Riding On The Tide Of Love (2021)












Riding On The Tide Of Love lyrics - Deacon Blue

I was born in the deepest and darkest of months
And the fields were all frozen and raw
I was raised in the dawn of the hydrogen bomb
Ready for shock and awe
I was wakened by fear in a terrible year
When the ground opened up its jaws
And the sight of the dead coming out of the earth
Scared me so much I ran off

Hiding, taking shelter
From the wind, from the wind
I was waiting for the world
To begin

But I'm living and I'm breathing and I'm real
And I'm sliding (sliding) and I'm clinging (clinging) but you're here
I'm riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
Riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
I'm riding on the tide of love, of love, of love

One night I got caught by the cinema lights
As I tried to get home in the dark
There was a terrible boy bringing terror and noise
As the scream echoed over the park
And the thought of that thin blade of a man
Made every bone in my body shake
I was barely alive from my nine to five
I was needing to stay awake

Hoping that you
Hear my cry, hear my cry
I was longing for love
Inside

But I'm living and I'm breathing and I'm real
And I'm sliding (sliding) and I'm clinging (clinging) but you're here
And I'm riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
Riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
(But I'm living and I'm breathing and I'm real)
I'm riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
(And I'm sliding and I'm clinging but you're here)
Riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
(But I'm living and I'm breathing and I'm real)
I'm riding on the tide of love, of love, of love
(And I'm sliding and I'm clinging but you're here)

Nothing's Changed lyrics - Deacon Blue

There nothing that you know
Nothing you'll be told
Nothing here you can hold on to

There's nothing in my face
For you to read for you to trace
Nothing to realise even if you want to

I've been here so many times before
So many times you won't believe
What is it you really want to learn?
You know I can only tell you if you trust me

Nothing's changed
There's nothing to be scared of, no reason to fear
Cause nothing's changed
We're not the people that we were, but my love for you remains...
Nothing's changed

Nothing I'm holding back
No love, no cash no facts
Nothing to make you mad or stoned or crazy

There's nothing in my pockets
No flowers, hearts or lockets
There's no secrets I been holding on to lately

I was once a jealous man
Too much in love with love to be true
But I let go of everything
My heart can tell you true

That nothing's changed
There's nothing to be scared of, no reason to fear
Cause nothing's changed
We're not the people that we were, but my love for you remains...
Nothing's changed
There's nothing to be scared of, no reason to fear
Nothing's changed

Send A Note Out lyrics - Deacon Blue

Somebody's angry
Somebody's hurting
They didn't look you in the eye
So now you're worried

There's a corner
Where you used to meet your friends
But it's gone now
These days it feels like nothing seems to mend

Always, always
Always, always
Send a note out
Tell them how you feel
Send a note out
You know that something's needed
Send a note out

I'm going to write it down
Don't need no Valentine's Day
I'm going to tell you I feel now
Gonna say what I'm gonna say

Always, always
Always, always
Send a note out
Tell them how you feel
Send a note out
You know that something's needed
Send a note out

Some houses and special things
Can slip away with a cold hard wind
A cold hard wind

I don't love you any more
That's the worst thing I could ever say
So if it's something that I'm thinking
If it's something that I'm feeling...

Always, always
Always, always
Send a note out
Tell them how you feel
Send a note out
You know that something's needed
Send a note out

She Loved The Snow lyrics - Deacon Blue

Long slow days
It was barely dark
Even as we slept
You told me
Wild winter follows
To pay back this haloed heaven

Picking through the bones of the day
So pleased her world could easily be changed
She loved the snow
She loved the snow

Ground lay hard
Under paths
We had walked
One spring day
Our earth transformed
Under a late, spring fall

Picking through the bones of the day
So pleased her world could easily be changed
She loved the snow
She loved the snow

Not Gonna Be That Girl lyrics - Deacon Blue

I saw her standing beneath the street lamp
Gold beams falling down on her hair
Made it look like
She was wearing a halo
She was surely heaven sent
But I was smart enough to know
Oh no, that's not what it meant
She's not gonna be that girl

