Rainy Lorraine
Rainy Lorraine took my heart away
Rainy Lorraine she took my heart away
Left me broke and busted
Put me back out on the street
Rainy Lorraine took all I had to give
Rainy Lorraine took all I had to give
Left me high and dry
Placed me back up on the shelf
I'd do it all again
It's better to have loved and lost
Than never loved at all........
Never loved at all
Rainy Lorraine
Rainy Lorraine
Left me high and dry
Placed me back up on the shelf
I'd do it all again
It's better to have loved and lost
Than never loved at all........
Never loved at all
Rainy Lorraine
Heart of Stone
Hey I have a heart of stone
Guess that's why Im on my own
I moved far away from home
Don't even know where I am going
Long long time ago
This ole heart of mine got broke
Now I have a heart stone
The only thing that keeps me going
I feel safer on my own
Just me and this ole heart of stone
Long ago I met a girl
Ran my fingers through her curls
But I got burned up by the flame
And I ain't going there again
Hey I have a heart of stone
Guess that's why Im on my own
I moved far away from home
Don't even know where I am going
I ain't going near those flames again
Saw the things it did to better men
I dont have a need for love
Now I go a heart of stone
Hey I have a heart of stone
Wounded Souls
Words and music by Tim Green
Even if my light went outAnd we came back in a different life
I'd love you with the same desire
And make the same mistakes twice
'cause you and I are wounded souls
Standing on the edge of time
With all the deep connections we need
To burn so bright
The more you give
The more you hurt
'cause that's the way
That's the way love works
We're on a high wire
Up above the dreaming spires
No safety net but these two arms
And no regrets forever
Everybody suffers some
We lose a little life each day
But love is all that matters
Forget the silly games
The more you give
The more you hurt
But not to love
Not to love is worse
We're on a high wire
Up above the dreaming spires
No safety net but these two arms
And no regrets forever
'cause you and I are wounded souls
Standing on the edge of time
With all the deep connections we need
To burn so bright
Filthy Animal
She stirs something deep inside of me
Desire infused with anarchy
She looks like she's so squeaky clean
But likes it when I treat her mean
Coz I am her filthy animal
etc etc
She's the apple of her daddy's eye
Thinks she's little miss American pie
Well he don't know so can't be hurt
I treat her like a piece of dirt
Coz I am her filthy animal
etc etc
It's Jemima's Kite
I tied Jemima's kite
To my bicycle
We're gonna send it
Soaring through the clouds
I checked the tyres
I oiled the chain
Removed the dynamo
Gonna push it up to the brow of the hill
Okay let's go
Start the countdown now
O o o it's jemima's kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it's jemima's kite
See it fly
Way on high
I've got my gloves
I've got my scarf
I've got my lucky rabbit's foot
Better put my helmet on just in case
No turning back
Although I'm scared
I'm really going through with it
Ready boys? It's chocs away
Okay let's go
Start the countdown now
O o o it's jemima's kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it's jemima's kite
See it fly
Way on high
O o o it's jemima's kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it's jemima's kite
See it fly
Way on high
O o o it's jemima's kite
See it fly
Way on high
Stone
We raced to the top
To see who'd be first
To look down from on high
Like children we ran
We ran to the top
To reach for the sky
And then tumbled on down
To the other side
And stood by the shore
And stood by the shore
We stood by the shore
We looked on the beach
For some flat-sided stones
To skite and to skip o'er the waves
Till our arms were all sore
Till we hadn't the strength
To throw anymore
To throw anymore
Then I picked up this stone
That stood out from the rest
And I slipped it in my pocket
So I wouldn't forget
So I wouldn't forget
This stone will hold my memories
I'm taking this stone home with me
I'm taking this stone home with me
We raced to the top
To see who'd be first
To look down from on high
Like children we ran
We ran to the top
To reach for the sky
This stone will hold my memories
This stone will hold my memories
I'm taking this stone home with me
