Massive Blur lyrics

Julie skips the light
Saves her cigarette
For later tonight
She grabs the hand of
Johnny's hip
She loves the way that they fit
They walk below the stars
Talk of dreams and traveling far
Steady in these streets of rage
They wander endlessly
In this blue sky night
The streets are lit
And their hearts beat tight
They're wandering through
The blue sky night

Love
Spreads like desire
Like a disease
All across my body
In my headaches everyday
For this lack of
Par-ti-cipation
In the other half
The talk it out and make it last-half
That's supposed to make up a good
Re-lation-ship
But this ship
It ain't going nowhere
This ship is
Docked-out
Parked-back
Stuck on this rock
With a hole in the bow
And she is breaking
Yes she's breaking

You told me
That you would love me forever
N' you told me
That you couldn't love anyone else
So you left me
To study in the country
Now I find
That you're just studying
Somebody else
N' for once in my life
I was loyal
For once in my life
I was strong
For once in my life
I was honest baby
N' for once in my life
I was wrong
But I'm not
I am not gonna try to save you
N' I'm not

Well it's all in the shoes
And the jeans
It's all in the walk and the thoughts
That move to your mouth from your dreams
N' it's all in the breeze
That cools your lungs
N' help you to see
Just how crazy
This whole world is
N' how important it all really is
Sing me a happy song
Yeah sing me a happy song
'Cause I am sick and tired
Of being sick and tired
Sing me a happy song

Hello daddy
Are you drunk again
I've been waiting on the back porch
Waiting to come in
N' good evening daddy
You are asleep again
Lying on the T.V. couch
With you eyes hid under
Your rim
(Chorus)
But you know that you can't
You can't fool me
I know that you still love me
N' I know that it ain't all of your fault
You're just a strong headed man
With a brittle-weak-heart

Well if there's a way
N' if there's something
That you want to hear me say
If there's a little hope
Somewhere inside you for us both
Would you please reconsider
This drastic means of giving in
To our givings
Would you please take my hand
N' help me understand
What the problem is
(Chorus)
I think we've got to
Look at each other with honest eyes
Got to tell each other how we feel

Trees that grow
against brick walls
Reach for freedom
Reach for sunlight
And stretch for certainty
In their lives
N' the slated sky
Grey with indecision
It wants to shine
It wants to cry
But it doesn't know the difference
It doesn't know the difference
It doesn't know the difference
N' neither do I
'Cause in a world like this
Dreamers are born everyday
In a world like this

Well you ask me
To sing you
A love song
N' I smile
I smile 'n say
Hold on
Let me think
That would be an old one
N' how strange
At twenty-one
Never even had one
How strange
I don't even know
Where to go and get one
How strange
How strange
A request for a love song
N' I don't even know how to sing one
Well hold one
I can't
Lie on that side
'Cause it just doesn't

I've got an idea
I got it in my hand
N' I'm gonna turn it around
Throw it up and down
'Cause it's an idea
It's gonna make you move
Closer
It's gonna make you wonder
Why you have waited so long
To take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Until I fall in love
Until I fall in love
You have got this edge
You've got it in your heart
N' my idea is to walk it

Well I've got ten friends
N' a run down car
I've got three old lovers
That I left at the bar
N' I've got two pairs of shoes
N' five pairs of jeans
Am I getting through
I think I'm falling in love with you
What a life
What a trip
I can't believe I'm making it fit
What a buzz
What a ride
Do you wanna jump inside
There's room for two
There is room
Well I've got ten friends

This world is not ours
As much as we'd like it to be
It is someone else's
Something bigger
Bigger than you and me
But it's brought us together
Today
So we should take this thing we got baby
For everything
Everything it has to say
N' make it good
Make it happen
Hold the hand of love
Make it perfect
For just a moment
'Cause that's the meaning
That's the meaning of love

There's a blue moon crying
In my heart tonight
But you look at me n' you smile
Sayin' everything
Everything's gonna be alright
(Be alright)
But there is a place in me
That I can't hide
N' you've gotta
Got to take a little deeper look inside me
Because my heart
My heart is stronger than you'll ever know
N' god damn you
If you make me let it go
Gonna let it go
Got to let it go

Well I'm sitting here
On this park bench
With the sun in my eyes
N' I touch the leaves
As they fall to my knees
N' I just wonder why
Now I'm walking along the lakeside
With the pavement pulling my stride
Look down
Think of turnin' around
Jesus it's no surprise
I wonder why well I wonder why
Now I'm following my footsteps back
To the place I already was
N' I taste my tears
