Writing To Reach You
          Every day I wake up and it's Sunday
          Whatever's in my head won't go away
          The radio is playing all the usual
          And what's a wonderwall anyway
          Because my inside is outside
          My right side's on the left side
          'Cos I'm writing to reach you
          But I might never reach you
          I long to teach you about you
          But that's not you
          It's good to know that you are home for Christmas
          It's good to know that you are doing well
          It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
          It's good to know I'm feeling not so well
          Because my inside is outside
          My right side's on the left side
          'Cos I'm writing to reach you
          But I might never reach you
          I long to teach you about you
          But that's not you
          Do you know it's true
          And that won't do
          Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday
          And whatever's in my head should go away
          Still the radio keeps playing all the usual
          And what's a wonderwall anyway
          Because my inside is outside
          My right side's on the left side
          'Cos I'm writing to reach you
          But I might never reach you
          I long to teach you about you
          But that's not you
          Do you know it's true
          And that won't do
          You know it's you
          I'm talking to
                                         The Fear
          All I wanted was the chance to say
          I would like to see you in the morning
          Rolling over to have you there
          Would make it easy for a little bit longer
          But here
          Closer every year
          So near
          The fear is coming clear
          My dear
          The fear is here
          Hottest summer in a hundred years
          But summer didn't bother
          Getting up this morning
          And so all the trees forgot to wake
          They were dropping all their leaves
          On the ground below them
          But here
          Closer every year
          So near
          The fear is coming clear
          My dear
          The fear is here
          All I wanted was the chance to say
          I would like to see you in the morning
          Rolling over just to have you there
          Would make it easy for a little bit longer
          Make it easy for a little bit longer
          Make it easy for a little bit longer
          Make it easy for a little bit longer
          Make it easy for a little bit longer
          Make it easy for a little bit longer
As You Are
          Everyday I wake up alone
          I'm not like all the other boys
          And ever since I was young
          I had no choice
          But it's OK to lead me on
          I admit it's not much fun
          To be led on by such a one
          As you are
          As you are
          As you are
          And ever since I woke up I felt the net
          Was lifting me out of the sea
          And even when I'm sinking I feel the need
          But it's OK to lead me on
          I must admit it's not much fun
          To be alone with such a one
          As you are
          As you are
          As you are
          And ever since a long time
          I felt the rain
          And there was no danger
          And no more strangers
          As you are
Driftwood
          Everything is open
          Nothing is set in stone
          Rivers turn to oceans
          Oceans tide you home
          Home is where the heart is
          But your heart had to roam
          Drifting over bridges
          Never to return
          Watching bridges burn
          You're driftwood floating underwater
          Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
          Just driftwood, hollow and of no use
          Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
          Nobody is an island
          Everyone had to go
          Pillars turn to butter
          Butterflying low
          Low is where your heart is
          But your heart has to grow
          Drifting under bridges
          Never with the flow
          And you really didn't think it would happen
          But it really is the end of the line
          So I'm sorry that you've turned to driftwood
          But you've been drifting for a long, long time
          Everywhere there's trouble
          Nowhere's safe to go
          Pushes turn to shovels
          Shovelling the snow
          Frozen you have chosen
          The path you wish to go
          Drifting now forever
          And forever more
          Until you reach your shore
          You're driftwood floating underwater
          Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
          Just driftwood, hollow and of no use
          Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
          And you really didn't think it would happen
          But it really is the end of the line
          So I'm sorry that you've turned to driftwood
          But you've been drifting for a long, long time
          You've been drifting, for a long, long
          Drifting for a long, long time
The Last Laugh Of the Laughter
          When the laughter fades away
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          When there's nothing left to say
          Ma vie
          My oh my
          It's the last laugh of the laughter
          Sur la dernier page du chapitre
          On the last day of the year
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          When the spotlight fades away
          Ma vie
          C'est la vie
          When the blue skies turn to grey
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          It's the last laugh of the laughter
          Sur la dernier page du chapitre
          On the last day of the year
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          When the laughter fades away
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          When there's nothing more to say
          Ma vie
          My oh my
          It's the last laugh of the laughter
          Sur la dernier page du chapitre
          On the last day of the year
          Ma vie
          Tout ma vie
          Ma vie
          My oh my
Turn
          I want to see what people saw
          I want to feel like I felt before
          I want to see the kingdom come
          I want to feel forever young
          I want to sing
          To sing my song
          I want to live in a world where I belong
          I want to live
          I will survive
          And I believe that it won't be very long
          If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
          Then we might learn
          So where's the stars?
          Up in the sky
          And what's the moon?
