Unreleased Songs

Roots of Love
If the silence doesn't kill you
then the moonlight will
you're starin' at the sky
but the moon isn't gonna pay our bills
and we're laughin' 'bout it loud
but oh you know it ain't no joke
see them cake the roads with glitter
trade your dreams for smoke

There's teardrops in the treetops
the wind is whistling through the mountain's teeth
a song for every wounded dove
and we're out further than the razor's edge
going down down to the roots of love

And its rainin' in my kitchen
a storm in my front room
the instructions don't say nothing
just desire consume
and the stars are falling right into my eye
might be built out of stand but maybe baby it's paradise

There's teardrops in the treetops
the wind is whistling through the mountain's teeth
a song for every wounded dove
and we're out further than the razor's edge
going down down to the roots
goind down down to the roots
goind down down to the roots
of love

na na na na...

Lovers
We are lovers girl
me and you
small faced lovers girl oh
you know its true

Get through the winter time
and the spring sun starts to grow
I'm your white faced lover girl
oh don't you know

You're so warm with me
i never feel the cold
what have you done with me i've never felt this old

come through the orange summer
and stand and watch the red leaves fall
maybe by next summertime
we'll have forgotten it all

ah
we are lovers girl
me and you
small faced girl
you know it's true

come through the orange summer
and stand and watch the red leaves fall
maybe by next summertime
we'll have forgotten it all

Mighty Wrong Time
Losing my sense of direction
losing my nerve
losing my faith in change, in the god that i serve
just a regular regular person with regular dreams
sparks in the forehead now and feeling my blood scream

in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time

fill a room full of starving children
luminous hope
beaming live via satellite to a million homes
what to do with this sense of proportion
to do with my eyes
eyes and my forehead now feeling the blue skies

in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time

sucking sucking on sympathy cigarettes
feeding my face
turning my back each day on anything I can't face
what to do with these streets where i'm walking
wrong in my soul
fire burning everywhere, spinning out of control

mighty wrong time images pouring
voices unclear
misty morning, there you go darling
blood of ?
music pumping, crowd all around me
grinning from ear to ear
invisible tears
why

in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time

Aluminium feminine compact fits in my head
give me confidence softness lets me feel what i really am
staring up at these women all shining twenty feet tall
understand they're not on earth but wanting it all

in a mighty wrong time
you better believe it
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
na na na
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
in a mighty wrong time
na na na na na
mighty wrong time
mighty wrong

Monday Morning
No, can't make it on my own, in this life
I try to hold it but it's gone, too fast
this life, I put my hand upon my heart
well I don't know where to start wasting all my time
(my time)

Lipstick mark or nicotine
all the things that might have been
Monday morning falling down
on this life

Blind, so stupid didn't see with my eyes
this love so bright and full of me
your face
your face, i put my hand upon my heart
girl i don't know where to start, missing all my friends
(my friends)

a hundred miles from anywhere
sadness creeping in my hair

Monday morning falling down
na na na na na
oh yeah
oh yeah

I put my hand upon my head
what's to say it's all been said
nothing in my mind
(my mind)

twenty pound and fifteen pence
down in the park the ambulance
Monday morning falling down
on this life
on this life
on this life

on this life
can't make it on my own
in this life
can't make it on my own
in this life
can't make it on my own
in this life

na na na na na
oh yeah
na na na na na
oh yeah
oh yeah
na na na na na

What Should it Matter
What should it matter if the sun don't rise
It's midnight forever in my Janie's eyes
And what should it matter if the curves don't spring
when I'm finding winter in everything

I live in this cold wind city
all my life
walking around still looks the same
same people coming and going, doesn't feel right
see it all now
so far away

What should it matter if the earth may slide
sky break in pieces and stars collide
the littlest sense left in this world of ours
my Janie took with her in the wee small hours

I live in this cold wind city
all my life
walking around still looks the same
same people coming and going, doesn't feel right
watch it all now
so far away

I live in this cold wind city
all my life
walking around still looks the same
still looks the same
same people coming and going, doesn't feel right
see it all now
so far away
so far

And all of the wisdom I held so high
shining and useless as this April sky
the littlest sense left in this world of ours
my Janie took with her in the wee small hours
my Janie took with her in the wee small hours

now i'm finding winter in everything
