Lyrics

Lost in Love

Be strong, have fun, sing happy songs
Be strong, have fun, sing happy songs

I'm lost in space, I'm lost in time
I'm lost in love, lost in love
I mow the lawn because I must
I'm lost in love, I'm lost in lust

I'd do anything just for you
I'll do anything I have to
I'm beholding to your every wish
I'm beholding, lost in love

I cook the meals and feed the kids
I take the risks, I'm lost in love
I go to work for days on end
I'm lost in love, I'm lost in lust

I'd do anything just for you
I'll do anything I have to
I'm beholding to your every wish
I'm beholding, lost in love

Lost in love, lost in love
I'm lost in love
Lost in love, lost in love
I'm lost in love

Take my hand, hold it tight
Hold me in your arms tonight

Lost in love, I'm lost in love
I'm lost in love
Lost in love, lost in love
I'm lost in love

Tiptoe Through the Minefield

Tiptoe through the minefield
Careful where you put that down
When I get my feet back under the table
Then maybe I’ll come round

And when I make my entrance
It won’t be with a bang
Just a little flourish
Some gestures with my hands

I guess that you’ve been wondering
And I’ve been wondering too
I don’t know what to make of it
I wonder if you do

And when they draw the curtains
And leave me all exposed
Will there still be an audience
Will there still be a show

And when I make my entrance
It won’t be with a bang
Just a little flourish
Some gestures with my hands
And when they draw the curtains
And leave me all exposed
Will there still be an audience
Will there still be a show

I Wish I Took My Own Advice

hawd yer wheesht
and stop tae think
and try and look
before ye leap
dont let yer belly rumble
when you're about tae speak

i wish i took my own advice
i wish i took my own advice

sometimes you go the easy road
coz it's the easy way to go
but when yer stuck at the crossroad
for what seems like forever
just toss a coin and go

coz you can always turn back
if you chose the wrong way
put it down to experience
something learned
is something gained

(lead guitar)

i wish i took my own advice
i wish i took my own advice

sometimes you go the easy road
coz it's the easy way to go
but when yer stuck at the crossroad
for what seems like forever
just toss a coin and go

hawd yer wheesht
and stop tae think
and try and look
before ye leap
jist take a step back
and get a better view
get things in perspective
then do
what you gotta do

i wish i took my own advice
i wish i took my own advice

sometimes i fly off the handle
and end up in shit deep

i wish i took my own advice
etc

The Catalyst

Lost and lonely
So far from the madding crowd
He’s disconnected
His signal blocked out by a thunder cloud
Darkness falling
The catalyst
Slipping deeper into his thoughts
The morning light
Seems a lifetime away
But he can’t see any further than the night ahead

Cast adrift
With no hope in hell of ever finding land
Lost at sea
He’s never felt so insignificant
Darkness falling
The catalyst
Slipping deeper into his thoughts
The morning light
Seems a lifetime away
But he can’t see any further than the night ahead

Wrong Turning

I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I am
I’m playing follow the leader
And he doesn’t know either
I lost him at the last corner
I took the wrong turning
And now I’m flying solo
I took the wrong turning
And now I’m flying solo
On my own

I’m sure we’ve been here before
I think I’m going in circles
I ditched the back seat driver
And now I’m none the wiser
I took the wrong turning
And now I’m flying solo
I took the wrong turning
And now I’m flying solo
Where do I go
Does anyone know
You all give me different directions
Is it any wonder
That I can’t find my way
find my way
find my way
find my way
to where I’m going
to where I’m going
where am I going
where am I going
I took the wrong turning
And now I’m flying solo

What Goes Around

No i'm not pleased to see ya
yes that is a gun in my pocket
so quit your beseeching
you ain't getting no sympathy from me

what goes around, comes back in bundles
what goes around, will slap you in the ass
what goes around, will get you on the way back down
what goes around, poetic justice

you had it coming
coming to you for a long long time
it's time for payback
it's high time you were coming down

what goes around, comes back to bite ya
what goes around, will kick you when you're down
what goes around, comes right back around
what goes around, poetic justice

what goes around
what goes around
what goes around
comes back around

what goes around, comes back to haunt you
what goes around, shows no forgiveness
what goes around, will get you baby
what goes around, poetic justice

