1. When Debbie's back from Texas

When Debbie's back from Texas
This is the last place he'll be leaving
He'll cross the courtyard
Smilingly open the gate
When Debbie's back from Texas
He'll be moving back to Greenwich
It takes you no time
You just follow the bridge
Indian summer evening
Let the shadows backslide
When the pond is drained
You think you can walk on the ground they call it trust
I brought all that I needed
I took all that was mine
I could think of a few more
Things to believe in
But I don't know about love
She'll answer you Like lovers do
She'll answer you Like lovers do
You'll try to figure out
What life would be without her
I'm standing by the window
Suddenly feeling so small
Cars go by and life
I feel like I could try just a little more
I'm a true believer
And no lover of starshine
I know where this is leading
This is my last chance
She'll answer you Like lovers do
She'll answer you Like lovers do
Like lovers do

2. Crime

Whatever made me glow
It's gone now
But I pretend I'm having it still

You know it's getting very hard
To go on now
But I pretend I want to

You know it wasn't really me
You know I wasn't really there
I would have thought more carefully
I would have turned away

You know it wasn't really me
You know I wouldn't really care
But someone looking just like me
Just turned around and you were there

My fingerprints are on the wall
Can I go now
Cause I've got nothing more to say

Except I didn't want to fall
So be still now
As I'm walking slowly away

My fingerprints are all over the world
You see my jacket in the street what if they hear your heart beat
Cause you've been seen with another girl
She's in everyone you meet and I can hear your heart beat

3. Fireworks

These fires never die
They told me this would help
I'm walking by the water

I'm falling with the tide
They said that this would end
I went as far as I could

I'm on distant ground now
Fishing-boats go by
I fall asleep too early

I scream when no one hears me
The waves will wipe it out
And we'll be even

I turn my face to
From wherever the wind blows
Is it worth so much to try?

I'm at the airport waiting
For lights to fade below
And then: something else

All instant things are fading
The pain will go
I won't remember

And if the lights went out
If the elevator stopped
If we were lost where I was

Or in the deepest tunnel
The train just stopped
But you gave me no chance

I turn my face to
from wherever the wind blows
Is it worth so much to try?

4. Proposal

Sunday morning
No I'm not crying
If you would pretend
You were still asleep
The kids would be playing

While I forget
A lot of things
I had a scar under my left eye
we went skating

Little good
The sun will be doing
To my face

5. Little star

Little star
So you had to go
You must have wanted him to know
You must have wanted the world to know

Poor little thing
And now they know

Little star I had to close my eyes
There was a fire at the warehouse
They're always waiting for a thing like this
Came travelin' from
for you
little star

Little star
So you had to go
You must have wanted him to know
You must have wanted the world to know

Poor little thing
And now they know
for you, little star
