Mother take that ride
You got in my mind
Tell'em what you found
Write it down
What you have is enough
What you want with so much stuff
What you need is a hug
From a passenger you love
One you love
One you love
One you love
One you love
Write a book
Change your name
Run a thousand miles away
Bite the hook
Change your game
In the end, it's all the same
Happy ever after
Dancing with disaster
Hold me close and listen to the song
Why did we wait so long?
Why did we wait so long?
Once upon a cold and starless night
Saw a vision or a trick of light
We know there's nothing wrong
Days are short nights are long
Answer me this question then I'm gone
Ohhh, why did we wait so long?
Ohhh, why did we wait so long?
Ohhh, why did we wait so long?
Ohhh, why did we wait so long?
Ohhh, why did we wait so long?

Another day I feel the weight of the atmosphere's pressure
And I can't escape
I try to run, I try to find my feet
My soul is sticking to the street
I get a move
I got to get myself to clean my shoes
And take the cynic route
I was afar, I'm following the star
Home is anywhere you are
And everything is falling into place
And then we move again
So take the curve and move along
Until we're gone, we're moving on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
I feel alive, I am aware of the colors in the sky
And where the birds don't fly
And if the night is coming pretty soon
I'm walking through the dark with you
I've got to play
I've got to listen to my toy today
On the motorway
And I could feel, the ground beneath my wheels
Putting me back in my place
And everything is falling into place
And then we move again
So take the curve and move along
Until we're gone, we're moving on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on
Another day, another place where I can find my way
Take the avenue way
And I know exactly where to go
Home is anywhere you stay
And everything is falling into place
And then we move again
So take the curve and move along
Until we're gone, we're moving on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
I feel alive, I am aware of the colors in the sky
And where the birds don't fly
And if the night is coming pretty soon
I'm walking through the dark with you

Celebrate
Don't be late
Finish what's on your plate
Be the change you wanna see
Seek the truth
Set it free
And I wanna tell you
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
Oh!
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
Why does the time move so fast?
Precious things never last
Figure out
Don't forget
Only love
No regrets
And I gotta tell you
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
Oh!
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
All of the things you never noticed
All of the lines you cling to that don't mean a thing
All of the dates that you were late for
All of the rounds you should've paid for
And I wanna tell you
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
Oh!
This is a reminder
This is a reminder
Oh!
This is a reminder
This is a reminder

Bumper car me left or right
I'll take a thousand knocks
There's a happy man in there
And you won't blink your eyes
Like all the things you lost before
I'm right where you left me, you know?
Like all the things you found
Don't taste them just swallow them whole
I forfeit my time
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Lift me up or tear me down
I'll stand right up again
There's a happy soul in there
But you won't let him in
Like all the things we say before we
Crumble and fall to the floor
Like all the things we try
I know where it's headed and so
I forfeit my time
And wait while you remake your mind up
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh, I will be right by you where you stand
I will deliver
Where you stand I will not fall
Where you stand there is no ocean
Nor a river, nor a shore
I fall into line
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
I forfeit my time
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh, I will be right by you where you stand
Oh, I will be right by you where you stand

In the middle of the night I hear you
Talking in your sleep the same old story
All I know
It's not me
You've been talking to
All the wishes all the joy and wonder
Sleeping with the fishes six feet under
All I want
Can't be done
Locked without a key
Ohhh where you going now?
Don't let your heart run out on me
Don't set the horses free
We never laid it on the line
No time
No warning sign
In the middle of the day I find you
Turning round the tables and turning off your mind in rewind
You can't find a silent night
All the paper lying on the ground
Buring pages and those spinning heads
Is something wrong
In their lives?
We need paradise
Oohh Where you going wrong?
Don't let your heart run out on me
Don't set the horses free
We never laid it on the line
No time
No warning sign
Where you going wrong?
Where you going wrong?
Where you going wrong?
Where you going wrong?
Don't let your heart run out on me
Don't set the horses free
We never laid it on the line
No time
No warning sign

You can say what you want
Say what you want
But it won't change a thing
Won't change a thing
You can say what you want
Say what you want
But it won't change a thing
Won't change a thing
Cause I saw you with another guy
I saw you with another guy
Yeah, I saw you with another guy
Holding hands, kissing eye to eye
You can cry all your like
Cry all your like
But it don't change a thing
Don't change a thing
You can cry all your like
Cry all your like
But it don't change a thing
Don't change a thing
Cause I saw you with another guy
I saw you with another guy
Holding hands, kissing eye to eye
Yeah, I saw you with another guy
Cause I saw you with another guy
I saw you with another guy
Yeah, I saw you with another guy
Holding hands, kissing eye to eye
You can say what you want
Say what you want
But it won't change a thing
Won't change a thing
You can say what you want
Say what you want
But it won't change a thing
Won't change a thing

Once a while
I see what's going on
And disappear
Into the world behind the one that's here
It never lasts
As long as a dream can last
And then I'm back
Into the ways
That make the days go fast
So grab my hand and make it last
And hold me close
Don't leave so soon
Let all the flowers bloom
And don't let go
Or I will blow
Away into a different room
Is it so strange?
Tell me you feel the same
Or shut my mouth
I can't pretend I haven't said it now
Let's just pretend
Our numbered days won't end
Infinity
This endless space and time four you and me
And yours and mine, forever we
Will hold me close
Don't leave so soon
Let all the flowers bloom
And don't let go or I will blow
Away into a different room
And there's no door to get me back
To get me back there
There's no window to see
I tell myself that it was no, that it was nowhere
And all becomes a dream
Hold me close
Don't leave so soon
Let all the flowers bloom
And don't let go or I will blow
Away into a different room

