Welcome (bonus track)

Your hands were covered in paint
The pillow smothered my cry
You were half charmer half snake
I lived in dreamtime

But I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive

Some nights I'd sleep in the car
Just to escape you
You drove devotion too far
No-one could save you

But I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive

I still have visions of you
I still have nights to get through
And when the trust isn't true
I have these visions of you
I have these visions of you

And I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive
I'm alive

I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
I'm alive
There's nothing more to say
I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
I'm alive
There's nothing more to say
I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted

. . .



Talk to me, talk to me
Like you used to darling
I know it's cold, I know it's late
But lets' go out walking
Cause we haven't heard each other in a long time
And we have been treading water, living side by side

You take my breath away, yeah you still do
Even though we've been down
So come on talk to me, come on
Even though we've been down

Come to me, come to me
Like you used to darling
Every day, every way
We've been losing something
'Cause we haven't held each other in a long time
And I need to feel your body close to mine

You take my breath away, yeah you still do
Even though we've been down
So come on talk to me, come on
Even though we've been down so long

'Cause it's still inside you and it's still inside you
Still in our blood in our memory
I'm still longing for you, are you longing for me?

You take my breath away, yeah you still do
Even though we've been down
So come on talk to me, come on

. . .



Well I was watching this talk show the other day
And on it there was this guy and he was saying
When you let other people tell you what's right
When you leave your instinct and your own truth behind he said
That's a virus of the mind. That's a virus of the mind
I guess it's kind of like losing your sight; for a
Second you think that they might be right, and it
Feeds the doubts you have inside, and it
Almost starts to feel like a crime
To follow your own rhythm and rhyme

Yeah I'm pretty happy living in my own sweet time I'm pretty happy
And I don't need your virus of the mind

Well I went to this party thing last night
A lot of people I hadn't seen in a long time
And they wanted to know about my life,
But making me feel like it wasn't quite right
Like where's your kids and where's your car?
I said I don't have either but I have a guitar
And I ended up feeling like I was a freak
So I found some wine and something to eat
And I talked to a dog to pass the time
Told myself I'm doing fine,
It's just a virus of the mind
It's just a virus of the mind

Yeah I'm pretty happy living in my own sweet time I'm pretty happy
And I don't need your virus of the mind

It's in the deep of your soul
It's on the tip of your tongue
It's the feeling you get when you feel young
It's in the sound of the beat
It's in the base of your spine
It's in your gut reaction, yeah every time
But they tell you what you should have,
They tell you who you should be
It's in the picturesand ads and in the magazines
I'm kicking it off like a bug in the breeze
'Cause is anyone out there inside me?
I said is anyone out there inside me?

. . .



There is a paradise that can be found
A better life to bring us round
And all we really need to do
Is see the world like lovers do

I want to take it easy, take it slow
To catch a fire and let it go
I want to give myself to you
So we can live like lovers do

Like lovers do, I want to feel that way
Like lovers do, they lose themselves for days
And I need to feel that way

I can hear you thinking what I feel
I know that what we've got is real
And all we need to get us through
Is just to live like lovers do

Like lovers do, I want to feel that way
Like lovers do, they lose themselves for days
And I need to feel, I need to feel that way
Give me strength to give myself to you

. . .



The streets are all busy and we're still in bed
We should be up working
But we're lying here instead
I look outside, the weather's fine
For playing music and drinking wine

I could waste the day with you
I could slip away into another dimension
What a perfect way
To spend the day with you

Let's walk to the cafe and sit in the sun
And read all the papers and watch everyone
'Cause life is short and life is sweet
And sometimes you've jus got to set yourself free

I could waste the day with you
I could slip away into another dimension
What a perfect way

. . .



Got the lights down low, the street below
The world inside is spinning
All my memories, my doubts about
The ways that I've been living
You come on like the sun
And blow it all away.

And I guess heaven sent you 'cause I'm heaven high
And I'm heading into what I can't describe
It's all I ever wanted but I'm terrified,
You're in my head, in my veins, in my world
And you're here to stay

Every day I wake, I hesitate
I feel you in my sky
All the melodies, my dreams, it seems
You're always on my mind
You come on like the tide, you turn me
And I can't turn away

And I guess heaven sent you
'Cause I'm heaven high
And I'm heading into what I can't describe
It's all I ever wanted but I'm terrified;
You're in my head, in my veins, in my world

. . .



