Are you over me, it was
a song for all the friends that I’ve let down. You were the best thing,
and I missed it because I didn’t have the guts to say what I meant, I got
on a train and went away because that’s the one thing I can do. Are you
over me? It was a song for all the friends that I’ve let down. You are
the first thing that I think of, because I never have the guts to do what
I want I put it away get on a train because that’s the one thing I can
do. Are you over me? It was a song for all the friends that I’ve let down
Reader
I think I know what’s going
on, and you work yourself up to this every time, and thinking's just too,
much to ask just make another story she'll believe you. I don’t want to
be formulaic, I don’t want to mean anything at all. You and me are never
going to agree so why don’t we call it official, let’s call it the reader
goes first, the reader goes first
Gallery
Snap back a little minute
there and I got my bag turned out the same routine again, its really not
like that darling we were just kids and we were trying to start again.
Taking the first steps. I heard that you needed this and I appreciate that,
I appreciate that. Special dispensation is well and good but we’re not
in a war this isn’t like that. Taking the first steps. And this view of
your back is worth something more than that, there is a picture of this
victory in every wartime gallery. And the back of your hand is a monument
to that, it is a monument to that, it is a monument to that. Croatia calls
me late at night and Israel beckons me, Jerusalem. My list of things to
do before I met you come on let’s learn how to live. Taking the first steps.
Spent my day spurning out this shit from this ditch and I’m fed up with
it. Could have wrote back helped to pick me up your lack of adventure’s
why we lost this war. Taking the first steps. And this view of your back
is worth something more than that, there is a picture of this victory in
every wartime gallery. And the back of your hand is a monument to that,
it is a monument to that, it is a monument to that. You’re in a gallery
you’re in a gallery
Tender Is The Night
The Divers were sick of
the summer, the summer was locked in the shed, the hospital wards and the
fortified floors, and the Doctor was tied to his bed. Who are you at war
with? Who are you at war with? Who are you at war with now? The old man
was out for the doctors, the doctors were out for themselves, the patients
and staff had a fight in the bath, and the Fire Brigade, oh the Fire Brigade.
Who are you at war with? Who are you at war with? Who are you at war with
now?
Fire
If you drive that fast,
you’re bound to get hurt, you can’t not get hurt, and the drugs don’t last
enough time, to make things all right, you were my bright lights, but there’s
no lights tonight. And I lost my confidence, I tried to get it back, I
tried my best to be, the thing you want but drugs don't, make me feel great,
you got so selfish and stayed up too late, for me. Do the things you take
make any difference? Do the things I say make any difference? Have I lost
your heart now? Have I lost your heart now? Am I too much in love? A fire,
in me, for you
New York New York New
York
New York’s a town that I’ve
never visited I’d like to go but I’m too afraid of it, someone was telling
me how bad America is, you ought to go its like our relationship. Collapsing.
Tell me I’m wrong if something’s amiss in this, I’d like to know I won’t
be offended, you don’t know what to say, don’t know what to say, don’t
know what to say what to say to me. Cause we’re collapsing. Let’s move
to New York New York. New York’s a town that I’ve never visited I’d like
to go but I’m too afraid of it, New York’s a town that I’ve never visited
I’d like to go but I’m too afraid of it
