So I said I'm on the roam so I need a car
And I know that I'm getting alive
And I say I got faith and a season
And I say that's where I'm going to
I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it
Well I want a good love by my side
Keep on getting out of love and my pride
And I know I keep hurting my love yeah
But I know it ain't killing
I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it
So I said I'm on the roam so I need a car
And I know that I'm staying alive
And I know that my faith is in season
And I say that's where I'm going to
I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it
I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it

Sonny signed his name up for tomorrow
And laughed with all his friends
At all the little men who borrow tunes
They heard just yesterday
Davey got us down but we got away
And drank to all the days
That we had whiled away
Just playing Robin Hood a little out of phase
And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day
And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks
Stevie burned the sky when he flew away
And left us things to say
When all the world was falling down
Around our shoulders, cold and grey
Harry carried on in his usual way
And Minnie went inside
He came out once and we both cried
And Minnie blew my head away
And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day
And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks
When you’re giving everything away
Everybody lets you pay
You’re saving up for a better day
Seeing things in a better way
You know you’ve got to live
There’s nothing you wont give
To hear the phone and not let it ring
Every Monday morning
Shughie found love and he almost cried
We laughed and wondered why
We loved the sky and found the space
And gazed out over Stevie’s place
And then the nightmares come
When your friend’s go away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day
And then the nightmares come
When your friend’s go away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks

Where do you go
Buttoned in your favourite coat
Stepping out to a different world
When you might be home late
And where are you now
Staring at your favourite box
The one with the travellers cross
On the road past the gate
But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world
But if I could swim
Then I’d go out and find my boat
Sail away to my favourite coast
And let you all in
And if I could do, all the things you’re asking for
Then maybe I’d find your door
And bring it home to you
But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world
So where do we go
Like two Christopher’s in the snow
Yeah we’re blind but we want to know
Just to say I love you
And all of our lives
We’ll sail through the suns and moons
To sing our Travellers Tunes
Just to say I love you
But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world

I don't want to be another big star
Picking at your cars
Stealing at your clothes
Finding out what you don't know
You don't know
I don't want to be your big star
Picking your calls; saying I don't know
I don't want to be your suitor
Lacking at your feet
Trying to love the things you need
And you know I've heard this before
And you know I've heard it some more
Won't you give me a chance
To break down your door
But I sit
Oh Oh
I still sit here
I don't want to be a tailor
Pricking at your thumb
Washing all the tears away
Some words
Oh no I believe they don't feel you
Picking up your dirt
Washing all your dreams away
(Repeat Chorus)
. . .

She nails down moon beams
And talks in double time
Stumbling down to wherever she goes
I live in the meantime
And I get frustrated
So I put my wager on Debris Road
It keeps me running down Debris Road
I'm not scared but it's somewhere I cling to
All the places I (still) wanna go
They won't cast a shadow on my Debris Road
I get frustrated looking for moonbeams
They always fall where I never go
'Cause I like the daylight and I like a good life
Running so fast down Debris Road
(Repeat Chorus)
Someone got moonfaced and someone gets tearful
Talking so much that they really don't know
Sitting up all night singing songs 'till daylight
Striking a match with the devil below
(Repeat Chorus)

Before I let you all go
Before I pull you from this show
Before I wave to you
I'd like to say to you
I wish you never to be alone
Besides yourself what can you say
Millions apart and miles away
Besides yourself what do you need
Some feel no pain while others bleed
So if you're going to save my words
Make sure it's this time you deserve
Before I walk away
I know your every day
Will play before you on it's own
Besides yourself what can you say
Millions apart and miles away
Besides yourself what do you need
Some feel no pain while others bleed
And I'm not saying I'm not saying any wrong by you
And I'm not saying I'm not talking my time for you
Besides yourself what can you say
Millions apart and miles away
Besides yourself what do you need
Some feel no pain while others bleed
Besides yourself

