A Sort Of Homecoming

And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
To a light that's in the distance

And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, "desire", time
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape

Oh oh on borderland we run
And still we run
We run and don't look back
I'll be there, I'll be there
Tonight, a highroad, a highroadout of here

The city walls are all come down
The dust a smokescreen all around
See faces ploughed like fields
That once gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill as the valleys explode
Dislocated suffocated
The land grows weary of its own

(O coma way o coma way
O coma way o coma way say)

Oh oh on borderland we run
And still we run
We run and don't look back
Tonight, tonight

(O coma way o coma way
O coma way o coma way say)

The wind will crack in wintertime
A bomb-blast lighting waltz
No spoken words just a scream...

Tonight we'll build a bridge
Across the sea and land
See the sky the burning rain
She will die and live again
Tonight

And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and fallen snow
Across the fields of mourning
To a light that's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
For tonight at least
I am coming home
I am coming home

Pride

One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

One man cought
On a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss

What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

Early morning April four
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at least
They took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

In the name of love....

Wire

Innocent and in a sense I am
Guility of the crime that's now in hand
Such a nice day, throw your life away
Such a nice day, let it go
Cold in his eyes I can't believe it
Cold in his heart and soul
Heart and soul

Cold man such a cold heart such a
Cold manner why'd you tear yourself apart
Sold in the dark, my soul to keep
Sold in the dark, the longest sleep oh oh

In I come and out you go you get
Here we are again now place your bets
Is this the time the time to win or lose ?
Is this the time, the time to choose ?
Cold in his eyes, I can't believed it
So deep inside I don't fire
Cold in his heart and soul

Anytime you're on the earth, kiss him
Won't you take me
That's right just keep me going
It's alright Jack, you come the right Jack
Closer and cut out, cut throat, bled out
I'm on your side be on the boat side
I'm alright Jack, you get off my back
I'm no dope I'll give you hope
He is the rope, He is the rope
My single way

The Unforgettable Fire

Ice, your only rivers run cold
These city lights, they shine
As silver and gold
Duck from the night your eyes as black as coal
Walk on by walk on through
Walk till you run and don't look back
For here I am

Carnival, the wheels fly and the coil as spin
Through alcohol
Red wine that punches the skin
Face to face, in a dry and waterless place
Walk on by, walk on through
So sad to besiege your love so hang on
Stay this time

Stay tonight in a lie
I'm anly asking but I, I think you know
Come on take me away
Come on take me home
Home again

And if the mountains should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear, no not I
Stay this time
Stay tonight in a lie
Ever after is loving time
And if you save your love
Save your tear
Don't push me too far
Don't push me too far
Tonight
Tonight

Promenade

Earth, sky, scenery, is she coming back again
Men of straw, snooker hall
Words that build or destroy, dirt dry
Bone, sand and stone
Barbed wire fence cut me down
I'd like to be around in a spiral staircase
To the higher ground
And I like a firework, explode
Roman, candle, lightning, lights up the sky
In cracked streets trample under foot
Sidestep, sidewalk
I see you stare into open space
Have I got closer now, behind the face
Oh, tell me, Cherry dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up through spiral staircase to the higher ground
Slide show, seaside town
Coca cola, football
Radio, radio, radio, radio

4th Of July

instrumental

Bad

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If you could, yes I would

If I could I would let it go
Surrender, dislocate

If I could throw this lifeless
Lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away

Into the night and through the rain
Into the half light and through the flame
If I could - through myself, set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away

See you break, breakaway
Into the light and to the day
To let it go and so to find a way
To let it go and so to find a way
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping

If you should ask then maybe they tell you what I
Would say
True colours fly in blue and black
Blue silken sky and burning flag
Colours clash, collide in blood shot eyes
If I could you know I would, if I could I would
Let it go this desperation
Dislocation, separation, condemnation, revelation
In templation, isolation, desolation
Let it go, and so find a way
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping, of no no

Indian Summer Sky

In the ocean cuts ring deep, the sky
Like there I don't know why
In the forest there's a clearing
I run there towards the light, sky
It's a blue sky

In the earth the hole deep deep decide
If I could I would
Up for air to swim against the tide
Hey hey hey, up towards the sky
It's a blue sky

To lose along the way
The spark that set the flame
To flicker and to fade
On this the longest day

So wind go through to my heart
So wind blow through my soul
So wind go through to my heart
So wind blow through my soul
So wind go through to my heart
So wind blow in my soul


You give yourself to this the longest day
You give yourself you give it all away

Two rivers run too deep
The seasons change and so do I
The light that strikes the tallest trees
The light away for I, the light away
Up towards the sky
It's a blue sky.

Elvis Presley And America

You know - And your sky is feeling blue
And your heart - So cold when I'm with you
And you feel like no-one told you to
And your time is your side
And your time - Oh don't talk to me

And you feel like sentimental
But you don't care
If I just share it in your heart

Hopelessly
I'm breaking through you and me

And you found out
Where you were going, where to?
And you're through with me
But I know that you'll be back for more

You know - I don't no - one told you how
You know - And you wipe the sweat
Off your white brow
And you care - And no - one told
You tired
And your heart - Is left out from the side
And the rain beats down
And the shame goes on
And this rain keeps on coming down
And this shame

Then I can feel like I feel before
Like it hurts now and I see the floor
And you pick me up
Bits and pieces
On this floor

MLK (Martin Luther King)

Sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realised
If the thundercloud passes rain
So let in rain
Rain down on he
So let it be, so let it be
Sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realised
If the thundercoud passes rain
So let it rain
Let it rain, rain on he
