I lay there through the night Your hand in mine Holding me so tight I didn't need to know If you'd come or go I didn't need you to Show me anything But the time's changed Sleeping time arranged Living with you was putting me Out of my mind Out of my mind
You wanted me to run to you You wanted me to say we were through But the time's are gonna go Just the way they know But the time's are gonna go Just the way they know Will you fill me with The destiny I need Will you fill me with A mind I can conceive
And every time you go away I know That my life is emptier For the time that you're away Every time I see you I know That it might be the last time That I ever show you Our love in my eyes In my eyes Come and go But darling You know it's just a matter of time Till my eyes go dim And our love becomes blind
Will you guide me through the night time Will you walk away and not know I have gone Will you listen to the words That I sing to you In the kisses of this song
Oh well the sun shines Upon your face Fills me with the feelings Of desire Like your skins on fire I will you cool your burning feelings I will cool you through the night When your hand is holding me so tight So tight So tight So tight So tight So tight
Used to be the way we were Happy go lucky little stars Every time we'd turn our way Every time was another day
Now you want to Take me to your heart Now you want to Never leave me alone
We used to be happy go lucky Used to be little stars Used to be everybody New every part Café society Would never let us be
Come one summer People were dancing in the square I looked on You were unaware
A million people sit together Waiting for the sun to shine Listening for their last words To echo for all time
It doesn't matter than you're not here now You don't call to tell me where you are You're in my mind as I drive my car A speeding in my car
I will call you When you're happy dreaming You lay awake My head to rest Our heads together You're not dreaming I reach out But you're not there
You're sleeping 6000 miles away Can you feel me Oh my head to pray
It doesn't matter than you're not here now You don't call to tell me where you are You're in my mind As I drive in my big fancy car
You're sleeping 6000 miles away Can you feel me Through your haze Can feel me Reaching out to touch you In my big fast car
I'm thinking about you In your big fast car
I woke up and I was lonely So I thought I would think of you Upon a boat in dreamy waters Of my sleep You were sleeping too Drifting out of view
Sometimes love comes and it… Sometimes love goes and it … Sometimes life is cheerful And sometimes it is blue
And I'm not with you anymore I'm staring at closed doors I'm staring at the closed doors of love
I was lying in bed and lonely I thought I don't want no more blues I turn away from your pillow “One more time”, again and again I need to leave you Leave you well alone But you're there In every echo of my heart Every echo of the phone Every time the light goes out I see you face Out of place Every place I look That's all I see I want you to get away from me
I want you to get away from me Love it comes and goes Like colours from a rainbow From red to blue And dark to out of view Wish I couldn't see you Wish I'd lose my love of you Wish I knew our heart Were no longer One but two Wish I could leave you alone But I hear you in every echo Of the phone Every time the light goes out I see you face I know it's time to go But I don't want to go I don't want to let you go right now I'll keep you till the time feels right Then I'll say goodbye Time to stop myself from crying Got to let our love die Got to move on
***
Love comes Love goes This world we all come to know But when the singers run out of time It's the time to get back on the line And move through to where you want to go Take the road and take your love
Loves comes to those Who do not wait for it There's no way to forsake it You can give and take it
My heart has been crying to you But there's nothing you can do And I'll dance to the songs of the stars And I'll dance to the horns of passing cars And I'll dance to the tears that you cry And I'll dance to the chants of goodbye
Do you know That the fading light Isn't always the beginning of the night It isn't always the wrong or right Isn't always the ending of the light
I will send you My love Through the night I will send you All my love Through the night And you'll come to me on a dream When I do not seem to believe To believe
My old man he never loved no one He always was the number one Left me at zero to keep Well my old man pulled a gun And I just stood there freezing under the sun My old man he didn't love no one Was always the number one
***
Sometimes I fly over my life And sometimes I see you lying there And sometimes I see myself Looking at you Looking at me And it hurts to see me cry for you But you're gone And the night feels wrong As I fly above my life And sometimes I swim to the depths of me I find you lying there So quietly Reaching out to me Reaching out to me
And sometimes I walk beside you Through desert storms My eyes are cut by sand
***
Cut me free Let me drift away If you don't want me here I don't want to stay
This boat rides Upon the tide of your goodbye
Your smile cuts across The rips and tide And I want to look inside Your mind
I want to hold you tight You'll whisper in the morning light But all you'll say is “It's a goodbye tide” It'll take you the other side
Don't want me looking side your love Don't want me looking inside your tears Don't want me seeing your future years
I can remember your soft hello Can remember how strong your love did grow I can remember how you felt to me As you whispered so gently
But the smell in the air Of the cold despair that I feel That this love could be real Laid your hand the deal
You want to play Russian roulette Or did you forget Between the sheets you roll the dice Between the sheets you rolled a life In the morning you whisper goodbye In the morning comes goodbye Goodbye girl Goodbye girl ***
We were always playing down on the riverside Mary and me well we one time nearly died But those times have gone And you're a long, long way from me Now I travel the world in search of Galilee