And when she blows the candle flame to smoke
She says a prayer for all those who live in houses and in homes
And Monday she’ll go down town standing naked in the road
You may know what I am
But who I am you don’t know
She’ll run across the mustard dust sand
Scream down the wind
And the sea is in and cold
Like when in holiday homes
And houses like sweets confectionary
And sandcastles and drinking wine
Hungry dinners perfectly timed
And mother and father glowing young
Happy to be each other together
When she blows the candle out
She goes to bed and lies and drags through her head
The day that went way of every day
But tomorrow she’ll fly a plane
Over the fields where the houses aren’t built yet
She smiled sweetly across the room
Through the lunchtime smoke
And I loved her for a second
And discarded the queen and I know
How sweetness turns sour
And leaves they turn to brown
And then to earth and dust
And settle in this town
You get blown away…
You get blown away…
You get blown away…
And when she blows the candle flame to smoke
She says a prayer for all those who live in houses and in homes
And Monday she’ll go down town standing naked in the road
You may know what I am
But who I am you don’t know
She’ll run across the mustard dust sand
Scream down the wind
And the sea is in and cold
Like when in holiday homes
And houses like sweets confectionary
And sandcastles and drinking wine
Hungry dinners perfectly timed
She smiled sweetly across the room
Through the lunchtime smoke
And I loved her for a second
And discarded the queen and I know
When men are being little boys again
And women cruel step mothers of old
And this is the invention
The adventure of my own
I get blown away…
I get blown away…
I get blown away

"Tele he's the one he knows what to say
Knows how to find his own way
He knows the roads by night and by doorways
But watching the light in a hall
Won't change a thing or say at all
What it is that he says
Still he says that I don't know
Still he says that I don't know
I don't why I think about so much
When I don't know what it is I can't say
And I wouldn't change a thing if I believe you all
And scream it in your face
Still I'd say hey I don't know
Still I'd say hey I don't know
Tele deals the cards and draws an ace
And finds himself miles away
Where skies ain't bruised by towers and fumes
Children ain't too young to play
Would I change a thing
I'd change it all
But we're born different days
Still I'd say hey I don't know
Still I'd say hey I don't know
(Repeat Chorus)
Would I change a thing
I'd change it all when I'm miles away
Would I change a thing
I'd change it all but we were born on different days
I'd change a thing
I'd change it all when I'm miles away..."

I think everybody's after me
They want to know just what I feel
Pushing wires under my nose
Everybody's standing on my toes
Telling the world what I should know
You said you'd seen life from near the floor
You opened every closing door
Thank you for always being there
And all the nights in which we shared
And we know we're always there
If it ever gets you down
You know I'll always be around
Cos too much just aint enough
[whistle]
We - we who are your property
Whose every single move you see
We don't mind the prying eyes
We don't mind all your lies
Or the headlines that you write
. . .

"I'll go with that one, yeah"

Spark and Cindy live by their own means
They wouldn't have any if I'd only known where they'd been
And I want to make things a part of my life
And I want to see that things are going to be right
But if you can't even stand on your feet
And if you don't own the air that you breathe
Then it's not for me to say
But I wouldn't live that way
And I wouldn't stand apart
And I wouldn't find the real
And I wouldn't play a part
And I wouldn't find in love
So misguided by some fool
And just what I'm trying trying to say
Makes my head spin round the room
And I want to make things a part of my life
And I want to see that things are going to be right
But if you can't even stand on your feet
And if you don't own the air that you breathe
Then it's not for me to say
But I wouldn't live that way
And I wouldn't stand apart
And I wouldn't find the real
And I wouldn't play a part
And I wouldn't find in love
So misguided by some fool
And just what I'm trying trying to say
Makes my head spin round the room

We're just half a dream away
Sitting on our fences
Building up defences
Making up the rules by which we play
We're just half way down the road
Staking our positions
But stupid superstitions
Only give fools too heavy a load
The magpie screeched and my window is shattered
Her body's bruised but her soul's not battered
The fireman tried but the hose was frozen
The cupboard's bare but the door needs closing
We spend half our time away
From being where we want to
And seeing who it's fun to
Not blaming ourselves for our mistakes
We spend half a dream away
Just looking out of windows
Waiting for a signal
Waiting for night to turn to day
The tree was bare but the birds were singing
The milk turned sour but my thirst needs quenching
The meat was dead and I need me feeding
The room was cold but the night was freezing
The rainbow frowned when the sun was shining
A baby's snatched on a beautiful morning
A dog runs wild and the brakes are screaming
A church on fire is struck by lightning
The dead man's hands had beautiful fingers
The princess frowned at her lovers mistress
She went insane and poisoned the children
A teacher's drowned and a child is laughing
We're just half a dream away
We're just half a dream away...

Sonny went and flipped away and said he had to go
How can you ever say he never stayed alone?
And how could i belong with anyone you know?
Come on every line's a line i'll never know
Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing
Sometimes i can get along alone enough
Backing everyone away and never have enough
And how could i be playing every line for you?
Look at the things today that i can never choose
Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing
Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again
Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again
Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again
And how could I be playing every line for you?
Look at the things today that i can never choose
Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing
