Found My Angel

Found my Angel,
In a dust cloud,
By the side of the road,
Leading to nowhere,
Looking for no one,
From the deep heat to the cold

You know I'll find you there,
Know I'll find you everywhere,
You know that I'll find you everywhere

You lost your name,
You lost money,
When the cold winds brought you down,
Far from blue skies,
Far from Angels,
And the ghost that haunts this town

You know I'll find you there,
Know I'll find you everywhere,
You know that I'll find you everywhere

Between cool sheets,
And over rainbows,
And underneath the skin,
I feel spirit,
I fear danger,
From all that I could let in

You know I'll find you there,
Know I'll find you everywhere,
You know that I'll find you everywhere,

I found my Angel,
In a dust cloud,
By the side of the road....



Natural Rhythm

This time, this time,
When I find love I'll make it mine,
I'm going to search the world,
Going to find a cure,
For this one love so pure....

Is there fire in your heart?
And do you feel it as it burns?
I'm burning up,
I'm burning up now,
I said I'm burning up,
Ohhh...

Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Feels like Natural Rhythm,
Do you feel it?
Oh, can you feel it,
Feeling Natural Rhythm

Some day, somewhere,
When I reach you through my prayers,
And when I find out just where you are,
You know I'll be there,
No place too far.....

And is there fire in your heart?
And do you feel it as it burns?
I'm burning up,
I'm burning up now,
I said I'm burning up,
Ohhh...

Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Feels like Natural Rhythm,
Do you feel it?
Oh, can you feel it,
Feeling Natural Rhythm

And is there fire in your heart?
And do you feel it as it burns?
I'm burning up,
I'm burning up now,
I said I'm burning up,
Ohhh...


Distractions

Half a mile from freedom,
And the rain came pouring down,
You unpack your bags,
And make your way down to the shore,
You'll search for your peace and your solitude,
And a clean space to write it down,
And say that you don't need much,
But you've always wanted more

It's getting in your way,
And getting harder every day,
It's getting in your way,
Distractions

He sweeps the leaves on Monday,
And cleans the surface of the pool,
Staring at his own reflection,
Before he takes the kids to school,
And he's waking up to the memories,
He is restless in the night,
And hides the letters that you send him,
And he still won't feel right

And it's getting in your way,
Getting harder every day,
It's getting in your way,
Distractions

It's never easy to mend a broken heart,
It's never easy no matter what they say,
But you're going to make it through,
Anyway...

A crowd of many faces,
Are staked up in the hall,
Their golden eyes are staring,
As you hang them on your wall,
And these paintings all come from memories,
These portraits will never tell,
Why you collect so many lovers,
And why this empty heart won't fill

And it's getting in your way,
Getting harder every day,
It's getting in your way,
Distractions

It's getting in your way,
It gets so hard every day,
It's getting in your way,
Distractions

Half a mile from freedom....


Freedom In The City

I've never known a better time,
I've never been to a better place than this, o
h no,
The streets are filled with sunlight,
It's time to party,
It's the one you just can't miss,

There's a place there in my mind,
Where the sun will always shine....

Paint the colours that you like,
Spread the word around in Day-Glo bright,
Paint the colours that you like,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city

You wake me in the morning, up,
You keep me up 'till we come home late at night,
And whisper words so secret,
Then turn around with a kiss to seal it tighter,

'Cause you're always changing my mind,
And the world that I left behind....

Wear the colours that you like,
We'll go dancing 'till the morning bright,
Wear the colours that you like,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city

That's the colour that I like,
Makes me jump inside,
Makes me feel so right,
That's the colour that I like,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city,
Wow oh ah, Freedom in the city


All You

It's all you,
It's what you do,
And it's all true,
That I can't live a day,
Without you

I saw you,
You were out there meeting friends
And you looked so 'cool',
Trying to keep in good time,
Always crossing over that
Fine white line

Now, I don't want to lie,
Or hurt you,
Don't you know that's the last thing
That I want to do,
So why do you want to leave me here,
With this crazy mind
Alone?.....

You're keeping it safe,
And you're keeping it clear,
You say there is no
Room in your heart,
For me "My Dear"

It's all you,
It's what you do,
And it's all true,
That I can't live a day,
Without you,
Now....