She's gonna be what she is
And what she is I want to know
Like the back of my hand
Not at all like I planned
Nothing like what this man
Thought he wanted
But now I want it

I saw her standing in our kitchen light
The evening shadows falling on her face
Made her look like
Some kind of princess in a poor man's house
When she smiles I think of diamonds
And surely she wants out
But she's not gonna be that girl

She's gonna be what she is
And what she is I want to know
Like the back of my hand
Not at all like I planned
Nothing like what this man
Thought he wanted

She's gonna stand where she stands
Where she stands is gonna change
Changing me in every way
Filling up my nights and days
She's the reason that I say
Thank God I was wrong
In what I thought I wanted
She's not gonna be that girl

She's not gonna be what you dreamed up
Or the one that you've had cleaned up
But now you're teamed up

She's not gonna be everything you wanted
So be careful how you flaunt it
She's what you didn't know till you got it

She's not gonna be the one who'll change you
Make up new arrangements
Don't you see that there's no danger

She's not gonna be yours to hold forever
No, not unless you let her
Go with her to make things better

Look Up lyrics - Deacon Blue

If you can't win you should know
That losing's not the worse thing
Say you don't know where to begin
Then this one time try to start again
After the tears and the rage and the shouting
You let him in again wondering why it is you doubted him

Then on a Monday morning when you're driving to work
And dawn breaks over you and it's making it worse
You'll know that it's over
You'll know that it's over

If you can't say what it is
That's hurting, that's the worst thing
If you're carrying the blame that should be his
Lay it down and walk away from him
After the years and the cages that surrounded you
You can be free again from everything that bound you

Then on a Monday morning when you're driving to work
And dawn breaks over you and it's making it worse
You'll know that it's over
You'll know that it's over

Look up to see the colours of the spring
Look up and see all that you've been missing
Look up and take in everything
Look up, lift your head, lift your head up

Cause next Monday morning when you're driving to work
You'll be glad it was you who discovered it first
Cause you'll know that it's over
You know that it's over
You know that it's over
You know that it's over

Time lyrics - Deacon Blue

Time
If I did everything wrong
Time
You did everything right
Time
So what are we gonna do
Time
With the rest of it?
Time
What do I need to know?
Time
Do I need to trust some more?
Time
Or is there just enough road
For us both

There's only words to say we ever were
I hear your voice inside me saying (singing)
Telling me there's still time
Is there still time

Time
The noise has died down
Time
And everyone's gone
Time
You're standing beside me
Time
So here we are then, facing
Time
And all that I know
Time
And all that I love
Time
Is here in this moment of (time)

There's only words to say we ever were
I hear your voice inside me saying (saying)
Telling me there's still time
Is there still time

Walking ways and ways to go
Understanding what we know
Time to look, time to hide
And time

There's only words to say we ever were
I hear your voice inside me saying (saying)
Telling me there's still time
Is there still time

It's Still Early lyrics - Deacon Blue

The rain had made
A map round where
We'd lay a while
That day late summer

No one saw us come
No one caught us
I guess we disappeared from view

Gone, to everybody else
And all the people said
They were much too young
Gone, but we know what we had
And no one understood that
It's still early

The sun has gone
Behind the trees
Too late for home
We'll stay till morning

If they saw us come
They'd imagine
How we'd disappear so soon

Gone, to everybody else
And all the people said
They were much too young
Gone, but we know what we had
And no one understood that
It's still early

City Of Love (2020)












City Of Love lyrics - Deacon Blue

Lost the will for keeping on
Just as the winter is dragging
What can I do with all of this?
Where can I put what I'm carrying?

All that remains is the city of love
All that remains is the city of love

The city of love

If you've got the will you've got to keep on going
No matter what the world is saying
No one can stop you, not until
You reach the end and lay down your burden

All that remains is the city of love
All that remains is the city of love

The city of love

Hold on
He said
She knows
It made sense
Don't go
Too far
You can't know
What matters

All that remains is the city of love
All that remains is the city of love
All that remains is the city of love

City of love
City of love

Hit Me Where It Hurts lyrics - Deacon Blue

You hit me where it hurts
You were what I least expected
Everything at once
How could I be ready?

