(lyrics © Carus
Thompson) I’ll tell you babe,
Where my head is at the moment.
Feel like I’m gonna break down and cry
I’ve got a sad tale, a tale everybody knows.
But to me, it feels like its cutting me right to the
bone.
You said you’d always
need me,
Now your needing someone else,
Me, I just got these pictures on my wall and in my head.
You said you’d always love me,
Then I watched you walk away.
Think im gonna breakdown and say…
Yeah, I’ll give you
all I got.
And I got nothing left to give.
I’ll give you every little bit of everything I
have to give yeah.
See me fall, see me fall,
See me fall, see me fall,
See me crack in side oh babe,
I feel like I’m going to open up my heart
It’s gonna fall out, your going to see my from
the inside, yeah
I feel like I’m breaking up, I got a drink a lot,
I gotta smoke anything I can babe, I gotta remember
your loving
And the touch of your hand.
You said you’d always
need me,
Now your needing someone else,
Me, I just got these pictures on my wall and in my head.
You said you’d always love me,
Then I watched you walk away.
Think im gonna breakdown and say…
Yeah, I’ll give you
all I got.
And I got nothing left to give.
I’ll give you every little bit of everything I
have to give yeah.
See me when I fallin through
the cracks
When your feeling that my love isn’t gonna come
down babe,
See me when I fall like a can’t believe,
Oh your lovin that I can’t believe.
Sitting in my room dreaming of you babe,
Playing with myself, gonna breakdown, gonna breakdown.
When you fall babe, I won’t
catch you no more,
When you see me fall down, I’m breaking down for
you babe,
I’m alone, come strong, it’s straight from
the heart babe.
But I give it to you, even though I’m gonna fall
through
I’m gonna breakdown for you girl
All I Got.

When the lights streaming
through your window babe,
On the ground where I could just fall,
I’ll be stumbling down the street babe,
Knocking on your door.
That’s what a lover is for.
Maybe I drank too much again
last night,
Maybe I’m coming down from the drugs that lie,
Need to know what I’m worth by,
Am I worthy of your smile?
Can I steal some time?
Sometimes this life gets
too much
Sometimes I feel like I’m crackin up
That’s when I need the human touch
The touch of your hand,
A lover that understands.
Remember when I took that
trip to the river babe
Stood on the sand and stared at the still breeze
Went stumbling down backstreets babe
So you could sooth me sane.
Teach me the way.
Sometimes this life gets
too much
Sometimes I feel like I’m crackin up
That’s when I need the human touch
The touch of your hand,
A lover that understands.
And I float, to cities babe
And I’ve crossed seas and mountains played.
And I’ve kissed angels, in my dreams
But a lover’s only ease, is a lover to please.
Watch me when I walk
When I’m dirty make me clean
Hold me through the truth and lies and all and everything
in between
And if I fall from the grapevine but into your arms.
Babe, I won’t feel it.
For your love is real.
And you can heal me.

Says this life is so complicated,
It twists and turns, it’s bright and it’s
faded.
She says, I could never be who I was back then,
Too much shit thrown out the window, you could never
mend.
And you are so much of me, but you come and you go,
And you do as you please. And I know I could have a
child with you,
Though our river runs red, the sky is blue.
And I say give it one more chance,
Getting older each day, I still believe in romance,
And I’ve still never met anyone quiet like you,
And although our river runs red, our sky is blue,
yeah I won’t hesitate, can fly in from where I
ever am.
Babe I won’t wait.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.
Say the word babe and I’ll be there,
Say the word babe, and I’ll be there.
Talking to my friends wife
backstage the other day
She was telling me the same story, she was holding their
baby.
She says eventually you grow up and realise you’ve
never met somebody so cool,
And although your river runs as red, your sky is blue,
yeah I won’t hesitate, can fly in from where I
ever am.
Babe I won’t wait.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.

