Falling 03:31
Looking through foggy memories It’s hard to see the wood from the trees But everybody has certain needs And sometimes you’ve got to do as you please But you used to come along you used to come along Cause divided we are weak and together we are strong You used to come along, used to come along Times could be tough but life was fun yeah And in my dreams I’m falling And by the fireside your snoring The kids are all tucked up in bed And Mum and Dad are off their heads But It doesn’t have to be how it all ends We used to travel wide, used to travel far Down by the sea, up upon the Moor We used to find our way by the moon and the stars So how come you don’t come any more You used to come along, used to come along For the singing of the songs, banging of the drum You used to come along, used to come along Cause divided we are weak but together we are strong yeah And in my dreams I’m falling And by the fireside your snoring The kids are all tucked up in bed And Mum and Dad are off their heads But It doesn’t have to be how it all ends Used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along You used to come along, used to come along For the singing of the song, banging of a drum And in my dreams I’m falling And by the fireside your snoring The kids are all tucked up in bed And Mum and Dad are off their heads But It doesn’t have to be how it all ends

Captain 04:20
See them come See them go All the time their waiting Standing in the wings Looking on anticipating It's the money that they want All the misfits and the wasters Here they come again and again The pound note chasers So now that it's all over What did you make of it Was it worth all the pain and suffering And wallowing in shit 'cause bringing home the bacon 'til your body's tied and broken You can expect no sympathy So just get on with it But I'm the captain of an army Of misfits and wasters A foreign legion of rejects And pound note chasers Yes I'm the captain of an army Of misfits and wasters A foreign legion of rejects And pound note chasers

Twenty Years 04:53
20 Years It’s been twenty years now since I wrote this song But how many years now since you’ve been gone Now I walk these hills in the same footsteps Trying to work out now where I belong I’ve got the battle scars of life and death weighing me down But I must keep on being strong But when I was a child I enjoyed myself I never had to worry about my personal wealth oh no But now I’m older and I can see what a stupid boy I used to be It doesn’t bother me Oh please believe me If you still need me He’s a southern boy from a western town He’s got a bird’s eye view of the world around Years ago I thought he’d drowned He was lost but now he’s been re-found He never used to do what he ought to But he’s left all that sort of thing to his daughter But when I was a child I enjoyed myself I never had to worry about my mental health oh no And now I’m older and I can see what a stupid boy I used to be It doesn’t bother me Oh please believe me If you still need me I’m lying on my back and I’m all alone Staring up at this old sandstone I can see the moves I can see the holds Hope I get up now before I get too old I see the things I’ve done I see the things to come I see the rain the wind and the current bun But when I was a child I enjoyed myself I never had to worry about my personal wealth oh no And now I’m older and I can see what a stupid boy I used to be It doesn’t bother me Oh please believe me If you still need me

Cool Current 03:51
There’s a cool cool current in the ocean Pull pull pulling you to me And it’s high high time that I was saying Pull me close and set me free Because your current it’s so strong It keeps pulling me along over to you Because you current it’s so strong It keeps pulling me along over to you Over to you Over to you Over to you So won’t you save me from the deep blue yonder Haul me in and let me breath Cause I’ve been drifting away over the horizon With only fish for company But your current it’s so strong It keeps pulling me along over to you Yes your current it’s so strong It keeps pulling me along over to you Over to you Over to you Over to you There’s a cool cool current in the ocean Pull pull pulling you to me Pull pull pulling you to me Pull pull pulling you to me

