Winds of approaching night – Lyrics All our wings Spread out for flight All chest thrust out in pride Whether to play or ride Those winds of approaching night Those winds of approaching night In a man’s meditation He’s lost amid all he’s made And he stands indignation To cast off body and trade To cast off body and trade We will vanish with our breath And reach with all things to end To clutch a lucky death And send all our dreams to mend And send all our dreams to mend All our wings Spread out for flight All chest thrust out in pride Whether to play or ride Those winds of approaching night Those winds of approaching night

Take a seat 04:06
Take a seat – Lyrics Don’t rush if your not coming Don’t shout words not worth whispering You say it not for telling Need it to start your mending You left this place in the nick of time Like a bird flies to separate from winter time Do you hear the idea shivering as it stands outside That maybe this time you don’t need to pick a side Come and take a seat next to me There’s still one thing in this world that’s free Come and take a seat next to me I’ve been saving it for you All of your life We’re seven more years older Since we started to make it over Comfy in our selves we were then Now we find it hard in our own skin We left this place in the nick of time Like a bird flies to separate from winter time Do you hear the idea shivering as it stands outside That maybe, this time, you don’t need to pick a side Come and take a seat next to me There’s still one thing in this world that’s free Come and take a seat next to me I’ve been saving it for you Come and take a seat next to me There’s still one thing in this world that’s free Come and take a seat next to me I’ve been saving it for you All of your life

If I ever did find All my memories allude me So how am I to find Inspiration in the water Like pirates of my mind In quiet desperation I release my grip So I might know how it feels If I ever did find If I ever did find Would I know it Would I know If I ever did find Would I know it Would I know Can I convince you to join me Listening to the ways The people and their stories Play out every day In quiet contemplation We may find the key So we might know how it feels If we ever did find If w ever did find Would we know it Would we know If I ever did find Would I know it Would I know If I ever did find Would I know it Would I know

Step and stumble – Lyrics Its been a long day My feet won’t walk and my tongues dry I need to fill my boots So I step and stumble in an old dive There’s a stool with my name So I squeeze to the bar to get red eyed Then I hear the sound The duke box playing While the people falling down Their smashing tables to the ground There’s someone shouting out Leave me alone There aint no way im going back home So strike up a word With a man without looking at his face While the band can’t be heard You can bet their keeping pace Well its bottles up all round Until the lights are slowly dimming down And then I turned around I realised that my hat was on fire I was talking to a lier My drink had expired Leave me alone There aint no way im going back home Aint no way im going back home Aint no way im going back home Leave me alone There aint no way im going back home

Five more years Far right over there Those suits with the neat cropped hair Honourless gentlemen That aint sentimental Hold us in a regime of old While their thirsty eyes watch the pennies flow Any source of our lands pride They pull it apart and sell it far and wide We better hunker down Five years and there will be nothing around We better hunker down Five years and there will be nothing around Listen people what you done You’ve gone and voted for the wrong one There barely was a right way But now your rights have gone away Sell out or get out Sell out or get out We better hunker down Five years and there be nothing around We better hunker down Five years and there be nothing around Five more years Five more years Five more years

Can you Decide Can you decide for me Every time I tell my feet what to do I lie to my Shoes And the breath that wants to scream from my lungs Only quiets my tongue Can you decide for me I don’t have what it takes Please decide for me I’ll only make a mistake You already know I was never much on my own Inside I picture your voice Saying the words Just come back home I wonder to and from wander lust I sleep where I lay The direction back is in front I just look away So please decide for me I don’t have what it takes Can you decide for me I’ll only make a mistake You already know I was never much on my own Inside I picture your voice Saying the words Oh you You already know I was never much on my own Inside I picture your voice Saying the words Just come back home

Another Town 03:57
Another Town I wish I could put a cloth over all their noise Just let it settle down on their cheeky mouths Now I can’t speak for all them boys But im sure I can’t sing without a mouth Coz I wont be here long I’ve just come to play my song I come to another town Another I wont settle down If it settles for me ill try not to bring it down I try not to bring it down Yeah im sitting here and playing in the sun I play for you like a play for everyone If you feel im begging take your feet and pass But if you like them shoes sit and make them last Coz I wont be here long I’ve just come to play my song I’ve come to another town Another I wont settle down If it settles for me ill try not to bring it down I try not to bring it down I try not to bring it down I try not to bring you down Don’t want to bring you down You say we’ve met twice I’ve never seen you once Well I might recognise a little further on Cause I can’t ease my mind Feels like their coming up behind I run to another town Another I won’t settle down If you settle for me ill try not to bring you down I try not to bring you down I try not to bring you down I don’t want to bring you down I don’t want to bring you down

Soothing Whisper I pulled over To see how sincere that look was Now made sober By yours eyes I hide into The cold and lonely Is all that you left me with Those lies you told me Not worth the air you whispered in my ears Your whisper soothed I remember how your whisper soothed Now so far from me I cannot sooth I remember how your whisper soothed I fell under Your feet that tread so hard upon My heart bursts open And spreads out all the memories Of when we’d spoken Softer sounds and passion in our touch I long for Now so far from me I cannot feel it Your whisper soothed I remember how your whisper soothed Now so far from me I cannot sooth I remember how your whisper soothed Your whisper soothed I remember how your whisper soothed Now so far from me I cannot sooth I remember how your whisper soothed

With draw 04:13
With Draw Pass me the joint I need to withdraw myself Pass me the joint I need to discover I’m somebody else It feels like bruising time In this party line We better leave all business aside As long we’re providing Enough time for the biding We squeeze the juice Open up and the let the vibes in Step into the slack Their all dancing piggy back There’s no room for gloom In this darkened room All you got to do Is let the move bloom Pass me the joint I need to withdraw myself Pass me the joint I need to discover I’m somebody else Somebody else stepped into the room They said you can’t do what you do He said its ok im getting old anyway He slides the dice to his right And he rolls away Those pretty legs Are wrapped around every word she said Sending him down in a suicide twirl And his tongue trips Over her golden curls Nows its time Pass me the joint I need to withdraw myself Pass me the joint I need to discover I’m somebody else I need to, oh I need to I need to withdraw myself I need to, oh I need to I need to withdraw myself

Catching the catcher Every day she plays the catcher She keeps me dangling on the line Held in her current ever flowing I’m sinking with her on my mind Her bate never satisfies my hunger But I revel in the pain on the hook The lines held strong by my wonder One word from her is all it took I try to fight the desire Not to cut myself on her wire I’ve found a way to stay alive Catching the catcher is the only way to survive Plenty of fish in the sea Flapping breathless all around me Left with scars and no memories But I’m sure that won’t happen to me No there won’t be no scars on me I try to fight the desire Not to cut myself on her wire I’ve found a way to stay alive Catching the catcher is the only way to survive I try to fight the desire Not to cut myself on her wire I’ve found a way to stay alive Catching the catcher is the only way to survive Catching the catcher is the only way to survive Catching the catcher is the only way to survive Catch me if you can You better run run oh run Catching the catcher is the only way to survive Catch me if you can Catching the catcher is the only way to survive You know I’m going to catch the catcher

Clicking needles All your time spent fashioning Your style to a fashion All the while nothing seems to fit Your thread runs short Weave your characters into tails Hide behind handbags on the sale Hear the sound clicking needles knitting time Wrote the plan on a beer soaked coaster Now in hand meanings drenched away Accidental interruptions breaking down Leave your mark oh so quietly stand so long It’s a small world now my steps have grown What you’ve done with the time that you had Has brought you here with all that you know What you’ve done with the time that you had Has brought you here with all that you know All that you know
