So Long
04:07
|
|||
|
I am standing on a hill
I am looking all around
I have so much time to kill
I am neither lost nor found
Chorus:
I have never been this far
I have never been this far
I have never been away so long
So long
All my dreams begin to fade
All my wishes turn to dust
All my memories mislaid
All my riches left to rust
Who are all these people here?
Who is knocking on my door?
Can I run and disappear?
Do I want this anymore?

Strawberry Sun
02:55
|
|||
|
When the leaves are not falling
and the sea never ends
and you hear the summer calling
then it's time to make amends
Rolling along in the strawberry sun
Rolling along in the strawberry sun
Rolling along in the strawberry sun
When you know you've been squandering
all the chances that you've had
Let the breeze take you wandering
and you may not feel so sad
When the days are much colder
and you wonder where you've been
Took a look over your shoulder
and remember what you've seen

Don't Ask Why
06:09
|
|||
|
We take our leave and walk away though there is no place to go
Move in shadows under skies darker than we know
And in our minds we understand what the future has in store
Still we turn our eyes towards the hope we're looking for
Every lonely road reveals a symphony of light
Feeling every movement as I turn this wheel tonight
Over the horizon there is only doubt and fear
But still I keep on driving and the destination's near
After all is said and done we live we die
Don't ask why
After all is said and done there's no goodbye
Don't ask why
Now the questions fade away leaving not a trace
Somewhere in the distance is a shining state of grace
But no-one needs to look too hard to see inside the shell
It's nothing unfamiliar and we know it all too well

Soft Landing
05:35
|
|||
|
One hundred thousand miles
Into a sky of endless blue
I see the clouds below
But they will never spoil my view
Descending vapour trails
The ones that fell before they flew
Gravity might let you go
But it's always there to let you know
It's time to clear your mind
A soft landing is hard to find
Two hundred days on board
Wish I knew how to steer this thing
But I'm not in control
I call but no-one's answering
I'm staring at the ground
The sunlight shines upon the wing
Gravity is on your side
But it always comes along for the ride
So watch the seatbelt sign
A soft landing is hard to find

You Haven't Got It Right
04:07
|
|||
|
Everybody's after me
I don't know why it has to be
I'm not going anywhere
I only have this thought to share that
You know you haven't got it right
Yeah, you know you haven't got it right
Somersaults in twisted fields
I know the competition yields
Somewhere in the shade I hide
But this is not an easy ride and
You know you haven't got it right
Yeah, you know you haven't got it right
All the numbers add up wrong
I won't stay where I don't belong
But I'm OK I've done my time
And maybe I'm still in my prime but
You know you haven't got it right
Yeah, you know you haven't got it right
So take your time and make your mark
A revolution needs a spark
It's hard to tell if this is real
I only know the truth I feel that
You know you haven't got it right
Yeah, you know you haven't got it right
You know and I know and you know and I know
And who knows where all the time goes?

These Days
04:39
|
|||
|
Wake at the same crack of morning
and gaze at the dawn of another day
Under the blink of an eye watch the hours go by
and the feeling drifts away
Isn't anything worth it these days?
Isn't anything worth it these days?
These days
Pacing the streets and the markets in search of a spark
It's at reach but never there
Running to hide from the rain feel that moment again
as it falls from everywhere
Isn't anything worth it these days?
Isn't anything worth it these days?
These days
But underneath the ground
There's always something waiting to be found
And even though the golden ages fade
Is it all as bad as it's portrayed these days?

A Matter Of Time
03:28
|
|||
|
There are faces you don't see
Places you will never be
Lives you struggle to ignore
You've got a lot to answer for
Walking underneath a cloud
Facing outwards from the crowd
You don't come round anymore
You've got a lot to answer for
It's a matter of time
And the thoughts in your mind
Will not leave you far behind
In the shadows
In the corners of your head
Words that should have gone unsaid
All the dreams you never saw
You've got a lot to answer for
No-one knows that you are here
No-one saw you disappear
Leave the room and bolt the door
You've got a lot to answer for

October Trains
07:48
|
|||
|
On wings of steel we glide
Drawn towards the sound
Over land and sea
We never touch the ground
So this is how it feels to dream
No need to feel afraid
Fate can never spoil the plans we've laid
As the miles fall
Anticipation grows
The iron horse we ride
Is steady as she goes
So this is where the journey ends
No need to look away
So much more to see, another day
Keep me in your mind
Don't let the memory fade
The years can never close
Connections that were made
So this is where we are today
No need to think too much
All we need to do is keep in touch