          A big balloon
          We'll never know unless we grow
          There's so much world outside the door
          I want to sing
          To sing my song
          I want to live in a world where I'll be strong
          I want to live
          I will survive
          And I believe that it won't be very long
          If we turn, turn, turn, turn
          And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
          Then we might learn
          Turn, turn, turn, turn
          Turn, turn, turn
          And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
          Then we might learn
          Learn to turn
Why Does It Always Rain On Me?
          I can't sleep tonight
          Everybody saying everything's alright
          Still I can't close my eyes
          I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
          Sunny days
          Where have you gone?
          I get the strangest feeling you belong
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Even when the sun is shining
          I can't avoid the lightning
          I can't stand myself
          I'm being held up by an invisible man
          Still life on a shelf when
          I got my mind on something else
          Sunny days
          Where have you gone?
          I get the strangest feeling you belong
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Even when the sun is shining
          I can't avoid the lightning
          Oh, where did the blue skies go?
          And why is it raining so?
          It's so cold
          I can't sleep tonight
          Everybody's saying everything's all right
          Still I can't close my eyes
          I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of the lights
          Sunny days
          Where have you gone?
          I get the strangest feeling you belong
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
          Even when the sun is shining
          I can't avoid the lightning
          Oh, where did the blue skies go?
          And why is it raining so?
          It's so cold
          Why does it always rain on me?
          Why does it always rain on....
Luv
          What's so wrong?
          Why the face so long
          Is it over?
          And where you going that
          You no longer belong here?
          And distance tells you that
          Distance must come between love
          Where have you been Luv?
          When the mistake we made
          Was in never having planned to fall in love, Luv
          Singing this song
          Singing along
          Makes it easier for me to see you go
          But in doing so
          I'm letting you go
          It only serves to show me
          That I'm still in love with you
          Singing this song
          Singing along
          Makes it easier for me to see you go
          But in doing so
          In letting you go
          It only serves to show me
          That I'm still in love with you
          So what's so wrong?
          Why the face?
          So long
          Are you changing?
          And where you been to that
          You no longer remember?
          And distance tells you that
          Distance must come between love
          Where have you been Luv?
          It's just the chance we took
          Having never ever planned to fall in love, Luv
          Having never ever planned to fall in love, Luv
          Having never ever planned to fall in love, Luv
          Luv
She's So Strange
          She's so strange
          And she wore a black moustache
          And pilfered all the petty cash
          She went to Birmingham
          She'll soon be in the can
          She's so cruel
          And she knew what just what to do
          And while the cats were all sniffing glue
          They played their silly games
          And now they'll take the blame
          What she'd done
          And she didn't know quite what she did
          And they told her that she better had
          So now she starts to cry
          Without a reason why
          She's so poor
          And only now she's looking back
          Sees her story on a paperback
          What will become of her
          There's not much left for her
Slide Show
          Today is the day
          For dancing and for singing
          The birds in the trees and all
          The bells are ringing
          The sun is in the sky
          Is bright as bright second light
          Is bright oh god I hope I'm alright
          Cause I'm gonna cry
          Hold on, hold on
          Slow down, slow down
          You're out of touch
          Out of touch
          'Cause there is no design for life
          There's no devil's haircut in my mind
          There is not a wonderwall to climb
          To climb or step around
          But there is a slide show and it's so slow
          Flashing through my mind
          Today was the day
          But only for the first time
          Hold on, hold on
          Slow down, slow down
          You're out of touch
          Out of touch
          'Cause there is no design for life
          There is no devil's haircut in your mind
          There is not a wonderwall
          To climb or step around
          But there is a slidesshow and it's so slow
          Flashing through my mind
          Today was the day
          But only for the first time
          I hope it's not the last time
Blue Flashing Light
          Saturday evening
          Saturday evening
          A quarter to five
          Oh we see him arrive at the door
          Pushed you aside as he staggered inside
          Spitting alcohol over the floor
          A storm is abrew
          And it's sure to fall soon
          As I look at you from the shore
          So you'd better hold on
          Cos it's Saturday night
          And your friends are all out
          And you feel like shit
          Cos they never call you
          No they never call you
          No they never call, never call, never bloody ever ...
          Call me a name and I'll hit you again
          You're a slut, you're a bitch, you're a whore
          Talk to your daddy in that tone of voice
          There's a belt hanging over the door
          So you run to your room and you hide in your room
          Thinking how you can settle the score
          But it's Saturday night and a quarter to six
          And your friends are all out
          But you live in the sticks
          Still they never call you
          No they never call you
          No they never call, never call, never bloody ever call
          Blue flashing light last Saturday night
          Brought the neighbours all out on the street
          Watched as the firemen carried you out
          Then we stared at each other's feet
          Now everyone sees and yet nobody says
          Are we all just afraid of the heat?
          But it's Saturday night and I'm lying alone
          In the bed that I made, disconnected the phone
          Still they never called you
          No they never call you
          No they never call, never call, never bloody ever call
