"Suffer Me"
She wanted something just like the real thing
He needed love and it all worked out somehow
He knows that love is the king of emotion but
He can't touch her cause she's too perfect now
But she wasn't like that then
And he wasn't like that then
They were everything
Everything they need
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
She wasn't thinking about anyone else just then
But she knew someone else would always come to mind
Cause they were strangers living in a feeling
They were scared when they heard they talked about love
But it wasn't like that then
It just wasn't like that then
They took everything
Cause everything was free
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Oh yes and they were thinning out
At that moment where we're all afraid
Started thinking that pretty soon one of them would leave
But she says suffer me
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Suffer me
Call on me and I
I will call on you
Call on you
"Heavy"
It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving it up
Man I thought that you were joking
And I'm broken
You burn for a little while
Pass it on and try something else
Yeah, you know that you're the one
And you turned on me
'Cause that's the way you heard it was supposed to be
Right away you start thinking about
The wrong things and start giving up
Yeah, you know that we're all quitters
Big sinners
So tell me 'cause I don't understand
Just how to be more to the right
You know, you know that means so much
And you turned on me
Yeah, 'cuz I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy
So go
You could sell me about anything
And I would buy because I like your face
Yeah, you know that I'm a sucker
A little fucker
Tell me it's only me
And I'll tell you it's only you
'Cause only you can make me weak
And you turned on me
Yeah, 'cuz I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy
Were when things were heavy
Love got so heavy
Love got so heavy...
Yeah, I'm sick and thin, thin, thin, thin
It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving it up
Man I thought that you were joking
"Tired"
You've been talking for an hour,
and I swear to God that I can't hear a word you say
So would you come to me, come to me
I get caught up and the waves of conversation they wash over me
And they cover me, they cover me
Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if I built a wall around your heart
and dared you to come in
I could lie to you and say I didn't mean it
But hurts a funny thing and it makes you stronger
[chorus:]
All is nothing in moderation
It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger
Well I believe I'm just plain tired
There's a funny way your lip shakes when I know that you've been lying,
and it touches me
It comforts me, it comforts me
I guess I should be satisfied, did you say you love me half the time
Well let's settle there, we can build from there, build from there
Would you be happier if I was only half the man I am
You could shadow me and dare me to come in
I could lie to you and say I didn't mean it
But it really doesn't matter when you stop to think about it
[CHORUS]
The end is coming she don't even feel it
It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy
Well I believe I'm just plain tired, I'm tired (oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if I built a wall around your heart
and dared you to come in
I can lie to you, say I didn't mean it
But hurts a funny thing, hurts a funny thing
[CHORUS]
The end is coming she don't even feel it
It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy
Well I believe I'm just plain tired, tired
Well all is nothing in moderation
Dirty feeling, strange sensation
I believe, I believe
Believe I'm tired
"You and I and I"
Well it's for sure
Well things came down hard
But you couldn't wait here
All I ever think about is myself
And anyone else
Well they get strung out
But I get high, high, high
But it's something you better get straight
I don't got no room in my life
Pick up the anchor set it straight
Well stop, well I, I don't wanna thank you
Honey I don't think so
You'd better well stop and try
Cause if there's a distance here between us
Well it's you and I & I, I, I, I
Yeah well it's a shame you pander to me
Come on and stroke on my ego
Like it's never been broke before
Hell by anyone else
And what doesn't kill you
It makes you linger and it makes you wonder
Hell, for goodness sake
Do you ever get sleep?