I used to think that I knew what we needed
Just assumed we would always be fine
Now I don't think that we lost the feeling
But we let everything build up inside

It's only love
But love should make us strong
It's only love
But love has been hurting so long

What a challenge, honestly
What a struggle to learn to speak
Who'd have thought that
Pretending was easier
It's only love
But love should make us strong
It's only love
But love has been hurting so long

And its all a part of me, it tears at my heart
Only love
And it's all an eternity, hoping to learn
Only love

There's a part of you I'm trying to reach
Still a part I don't know
Tell me, is devotion a gift or a thief?
Do you wish I'd let go? 

. . .


[Bruce Springsteen]

Hey little boy is your mum home
Did she go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire

Tell me now baby is she good to you
Can she do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire

. . .



Here in the light of late afternoon
Sun in the water, I'm thinking of you
How we've become too far to be drifting apart
All this distance we're losing, I know it's my fault
But I think that I love you
I know that I do
I just need you to help me,

Help me be good to you,
Help me, help me be good to you

I don't know why I can't settle down
Something from my childhood I still haven't
Found
And I don't want to hurt you
With all my longings and my doubts
Just the way I need to feel free I can see
How it brings you down

But I think that I love you
I know that I do
I just need you to help me,

Help me be good to you,
Help me, help me be good to you

. . .



Can you hear me? am I loud enough?
Could you see it coming like an avalanche?
I only felt the need

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you waited so
Long
When somebody turns you on.

Were you waiting when you took my hand?
Were you aching with me? did you understand?
I only felt the heat

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you waited so 
Long
When somebody turns you on.

Now I know this is real
I know 'cause I know 'cause I feel
Your eyes go straight to my soul
And I know this is good
It goes deep like I know it should
We've just got to let love grow

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you waited so 
Long
When somebody turns you on.

From Gloomy Sunday soundtrack

Sunday is gloomy
My hours are slumberless
Dearest the shadows
I live with are numberless
Little white flowers
Will never awaken you
Not where the black coach
Of sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thoughts
Of ever returning you
Would they be angry
If I thought of joining you?

Gloomy Sunday

Gloomy is Sunday
With shadows I spend it all
My heart and I
Have decided to end it all
Soon there'll be candles
And prayers that are said I know
But let them not weep
Let them know that I'm glad to go
Death is no dream
For in death I'm caressing you
With the last breath of my soul
I'll be blessing you

Gloomy Sunday

Dreaming, I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you asleep
In the deep of my heart here
Darling I hope
That my dream never haunted you
My heart is telling you
How much I wanted you


. . .



Simplicity is what we need
And I know it in my heart
So many choices make us think we need
What we haven't got

I've been blessed by you
I've been tested by an angel
I've been blessed by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness

And if I knew what Buddha taught
Would my wings unfold?
And if I had all that I want
Could I let it go?

I've been blessed by you
I've been tested by an angel
I've been blessed by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness

Sometimes I feel like I'm learning to crawl
Like I'm still learning how to love
And sometimes I feel like I'm losing it all
But I know there must be some way
We can rise above

I've been blessed by you
I've been tested by an angel
I've been blessed by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness
And I know and I believe, and I know and I
Believe... 

. . .



My heart opened like an oyster shell
I drank salt water from you lips
And just below the equator
I swallowed the pearl

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel
Like I've just been born

And the sea rolled in and rose around us
Your face above me, darkening the stars
And as the waves were breaking out along the reef
I dived for your heart

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel
Like I've just been born 

. . .



I see you standing in the doorway
Shadow in the sun
I'm reaching out to touch you

Is it better when you know?
That you're not the only one.
That I can hear you.

And there's so much I can do for you.
Give it time I know that I can pro-ove
Now my world is often out to you.
Let if fly-i-i

Welcome
To my life
Welcome
To my world

Welcome
Come inside

I see you pick'in up the pieces
The pieces of a dream
You tried to build around you

I know you're looking for a reason
A reason to believe
And now I found you

And there's so much I can do for you
Given time I know that I can prove
Now my world is offered up to you.

Come inside
And I say. . .

Welcome
To my life

Welcome
To my world

Welcome
Come inside
Wel-he-he-he-he

And there's so much I can do for you
Given time I know that I can prove
Now my world is often out to you.

Come inside
And I say. . .

Chorus (x 4):
Welcome
To my life

Welcome
To my world

Welcome
Come inside

Wel-he-he-he-he
