you got lost
you couldn’t find me
I’m right here
come and find me

here is sunlight
here is open space
here’s the reason we came to this place

sea salt drying
like freckles on your face
wind is blowing yesterday away

how I wish that we could stay for a while
how I wish that we could stay for a while
stay forever never change

hold that feeling
everything you said today got me reeling
let’s take it to another place

see the tide rising
the breaking of the waves
let’s go throwing our yesterdays away

how I wish that we could stay for a while
how I wish that we could stay for a while
stay forever never change

this life has got me spinning
in the city tension, feel it building
people riding the wave
on the wheels of stealin’
smiling my way
I can’t shake this feeling

that a fast lane is a dead end street
at the end of the day, they be asking me
for direction
cos’ I got conviction
and all they got was the action

movie starts, music playing
I can’t understand a thing they’re saying
“Who’s your friend ?”
“I saw the resume”
now we shaking hands, but
we got nothing to say

fast lane is a dead end street
at the end of the day, they be asking me
for direction
cos’ I got conviction
and all they got was the action

so line ‘em up
after years have passed
shine ‘em up
take a photograph
one way or another
they’ve settled down,
given up, or burned out

line ‘em up
after years have passed
shine ‘em up
take a photograph
either way they’re bound to settle down
give it up
or try not to drown

stopped short to stop the bleeding
your life is a band-aid
well you’re gonna need it
to patch up your morale
to patch up your dreams
to catch up with yourself
or so it seems

fast lane is a dead end street
at the end of the day, they be asking me
for direction
cos’ I got conviction
and all they got was the action

tonight I might surrender
or die trying to defend us
trying to save my love
from fools like yourselves

there’s always consequences
for those who come to their senses
and I am faced with mine
I’ve taken all I could

the walls are falling
the world revolving, and I
I’m no hero, no
I know

tonight is time to remember
the ones who stood in the trenches
trying to make a life
for fools like myself

and so when the time has come for me
to go through fire like you have been
I hope I will be strong, and make a difference

the sky is falling
the world revolving, and I
I’m no hero, no
I know

that we’re born in a world
that’s torn in two
so what am I to do?

when I know
that I’m no hero, no
I’m no hero

wake up
from this dream
that’s just too good

euphoria changes
always

I was a fool
a child believing in fairy tales

don’t you know
wonders and gifts
are given every day
any day now

cards are dealt
hearts are played
stars will fall
and rise again

a lonely hunter soaring

I was a fool
a child believing in fairy tales

don’t you know
wonders and gifts
are given every day
any day now
any day now

see the hours turn
bright red in the night
where’s my guiding light
I need you tonight

I know you in the day
you are the sun
but darkness always comes
to take you away

the way out is in
or so we learn
as the pages turn
outside within
let the day begin

I’m lying on the floor
cold heart in my hand
carve it out of stone
and put it on a stand

put it back in the ground
see a flower grow
see the petals fall
like tears from a rainbow

the way out is in
or so we learn
as the pages turn
outside within
let the day begin

my heart I lost
but the battle’s won
my heart I lost
all the battles won

the sun always rises
but the miracle is gone
nothing can suprise us
everything’s been done before

everything is ventured
everything is gained
everything discovered
everything explained

see their faces
see how we are
we go without wondering
and without wondering we’ll go far

these streets were empty
when they landed on the moon
when they broke the world record
but now we’ve seen it all before

saw the towers burning
the fifteenth grand slam
saw the revolution
cos’ they’re all televised, today

see their faces
see how we are
we go without wondering
and without wondering we’ll go far

everything that’s happening we’ve seen it all before
everything that’s happening we’ve seen it all before

see it in their faces
there’s nothing that can’t be done
everything is changing
everything WILL come

love
my light
I think of you every night

and every time I feel your breath
deep inside I stop to rest

I rest my heart
I rest my head
I rest my hands
upon your chest

love
my light
I see your face every night

and every night I see your face
I see my place
and stop to rest

I rest my heart
I rest my head
I rest my hands
upon your chest

you got lost
you couldn’t find me
I’m right here
come and find me

silence is golden
well not if it’s cold and uneasy
I’m sitting here
you are near
I feel like a visitor
a visitor

you got lost
you couldn’t find me
I’m right here
come and find me

I’m a visitor
a stranger in this house
seems like noone else around
reach out to me
anything to break the spell
make us well

you got lost
you couldn’t find me
I’m right here
come and find me

the light was grey , on this happy day
Roman Holiday
your eyes shine , meeting mine
on this brief moment in time

they speak to us , the streets , the boys
in their native tongue
their funny ways , the things they say
to make you stay

the fountain bright , it sounds so nice
people flutter round like butterflies
the water blue , painted red for you
it was all over the news

and the people say : throw a coin, look away
you’ll be coming back some day

old and new , this heady brew
something I never knew
lush and green , a strange appeal
I’ve never seen

like the boy in the square , who would stand and stare
something kept him there
he looked at you , where the turtles flew,
not at me, just you

something kept him there , something happened there
Roman love affair
and the light was grey , on this happy day
Roman Holiday
