Post song lyrics that are important to me

People I know, places I go,
make me feel tongue tied.
I can see how people look down,
they’re on the inside.

Here’s where the story ends.

People I see, weary of me, showing their good side,
and I can see how people look down.
I’m on the outside.

Here’s where the story ends,
Oh, here’s where the story ends.

It’s that little souvenir of a terrible year,
which makes my eyes feel sore.
And I never should of said,
the books that you read were all I loved you for.

It’s that little souvenir of a terrible year,
which makes me wonder why.
It’s the memorys of the shed,
that made me turn red.
Surprise, surprise, surprise.

Crazy I know, places I go,
make me feel so tired.
And I can see how people look down,
I’m on the outside.

Here’s where the story ends,
Oh, here’s where the story ends.

It’s that little souvenir of a terrible year,
which makes my eyes feel sore.
And who ever would of thought,
the books that you bought where all I loved you for?

And the devil never said, go down to the shed.
I know where I belong.
But the only thing I ever really wanted to say
was wrong, was wrong, was wrong.

It’s that little souvenir of a terrible year,
which makes me smile inside.
So I’ll cynically, cynically say
the world is that way.
surprise, surprise, surprise.

Oh, here’s where the story ends,
Ooh, here is where the story ends.

(Shake it up)

I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind all these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind all this music

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

And suppose I never ever met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you kiss me so sweet and so soft
Suppose I never ever saw you
Suppose we never ever called
Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall

All my friends say that of course its gonna get better
Gonna get better
Better better better better
Better better better

I never love nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting by heart truly
I got lost
In the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind
All this music
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

I hear in my mind all of these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind all of this music

Breaks my heart
Breaks my heart

“Photograph”

Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red
And what the hell is on Joey’s head

And this is where I grew up
I think the present owner fixed it up
I never knew we’d ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out

And this is where I went to school
Most of the time had better things to do
Criminal record says I broke in twice
I must have done it half a dozen times

I wonder if it’s too late
Should i go back and try to graduate
Life’s better now than it was back then
If I was them I wouldn’t let me in

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, god, I

Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.

Remember the old arcade
Blew every dollar that we ever made
The cops hated us hangin’ out
They say somebody went and burned it down

We used to listen to the radio
And sing along with every song we know
We said someday we’d find out how it feels
To sing to more than just the steering wheel

Kim’s the first girl I kissed
I was so nervous that I nearly missed
She’s had a couple of kids since then
I haven’t seen her since god knows when

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, god, I

Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.

I miss that town
I miss the faces
You can’t erase
You can’t replace it
I miss it now
I can’t believe it
So hard to stay
Too hard to leave it

If I could I relive those days
I know the one thing that would never change

Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It’s hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.

Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
Everytime I do it makes me…

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I’m not gonna move,
Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand,
Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am,
Some try to hand me money they don’t understand,
I’m not…broke I’m just a broken hearted man,
I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do,
How can I move on when I’m still in love with you…

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you’re missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you’ll come back here to the place that we’d meet,
And you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I’m not moving…
I’m not moving.

Policeman says son you can’t stay here,
I said there’s someone I’m waiting for if it’s a day, a month, a year,
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows,
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go.

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you’re missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you’ll come back here to the place that we’d meet,
And you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I’m not moving…
I’m not moving.
I’m not moving…
I’m not moving.

People talk about the guy
Who’s waiting on a girl…
There are no holes in his shoes
But a big hole in his world…

and maybe I’ll get famous as man who can’t be moved,
And maybe you won’t mean to but you’ll see me on the news,
And you’ll come running to the corner…
Cos you’ll know it’s just for you

I’m the man who can’t be moved
I’m the man who can’t be moved…

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you’re missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you’ll come back here to the place that we’d meet,
And you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I’m not moving…
I’m not moving.

I’m not moving…
I’m not moving.

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag not I’m not gonna move.

Here it is.