From the baby in the womb
To the burden in the room
From the body in the tomb
To the man on the moon
From the bottom of the hill
To the top of the hill
From the hole in your head
When you can't sit still
All wrapped up in a cotton bud
Watch the sun go down
And watch it come back up
Take another sip from the broken cup
Drippin' little tap keeps me woken up
Oh oh
New shoes, old blues
Walking round the streets of London town singing
Up on the roof
If I lose, you lose
You and I could spend our time just lying dreaming
Of Hollywood
With these new shoes
From the people in the front
To the people in the back
To the people in the back,
Can you hear the stack?
From the down and the out
To the uptown girl
From the daisy chain to the string of pearls
All wrapped up in a cotton bud
Watch the sun go down and watch it come back up
Oh oh
New shoes, old blues
Walking round the streets of London town singing
Up on the roof
If I lose, you lose
You and I could spend our time just lying dreaming
Of Hollywood
With these new shoes

I didn't ever mean to steal from you
But how could I resist?
When everything you are and say and do
Is perfect as it is
I didn't really mean to go this far
But now I've broken in
And now I wanna stay and stay away
From every place I've been
You see
These old record sleeves
Don't keep me warm at all
The TV won't answer me
Like all the people on my wall
I only want to try to be your friend
If you don't have enough
Sometimes I think you know that in the end
That you and I are us
You see
These old record sleeves
Don't keep me warm at all
The TV won't answer me
Like all the people on my wall
And I don't mind if you don't write
Or call on me
One day the faces on my wall
Will fall for me
I don'I how any choice a little voice
Says I belong to you
And you won't ever be rid of me
No matter what you do
You see
These old record sleeves
Don't keep me warm at all
The TV won't answer me
Like all the people on my wall

When everything
When everything was out of reach
The sky was up
The ground was right below our feet
We played in boxes
We played in boxes
Cardboard boxes
We played in boxes
We played in boxes
Cardboard boxes
We wasted time
We wasted time before we knew
Don't punch the clock
Or time will run away with you
We live in boxes
We live in boxes
Concrete boxes
We live in boxes
We live in boxes
Concrete boxes
Now your childhood is over
You're a man they have said
You silently shoulder
All the plans they have made
You pack down your boxes and ask
Who am I?
The biggest trick
The biggest trick they play on you
To make you think
The show won't go on without you
We go in boxes
We go in boxes
Wooden boxes
We go in boxes
We go in boxes
Wooden boxes
Now the room has been emptied
I'm alone in my bed
The heart is a box
Which the soul has fled
The spell has been broken
And the last word is said

Life doesn't fit on the big screen
And I'm just a bit part in the scene
Sitting in the dark in the back row
Nobody's watching me
The lights all come on
And life carries on
I still love you
On the big screen
Ohh, on the big screen
This won't turn out like the movies
Cause actors wash off their bruises
Believing all the madness
We're over the gallows they nailed me on
They cut from the scene
And wake from the dream
And I still love you
On the big screen
Ohh, on the big screen
The big screen's aflame with desire
While we're fighting fire with fire
What did I just say?
Nobody to care of carry me home
The plans that we make
The last serenade
The roles that we take
The electric parade
I still love you
On the big screen
Ooh, on the big screen
compositores: Fran Healy
You were standing next to me
Reciting poetry
Looking very pale
Like you lost a nail
But somehow beautiful
And beautiful you're still
As I look at you today
On the anniversary
On the anniversary
The anniversary
You were walking next to me
Clutching a diary
Trying to be heard
Without a single word
I knew you would leave soon
When he walked in the room
I still remember you this way
On the anniversary
On the anniversary
The anniversary
You were lying next to me
Breathing quietly
Looking very pale
I think you lost a nail
And somewhere in your eyes
You finally realize
I will remember you this way
On the anniversary
On the anniversary
The anniversary

All these monochrome days
Are making me blue
And it's on these days
My mind strays to thoughts of you
Do you think of me too?
I think me and you
Are just like
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
We're just
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
A silver telephone rings
A picture of you
And I'm taken away from this humdrum day
To someplace new
But I don't hear you
I'll never get through
Just like
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
We're just
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
Just like parallel lines
Yours will never meet mine
Just like
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
We are
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
Just like
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines
We are
Parallel, parallel, parallel, parallel
Parallel lines

My heart is so full of love
My heart is so beautiful
Tell me a number that you think you know
Let's find out if we're compatible
My love is an open book
An open book with its pages torn
Stick with me and I will keep you warm
I'll give you shelter from the coming storm
If you wanna know the way I feel
You can climb aboard my ferris wheel
We'll go round and round
So far off the ground
These days seem to go so quick
These days disappear so fast
All is girl to make you see
Bottom things that will never last
So why don't we disappear
Just like them between the tracks
Maybe you and I, we won't come back
I'd take a lie after all those facts
If you wanna know the way I feel
You can climb aboard my ferris wheel
We'll go round and round
So far off the ground
When I make a sound
If you wanna know the way I feel
You can climb aboard my ferris wheel
We'll go round and round
So far off the ground
When I make a sound
