I'm ready
Ready for the laughing gas
I'm ready
Ready for what's next
Ready to duck
Ready to dive
Ready to say
I'm glad to be alive
I'm ready
Ready for the push
In the cool of the night
In the warmth of the breeze
I'll be crawling around
On my hands and knees
She's just down the line
... Zoo Station
Got to make it on time ...
Zoo Station
I'm ready
Ready for the gridlock
I'm ready
To take it to the street
Ready for the shuffle
Ready for the deal
Ready to let go
Of the steering wheel
I'm ready
Ready for the crush
Alright, alright, alright,
alright, alright
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright ... it's alright
Hey baby ... hey baby ...
hey baby ... hey baby ...
it's alright
It's alright
Time is a train
Makes the future the past
Leaves you standing in the
station
Your face pressed up against
the glass
I'm just down the line from
your love ... Zoo Station
Under the sign of your love
... Zoo Station
I'm gonna be there ... Zoo
Station
Tracing the line ... Zoo
Station
I'm gonna make it on time
... make it on time ...Zoo Station
Just two stops down the
line ... Zoo Station
Give me on more chance
And you'll be satisfied
Give me two more chances
You won't be denied
Well my heart is where it's
always been
My head is somewhere in
between
Give me one more chance
Let me be your lover tonight
(Check it out)
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real
thing
Give me one last chance
And I'm gonna make you sing
Give me half a chance
To ride on the waves that
you bring
You're honey child to a swarm
of bees
Gonna blow right through
you like a breeze
Give me one last chance
We'll slide down the surface
of things
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real
thing
We're free to fly the crimson
sky
The sun won't melt our wings
tonight
Oh now
Here she comes
Take me higher
Take me higher
Can you take me higher?
Will you take me higher?
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real
thing
Even better than the real
thing
Even better then the real
thing
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on
you
Now that you've got someone
to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
It's one love
We get to share it
It leaves you baby
If you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in
your mouth?
You act like you never had
love
And you want me to go without
Well it's too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We're one
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the
dead
Have you come here to play
Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
We hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
One
Haven't seen you in quite
awhile
I was down the hold, just
passing time
Last time we met it was
a low-lit room
We were as close together
as bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank
the wine
Everybody having a good
time
Except you
You were talking about the
end of the world
I took the money, I spiked
your drink
You miss too much these
days if you stop to think
You led me on with those
innocent eyes
And you know I love the
element of surprise
In the garden I was playing
the tart
I kissed your lips and broke
your heart
You, you were acting like
it was the end of the world
In my dream I was drowning
my sorrows
But my sorrows they learned
to swim
Surrounding me, going down
on me
Spilling over the brim
In waves of regret, waves
of joy
I reached out for the one
I tried to destroy
You, you said you'd wait
until the end of the world
You're dangerous 'cos you're
honest
You're dangerous 'cos you
don't know what you want
Well you left my heart
Empty as a vacant lot
For any spirit to haunt
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey
You're an accident
Waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass
Left there on the beach
Well you tell me things
I know you're not supposed
to
Then you leave me
Just out of reach
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey sha la la la
Who's gonna ride your wild
horses?
Who's gonna drown in your
blue sea?
Who's gonna ride you wild
horses?
Who's gonna fall at the
foot of thee?
Well you stole it
'Cos I needed the cash
And you killed it
'Cos I wanted revenge
Well you lied to me
'Cos I asked you to
Baby ... can we still be
friends?
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey sha la la la
Who's gonna ride your wild
horses?
Who's gonna drown in your
blue sea?
Who's gonna ride you wild
horses?
Who's gonna fall at the
foot of thee?
The deeper I spin
The hunter will sin ...
for your ivory skin ...
Took a drive in the dirty
rain
To a place where the wind
calls your name
Under the trees the river
laughing
At you and me ...
Halluljah, heavens white
rose
The doors you open
I just can't close
Don't turn around
Don't turn around again
Don't turn around
You gypsy heart
Don't turn around
Don't turn around again
Don't trun around
And don't you look back
Come on now love
Don't you look back
Who's gonna ride your wild
horses?
Who's gonna drown in your
blue sea?
Who's gonna taste your saltwater
kisses?
Who's gonna take the place
of me?
Who's gonna ride your wild
horses?
Who could tame the heart
of thee?
We crossed the line
Who pushed you over?
It doesn't matter to you
It matters to me
We're cut adrift
But still floating
I'm only hanging on
To watch you go down ...
my love
I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me
I gave you everything you
ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted
The men who love you, you
hate the most
They pass through you like
a ghost
They look for you but your
spirit is in the air
Baby .. you're nowhere
You say in love there are
no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
Desperation is a tender trap
It gets you every time
You put your lips to her
lips
To stop the lie
Her skin is pale like God's
only dove
Screams like an angel for
your love
Then she makes you watch
her from above
And you need her like a
drug
You say in love there are
no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
She wears my love
Like a see-through dress
Her lips say one thing
Her movements something
else
Oh love
Like a screaming flower
Love
Dying every hour
And you don't know if it's
fear or desire
Danger the drug that takes
you higher?
