Wooden Boat. . A little boy me went fishing in a wooden boat. Sitting there for hours in the cold. Patience is a virtue til we die. Then a ripple in the water caught my eye.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo.... . What am I to you and what are you to me?. Are we getting better or did we used to be?. What of the songs we used to sing?.
Is it a truth?. Or is it a fear?. Is it a rose to for my valentine?. What is love?. . Is it only words?. I'm trying to find?. Or is it the way, that we're feeling now?.
My greatest fear is we're just wasting tears. Wasting several years, still being round here. My greatest fear is maybe you will notice. I'm not what you wanted after all these years.
I, I'm just a piece of your pie chart. You're in a room with a rock star. Only I play the good parts of a kind heart. . The sky's too low. And the room's too dark.
And the fishermen came back across the water. And the people started running in the park. And the city stopped as I held you in my arms. . We could hear the sounds of sirens all around us.
Today this could be, the greatest day of our lives. Before it all ends, before we run out of time. Stay close to me,. Stay close to me. Watch the world come alive tonight.
Save our souls we're splitting atoms. Go tell Eve and go tell Adam. Liberate your sons and daughters. Some are gods and some are monsters. We'll get a five minute warning for divine intervention.
If our arms were reaching out. If our words could only bridge the doubt. Will we lose this chance again?. Strange roads with different signs. Don't even know where we divide.
Down, down, let your crazy out. Boys go crazy over you. Grip like a New York window cleaner. Just staring at you. . Youth don't leave me, hair stay on me.
We used to walk Mancunian Way. We used to swagger we used to sway. Up until the lights took us away. Do you know what you meant to me?. We used to think we were the bomb.
Where, where are the stars?. The ones that we used to call ours. Can't imagine it now. We used to laugh till we fell down.. . The secrets we had, are now in the past.
Kings and Queens and Presidents. Ministers of Governments. Welcome to the future of your world. . Through talking heads that took liberties. The monkeys learnt to build machines.
Julie, what's your problem?. Won't you tell me what's going on?. 'Cause there's a dark cloud hanging over you. You've been down, down, down for too long.
You can dance if you like. You can sing every line of every song. No, you don't have to steal the show. It was your show all along. . As the orchestra plays the people take the seats.
I'd watch the world go by in the morning. Lose myself in the the news. Looks like the cost of houses are falling but I don't notice. . I'd write a long love song with no meaning.
We became the parade on the streets that we once cleaned. Expendable soldiers smiling at anything. Raised on a feeling our lives would have meaning eventually.
Here standing in the rain. The sun has gone again and nothing's gonna change. Time, I need a little time as you slip out of sight. And nothing heals the pain..
It's just a fraction of time. Until we move in reverse. Can feel the pressure in all our minds. And the whole Universe. . Is it a question of force?. A metaphysical law.
I won't hurt you. I'll protect you. I won't let the rain fall down. I'll always be around. . and baby I will understand if sometimes. you just want to spread your wings and fly.
