Your knives are sharp
When you put them in my heart
Though the truth, you'd say,
Is I like them there that way
From this hoodlum skin
I can always run to him
Undeserved, capsized
In the gutters of his eyes
Darling I need you far more than I say
None of my fears are as dear to me
And a great light dims
Every day I'm torn from him
And our stars align
In Elysian Fields at night
And the wheels, they turn
And the fallen heather burns
At a loss and scared
In exile and unprepared
Darling I need you far more than I say
None of my fears are as dear to me
Darling I need you far more than I say
None of my fears are as dear to me
Blessed's the night
Blessed's the night
Blesses's the night
When none of my fears are as dear to me
Blessed's the night
Blessed's the night
Blesses's the night
When none of my fears are as dear to me
None of my fears are as dear to me
None of my fears are as dear to me |

I'm fine from within
Just better without
This noose around my neck
Is counting me out
Whenever I run
My beautiful sin
Is calling outside
And it's that that reminds me of you
Now our every last effort tried
So far has been denied
It's easy to cry for love
Far harder to try
There goes my guiding light
Farewell my guiding light
There goes my guiding light
I fought my way in
But I can't find a way out
Of this weightless regret
Surrounding me now
And whenever I run
Some beautiful sin
Is calling outside
And it's that that reminds me of you
Now our every last effort tried
So far has been denied
It's easy to cry for love
Far harder to try
There goes my guiding light
Farewell my guiding light
There goes my guiding light
Farewell my guiding light
There goes my guiding light
There goes my guiding light
There goes my guiding light |

See my love is asleep on the floor
In a pose that's familiar
See my sun will send you to war
If the battles won't kill you
Now I've a change in mind
Just calling all the time
That I don't want to live in your side
Though the rose is vermillion
And I find it so hard to survive
Without when within you
My sweet Lavinia
My sweet Lavinia
All the years buried under the floors
And the wounds in the parlour
Would have come up to greet us before
If it weren't for my heart 'cause
I've her name in mine
And it's calling all the time
For my sweet Lavinia |

The imperial disaster's in a furious decline
they've been burning down the ghettos burning down the ghettos
crossing all
of the lines
And everyone gets so excited as it all start to rise
all the time all the time radiating
more heat than light
more it than light
they 've been spitting on the mirage in the back of the van
if he can do it if he can do it if he can do it
i think anybody can
they 've been polishing the dolphin you've never seen a beast so bright
all the time all the time radiating
more heat than light
more heat than light
all you funny little men
with that fever in your eyes
you say put them with the others-
you should never analyse
he fucked the watermelon women like a thief in the night
all the time all the time radiating
more heat than light
more heat than light |

Seven moons for seven seas
won't let them get the better of me
they'll pass me by
don't pass me by
my seven fears all fear of me
they'll take their leave eventually
well they can try
they can try
my love was strong
for now it's gone
eleven stories up
from the second floor
a love not warm
is a love not done
darling you let me know
talk down the girl
talk down the girl
so little knowledge known to me
so little colour left to see
but black and white
black and white
a silhouette at seventeen
if they can find what's left of me
for the fire
burn in the fire
my love was strong
for now it's gone
eleven stories up
from the second floor
a love not warm
is a love not done
talk down the girl
talk down the girl
there's little more for us to say
you've made your mind up anyway
another world
another world
i hate to leave you here this way
but i can't think where you should stay
i miss my girl
i miss my girl
my love was strong
for now it's gone
eleven stories on
from the second floor
a love not warm
is a love not done
darling you let me know
talk down the girl
talk down the girl |

I wonder where the junkies go to die
Are you a friend or just some passer by
Cos lately it feels like I might need some time
If you want me
Then you've found me
With time out of mind
Lately I've wondered how many I's there are in mine
If this ain't real then what's the point in trying
Lately it feels like I might need some time
If you want me
Then you've found me
With time out of mind
And darling I wonder how many signs you'll find tonight
We all know it's the longest ties that bind
Still lately it feels like I'm on my knees each time
If you want me
Then you've found me
With time out of mind
Yeah I'm the nowhere man
And I know I know where I stand
If you want me
Then you've found me
With time out of mind |