You hit me where it hurts
Just when I was falling
Who'd have ever thought
One man had so much blood in him

I was gone
I was on my way
I was on my way out
Any place
Anywhere from here
I was on the run from love

Till you
Hit me where it hurts
Your kiss came crashing through
This night has made it worse
And now all my plans lie ruined

I was gone
I was on my way
I was on my way out
Any place
Anywhere from here
I was on the run from love

Till you
Hit me where it hurts
Hit me where it hurts

I was gone
I was on my way
I was on my way out
Any place
Anywhere from here
I was on the run from love

I was gone
I was on my way
I was on my way out
Any place
Anywhere from here
I was on the run from love

Till you
Hit me where it hurts
Hit me where it hurts
Hit me where it hurts

Weight Of The World lyrics - Deacon Blue

He'd been trying to tell a story called weight of the world
But he couldn't find out how the whole thing works
All he needed was a reason
Watched and waited but no reason came

Kept on working on the weight of the world
It started getting better until it got worse
So he said goodbye
I'm away now thanks and goodnight

Tonight, tonight we'll go diving
Tonight, tonight while we're alive
We'll try
I never figured on the weight of the world
Sometimes, sometimes I wanna go gliding
High enough not to care about sliding down
But never figured on the weight of the world

Started reading out the pages of the weight of the world
So he climbed and climbed to be sure he could be heard
When he opened up his heart
Words blew away on a wind so hard

Tonight, tonight we'll go diving
Tonight, tonight while we're alive
We'll try
I never figured on the weight of the world
Sometimes, sometimes I wanna go gliding
High enough not to care about sliding down
But never figured on the weight of the world

Tonight, tonight we'll go diving
Tonight, tonight while we're alive
We'll try
I never figured on the weight of the world
Sometimes, sometimes I wanna go gliding
High enough not to care about sliding down
But never figured on the weight of the world
But never figured on the weight of the world
But never figured on the weight of the world

Take Me lyrics - Deacon Blue

Of all the things left in this world
There's one thing I wish you'd heard from me
The cry from deep inside my heart
When you walked away

Standing all alone right now
Lost inside an empty house some nights
There's nothing here when love's locked out
And you're not around

Hey, hey, hey
What would you say
If I let you in
And I gave you just one day

If I told you what I could have done
And what I might have been
If I told you what my heart proclaimed
I dared to dream, dared to dream
If I told you about the constant doubt
And how I shut it down
If I told you everything just once
Will you take me now, take me now

Take me
To a place I've never been to
Take me
Down a road I wouldn't know
Take me
Unlock the doors and set me travelling
Take me
Take me with you if you go

When I let you walk away from me
I tried but I just couldn't see anything
What I had to do was easy
To make you believe

Hey, hey, hey
All I had to say
I'm the real thing
If you could only see

If I told you what I could have done
And what I might have been
If I told you what my heart proclaimed
I dared to dream, dared to dream
If I told you about the constant doubt
And how I shut it down
If I told you everything just once
Will you take me now, take me now

Take me
To a place I've never been to
Take me
Down a road I wouldn't know
Take me
Unlock the doors and set me travelling
Take me
Take me with you if you go

It's a long road back from here
It's a long road back

Take me
Take me
Take me
To a place I've never been to
Take me
Down a road I wouldn't know
Take me
Unlock the doors and set me travelling
Take me
Take me with you if you go

In Our Room lyrics - Deacon Blue

We spent the late night hours in our room
Waiting on a sunrise, turning up the volume
We talked, loved heard Van giving out in our room
We were so certain, we never doubted

We held all the world we knew
In our room, in our room
We found love to be true
In our room, in our room

Stains on the ceiling
Sleeping on a mattress
On the floor
There was a moon shining in our room

Kids playing outside
Singing and swinging
Shouting on the landing
There was no place to go but in our room