But you know that knowing a knowing point of view And I don't know nothing now Cos I know nothing is true Knowing time has gone Knowing something is wrong Knowing that you are a long way from me
In every time and every space That I leave to my memory Well I looked you upon But couldn't fish you out And I remember how You used to run your fingers through my hair But that was along time ago And the river doesn't flow The clouds upon my brow Are long gone anyhow
I don't know if you're even alive or dead But you are still In my mind girl And though I can not find you girl You are alive and well In the memories I carry for you Even though memories are never true I keep the sky so blue for you *** Cool Breeze - riverside jam 11 august 2005
Part 1
Well the cool breeze Blows my love away Takes my baby today Oh the cool wind It drives my love away Sometimes I'm singing for you It's gonna go away It's gonna go away Well that cool wind It blows my love away
Gonna take something to remember Gonna take you sometimes to forget you were you But your heart mends Even in a cool breeze That keeps blowing over me
It's a cool breeze That me blew me to your knees That takes my love away It's a cool breeze That lost me
It's a cool breeze That's been blowing through my needs And it's taking my heart A long way you know And the summer sun is gone now And the sky is full of clouds now And I want you to know That the cool breeze It's a cool breeze That blows through my needs Taking my heart To leave Don't you ever wonder What could have been between us If you'd let go of your dreams
It's a cool breeze Blowing through my needs And the summer time has gone And the sky has filled with cold
It's a cool breeze Blowing through my needs And I wonder where you sleep Tonight And I wonder whose arms hold you tight
It's a cool breeze That arches over our needs That blows the clouds away That keeps the dreams till day
Takes the love we had And carefully pushes it away
Part 2
Why do I see your face In the crowds of any place Every time I drive away It's your face in the parking bay
Why do you walk away Knowing I want you to stay Can't you see what it does to me To know you'll never stay
A question may turn upon The answers that I leave And every time I look away It's you who can't agree
At night I try to waken you Got to get away But every time I look around It's your face that goes astray
A thousand dancers dance around me Spinning slowly Spinning fast Every time I turn away They march me in to my past
Well I know that your love has gone And you don't care no more Every time I look away You're breaking down my door
Well the story books advise on roses So I throw flowers in your hair I turn around to see where they fall But they're never there
Oh well I look across to your front door To see if the light's on I search the house I ring the bell To find that you are gone
I show your picture to the postman He's been programmed to believe I turn around to call your name But find that he can't read
And in the silence of confusion I etch your face upon the lake I turn around in full submission But it's freedom that you take ***
Sat by the fireside Looked at your face in the light Couldn't tell what was wrong or right Kept on hearing your sighs Sat next to you at the lakeside Saw the sunlight on your eyes Wanted to hold you tight But I just didn't know what was right ***
Well the end is near It makes me weak I read the words you wrote of us I loved you too much baby - an obsession well it ain't healthy But the balance of our love had no even keel So now the end is near 09 May 2005
Sunday Morning comes And look out my window Sun is shining and people come Everywhere I turn I see you and “me”s And in the window on the balcony Come to me now Coz I held you through the night Come with me and it'll be alright Every time I hold I feel a shiver down my spine Every time I'm with you I feel oh so fine
Come Monday morning Make my way to work People surround me But all I see is your face in front of me All I see is your love for me
Monday night I'm in your arms and held so tight Can not let this love linger or say goodbye Tuesday and Wednesday I'll be working But all I'll be thinking is “me and you”
Thursday night we'll meet for dinner I will drink to your happiness Friday night we'll be together In states of undress It's the best It's the best
Saturday night comes Every thing will be done Saturday night will be fun We will be one Through the night Holding you tight Till Sunday comes alive Comes alive
“Charlie and me” jamming on the 20 th September 2005
Part 1 Unintelligible I walk away with my sack on my back You were going round
In the old town It's your town
I travel far and I travel wide Every body leaves or dies in my life I won't wait to see where you'll be going
I didn't need to know if you'd be leaving But love can come from anywhere I didn't need to have a heart that cares I didn't believe in looking for I just believed in searching for the truth
So I'll be leaving you with the truth
Well if the rain comes to follow me I'll take shelter where we used to be Where your love came in the middle of the night You know it's right As it ties its lines around your mind
I'm waiting by your car I'm waiting for peace of mind In my heart
Because I'm waiting for love It's gonna I'm gonna feel love for you
In the meantime I'm a waiting for your car I'm a waiting for you to start I'm a waiting to goi to my heart Coz I'm a waiting
Unintelligible
Part 3 Just chatter and strumming then breaks in to Creedence Clearwater Revival 's “ Bad Moon Rising ”
*** I haven't been able to find any recordings that match the lyrics below
I was chilling out eating chilli chicken The city sun is sliding westwards At night I lay in my big empty bed Well the morning air smells as fresh as the silence In my life I've loved a whole load of women 03/05/05
© Simon Smith 01/05/2005 I feel like you've given up You used to want to come and see me I can't tell if you're here or gone I've been trying to find a new world I know it ain't right to cling on to the old days I know we spend so long looking at closed doors
You tell me that you chose me But you are like the sea When you met me I stood on the shore Loving you gives me sea legs The tide is turning, we feel the change 18 03 2005
