Hey Hey Lyrics

leonardo's bride
she turns the t.v. on
it's 9 a.m. she's bored again
she has no place to be
nothing going down
she just hangs around

she surrenders to it
there's a white flag blowing
she hangs her shoulders with a sigh
mona lisa smile

another cup of tea
she throws the window wide
it's cold inside
another cigarette
not alot to say
she's giving nothing away

she surrenders to it
there's a white flag blowing
she hangs her shoulders with a sigh
mona lise smile

if i could give her the world i surely would
but it's not that easy
but i can give her my love
and if that's enough
she'll be leonardo's bride

don't want to bring her down
but it gets to me
just to watch her be
but who am i to say
cause i've been there
we make such a fine pair

your love

this situation's out of hand
my friends don't really understand
what have i let myself into
how did i ever fall for you

your love, is going to be the death of me

your humour hits me like a train
don't tie me to the tracks again
you say i should be grateful
cause everything in life is fatal

your love is going to be the death of me

you say relax that it's all inside of my head
i ought to try to enjoy myself instead
it isn't easy being brave
when you're only inches from the grave

your love is going to be the death of me

swimmingly

if a dark cloud should follow me
if it only rained where i stood
wondering why
it wouldn't be the first time

if i fell from the edge of the universe
if i tumbled in nothingness
knowing my screams were a mime
it wouldn't be the first time

oh, isn't it lovely now everything's going
so swimmingly
oh' isn't it lovely now everything's moving
so swimmingly
so swimmingly

if i walked the streets with my shaddow
if i turned around to see it
with some other guy
it wouldn't be the first time

if i stormed the tower of song tonight
if only when morning came did it
surrender the rhyme
it wouldn't be the first time

oh, isn't it lovely now everything's going
so swimmingly
oh, isn't it lovely now everything's moving
so swimmingly
so swimmingly

disappear

you make me feel like i'm so worthless
you cut me down like a pedestrian
you make me run when i'm happy walking
you pick me up and put me down again

i don't need you hanging round me
i don't need you in my ear

i look at you and it makes me nervous
i hope i don't turn out that way
you're so caught up in your public service
you're so lost in what your friends will say

i don't need you hanging round me
i don't need you in my ear
i don't need your conversation
i just wish that you would disappear

you say it's only 'cause you're worried about me
i'm not worried so why should you
you better get another occupation
there's got to be something else to do

i don't need you hanging round me
i don't need you in my ear
i don't need your conversation
i just wish that you would disappear

faith

phone won't ring when you sit by it waiting
toast don't pop when you're watching the clock
we could be waiting on a sign
until the end of time
and there's still no guarantee
of it making sense to anyone

all we need's a little faith

now we can question ourselves
every book on every shelf
we can run a marathon
and still be where we started from
roll with the punches
swim with the tide
even an angel
can get taken for a ride

all we need's a little faith

i tell myself time and time again
somedays i am stronger
some days go for ever
there's always heart while the dream is there
you have to let it come through
it's better when it finds you

phone won't ring when you sit by it waiting
toast don't pop when you're watching the clock
we can only do
whatever can be done
we all eventually
take our place beside the sun

all we need's a little faith

back to top

i've stared at the sun

morning comes, surrounds me
nowhere to run, nowhere to go
the days are so long, without you
no sense of time, no senses at all
planet earth is turning
over and over like a merry-go-round
i'm stuck on the with no name
where would i be without your love ?
i've stared at the sun

the truth is
cheering for a puppet show
it's a thin thin line
we're walking
got to hold on with our arms open wide
red red square is burning
don't let the flames of freedom die
picture us, together
where would i be without your love ?
i've stared at the sun

overexposed, it's too late
to disconnect the way i feel
baby i'm lost, i'm falling
i took every number on the roulette wheel
but it wasn't enough
so tell me what is
you who know me better than that
chelsea girl, forever
where would i be without your love?
i've stared at the sun

living in the red

these days, are so pell mell
toss me some sleep will you find me down deep
in this dark well Leonardo's Bride - Hey Hey - http://motolyrics.com/leonardos-bride/hey-hey-lyrics.html
unpaid bills and an unmade bed

i tried, tried that whole bit
that merry-go-round
that goes round that went round
is not worth it
stop yourself now
before it goes to your head

ah, take what you want
take what you need
ah, take what you want
what you want from me
but no pictures please
no pictures please
living in the red

judge me
though i've sentenced myself
this labour of love
is a love that leaves no time
for much else
i'm not alone as a dreamer once said

ah, take what you want
take what you need
ah, take what you want
what you want from me
but no pictures please
no pictures please
living in the red

shoo ......

