RADIO

& I want you
& I want you to want me too
& I won't go
& I won't leave until you know
that your picture sits there haunting me all night
but its alright
allright

'cause when I lay me down to sleep
my mind is like a radio
your picture comes and goes
& in the meanwhile…

if I could say
if I could wait until the sun
had crossed your face
to say we never have to run
cause your picture sits there smiling through the light
& its alright
allright

'cause when I lay me down to sleep
my mind is like a radio
your picture comes and goes
& in the meanwhile
everytime I try to sleep
my mind is just a radio
your station comes & goes
in the meanwhile

& I feel tired
but I'm still here and alive
& will try
to find us ways to survive
cause I picture you in my arms through the night
& were alright
allright

cause when I lay me down to sleep
my mind is like a radio
your picture comes and goes
& in the meanwhile
everytime I try to sleep
my mind is just a radio
your station comes & goes
in the meanwhile

WE'RE ALRIGHT

Two lovers went out walking
Into the moonless night
They wandered through the firmament
To hold each other tight
And though they saw the end was near
They never felt so right
And we’re alright

Two lovers round the circle
Against the rolling sea
They cannot break the motion
Or they will wake the dream
And though they saw the end was near
They couldn't leave that night
And we’re alright

If we had all the chances
The chances lovers hold
We'd fill our hearts with promises
Like mansions filled with gold
And when I look into your eyes
Against the dying light
I'm alright
You're alright
We’re alright

Two lovers went out walking...

RESCUE ME

Oh, won’t you rescue me
Oh, won’t you rescue me
I want you to
Hold me tight
Treat me right
Tell me what I’m doing wrong

Well I got lost on the way
When I was practically here
I lived on three cigarettes
And a perpetual fear
And a terrible dream
Where you whisper to me so sincere
Almost too clear

So won’t you rescue me
Oh, won’t you rescue me
I want you to
Hold me tight
Treat me right
Tell me what I’m doing wrong

Well there’s a vacancy sign
On your pillow tonight
If you could see my way
You’d probably turn out the light
And that terrible dream
Where you whisper to me so sincere
Almost too clear

Who put out the lights
I’m losing contact
You walk away
And you know that I can’t let go
No I can’t let go…

So won’t you rescue me
Oh, won’t you rescue me
I want you to
Hold me tight
Treat me right
Tell me what I’m doing wrong

WANDERING AROUND

Up all night close to the brink
Closing my eyes and trying to think
Reaching to you I almost touch down
The moon won't stop wandering around

You look good asleep in that chair
Faint expectations rise in the air
When you awake I won't be found
The moon won't stop wandering around

Wandering around, wandering around
All through the evening and never a sound
Come here my child and lay your head down
We'll stop this wandering around

You were right/I can't be read
Close that book that rests by your head
You were the story/In you I was bound
The moon won't stop wandering around

Oh my friend your time has been true
Everything right goes straight back to you
Maybe in dreams we'll cover that ground
The moon won't stop wandering around

Wandering around, wandering around
All through the evening and never a sound
Come hungry child and lay your head down
We'll stop this wandering around

If I pray and when I die
You can have all these tears that I cry
A heart that was lost, one will be found
So much for wandering around

Wandering around, wandering around
All through the evening and never a sound
Come hungry child your head to the ground
I 'll stop your wandering around
