Cobblestones 04:00
i’ll wash your limbs in the icy stream of my laughter as flightless birds we tremble upon the hot embers i came to this place just to open my wings to the winter but the light bursts from our mouths like some kind of poisoned water don’t go running on cobblestones come back and see me sometime you keep growing sadder keep going backwards keep on closing your eyes like a newborn baby blindly stumbling out into the rain you didn’t realise that you wouldn’t be allowed inside again the breeze of early morning slips its rings once more round your fingers now you wait filled with hate just to try to find a feeling that lingers don’t go running on cobblestones come back and see me sometime you keep growing sadder keep going backwards keep on closing your eyes

every morning i’m chasing rainbows get to the bottom see what it shows got to the bottom where the butterflies glow ain’t no escape from your to and fro, you know your’re not the only one take me places where i never been before then lock them away behind your wall you know i got the window but you got my view ‘cos i wanna see what a view with you can do you’re not the only one every morning i’m chasing rainbows get to the bottom see what it shows got to the bottom where the butterflies glow ain’t no escape from your to and fro, you know your’re not the only one

i hardly slept a wink last night barely even closed my eyes at all but i dreamed that you were there with me dead fish on the surface by the shore what was so hard to find is easy enough to lose i got so far behind that the disappointment bruised you too another invitation here seemed to be sent right through time i cant believe you want me there i just don’t know what goes on in your mind what was so hard to find is easy enough to lose i got so far behind that the disapointment bruised you too

Sun Gate 03:32
the sun gate is always in the right place

weather will break today rain’s gonna wash it all away bring in the sheets it’s clouding over dragging the dream over my shoulder water will come and soak you dressed up as a tear that nearly choked you flow like a stream as it gets colder been looking for light over your shoulder

Outline 02:42

hope i die laughing cos i slept through the day i was born think it was a tuesday but you know i can never be sure spring breathes deeply breathes all the children back to life mothers left weeping ‘cos they know just as you know nobody survives when you’re playing with your lovers heart its like pulling small animals apart so you whisper into your lovers ear so glad you’re here just like ships, guess we must ride with the tide like the substitute i am, i wait until you need me if my hands weren’t tied, i’d be by your side, but you’d have someone else in mind, someone else in mind who you’ll find in the little bit of kind of thought that you’d never be listening and silence seems to be breaking the clean the clean of the air which stops me from breathing when you’re playing with your lovers heart its like pulling small animals apart so you whisper into your lovers ear so glad you’re here

look how close they come to you an intelligent distance to the door see the leaves sailing on the breeze in an autumn flight right to the floor despite ourselves we go to them to spite ourselves again despite it all we live with it it’s an autumn flight right to the end

So Far Away 03:54
sometimes i get so tired wanna’ take my muscles out lay them on the side next to you and trains won’t bring you back to me planes been grounded to save the trees and all that means is that i am so far away from you today sometimes i look so hard wanna’ take my eyes out rest them on the side next to you and trains won’t bring you back to me birds are grounded to save disease and all that means is that i am so far away from you today

Black Ice 06:02
late night lightening strike hard returning the keys of a rented car watching the tv catching the times we’re expecting delays because black ice covered the runway i cannot lift you to the sky there’s a passionate feeling somewhere here it’s an estimated boredom that slipped right through the years it’s a common example of the things we do to test each other oh you keep your distance dear black ice covered your lifeline i cannot lift you to the sky see the patterns form around your feet i expected so much more from you you got what you wanted back when i started falling apart black ice covered your lifetime you slip and you always seem to slide

April Eyes 06:04
the things you make me do make it hard to fit the feelings to the shapes you move it’s a shame the time it takes to get things through all because the love you needed was the love you’ll lose you’ll lose when the sun it rains i get the feeling that i can fly but the rain it stays as close as your april eyes the times i been myself make it hard to be the me delivering the wealth it’s a shame the cards you feel that we been dealt are the same cards here lying on my shelf when the sun it rains i get the feeling that i can fly and the rain it stays as close as your april eyes when the moon it breaks it’s like a ray down from the sky and i’m closer to wanna stay here all night as a matter of fact the wheel still turns and the sun still shines so bright that it burns well now i’m ok and i’m alright i’m just blinded by the moonlight when the sun it rains i get the feeling that i can fly and the rain it stays as close as your april eyes when the moon it breaks it’s like a ray down from the sky and i’m closer to wanna stay here all night
