     If you twist and turn away
     If you tear yourself in two again
     If I could, you know I would
     If I could, I would 
     Let it go
     Surrender
     Dislocate

     If I could throw this
     Lifeless lifeline to the wind
     Leave this heart of clay
     See you break, break away
     Into the night
     Through the rain
     Into the half-light
     Through the flame

     If I could through myself
     Set your spirit free
     I'd lead your heart away
     See you break, break away
     Into the light
     Through the day

     So let it go
     And so fade away
     To let it go
     And so fade away

     Wide awake
     I'm wide awake
     I'm not sleeping
     Oh, no, no, no
     I'm not sleeping

     If they should ask, well maybe they'd
     Tell me what I should say
     True colors fly in blue and black
     Bruised silken sky and burning flag
     Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

     If I could, you know I would
     If I could, I would
     Let it go...

     This desparation
     Separation
     Condemnation
     Revelation
     In temptation
     Isolation
     Desolation
     Isolation
     Let it go

     And so fade away
     To let it go
     And so fade....fade...
     Fade away...

     Not fade away, hey, hey
     Not fade away
     No, no, no, not fade away

     Wide awake
     I'm wide awake
     Wide awake
     I'm wide awake
     Wide awake
     I'm not sleeping
     Oh, no, no, no
     I'm not sleeping

     Come on down
     Come on down
     Come on down
     (Sing it)
     Come on down

 

      *** A Sort of Homecoming ***


   The original version can be found on
       The Unforgettable Fire. 



     And you know it's time to go
     Through the sleet and driving snow
     Across the fields of mourning
     Light in the distance

     And you hunger for the time
     Time to heal, desire time
     And your earth moves beneath
     Your own dream landscape

     Oh, oh, oh...
     On borderland we run...
     Hmmmm...hmmmmm...

     I'll be there
     I'll be there
     Tonight
     We'll build a bridge
     Across the sea and land

     The city walls are all pulled down
     The dust, a smoke screen all around
     Faces ploughed like fields that once
     Gave no resistance

     Oh, oh, oh...
     On borderland we run
     And stll we run
     We run and don't look back
     I'll be there
     I'll be there
     Tonight
     Tonight

     I'll be there tonight
     I'll be there somehow
     Oh come away oh come away, oh come
     Oh come away I say I
     Oh come away oh come away, oh come
     Oh come away I say

     Ah, the wind will crack in winter time
     This bomb-blast lightning waltz
     No spoken words, just a scream...

     Tonight
     We'll build a bridge
     Across the sea and land

     I'll be there
     I'll be there
     Tonight
     Tonight

     And your heart beats so slow
     Through the sleet and driving snow
     Across the fields of mourning
     Lights in the distance

     Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
     For tonight with you
     I am coming home
     I am coming home

 

      *** Three Sunrises ***




     Spirit of the rising sun lift me up
     Hold me there and never let me fall
     Love me till I die, my heart won't wait
     Soon I will be loved...

     In this love song, love
     Love song, love song

     Hey, hey, love won't find
     Find its own way home

     In this a love song, love
     Love, love song

     Sun shine, sun shine on me
     Sun shine, sun shine on me

     In this love song, love
     Love song, love song

     Hey, hey, love won't find
     Find its own way home

     In this love song, love song
     Love song, love song
     Sun shine on me
     Bring it through to my heart
     I would give you everything
     I will give you my desire

     Sun shine, sunshine on me
     Sun shine, sunshine on me


 
       
      *** Love Comes Tumbling ***




     Love don't need to find a way
     You find your own way
     I forget that I can't stay
     And so I say that
     All roads lead to where you are
     All roads lead to where you are

     The seed is spilled, the bed defiled
     For you, a virgin bride
     Hide yourself in someone else
     Don't find yourself in me

     I can't lift you up again
     Love comes tumbling down again

     Love don't need to find a way
     You find your own way
     I forget that you can stay
     And so I say that
     All roads lead to where you are
     All roads lead to where you are
