Jacqueline lived down the street
and the boy next door thought she was pretty sweet.
But it never was and it never would be.
He would have liked to hold her hand.
Take her places without a plan.
But it never was and it never would be.
 
Coz he'd always doubt.
Yes he'd always doubt.
Yes he'd always doubt.
It could ever be.
 
She liked to watch from her window
as he took off his shirt and hit the pillow.
Oh how she wished, she wished it could be.
 
But she'd always doubt.
Yes she'd always doubt.
Yes she'd always doubt
it could ever be.
 
Then he moved away
and she moved on.
She didn't even try to make him stay.
Coz still they thought how could it ever be.

You say hello and I gently shiver.
You say hello and I gently quiver.
 
Oooo I guess I'm all alone now
Oooo I guess the dark blanket of evening song
will have to frighten me so.
 
You said time doesn't matter, I could wait forever.
But I'm standing here alone
just waiting for a word from you.
I'm not wasting another day.
 
You ripped my heart out
and tied it to a string.
It's been so long since
the day you told me
you want to hold me in your arms.
 
Oooo I guess I'm all alone now.
Oooo I guess the dark blanket of evening song
will have to frighten me so.
 
You said
time doesn't matter, I could wait forever.
But I'm standing here alone
just waiting for a word from you.
I'm not wasting another day.
 
Can you feel my heartache.
Can you feel my heartache.
Can you feel my heartache.
 
Evening Song.
Evening Song.
 
You said
time doesn't matter
I could wait forever.

Every little heart
deserves a little home
and every little spark
ignites when we're alone.
Because you have my love to hold.
 
Bo Bo Bo
 
Every little breathe
you breathe unto my neck
as we lay quietly
and I fall asleep.
 
You give me love
where love is due.
You give me love
where love is due.
You give me love
where love is due.
 
Bo Bo Bo
 
I've got nothing more than
this light to guide me to you.
And have you ever wondered
without me, what you would do.
Because I can't live forever.
But I till try for you.
 
You give me love
where love is due.
You give me love
where love is due.
You give me love
where love is due.
 
Bo Bo Bo
 
And there's no more searching
now I found you.
And there's no more searching now I found you.
 
You give me love
where love is due.
You give me love
where love is due.
 
You give me love
where love is due.

 Look at the stars in the sky

they are shining.

Look at the stars in the sky

they are dying.

I never know where I've come

or if I'm going.

I never know where I've come

or if I'm going home.

 

I need, I need more time.

I need more life.

I need more time.

Or I'll cry.

And I'll die.

 

Look at the stars in the sky.

Look at the stars in the sky.

And I don't know where I'm going

I don't know where I've been.

Don't know where I'm going

I don't know where I've been.

 

I need, I need more time.

I need more life.

I need more time.

Or I'll cry.

And I'll die.

 

I need you tonight.

Oh I need you tonight.

I need you tonight.

Oh I need you tonight babe.

I need you tonight

and I need you tonight babe.

 

Look at the stars.

 

It was a sunny day, think it was Sunday

I'd had a really shitty time in 'ol Paris.

Stepped off the plane, smelled fresh air

there was blue sky everywhere.

I arrive at Gothic Point

dropped all my bags & slowly looked around.

The walls were bright green

the spanish looked unclean

and there were five different times on the walls.

Those crazy Spaniards.

 

Hasta maná

See ya tomorra.

I'm in Barcelona with a whole bunch of people

I've never met before.

 

I met George this dreadlocked lunatic

he really knew how to dance the night away

he was all just skin and bones

covered it with baggy clothes

but he knew how to tickle my funny bones.

So did Tom, crazy curly haired boy.

He's at least 6 foot 3 and he's also kinda sweet

and he's not too afraid to sing for me.

 

Hasta maná

See ya tomorra.

I'm in Barcelona with a whole bunch of people

I've never met before.

 

Don't look back

forever moving on.

Don't look back

at least we'll have this song.

 

Hasta maná

See ya tomorra.

I'm in Barcelona with a whole bunch of people

I've never met before.

 

Hasta maná see you later

Hasta.

Oh I miss you.

 Calling out for an explanation

for the wheels they lost all motion.

It seems that we had a good thing going on.

But now our hearts have been torn.

 

I know we're not an easy act to follow.

I know I won't be seeing you tomorrow

but you used to be mine.

 

If you'd said that you had more time

then I'd have no more rhymes to sing.

If you'd said that you really made a change

then I'd turn my world around and rearrange.

 

I know we're not an easy act to follow.

I know I won't be seeing you tomorrow

but you used to be mine.

 

Dear Lord in heaven

please send him back to me.

I've got no more company.

I've never been so lonely.

 

I have tried so many nights

to love anyone but you.

But it seems this bleeding heart

is aching on and on.

 

I know we're not an easy act to follow.

I know I won't be seeing you tomorrow

I know we're not an easy act to follow

but you used to be mine.

 

You used to be mine.

 Crawling on the window pane

lifeless just sitting, waiting there

plotting, it doesn't move

and neither does he.

 

My darling spins the web of hurt

the web of pain and much deceit

he traps his pray, gains victory

the spider spins its web

and so does he.

 

Interwoven tiny strands

reflected colour from the sun.

It traps all those victims.

Innocent.

Beautiful, but dangerous.

 

It moves, it makes its web

to trap its prey.

Silent, it ignores my presence

focused, it just moves on

and so does he.

 

My darling spins the web of hurt

the web of pain and much deceit

he traps his pray, gains victory

the spider spins its web

and so does he.

 

Interwoven tiny strands

reflecting colour from the sun.

It traps all those victims.

Innocent.

Beautiful, but dangerous.

 

I don't know where to run.

 

The spider spins its web.

 

Silent the victim lies helpless on the floor.

A boundary has been created,

Lifeless the victim lies helpless.

He has won.

 All this optimism can sometimes drag me down.

I can't be on top of the world

twenty-four hours, seven days.

 

I need comforting

and a safe place to land.

I need comforting

and a safe place to land.

 

Don't get scared I won't stay for long

drag on your shoulders

and weigh everybody else down too

coz I know how they feel.

 

They need comforting

and a safe place to land.

They need comforting

and a safe place to land.

 

And though the lights are pretty

in the sky

and I could sit here wallowing in my

own self pity.

I'm just a visitor.

 

S'cuse me if I need a helping hand.

Give me five minutes and your ear.

Coz I need comforting

and a safe place to land.

I need comforting

and a safe place to land.

 

And though the lights are pretty

in the sky

and I could sit here wallowing in my

own self pity.

I'm just a visitor.
