Iona
Don't let the doom crew,
turn out make it seem,
you'll always sing the Blues,
cold weather flowers live alone,
don't know dis ease,
they always find a home,
even if the wind rocks cruel,
it won't stop your dreams,
you'll always lose a few,
come here and bellow,
scream astride the moonlit sea,
nothing bites a loving tone,
our dark days feud,
is now just history,
you always bring good news,
even after days of feud,
stay with me,
forget the curfew,
you laugh the way you do,
it’s not from the heat,
no desert frightens you,
it's what you believe.
an escape from a disease
something you can clean
say it's not just you,
famed, broken, ill at ease,
you ignore all the signs,
believe what you believe,
to wrap around your misery,
those whispered prayers at night,
thrown across the lee,
the terms you foresee,
becomes heaven's insight,
lawyers act with speed,
what gave you the right ?
does what she can alone.
a river rises all alone,
beyond any time zone,
the running line of alcohol,
a time to stay alone,
a wolf howl at the moon,
not like coming home,
who knows where's the flame,
a trapeze of broken runs,
does our soul work this way,
how can i fasten fame,
acting like some walking tomb,
can we ever really say,
what makes a country tune ?
you dance and fade
stand before the enemy,
a terrible supplies of energy,
vodka tonics citrus cool
who needs reason,
bags weigh heavy at night,
it's fun being away,
we won't ever concretely,
inquire about pain,
a long silent right,
take a train,
you who'd sat and tread,
a lonely path alone,
not having a sou to spend,
ost like Zeus in his head,
listening to stones,
i only read in bed,
send me ahead.
,
this horizon so bright,
or a sail on the lee,
this way there's no stain,
so far we're right,
who needs reason,
bags weigh heavy at night,
it's fun being away,
we won't ever concretely,
inquire about pain,
a long silent right,
take a train,
you who'd sat and tread,
a lonely path alone,
not having a sou to spend,
ost like Zeus in his head,
listening to stones,
i only read in bed,
send me ahead.
,
December in warm climes,
find an Ocean to lie in,
if they think that crass,
consider them gone,
you're not perturbed,
dancing on brown chairs,
when you tell lover's lies,
s
on the lilac,
whoever make me plead,
wave goodbye to dreams,
she has me all alone,
my turn now to bleed,
always opens the gate
they ask, the ghosts,
sat on bar stools bereft,
you never throw stones
What you created,
with me as your creed,
leaves me prostrate,
a tune with broken tones,
in that sixties scene,
when you left home,
you didn't hesitate,
to polish the chrome,
the moon hesitates,
it knows where she's been,
the wind going boom
hold the clock chimes,
run outside the room,
live generous lives,
like you never rue,
brave enough it rests nearby,
what settles on the breeze
to rescue God or try,
brush away disease,
laugh at why you're cold,
what has come to be,
dance on love you sigh,
sing that song you sold,
growl it like a lullaby,
before you die
you're no salamander.
.panic shall not reign
who holds their reins?
best not to moan,
keep hold of your creed,
by Calendar or the sea,
take Cium
the bird who has flown,
it was only fame,
singing as she goes,
drunk as a fiery contralto,
dance amongst flames,
problems the wind blows,
the love that was shown,
dissolves gives way,
all that you owned,
keeps you engaged.
cafe's swell with rain,
best not to moan,
keep hold of your creed,
don't let panic reign,
like a hurricane zone,
try to circle the domes,
we are leaving Salerno,
you have got my tone
knowing not enough to see,
would you let her tumble,
tired of this campaign,
across this shining bite,
that gives no easy news,
against the water's might,
the Americas of circue.
by mountains and ruins,
lovers only hesitate
she never left a family’s gate,
but came here to sing,
a woman who knows she's great,
that beckons any time,
next to me like a bride,
around a constant why,
the land within our sight,
an old man and his wife,
a voyage for the rate,
set your almond eyes
birds sing out of tune
drain summer into June
sweep up with the moon
not present castigate,
hope on a midnight wire,
we are not alone
in this lasting light,
home provides no clue,
God knows of your plight,
don't try to collude,
say your cards are marked,
you're never that far,
to stay where you are,
in a warm hazy fog,
and a veil across your face
don't send me to Mars,
from where you perorate.
when you geniflect

Isobel
A broken tort on my knees,
will you take the child,
can't you let us be,
when you bring this news,
fury in your smile,
say it's not just you,
famed, broken, ill at ease,
you ignore all the signs,
believe what you believe,
even if not true,
a power beyond my sight,
you always claim the virtue,
to wrap around your misery,
those whispered prayers at night,
thrown across the lee,
the terms you foresee,
becomes heaven's insight,
lawyers act with speed,
before you came for me,
asked to carry the light,
of love across the sea,
what gave you the right ?

Love holds the door ajar,
your hair falls down the line,
you don't get very far.
but sit around a Pool
trees blend wave in time,
who needs their news,
or ask about your Da,
just another wine,
lonely as a shooting star,
the money he tooled,
in a poor jaded light,
sunshine just for fools,
home another car,
furnished by mother's cries,
no room for chairs,
swear you're no fool,
to forget the hurt inside,
or that other part of you,
that sits on the bar,
and sees the morning rise
hit the highway burning tar,
do you raise your eyes?

Irish
A winter of religious scenes,
she dabs at another frame,
stands without belief,
regards the bottle, men she's honed,
stay away from that game,
doubtful if she's ever alone,
in yellow nights of dreams,
even if she looks the same,
it's not what it seems,
the canvas lets her be,
painting's like a wooden nail,
a matchstick in the sea,
in many ways she's gone,
lost within her name,
the work is not her own,
the pull of certain Liberty,
never really eases the pain,
her body ticks with heat,
deep burnt eyes this day,
her work sets her free,
even if she has no energy,
she's knows no other way.

Irene
You crossed the street,
things are never the same,
salt is on the breeze,
danger comes towards my eyes,
Hollywood's in your gaze,
no need to ask why,
smell of perfume from the seat,
chasing glory these days,
the woman you want to be,
how you make the line,
you won't be tamed,
even if i hold a knife,
the place to set you free,
a jewel for your days,
silken on an easy sea,
outside fire's odyssey,
someone to chant your name,
fire without reason,
being true is never easy,
especially on your campaign,
don't gild the lily,
celebrity is no child's game.

Who can resist,
or diminish your flame,
sometimes in a wayward kiss,
hidden by canyons and scree,
a terrible supply of waste,
men drool at your feet,
beware those who can hit,
you turn to me and say,
am i being remiss,
the hollows tick with heat,
sunshine grants them little space,
a wind is worth seeing,
let them all go hiss,
you say again,
rage will absolve us,
for everything we miss,
we'll see off troubles again,
they'll fall off the list,
uncertain questions,
shoved or tossed away,
fools seeking justice,
we hold the reins.
Harriet
All that is behind you,
sits stunned around a Pool,
vodka tonics citrus cool,
on yellow sand you redeem,
all that hides from you,
scrubbed by the sea,
it's hard to be discreet,
what you've been through,
so why not laugh easy,
what your bones can't undo,
or your tongue can't fool,
you won't delude,
trees of a green beach,
who carry the news,
sung on a gentle breeze,
you stand before the enemy,
he tempts you with a brew,
his terrible supplies of energy,
he won't break your mood,
a banshee wail of what to do,
what it is to lose,
your fire turns blue.
