- Fragile4:35If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one Drying in the colour of the evening sun Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away But something in our minds will always stay Perhaps this final act was meant To clinch a lifetime's argument That nothing comes from violence And nothing ever could For all those born beneath an angry star Lest we forget how fragile we are On and on the rain will fall Like tears from a star Like tears from a star On and on the rain will say How fragile we are How fragile we are On and on the rain will fall Like tears from a star Like tears from a star On and on the rain will say How fragile we are How fragile we are How fragile we are How fragile we are

- Perfect Love Gone Wrong
- All This Time5:20I looked out across The river today I saw a city in the fog and an old church tower Where the seagulls play. I saw the sad shire horses walking home In the sodium light I saw two priests on the ferry October geese on a cold winter's night And all this time the river flowed Endlessly to the sea. Two priests came round our house tonight One young one old to offer prayers for the dying To serve the final rite, One to learn, one to teach, Which way the cold wind blows Fussing and flapping in priestly black Like a murder of crows And all this time, the river flowed Endlessly to the sea If i had my way i'd take a boat from the river And i'd bury the old man, I'd bury him at sea Blessed are the poor, for they shall inherit the earth Better to be poor than a fat man in the eye of a needle And as these words were spoken i swear i hear The old man laughing, 'what good is a used up world, and how could it be Worth having' And all this time the river flowed Endlessly like a silent tear And all this time the river flowed Father, if jesus exists, Then how come he never lived here. The teacher told us, the romans built this place They built a wall and a temple, an edge of the empire Garrison town, They lived and they died, they prayed to their gods But the stone gods did not make a sound And their empire crumbled, 'til all that was left Were the stones the workmen found And all this time the river flowed In the falling light of a northern sun If i had my way i'd take a boat from the river Men go crazy in congregations But they only get better One by one One by one...

- When We Dance4:52If he loved you like i love you i would walk away in shame i'd move town, i'd change my name When he watches you when he comes to buy your soul on your hand his golden rings like he owns the bird that sings When we dance angels will run and hide their wings The priest has said my soul salvation is in the balance of the angels and underneath the wheels of passion i keep my faith in my fashion When we dance angels will run and hide their wings (oooh) i'm still in love with you Chorus when we dance angels will run and hide their wings i'm gonna love you more than life if you'll only be my wife i'm gonna love you night and day i'm gonna try in every way when we dance angels will run and hide their wings i'm gonna find a place to live give you all i've got to give i would love you more than life if you'll only be my wife If i could break down these walls and shout my name at heaven's gate i'd take these hands and i'd destroy the dark machineries of fate, cathedrals are broken heaven's no longer above hellfire's a promise away i'd still be saying i'm still in love still in love still in love still in love... He won't love you like i love you he won't care for you this way he'll mistreat you with disdain Come and live with me we'll have children of our own i would love you more than life if you'll come and be my wife Chorus when we dance angels will run and hide their wings i'm gonna love you more than life if you'll only be my wife i'm gonna love you night and day i'm gonna try in every way when we dance angels will run and hide their wings i'm gonna find a place to live give you all i've got to give i would love you more than life if you'll only be my wife [etc...] When we dance... I had a dream last night dreamt you were by my side walking with me baby my heart was filled with pride i had a dream last night [fade...]

