Roving Heart 04:17
Got a girl with a roving heart And when it roves it tears me apart Pulls me to pieces Cuts me in two Got me dancing on a string She plays the tune and she makes me sing To her song She rules OK The girl with a roving heart The girl with a roving heart She blows a kiss as she walks away Says she'll see me some other day And I'll be waiting For her to come home And when she's back I'll be her refrain Until she wants to rove again That's the way it goes And she goes The girl with the roving heart The girl with the roving heart I know you think that I deserve better Sometimes I think what you think is true She takes me on a ride and I let her A one way trip to nowhere That's where I'm going to She blows a kiss as she walks away Says she'll see me some other day And I'll be waiting For her to come home And when she's back I'll be her refrain Until she wants to rove again That's the way it goes And she goes The girl with roving heart The girl with the roving heart I know you think I deserve better... Got a girl with a roving heart ...

Wake up Get out of bed Sober up that boozy head You're not the only show in this town The spotlight's not just on you Or the things that you do You're not the only show in this town Yes, you can do amazing things Circumnavigate Saturn's rings Split an atom or maybe two Don't forget who shares the bed with you Who do you think you are? Some kind of megastar? You're not the only cheese on the plate You think you've won the race But you're not even third place Before you get on the podium Please wait Yes, you can perform amazing feats As the world it bends beneath your feet You'll change it all with your best laid plans Be careful of the power resting in your hands Yes, you can do amazing things Circumnavigate Saturn's rings Split an atom or maybe two Don't forget who shares the bed with you You think you've got it all Learn to walk before you fall You're not the only room with a view Are you sure you've won the day As you start to fade away Before you count those blessings Make sure they belong to Yes, you can perform amazing feats As the world it bends beneath your feet You'll change it all with your best laid plans Be careful of the power resting in your hands You’re not the only show in this town

My feet they ache from this uneven ground But the future's there and its waiting to be found When we reach the border We'll put our heads down My feet they'll rest from this uneven ground I know that paradise isn't there I'll settle for some safety and some care So we can sleep easier With gentler sounds My body shakes on this uneven ground Remember our dreams now baby Keep them alive now baby Hold them tight as you close your eyes The worst is over baby It's all in the past now baby When we wake we'll see a new sun rise When we left that bruised and battered town We were lost but we thought that we'd be found But we're not from here They say we don't belong We are not for this uneven ground They've tore down the shanty and we're gone Nothing left to do but keeping on We're someone else's problem We are nowhere bound My heart it breaks on this uneven ground If you did walk upon uneven ground And your feet were tied and your soul was wrapped and bound Would you keep moving? Would you sleep sound? Would your faith quake on uneven ground? Would your faith quake on uneven ground? Would your faith quake on uneven ground?

See my face 03:02
I was there in the early hours Your doubts I put in their place And though you know only real is real You heard my voice You felt my touch You saw my face All at mine in the back yard This growing matriarchy If I'd have know this years ago My troubles packed Would have washed out to sea “You’re a lucky boy” I sang to you Though you know that anyway The fire’s glow caresses you As I go on my way What's happened to this town I love? I don't recognise this place Couldn't find where I was born But heard your voice Felt your touch Saw your face “You’re a lucky boy” I sang to you Though you know that anyway The fire’s glow caresses you As I go on my way When you're staring up into the sky On some midnight star chase The city's glow may mask galaxies You'll hear my voice Feel my touch See my face Hear my voice Feel my touch See my face

Shake me Take me Wide awake me Find me a place to stay My compass don’t work It don’t find home Someone point the way Abide me Guide me Decide for me I cannot make that choice Too much on the menu To feed this bursting heart Someone be my voice And these times are strange How we can talk in a million ways But the line's engaged Or we could talk in a million ways A billion ideas A trillion opinions Every second of every hour of every day That’s why you can’t find your way Feel me Heal me Find the real me Somewhere deep inside Ain’t been seen In a pretty while Since I found that place to hide Make me Brake me Consolidate me Merge me in some big idea Shake my hand Let’s seal the deal Before we all disappear And these times are strange...
