The EP's 92-94 lyrics
Birds Without Wings lyrics
wishing that something would happen
a change in this place
'cos I'm tearing off the fancy wrapping
find an empty package
take for a while
your trumpet from your lip
loosen your hold loosen your grip
on your old ways
that have fallen out of step
in a changing time
hoist a new flag
hoist a new flag
angry sun burn down
judging us all
guilty of neglect and disrespect
L's Song lyrics
I love your nervous fingers
Won't you fumble all night long
But in the morning they are stingers
To rise and stumble on
Down the crooked pavement
The wind rolls my thoughts like a leaf
The brill bell chimes
And fortune smiles with its broken teeth
And the many rivers run
Grateful for the rain
I'd be grateful for one morsel
Of your loving again
Summer, restless summer
Won't let sleeping dogs lay
The Light lyrics
You turn out the light
and the dark sucks on the embers of the fire
that shoulders in the night
and these tumbling boulders of desire
come rolling off the shadows of me
You say I thought time was meant to take away the hurtin'
as your lonely silhouette closes the curtain
back on the road destination uncertain
so lets get in this car and drive
and this feeling I feel so strong
Shine lyrics
I can see it in your eyes
what I know in my heart is true
that our love it has faded
like the summer run through
so we'll walk down the shoreline
one last time together
feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts
like a feather
but who knows what's waiting
in the wings of time
dry your eyes
we gotta go where we can shine
Don't be hiding in sorrow
or clinging to the past
Brick Walls lyrics
I just don't care
Don't care at all
I've banged my head too long
On these brick walls
Every seed I sow
Shudders and falls
Perishes betweens
Ah these brick walls
And I feel like the last hair
On a head gone bald
Not much point being there
No point at all
How many more years?
Years 'till they fall
On the blind eyes
And deaf ears
And these brick walls
These brick walls
These brick walls
The Rice lyrics
The draft's blue cold
Under the door
When we threw our clothes
To the kitchen floor
The broccoli balls
In a pan on the gas stove
Where you stand
Won't you take this
Spatula in your hand
Let the rice burn
It cannot determine love
For you
We have no concern
Under the hem of the night
Out on the roof
Over harbored streets
Where the sky's a blanket
Each sweet kiss
So melodramatic
Wisdom lyrics
time no good
wisdom no good
patience no good
to me anymore
now night has fallen on the stair
some things you do you can never repair
seems I'm always pretending
things aren't there when they are
and the leaves are nearly off the trees
and the traffic's thick past yellow windows
and I'm lost inside the frozen headlights
thinking of you
time no good
wisdom no good
Lovers lyrics
We are lovers girl
Me and you
White faced lovers girl
You know that its true
We got through the winter time
'Till the spring sun starts to grow
I'm your white faced lover girl
Oh, don't you know
You're so warm with me
I never feel the cold
What have you done with me?
I've never felt so old
We got through the orange summer
Stood and watched the red leaves fall
Maybe by next summer time
4AM lyrics
Four o'clock in the morning
Born on the sea
The night is rattling
With burglar alarm oh yeah
The night explode
The night explode
Flower by your window side
Autumn is graceful
Unladen with memory
And the wonders die
Seven o'clock in the evening
Watching TV show
Kissing your dark hair
Its your head against the sunset
And the harbor below
It's the cruelest thing
The cruelest thing
Coming Down lyrics
Tears falling slow
from the bridge
into the river below
in your eyes, I start to see
a starry veil,
the ocean of infinity
Moon and stars above me
mingle with the blood
inside my vein
these empty arms
that should be
holding you close
through nights of winter rain
I'm trying to spell
what only the wind can explain
it's colder than ever
coming down
I'm drowning in shallows
