Hush-a-bye Don't you cry Go to sleepy little baby Go to sleepy little baby When you wake You shall have All the pretty little horsies All the pretty little horsies Blacks and bays Dapples and greys All the pretty little horsies Way down yonder In the meadow Lies a poor little lamby Bees and butterflies Flitting round his eyes Poor little thing is crying "Mammy" Go to sleep Don't you cry Rest your head upon the clover Rest your head upon the clover In your dreams You shall ride While your mammy's watching over Blacks and bays Dapples and greys All the pretty little horsies All the pretty little horsies All the pretty little horsies All the pretty little horsies
Greeds all gone now, theres no question And I can see you push your hair behind your ears Regain your balance Doesnt matter where she is tonight Or with whoever she spends her time If these arms were meant to hold her They were never meant to hold her so tight For the love of that girl Greeds all gone now, the panic subsides When I could run, pulling arms to love her Try to put myself on on the inside
For the love of that girl Tears swell, you dont know why For the love of that girl They never fall, they can never run dry For the love of that girl
Promise is never over, never questioned it needed reply But she could breathe deep into my neck Let me know Im just on the outside
(chorus)
Greeds all gone now, theres no question And I can see you push your hair behind your ears Regain your balance Doesnt matter where she is tonight Or with whoever she spends her time If these arms were meant to hold her They were never meant to hold her so tight
You said times with me were lots of fun But now funny just aint what you want Yeah my girl, aint that just a little strange There were times youd rather die than leave Now you say: hold on a second here yeah my love aint it all just a little strange When you say: just hold on a second here
Better times are moving up ahead And all sorrow is gone for good Hey my girl, why dont you just let it flow All this time I tried to figure out Just what it takes to live on your cloud yeah my love, I guess I misunderstood When you said; just hold on a second here
If sadness is a colour, then its blue just like your eyes And sorrow can be all over you but it will never tear me down
Better times are moving up ahead And all sorrow is gone for good But hey my love, I guess I misunderstood
If sadness is a colour then its blue just like your eyes And sorrow can be all over you but it will never tear me down If sadness is a colour then its blue just like your eyes And sorrow can be all over you but it will never tear me down
Something's gotten hold of my heart Keeping my soul and my senses apart Something's gotten into my life Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife Turning me up, turning me down Making me smile, making me frown
In a world that was war I once lived in a time That was peace With no trouble at all But then you came my way And a feeling of unknown Shook my heart And made me want you to stay All of my nights And all of my days
I wanna tell you now Something's gotten hold of my hand Dragging my soul to a beautiful land Something's invaded my night Painting my sleep with a colour so bright Changing the grey, changing the blue Scarlet for me, scarlet for you
I've got to know if this is the real thing I've got to know what's making my heart sing, oh yeah A smile and I am lost for a lifetime Each minute spent with you is the right time Every hour (yeah) every day (yeah) You touch me and my mind goes astray And baby yeah, and baby yeah
Something's gotten hold of my hand Dragging my soul to a beautiful land Something's gotten into my life Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife Turning me up, turning me down Making me smile, making me frown
In a world that was war I once lived in a time That was peace With no trouble at all
But then you, you, you Came my way
And a feeling I know Shook my heart And made me want you to stay All of my nights And all of my days
Something's gotten hold of my heart Keeping my soul and my senses apart Something's invaded my night Painting my sleep with a colour so bright Changing the grey, changing the blue Scarlet for me, scarlet for you
Across the oceans Across the seas, Over forests of blackened trees. Through valleys so still we dare not breathe, To be by your side.
Over the shifting desert plains, Across mountains all in flames. Through howling winds and driving rains, To be by your side.
Every mile and every year for every one a little tear. I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.
Into the night as the stars collide, Across the borders that divide forests of stone standing petrified, To be by your side.
Every mile and every year, For every one a single tear. I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.
For I know one thing, Love comes on a wing. For tonight I will be by your side. But tomorrow I will fly.
From the deepest ocean To the highest peak, Through the frontiers of your sleep. Into the valley where we dare not speak, To be by your side.
Across the endless wilderness where all the beasts bow down their heads. Darling I will never rest till I am by your side.
Every mile and every year, Time and Distance disappear I cannot explain this. Dear No, I will not even try.
And I know just one thing, Love comes on a wing and tonight I will be by your side. But tomorrow I will fly away, Love rises with the day and tonight I may be by your side. But tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly.
Our time is done my love We've laid it all to waste One thousand moonlit kisses can't sweeten this bitter taste My desire for you is endless and I'll love you 'till we fall I just don't want you no more and that's the sweetest embrace of all
To think we can find happiness hidden in a kiss Ah, to think we can find happiness that's the greatest mistake there is There is nothing left to cling to babe There is nothing left to soil I just don't want you no more and that's the sweetest embrace of all
Ooohhh where did it begin When all we did was lose There's nothin' left to win
So lay your weapons down they serve no purpose in your hands And if you wanna hold me then go ahead and hold me I won't upset your plans If it's revenge you want then take it babe Or you can walk right out the door I just don't care anymore And that's the sweetest embrace of all
Ooohhh where did it begin When all we did was lose There's nothin' left to win
It's over babe And it really is a shame We are losers you and me babe In a rigged and crooked game My desire for you is endless And I love you most of all I just don't want you no more and that's the sweetest embrace of all
For you dear, I was born For you I was raised up For you I've lived and for you I will die For you I am dying now You were my mad little lover In a world where everybody fucks everybody else over You who are so far from me Far from me So far from me Way across some cold neurotic sea Far from me
I would talk to you of all matter of things With a smile you would reply Then the sun would leave your pretty face And you'd retreat from the front of your eyes I keep hearing that you're doing best I hope your heart beats happy in your infant breast You are so far from me Far from me Far from me
There is no knowledge but i know it There's nothing to learn from that vacant voice That sails to me across the line From the ridiculous to the sublime It's good to hear you're doing so well But really can't you find somebody else that you can ring and tell Did you ever Care for me? Were you ever There for me? So far from me
You told me you'd stick by me Through the thick and through the thin Those were your very words My fair-weather friend You were my brave-hearted lover At the first taste of trouble went running back to mother So far from me Far from me Suspended in your bleak and fishless sea Far from me Far from me
If I needed you would you come to me, Would you come to me, and ease my pain? If you needed me I would come to you I'd swim the seas for to ease your pain
In the night forlorn the morning's born And the morning shines with the lights of love You will miss sunrise if you close your eyes That would break my heart in two
The lady's with me now since I showed her how To lay her lily hand in mine Loop and Lil agree she's a sight to see And a treasure for the poor to find