If there's one thing I believe
If it doesn't kill you, doesn't stay here
Well stop well I don't wanna thank you
Honey I don't think so
You'd better stop and try
Cause if there's a distance here between us
Well it's you & I & I, I, I, I
But it's something you better get straight
I don't got no room in my life
Pick up the anchor and set it straight
Well stop, well I, I don't wanna thank you
Honey I don't think so
You'd better well stop and try
Cause if there's a distance here between us
Well it's you and I & I, I, I, I
I will stop
Well I, I don't wanna thank you
Honey I don't think so
You'd better stop and yeah well try
And if there's a distance here between us
Then it's you and I & I, I, I, I
"Modern Love" (David Bowie)
I dont want to go out
I wont stay in
Get things done
I catch a paper boy
But things dont really change
Im standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
Theres no sign of life
Its just the power to charm
Im lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
Never gonna fall for
Modern love - walks beside me
Modern love - walks on by
Modern love - gets me to the church on time
Church on time - terrifies me
Church on time - makes me party
Church on time - puts my trust in God and man
God and man - no confessions
God and man - no religion
God and man - dont believe in modern love
Its not really work
Its just the power to charm
Im still standing in the wind
But I never wave bye bye
But I try, I try
Never gonna fall for
Modern love - walks beside me
Modern love - walks on by
Modern love - gets me to the church on time
Church on time - terrifies me
Church on time - makes me party
Church on time - puts my trust in God and man
God and man - no confessions
God and man - no religion
God and man - dont believe in modern love
Modern love - walks beside me
Modern love - walks on by
Modern love - gets me to the church on time
Church on time - terrifies me
Church on time - makes me party
Church on time - puts my trust in God and man
God and man - no confessions
God and man - no religion
God and man - I dont believe in modern love
Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love
Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love
Modern love - modern love, walks beside me
Modern love - modern love, walks on by
Modern love - modern love, walks beside me
Modern love - modern love, walks on by
Never gonna fall for
Never gonna fall for
"Remedy"(Black Crows)
Baby, baby why can't you sit still?
Who killed that bird out on you window sill?
Are you the reason that he broke his back?
Did I see you laugh about that?
If I come on like a dream?
Would you let me show you what I mean?
If you let me come on inside?
Will you let it glide?
Can I have some remedy?
Remedy for me please.
Cause if I had some remedy
I'd take enough to please me.
Baby, baby why did you dye your hair?
Why you always keeping with your mother's dare?
Baby why's who's who, who know you too?
Did the other children scold on you?
If I come on like a dream?
Would you let me show you what I mean?
If you let me come on inside?
Will you let it slide?
"Come Dancing"(The Kinks)
They put a parking lot on a piece of land
When the supermarket used to stand.
Before that they put up a bowling alley
On the site that used to be the local palais.
Thats where the big bands used to come and play.
My sister went there on a saturday.
Come dancing,
All her boyfriends used to come and call.
Why not come dancing, its only natural?
Another saturday, another date.
She would be ready but shes always make them wait.
In the hallway, in anticipation,
He didnt know the night would end up in frustration.
Hed end up blowing all his wages for the week
All for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek.
Come dancing,
Thats how they did it when I was just a kid,
And when they said come dancing,
My sister always did.
My sister should have come in a midnight,
And my mum would always sit up and wait.
It always ended up in a big row
When my sister used to get home late.
Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight,
Two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate.
The day they knocked down the palais
My sister stood and cried.
The day they knocked down the palais
Part of my childhood died, just died.
Now Im grown up and playing in a band,
And theres a car park where the palais used to stand.
My sisters married and she lives on an estate.
Her daughters go out, now its her turn to wait.
She knows they get away with things she never could,
But if I asked her I wonder if she would,
Come dancing,
Come on sister, have yourself a ball.
Dont be afraid to come dancing,
Its only natural.
Come dancing,
Just like the palais on a saturday.
And all her friends will come dancing
Where the big bands used to play
"Time After Time" (Cyndi Lauper)
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after
Sometimes you picture me
Im walking too far ahead
Youre calling to me, I cant hear
What youve said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If youre lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you Ill be waiting
Time after time
If youre lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you Ill be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows youre wondering
If Im ok
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time
If youre lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you Ill be waiting
Time after time
You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If youre lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you Ill be waiting
Time after time
If youre lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you Ill be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
