of brilliant things
Book of brilliant things

And now the sound of time is getting fast
It's getting late
Don't know if I can take much more
The way you talk I often wondered
If I heard the words somewhere
Someplace before
I got so nervous when I called
And found that lately

It's difficult to love you
When you do the things you do
Time and time again
And when I try to play it wrong
You turn from smooth
You play it rough once again
You make me cry
You make me cry again

She is benediction
She is addicted to thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with he
Here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
could it be he's taking over me...

It's all right.
It's all right.
Let me go high.
Let me go high.

Let me go high into a different world.
Let me go high into a different world.

sometime i can see the world
by staring through your dark and misty eyes
i dont want to hear the words
or anything you know you cant deny
everytime i feel myself rejected
disconnected, from everything thats real
everybody needs to feel respected
not disconnected

Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark

Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and

We go walking, hand in hand
All across the land it's East At Easter
People walking hand in hand
When ships are moving south it will be East at Easter
We will rock you, rock you little child
We will rock you, rock you little child
All across the land it's East At Easter
All across the land it's East At Easter

For your pleasure
In our present state
Part false, part true
Like anything
We present ourselves
The words we use
Tumble all over
Your shoulder

Cities, buildings falling down
Satellites come crashing down
I see them falling out the skies like eagles
All mirrored glass and shattered egos
But in a corner of the world we'd meet to laugh and drink and plan our sequels
'Cause in the alleyways and bars downtown
They're singing up from here to there can we go
This city comes alive at night, see these city walls are heaving

Full of doubt, took the easy way out
Always said they couldn't find their place
Among some real dark stuff, they got to thinking enough
Remember Halcyon Days
We'll spend our time with a bottle of wine
And a love that knows no human state
Never got to wake up early
Never got to feel so poorly

Shine on, shine the light on me,
In all of my life so that much more I see

In the light of his love, in the light of reflection
Oh what a world or sometimes oh so it seems
Eyes in the skies in that silver gift friendship
A glittering prize is it the prize of lost loves

God gave me travelling shoes, God gave me the wanderer's eye,
God gave me a few gold coins to help me to the other side.
Looked around and said: be careful how small things grow,
God gave me travelling shoes and I knew that it was time to go.

Sent in the ship at night to take me to the hidden port.
Found me the key at last to open up the prison door.
Brought down the blackbird's wings, gifted me with beggar's eyes.

I'm the shy boy, you're the coy boy
And you know I'm a Homosapien too
I'm the cruiser, you're the loser
Just me and you sir, I'm a Homosapien too

Homosuperior in my interior
But from the skin out, I'm a Homosapien too

I can feel the whole world spinning around
I'm losing ground
I feel it every day
I can feel You coming inside out
I'm losing touch with all reality

I remember the look in Your eyes
The way that they pulled me inside

Я чувствую, весь мир закружился
Почва уходит из-под ног
Я чувствую это ежедневно
И я могу почувствовать твое появление наоборот
Я теряю связь с реальностью
Я помню взгляд твоих глаз
И то, как я утонул в них
И все, что у меня есть в оправдание, это моя невиновность

In dreams, nothing says we're unable
In dreams, forever's never too long
Forever, forever, forever's never too long
I feel it on the west side, it's over there
The freeze hits on the east now, I feel it there
Outside things are hurting, they're closing in
There's no sign of any warning
I feel you and I know what I feel

Heavenly Ghost calling us out
Wishing they shout without
Sent in the end in heaven above
And kissing yourself goodbye
Messenger calls, calling us out
Stand over by my side
By myself beating you
Get over by my side

Did you ever see the sun rise up
Above this blackened hole
Did you ever feel that what you want's
Not under your control
Ever think that how you feel
Is not quite what you are
Some of us are satellites
Some are superstars

1982

Talking by the pool of light, language from America.
She puts on the film of him, king is white and in the crowd.
They are not a melting pot, say no, say no tapestry.
She puts on the film of him, king is white and in the crowd.

She takes his hand and she says you'll stay.

I’m in a golden temple,
in a bombed out street,
feel the rough and tumble
down where the borders meet.
I hear a sandstorm falling
down where the tears have dried
and there’s a west wind calling,
but I get no reply.