Head of heaven
Fingers in the mire
Her heart is racing ... you
can't keep up
The night is bleeding like
a cut
Between the horses of love
and lust
We are trampled underfoot
You say in love there are
no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
To stay with you I'd be a
fool
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
It's no secret that the stars
are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our
world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes
eclipsed by a moon
Y'know I don't see you when
she walks in the room
It's no secret that a friend
is someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar
won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something
you tell another person
So I'm telling you... child
A man will beg
A man will crawl On the sheer face of love Like a fly on a wall It's no secret at all |
Love, we shine
like a
Burning star We're fallin' from The sky... tonight |
It's no secret that a conscience
can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition
bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal,
every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration
and sing about the grief
.
A man will rise
A man will fall From the sheer face of love Like a fly from a wall It's no secret at all |
Love, we shine
like a
Burning star We're fallin' from The sky... tonight |
Oh yeah
It's no secret that the
stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cosa
one man's lie
Look I gotta go
Yeah I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things
If I could I'd rearrange
Johnny take a walk
With your sister the moon
Let her pale light in
To fill up your room
You've been living underground
Eating from a can
You've been running away
From what you don't understand
She's slippy
You're sliding down
She'll be there
When you hit the ground
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
Johnny take a dive
With your sister in the
rain
Let her talk about the things
You can't explain
To touch is to heal
To hurt is to steal
If you want to kiss the
sky
Better learn how to kneel
... (on you knees boy!)
She's the wave
She turns the tide
She sees the man inside
the child
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
Lift my days ... light up
my nights
One day you'll look back
And you'll see
Where
You were held how
By this love
While
You could stand
There
And not move on this moment
Follow this feeling
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
She moves in mysterious
ways
It's alright ... it's alright
... it's alright
We move through miracle
days
Spirit moves in mysterious
ways
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days and light up
my nights
6:00 in the morning
You're the last to hear
the warning
You've been tryin' to throw
your arms around the world
You've been falling off
the sidewalk
Your lips move but you can't
talk
Tryin' to throw your arms
around the world
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... be still
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... woman I will
Sunrise like a nosebleed
Your head hurts and you
can't breathe
You been tryin' to throw
your arms around the world
How far are you gonna go
Before you loose your way
back home?
You've been tryin' to throw
your arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... woman be still
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... woman I will
I dreamed that I saw Dali
With a supermarket trolley
He was tryin' to throw his
arms around a girl
He took an open-top beetle
Through the eye of a needle
He was tryin' to throw his
arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... woman be still
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you ... woman I will
Nothin' much to say I guess
Just the same as all the
rest
Been tryin' to throw my
arms around the world
A woman needs a man
Like a fish needs a bicycle
When you're tryin' to throw
your arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you
I'm gonna run to you ...
run to you
Woman be still ... woman
be still
Be still ... woman be still
Woman I will
Sometimes I feel like I don't
know
Sometimes I feel like checking
out
I wanna get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love it won't be long
...
Oh sugar
Don't you cry
Oh child
Wipe the tears from your
eyes
You know I need you to be
strong
And the day is as dark as
the night is long
Feel like trash
You make me feel clean
I'm in the black
Can't see or be seen
Baby Baby Baby light my way
You bury your treasure
Where it can't be found
But your love is like a
secret
That's been passed around
There is a silence that
comes to a house
Where no one can sleep
I guess it's the price of
love
I know it's not cheap
Baby Baby Baby light my way
I remember
When we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together
In whispers and moans
When I was all messed up
And I heard opera in my
head
Your love was a light bulb
Hanging over my bed
Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby light my
way,
Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby light my
way
Don't believe what you hear
Don't believe what you see
If you just close your eyes
You can feel the enemy
When I first met you girl
You had fire in your soul
What happened to you face
Of melting snow?
Now it looks like this!
And you can swallow
Or you can spit
You can throw it up
Or choke on it
And you can dream
So dream out loud
You know that your time
is coming 'round
... don't let the bastards
grind you down
No nothing makes sense
Nothing seems to fit
I know you'd hit out
If you only knew who to
hit
And I'd join the movement
If there was one I could
believe in
Yeah I'd break bread and
wine
If there was a church I
could receive in
'Cos I need it now
To take the cup
To fill it up
To drink it slow
I can't let you go
And I must be
An acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
... don't let the bastards
grind you down
What are we going to do now
it's all been said?
No new ideas in the house,
and every book has been read
And I must be
An acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
And you can find
Your own way out
You can build
And I can will
And you can call
I can't wait until
You can stash
And you can seize
In dreams begin
Responsibilities
And I can love
And I can love
I know that the tide is
turning 'round
... don't let the bastards
grind you down
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Take my heart
Love is blindness
In a parked car
In a crowded street
You see your love
Made complete
Thread is ripping
The knot is slipping
Love is blindness
Love is clockworks
And cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Love is blindness
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness
A little death
Without mourning
No call
And no warning
Baby... a dangerous idea
That almost makes sense
Love is drowning
In a deep well
All the secrets
And no one to tell
Take the money
Honey
Blindness
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness
