Moving Carpet

You'll be curled up like a cat won't you
You'll be howling like a dog won't you
You'll be running with the wolves don't you
You'll be howling for your pack won't you
Changes
I'll be dancing on a moving carpet won't I
I come crashing from the sky don't I
I throw my glasses to the sea oh I
Now I'm dancing with my eyes raised high
Changes

Back To The Deep
03:43
|

Gotta get back to the deep
So still so blue
Where the spirits creep
No light cuts through
Gotta get back to the deep
Where I feel safe
You can turn your searchlights on
And never see another face
Gotta get back to the deep
so still so blue
Where an ancient city sleeps
No sound cuts through
Siren screams i'm tied to the mast
Wondering how long I can last
Hear your voice calling me
Gotta get back to the deep
So still so blue
Where a spanish anchor lies
At rest near an ageing tomb
Siren screams i'm tied to the mast
Wondering how long I can last
Hear your voice calling me
Hear your voice calling me
Another time under the sea
Where a spanish anchor lies
at rest near an ancient tomb
where a rusty shipwreck creaks
No one can get through

Gabriel Street
07:24
|

Cool observations and warm conversations
Words that bubble and flow
Familia faces and exotic places
Where most of us will never go
Darkened byways and neon highways
Shimmer in the asphalt heat
The lights are glaring and the music's blaring
Down here on Gabriel Street

Hopeless Friends
03:41
|

How many times do I have to tell you
It's far better to give than receive
Turning up empty handed
Is more than just a flaw in your genes
In a trickle of friends and acquaintances
Consuming and drowning this fight
Not being good with this confrontation thing
Has kept me well dressed, polite and always on time
And hey
We're dancing round the table once again
Helpless hopeless friends
You disappeared right in front of me
an accassion I'll never forget
Its not something you can schedule
Or something you plan to regret
The magic, the lady the well oiled routine
Beauty has left the stage
The husky past keeps whispering, whispering
And hey
We're dancing round the table once again
Helpless hopeless friends
And hey
We're moving round this world at such a pace
Helpless hopeless
And hey
We're dancing round the table once again
Helpless hopeless friends

River of Steel
05:44

Railway tracks
River of steel
Working hard hoping time will heal
Always wanting not that much
Never thought I'd loose your gentle touch
Why fight for what is yours
Loosing battles on distant shores
Man strives while empires fall
No wonder it happens to us all
My river wont stop till it reaches the sea
Some find it hard to set the other man free
My love not over
Get up talk it over
My cup over flowing
No way of ever knowing
Why part why steal?
My heart needs time to heal
My river wont stop till it reaches the sea
Some find it hard to set the other man free
Railway tracks
River of steel
Working hard hoping time will heal
Always wanting not that much
Never thought I'd loose your gentle touch

Electric Fence
03:08
|

Spoke to me in russian
It didnt make much sense
You gave us rouples
When we asked for pounds and pence
Downed another vodka
Sitting on your electric fence
Covered us in concrete
Then you tied the knot
Waved us goodbye
and let the anchor drop
Fell down to the bottom
Now you gotta get back to the top
Looking like picasso
But you forgot to frown
Eating shark fin soup
Down in china town
You filled me up with helium
And then you shot me down
Covered us in concrete
Then you tied the knot
Straightened up your bow tie
and let the anchor drop
Fell down to the bottom
Now you gotta get back to the top
I'm chasing bullets
With your fishing net
i'm falling down
Through your alphabet
You're mixing chillie
With my herbal cigarettes
Covered us in concrete
Then you tied the knot
Straightened up your bow tie
and let the anchor drop
Fell down to the bottom
Now you gotta get back to the top

Leap of Faith
04:06
|

Living out in space on the far side of the sun
I have a radioactive face of liquid hydrogen
So hard at the centre heavy with these fumes
Surrounded by sixteen firey moons
They can keep me company
I'm half a million miles away from you
It's a leap of faith when you stand at the edge
It's a leap of faith fly from the ledge
How can you trust in what you do
And what you do not know
You can call me Jupiter you can call me zuess
I'm the greek king of a god forsaken universe
I know that gallileo wished that he could fly
I know that youre watching the lightning in my sky
Can you keep me company
I'm half a billion miles away from you
It's a leap of faith when you stand at the edge
It's a leap of faith fly from the ledge
How can you trust in what you do
And what you do not know
I know that youre watching the lightning in my sky
Can you keep me company
I'm half a billion miles away from you
It's a leap of faith when you stand at the edge
It's a leap of faith fly from the ledge
How can you trust in what you do
And what you do not know

Message To You
02:43
|
|||
100 miles from saturday night
Spent the evening on my own
Wind on the shutters as the tom cats fight
Over scraps and bones
When I'm in my cloudy room
Staring at the crescent moon
Thats when I gotta get a message to you
Help me
I'm loosing my confidence
What I do
Seems of no consequence
Catch me
I'm falling
Falling at your feet
When I'm reaching my destination
Looking for my inspiration
Thats when I gotta get a message to you

Scare Me
02:57
|
|||
Scare me
When you close your eyes
Tear me
North east south and west
Run and hide
You're floating through the air
So fast
Light footsteps hardly touch
Nothing can hold you here
Hear me
Lying so still on this dirty floor
Spare me
Trampling bullets through a kitchen door
Youre drifting out to sea
So fast
Now there's only the sun and me
Nothing can hold you here
Suffer in silence
Cant make no sense of it
Feel angels breath on the back of my neck
Suffer in silence
Can't make no sense of it
You scare me
Scare me half to death

Carousel
03:59
|

I'm up and I'm down
Going round and around
What a feeling
I'm holding on tight
Screaming out in the night
What a feeling
We've done all we can
Stood in the queue and paid the man
My head starts spinning
This world keeps moving around
I look in your eyes
My feet can't stay on the ground
Takes me to another land
Takes my heart
Listen to the band
Oh I'm under your spell
Step right up to this carousel
My head starts spinning
This world keeps moving around
I look in your eyes
My feet can't stay on the ground
We've done all we can
Stood in the queue and paid the man
I'm up and I'm down
Going round and around
What a feeling
I'm holding on tight
Screaming out in the night
What a feeling
My head starts spinning
This world keeps moving around
I look in your eyes
My feet can't stay on the ground
