Go late get home
Sing for your supper
Sing for your Mother
Never let them hear you
Fall behind you can fall behind
I’ll be there I’ll be there you can
Fall behind you can fall behind
I’ll be there I’ll be there
Just never let them hear you
Go late get home
Sing for your supper
Sing for your Mother
Never let them hear you cry

There’s no way to know
Where to go now
Let’s go you know
There’s no way to know
Where to go now

Hearts Get Started

I can see a year now
I can see a whole year
and another one
stretching on
just time and space
for all our little plans
I can see in colours now
I can see all of them
and it’s spring time
inside my mind
and everything is
getting overgrown
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
Press play start the day
no more stuck in time
press play start the day
you know we’ve got time
and time
and time
I can see a year now
I can see a whole year
and another one
stretching on
just time and space
for all our little plans
I can see in colours now
I can see all of them
and it’s spring time
inside my mind
and everything is
getting overgrown
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
Hearts get started
I can see a year now
I can see a whole year
I can see a year now
I can see a whole year

There’s a picture in my book
a picture I think you took
I must have been 5 or 7
In my purple frilly togs
My hair wet and water logged
With his bucket had all
Tied with ribbons
And all around is golden sand
And water in between like rivers
And all you see is golden sand
And he and I
We’re on top of the water
In this picture in my book
There’s you and your blonde hair
Is flying in the early evening.
And your phantom parent tred
Leaving footsteps where you fled
But we are safe and you’re
Not leaving
And all around is golden sand
And water in between like rivers
And all you see is golden sand
And he and I
We’re on top of the water
Warm light, warm light
Warm light, warm light
Covered our skin
So there’s this picture in my book
And I hope to find a little
Of the love that’s in my look
As I stare at you
And he smiles at you
And we we’re on top of the water

I think I just saved my own life
I think I did
I think I just saved my own life
I think I did
All the light is streaming out
it’s filling up it’s pouring out
I think I just saved my own life
I think I did
I think I just saved my own life
I think I did
All the light is streaming out
it’s filling up it’s pouring out
If I can’t have new ones
I still have old ones
so I’ll just sit here
waiting for the day to come
when I can have new ones
but I still old ones
so I’ll just sit here
dreaming in the morning sun

The Whiskey Song
03:21

There’s a man he’s sitting at a bar now
Waiting for a plane to take him home
And when he gets there
he’ll find the things there
that he missed when he was alone
He’s gonna say
Hey hey daughter Hey son
Where’s your Mother dear
It’s been so long now and I don’t know how
I’m ever gonna fit in
When I’m home, When I’m home
(Daddy come home, Daddy come home)
And so this man they call him the Rover
Yeah he’s a metamorphic soul
He likes it on the rocks
Clicking to the beat of the Jukebox
But in the end it always takes its toll
He’s gonna say
Hey, hey daughter hey son
Where’s your Mother dear
I’ve a bottle or two and I’ll share with you
How I nearly died out there
Take me home, Take me home
(Daddy come home, Daddy come home)
One whiskey two whiskey three whiskey four
(Rocks are the silent witnesses of this earth. They were here before us and they’ll be here till the end)
And so this daughter
she’s sitting by the window,
Waiting for her Dad to come back home
It’s a Sunday he should’ve been here Friday
But he got his flight time wrong
He’s gonna say
Hey, hey daughter hey son
Where’s your Mother dear
Won’t you sit me down
won’t you tell me now
all the things you learned
This year
Now I’m home, Now I’m home
(Daddy come home, Daddy come home)
One whiskey two whiskey three whiskey four
(Daddy come home please just come home)

Soph My Dear

Soph my dear
you've seen too much
And now you've gone away
Don't give up hope
it's not enough
I know but please stay
and taste the sweet
it's on your lips
and smell the golden air
it's bright with sun
and I can see
it's lighting up your hair
Soph my girl
it's been too long
two years is up today
I don't know how
to hope and I
can feel you pull away
So taste the sweet
it's on your lips
and smell the golden air
it's bright with sun
and I can see
it's lighting up your hair
And in the dreams
behind your eyes
I hope that you are dancing
and you are safe
behind those eyes
I think I hear you laughing

