No Line On The Horizon
I know a girl who’s like the sea / I watch her changing every day for me / Oh yeah / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / One day she’s still, the next she swells / You can hear the universe in her sea shells / Oh yeah / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / No, no line on the horizon, no line / I know a girl with a hole in her heart / She said infinity is a great place to start / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / She said “Time is irrelevant, it’s not linear” / Then she put her tongue in my ear / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / No, no line on the horizon / No, no line / No, no line on the horizon / No, no line / The songs in your head are now on my mind / You put me on pause / I’m trying to rewind and replay / Every night I have the same dream / I’m hatching some plot, scheming some scheme / Oh yeah / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / I’m a traffic cop, rue du Marais / The sirens are wailing but it’s me that wants to get away / Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh / No line on the horizon / No, no line / No, no line on the horizon / No, no line
Magnificent
Magnificent / Magnificent / I was born / I was born to be with you / In this space and time / After that and ever after I haven’t had a clue / Only to break rhyme / This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue / Only love, only love can leave such a mark / But only love, only love can heal such a scar / I was born / I was born to sing for you / I didn’t have a choice but to lift you up / And sing whatever song you wanted me to / I give you back my voice / From the womb my first cry, it was a joyful noise… / Only love, only love can leave such a mark / But only love, only love can heal such a scar / Justified till we die, you and I will magnify / The Magnificent / Magnificent / Only love, only love can leave such a mark / But only love, only love unites our hearts / Justified till we die, you and I will magnify / The Magnificent / Magnificent / Magnificent
Moment Of Surrender
I tied myself with wire / To let the horses run free / Playing with the fire / Until the fire played with me / The stone was semi-precious / We were barely conscious / Two souls too cool to be / In the realm of certainty / Even on our wedding day / We set ourselves on fire / Oh God, do not deny her / It’s not if I believe in love / But if love believes in me / Oh, believe in me / At the moment of surrender / I folded to my knees / I did not notice the passers-by / And they did not notice me / I’ve been in every black hole / At the altar of the dark star / My body’s now a begging bowl / That’s begging to get back, begging to get back / To my heart / To the rhythm of my soul / To the rhythm of my unconsciousness / To the rhythm that yearns / To be released from control / I was punching in the numbers at the ATM machine / I could see in the reflection / A face staring back at me / At the moment of surrender / Of vision over visibility / I did not notice the passers-by / And they did not notice me / I was speeding on the subway / Through the stations of the cross / Every eye looking every other way / Counted down ‘til the Pentecost / At the moment of surrender / Of vision of over visibility / I did not notice the passers-by / And they did not notice me.
Unknown Caller
Sunshine, sunshine / Sunshine, sunshine / Oh, oh / Oh, oh / I was lost between the midnight and the dawning / In a place of no consequence or company / 3:33 when the numbers fell off the clock face / Speed dialling with no signal at all / Go, shout it out, rise up / Oh, oh / Escape yourself, and gravity / Hear me, cease to speak that I may speak / Shush now / Oh, oh / Force quit and move to trash / I was right there at the top of the bottom / On the edge of the known universe where I wanted to be / I had driven to the scene of the accident / And I sat there waiting for me / Restart and re-boot yourself / You’re free to go / Oh, oh / Shout for joy if you get the chance / Password, you, enter here, right now / Oh, oh / You know your name so punch it in / Hear me, cease to speak that I may speak / Shush now / Oh, oh / Then don’t move or say a thing
I’ll go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight
She’s a rainbow and she loves the peaceful life / Knows I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight / There’s a part of me in the chaos that’s quiet / And there’s a part of you that wants me to riot / Everybody needs to cry or needs to spit / Every sweet tooth needs just a little hit / Every beauty needs to go out with an idiot / How can you stand next to the truth and not see it? / A change of heart comes slow / It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain / As you start out the climb / Do you believe me, or are you doubting / We’re gonna make it all the way to the light / But I know I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight / Every generation gets a chance to change the world / Pity the nation that will listen to your boys and girls / ’Cos the sweetest melody is the one we haven’t heard / Is it true the perfect love drives out all fear? / The right to appear ridiculous is something I hold dear / Oh, but a change of heart comes slow / It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain / As you start out the climb / Listen for me, I’ll be shouting / We’re gonna make it all the way to the light / But you know I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight / Baby, baby, baby, I know I’m not alone / Baby, baby, baby, I know I’m not alone / It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain / As we start out the climb / Listen for me, I’ll be shouting / Shouting to the darkness, squeeze out sparks of light / You know we’ll go crazy / You know we’ll go crazy / You know we’ll go crazy if we don’t go crazy tonight / Oh oh / Slowly now / Oh oh
Get On Your Boots
