Will the sun rise
Will the day break
Will the world turn
Out of darkness again?

Well I don't say it won't,
But I can't say it will ....
Either way wouldn't surprise me.

You see it takes faith in something
You need faith, even just one thing.

You need faith to open a door
You need faith not to fall to the floor
You need faith to cry
You need faith to live
You don't need faith to die
You've got to have faith
Not to feel small.
I believe in believing but
I've got no faith at all.

And if I leave these things
Travel far away
When my back is turned
Will they still be here?

Well I don't say they won't,
But I can't say they will ....
Either way wouldn't surprise me.

It takes faith in something
Faith in one thing.

And when you take my hand and tell me
You will always be here with me
Always

Well I don't say you won't
But I can't say you will ....
Either way wouldn't surprise me

You see it takes faith in something
Faith, even just one thing.

You need faith to walk out a door
You need faith to get off the floor
You need faith to cry
You need faith to live
Who the hell needs faith to die
You've got to have faith
Not to feel small.
I believe in believing but
I've got no faith at all.

I believe in believing but
I've got no faith at all.

She got the mop top curls up on her head,
And when she shakes those locks you know my heart stops dead;
She's Virginia.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, Virginia.

And when she looks at me with those green green eyes
You know my heart kick-starts- it's no surprise
'Cos she's Virginia.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, Virginia.

I love the way she walks.
I listen when she talks.
I really love her style.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, you make me smile.

She got a low-down chuckle, it's a dirty sound,
You know it flips me over and it turns me round
'Cos she's Virginia.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, Virginia.

She's not Long Tall Sally, not Maybelene,
She's not Dizzy Miss Lizzy, not Sweet Sixteen,
She's Virginia.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, Virginia.

I really love her legs.
I want to sit up and beg.
I want to swing her hips.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie you make me flip.

If she'll have me I'll be such a lucky guy,
Be my baby, be the cherry on my pie.
Oh my honey, oh my sweet, my turtle dove,
Be the object of my pure and holy love.

I love her fuselage
And her décolletage.
I love her cul de grace
I love her cul de grace
She got a cul de grace
I love her cul de grace

I want to eat her peach.
I want to comb her beach.
I want to lick her skin.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie I'm in a spin.
I love her turned-up nose.
I want to suck her toes!
I want to drink her dry.
Gin-Gin-Ginnie,
Gin-Gin-Ginnie,
Gin-Gin-Ginnie, M-my oh my.

We were just killing time,
You were yours and I was mine.
Laughing and lying
Needing someone.

We didn't want to last,
Changes couldn't come too fast.
Easy as crying
Under the sun.

No need for hope when the future is open,
Summer of fun.
No need to care when all bonds can be broken
Under the sun.

It's the feeling new,
The joy of pain, betrayed by you:
Any emotion is better than none

To feel your heartbeat race,
Love and hurting in one place,
Flow to the ocean
Under the sun.

Strange to recall how we wanted it all.
Lucky for some.
Strange to forget that the waves rise and fall.
Under the sun.

In the Summer daze
With the sun above,
In the Summer haze
Can you tell it's love?

This is as good as it gets
This is as good as it gets
This is as good as it gets
This is as good as it gets

We were just killing time,
You were yours and I was mine.
Laughing and lying
Needing someone.

We didn't want to last,
Changes couldn't come too fast.
Easy as crying
Under the sun.

No need for hope when the future is open,
Summer of fun.
No need to care when all bonds can be broken
Under the sun.

When I was young, maybe nine or ten,
I lay awake at night thinking the world might end
And no-one could send for help.
There was a film downstairs on TV.
I shut my eyes and I covered my ears for the fear that
Maybe I’d see the end.

But time keeps opening doors
And days they come and they go,
But I wasn’t to know
The Day The Earth Caught Fire.

Days went speeding by,
Weeks began to fly,
Months more frantic took years for granted
And the world got smaller but I didn’t get taller
And life got deeper and harder and cheaper
And the scariest things that scared me now were called
Sally and Susan and I didn’t know how to get near them,
How to get near them;
Well I could see, hear them.
But how to taste, touch and hold and

Time keeps opening doors.
Days, they come and they go.
But I wasn’t to know
The Day The Earth Caught Fire and
Love comes to us all-
We, we all get to fall.
And I fell for Janet Munro
The Day The Earth Caught Fire.

And now the earth is burning for real.
It’s not good but we don’t really feel that it’s tragic-
Surely we’ll patch it up.
You see we got old but we didn’t get wise,
You can’t hide by closing your eyes to what scares you.
Nothing outstares you now.

And time keeps opening doors:
Days they come and they go
But we weren’t to know
The Day The Earth Caught Fire and
Pride comes to us all.
We, we all get to fall.
And God knows we fell for it all
The Day The Earth Caught Fire.

The Day The Earth Caught Fire.

