A Lifetime Ago 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Funny how things seem like yesterday Memory as clear as glass Many many years have gone away How did we let them pass? We were city kids in London town Discovering our world Playing in the streets, running around In summer heat or winter cold Sometimes I think And wonder what you did With all that passing time Moving on We are all forever just Moving on We all have to grow Moving on Pictures in my mind of A lifetime ago You went your way and I went mine Our lives have never crossed Now and then I pour myself a glass of wine And ponder what we've lost Sometimes I think And wonder what you did With all that passing time Moving on We are all forever just Moving on We all have to grow Moving on Pictures in my mind of A lifetime ago Moving to the country Leave the city far behind Wanting to go back there But never find the time Days turn into months Months turn into years Change leaves us far behind Moving on We are all forever just Moving on We all have to grow Moving on Pictures in my mind of A lifetime ago

Dancing On An Island 03:15
lyrics
buy track
Her name was Jennifer She lived in Surburbia She liked to dance dance dance dance the night away She had a friend called Angela Who drove a red Ford Anglia She liked to drive drive drive drive around all day They found an old hotel With a bohemian clientele Hidden on an island in the Thames They went there every week To listen to some R&B And dance dance dance dance until the break of day She met a guy called Tone Who looked liked Brian Jones He liked to play play play play guitar all day He gave her dope to smoke And told her lots of jokes They fell in love, love, love and loved their lives away Now many years have passed She still smokes Tony's grass They made their home on that island in the Thames And every now and then Angela will still pop in And then they talk, talk talk talk about the good old days Dance dance dancing on an island Dance dance dancing on an island Dance dance dancing their lives away

Birdsong 03:09
lyrics
buy track
I heard the birds sing today I stopped to listen to their song The cars had all gone away The birds were back where they belong Clean air blew in my face Like it's never done before Is this what they took away? What did we sacrifice it for Today we hear the birdsong See birds up in the sky Will the new way carry on? Or will the birdsong die? Underneath the city bridges The river's clean again Fish come back in abundence Swimming 'til they reach their end Today we hear the birdsong See birds up in the sky Will the new way carry on? Or will the birdsong die?

Talk About You 02:27
lyrics
buy track
I want the world to know you say you missed me Because it's true I talk about you I'm telling everybody that you kissed me It's what I do I talk about you Day or night You are my light Talk about you Maybe I could keep it to myself now The whole day through I talk about you Although I've tried to stop I know that somehow I'll start anew And talk about you Day or night You are my light Talk about you You make me feel like shouting from a hill top I'll enjoy the view When I talk about you I've tried so many times but I just can't stop While the sky is blue I'll talk about you Day or night You are my light Day or night You are my light Talk about you

Lands End 02:36
lyrics
buy track
We looked out to the sea On the craggy, rocky cliffs Dreamt of places far away And thought about what if I know you've got your life And I've got mine And I don't want to offend So let's meet up, for the old times at Lands End Are your memories still there? Do you think about those days Are there things you'd like to share? Since we went our separate ways Perhaps you'll think it through I'd just like to See you one more time again So let's meet up, for the old times at Lands End I remember the golden sun Glistening in the waves How we talked about our future And where we'd spend our days Before the summer's done And the winter comes I'll ask you as a friend Let's meet up, for the old times at Lands End If I don't hear from you That's fine and understood And I hope that what you do All turns out for the good I know you've got your life And I've got mine And I don't want to offend But let's meet up, for the old times at Lands End

Looking For A Clue 03:08
lyrics
buy track
I can hear the distant cry Seeping through the cold stone What does it all signify Has the cover been blown? So I opened up the door To find what this all means Wanting something to explore I came across the Queen I asked for her wisdom Had she some I could take She obviously had none Everything was just fake The bishops in their churches Don't believe what they preach The students and researchers Won't believe what they'll teach What's true is never clear There's nothing out on view But the answers are all here If you're looking for a clue The civilised among us Pretend its natural law But for those who are curious They wonder who it's for What's true is never clear There's nothing out on view But the answers are all here If you're looking for a clue It all seemed too fantastic I soon forgot my fear Why be enthusiastic When the end days are near? On the sea ships are sailing A never ending cruise While the world's slowly failing Some are looking for a clue

