1: Stay

You're the one who makes the world go round
I hope my dreams won't fall apart
You're the one like the wind you move along
Sail the ocean, day by day

Though she's never out on her own
She'll come inside me, takes me home
I've never been this far away

You're the one
You make me feel so young
Old enough to change your name
You're the one, shines so bright just like the sun
Every time you walk away

Though she's never out on her own
She'll come inside me, takes me home
I've never been this far away

Stay - never leave me - don't let me down
Stay - never leave me - don't let me down

Though she's never out on her own
She'll come inside me, takes me home
I've never been this far away

Stay - never leave me - don't let me down
Stay - never leave me - don't let me down

Stay - never leave me - don't let me down
Stay - never leave me - don't let me down
Never leave me you're the one
Never leave me you're the one
You're the one

2: Low Light

Days are over, lights are loud
There's nothing left to talk about
Free from every strain
Another year, another weary love

You're brighter than the light I'm in
Sometimes you ache, you burn my skin
And be your friend
The more I see the more I think I don't

Though I feel so much near the fountain
There's a lot to be left behind
Still I wonder about the flavour in life

Days are over, lights are loud
And nothing left to talk about
Free from every strain
Another year, another dream apart

Though I feel so much near the fountain
There's a lot to be left behind
Still I wonder about the flavour..
I feel so much near the fountain
There's a lot to be left behind

You're bright and still the light I'm in
Will never ache or burn my skin
But be your friend
The more I see the more I think I don't

3: The Doctor & I

When you're feeling small and you can't say why
Count you're blessings now
Realise you are richer than I

Being young and bright
Still a life ahead
Take it as it comes
Between now and ever you're gone

The doctor and I will never
Think lightly about your case
We'll stand right beside you
We're close when you call

When you're feeling small and you can't say why
Count you're blessings now
You know you are richer than I

The doctor and I will never
Think lightly about your case
We'll stand right beside you
We're close when you call

The doctor and I will never
Think lightly about your case
We'll stand right beside you
We're close when you call

4: Sheila

I'm open to reason
I try to hang on, believe me
Can't get over you - no way
Sheila, she kills me

The days have grown longer
I wait for a sign - an answer
It's the blood in her eyes
Sheila, she kills me

You have you're anger
It poisons your mind - slowly
But I know she'll be mine
Sheila, she loves me
Sheila, she loves me
Sheila, she loves me

I'm open to reason

5: Allright

Some thoughts are weak, I easily forget
But every now and then, they're messing up my head

Talking like a child that wants to have its way
I'm learning every day
To speak up and to say

I'm allright - take a chance on myself today
Uptight - and it's never enough

I'm allright - take a chance on myself today
Uptight - and it's never enough

I'm allright - take a chance on myself today
Uptight - and it's never enough
Allright - take a chance on myself today
Uptight - and it's never, never, never enough

6: Holida Why

I still can recall the time
I'll never be the same again
You, sore and withered eyes
Those were the years we left behind

Hard to get you off my mind
You always get your way, my friend
Eyes wide open all the time
Those were the years we left behind

I was foolin' around but hardly reachin' out
It never crossed my mind but now I'm sorry
But I know that I tried to find a reason for your smile
Now it's all but memory, gone

I was foolin' around but hardly reachin' out
It never crossed my mind but now I'm sorry
I know that I tried to find a reason for your smile
It's all but memory, gone

7: You're So Vain

You walked into the party
Like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror
As you watched yourself go by
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner and

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

You had me several years ago
When I was still quite naive
Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair
And that we would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved
And one of them was me
I had some dreams there were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee and

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

You had one eye in the mirror
As you watched yourself go by
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner and

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

You walked into the party
Like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
And you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not, you're with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend and

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

8: Birthmark

She'll only be a minute
Just going through her hair
There's gonna be a wedding
Wish I could be there
But then again: why should I be alone

Her first man was a sadist
Who drank her tears like wine
Until she mixed his coffee
With something alkaline
She left him at the table
And slammed the door

My ancestors have let me down
I asked for fame in every town
All along they wear me out
Our ancestors

Only be a minute
Going through her hair
I watched another wedding
I watched until I cried
Over all the loved ones, men and wives

My ancestors have let me down
I asked for fame in every town
All along they wear me out
Our ancestors have let me down
I asked for fame in every town
All along they wear me out
My ancestors
Down, down, down

9: Boy You Were

I cannot I believe you
If you say that you're not afraid
For something blows your mind
The face I've never seen

Never roam about anymore
I reckon every move you make
But somehow you won't be around no more, no more

I only know the little boy you were
You're growing older and I'm scared to lose you

Will you ever believe when I say
There's something strange about you
Its just that I won't take the blame anymore anymore, no more

I only know the little boy you were
You're growing older and I'm scared to lose you
I only know the little boy you were
You're growing older and I'm scared to lose you
I only know the little boy you were

10: Liquid

I'm liquid again
Flowing down a hill
Perpetually in motion

I'm liquid again
Both feet off the ground
Floating on the ocean

Man made pills to cure
Efficiently, chemically
As many pills as life's virtual emotions

I'm liquid again
Flowing down a hill
Perpetually in motion
I'm liquid again
Both feet off the ground
Floating on the ocean
Man made pills to cure
Efficiently, chemically
As many pills as lifes

I'm liquid again
Flowing down a hill
Infinitely, emily, I am free

Stepping back into a world of pink
The safest whoom

11: H.P. Confirm

When my tv shows the world
Made up of full-colour violence
I want to be close to you
You keep my head from shaking

I feel at ease being home
To watch the world from a window
I hear you knock on the door
You keep my head from aching

When my tv shows the world
Made up of full-colour violence
I want to be close to you
You keep my head from shaking

12: Soft and Fat

The sun's out over California
It's too hot to stay in
Take my daddy's car out for a swim

This is where they used to hang out
Singing 'bout a lonely sea
Age of innocence, careless and free

Money's there when you need it
Friends are always around the house
Life's a symphony, you're in a band

Make a record, make another
Capitol is on your back
Instant symphonies till you lose track

This man has doubts
Find me a cloud
I'm on the way - too far

Suddenly you wake up
From the California dream
Can't get out of bed
Out of your head

Six feet, three inches
Twohundredforty pounds
Little baby whale
Sing us a song

This man has doubts
Find me a cloud
I'm on the way - too far
This man has doubts
Find me a cloud
I'm on the way - too far
