WILD WOOD

DAMSEL FLY

WILD WOOD - PAUL WELLER

High tide, mid afternoon
People fly by in the traffics boom
Knowing, just where you're blowing
Getting to where you should be going

Don't let them get you down
Making you feel guilty about
Golden rain, will bring you riches
All the good things, you deserve now

Climbing forever trying
Find your way out, of the wildwild wood
Now there's no justice
There's only yourself, that you can trust in

And I say, "High tide, mid afternoon"
Oh, people fly by, in the traffics boom
Oh, knowing, just where you're blowing
Getting to where you should be going

Day by day your world fades away
Waiting to feel, all the dreams that say
Golden rain will bring you riches
All the good things, you deserve now

And I say, "Climbing forever trying"
You're gonna find your way out
Of the wild wild wood
Say that, you're gonna find your way out
Of the wild wild wood, of the wild wild wood

SEA SPRAY

TALES FROM THE RIVERBANK


SEA SPRAY - PAUL WELLER

Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray
Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray

Like the million stars before you
You shine through the strictest curfew
And listening to the rules of no one
Just want to lay it over
Can you never see what I can see?

Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray
Carry me home, carry me home
You old salt spray
Carry me home
You old sea spray

Sweep me up and take me with you
To see the things that stand before you
Show me all this world has for me
I want all the light can show me
I can only be what God can see

Come to carry me home
Come to carry me home
Want you to come to carry me home

Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray
Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray

Carry me home, carry me home
You old salt spray
Carry me home, carry me home
You old sea spray


TALES FROM THE RIVERBANK - THE JAM

Bring you a tale from the pastel fields
Where we ran when we were young
This is a tale from the water meadows
Trying to spread some hope into your heart
Its mixed with happiness, its mixed with tears
Both life and death are carried in this stream
That open space you could run for miles
Now you dont get so many to the pound
True its a dream mixed with nostalgia
But its a dream that Ill always hang on to
That I always run to
Wont you join me by the riverbank
Paradise found down by the still waters
Joined in the race to the rainbows end
No fears, no worries just a golden country
Woke at sunrise, went home at sunset
Now life is so critical
Life is too cynical
We lose our innocence
We lose our very soul
True its a dream mixed with nostalgia
But its a dream that Ill always hang on to
That I always run to
True its a dream mixed with nostalgia
But its a dream that Ill always hang on to
That I always run to
Wont you join me by the riverbank
Come on and join me by the riverbank

BEACH BOLT

HEAVENS ABOVE

HEAVENS ABOVE - THE STYLE COUNCIL

Heaven's above what have we done
Oh, we've killed off the thing we had so little of
True, love has no truth without a price
But the cost of loving has been blown sky high

Spend on the hope they call The Peacemaker
And pray to their God the Heavy Rainmaker
Pagans of wealth they dance so freely
As they give away the life that comes so cheaply

Don't you see
There's a better way for us to be
And in the back of your mind
You know it's just a matter of time

Time here today is life tomorrow
Oh, but life means less now the time is borrowed
Paid for in blood, the donors seem keen
As they realize too late they've been so cheated

Surely by now we've paid the price
What is there left to sacrifice
You take the power, you take the pay
You steal the will and have the say

I'm sure by now there's not much left
One hand on heart, one on a breast
You steal the milk, you milk the land
But your time is up, your time is sand