Don’t tell me I’m sweet, don’t say that, not sweet.
I’d been getting my hopes up high,
Now you’re letting those high hopes die
When you tell me I’m sweet, I don't feel too sweet.
Sweetness never gets the girl.
(Sweetness sucks)
Sweetness never gets the girl.
(Sweetness sucks)

I thought the night had gone so well.
All my rusty charms had got you in their spell.
But then you stopped at your front door
And said those little words sent me crashing through the floor.

Tell me I’m bad,
Tell me I’m mad,
Tell me I’m cruel
But you’re a fool, you don’t care.
Tell me I’m every mother’s nightmare,
Tell me I’m nasty, I’m brutish, I’m short, but just don’t say
Sweet.

I thought the night had gone so well,
But that just goes to show that you can never tell.
Those words you said at your front door
Told me we’d be friends; only that and nothing more.

So don’t tell me I’m sweet, don’t say that, not sweet.
I’d been getting my hopes up high,
Now you’re letting those high hopes die
When you tell me I’m sweet, I don't feel too sweet.
Sweetness never gets the girl.
(Sweetness sucks)
Sweetness never gets the girl.
(Sweetness sucks)

Blind man Luck and poor man Fate,
They haunt your nights and they dog your days.
And they’ll always be right behind you,
And they’ll always be just ahead.
And if sometimes they’re there beside you,
Well that’s just to remind you that

Things fall apart, every beat of your heart
Takes you back to the start of the race.
Catch as you can as the stick-tapping man
Reaches out for your hand in the dark,
He’ll whisper...
Close your eyes and count to ten.
Close your eyes and count to ten.

When the street lamps glow and the pavements glisten,
You can hear their steps if you stop to listen.
Can you tell if they’re getting nearer?
Or if they’re heading the other way?
And though you never know where you’ll see them,
You can be sure what they’ll say, they say....

Hush now.

Everyone knows, history shows,
Fortune favours fools and rogues.
Chance may come, lucky for some,
Fate will change the rules

And the game goes on as the music plays.
It’s the same old song, it’s the latest craze.
We all follow another leader
Or we follow the one behind.
And if the future is getting clearer
Then it’s just to remind you that

I’m the man with the cold eyes
With the broad grin
With the firm grip
I’m the man

And you can see me smiling
Smiling through the wall
You can see me smiling
Smiling through the wall
I don’t care what the people say
They all love me anyway

And you can see me talking
Confident and bright
You can see me walking
My left foot follows right
See my hand on heart say
Good things are coming soon
But if you see me up around midnight
I’ll be howling at the moon.

I’m the man with the low-down
With the high life
With the slow dive
I’m the man

And you can hear me laughing
Laughing through the wall
Yes you can hear me laughing
Laughing through the wall
I can hear what people say
I don’t like them anyway

And you can see me talking
Confident and bright
You can see me walking
My left foot follows right
Hear me say sincerely
Trust me with your life
But if you see me up around midnight
I’ll be sharpening my knife

Draw the blinds and close the curtains
Turn the lights down nice and low
Let me have your full attention
If it helps then we’ll take it nice and slow

Bless me with your hands
You can’t tell me no
Cos honey... I’m the man
With the cold eyes
And the broad grin
And the firm grip
And the confident disguise

What did I just say?
Did I really mean it?
Did you believe me if I did?
Just came out that way,
There was nothing in it-
Nothing I’d ever say again.

But you pushed too far, you dug in too deep,
And now you regret it and we can’t go to sleep.
I said that I’m sorry but you didn’t reply
So we lie back to back, we don’t see eye to eye.

But in the midnight, in the midnight,
Days begin.
Days begin.
In the midnight, in the darkest hour,
Days begin.
Days begin.

And when morning comes
As you wake up slowly,
Focus your eyes upon my face,
I watch your slow, wide smile.
I’m nice and warm, it’s chilly outside,
The world doesn’t need us, we can stay in and hide.
We'll go undercover, you can share my disguise.
Last night we were foolish but this morning we’re wise.

‘Cause in the midnight, in the midnight,
Days begin. Days begin.
In the midnight, in the darkest hour,
Days begin. Days begin.

Do you think we learn?
Think we’re older, wiser?
Think that we’ll never fight again?

Day turns to night, night turns to day,
Light turns to dark, it’s the natural way.
Your heart’s not your own but then neither is mine,
So we’ll make every promise one day at a time.

‘Cause in the midnight, in the midnight,
Days begin. Days begin.
In the midnight, in the darkest hour,
Days begin. Days begin in the dark of the
Midnight.

I watch you, you don’t see me,
Your laughing.
I’m half inclined to
Find some reason just to catch your eye
So I can make some joke and maybe act surprised
And then maybe you’ll laugh and you’ll
Smile at me before
Carrying on indifferently....