You lit the candles up in our room
Small gifts of light to lift the gloom
Woke up to the sun rise in our eyes
Love came alive, we'd so much time

There was nothing else to do
But be in our room, in our room
And everything we understood
Was in our room, in our room

Stains on the ceiling
Sleeping on a mattress
On the floor
There was a moon shining in our room

Kids playing outside
Singing and swinging
Shouting on the landing
There was no place to go but in our room

We spent the late night hours in our room
Waiting on a sunrise, turning up the volume

Intervals lyrics - Deacon Blue

Home, glorious light
Well it's Wednesday and I'm still waiting
You came into my heart
So early, so early
Walking through the dark
To where the light is, still burning

When you grow up to be a star
Don't leave home for anything less than you are

There's so little time
It's the spaces that I seek
Intervals of light
Where I can see you and you can see me
Will you walk back to this world
From wherever you might be

When you grow up to be a star
Don't leave home for anything less than you are
When you grow up to be a star
Don't leave home for anything less than you are

When you grow up to be a star
Don't leave home for anything less than you are

Keeping My Faith Alive lyrics - Deacon Blue

Everything is shaking
Don't know what to believe
I feel the ground shifting
Under my feet
There's an ill wind brewing
And it's scheduled to arrive
But I'm keeping my faith alive

I listen to my children
Look into their eyes
I listen to their stories
How they get wrong from right
While I listen to political junkies
And all that shuck and jive
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive

Hey now everything will go
But I will go with what I know
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive

People watching people struggling to survive
Sometimes I feel I'm running from the light
Everyone's gambling on a champion
Just to watch him take a dive
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive

Hey now everything will go
But I will go with what I know
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive

Don't know what to do right now
I just want to do right now

Hey now everything will go
I will go with what I know
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive
I'm keeping my faith alive

A Walk In The Woods lyrics - Deacon Blue

Took a walk to the morning
To the morning at last we came
I don't know how you hold on
Holding on's like holding rain

We took a walk in the woods
Just to find ourselves alone
We took a walk in the woods
To try to find our way home
Our way home

The night is done, now comes the morning
Time to let go, time to change
I don't know how you hold on for ever
How you hold on to everything

We took a walk in the woods
Just to find ourselves alone
We took a walk in the woods
To try to find our way home
Our way home

We took a walk in the woods
Just to find ourselves alone
We took a walk in the woods
To try to find our way home
Our way home
Our way home
Our way home

Come On In lyrics - Deacon Blue

Walk that street every morning
Driving past in the afternoon
Standing outside looking in
Maybe too soon

Looking for a low close light
For some real homecoming
Maybe we could be all right
If we could just begin again

Oh, I know about tears
Cause I've cried some, they keep trying to come back again
Oh, all the things I loved here
Well I left them and I couldn't keep track of them
Oh, is it asking too much
To hear the one thing I was hoping you might say
Come on in

Come to life around midnight
Stepping out in the wee wee hours
Every dawn every sunrise
How I want to make it ours

Looking for a call or any sign
I got it wrong so many times
Won't you please take me back again
I'll be gentle so please be kind

Oh, I know about tears
Cause I've cried some they keep trying to come back again
Oh, all the things I loved here
Well I left them and I couldn't keep track of them
Oh, I keep thinking of you
When I tried to keep these thoughts from coming through
Oh, is it asking too much
To hear the one thing I was hoping you might say
Come on in

Oh, I know about tears
Cause I've cried some they keep trying to come back again
Oh, all the things I loved here
Well I left them and I couldn't keep track of them
Oh, I keep thinking of you
When I tried to keep these thoughts from coming through
Oh, is it asking too much
To hear the one thing I was hoping you might say
Come on in
Come on in
Come on in
Come on in

Wonderful lyrics - Deacon Blue

Walking the floor trying to find something to say
Waking up nights waiting for morning to break
Rumours abound you might be glad to be free
I can't imagine how bad it must be in my company

There was a time when I was too scared to be near you
Times when I tried something to prove I don't need you
But every road that I crawled only led me to you
And every time I set you free you only walked backed again