I know were just like old friends
We just cant pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We cant help but feel that something has been lost

But please you know youre just like me
Next time I promise well be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind

So far I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was…

Angel, you know its not the end
Well always be good friends
The letters have been sent on

So please, you always were so free
You’ll see, I promise we will be
Perfect
Perfect strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we meet

Perfect
You know this has to be
We always were so free
We promised that wed be
Perfect

So called Mr Rock And Roll
Is dancing on his own again
Talking on his phone again
To someone who tells him that his balance is low
He’s got no where to go
He’s on his own again

Rock chick of the century
Is acting like she used to be
Dancing like there’s no one there
Before she never seemed to care
Now she wouldn’t dare
It’s so rock and roll to be alone

And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say “I wish I was something more”
And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say ” I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before”

Mrs Black and White
She’s never seen a shade of grey
Always something on her mind
Every single day
But now she’s lost her way
And where does she go from here

Mr Multicultural
Sees all that one can see
He’s living proof of someone
Very different to me
But now he wants to be free
Free so he can see

And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say “I wish I was something more”
And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say “I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before”

He says “I wish I knew you, I wish I met you
When time was still on my side”
She’ll say ” I wish I knew you, I wish I loved you
Before I was his bride”

And so they must depart
Too many more are broken hearts
But I’ve seen that all before
In TV, books and film and more
And there’s a happy ending
Every single day

And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say “I wish I was something more”
And they’ll meet one day
Far away
And say “I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before”

I will not forget all the things, I haven’t said yet
And so I’ll wait
Like water thrown on water, its always hard to tell
Just where is ends
Getting ready to be strung, there is sweetness to
Every blow

Broken bridges, wish I could lie down
Freedom angels come and save me now
So I lost my fortune then found it in a glen
Trees and branches led me straight to him

Oh my love, freedom caused us shame
On the breeze, your words call again
Will we learn to wait until tomorrow
Not knowing where we’ll go

Broken bridges, selfish now it sounds
Thirsty whispers told me to find out
Well I tried to stay until the summer came
Winter madness running through my veins

Oh my love, freedom caused us shame
On the breeze you words call again
Will we learn to wait until tomorrow
Not knowing where we’ll go

You say
Words don’t mean a thing
You say
Words don’t mean a thing

_{This is it live. Do you recognise anyone in there, Julie ?}

Lost in cheap delirium
Searching the neon lights
I move carefully
Sink in the city aquarium
Sing in the key of night
As they’re watching me

Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
‘Cause lately I’ve been losing on my own

Wrapped in silent elegance
Beautifully broken down
As illusions burst
Too late to learn from experience
Too late to wonder how
To finish first

Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
‘Cause lately I’ve been losing on my own

Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
Won’t you take me home
Won’t you take me home
‘Cause lately I’ve been losing on my own
Won’t you take me home

I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from here to where you’d be
It’s only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I’d find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places

I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I’ve found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science

Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me

I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms

After I have travelled so far
We’d set the fire to the third bar
We’d share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can’t keep in

I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms

How would you feel if I was to kneel right down,
at your feet, right now?
Is the way it is gonna be from
now till to forever,
Let´s have less of getting clever with me

Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out?
Is it me?
There´s no doubt I can do what I wanna do from
now till forever,
Let´s have less of getting clever with me

You are wasting your time
and my time as well la la la living a lie,
I guess that time will tell.
You are making excuses
´bout the things you never done.
Walking in circles, blinded by the sun.
Blinded the sun.

Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out?
Is it me?
There´s no doubt I can do what I wanna do from
now till forever,
Let´s have less of getting clever with me

You are wasting your time
and my time as well la la la living a lie,
I guess that time will tell.
You are making excuses ´bout the things you never done.
You are walking in circles, blinded by the sun.
Blinded the sun.

I do not mean to sound unkind to you.
You just have to go & find
something else to do.
And don´t ask me what went wrong –
the list goes on and on and on and on.
the list goes on and on and on and on.
The list goes on and on.
