In the streets I’ll be watching you as the sun goes down Got the kind of look that I like to meet and my heart goes skipping around And I’ve got you under my tongue And I’ve got you under my tongue Many days have gone by with you not around And I wait to see whether you’ll show up in sight or sound And I’ve got you under my tongue And I’ve got you under my tongue Here we go And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah Back many years ago I used to wander around without a problem But these days it seems I’m on edge and I don’t know how to solve them And I’ve got you under my tongue It’s human nature to feel a little lonely sometimes It’s the sinful nature I need to escape to find something divine And I’ve got you under my tongue And I’ve got you under my tongue Here we go And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah Here we go And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah And I love you more than always, yeah

In the light we see it all Those who stand, those who fall Forever one will they be The others wiped out from history I know the strongest part of me will still remain I know it’s near I know the deepest heart of man is still the same I know it’s dear What will you say when you see his face The scourge of the human race Can it be oh so cruel Did you end up just a fool I know the strongest part of me will still remain I know it’s near I know the deepest heart of man is still the same I know it’s dear I take you places you can go I take you places you can go I take you places you can go, oh I know the strongest part of me will still remain I know it’s near I know the deepest heart of man is still the same I know it’s dear I know the strongest part of me will still remain I know it’s near I know the deepest heart of man is still the same I know it’s dear

By the light of the city You’ll be looking so pretty, oh and Our love will surely grow, surely grow Our love will surely grow, surely grow Our love will surely grow, surely grow Our love will surely grow, surely grow. By the light of the disco ball You’ll be looking oh so tall Chorus By the light of the night sky You’ll be looking in my eye Chorus By the light of the neon sign You’ll be looking oh so fine Chorus x2

The world is full of tragedy 03:04
lyrics

The world is full of tragedy And the exploitation of the poor for the sake of the wealthy The rich defending their position When they’re clearly in the wrong We’re all caught in the wheel Take us back to where we belong Never gonna need her Throw it in the fire All I’m gonna need’s my soul So let me go home There’s no easy answers and no hiding place How can a billion souls be judged I’m wary of my saving grace People are dying, who will call them to account One billion souls in the judgement My heart pains with the amount Chorus I know that you can see The changes that have come over me x2 Chorus

Time to mourn 04:58
lyrics
buy track
See my face, it’s hiding behind all the wanderings of my eyes See my heart, it’s blighted from all the evil left inside It’s enough, to bring my worst fears to the fore It’s enough, I wanna go back to the way things were before And it’s time to mourn and cry for mercy And it’s time to mourn and pray that you’ll go free See my face, it’s hardened from all the love that has escaped See my heart, it’s asking things that never could take place It’s enough to leave me all alone night after night It’s enough to bring the darkness up into the light Chorus x2 See my face, it hasn’t been happy for a very long time See my heart, it can’t help who it hurts when it longs to be divine It’s enough to see my weakness in the cold light of day It’s enough to be there singing, you don’t want to fall away. Chorus x2

Scammers 03:42
lyrics
buy track
Here’s what we’ll do Take your trust from you By solving your problems When were the ones who caused them I hope you’re happy out there Masquerading to care Preying on the innocent Taking their money not spent Scammers, in my home Scammers, leave me forlorn People like you make me sick Peddling every trick Pretending to serve You’ve really got a nerve You made me feel like a fool For not cottoning on to you Yet you barely blush For the people you have crushed Chorus The repentant man will make it in the end You can be assured of this truth my friend Dust returns to dust in the grave And you’re no one if you’re not going to be saved When I ask back for my pounds and pence You’re too busy to recompense You stall and delay Till you’ve taken my hard earned pay We are a creditable organisation Saving money for the nation But it’s all just a rouse To baffle and confuse Chorus

Depths of his grace 05:24
lyrics

Open your eyes to a world anew The sun and skies shine over you All along you see the depths of his grace Been with you so near and now so far The tests of fire show who you are And all along you see the depths of his grace Don’t know how I can go on like this You were betrayed at night with a friends kiss In the day of evil no one was there to help me stand my ground I belong with you way up above In a place of perfect love And all along you see the depths of his grace What I’ve done can’t be explained I have sinned all I feel is ashamed And all along you see the depths of his grace Chorus Oh his face is shining upon us all Oh his face is shining upon us all Oh his face is shining upon us all Oh his face is shining upon us I fought and fought just to stay alive Found out how strong my will is to survive And all along you see the depths of his grace Can’t find forgiveness for what I’ve done Turned away from God’s only son And all along you see the depths of his grace Chorus

Better than this / Doom 06:52
lyrics

I can see my fate Want it to change, but it’s too late Happened back many years ago Thought by now I should know And I wanted to be better than this And I wanted to be better than this And I wanted to be better than this But I fell head over heels in doom There won’t be a next time I can’t believe my crime Thought I was doing what is right A pawn in the game of night Chorus We have to carry on Though it’s gone all wrong What can I say In a moments madness In the depths of sadness Falling away This has been planned out A calculated risk no doubt A moment there such joy Snatched away and destroyed Chorus We have to carry on Though it’s gone all wrong What can I say In a moments madness In the depths of sadness Falling away