Look at us now there's a world full of wonderful
Heaven is waiting so don't be afraid of what's
Possible now in this world full of wonderful
If heaven's not there then the world can be beautiful

Yeah isn't it good
Yeah isn't it good

Yeah isn't it good
Yeah isn't it good
Yeah isn't it good
Yeah isn't it good

On Love lyrics - Deacon Blue

In the early years he spent a lot of time with his grandparents
They lived one floor up in a tenement in the Hawkhill
In the mornings they'd go up to see his grandfather in a small hut at the graveyard
Where he kept watch while nothing moved
On some days they'd stop above the railway yard and sit and just gaze at the trains
They'd walk slowly looking at where the railings had been taken down
And he heard they'd needed to melt them down for iron during the wars
He wondered why they didn't just rip them off and use them as spears to throw at each other
Then he'd watch the old man as he shaved and got ready to go out

Do I need to talk everything out
Only two songs away from your house

Love, never had a reason before
So what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?

Just before the decade changed he took a long rail journey into England
It was early August and he went with his grandfather to join his family on holiday
The slow summer train wound its way south over the Tay and Forth valleys
As they got talking to a traveller about life in other parts
The traveller told them about playing football in Glasgow
And hurting his skin on the ashes and the red blase
As the carriage got warmer his head hurt and he stopped talking with his grandfather
He tried to cheer the boy up and after a while the boy felt bad about ignoring the old man

Do I need to talk everything out
I'm only two songs away from your house

Love, never had a reason before
So what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?

In the early days she was someone who lived nearby
One day she caught his eye from across the hall as an orchestra was playing
None of the audience or the musicians could distract him from keeping looking
And outside in the square he kept trying to find her
Years later he received a letter from her daughter
She'd moved with her family to Australia and now they'd their lost their mother
She remembered a conversation she'd had with her as she lay dying that brought him to mind
So she wrote telling him about how her life had gone since that day at the concert hall

I never got to talk everything out
But I'm only two songs away from your house

Love, never had a reason before
So what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?

Sometimes all memories seem to get lost.
It's like they're on fire and even trying to get back to them is pointless
It seems, now, looking back on it there were two kinds of people
Who you wanted to be and never were, and the good ones you ignored for too long then it was too late
One day an older boy came up to him and looked him up and down
Returning to his crowd they all laughed like crows as the older boy ridiculed the kid
He remembered that day the rest of his life
For all that time he kept on wanting to join the laughing crowd of crows

I never got to talk everything out
But I'm still two songs away from your house

Love, never had a reason before
So what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?

When he first fell in love he was at a distance
He'd follow her miles behind on the road but close enough to see how her head moved
He liked the fact she seemed so content just walking by herself every morning
In all those days he never once caught up with her
Later on he told her all this as they sat up and watched the sunrise over The Meadows
One day he found out he wasn't the only one who walked there with her
It hurt like hell when she left him on one of those slow journeys
And somehow her feet just carried on and her head moved that way he'd seen a million times before

I never got to talk everything out
But I'm still two songs away from your house

Love, never had a reason before
OK, so what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before

Love, never had a reason before
OK, so what d'you wanna know?
If it never had a reason before
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?
What you trying to make sense for?

All Of This Or Nothing At All lyrics - Deacon Blue

Walking hard walking slow taking up that time until you go
Climbing up that track deep into the dark
Everything we've ever said
All the days we've ever spent
So much joy we've missed from lack of innocence
Like the wild flowers of wintertime
All the leaves the wind has stolen
Colours that we long forgotten things we should of known

Yeah all of this or nothing at all
Oh all of this or nothing at all

Take them letters leave the pain
Let loose the losses take all the gains
That's not possible in our world
Sometimes I wish it could be so
Everything you've ever said
All the days we've ever spent
So much joy we missed through lack of innocence
Like the wild flowers of wintertime
All the leaves the wind has stolen
Colours that we've long forgotten things we should of known

