The Circle Lyrics

Saturday Afternoon
The sunshine pours like wine
Through your window

But I know golden June
Can turn an empty grey
Against your window

And I feel like I’m on the outside
Of a circle

If I walk by the trees
I’ll catch the falling leaves
If the wind blows

But I know all this means is
Whiling on the hours
Watching sideshows

And I feel like I’m on the outside
Of a circle

Will I turn my coat to the rain
I don’t know
But I’m going somewhere I can warm my bones

Fare you well I’ll carry me away
And sing to those I know
Upon their birthdays

And I won’t feel like I’m on the outside
Of a circle

The Clock Struck 15 Hours Ago Lyrics

And the clock struck fifteen hours ago; it is shining
And the man who is wasting on the wall
Looks a lot like Jesus
And a little bit resembling
the man in the mirror in the hall

And I rose-trayed sailors
And you still shining
And I'm till waiting to got
And I lied for sailors
And I lied for certain
And I lied to everyone I know

Oh I'd believe in God and I'd believe in loving
but I don't speak to anyone who knows
And I need four 50's and three yellow lemons
And someone to take me home

And I'd forgotten the one who was sailing
on the water down beside where you don't go
And it's strange to tell
that the one who is shining
is someone I forgot I used to know

And the clock struck fifteen hours ago

The Day We Caught The Train Lyrics

I never saw it as the start its more a change of heart
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot I laid my plans in solid rock

Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away,
looking at the trees on the roadside feeling its a holiday.
You and I should ride the coast and wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.

Roll a number write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.
He sipped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again.
Stepping through the door with the night in store whiling just an hour away,
step into the sky in the starbright feeling its a brighter day.

You and I should ride the tracks and find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
and you and I when we're coming down we're only getting back
and you know I feel no sorrow.
When you find that things are getting wild don't you need days like these

The Downstream Lyrics

Lay down your head & look to your window
Where do you go when its not where you're going
And how do you see when the light isn't shining
Where you could be if you worked out the timing
And how does it feel when the world comes on so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you

If I were a king & you were a lady
What would I sing to say what I'm saying
And would you believe the verses left open
My heart on my sleeve the rhyming all broken
And how does it feel when the world comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you

Sell me a river and I'll skate away
to the downstream where I did play
So easy minded like a hill on the skyline
tripped up and blinded getting lost on the sidelines
And how does it feel when each word comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you

The Face Smiles Back Easily-Hundred Mile High City b-side Lyrics

It's not the way that you look

Or the way that you comb your hair

I know we'll always be there

By the look, by the book

And your troops and your devil may care

I know we'll always be there

I know we'll always be there



And by the way your eyes are shining through

There's nothing to do but wake up in light

And like the way your eyes they shine with the sun

And lighten everyone who wakes up in time to see

The face smiled back easily



I know we'll always be there

By the look, by the book

And your troops as your devil may care

I know we'll always be there

I know we'll always be there



It's not the way that you look

Or the way that you comb your hair

I know we'll always be there (x3)

The Inheritors-So Low B-Side Lyrics

Brother dont lose that fire-stick no way

The night is coming thin

Might tire to light that stick

Brother dont lose that stick no way



Dont lose that heating fork no way

Dark (? ? ? )s coming down

Need someone to eat off the ground

Need something to eat (? ? ? ) today



Brother dont lose your bares no way

Dont know which side were on

Blue then its green then its brown

Mines hard and its red and its coming my way



We all be together

And we all turn the same land

And if the man cant be the child

Then the devil will take the man



Get you behind me quick

Hey brother dont lose that stick

Need something to light my way today



Brother dont start no slowing down today

Come here with your big ideas

Shooting inbetween your ears

Come here with your big ideas today

The North Atlantic Drift Lyrics

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns



Its a cultural shift its the North Atlantic Drift

Americana and a rule Britannia

And the moon yes we own that to

And where the Euphrates meets the other rivers

Is now the home of the devil and the liar

And the pyre we plan to make

Is just the drift leaving its wake, home



Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns



And the films you want to watch

And the films you want to make

And the kids like lost angels

Dressed in black sensations

And the shift won't shake

And the drift won't brake

With billions of Diamonds growing like olives

And the drift holds the coffers



Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

Meanwhile Rome burns

The Riverboat Song Lyrics

I see double up ahead
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
It's more or less the same as the things that you said

I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed

It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow

It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars
And his double
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see double - that's my trouble

The Seventh Floor-Do Yourself a Favour B-Side Lyrics

Its so nice on the seventh floor

Im taking you there ? ? ? ?

I get scared I cant touch the ground

But I feel safe when my friends come round



Ever so nice - live on the seventh floor

Ever so nice - Im safe ? ? ?



So much fun on the seventh floor

Everyone laugh when you walk through the door

I get scared when my friends come around

I look at the walls and swallow most down



Ever so nice - live on the seventh floor

Ever so nice - Im safe ? ? ?



Ive been to every floor

And on every floor

And just/still dont feel any better

The Song Goes On Lyrics

I never left at all you were there before

Never let it go now I need some more

But you did confuse me you get it on get it on

And If I had to use me I? be there in the song



And the song goes on

Ah yeah and the song goes on



I?e been by the sides

Would?t you agree with me



Never fought it off kept away oh so bad

Don? like your world or the way you had

You secure your choice your?e around like a voice

Never let you know you were there every word



And the word goes on

Ah yeah and the word goes on



I?e been by the sides

Would?t you agree with me



It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth

It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth



Never left at all you were there like before

I never let it go now I need some more

Oh you did confuse me you?e in my way on and on

If I had to use me I? be there in the song



And the song goes on

Ah yeah and the song goes on



It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth

It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth

It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth

It depends on whose doorway you walk through

To find the truth