'pon My Reflection

'pon my reflection
Through bleary eyes
My head is thumpin'
I need a hair of the dog that bit me

It sucked my mind and left it blank
I can't recall, I can't remember
I hope I didn't do anything stupid
Like I did the last time

'pon my reflection
I look like shit
I can't find no hair of the dog to cure me

Oh god, it's slowly comin' back
I can't believe I did that crack
I was so stupid, just like the last time
Just like the last time

I'm finished with the bottle
I'm finished with the dog
I'm gettin' on the wagon
It sucked my mind and left it blank
Sucked my mind and left it blank

'pon my reflection
'pon my reflection
'pon my reflection
'pon my reflection
'pon my reflection

'pon my reflection

Metaphor

The clouds have lifted, or is that just a metaphor?
Things are lookin' up from my perspective
Suppose it all depends on where you're standing
How the land lays for you and yours

A new day's dawning, we've seen it all before
But the sun is rising and it fills me with hope
Suppose it all depends on where you're standing
How the land lays for you and yours

Suppose it all depends on how you're feeling
Whether you can even be bothered to face the day
Suppose it all depends on where you're standing
How the land lays for you and yours

The clouds have lifted, or is that just a metaphor?

Way of the World

Things go way too fast
Or am I just too slow?
People runnin' past me
I wonder where they go

That's just the way of the world
It wasn't like this yesterday
That's just the way of the world
Things keep changin' every day

That's the way of the world (Just accept it)
That's the way of the world (Don't you cry)
That's the way of the world (You've had your turn)
That's the way of the world (Now it's mine)

Man, my bones are achin'
I can't climb the stairs
My mind is willin'
My body just don't care

That's just the way of the world
It wasn't like this yesterday
That's just the way of the world
Things keep changin' every day

That's the way of the world (Just accept it)
That's the way of the world (Don't you cry)
That's the way of the world (You've had your turn)
That's the way of the world (Now it's mine)

Let's face it, you ain't gettin' any younger, baby
And neither am I
Only thing we know for sure is we're all gonna die

That's just the way of the world
Just the same as yesterday
That's just the way of the world
I see the same things every day

Sing it, James

That's the way of the world (Just accept it)
That's the way of the world (Don't you cry)
That's the way of the world (You've had your turn)
That's the way of the world (Now it's mine)
That's the way of the world
That's the way of the world

Don't Burst the Bubble

Don’t burst the bubble - our fantasy
Don’t burst the bubble - alternative reality
Don’t burst the bubble - daydream reveries
Don’t burst the bubble - in the sun beneath a tree
Don’t burst the bubble - being all that we can be

Don’t pick the scab
You’ll let things in
That you don’t want
To let in

Don’t burst the bubble - our fantasy
Don’t burst the bubble - alternative reality
Don’t burst the bubble - daydream reveries
Don’t burst the bubble - in the sun beneath a tree
Don’t burst the bubble - being all that we can be
Don’t burst the bubble - believing that we are free
Don’t burst the bubble - masters of our destiny
Don’t burst the bubble - feel the sand beneath our feet

Don’t pick the scab
You’ll let things in
That you don’t want
To let in

Don’t burst the bubble - our fantasy
Don’t burst the bubble - alternative reality
Don’t burst the bubble - daydream reveries
Don’t burst the bubble - in the sun beneath a tree

Just There

Just there
Not here
Just there

So close
So far
So near
So where you are

You take it as you find it
You see it as it is
You’re right there when we need you
Just there

It’s so
Not high
Not low

So loose
So tight
So sharp
So right

You put the pieces altogether
You put them in their place
You put the pieces altogether
Just there

Just there
Not here
Just there

So close
So far
So near
So where you are

Just there
Just there
Just there
