Intro: Guess I'm Into Feeling

I guess I'm into feeling

Higher lately

Higher than I've ever been

This thing called love

(Repeated)

Rescue Me

Love is cast ornately in your heart flame

Chakra wheels are turning like a love train

I could pray a hundred times
Keep these demons from my mind
I could pray a thousand times
Stay in your lovin' arms entwined (in your lovin' arms entwined)

Oh that I should be ever so lonely
Drivin' the pain right through to my heart
Oh that I should be ever so lonely
Ridin' the pain like a fool in the dark

We shall blur the lines of definition
Waves of love our only ammunition

Tear my head out from the sound
Throw myself upon the ground (take me to the burn, in your lovin' arms)
Take me to the burning tree
It has this strange effect on me (ridin' on the train, maybe I could pray)

Oh that I should be ever so lonely
Drivin' the pain right through to my heart
Oh that I should be ever so lonely (ever so lonely)
Ridin' the pain like a fool in the dark

Oh that I should be ever so lonely (there has to be)
Drivin' the pain right through to my heart
Oh that I should be ever so lonely (the way it's got to be)
Ridin' the pain like a fool in the dark

Fascination never tasted sweeter
My desire real and soaring freely

You alone can save my soul
You alone are my salvation
You alone can make me whole
Rescue me from condemnation (my salvation)

Oh that I should be ever so lonely
Drivin' the pain right through to my heart
Oh that I should be ever so lonely (ever so lonely)
Ridin' the pain like a fool in the dark

Oh that I should be ever so lonely (there has to be...ever so lonely)
Drivin' the pain right through to my heart
Oh that I should be ever so lonely
Ridin' the pain like a fool in the dark

Ridin' the pain right through to your heart
You've got the love, you've got the love
You've got the love now, I've got the love now
Who are you to walk away from?
We've got the love, you've got the love, I've got the love
You've got the love, You've got the love
I've got the love now, I've got the love now

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

That what it takes for a devil should say
You never want chill in your heartroom, baby
Heart, you don't ever want it to stay
Take your own heartroom away

Sono Luminus

I never thought that I would reach you

Though I've been searching, for oh so many years

This place I am seems unfamiliar

But there's a light, to break through all my fears

Still, time and time again
I'm looking for the love
The one that can inspire

Lift me higher, high as heaven can be (sono luminus)
Love is here, where it always will be, deep inside of us

I'm looking out into the distance
The sound of thunder is rolling into my head
The sky is stretching out before me
Thanks for today, everything is blessed

So, here we go again
We'll be searching for the truth
Until the twelfth of never

Lift me higher, high as heaven can be (sono luminus)
Love is here, where it always will be, deep inside of us

I never thought that I would reach you
Feels like this road has been going on for miles
Don't have to write or even see you
'Cause there's a light, burning on the inside

Still, time and time again
We're looking for the love
The one that can inspire

Lift me higher, high as heaven can be
Our love is super love, fly robin fly
Wherever you are, saint or sinner be strong (sono luminus)
Lift me higher, high as heaven can be
Our love is super love, burn baby burn (sono luminus, sono luminus)

Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summer's Day)

Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

A hint of a scent then it's gone

Look at the state of you

You're all fingers and thumbs

So who's your latest flame?
Drivin' em wild in the fast lane?
Won't say I told you so
But the boy has no shame

Once when my hands were full
We were double or quits then some
Nothin' at all to show for a love so precious

Gone and blown it all
How can you say
"It doesn't matter much to me"?
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Gone and blown it all
And then you say
"This can't be happening to me"
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
The thrill of the chase then it's gone
Only the hurt to prove
That it ever went on

And life is a wonderful thing
When you're humming the words to a love song
Do what you wanna do
Be who you want to be

When I'm in your arms I'm strong
There's nowhere I'd rather be
We shine for liberty, life
And the pursuit of pleasure

Gone and blown it all
How can you say
"It doesn't matter much to me"?
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Gone and blown it all
And then you say
"This can't be happening to me"
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

And how the days have flown too few and fast
They said it wasn't ment to last
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Rock Me Gently

Past five in the morning

Feeling worse for the weather it seems

But what a feeling

What and endless night this has been

Woah, oh, oh

And we can't stay here
'Cause we won't be forever young
We'll have to go down
Before innocence is lost

And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms

Woah, woah

I've been getting used to all the crying
And the games that you play
And if I carry on I'm going to end up
With a hole in my head

Woah, oh, oh

And there's more to life
Than thrills and spills and dollar bills
We'll have to get through
Some way and some how

And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms

Woah, oh, oh...

Grace

Looking in the papers makes me sorry to be human

A little ray of hope won't hurt at all

A price on every head and it's cheaper when you're dead

Quality of life may have to fall

Muffled voices, world in action
Stir the peaceful, need for longing

I... cannot describe the fear inside my heart
I... hereby do swear to live my life in accordance with grace

Guess it's human nature to be cruel and heartless
But that's no reason to shoot him when he's down
Crawl in on your knees and then bite the hand that feeds
The cages throw their shadows across the ground

Where's the sense in senseless violence
Hear the silence too forgiving

I... cannot describe the fear inside my heart
I... hereby do swear to live my life in accordance with grace

Press your hands in, into the pavement
Bathed in glory, here's your moment

I... cannot describe the fear inside my heart
(I... hereby do swear to live my life in accordance with grace)
I... herebydo swear to live my life in accordance with grace
(I... cannot describe the fear inside my heart)

Stay With Me

Tempered by greed, tall buildings breathe

Give a sigh of relief when it's night

Stirring from sleep, we night owls creep

Is there any sign of life under this stone?