So let it all come, let it all come down
Let it all come, let it all come down
Sweet tears roll like a river from your eyes
Get close let's sleep tonight
When you wake there's a new day dawning
When you wake there's a cold wind blowing
When day breaks there's a light shines through

Time, way out of line
A whole nation waits outside
The rhythm of tomorrow
They can dance away their sorrows tonight
Lost, broken and scarred
Prisoner waits outside with his lone heart beating
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak

Secrets of lovers

Whisper tonight

Broken down angel

Got lost in the cold daylight

Life in a day
The price that you pay
For time that you spent
It's such a fatal event
Take a look at your watch
There is no time to wait
Take a look deep inside
There's no escape from this day

Light travels through the universe
It arrives, it remains
Things get better after things get worse
I feel the same, nothing's changed
Nothing's changed

Words unravel out of all of us
They arise, they refrain

In coats of many colour
Reptile man drop
Stay below it
Stay below it
Stay below it
Stay below it
Temperature drop

Magic

Now I believe in forces

I need the truth, the reason why
Was so amazed, such a lucky child
And then something died
Like everybody it hurt inside

It was 25 years they take that man away
Now the freedom moves in closer every day
Wipe the tears down from your saddened eyes
They say Mandela's free so step outside
Oh oh oh oh Mandela day
Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free

It was 25 years ago this very day

Have you been to the cumberland gap? Oh no.
Fix your eyes on the green of the map... Oh no.
Where the appalachians rise? Oh no.
Oh no.
Have you tasted the finest of trout? Oh no.
Have you slept in a log-burning house... Oh no.
With your feet flopping over the couch? Oh no.
Oh no.

Descended from a world of darkened places
Descended from a world that's lost control
Suspended between time and fractured places
I'm waiting for the fall here on my own

Please take me down where the rain drops
Please take me down, down below
Please hold me here where the dreams stop

New gold dream
She is the one in front of me, the siren and the ecstasy
New gold dream
Crashing beats and fantasy, setting sun in front of me
New gold dream
And the world goes hot
And the cities take
And the beat goes crashing

I see them walking
You know they're walking at night
Ohh in the dark you know
They're shining out so bright
Your sarky voices are gonna come on so near
As every picture becomes so clear

You

Somebody's screaming out
Somebody's knocking out
Somebody's calling out, come hear it again
Street bells are ringing out
Young girls are singing out
Boys are building up to be men
You've got the love
Then here comes the blood last

Black lines call out from his face
Oh his heart beats staccato pace
She says he's not killing time
I just don't want him for no friend of mine

Meanwhile Susan goes out all alone
So many reasons but they're not all her own
Bend till you break

Paula came from Washington with long golden hair
Twenty eight dollars in a fake silk purse and a leather skirt to wear
Shane came from Dublin town from the old world so green
Counterfeit ticket in to JFK in the land of his dreams
Street life's the only life they take a walk in the park
Even tough they only met that day they were lovers by dark
Laid out on the morning skies he puts a ring on her hand
He said listen babe we gotta take what's ours do it or die

Your love’s like faith,
Your love’s spite in your eyes from those battle days.
There’s still one way,
Abandoned now no matter what you say.
Just one truth,
Moving up to decide that’s your battle move,
No one’s here,
Some phantoms realised that’s your only fear.

Is this the age of the thunder and rage
Can you feel the ground move 'round your feet
If you take one step closer, it'll lead to another
The crossroad above is where we meet
I shout out for shelter, I need you for something
The whole world is out, they're all on the street
Control yourself, love is all you need
Control yourself, in your eyes

Summer's gone winter's in your eyes
I can feel the thunder storms inside
I wake every morning and the cold winds cover me
All I've got's a ghost of what could be
If you can see the lights shine in front of me
If you can see the lights shout out where you'll be

I'm in a broken dream I stare out into space

Summer's gone winter's in your eyes
I can feel the thunder storms inside
I wake every morning and the cold winds cover me
All I've got's a ghost of what could be
If you can see the lights shine in front of me
If you can see the lights shout out where you'll be

I'm in a broken dream I stare out into space

Put your hands on me
Rage will dissolve like the wind
One last moment
The days were closing in
The ray of light
Was faltering
Was no more sequence
No words could tell

Shadow let go
There's something you should know
I just found my new direction
And I hope you like the key
Like the air that led me to it
She's like the wind that sucked me through it

My allegation
It's alright
Slave nation
Alright
Want to tell ya
All is gone
You're a slave nation

Ruby says she does not dream
She says she's seen it all before
Outside the night is cold and wet
Don't know if we can take much more

Is there someone?
Someone?

