Come Talk To Me
The wretched desert takes its form, the jackal proud and
tight
In search of you, I feel my way, though the slowest heaving
night
Whatever fear invents, I swear it make no sense
I reach through the
border fence
Come down, come talk to me
In the swirling, curling storm
of desire unuttered words hold fast
With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes
towers built to last
Darkness creeps in like a thief and offers no relief
Why
are you shaking like a leaf
Come on, come talk to me
Ah please talk to
me
Won't you please talk to me
We can unlock this misery
Come on,
come talk to me
Chorus 1:
I did not come to steal
This all is so
unreal
Can't you show me how you feel now
Come on, come talk to
me
Come talk to me
The earthly power sucks shadowed milk from
sleepy tears undone
From nippled skin as smooth as silk the bugles blown as
one
You lie there with your eyes half closed like there's no-one there at
all
There's a tension pulling on your face
Come on, come talk to
me
Won't you please talk to me
If you'd just talk to me
Unblock this
misery
If you'd only talk to me
Chorus 2:
Don't you ever change
your mind
Now your future's so defined
And you act so deaf and
blind
And you act so deaf so blind
Come on, come talk to me
Come
talk to me
I can imagine the moment
Breaking out through the
silence
All the things that we both might say
And the heart it will not be
denied
'Til we're both on the same damn side
All the barriers blown
away
I said please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just
like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me
I did not come to steal
This
all is so unreal
Can you show me how you feel now
Come on, come talk to
me
Come talk to me
I said please talk to me
If you'd just talk to
me
Unblock this misery
If you'd only talk to me
Chorus

