I've got the feeling
You've got the feeling
I've got the feeling
You've got the feeling

Oh love don't go away
I wish you'd stay
Can I change your mind?
I'm the king of dreaming in a wishful way
When I'm wide awake
But there comes a time

And I see that what I'm needing
Is a feeling to believe in

Maybe it's true
And I'm just a fool
Who's making us blue
When life's too shore

Oh love is kind of tempting fate
It's an unknown state
In a place I can't find
And now I know I've kind of lost my way
But I keep the faith
With an open mind

And now I know I'm kind of lost
But I keep the faith

I've got the feeling, you've got the feeling
Oh I've got the feeling
You've got that feeling too
Life's too short, Life's too short

I've been on my own all day
With Al Green and Marvin Gaye
Waiting for rewind to play
I'm anticipating
Mood strings Al sings once more
Everything is changing
You've played mind games before

I thought there's be fireworks
I expected changes
I thought there'd be trumpets
Sweetest soul sensations

I've been on my own all day
Nothing seems to be OK
Blue eyed soul has turned to grey
Everything reminds you
Love brings mood swings love hurts
Every time I try to hold back or get in
You slam doors

I thought there'd be fireworks
I expected changes
I thought there'd be trumpets
Sweetest soul sensations

Sitting on my own as I
Draw the blinds
Reaching out for someone to compromise
Al was letting go as we start to fight

I thought there's be fireworks
I expected changes
I thoughts there'd be trumpets
Swetest soul sensations

A joke is not a joke
It's serious stuff
Till it's laughed at
This moment's not the past
It's nothing at all till I say that

Angel throw me a line
It's about time
It's about time
Never too late
I will escape
I just can't wait

Don't tell me there's no tears left to cry
Don't tell me that you're lonely you're lonely
Remembering the who, how and why
Don't tell i'm your only if only

The glitter and the gloom
A catch a glimpse of you in the room
Dollar bills for dreams
Nothing round here's quite what it seems

Angel throw me a line
It's about time
It's about time
Never too late
I wills escape
I just can't wait

Don't tell me there's no tears left to cry
Don't tell me that you're lonely
You're lonely
Remembering the who, how and why
Don't tell me i'm your only if only

If I could feel it
If only
If I could mean it
If only

Everywhere I go you're there
Shut my eyes and there you always are

Hold my breath and hold you in
I can feel you lighting up my skin

City bright stars always shining in my eyes
I love these nights they never ever say good-bye - good-bye

Everywhere you hear the sound
On every single day in every town

When i'm lost and down
I see the lights and then I know i'm found

City bright stars always shining in my eyes
And look these nights they never ever say good-bye - good-bye

Never say goodnight
Never fade and die
Red eyed alibis
Never say good-bye

City bright stars always shining in my eyes
And look these nights they never say goodnight

Never say goodnight
Never fade and die
Red eyed alibis
Never say good-bye

I was never one to shout out loud
Or stand out in a crowded crowd of people with their ball point views
But here I am to bare my soul, lose the past and take control
Of everything that I hold true, and now I wish I was in love

I was never one to make a fuss, even then the two of us
Were tumbling form all we knew
I could say I needed you, but would that give you the reason to
Believe that you could need me too

And now I wish I was in love

Holding on for dear life
This is what it feels like
Coming in from outside
Looking for a life line

And now I wish I was in love

Every day and every night
I'm stopping planes collide
On my own above blue skies I'm a happy satellite

I watch the world's ugliness it all unfolds as I pass
I see the young and depressed, I hope they learn how to laugh
I'm watching heartache and pain I measure levels of rain
I notice changes in tides, I know where you were last night

I record famines and droughts
Weather fronts and shoot outs
Deforestation and floods
I'm watching couples make love
I'm numb with typhoons and hate
Even police make mistakes
In lakes outside of new towns I'm watching UFOs drown

I'm just a machine that records all I see and
You can shower me with praises
Or arm me with lasers

Up where the skies are blue, I follow your every move,
I'm watching over you, I know when you're cruel
I love it when lightning strikes, it lights up your dreary lives
I wish I was blind

