    Thinking of a different time
    Palestine a modern problem
    Bounty and your wealth in land
    Terror in a best laid plan

    Watching them come and go
    Tomorrows and the yesterdays oh ho
    Christians and the unbelievers
    Hanging by the cross and nail oh ho

    But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky
    Pray and the heathen lie will disappear oh ho
    Prayers they hide the saddest view
    (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)
    And your prayers they break the sky in two
    (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)
    You pray till the break of dawn

    My head is spinning and my legs are weak
    Goose-step dancing, can't hear myself speak
    Hope in the eyes of the ugly girls
    That settle for the lies of the last chances
    When slow motion drunks pick wallflower dancers

    You come here looking for the right to glory
    Go back home with a hard luck story
    I can't hardly wait around
    'Till the weekend come to town

    Play one more for my radio sweetheart
    Hide your love, hide your love
    Though we are so far apart
    You gotta hide your love
    'Cause that's the way the whole thing started
    I wish we had never parted

    Radio is a sound salvation
    Radio is cleaning up the nation
    They say you better listen to the voice of reason
    But they don't give you any choice
    'cause they think that it's treason.
    So you had better do as you are told.
    You better listen to the radio.

    Narrow daylight entered my room
    Shining hours were brief
    Winter is over
    Summer is near
    Are we stronger than we believe?

    I walked through halls of reputation
    Among the infamous too
    As the camera clings to the common thread
    Beyond all vanity
    Into a gaze to shoot you through

    Is the kindness we count upon
    Hidden in everyone?

    I stepped out in a sunlit grove
    Although deep down I wished it would rain
    Washing away all the sadness and tears
    That will never fall so heavily again

    Is the kindness we count upon
    Hidden in everyone

    I stood there in the salt spray air
    Felt wind sweeping over my face
    I ran up through the rocks to the old
    wooden cross
    It's a place where I can find some peace

    Narrow daylight entered my room
    Shining hours were brief
    Winter is over
    Summer is near
    Are we stronger than we believe?

    We met in the summer and walked 'til the fall
    And breathless we talked, it was tongues.
    Despite what they'll say, it wasn't youth, we hit the truth

    Faces of strummer that fell from your wall
    And was left were they hung
    So sweet and bitter, they're what we found
    So drink them down and

    Walk out to winter, swear i'll be there.
    Chill will wake you, high and dry
    You'll wonder why.
    Walk out to winter, swear i'll be there.
    Chance is buried just below the blinding snow.

    and High land hard rain is still the better album)

    When the sun goes down here
    And darkness falls
    The blanket of winter
    Leaves no light at all

    You search for shelter
    To calm the storm
    Shaking with an instinct
    Just to stay warm

    But I'd walk through the snow barefoot
    If you'd open up your door
    I'd walk through the snow barefoot

    You hear the howling
    Of dogs and wind
    Stirring up the secrets
    That are frozen within

    The ice will haunt you
    It lays so deep
    Locking up inside you
    The dreams that you keep

    This wind ... through my soul ... blows cold

    This could be the very minute
    I'm aware I'm alive
    All these places feel like home

    With a name I'd never chosen
    I can make my first steps
    As a child of 25

    This is the straw, final straw in the
    Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
    Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
    I didn't enjoy it at the time

    You're the only thing that I love
    It scares me more every day
    On my knees I think clearer

    Goodness I saw it coming
    Or at least I'll claim I did
    But in truth I'm lost for words

    What have I done it's too late for that
    What have become truth is nothing yet
    A simple mistake starts the hardest time
    I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time

    Snowy girl
    Won't you take me down
    Because I'm coming down
    But is there anything there
    Everything there
    Everything happy with
    My little snow girl
    Snowy girl
    I pick up the picture of you
    You pick up the picture of me
    I pick up the picture of you
    Won't you take me down
    I need to be your clown, yeah
    But is there anything wrong
    Weather's all gone
    Anyone listening to my little snow girl
    Snowy girl
    Everything pretty
    Everything pale
    Every little touch of a rose in the mail
    Only one girl, she's laying in the snow
    Let me have a lean on your little elbow
    When we kiss, we kiss with laughter

    Dreamed I was an Eskimo
    Frozen wind began to blow
    Under my boots and around my toes
    The frost that bit the ground below
    It was a hundred degrees below zero...

    And my mama cried
    And my mama cried
    Nanook, a-no-no
    Nanook, a-no-no
    Don't be a naughty Eskimo
    Save your money, don't go to the show

    Well I turned around and I said "Oh, oh" Oh
    Well I turned around and I said "Oh, oh" Oh
    Well I turned around and I said "Ho, Ho"
    And the northern lights commenced to glow
    And she said, with a tear in her eye
    "Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow"
    "Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow"

    and even sorrier...

    Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean
    The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
    The snowbird sings the song he always sings
    And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring

    When I was young my heart was young then, too
    Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do
    But now I feel such emptiness within
    For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I can't win

    CHORUS
    Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    And take the snow back with you
    Where it came from on that day
    The one I love forever is untrue
    And if I could you know that I would
    Fly away with you

    The breeze along the river seems to say
    That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay
    So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go
    To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow

    CHORUS


    Yeah, if I could I know that I would fl-y-y-y-y away with you

    mornin LDB - no need to apologise...


    Hang onto your hopes my friend
    That's an easy thing to say
    But if your hopes should pass away
    Simply pretend, that you can build them again

    Look around grass is high fields are ripe
    It's the springtime of my life
    Seasons change with their scenery
    Weaving time in a tapestry
    Won't you stop and remember me

    Look around
    Leaves are brown and the sky
    Is a Hazy Shade of Winter

    Look around leaves are brown
    There's a patch of snow on the ground

    Hurrah, I get to post THIS..

    The color of the sky as far as I can see is coal grey.
    Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again.
    With a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather.
    A quiver in my lips as if I might cry.
    Well by the force of will my lungs are filled and so I breathe.
    Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave.
    Shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather.
    Quiver in my voice as I cry,
    "What a cold and rainy day. Where on earth is the sun hid away."
    I hear the sound of a noon bell chime. Now I'm far behind.
    You've put in 'bout half a day while here I lie
    with a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather.
    A quiver in my lip as if I might cry,
    "What a cold and rainy day. Where on earth is the sun hid away?"

    oooh - 10,000 maniacs LDB? very nice

    when your love's flown out the window
    and the pain comes through the door
    once again you've missed the boat
    and you're stranded on the shore,
    And you find out that what you had was never
    yours at all,
    friends and lovers that you knew so well will never take your calls
    So....... you blame the weather, oh-oh, blame the weather, oh-oh, blame the weather, oh-oh
