Am I Right?

Wanderin' through the back roads

And the rain comes rushin' down

To resolve your love

For this man in his twenties

Am I right?

Am I wrong?

Or am I just dreaming?

Climbing up the back stairs

There's a chill wind in the air

I wrap up from the cold

Pull the blind in the window

Who was here?

Was it you?

Or am I just dreaming?

Look at all the lonely people

Walking miles around the town

I can see the old cathedral

But I have to play it down

Boats along the river

Setting up their sails

And life carries on as normal

Although you're not around

Waiting at the bus stop

Laughing off the rain

Shaking their umbrellas

'Til it starts again

Flowers in the water

Floating off downstream

Paper in the gutter

Blowing in the breeze

Am I right?

Am I wrong?

Or am I just dreaming?

Look at all the lonely people

Walking miles around the town

I can see the old cathedral

But I have to play it down

Boats along the river

Setting up their sails

And life carries on as normal

Although you're not around

Waiting at the bus stop

Laughing off the rain

Shaking their umbrellas

'Til it starts again

Flowers in the water

Floating off downstream

Paper in the gutter

Blowing in the breeze

Wanderin' through the back roads

And the rain comes rushin' down

To resolve your love

For this man in his twenties

Am I right?

Am I wrong?

Or am I just dreaming?

Love To Hate You

I'm crazy flowing over with ideas

A thousand ways to woo a lover so sincere?

Love and hate, what a beautiful combination

Sending shivers up and down my spine

For every Casanova that appears

My sense of hesitation disappears

Love and hate, what a beautiful combination

Sending shivers up and down my spine

And the lovers that you sent for me

Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee

So I return them to the sender

And the note attached will read

How I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

Oh you really still expect me to believe

Every single letter I receive

Sorry you, what a shameful situation

Sending shivers up and down my spine

Ooh I like to read a murder mystery

I like to know the killer isn't me

Love and hate, what a beautiful combination

Sending shivers, make me quiver

Feel it sliver up and down my spine

And the lovers that you sent for me

Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee

So I return them to the sender

And the note attached will read

How I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

And the lovers that you sent for me

Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee

So I return them to the sender

And the note attached will read

How I love to hate you

I love to hate you

And the lovers that you sent for me

Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee

So I return them to the sender

And the note attached will read

How I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

I love to hate you

Turns The Love To Anger

Lest we forget

The speed at which the world is turning

Careering through space and time

On her fatalistic journey

Ooh it scares me half to death

That we tear ourselves apart

A war of love or religion

Close your eyes to the screaming

Now are we pleased?

How are we free?

See how this obsession (obsession)

Turns the love to anger

East calling west

Falling onto stony ground

We are lost in our vision

We are primitive and fearless

We send our message of confusion

Across the great divide

With our eyes full of wonder

Still the world goes spinnin' by (spinnin' by)

Now are we pleased?

How are we free?

See how this obsession (obsession)

Turns the love to anger

Love is where the dream should lie

It's not for us to reason why

Or to ponder over strategy

So come with us and take a ride

Somewhere in the big blue sky

Before it's too late

It's too late

Hope you find it baby

What you're lookin' for

Doesn't really matter

If you're rich or poor

'Cause you've had your day

Yes you had your day

Now are we pleased?

How are we free?

See how this obsession (obsession)

Turns the love to anger

Now are we pleased?

How are we free?

See how this obsession (obsession)

Turns the love to anger

Siren Song

Ever faithful I endure

To listen for the sound of the siren song

Ragged whispers of imprisioned sisters

Cutting through real life, drawing me nearer

The color of the pure in soul

Like water shall fill the cloudless sky

Try to feel the splendor of it all

Embrace the honesty of nightfall

Try to feel the anguish of it all

And wrap yourself up in every facet of emotion

Oh oh oh

Hearts that cry diamond tears

Spirits that walk for a thousand years

Hear them calling on that darkest morning

Pulling me under, my thoughts disappear

The color of the pure in soul

Like water shall fill the cloudless sky

Try to feel the splendor of it all

Embrace the honesty of nightfall

Try to feel the anguish of it all

And wrap yourself up in every facet of emotion

Oh oh oh

The color (the color) of the pure in soul

Like water (like water) shall fill the cloudless sky

Try to feel the splendor of it all

Embrace the honesty of nightfall

Try to feel the anguish of it all

And wrap yourself up in every facet of emotion

Oh oh oh

Try to feel the splendor of it all

Embrace the honesty of nightfall

Can you feel love?

Can you feel joy?

Can you feel pain?

Perfect Stranger

Hell I gave up my time

For a no-good affair

You'd think I'd learned by now

To be taken in

By a perfect stranger

That I had the know how

Still, more fool me

For kidding myself

That's the way it should be

Maybe I should grow up

Would I feel confined to the same space?

Or would I feel

That I talked myself into a corner?

So long, you're no friend of mine

You're false and unkind

You're indestructible

No place I'd rather be

Than in the ring with you

We'd go twenty rounds

Still, more fool me

For killing myself

That's the way it should be

Maybe I should grow up

Would I feel confined to the same space?

Or would I feel

That I talked myself into a corner?

I see the sky move above me

But I just can't take control

What a sweet sensation

Woah oh

Aha, love

Sweet sweet love

Hell I gave up my time

For a no-good affair

You'd think I'd learned by now

To be taken in

By a perfect stranger

That I had the know how

Still, more fool me

For kidding myself

That's the way it should be

Maybe I should grow up

Would I feel confined to the same space?

Or would I feel (say goodbye stranger)

That I talked myself into a corner?

Home

I ain't never goin' home

'Cause I'm having a good time

I ain't never goin' home

'Cause my time is come

I'll wait for the winter

To lie at my door

White stretches out before me

Leads me to the hall

White circles play within my mind

Ices over and freezes life

Time will come, time will come, time will fall

Bringing the world to its feet

Bringing the world to its feet

I ain't never turnin' back

'Cause I've come this far

And I'm lost within my tracks

I will follow the North Star

I'll wait 'til the springtime

Is breathing at my door

The wilderness before me

Heeds the lion's roar

White circles play within my mind

Ices over and freezes life

Time will come, time will come, time will fall

Bringing the world to its feet

Bringing the world her hands and her knees

I'll wait 'til the winter

Is lying at my door

Time stretches out before me

A stone's throw from the door

White circles play within my mind

Ices over and freezes life

Time will come, time will come, time will fall

Bringing the world to its feet

Bringing the world her hands and her feet

Bringing the world to its feet