The Monster
03:21
|

|
She fell apart day by day
And week by week in silence
And in the dark a monster stirred
And fed upon her kindness
A blue tint vase and chorus shoes
And flowers in her hair
She closed her eyes and held her breath
And wished for it to care
But all her blood was running cold
And she could only run
And push and push at he who loved
Until they both were done
And then this beast did something odd
This sucker out of life
This parasite fell to its knees
Presented her a knife
I have hurt you far to much
And you are all too young
I only wanted someone else
To put warmth in my lungs
She knelt before this fearsome creature
Cradled face with hand
She gently took the knife from him and
Placed it in the sand
You are not the one to blame
For all this dark and fury
I made you thus and here you are
In all your cruellest glory
She looked at it and it at her
And hand in hand they turned
And walked away in to the world
And where they touched
It burned

Russian Dolls
03:11
|

|
You’re talking to me leaning in
And telling me I’m missing Finn
He’s taken a year off from Uni
I’m listening and commenting
It’s interesting and worrying
He’s super smart
And I miss him like mad
But somewhere in this conversation
I get lost and lose momentum
Struggling to stay here
Where you are
Yeah somehow my imagination’s
Taken hold and my attention’s
Lost all sight and sound of
Where you are
My mind goes Lalalala
My mind goes Lalalala
Then suddenly I’m tripping through
A cannon-foddered land of blue
And wearing purple just to show I care
There’s elephants in waves of gold
An actual life-size Russian Doll
And at the top Finn’s leaping
Through the air
Somewhere in this conversation
I get lost and lose momentum
Struggling to stay here
Where you are
Yeah somehow my imagination’s
Taken hold and my attention’s
Lost all sight and sound of
Where you are
My mind goes Lalalala
My mind goes Lalalala
Don’t take offence at my indifference
I’m not trying to ignore you
If you knew the things I saw you would be
Lalalala
Come with me
Lalalala
Sing with me
I can’t hear you when you’re speaking I can’t hear you
Lalalala

Run run run
Through the underground
Run run run
From the men who’ve
Come come come
To get you
Run run run
Through the underground
Run run run
Come on they’ve
Come come come
To get you
Is it MI5 or 6
The CIA or the FBI
Or just some poor man
With his headphones in
Looking at me cos I’m
Looking at him
Run run run
Through the underground
Run run run
From the men who’ve
Come come come
To get you
Run run run
Through the underground
Run run run
Come on they’ve
Come come come
To get you
What if you’re a spy and you didn’t know it
How could you know it
How would you know it
Is this some twisted work of fiction
And if not then which ones’
Jurisdiction am I in
Run run run
Through the underground
Run run run
From the men who’ve
Come come come
To get you
Run run run, through the underground
Run run run, through the underground
Run run run, through the underground
Run

Jupiter Rising

We are so small and my heart grows
we are wild
we are so small and my heart grows
we are wild
we are what we need to be
we are what we need to be
We are so small and my heart grows
we are wild
we are so small and my heart grows
we are wild
we are what we need to be
we are what we need to be
Jupiter’s rising by the moonlight
rising in the moonlight
oh my days
she is all my days
Jupiter’s rising by the moonlight
rising in her moonlight
oh my days
she is all my ways
and I will fight
we foxes come at night
and I will fight
we foxes come at night
so help me cross the roads
I cannot cross alone
she and I and you
we wander nights alone
you are too far away
to hear the traffic moan
and you probably can’t see
the streetlight’s ghostly glow
or feel the glass beneath my feet
as I run along the lonely streets
So help me cross the roads
I cannot cross alone
We are so small and my heart grows