The future needs a big kiss / Winds blows with a twist / Never seen a moon like this / Can you see it too? / Night is falling everywhere / Rockets at the fun fair / Satan loves a bomb scare / But he won’t scare you / Hey, sexy boots / Get on your boots, yeah / You free me from the dark dream / Candy floss ice cream / All our kids are screaming / But the ghosts aren’t real / Here’s where we gotta be / Love and community / Laughter is eternity / If joy is real / You don’t know how beautiful / You don’t know how beautiful you are / You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you? / You don’t know how beautiful you are /That’s someone’s stuff they’re blowing up / We’re into growing up / Women of the future / Hold the big revelations / I got asubmarine / You got gasoline / I don’t want to talk about wars between nations / Not right now / Hey sexy boots... / Get on your boots, yeah / Not right now / Bossy boots / You don’t know how beautiful / You don’t know how beautiful you are /You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you? / You don’t know how beautiful you are / Hey sexy boots / I don’t want to talk about the wars between the nations / Sexy boots, yeah / Let me in the sound / Let me in the sound / Let me in the sound, sound / Let me in the sound, sound / Meet me in the sound / Let me in the sound / Let me in the sound, now / God, I’m going down / I don’t wanna drown now / Meet me in the sound / Let me in the sound / Let me in the sound / Let me in the sound, sound / Let me in the sound, sound / Meet me in the sound / Get on your boots / Get on your boots / Get on your boots / Yeah hey hey
Stand Up Comedy
Love love love love love… / Love love love love love… / I got to stand up and take a step / You and I have been asleep for hours / I got to stand up / The wire is stretched in between our two towers / Stand up in this dizzy world / Where a lovesick eye can steal the view / I’m gonna fall down if I can’t stand up / For your love / Love love love love love… / Stand up, this is comedy / The DNA lottery may have left you smart / But can you stand up to beauty, dictator of the heart / I can stand up for hope, faith, love / But while I’m getting over certainty / Stop helping God across the road like a little old lady / Out from under your beds / C’mon ye people / Stand up for your love / Love love love love love… / I gotta stand up to ego but my ego’s not really the enemy / It’s like a small child crossing an eight lane highway / On a voyage of discovery / Stand up to rock stars, Napolean is in high heels / Josephine, be careful of small men with big ideas / Out from under your beds / C’mon ye people / Stand up for your love / Love love love love love… / God is love / And love is evolution’s very best day / Soul rockin’ people moving on / Soul rockin’ people on and on / C’mon ye people / We’re made of stars / C’mon ye people / Stand up then sit down for your love / Love love love love love… / Love love love love love…
Fez – Being Born
Six o’clock / On the autoroute / Burning rubber, burning chrome / Bay of Cadiz and ferry home / Atlantic sea cut glass / African sun at last / Lights… flash past… / Like memories / A speeding head, a speeding heart / I’m being born, a bleeding start / The engines roar, blood curling wail / Head first then foot / Then heart sets sail
White As Snow
Where I came from there were no hills at all / The land was flat, the highway straight and wide / My brother and I would drive for hours / Like we had years instead of days / Our faces as pale as the dirty snow / Once I knew there was a love divine / Then came a time I thought it knew me not / Who can forgive forgiveness where forgiveness is not / Only the
lamb as white as snow / And the water, it was icy / As it washed over me / And the moon shone above me / Now this dry ground it bears no fruit at all / Only poppies laugh under the crescent moon / The road refuses strangers / The land the seeds we sow / Where might we find the lamb as white as snow / As boys we would go hunting in the woods / To sleep the night shooting out the stars / Now the wolves are every passing stranger / Every face we cannot know / If only a heart could be as white as snow / If only a heart could be as white as snow
Breathe
16th of June, nine 0 five, door bell rings / Man at the door says if I want to stay alive a bit longer / There’s a few things I need you to know. Three / Coming from a long line of travelling sales people on my mother’s side / I wasn’t gonna buy
just anyone’s cockatoo / So why would I invite a complete stranger into my home / Would you? / These days are better than that / These days are better than that / Every day I die again, and again I’m reborn / Every day I have to find the courage / To walk out into the street / With arms out / Got a love you can’t defeat / Neither down or out / There’s nothing you have that I need / I can breathe / Breathe now / 16th of June, Chinese stocks are going up / And I’m coming down with some new Asian virus / Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man / Doc says you’re fine, or dying / Please / Nine 0 nine, St John Divine, on the line, my pulse is fine / But I’m running down the road like loose electricity / While the band in my head plays a striptease / The roar that lies on the other side of silence / The forest fire that is fear so deny it / Walk out into the street / Sing your heart out / The people we meet / Will not be drowned out / There’s nothing you have that I need / I can breathe / Breathe now / Yeah, yeah / We are people borne of sound / The songs are in our eyes / Gonna wear them like a crown / Walk out, into the sunburst street / Sing your heart out, sing my heart out / I’ve found grace inside a sound / I found grace, it’s all that I found / And I can breathe / Breathe now
Cedars Of Lebanon
Yesterday I spent asleep / Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap / Spent the night trying to make a deadline / Squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline / I have your face here in an old Polaroid / Tidying the children’s clothes and toys / You’re smiling back at me, I took the photo from the fridge / Can’t remember what then we did / I haven’t been with a woman, it feels like for years / Thought of you the whole time, your salty tears / This shitty world sometimes produces a rose / The scent of it lingers and then it just goes / Return the call to home / The worst of us are a long drawn out confession / The best of us are geniuses of compression / You say you’re not going to leave the truth alone / I’m here ’cos I don’t want to go home / Child drinking dirty water from the river bank / Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank / I’m waiting on the waiter, he’s taking a while to come / Watching the sun go down on Lebanon / Return the call to home / Now I’ve got a head like a lit cigarette / Unholy clouds reflecting in a minaret / You’re so high above me, higher than everyone / Where are you in the Cedars of Lebanon? / Choose your enemies carefully ’cos they will define you / Make them interesting ’cos in some ways they will mind you / They’re not there in the beginning but when your story ends / Gonna last with you longer than your friend
