Messin' With The Mekon
Oh, don't cross your fingers, cross your heart and soul
Don't ask me the question 'cos I just don't know
Sold by my intentions got my emotions on hold
So don't ask me why
You ask how I feel, and what it's like inside
I'm hot in pursuit, I'm bearing down on your hide
Involved in a recovery tryin' to save my pride
Don't ask me again
Wound up in circumstance beyond my control
Affairs of the heart no longer leave me cold
Oh, what a feeling such a long time ago
Don't ask me again
Get down baby, you're out of control
You leave be my side or you leave on your own
I gotta know what I should know,
Don't ask me again
So don't you ask me how I feel and what it's like inside
'Cos in the circumstances babe you don't mess with my pride
It's just recovery babe, just recovery babe
Meet me in the middle, please some give and take
Alternative arrangements are there to be made
A new proposition's not a piece of cake
So don't you ask me
Wound up in circumstance beyond my control
Affairs of the heart no longer leave me cold
Oh what a feeling such a long time ago
Don't ask me again
Wreckless Love
Now, red is urgent, green's a let off
And the score shows just another spin off
Orange dance and brown in old
Grey is weary, don't touch gold
In the fireworks, away from the heat
Behind closed doors, away from the street
No-one is listening, at least that's what you think
Cause a slow fuse burns, much faster than you think
Like the new look, all that matters
Through the last one, back in the shadows
Purple each one, yellow
Silver his wound, and don't touch gold
Dance through the coloured razzamatazz
Spin alone desert affairs
Reckless love is creeping on you
Now watch her ways
Watch out, reckless
'Cos reckless love will drive you crazy
Will wear your mind out
Creeps up on you when you don't know It'll find out, ah
Reckless love, reckless love
Oh reckless love, reckless love Oh yeah
Waste with my heart to the top of a kiss
Tried my desire to take in at your ears
Breakin' my heart for it's all I own
Crazy with my heart
Ah come on, in these times I'm alone
Crazy with my heart
Other the arms that held me so tight
Crazy with my heart
Stuck in my mind with you in the night
Feelin' reckless, feelin' reckless, reckless love
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh
Ooh reckless, oh, reckless love, reckless love
Reckless love, reckless love Reckless love, reckless love
Reckless love, reckless love Burn, oh baby burn
Feel it creepin' up on you Reckless love, reckless love
Now, now, now Reckless love, oh, oh, yeah
Come on, come on, come on, come on Reckless, get it
Reckless love, reckless love Ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes
Thru With The Two Step
Dance by me close Tell 'em, all to go
Once for the money But I'm, through with the show
An' move with me gently, Oh so slow
Hold me and maybe, oh, We'll never let go
Never let go
I'm through with sneakin' Been cutting it close
Through with the two-step, Oh Where the rhythm is lost
Through with the two-step Where the rhythm is lost
Oh, yes, it's love in any key
You opened up the door Now I know, it's got to be
Now my cards on the table, Hands on the deck (Hands opened up)
Now "A" is for able, All words spoken right (Oh, pause for breath)
My willing baby, now can't you see Little girl, it's not for me.
So you waltzed into my life, One two three
Warmth of your smile Oh, let it please be me,
Please let it be me You switch and swirl,
Oh, swing and sway
Stay till the sun comes, and, don't go away...
Don't go away, don't go away, aah
It might be cozy baby, please don't go now
And it's buy me, don't buy me baby, baby
Please don't go, oh
Oh, don't go away now baby
And it's bye, me, baby now please don't go away
And it's bye, now baby, baby
Baby, please don't go.
Horizontal Departure
And you said you'd never leave me
In fact you said you'd be my only one
I said you'd never grieve me baby
For things do when you are only having fun, fun.
You said you'd cry a river
I thought you meant you'd cry a river of tears
You'd rather die than live without me baby
But little girl you're so insincere
You know you count your blessings
But now I find that you were counting sheep, counting sheep
And then I try to court your feelings
I caught your eye and then you caught my cheek
All the trees must come to view now
And there you stood so proud the apple of my eye
You said you'd never leave me baby
But little girl that's the reason why
Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone
Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone
Let's go collect our prize now
So entertaining we were no-one no-one (number one, number one?)
The judge is hypnotized now
But after all we both fooled (bought the fool) for so damn long
So face the crowd and take a bow now, bow now
'Cos one more time and it will all be done
'Cos I must have been a show to you now baby
My next performance has just begun
Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone
Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone
Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone
Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone
Oh, Stop and think for a minute baby
As they bring the curtain down
Another drink then another, maybe
The toast might not make rounds
I chose the style, the duck and the weaving
We were famous for And here's to him, and here's to yours and
You can thank me for the floor
Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone
Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone
I don't know, so you turned around and found another fool
I don't know, so you turned around and found another
I don't know, so you turned around and found another fool
I don't know, so you turned around and found another
Stranger There ... Than Over There
Down, down, down Always make the same mistakes, again
Down, down, always down Always make the same mistake
Talk is cheap, but you're talking fast
Never take the time to think of where it will end
Walking tall, don't look back
I don't know which way it's gonna lead, me baby
I try so hard but I can't understand
Lead, me baby
Just help me get my feet on the ground
Down, down, down Wanderin' through the places that we both used to go
Round, round always round Chase me and sedate me now but don't let me go
Restless sleep, locked in my lonely room
Empty arms are waiting for the morning to come
In the deep, where my dreams come true
Take care now, keep you now, but
Lead me baby
I try so hard but I can't understand
Lead, me baby
Oh, but help me get my feet on the ground, yes, help me
Oh, help me baby, oh help me
I can't stay down for too long now baby
I can't stay down for too long now baby
No, yeah, whoa yes
If I cry (I'm crying?) well, it's, it's 'cos I'm lonely
You know I'm only ever lonely without you
If I cry well, it's 'cos I'm lonely
'Cos I can be so lonely, I can be, I can be, I can be ...
Push, push, push, ooh
Big Log
My love is in league with the freeway
It's passion will ride, as the cities fly by
And the tail-lights dissolve, in the coming of night
And the questions in thousands take flight
My love is the miles and the waiting
The eyes that just stare, and a glance at the clock
And the secret that burns, and the pain that won't stop
And it's fuel is the years
Leading me on
Leading me down the road
Driving me on, driving me down the road
My love is exceeding the limit
Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles
Distance and longing, my thoughts do collide
Should I rest for a while, on the side
Your love is cradled in knowing
Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come
Sensing to well, when the journey is done
There is no turning back, no There is no turning back, on the run.
My love is in league with the freeway
Oh, the freeway, and the coming of night-time My love,
My love, Is in league with the freeway.
Far Post (non-album track)
No talk of love between us some things better left unsaid
talk of the plans through my head, through my head
No talk of tears and pain it's been so long I really don't know your name
it's the rules of the game
Wheels keep a turning round and round
years keep a spinning round and round
No words assuring without a trace like the shadows in the sun.
No room for fools who rush it's all been done.
You've got new friends in new pools and you know they're putting troubles to the vote.
Tied eyes, slow dance in the sunlight it's all a joke.
Wheels keep a turning round and round
years keep a spinning round and round
With the passing of your time, though you seldom come to mind
I remember the day
Sure as winter follows fall, sure as maybe I will call, just remember the day.
Far off the hazy day long gone the lingered glance
Chill winds blow cold around the fire of love
Farewell the call to arms, release the captive heart
time's keeper clouds the skyline of the last resort.
Wheels keep a spinning round and round
years keep a spinning round and round
With the passing of your time, though you seldom come to mind
I remember the day
Sure as winter follows fall, sure as maybe I will call, just remember the day.