Yeah all of this or nothing at all
Oh all of this or nothing at all

Everything we've ever said
All the days we've ever spent
So much joy we missed from lack of innocence
Like the wildflowers of wintertime
All the leaves the wind has stolen
Colours that we've long forgotten
Things we should of known

Yes all of this or nothing at all
Yes all of this or nothing at all

God Gives You Dreams lyrics - Deacon Blue

I found a train just need a ticket
Destination I need to pick it
I'd have a job if I committed
Or I did some work but I didn't

I know that feeling from a distance
Sunshine's there but there's something missing
Got some directions but I wasn't listening
My friends all said it's not my business

I got in trouble for gazing out the window
And staring out those far away scenes
I kept wondering what all this lying means
If there's something pulling and you just can't let go
No matter how hard it seems
Just remember god gave you dreams

Got no plan I've got no mission
I can take this life I'm living
I keep asking and I keep thinking
This worlds for wandering this worlds for living

I got in trouble for gazing out the window
And staring out those far away scenes
I kept wondering what all this lying means
If there's something pulling and you just can't let go
No matter how hard it seems
Just remember god gives you dreams

I got tired of waiting on tomorrow
To see what everybody else is seeing
No one seems to know which way the wind will be
If there's something pulling and you just can't let go
No matter how hard it seems
Just remember god gives you dreams

Gives you dreams
Gives you dreams
Gives you dreams
Gives you dreams

Haunted lyrics - Deacon Blue

I want you to know
That I love you still
I want you to know
That I'd miss you girl
I want you to know
Even though you're outside my world
But I can't let you go
Do you forget
How I remember
Everything that we did

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

In the dead of the night
I can't know where you are
I still have your scent
On my coat, in my car
Is that just the wind
Or your voice in the dark
And I still hear you go

Do you shiver
Do you know
It's not winter
Are you cold

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

You can't take me back in your arms anymore
I can't go back to your arms anymore
I want you

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

Haunted
You leave me haunted
Haunted
By your love

Haunted
Haunted
Haunted...

Just Come Home Now lyrics - Deacon Blue

I opened your letter imagining your life your place and the weather there
You see its pretty but you're missing something
Cause its summer there its creeping cold here
So I wrote you straight back and I put in it to you
If you're worried about anything please don't think on it

Just come home now don't worry about anything
Come home now bring yourself in
Just come home now don't worry about anything
Come home now bring yourself in

Don't worry about the journey the distance the words before you went
There's nothing left now it's Christmas and all the money's spent
Just come home now just come home

Your dad put up the tree and I've been out shopping on Queens street
We watched meet me in saint Louis and I thought of you
I hear your friends are meeting on Hogmanay outside the central station
One last drink then home to bring the bells in
If there's one thing I know it's how I miss you tonight
So do this one thing for me now and be on that flight

Just come home now don't worry about anything
Come home now bring yourself in
Just come home now don't worry about anything
Come home now bring yourself in

Don't worry about the journey the distance the words before you went
There's nothing left now it's Christmas and all the money's spent
Just come home now just come home
Just come home now just come home

There's no room for fear anymore
We can only do what we do best
You get me right through anything
I'd let the snow swept streets do the rest

Just come home now don't worry about anything
Come home now bring yourself in

Don't worry about the journey the distance the words before you went
There's nothing left now it's Christmas and all the money's spent
Just come home now just come home
Just come home now just come home

Just Fine lyrics - Deacon Blue

Staring from the pavement at some poor dog in the road
Wishing for his eyes to open
And a women's watching TV trying to recognise a face
Of a man she hoped she'd never see again

There's no other exit there's no better way
Your gonna do the hardest thing you've ever done
This man's lost his memory this women's lost her sons
They've both been waiting for a long time

Someday this'll pass and mostly be forgotten
You'll get along just fine
There's no getting round it there's no turning back
And call the righteous and the wretched and wronged

The Hindus and the Hutus the masters and the slaves
The hangman and the criminal the cowards and the brave
They'll get along just fine
They'll get along just fine
They'll get along just fine