Star chime, hollow and true

Love, child

Weep for me, and I will cast your wheels in motion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion

Sheltered by creed, one piled on one
Do you have a little room for one small one?
Light shine, wild and free
Sun, rise

Weep for me, and I will set your wheels in motion
Keep with me, like a roller on the ocean
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion

(Here we are, in the sunshine)
(Everything is fine)
(Here we are, in the sunshine)
(Everything is fine)

Weep for me, and the sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, 'till rays of sunshine fill the ocean
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion

Weep for me, and the sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, like a roller on the ocean
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion

The sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, and rays of sunshine will fill the ocean
Walk with me, the inner reaches of emotion

Love The Way You Do So

On and on and on

Here's the break of dawn

Coming through the window (heart)

Pull yourself a chair up (love)

On and on and on
Quiver like a reed
Let yourself a go-go (old man)
Honour me a solo (young one)

Careful not to give yourself away
There is still tomorrow and a heart felt meaning
When you get that feeling you'll recall
A night love in motion

We shall lie
Warm inside
Quite at ease
Watch me slide
Love the way you do so

We shall lie
Side by side
Here and now
Talk in turn
Love the way you do so

Time is rolling on
Blending with the mind
Love the way you tease me (heart)
Tear another layer off (love)

Listen to the stillness of the day
Drawing ever closer like your heart is beating
And when I hear it beating I will recall
A night of love in motion

We shall lie
Warm inside
Quite at ease
Watch me slide
Love the way you do so

We shall lie
Side by side
Here and now
Talk in turn
Love the way you do so

(I want to be near your side)
(I want to be near your side)
(I want to be in your arms again)

We shall lie
Warm inside
Quite at ease
Watch me slide
Love the way you do so

We shall lie
Side by side
Here and now
Talk in turn
Love the way you do so

Angel

See how much you mean to me

You're my electric symphony in blue

Just one look in your eyes

Maybe I was hypnotised by you

You told me on the telephone
Of a picture so serene
And the beat goes on
Feels like a fever burning, and I say

Yes to your love and there's no secrets
High and ascending, delving deeper
Fly like an angel wing unfurling
Fanning the flames of love eternal

All around the world
The love will manifest itself in special ways
Up there on the shelf
In spiritual or sexual relays

I want you, Yeah, I crave you
I need you next to me
Locking the lip-sync on
A rocket to red hot love perfection

Here we go round and there's no secrets
High and ascending, delving deeper
Under the water clear as crystal
Spinning around in giant circles
Fly like an angel wings unfurling
Fanning the flames of love eternal

You say "Reach me, I'll be your deity,
Come and touch me, make it real"
Turning the charm full on
Sending me into excitation

Here we go round no room for secrets
High and ascending delving deeper
Love is resounding clear as crystal
Spinning around in giant circles

Our message is love and there's no secrets
Ever evolving heavenly creatures
Fly like an angel wings unfurling
Fanning the flames of love eternal

I Love You

You made your bed, now lie in it

You masochist of mayhem

This mortal coil is up for grabs

In danger forever

I would swear that there must be
A thousand personalities insde your head
Now I would swear that there must be
A thousand possibilities to mend your heart

Now take these words and tie them up
And give them back, give them back

For I...
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, I love you

You can call collect, and I reject your foul abuse
And your language
Where's your sense of etquette?
Can't you assess the damage?

I would swear that there must be
A thousand personalities insde your head
Now I would swear that there must be
A thousand possibilities to mend your heart

Now take these tears and cry in them
Your pillow dear and I'll be near

For I...
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, I love you

(Take these tears)
(Pillow, dear)
(Take these tears, pillow)

I would swear that there must be
A thousand personalities insde your head
Now I would swear that there must be
A thousand possibilities to mend your heart

Now take these tears and cry in them
Your pillow dear and I'll be near

For I...
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, I love you

(Take these tears)
(Pillow, dear)
(Take these tears, tears)

I see you, I hear you, I feel you, love you
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, love you
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, love you
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, love you
I see you, I hear you, I feel you, love you
Ohhhhh, woah

A Long Goodbye

In these days of mine for keeps

I'm trying to hold on

When suddenly you're all out of reach

And everything goes wrong

What we say and what we do

Are entirely different things

Meaningless straight through the roof

It's now how it should be

Easy like a bird
I ride the breeze
My mind is falling

You're so ordinary, you're my santuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart and a long goodbye
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy land of milk and honey
Life is just an illusion

I just don't know what to believe in
If the truth be known
Suffering from soul fatique
Weathering the storm
What we say and what we do
Are entirely different things
The whisperings dissolve the room
Well it's now how it should be

Swaying like a tree
I feel the sky
Somebody calling

You're so ordinary, be my santuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart and a dumb goodbye
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey
Life is just an illusion, darling

Easy like a bird
I ride the breeze
My mind is falling

You're so ordinary, be my santuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart and a long goodbye
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey
Life is just an illusion

You're so ordinary, santuary, be my one in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart and a dumb goodbye
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey
Life is just an illusion

You're so ordinary, santuary, be my light in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart and a long goodbye
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey
Life is just an illusion, darling
