letra de Englishman in New York
I don't drink coffee I take tea, my dear.
I like my toast done on one side.
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk,
I'm an Englishman in New York.

You see me walking down Fifth Avenue,
A walking cane here at my side.
I take it everywhere I walk,
I'm an Englishman in New York.

Whoa. I'm an alien.
I'm a legal alien.
I'm an Englishman in New York.
Whoa. I'm an alien.
I'm a legal alien.
I'm an Englishman in New York.

If "manners maketh man" as someone said,
He's the hero of the day.
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile.
Be yourself no matter what they say.

Whoa. I'm an alien.
I'm a legal alien.
I'm an Englishman in New York.
Whoa. I'm an alien.
I'm a legal alien.
I'm an Englishman in New York.

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety,
But you could end up as the only one.
Gentleness, sobriety are so rare in this society.
At night a candle's brighter than the sun.

Takes more than combat gear to make a man.
Takes more than a license for a gun.
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can.
A gentleman will walk but never run.

If "manners maketh man" as someone said,
He's the hero of the day.
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.
Be yourself no matter what they say.

letra de I Hung My Head
Early one morning with time to kill
I borrowed jeb's rifle and sat on the hill
I saw a lone rider crossing the plain
I drew a bread on him to practice my aim
My brother's rifle went off in my hand
A shot rang out across the land
The horse he kept running the rider was dead
I hung my head i hung my head
I set off running to wake from the dream
My brother's rifle went into the stream
I kept on running into the salt lands
And that's where they found me, my head in my hands
The sheriff he asked me "why had i run"
Then it came to me just what i had done
And all for no reason, just one piece of lead
I hung my head, i hung my head
Here in the courthouse, the whole town is there
I see the judge high up in his chair
"explain to the courtroom what went through your mind
And we'll ask the jury what verdict they find"
I said "i felt the power of death over life
I orphaned his children i widowed his wife
I beg their forgiveness i wish i was dead"
I hung my head, i hung my head
Early one morning with time to kill
I see the gallows up on the hill
And out in the distance a trick of the brain
I see a lone rider crossing the plain
He's come to fetch me to see what they done
We'll ride together til kingdom come
I pray for god's mercy for soon i'll be dead
I hung my head, i hung my head

letra de When We Dance
If 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 de I Burn for You
Now that i have found you
In the coolth of your evening smile
The shade of your parasol
And your love flows through me
Though i drink at your pool
I burn for you i burn for
You and i are lovers
When night time folds around our bed
In peace we sleep entwined
And your love flows through me
Though an ocean soothes my head
I burn for you i burn for
Stars will fall from dark skies
As ancient rocks are turning
Quiet fills the room
And your love flows through me
Though i lie here so still
I burn for you, i burn for you
I burn...
We Work the Black SeamVer letra 7:19

letra de We Work the Black Seam
This place has changed for good
Your economic theory said it would
It's hard for us to understand
We can't give up our jobs the way we should
Our blood has stained the coal
We tunneled deep inside the nations soul
We matter more than pounds and pence
Your economic theory makes no sense
One day in a nuclear age
They may understand our rage
They build machines that they can't control
And bury the waste in a great big hole
Power was to become cheap and clean
Grimey faces were never seen
But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
We work the black seam together
The seam is underground
Three million years of pressure packed it down
We walk through ancient forest lands
And light a thousand cities with our hands
Your dark satanic mills
Have made redundant all our mining skills
You can't exchange a six inch band
For all the poisoned steams in cumberland
Chorus
We work the black seam together
Our conscious lives run deep
You cling onto your mountain while we sleep
This way of life is part of me
There is no price so only let me be
And should the children weep
The turning world will sing their souls to sleep
When you have sunk without a trace
The universe will suck me into place
Chorus
We work the black seam together