More People More lyrics - Deacon Blue

Ohh ohhh ohhh ohhh
And people mean so much more
Ohhh and people Ohhh and people Ohhh and people Ohhh and people
People mean so much more

The sun the snow the mountain tops
The wind that crosses fields and stops
These buildings halfway to the sky
A flame that bursts alive then dies
The endless motions of the sea
The months that follow tirelessly and the moon

Ohhh and people ohhh and people ohhh and people ohhh and people
Yeah people mean so much more

No myths remains on painted walls
Unmapped places only unrecalled
The half-remembered childhood kiss
Some sweet forgotten melodies
I'll sigh as swallows dive and soar
For colours that exist no more and wait

Ohhh ohhhh ohhh ohhh
Ohhh and people Ohhh and people Ohhh and people Ohhh and people
And people mean so much more
And people mean so much more

Peace Will Com lyrics - Deacon Blue

Peace will come
Just as surely as the
Night is done
And as certain the
Arrival of the sun
All we know is that
Peace will come

Peace will come
Just in time to save
Everyone
If they're old or
If they're young
All we know is that
Peace will come
All we know is that
Peace will come

Peace will come
Like an injured dog that
Keeps on running
He's still limping but he's
Coming home
All we know is that
Peace will come
All we know is that
Peace will come

Sing it up
Sing it up again
Sing it up
Sing it up again

Sing it up
Sing it up again

Peace will come
Peace will come

Scent And Cigarettes lyrics - Deacon Blue

What did I do
What did I say
That you took everything I had to give
Then went away
Cos I've been alone
But not like this before
Oh no

All you left me with is scent and cigarettes
Now everything else I own means so much less

I'd phone I'd call I'd write
If I knew your address
Now all I have is your perfume and the memory of your sweet tenderness

Was as easy to slip away as to break my heart
Why did you smile and laugh and kiss
And pull our love apart

Was there nothing that you missed did you know I'd not get over this
All you left me with is scent and cigarettes
Now everything I own means so much less

I'd phone I'd call I'd write if I knew your address
Yes yes yes

But all I have is your perfume and the memory of your sweet tenderness
Scent and cigarettes
Scent and cigarettes
Scent and cigarettes

The One About Loneliness lyrics - Deacon Blue

About the ones who never call
About the call you never make
About the makes you always spoke of
No that's just a joke

About the tape you never sent
About the scent you never wore
About the war you never fought
And how I got caught

This is the one about loneliness
Can I take it home and play it back to all my friends?
And we'll listen and think
And hold our lovers and drinks in our hands

About the records they all played
About the plays they never watched
About the watches they all wore
How I never saw

About the breaking of the heart
About the heart that made the stars
About the stars they chased and chased
Where I still go

This is the one about loneliness
Can I take it home and play it back to all my friends?
And we'll listen and think
And hold our lovers and drinks in our hands

I love the one about loneliness
Can I take it home and play it back to all my friends?
And we'll listen and think
And hold our lovers and drinks
Don't you know what only time brings
Cause we're getting old

What's So Funny 'Bout Peace, Love And Understanding lyrics - Deacon Blue

(originally by Brinsley Schwarz)

As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?

And each time I feel like this inside
There's one thing I wanna know:
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? Oh...
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding?

And as I walked on
Through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony

'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away, just makes me wanna cry
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? Oh...
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding?

So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony

'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away, just makes me wanna cry
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? Oh...
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding?

Understanding, brother
Understanding, sister
Understanding, people

When You Were A Boy You Were A Beautiful Boy lyrics - Deacon Blue

I want to love you
But everything is gonna to have to change
This cell's taught me
That everything can be chained
You read my letters
See all my cares
You see time passing
I see me and you will say

When you were a boy (you were a boy)
You were beautiful
When you were a boy (you were a boy)
You were beautiful
When you were a boy
I never thought you would be looking for such a girl

I'm going to love you
But things are going to be so strange
You'd better get ready
To make up your mind for your own way
I know December
But you say May
You'll say tomorrow
Nearly every day... and then you say
