I forget what the situation was when you came here But now I want to make it so perfectly clear I don't want you near I don't want you near Everyone's been so kind 'round here Everyone but you's been kind 'round here I forget what the situation was when I invited you Now I'm going to make it perfectly clear I don't want you near I don't want you near Everyone's been so kind 'round here Everyone but you's been kind 'round here

V. Strange Every time I've tried I have been denied It's nothing new What can I do? A nagging voice at night It's deep inside I have to get this done Get it done before someone Breaks me down again I can't afford to wait Not anymore Every time I've tried It's turned into a fight It's not alright Not a pretty sight A nagging voice at night It's deep inside I have to get this done Get it done before someone Breaks me down again I can't afford to wait Not anymore Not anymore Look what you're doing now You better stop I'm down I'm down on my knees again But nothing's more beautiful

I Will Wait The rising sun, a life begun I will wait for you A tiny cry, a loving smile You know I'll wait for you I'll wait for you, that's I'll do It's been so long But everything feels better when you're next to me Like in a dream, It's been so long But what's another thousand years When I know that you will be near I'll see you smile, your hand in mine I will wait for you I'll hear you talk, I'll feel your warmth You know I'll wait for you I'll wait for you, that's I'll do It's been so long But everything feels better when you're next to me Like in a dream, It's been so long But what's another thousand years When I know I will get to hear your laugh again I'll see your face, I'll hold your hand in mine We'll laugh again, I'll see your face I'll hold your hand in mine

Trying to Ride a Donkey Getting sentimental over things that nearly killed me when I was young I've gotten over it by now but still I feel that I am everybody's clown And I And l know I won't get younger No I won't I refuse to get much older But I feel I've been trying to ride a donkey But I feel so tired Breaking out of old routines and going back the next day Just to feel safe Ripping my old life apart and glueing it back together Just to feel safe And I And l know I won't get younger No I won't I refuse to get much older But I feel I've been trying to ride a donkey But I feel so tired And I And l know I won't get younger No I won't I refuse to get much older But I feel I've been trying to ride a donkey But I feel so tired I feel so tired

Blank Pages Summer's gone Look at all the apples on the ground It's gone Look at everything that needs to be done Look at all the books I'll need to read Look at all the records that I'll need to listen to But time will pass But time will pass And leave everything undone Autumn's past Look at all There's so many letters that I need to write send New year's past Look at all that snow in our backyard

December Isn't that the same mistake That you warned me not to make? You made a bit too much of this There's snow but see how vague it is? 'Cause December, December December's so near Now December, December December is here It's winter, everything's so slow The darkness and the fading glow Of colours of September sun Don't warm me till the winter's gone 'Cause December, December December's so near Now December, December December is here

Another Good Year Another cloudy morning, where's the sun? One might think that it has permanently gone Away, away, away from us It's gone away, away, away from us We can't expect another good year while we stay here There's no more donuts left and I feel bored The fire's gone out The fire Has gone out You knew you'd see me coming back for more But you should give some credit – After all it's you It's you It's you who's lost, not me It's you It's you who's lost We can't expect another good year while we stay here There's no more donuts left and I feel bored The fire's gone out The fire Has gone out The fire If ever there was one

What Could be Better The question arose in my mind Way back I suppose Way behind But I digress, can't seem to make a point Oh no What could be better than this, better than this No way to resist What could be better than this, better than this No way to resist Sit here and breath, you'll be alright Wait and see You'll find something that you like forget all the troubles you've been through Everything's happened so fast Everything's way too loud and bright for me to go on I don't know where I am Give me a ride back home Oh please tell me where I am It just happened so fast Everything's way too loud and bright for me to go on I don't know where I am Give me a ride back home I want to be in control

The Second Time You came into the room, I put the pen down Wasted an afternoon without you around I tried to picture myself alone in silence Opened my eyes to see, my ears to hear Tore down the fence You The second time Cleared up what's in my mind Cleared up what's in my mind You The second time You The second time You came into my life When all the shields were down Let go what once was mine Embraced what was now ours You The second time Cleared up what's in my mind Cleared up what's in my mind You The second time You The second time There's nothing complicated or mysterious about it There's nothing you could ever do to change my mind about it This is the time to let go and enjoy what's in my hands now But every bite I take tastes so much better when I see you around You The second time You The second time You The second time You The second time