Everywhere I turn or I go there's a rainbow

If this is the life, if this is the way it is meant to be
How happy am I, how happy am I supposed to be?
Looking for something deep inside
Why is the truth so hard to find
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right

Call it a day, call me and say it's better
Out of the way, into a new whatever now
Hoping to float above it all
Hoping that someone breaks my fall
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right

Ups and downs can turn around
All the ins and outs are roundabouts
Maybe skies are clear but no-ones here to notice me
Lie awake on your own each night
See yourself in a different light
In a tangle you just can't unwind
And feelings you can't describe

Hoping to float above it all
Hoping that someone breaks my fall
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right

Open your eyes with a smile at the morning rain
Turn on your mind and you know what you're going to say
I'm glad you're here and I hope you stay
We'll phone in sick today
Stay in bed and talk all day
For a while we could cast away
Let the hours just drift away

Cigarettes and lies are all there's ever been
You'll never win you should have known by now
Expecting to fly away, it's counterfeit
It's not the trip you should be on by now

Searching your mind, can you find what your looking for
Suprises are fine if you get what you're wishing for
If you never fly you'll never fall
So love the now because the now is all
Live the life because you can't be sure

Cigarettes and lies are all there's ever been
You'll never win you should have known by now
Expecting to fly away, it's counterfeit
It's now the trip you should be on by now

And there were times odd moments
We'd dteal when i'd wish that time stood still
Knowing it won't, but hoping it will, i'm hoping it will

Sung my heart out onto a CD
I was hoping that the kids would love me
Felt rough acting up on the TV
But everyone was smiling by midweek

Nothing gets me down
I please the crowd
I scream they shout
Crowdpleaser

It's great to be back with the big boys
Your face all over the tabloids
We'll turn some heads with a new fad
I've been dreaming all about it in rehab

Nothing gets me down
I please the crowd
I scream they shout
Crowdpleaser

I've been caring less and less
Since my overnight success
Not they love me in the press
'Cos i'm constantly depressed

I'll come back when I decide
Overnight and twice the size
Since my overnight success
I've been caring less and less

You can't go wrong
Here's a happy song
You can sing along
You can sing along

Fourteen hours of working shifts
In early morning Mersey mists
Too tired to taste the cornflakes on your tongue

As morning hits the docks
You dream of all the ships there must have been
I river full of everything that it's not
And if your life's not meant to feel like this
Maybe it's time for someone to resist

The riverbank could tell you tales
Of working lives, ship with sails
Jobs were passed from fathers to their sons
Sometimes it comes down to you
The many to protect the few
Unless you cross the line your jobs are gone

If it takes a thousand days we'll never stop
Tel it a thousand ways you'll still be wrong

Not a word in the morning paper
Feels like we've been out for ages
Maybe unions and players won't save us
But there's nothing on earth can break us

The strength to load a thousand ships
But willing hands can turn to fists
On picket lines emotions feelings overflow
A decent job for decent pay
To fight if thats the only way
The union says well tough your on your own

If it takes a thousand days we'll never stop
Tell it a thousand ways you'll still be wrong

Not a word in the morning papers
Feels like we've been out for ages
The unions and prayers won't save us
There's nothing on earth can break us

The sun's a dream that shines so bright it makes you cry
So keep your eyes on bluer skies
Tonight I wanna fly and kiss the highest star
Go far away get lost in space

And if there's no-one there to guide me
Tell me how you get it straight
I'm hoping fate will find me
To free me from my present state

Of dizzy nights with crazy dreams
Drowning in a human stream
Won't you come and rescue me

'Cos when the walls are closing in
On days where the strangest things remind me
Of all the things that could have been
Like whispers on the winds that blow me

Doesn't matter how I try
You're always on my mind
Today's a sea that never ends i've really tried
It just rolls by till it hits the sky

I'd beg the moon to end the day
And change the tide
Bit it's really high and i'm really tired

I'm hoping fate will find me tomorrow could be up or down
But nowhere inside my is believing in forever now

The future may be twice as cool
I don't know where i'm going to
Won't you come and see me through

Come and do it to me babe
Come and do it for be baby
Only you can do it for me babe