Feel free to go away,
Down that road.
You got your own life.
You could never be told.
But no, I won’t wait for you.
Like some other fools do.
Why wait for something,
That might never come true.
And I might think of you,
When the night time falls.
But if I need some company
Someone else I can call.
They might not be you,
But they can keep me warm.
And I won’t be needing you,
When the daylight comes.
You got your aspirations
babe,
And I’ve got mine.
One of them is never to waste.
This God given time.
For this world is beautiful
And God knows, so are you.
So I just take a long walk babe,
Every time I think of you.
And you might come back this
way,
One lonesome day.
And you might look for me,
And I might feel the same,
But it will be too late babe,
For our choices will be made.
You got your life,
And I grab mine.
I was never one to believe
In fate nor signs.
But I swear there was something babe,
About you and I.
And I will be thinking of you,
Every time I cry.
And I will be thinking of you.
Every time I cry.
And I will be thinking of you.
Every time I cry.

Mondays a different
day for us
More like a weekend, no need to rush
And I finished the gig early last night
Everyone’s at work no one to hear me hold you
tight
Oh Sweet Mondays
Now when I get high, I just get higher
Now when I get drunk it’s because I want to
You’re living down on ol’ Jenkin St, near
where the sun, sea, sky they meet
And outside its just hit 32 degrees
Oh Sweet Mondays

I can watch green rolling plains yeah,
pass by window all day
And I can drive this hire car hard babe, but it won’t
bring me closer yeah
I can the easyjet anywhere, three countries in one day
But it won’t bring me closer to you and I can’t
outrun this pain
Nothing is still nothing
I can be in your bed babe, but I can still be far away
When A lovers desperate for you, you gotta keep them
at bay
I’ve been so far yeah, and I’ve been so
close
And if I poured my heart out on this stage, this crowd
might not listen anymore
Nothing is still nothing
All I can do, is try
And if nothing goes right
You’ll be fine
Nothing is still nothing

Sometimes it feels like the worlds coming
at you from all sides
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
And you’re friends wont answer the phone
You’re friends won’t understand, cause they’ve
got plans and means
Feels like you’re moving fast but sinking slow
Hold on, hold on, It’ll be alright
Feels like every race you’re going
to go in you’re gonna loose
And you can chose, left or right, right or wrong
Can’t even write the next song
Got every fine in the world, parking fine, speeding
fine
Feels like you’re moving fast but sinking slow
Hold on, hold on, It’ll be alright

Yeah regret is something I know
Yeah regret it keeps you cold
I carry it with me, when I go around
Yeah regret it keeps me down
Maybe one day I’ll only do the things
I want
Maybe one day I’ll know what I want
Yeah regret is something I’ve learned
Yeah regret baby it make you burn
Carry it this way, carry it that way
Yeah regret is something I’ve earned
Maybe one day I’ll only do the things
I want
Maybe one day I wont get so drunk

If you smile at me babe I’ll love
you for a day
If you kiss me soft and slow I’ll give it all
away
And if you sleep with me babe I’ll make you my
whole world
Cause I’m lonely yeah, And things make more than
they mean
Walking down the street I smile at anyone
passing my way
Wont take much for me to say that you’re the girl
of my dreams
Cause I’m lonely yeah I don’t know what
things mean
Gotta check myself
I might be a waste of time for you babe, write a songs
for you
But it might not be the truth
Gotta keep a watch on myself or I might
give it all away
Misinterpret what I feel, misinterpret what you say
Might seem like I’m a fool but please know that
not
I’m just in a weird space, and I just can’t
get out
Coz I’m fragile, the wind might
blow me away
Coz I’m fragile, please smile at me today
Coz I’m fragile, don’t know what love is
yeah
Gotta check myself
So tell me know do you know what love
is, true love, well I think I know
There one who I would walk through fire for, I would
burn myself to the bone
Hey baby where does it go from here, or don’t
you really know
Coz I need your loving yeah, this feeling I got wont
ever go

Just say: Don’t see my baby cry
a lot and make it up! Think funky!

Rise up babe
Into the summer sun
Cold winters gone baby

Long night are gone

Long nights are gone