Love To Be Loved
So, you know how people are
When it's all gone much too
far
The way their minds are made
Still, there's something you should
know
That I could not let show
That fear of letting go
And in this
moment, I need to be needed
With this darkness all around me, I like to be
liked
In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be
loved
I love to be loved
Yes, I love to be loved
I cry the way
that babies cry
The way they can't deny
The way they feel
Words, they
climb all over you
'Til they uncover you
From where you hide
And
in this moment, I need to be needed
When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be
liked
In this emptiness and fear,
I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be
loved
I love to be loved
Oh I love to be loved
This old familiar
craving
I've been here before, this way of behaving
Don't know who the hell
I'm saving anymore
Let it pass let it go let it leave
From the deepest place I
grieve
This time I believe
And I let go
I can let go of
it
Though it takes all the strength in me
And all the world can see
I'm
losing such a central part of me
I can let go of it
You know I mean it
You
know that I mean it
I recognize how much I've lost
But I cannot face the
cost
'Cause I love to be loved
Yes I love to be loved
I love to be
loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
Yes I love to be
loved
Blood Of Eden
I caught sight of my
reflection
I caught it in the window
I saw the darkness in my heart
I saw
the signs of my undoing
They had been there from the start
And the darkness
still has work to do
The knotted chord's untying
They're heated and they're
holy
Oh they're sitting there on high
So secure with everything they're
buying
Chorus:
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the
man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood
of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Oh the union
of the woman
The woman and the man
My grip is surely slipping
I
think I've lost my hold
Yes, I think I've lost my hold
I cannot get insurance
anymore
They don't take credit, only gold
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I
see
You hold so tightly in your hand
And all the while the distance grows
between you and me
I do not understand
Chorus
At my
request, you take me in
In that tenderness, I am floating away
No certainty,
nothing to rely on
Holding still for a moment
What a moment this is
Oh
for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss
I can hear the distant thunder
Of a million unheard souls
Of a million unheard
souls
Watch each one reach for creature comfort
For the filling of their
holes
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the
man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
We
wanted the union
Of the woman and the man
In the blood of
Eden
Lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman
And the
woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the
man
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In
the blood of Eden
We've done everything we can
In the blood of
Eden
Saw the end as we began
With the man in the woman
And the
woman in the man
It was all for the union
Oh, the union of the woman, the
woman and the man.
Film Mix extra lyrics
The blood
of eden keeps running through me
running through my veins
the blood of
eden keeps rushing through me
when I'm sure there's none that remains
the
blood of eden keeps running through me
I can feel it in my bones
that blood
of eden keeps rushing through me
taking back what it owns
Steam
Stand Back!
Stand Back!
What are those
dogs doing sniffing at my feet
They're on to something, picking up
Picking
up this heat, this heat
Chorus 1:
Give me steam
And how you feel
to make it real
Real as anything you've seen
Get a life with this dreamer's
dream
You know your culture from your trash
You know your plastic
from your cash
When I lose sight of the track
You know the way
back
But I know you
You know your stripper from your paint
You
know your sinner from your saint
Whenever heaven's doors are shut
You kick
them open but
I know you
Chorus 2:
Give me steam
And how
you feel to make it real
Real as any place you've been
Get a life with the
dreamer's dream
Stand back!
Stand back!
Can't you see I've lost
control I'm getting indiscreet
You're moving in so close 'til I'm picking
up
Picking up this heat, this heat
Chorus 1
You know your
green from your red
You know the quick from the dead
So much better than
the rest
You think you've been blessed
But I know you
You know
your ladder from your snake
You know the throttle from the brake
You know
your straight line from a curve
You've got a lot of nerve
But I know
you
Chorus 2
Everybody nosedive
Hold your breath, count to
five
Backslap, boobytrap,
Cover it up in bubblewrap
Room shake,
earthquake
Find a way to stay awake
It's going to blow, it's going to
break
This is more than I can take
Oh yeah, I need steam
Feel the
steam all around me
Ah you're turning up the heat
When I start to dream
aloud
See you move your hands and feet
Won't you step into this cloud of
steam
This steam
Chorus 1
Help me yeah
Ready to steam
out the log jam
Stir crazy from the freezer to the boil
Water's bubbling, it's
bubbling
bubbling
like it's coming to a boil
Give me steam,
lady
Give me steam around me now
Aah coming alive
Said give me
some steam
Only Us
Only Us
It wasn't
in the words that kept sticking in their throats
It wasn't with the angels in their
quilted coats
These battered wings still kick up dust
Seduced by the noise
and the bright things that glisten
I knew all the time I should shut up and
listen
And I'm finding my way home from the great
escape
Chorus:
The further on I go, oh the less I know
I can find
only us breathing
Only us sleeping
Only us dreaming
Only us
I
hear you calling me
Yes I hear you calling me
Home from the great
escape
Yes I can read you loud and clear
The further on I go, oh the less
I know
Friend or foe, there's only us
Chorus
I'm coming home
again, home again
And I hear you calling me home again
I am coming home
again
Only us
Washing Of The Water
River, river carry me on
Living river carry me on
River, river
carry me on
To the place where I come from
So deep, so wide, will you
take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep
inside
River, show me how to float
I feel like I'm sinking
down
Thought that I could get along
But here in this water
My feet won't
touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around
Going away,
away towards the sea
River deep, can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on
though the heartland
'Til the sun has left the sky
River, river carry me
high
'Til the washing of the water make it all alright
Let your waters reach
me like she reached me tonight
Letting go, it's so hard
The way it's
hurting now
To get this love untied
So tough to stay with thing
'Cause if I
follow through
I face what I denied
I get those hooks out of me
And I
take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
Kill that fear of emptiness,
loneliness I hide
River, oh river, river running deep
Bring me something
that will let me get to sleep
In the washing of the water will you take it all
away
Bring me something to take this pain away
Digging In The Dirt
Something in me, dark and sticky
All
the time it's getting strong
No way of dealing with this feeling
Can't go on
like this too long
Chorus:
This time you've gone too far
I told you
This time you've gone too far
I told you
Don't talk back
Just
drive the car
Shut your mouth
I know what you are
Don't say
nothing
Keep your hands on the wheel
Don't turn around
This is for
real
Digging in the dirt
Stay with me, I need support
I'm digging in the
dirt
To find the places I got hurt
Open up the places I got hurt
The
more I look, the more I find
As I close on in, I get so blind
I feel it in my
head, I feel it in my toes
I feel it in my sex, that's the place it
goes
Chorus
I'm digging in the dirt
Stay with me I need
support
I'm digging in the dirt
To find the places I got hurt
To open up
the places I got hurt
Digging in the dirt
To find the places we got
hurt
Fourteen Black Paintings
From
the pain come the dream
From the dream come the vision
From the vision
come the people
From the people come the power
From this power come the
change
Kiss That Frog
Jump in the water
Sweet little princess
Let me introduce
his frogness
You alone can get him singing
He's all puffed up, wanna be your
king
Oh you can do it
C'mon
Lady kiss that frog
Splash,

Bring you back your golden ball
He's gonna dive down

One tiny little touch
Ah, he's wanting it so much

Running through my skin
Oh can you see the state I'm

Eat right off your plate

Jump in the water, c'mon

Jump in the water, c'mon baby get wet
Secret World
I stood in this
sunsheltered place
'Til I could see the face behind the face
All that had gone
before had left no trace
Down by the railway siding
In our secret world,
we were colliding
All the places we were hiding love
What was it we were
thinking of?
So I watch you wash your hair
Underwater,
unaware
And the plane flies through the air
Did you think you didn't have to
choose it
That I alone could win or lose it
In all the places we were hiding
love
What was it we were thinking of?
In this house of make
believe
Divided in two, like Adam and Eve
You put out and I
receIve
Chorus:
Down by the railway siding
In our secret world,
we were colliding
In all the places we were hiding love
What was it we were
thinking of?
Oh the wheel is turning spinning round and round
And the
house is crubling but the stairways stand
With no guilt and no shame, no
sorrow or blame
Whatever it is, we are all the same
Making it up in our
secret world
Shaking it up
Breaking it up
Making it up in our secret
world
Seeing things that were not there
On a wing on a prayer
In
this state of disrepair
Chorus
Shh,
listen...