But I don’t want to get close to you,
I don’t want to care.
I don’t want to come knocking at your front door,
Follow you everywhere.
You want someone else, you’ve never
Given me a serious thought and so
I don’t want to get hooked on you,
But I’m already caught.

I wish
I could make your
Eyes shine
Half as bright as
He can do when he looks at you
And he makes you blush, I can see it’s true
That he’s right for you, that he rings your bell
And if that’s what you want then it’s just as well...

That I don’t want to get close to you,
I don’t want to care.
I don’t want to come knocking at your front door,
Follow you everywhere.
You want someone else, you’ve never
Given me a serious thought and so
I don’t want to get hooked on you,
But I’m already caught.

I’ve been falling, falling for you.

See me falling, falling for you.

I don’t want to get hooked on you.

Goodbye, Judy, it’s seven years
Since we tore that strip, since we dried those tears,
Took me seven years to say goodbye,
Goodbye.

Good god, Mother, it’s not so bad.
If it’s twice as quick then it’s half as sad
So it’s not so bad is it, good god,
Good god.

I know I’m not making sense today
But then I’m already half-way away singing

Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye people, goodbye.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye buildings and cars.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye sinners, goodbye,
Goodbye cruel world.
I’m gonna live in the stars.

Love comes sooner or love comes late,
It depends on you, it depends on fate,
Ah but sooner or later your love comes,
Love comes.

Goodbye Judas I loved your kiss
But I never thought it would end like this
When I loved you kissing me goodbye,
Goodbye.

Now my taxi’s waiting, my sails are set,
My train’s at the station and I’m boarding that jet singing

Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye people, goodbye.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye buildings and cars.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye sinners, goodbye,
Goodbye cruel world.
I’m gonna live in the stars.

Instrumental

Now I’ve got nothing more to say
So I’ll sing this song and I’ll be on my way singing

Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye people, goodbye.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye buildings and cars.
Goodbye cruel world,
Goodbye suckers, goodbye,
Goodbye cruel world.
I’m gonna live in the stars.

Bless your cotton frocks, I think that Spring is here.
I shouldn’t be surprised, it happens every year.
Seasons never change around but people do.

But I won’t change my mind
So long as you can find the time,
So long as I believe you’re mine I know that
I love you
Today.
Today.

I just read a book, it tells you what to say.
How to win her love and steal her heart away.
But words will never work the way you want them to.

So this is unrehearsed;
So long as I can take your worst,
So long as you don’t leave me first I know that
I’ll love you
Today.
Today.

From here til then and in between
Who knows what that might come to mean?

Instrumental

So take this song, it’s sung for you.
I’ve done the best that I can do.

I could cross my heart and I could hope to die
If I should play you false, if I should tell a lie.
But that won’t guarantee that what I said was true,

So take me at my word
So long as you can be absurd,
So long as I can still be heard I’ll tell you
I love you
Today.
Today.

I’ve got a heart like a stone and it’s
Lonely as hell
Lonely as hell frozen over.
It chimes like an old hollow bone and it’s
Lonely as hell
Lonely as hell frozen over:
Winter was never so cold as today.

Come melt me.

Melt me down, melt me down, make me new.

The years have petrified me and it’s
Lonely as hell
Lonely as hell frozen over.
The ice has covered the sea and it’s
Lonely as hell
Lonely as hell frozen over:
Winter was never so cold as today,
Bring your ear close, you might just hear me say ....

Come melt me.

Melt me down, melt me down, make me new.

But I hope and I pray on this
Cold day in hell
Cold day in hell frozen over,
Cos you know what they say about
Cold days in hell:
All the most unlikely things can come true.
And what’s more surprising than me loving you?

Come melt me.

Melt me down, melt me down, make me new.

Melt me down.

I am an honest man,
I do the best I can.
I've told a lie or two
But never one concerning you.
Take this for real,
Take heart and seal our fate.
Tell the truth for me,
Reach out and tell me we are

Save me now before I go mad
That would really mean a lot to me.
I'm not saying this life is bad
But it's no better than it ought to be,
No better than it ought to be.

I know I take my time,
The least resistant line,
I've circled warily
Unsure if you're aware of me.
I'm breaking cover,
I need your love around
Every night and day,
I need to hear you say we're

If I were you, I wouldn't put my hand upon that handle,
If I were you, I wouldn't trust the flicker of that candle.
If you were me you wouldn't be about to do the stupid thing
I know that you're about to go ahead and do...

But don't, don't go in there,
Something's been there,
It could be there still.
And don't, don't go through that,
It's not true that
If you're good you will be safe.
Don't open up that door.
Don't open that door.

Some people think the slightest sound demands investigation,
Some people climb the darkest stair with no imagination.
Some people know that bolted doors are there to keep their secrets stored,
Some secrets better never to be told...

So don't, don't go in there,
Something's been there,
It could be there still.
And don't, don't go through that,
It's not true that
If you're good you will be safe.

Don't open up that door.

Don't open that door.
