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 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