Act Your Age 03:57
Why don’t you just act your age And get your hands out of my hair You’ve been acting kind of strange And you have not been playing fair Because you’re the only one I’ve cried for And you’re the only one I’ve lied for But you’re gonna break me When you take my soul and make me bleed You’re wanna make my life a misery You’ve got a cold desire that burns with ease You think the world is yours to do with as you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees Your attitude is most sincere How do you keep such a straight face When you’ve been lying through your teeth You must think I don’t see the change Because you’re the only one I’ve cried for And you’re the only one I’ve lied for But you’re gonna break me When you take my soul and make me bleed You’re wanna make my life a misery You’ve got a cold desire that burns with ease You think the world is yours to do with as you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees Because you’re the only one I’ve cried for And you’re the only one I’ve lied for But you’re gonna break me When you take my soul and make me bleed You’re wanna make my life a misery You’ve got a cold desire that burns with ease You think the world is yours to do with as you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees Well I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees Yeah I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees Yeah I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging I’m begging you please Oh you’ve got me on my knees

Sometimes when you’re older And the weight lifts from your shoulder Do you think about the past and what you did when you were young Was it always sunshine Did the laughter last a lifetime Did the nights go on forever when you fell into her arms Looking back on good days Better times better sun rays Did the summers last forever was there springtime in your step Or is it just the good bits that you re-run like the repeats Of your favourite TV programs or the shuffle on your Pod I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice the time I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice the time So how can you be older When you don’t feel any older And the only signs of ageing are the laughter lines you pride Well you’re just like your father And your father’s dad before him That’s the way it always will be and there’s nothing wrong with that Forever seems a long time Will there ever be a wrong time Maybe this is not the song I’m trying hard to never write And when you close your eyes now Do you get a full reprise now Is it such a big surprise to fall into this reverie I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice the time I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice the time Flicking through the pages of my memories I see the times gone by with so much clarity I know that nothing lasts forever but these feelings I remember With a different kind of tenderness that’s visceral and effortless I never knew that things would change forever I always thought that we were so much better We never talked about the future or about the weather We only sang the songs we loved the ones we wrote together So where were you when things started to change me Where was all the brotherhood the bonded us so tightly Was this long ago or was this only yesterday Am I in a dream or is this my reality You never told us so we never noticed Looking back I see the many things you tried to show us As I grew up I tried to keep myself focused Dead at 28 you ain’t never getting older I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice I didn’t seem to notice the time I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice (the time) I didn’t seem to notice the time You know they never told us So I never noticed the time The time The time Come on stand up and show us Because I never noticed the time The time The time

Time 04:02
There’s no escaping from this You say I say what can the matter be With words like these it’s hard to find clarity It’s oh so simple just like insanity So why do we get so bogged down with gravity But Time Will take you up and lift you high The words alone can make you cry They’ll break your heart or you may die There’s no escaping from this Time The centre-piece to every life The way we live the way we die We get along yeah we get by There’s no escaping from this Old Wave New Wave Rock ‘n’ Roll vanity The tunes they don’t rave get lost to humanity So why wait why pay for solidarity And they say I crave this popularity But Time Will take you up and lift you high The words alone can make you cry They’ll break your heart or you may die There’s no escaping from this Time The centre-piece to every life The way we live the way we die We get along yeah we get by There’s no escaping from this Time Will take you up and lift you high The words alone can make you cry They’ll break your heart or you may die There’s no escaping from this Time The centre-piece to every life The way we live the way we die We get along yeah we get by There’s no escaping from this Time Will take you up and lift you high The words alone can make you cry They’ll break your heart or you may die There’s no escaping from this Time The centre-piece to every life The way we live the way we die We get along yeah we get by There’s no escaping from this

Stevo 04:13
Take me back to Stevo Now that the spring has come The trees are all full grown now And they camouflage the scum You know that I’ve always loved you And you know that I always will Since we met in that concrete bunker At the bottom of Six Hills So won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods So won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods You’re dirty and run down now You never were much good But I can see your beauty That’s so rarely understood You know we should be together And forget all former ills Because you know that I’ve always loved you And you know that I always will So won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods Oh won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods I know that winters coming I can feel it in my bones While the ghosts of Horse and Andy Still aimlessly they roam You know that I’ve always loved you For better or for worse Loving you forever Shall be my only curse So won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods So won’t you take me back Take me back Won’t you take me back for good Because my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods Oh my mind is in the hills But my body’s in the woods
