Look at the moon,
a spring tide today,
everything comes around too soon,
the birds who have flown,
seeking away,
singing as they go,
your eyes don’t fool me,
say wouldn't it be great,
to find somewhere new,
a place for the soul,
where paradise reigns,
forget mortgage loans,
somewhere not cruel,
but poised and sedate,
where no ticket’s due,
problems with ‘phones,
emotion's a name,
love’s sweet merry go,
your good parts are true,
I know is the case,
but how will you argue,
flying over the flames?.

I live in a craze,
sheltered from the wind,
smooth as cellophane,
don’t try to moan,
I’ll burn holy candles,
life is only a loan,
jump every train,
scour the land,
for that perfect lane,
see my sparkling clothes,
I’ll enjoy the bland,
am not on my bones,
make a step change,
blow your ten grand,
give me love not trade,
when someone groans,
I’ll buy a caravan,
move out of that zone,
not chained to the days,
my heart expands,
It's all so great,
don't you understand?

I need another home,
somewhere to stay,
now that you’re gone,
what I need to do,
is ship out the waste,
forget about truth,
in troubled zones,
find solace in every day,
try not to feel alone,
the sea is lemon blue,
cafe's swell with rain,
they’re nothing new,
here in my bones,
I know there’s a way,
to take control,
something left to the few,
who don’t laugh and say,
sunshine kills the Blues,
brilliant pheromones,
whisper your name,
my waters groan,
I'm going today.

You smile easy,
know just what to say,
your spirits dance released,
a high heeled slumber,
stones, lintels, concave,
make you turn and wonder,
is it a lover’s retreat,
that finds no shape,
but allows you to name,
this your number,
when you state,
your life is unencumbered,
whose insides screech,
tunes jingle and play,
you run along the beach,
roll in the thunder,
forget the carapace,
stay out of trouble,
find a certain conceit,
an act full of grace,
eager to leave,
good times on your face

The love you show,
never goes to waste,
a fool in every bone,
you have no need,
to circle every day,
or save enough to flee,
in garments sewn,
by a drunken oblate,
this is all you know,
weeds, flowers, pieces,
to keep your hands engaged,
don’t need to be free,
you’ve already flown,
away from the shame,
makes you sing as you go,
a house by the sea,
tides and winter and flame,
keep you happy,
brilliant stones,
whisper your name,
you are the full blow,
they mark your passage.

You who own the night,
the wind hushed fog dunes,
do you wonder why,
you keep a cheerful home,
beat away the blues,
always on the go,
forget the bitter times,
all the cool untruths,
bars, rain, homicide,
dreams of flying solo,
always glad to see you,
since last time they phoned,
the air plashes by,
the evening's getting cool,
some wait all their lives,
others touch the stones,
kids themselves who fume,
what they had before,
men whistle passing by,
you laugh and hum a tune,
say it's stupid to lie,
you love these rooms
Ellie Three
if you knew how to give,
we wouldn't need,
these places to live,
this is no child’s game,
wound in by greed,
chasing your days,
what about the kids,
with all their surly needs,
would you cast them adrift,
golden dreams can’t negate,
smoke on the breeze,
send them away,
with all your little fibs,
think it's a wheeze,
like making a bid,
you're a fool to celebrate,
each day brings no gifts.
instead you pontificate,
living life by drips,
not a big blue sea,
where loving light trips,
but a lemon squeezed?
