Through the sleepless nights I cry for you And wonder who Is kissing you Oh, these sleepless nights Will brake my heart in two Somehow, through the day I don't give in I hide the tears That wait within Oh, these sleepless nights Will break my heart again W...

Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through for you ~~~♫♫♫ ~~~ Light up your fa...

Now everybody's breakin' up somebody else's home, before somebody else starts breaking up their own. I get you in my dreams. You should hear the things you say. I's not that it's so much fun, but it's safer that way. Sneaky feeling, sneaky feelings, you can't...

Here lies the powder and perfume The pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room And it's so like Candy Here lies the lipstick and the face The coloured tablets keep it all in place And it's so like Candy So like Candy CHORUS What did I do to make her go Wh...

Do. Do do do do do. So young, we've discovered. Got them so confused. Don't mind putting the time in. It's shocking. That's what they all say now when we're walking hand in hand As one, you and I. Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, you said it's timed out We've got them han...

Poor head Can hardly move my lips for speaking I said So, what is this thing I cannot explain? I'd blame all the things I feel but can't quite place Perhaps they're written on my face Someone took the words away Why don't you speak up and say what you mean? S...

Hang my head and shut my eyes What kind of justice is this? Fool I was, I thought that you fought fire with fire Got to be more than just a soul for hire Speaking for myself I wouldn't take the fame, the fees, the glory For whoring in the practice of the law...

You like coffee and you like tea Much more than you like me And everybody says watch out yeah For the sour milk-cow blues You like your coffee just a little too sweet Without your sugar life is incomplete And everybody says watch out yeah For the sour milk-cow...

Oh, it was such a sparkling day That I should be singing its praises Just to catch my senses as they slip away But my sentences and phrases Are about as worthless as wonder can be And there are words that I could say Perhaps I lack the sense of occasion...

Speak darkly, my angel Or do I have to plead? The sweetness has gone out of it And all that's left is bitter, barren greed A needy lover With her almost vanished liar Entangled as the gloom Is strangled by the clinging brier That ventures out to gather in the...

The spell that you cast Seems to be wearing off fast (The spell that you cast) Come back baby, cos I don't think I can last (The spell that you cast) And I wonder whether You got some other kind of lover That you like to please Better than me I don't think I c...

I want a girl to make a mess To do no wrong she must confess And then perhaps hitch up her dress 'Cos when the flashbulbs explode She's such a sensitive soul... I want a girl who is helpless and frail Who won't pull on my ponytail I want a girl who has no pas...

I knew of two sisters whose name it was Christmas And one was named Dawn of course, the other one was named Eve I wonder if they grew up hating the season Of the good will that lasts till the Feast of St. Stephen For that is the time to eat, drink and be merr...

I'm going to make you even fear the dream you dream So don't even think about it don't make a wish You think that I don't see you as you trawl those young weak fish Hooked on those poor wonders, 'til they want you alone Though they can't tell a cuckoo-clock fr...

The stamping ground, The stamping ground. All your old gang Still hang around. Coming in with the same blokes, Going home with the same jokes, If you ever go missing I know where you'll be found : The stamping ground. The big fella on the front door knows your...

Tempest blows up from a squall Past the Cape of Bad Conscience into the Gulf of the Cauldron Roars over the coastline to batter and flatten Exposing the roots like in the dyed hair of slattern The scrapper and mauler in a rope ring this small Outside the wind...

Step inside love, let me find you a place Where all the cares of the day Will be carried away By the smile on your face We are together now and forever Come what may Step inside love and stay Step inside love Step inside love Step inside love I want you to st...

People talkin', tryin' to break us up Why don't they let us be Sticks and stones may break my bones But talk don't bother me (No) People talkin', tryin' to break us up When they know that I love you so So I don't care what the people might say I'm neve...

Still These few lines I'll devote To a marvelous girl covered up with my coat Pull it up to your chin I'll hold you until the day will begin Still Lying in the shadows this new flame will cast Upon everything we carry from the past You were made of every lov...
