Molly
Meeting in a warm cafe',
sorry outreach of worn nights,
sip warm tea and cakes,
you don’t want to hesitate,
before this coming fight,
how you’ve missed again,
over there is Lafferty,
smoking his Marlborough lights,
could make a girl happy,
he never studies the times,
says that life’s a trial,
always tries to find a way,
all your smiles are fake,
when I let loose a sigh,
just see you on the make,
why not take a train,
flip a coin see the sky,
can’t be worse than jail,
you don’t even try.

She says from on high,
is that the sea,
don’t you wonder why,
if it's all true,
she’s as bad as me,
eyes blink like jewels,
diamond suns burn bright,
with hopes of eternity,
is life really so tight,
then we’re screwed,
she arches breezily,
let’s sleep till noon,
we’ll sail the sky,
nothing else beats scrutiny,
on cold Candlemas light,
we're so sad and cool,
who expects sympathy,
when we nod like fools,
on these long flights,

Her manner’s always cool,
many a life she’s known,
wish it were yours too,
never crashing like the sea,
an artist bright unknown,
she always stays clean,
no danger of my muse,
creative but never swallowed,
being taken for a fool,
lives easy on our street,
doesn’t pray for calm,
will always lend her keys,
lipstick lemon blue,
her skin is golden brown,
she says its up to you,
maybe sees a loving need,
for those who might drown,
it brings no sense of ease,
take any path you own.

You stretch out sunny days,
smile an absent stream,
now you're on your way,
don’t bring bad news,
like a losing team,
say you know what to do,
lying in the rain,
by the Chelsea quay,
kills me to see you again,
there’s a spirit in you,
that’s hard to please,
dancing parish of broken rules,
I’ll work and save,
whatever the need,
whenever your ship sails ,
the lovers you took,
made you dream,
now you're just cool,
but something’s missing.

If you sing of hope,
without worry to the waves,
don’t need to tie ropes,
always let loose,
sing the only way,
nothing’s there to lose,
you're not such a dope,
songs will show the way,
they just soften the blows,
when you get the blues,
let others stand and shake,
one voice you own is true,
never wonder how you'll cope,
always have your say,
face them all don’t slope,
separate out what’s new,
from distant tides or sail,
always bring the new,
it’s what makes you great.

Haven
She won't take you,
without a world to gain,
what it is to lose,
scrubbed by fire,
how to remain.
free of the wire,
she doesn’t do feuds,
makes sandwiches in haste,
what's not to choose,
anyone you desire,
is hard to refrain,
you know what's for hire,
what she's been through,
is not laughed away,
your bones tell the truth,
her lips won't ask why,
to live without strain,
or forget what's the time,
spring’s here again.

Gianna
Nothing’s left to gain,
a knife to my throat,
climb another mountain,
know they'll depart soon,
blood on their boat,
bawling out their song,
I'll survive the wait,
feeling in my bones,
their sour dull taste,
won’t hear the boom,
who needs a throne,
to sink a ship of fools,
not care about their fate,
best remain unknown,
see what remains,
they’ll rescue me soon,
this is my rightfuk home,
I’m no one's dupe,
someone led to follow.