temperamental friend

if i only said the things you want to hear
what kind of friend would i be ?
why try hiding it
you gave yourself away
you took offence so easily

my temperamental friend
my temperamental friend
it doesn't have to end
my temperamental friend
my temperamental friend
ohh ........

yes i love you as you are
don't be mistaken
i was only having fun
that's o.k. with me
if that's o.k. with you
the joke's on everyone

my temperamental friend .......

if one day you see the humour
in the situation
please drop me a line
let me know you're fine

my temperamental friend
my temperamental friend
it doesn't have to end
my temperamental friend
my temperamental friend
will i see you again.

even when i'm sleeping

don't be confused by my apparent lack of ceremony, my mind is clear.
i may be low or miles high off in the distance, i want you near.
i love you
even when i'm sleeping.
when i close my eyes you're everywhere.
and if they take me flying on the magic carpet, see me wave.
if our communication fails i'll reconnect it, i want to rave.
i love you
even when i'm sleeping.
when i close my eyes you're everywhere.
no matter where the road is leading us remember don't be afraid.
we have a continent that sometimes comes between us, that's ok.
i love you
even when i'm sleeping.
when i close my eyes you're everywhere.

buzz

hey buzz
lewis carroll would have loved you.
hey buzz
there's a cloud around the room now.
i am so so sorry, i am so so sorry.
hey buzz
this town doesn't hold me anymore.
hey buzz
come on over here with me.
hey buzz
you just sit there are you happy?
we are running low, we are running low.
counting crosses on the wall
marking the days
this scene is fading, this scene is fading.
hey buzz
this town doesn't hold me anymore.
hey buzz
funny how we ended up here.
hey buzz
we will find our lucky feet again
just around the corner, just around the corner
counting crosses on the wall
marking the days.
this scene is fading, this scene is fading
hey buzz
lewis carroll sure will love you.

so brand new

strange news from another star is floating around.
now i know why when i try to stand up i fall down.
there walks a giant and the earth is just a stone in his shoe.
believe me baby when i tell you we are so brand new.
how can anything be of importance.
embrace confusion when it's making sense.
if you have a moment i know what we could do.
go bathing in the glory of it baby we are so brand new.
you already know what you need to know
you know it's all in your mind.
Any hour any moment could well be the first.
Our love is wide spread across the universe.
leave your window open and all your dreams come true.
i can feel it coming baby we are so brand new

kissing bedrock

you've been kissing bedrock i can tell
by the way you carry round the world
on your shoulders high,
ever wonder why.
the only way to go is up from here.
you've been kissing bedrock i can see
by the way you walk straight through me,
staring at your shoes nothing else to lose.
the only way to go is up from here.
you will come around,
you will come around,
soon enough you'll laugh about it.
you will come around, you will come around.
what could have ever shot you down.
you've been kissing bedrock that's ok
let the moon go on her wicked way.
dust yourself off now,
time will tell somehow.
the only way to go is up from here

stay

stay another change of heart,
stay another memory,
stay another great expectation,
stay another late movie.
stay another rush of blood,
stay another shooting star,
stay another revolution,
stay another fallen czar.
stay another spin of the bottle.
stay another night of holding on,
stay another sweet inspiration,
stay another love song.

hey hey

hey hey my friend
you're upside down again.
my my your hair's a mess
now it's anybody's guess.
funny how life can be a desperation.
you don't have to go for that.
hey hey my friend,
whose hands are on the wheel.
are they taking you for a ride
or are you just too numb to feel
the knives in your back
the thorn in your side.
you don't have to go for that.
there's a school of thought,
there's a bull in a china shop,
there's a bird in a cage,
there's a penny that wants to drop.
is this what you want?
hey hey my friend guess
i'll be seeing you round now.
when it happens again,
when you feel it drag you down,
you don't have to swallow it everytime.
you don't have to go for that.
