Ride on the far away ocean Break on the city shore Rise on the wind’s wild notion Dreamed by the open door A far cry from this station A place on the underground Big men worn down Cash Nation See you on the turnaround Go home boys home Go home Begin where you plan to leave from Ghost with a hungry smile Last breath on a cold glass frosting Make yourself up in your own mind From the side To the side On the inside A spot Mister Anna found No child is a child forever See you on the turnaround Go home boys home Go home Sean One Shoe says he knows you When I grew up the World got bigger too Ride on the far away ocean Break on the city shore Rise on the wind’s wild notion Dreamed by the open door Sean One Shoe says he knows you

London bus pass on the table Yellow brolly by the door People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill Unmarked cars on every corner Killer rainbows in the street People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill London whitewash Daily paper Blue transparent window panes People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill Meet the man who sells the flavour Ice cream Smack scream Take away People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill London black cab Engine running Sleeping dogs Lay lady lie People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill Home is where the broken heart is Everything you do is right People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill London bus pass on the table Yellow brolly by the door People say they will We all live on Hungry Hill People always will We all live on Hungry Hill

If I told you my life story If I told you not to worry If I said Love is for the taking Hearts are for the breaking through Better to be safe than sorry If I told you my life story If I told you not to hurry If I said Love is everlasting Hearts are for the passing through Let the whole world come in glory I thought I would know for sure by now I thought I would be with you by now Diane is the moon she said If I told you my life story If I told you not to worry If I said Love is for the taking Hearts are for the breaking through Better to be safe than sorry I thought I would know for sure by now I thought I would be with you by now Diane is the moon she said

Happy has a silver gun he holds up to his head He says I wish I was a sinner Living in a castle dark with the things nobody said We could all be good time sinners The light began to fall under a bridge down by the river I heard him talk about the girl inside the wall It was the source of my obsession Happy doesn’t see you when he looks at you that way He feels the whole world is his prison Happy likes to please you when he comes around to say The best of friends in a new position The stuff that makes up dreams through the fabric at the seams Sweating in an old skin The desert sand is dry Amanda Barefoot was my reason Happy doesn’t see you when he looks at you that way The closing door is a mystery open Happy likes to tease you when he comes around to play Hiding blue raindrops in the ocean The soft room near to sleep where the lines divide and meet Temper the attraction Mother the excess Amanda Barefoot was my treason Happy has a silver bullet he keeps under his bed He says I wish I was a winner Living in a castle dark with the things nobody said We could all be big time winners The light began to fall under a bridge down by the river I heard him talk about the girl inside the wall It was the source of my obsession I watched a white dove sail I heard a woman call The night was dark and the story ended

This is a happy house We see ourselves in those who come to play So happy here We see ourselves in those who come to stay Two boys in ecstasy One to one and one of them is me and only you Take me but don’t take my love for real I hide behind the way you feel This is a happy house We see ourselves In those who come to play So happy here We see ourselves in those who come to stay Two boys in later years Lost for words and fighting back the tears and all for you Take me but don’t take my love for free We see the same things differently This is a happy house We see ourselves in those who come to play So happy here We see ourselves in those who come to stay Heaven she said is just one breath away Heaven she said is just one breath Just one breath One breath away This is a happy house We see ourselves in those who come to play So happy here We see ourselves in those who come to stay I love you in a special way

Walk in shallow streams As evening falls Across these stones Water breaks uneven Listen as the wind drops Close to my ear Take these claws Wrap your love around them Now the barriers Are common ground Free up the chains The walls are silent Lead the way We are two from here Where you go I will follow I was like you were I was like you were now

Out of my head Into the light Show them yourself Out of my mind Into the light Show them yourself Caught in a Rictus Out of my head Show them yourself Caught in a Rictus Out of my mind Show them yourself Show them Out of my life Same old story Set the moment Did you see them? Same old story Slip the moment Did you see them? Caught in a Rictus Set the moment Did you see them? Caught in a Rictus Slip the moment Did you see them? Did you? Same old story Steal from thunder One together Tell them nothing Steal from thunder All together Tell them nothing Caught in a Rictus One together Tell them nothing Caught in a Rictus All together Tell them nothing Tell them Steal from thunder Out of my head Into the light Show them yourself Out of my mind Into the light Show them yourself Caught in a Rictus Out of my head Show them yourself Caught in a Rictus Out of my mind Show them yourself Show them Out of my life

Drop the penny Change rolls round Over here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Tell the story Change rolls round Far from here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Who in the World has been taken from you? Who in the World has been taken? Move the mountain Change rolls round Far from here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Who in the World has taken from you? Who in the World has taken? Drop the penny Change rolls round Over here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows

I sent you a letter A plain white paper note I showed you a picture Slow China in a boat I think about it all the time You are the first thing on my mind I will no longer Pour water on the fire Burn the green wood Slow China My desire I think about it all the time You are the first thing on my mind I say I love you The whole world listens I say I love you The whole world knows When we come closer There is no hiding When we come closer There is no hiding near Slow China I was running Through the stations under stone Draw my own lines Slow China Half way home I think about it all the time You are the first thing on my mind I say I love you The whole world listens I say I love you The whole world knows When we come closer There is no hiding When we come closer There is no hiding near Slow China here

Temperature is rising Fire went down to Hell Four came back this morning The Truth to tell Avalon has fallen To the wicked and their wives Promises were broken Hollow victor lies Temperature is rising Fire went down to Hell Four came back this morning The Truth to tell Avalon has fallen To the wicked and their wives Promises were broken Least among you rise Eve of Solution Mister Wise Temperature is rising Fire went down to Hell Four came back this morning The Truth to tell Avalon has fallen To the wicked and their wives Promises were broken Open up your eyes Eve of Solution Mister Wise

I dreamed I was flying Up in the air and flying Call me down Something you were saying I thought you were saying Call me down I am taken Flying free I am taken I dreamed I was falling Out of the sky and falling Call me down Something you were saying I thought you were saying Call me down I am taken Falling free I am taken Open your eyes I see you All The World believes you Call me down I am taken Flying free I am taken Falling free I am taken
