I stole a life
With braids of fire
And it rained on my house all summer
There never was any freedom here
All I feared the most
Came back around
And it rain on my house
And it rained on my house all summer
. . .

Couldn't leave you if I tried
Couldn't weather this alone
And through the darkness you still provide
The sweetest love I've ever known
Take the shadow from the road I walk upon
Be my sunshine, sunshine
And in the emptiness
You look and find someone
The damage is undone
And love has made you strong
Heaven gave me mine
Thalheim
The saddest words have come undone
Changing the very air I breathe
And miracles have just begun
In which only you and I believe
Take the shadow from the road I walk upon
Be my sunshine, sunshine
And in the weightlessness
You look and find someone
The damage is undone
And love has made you strong
Heaven gave me mine
Thalheim
When I'm all the sea
You never let me down
I'll just keep coming back to you
‘Til I walk on solid ground
From the foothills to the mountains
On the waters of the Rhine
Face to face in Shahbagh gardens
In communion, out of time
Thalheim
From the lilies of the valley
To the grapes upon the vine
The well of speculation
Is it his or hers or mine ?
Thalheim
In the everything and nothing
In disharmony and rhyme
In the sound of shot and echo
Who's the victim, what's the crime ?
What's the crime ?
Be my, be my sunshine
In the keening cries of evening
Unforgotten, underlined
We slipped into the water
Out of focus, out of time
. . .

Welcome to Sun State
The language of light
The energy's impulse
The loud, dark, iron
The purpose of history
The Eurasian Steppes
From threshold to threshold
Astonishment
You've misunderstood the place where you stand
God Man
From different maps
Dead bees on a cake
You're sweeping the forest
Man, it's getting late
The milkweed is growing
Through cotton grass
You borrowed the car
But you didn't ask
You've misunderstood the place where you stand
God Man
Then everything's dark
You're wrapped up
Born into brightness
You've misunderstood the place where you stand
. . .

It's later than I thought it was
The shadows long and lost
Circle through the room
Swear as I met your mother there
In New Orleans
The sun was slipping into blue
The longest day is over
The longest day
My alphabet angel's come out to play
. . .

She's here in the snowfall
At dead of night
The mood is of courtship
The final fight
She's all that I need
All that I am
The voice of compassion inside the man
If you open the gates
The madness begins
I'll follow you down
I'll follow you back in
She's here in the lifelines
In every curve
Suspended in silence
Between each word
It's all in the way that she moves
The grace and the light that will see me through
It's coming true
She's prising the rope from my hands
The fear and the hopes that I held onto
It's coming true
Colour the river I swim back to you
Krishna blue
Waist deep in water
She starts to sing
The voice is familiar
And draws me in
She's lighting the fires
I dowsed by hand
Erasing the figure drawn in sand
You open the gates
The madness begins
I follow you down
I follow you back in
And here in the darkness
The boundary gone
The flame is alive
And burning strong
It's all in the way that she moves
The grace and the light that will see me through
It's coming true
Colour the river I swim back to you
Krishna blue
In the softest belly
And the warmest heart
In your open hands
I lay my head
In the never ending
I fall apart
In the silent forest
And the brilliant red
And through the stream of words
There comes a sound
And I listen
Child like
To her voice
Spellbound
It's all in the way that she moves
The grace and the light that will see me through
It's coming true
She's prising the rope from my hands
The fear and the hopes that I held onto
It's coming true
Colour the river I swim back to you
Krishna blue

Take my word for it this never should've happened
What in the world do you think got into me?
We fire at will and as we watch the pieces shatter
We find we're closer than we've ever been
She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened to
And in the blindness as my world stops turning
There's a sadness like I never knew
But I still see the shining of things
As the morning breaks it hardly seems to matter
I hear a shallowness in everything I say
We've played the night out in all too familiar fashion
To wear the heartache through another day
She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened to
And there's a stillness now the rain stopped falling
There's a sadness like I never knew
But I see the shining of things
. . .

They fired off the first shot
So we're on our feet and running
We're re-writing all the text books
In the process of becoming
We've so much to live for
If we stop putting up a fight
There's a place for every story
And this one starts with us tonight
Let me take you down
To Café Europa
There's so much to be found
So much to discover
Let me take you down
To Café Europa
There's so much to be found
I won't let you down
We're travelling by moonlight
From London to the Highlands
We lose ourselves in inner cities
In the hope of re-defining
The space that surrounds us
Or the emptiness within
It's all in the papers
The boy's in love again
Always arriving
Headlights lit up from coast to coast
Empty days, full to bursting
With the names of the people and places we miss the most
I'm taking the last train
Flying the last flight
Calling on the angels
They're letting in the sunlight
Let me take you down
To Café Europa
There's so much to be found
I won't let you down
It's the heart that has been broken
Finds the truth in what is spoken
. . .

Welcome me father
On the North shores of Lapland
Welcome me father
Who knows no name
Welcome me mother
The earth here is yawning
My body is shaking
For want of a flame
Down here
Got to laugh
The kickback is ligtening
Drowning
Got to laugh
This whole mess is frightening
I follow the pollen path
Welcome me father
The lava is rising
Welcome me mother
And give me your name
We've drunk from this wellspring
Too long, too long
Dividing the hours
To measure the time
We've lived with this heartache
Too long, too long
Numbering
What's yours, what's mine
We've harboured this sadness
So long
Nursing a voice
To sing us our songs
Raising a voice
To sing us our songs
. . .

Help me
I feel like I'm weightless
Floating right out of your hands
And there's only so much I aspire to
Taking one day at a time
And deliverance has many faces
But grace is an acquaintance of mine
Tell me how could it have happened?
You know that we're not the marrying kind.
Travel light, don't think twice
We're leaving the shadows behind.
It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, I feel it
Help me
This waterboy's wasted
Falling right out of your sky
And there's nothing I could do without you here
Loving the state that I'm in
Between no longer and not yet
On the threshold of some brighter thing
The match was struck and I was fire
The embers of a drowning man
Tell me why won't I listen
Or acknowledge that I don't understand?
Losing light, a selfish kind
And we're out on the road again
It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, I feel it
Turn the headlights on full
I want to take in it all
And let it wash over me
The bridge looked so high
From the banks that we climbed
But we climbed them so that we could be free
Give me no dreams of what the future brings
I need to know when I have gone too far
Repeated lightning strikes
Up and down the spine
They search us out wherever we are
In a world full of lies
That tug at the truth
I'm taking no sides
'Cos I recognise you.
It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, no