The View From My Window 03:19
lyrics
buy track
Neon lights Glowing in the night Taxi cabs Yellow signs so bright Sad old man Carrying his bags Tired young Mum Pushing baby's pram These are the pictures In my living gallery The view from my window The view from my window Passengers Waiting for a bus Businessmen Always in a rush These are the pictures In my living gallery The view from my window The view from my window The world played out in front of me I sat and watched it everyday The view from my window The view from my window

Down To The Top 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Another week for a pittance of pay Work yourself through another day Feel the heat of the sun and the burning glow Look out on the streets below So many things you'd rather do Happy just to fake it through In the past you lived with all your doubt You'll never forget what that's about You want to ride in a big black car And feel just like you're a movie star Spend cash like your being blackmailed Trying to keep yourself out of jail Who'd would want to end up ordinary? Lonely lost and solitary Do something big put yourself on the map Keep pulling that string 'till you feel it snap You've gotta go down You've gotta go down To get to the top Work out get in peak condition Keep one eye on the competition Dog eat dog if you want to acquire All the trappings you desire You're now the face in the city's night The rising star always shines bright You made your play now you get the reward So much more that you can now afford You've gotta go down You've gotta go down To get to the top You've done pretty well for a back steet kid How many others've done what you did? You got enemies now who'd love to attack You need to pay some muscle to watch your back High five keep yourself alive Stump up the cash for another dive Build an empire watch it expand Things working out just as you planned You've gotta go down You've gotta go down To get to the top

Streets Are Burning 03:11
lyrics
buy track
Now the streets are burning Now the tide is turning Listen, listen to the voices This is revolution Natural solution What were the choices? Chorus Yeah, yeah etc They didn't see the dangers Didn't want the changes Go away, go away and hide They give the policeman power And stay in ivory towers So they paid the price Chorus Yeah, yeah etc Now the streets are burning Now the tide is turning

Isis 03:40
lyrics
buy track
Underneath the high and dreamy spires In the learned college halls They dream of boating on the river And upcoming summer balls As the sun beats down onto the City's greens Cricket bats are edging fours Town and gown and all that's inbetween Aware of all that's gone before Isis Flowing so free Flowing into History Dark blue jerseys pulling strokes in time Orders barking from the end Others laze around in hired punts Pairs of lovers and their friends Isis Flowing so free Flowing into History How many today Who play and float about Will in the years to come Be the loudest ones to shout? And as the sun sets on another day The dinner tables are all set Isis carries on along her way Her waters never will forget Isis Flowing so free Flowing into History

We Could Go Dancing 02:59
lyrics
buy track
We could go dancing Just like we used to Go dancing in the open air I'd hold you tight The whole night through In our world we could be anywhere You'd rest your head On my shoulder We'd let the music take us far away And when the night turns Just that bit colder We'd be warmer than a summer day We could go dancing, dancing, dancing Go dancing in the open air We'd sit one out And watch the dancers Move themselves across the floor And when the time Came for the the last one I'd hold you tighter than I'd done before We could go dancing, dancing, dancing Go dancing in the open air Years have passed Our younger days Are far away behind us now Why did we stop Our dancing ways? I guess life came along somehow We could go dancing Just like we used to Go dancing in the open air I'd hold you tight The whole night through In our world we could be anywhere We could go dancing, dancing, dancing Go dancing in the open air

Winter Well 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Now the days are getting short And the nights are drawing in And the gifts are being bought As the Christmas shop begins When the fireworks fly high And the bonfires start to glow And you watch the burning guy Like they did so long ago When the homeless in their shelters Find some festive peace And the doctors and the nurses All stay within our reach When the cloudy skies turn white And the snow begins to fall And the never ending night Makes our large world very small Winter well Winter well Till the springtime comes again Winter well Winter well Stay warm and winter well When the frost lays on the ground And the earth is hardening up And you feel like hunkering down With a warming winter cup As the old year fades away And the new one comes along Many quietly sit and pray And remember those who've gone Winter well Winter well Till the springtime comes again Winter well Winter well Stay warm and winter well As the migrant birds take flight Heading for the warmer climes And the candles are alight Keep them burning all the time As the children with their sleighs Slide down hills of ice And the cold and crispy days Are a frozen paradise Winter well Winter well Till the springtime comes again Winter well Winter well Stay warm and winter well