Letra
How many of you people out there Been hurt in some kind of love affair? And how many times did you swear That you'd never love again? How many lonely sleepless nights? How many lies how many fights? And why would you want to Put yourself through all of that again? Love is pain i hear you say Love is a cruel and bitter way of Paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain How could it be that what you need the most Can leave you feeling just like a ghost? You never want to feel so sad and lost again One day you could be looking Through an old book in rainy weather You see a picture of her smiling at you When you were still together You could be walking down the street And who should you chance to meet? But that same old smile you've been thinking of all day? Why don't we turn the clock to zero honey? I'll sell the stock we'll spend all the money We're starting up a brand new day Turn the clock all the way back I wonder if she'll take me back I'm thinking in a brand new way Turn the clock to zero sister You'll never know how much i missed her Starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero boss The rivers wide we'll swim across We're starting up a brand new day It could happen to you Just like it happened to me There is simply no immunity There's no guarantee I say love is such a force if you find yourself in it You need some time for reflection You say, baby wait a minute, wait a minute Wait a minute, wait a minute Wait a minute, wait a minute Turn the clock to zero honey I'll sell the stock we'll spend all the money We're starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero mac I'm begging her to take me back I'm thinking in a brand new way Turn the clock to zero boss The rivers wide we'll swim across Starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero buddy Don't wanna be no fuddy duddy We're starting up a brand new day I'm the rhythm in your tune I'm the sun and you're the moon I'm the bat and you're the cave You're the beach and i'm the wave I'm the plough and you're the land You're the glove and i'm the hand I'm the train and you're the station I'm the flagpole to your nation I'm the present to your future You're the wound and i'm the suture You're the magnet to my pole I'm the devil in your soul You're the pupil i'm the teacher You're the church and i'm the preacher You're the flower i'm the rain You're the tunnel i'm the train Stand up, all you lovers in the world Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl Stand up, all you lovers in the world We're starting up a brand new day You're the crop to my rotation You're the sum of my equation I'm the answer to your question If you follow my suggestion We could turn this ship around And go up instead of down You're the pan and i'm the handle You're the flame and i'm the candle Stand up, all you lovers in the world Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl Stand up, all you lovers in the world Starting up a brand new day - Fields Of Gold3:50You'll remember me when the west wind moves Upon the fields of barley You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky As we walk in the fields of gold So she took her love For to gaze awhile Upon the fields of barley In his arms she fell as her hair came down Among the fields of gold Will you stay with me, will you be my love Among the fields of barley We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky As we lie in the fields of gold See the west wind move like a lover so Upon the fields of barley Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth Among the fields of gold I never made promises lightly And there have been some that I've broken But I swear in the days still left We'll walk in the fields of gold We'll walk in the fields of gold Many years have passed since those summer days Among the fields of barley See the children run as the sun goes down Among the fields of gold You'll remember me when the west wind moves Upon the fields of barley You can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in the fields of gold When we walked in the fields of gold When we walked in the fields of gold
- Moon Over Bourbon Street2:55
Letra
There's a moon over bourbon street tonight I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight I've no choice but to follow that call The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all I pray everyday to be strong For I know what I do must be wrong Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street It was many years ago I became what I am I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb Now I can never show my face at noon And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon The brim of my hat hides the eyes of a beast I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street She walks everyday through the streets of new orleans She's innocent and young from a family of means I have stood many times outside her window at night To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight How could I be this way when I pray to god above I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street - If I Ever Lose My Faith In You4:31You could say i lost my faith in science and progress you could say i lost my belief in the holy church you could say i lost my sense of direction you could say all of this and worse, but if i ever lose my faith in you there'd be nothing left for me to do Some would say i was a lost man in a lost world you could say i lost my faith in the people on tv you could say i'd lost my belief in our politicians yhey all seemed like game show hosts to me if i ever lose my faith in you there'd be nothing left for me to do i could be lost inside their lies without a trace but every time i close my eyes i see your face I never saw no miracle of science that didn't go from a blessing to a curse i never saw no military solution that didn't always end up as something worse, but let me say this first if i ever lose my faith in you there'd be nothing left for me to do
- Every Breath You Take5:04
Letra
Every breath you take Every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you Every single day Every word you say Every game you play Every night you stay I'll be watching you Oh can't you see You belong to me How my poor heart aches with every step you take Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace I dream at night I can only see your face I look around but it's you I can't replace I feel so cold and I long for your embrace I keep crying baby, baby please Oh can't you see You belong to me How my poor heart aches with every step you take Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you