Golden


We stand alone from the moment we're born,
With bent fingers we grasp and we cling,
And pass each day watching each moment slip away,
Saying, "it's all over", before we begin,
It's all over before we begin

We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
Shading our light from within,
We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
We're here 'cause we're Golden

Somebody dies,
Nobody cries,
As we keep marching more lives,
Straight to the grave,
Nations will rise on a foundation of lies,
As we count up the graves while you win,
We're just counting up the graves,
While you win

We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
Shading our light from within,
We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
We're here 'cause we're Golden

This world still turns,
While we slash and we burn,
Our great forests,
Down to the ground,
Hungry bellies ache,
While we give and we take,
As we're watching it all fall all around,
Watching it all,
Fall around

We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
Shading our light from within,
We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
We're here 'cause we're Gold...
We close our eyes from the moment we rise,
We're just fading before we begin,
But when the timing is right,
We'll be shining so brightly,
We're here 'cause we're Gold..
Here 'cause we're Gold..
Here 'cause we're Gold....


Here To Stay

A boy was sitting,
Under the shade of a tree,
Watching shaking branches,
And the sky between,
He never moved an inch, you know,
He never moved at all,
'cause he's too busy thinking about a girl,
He knew...

A girl was lying,
In the arms of her dream,
She seemed safe and secure,
But the bars could be seen,
So she took of her eye shades,
Slipped on a cassette,
Watching the smoke drift around her,
From a rolled up cigarette...

Red sun burnt shoulders,
Electric guitars,
A dream of this 'special guy'
Just arrived in from Mars,
This passion takes over,
From day to day,
Desire and the passion,
Desire and the passion,
Are Here to Stay

Sun golden hair,
Heat haze illusions,
Kick off this sadness,
And this endless confusion,
Clouds pass over slowly,
From day to day,
Some hang around,
Some hang around,
And some will stay,
Some fade away,
Some will stay,
Some will stay...


To The Night

Sitting looking out on the night,
From a window,
In my room,
I see no stars,
The sky's too dark to shine,
And I ask myself,
Why do I love you?

To the night,
I'll send my love,
In the night,
I'll send my love,
To you

Moons pass overhead,
I haven't felt your love,
My time gets held,
In this silence

To the night,
I'll send my love,
In the night,
I'll send my love,
To you

When the day gets long,
Waiting for that telephone call,
And the night gets so cold,
Needing someone to hold,
Someone to hold....

The city sleeps,
Papers dance with the wind,
Embracing through empty streets,
And broken glass glitters,
Under street light,
and the moon light of love,
It shines down on me

To the night,
I'll send my love,
In the night,
I'll send my love

To the night,
I'll send my love,
In the night,
I'll send my love,
To you


I Remember You Do

I wrote her a letter,
The words followed in line,
I told her that I missed her,
But I told her I was doing fine,
I'd be on the road,
If I could make the money,
Or the time

I remember in winter,
By the fire,
She kept me warm,
I remember her company,
And the wind that night,
Blew up into a storm...

What do you do now?
Where do you go when the clouds hang low?
Do you hold onto his hand,
Run in the rain?
I remember you do,
I remember you do,
Now I'm thinking of you...

I remember in winter,
By the fire,
She kept me warm,
I remember her company,
And the wind that night,
Blew up into a storm...

I wrote her a letter,
The words followed in line,
I told her that I missed her,
But I told her I was doing fine,
I'd be on the road,
If I could make the money,
Or the time....


Don't Wake Me Up

Pull down the white sails,
We'll drift o'er the sea,
Don't wake me up,
If I dream,
You paint the sky in colours,
To brighten this dark night,
Don't wake me up,
If I dream

And you make the day,
You shine the light,
We'll share our dream,
To make it right

We'll be cool,
From the heat of summer,
Where the forest shades the light,
Don't wake me up,
If I dream,
Lying in the green ferns,
We kiss so softly,
Holding tight,
Don't wake me up,
If I dream

And you make the day,
You shine the light,
We'll share our dream,
To make it right

And you make the day,
You shine the light,
We'll share our dream,
To make it right