Stay, Im burning slow
With me in the rain, walking in the soft rain
Calling out my name
See me burning slow

Brilliant days, wake up on brilliant days
Shadows of brilliant ways will change all the time
Memories, burning gold memories

She don't need no rocket ship (rocket ship rocket ship)
Just close her eyes and takes a trip
Baby's big on aviation (aviation aviation)
Baby loves a levitation (levitation)
Yes shes a spaceface going round
Shes never coming down (coming down coming down)
My little spaceface floating round
Shes never coming down (coming down)

I couldn't sleep a wink last night
I'd love to hold on
Love to see the fires in motion
Love to feel a free world turn tonight

Run till we come, until we be
Speed your love to me
Run till we come, until we be

You know my heart beats rhythm and my dreams still take me higher
I've travelled round the world but they can't cure my desire

The city looks pretty tonight
Hold on now let's go till morning

Get up on love and stand by me
Stand by love, stand by me

I'm the one who broke apart, I'm the one that's free
I'm the one who fell apart, yeah I'm the one, that's me
I'm the one who fell away, the one who didn't care
There is a long trail stretching now from here to there

Stars will lead the way, stars will light the sky
Stars will fall through now for you and I
From the darkest days to the darkest side

Stay Visible

Written by Charlie Burchill, Jim Kerr, Jeremy Coad

The road opens wide
There's space here for two of us
If I could slip under the wire
Wed wait here, just stay here a while

Shout, shout aloud
I still can't get enough
Lover, I got sugar on the brain
These sun sets so fine, drink the heavy wine
Lover never did the sugar thing
So shout it out
Tell me it now
I need to know you wanna do those things

Here comes summer, here comes rain
Here comes all those mysteries, make me born again
Here comes lightning now, I like the way it shoots
Here comes all those mysteries taking me to my roots
And when the sun rises again
Into the fields I wake up
Into my dreams I descend
Where it's all so real

We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

Take off those headphones and let this world pour into you
Throw off those glasses and then you'll start seeing
Forget those battles, those ones that mean nothing to you
Know you're alive and just smile, you'll start hearing
Somewhere out beneath the heavens and the atmosphere
Somewhere out among the silence there's a voice
There's a feeling that takes over and it has no fear
When you're caught between the signal and the noise

Although every building's standing tall
I look for you as something that much greater
I searched thru my religion, in the hope that something could entice
I dreamed of crossing bridges, mountain ridges, from the pole to the Equator
But then I saw you skating by, I was underneath the ice

Underneath the ice, Underneath the ice
Was underneath the ice, Underneath the ice

Up on the catwalk, a big wheel is spinning
And Dollars to Deutchmarks, and pennies from heaven
And up on the catwalk, there's one hundred million
With letters from thousands that say ``Just who are you?''
There's one thousand names that can spring up in my mind
But you'd call it blackmail and that's just not my kind
And up on the catwalk, up on the catwalk
And I don't know why

Utopia, utopia
Couldn't take it, last song
Had to listen, I put it on
Body trembled, needle fell
Music played somewhere else
High above the air is fading
Utopia, welcoming me
Did you see the light show?

What will you do when there's so much to lose
But you won't pay the price to go on?
And where will you stand when there's no helping hand
Or no road to deter right from wrong
What good can it bring to ignore suffering
To shut out all the reason inside?
From life ordinary to the heights, they get scary
No reason it can't be denied

See the white clouds roll in
Spirits lying next to me
Catch the wildflower falling
It's the wound that never bleeds
Hear the Sirens calling
Spinning out their show
Hold, the moment close to me
Take it down too slow

Spirit of girl I know's in front of me
I brought her home it's where she'd want to be
Picture of some strange tattooed bird on her thigh
Shine on walk on take a walk with me

Something going I can tell
The way you know it's meant to be
There's something taking all your life
