If trouble's in your blood,
in this place of whispers,
who says it does no good,
rivers you can name,
don't need a chorus,
they flow just the same,
people say you should,
be prepared for this,
ignore them or go nuts,
they'll find another way,
to do what they insist,
their knowledge very grave,
maybe you need a hug,
sail away without a ship,
kiss rain in the dust,
act like you're here again,
speak for all of us,
crush the middle distance,
the Oceans know our name,
say farewell to diagnosis,
the worry in such limits,
rise up little Sisters. .

We claim and duly swear,
first to hit the spot,
is one whose truth hurts,
no drama or big cars,
boring debts mounting cost,
we’ll always dream afar,
under a sun’s bright stare,
the sidewalk lit with dots,
no one thinks we care,
anyone can make a mark,
others fold the cards,
who possesses easy charts,
perfumed tables lay bare,
we return from the lot,
always have to share,
danger hangs on a star,
brighter than on any cop,
burning up the tar,
we'll always shed a tear,
on streets sweaty and hot,
we’ll defend our turf,
it’s all we’ve got.

Sober enough to ask why,
the way that’s been chosen,
before anything you deny,
more a sombre space,
your mouth frozen,
tired of these phrases,
sing your favourite lines,
time's gone by with roses,
it's better when you try,
wave at all great stations,
beyond life's hopeless,
who gets shrunk or wasted,
even when the sun shines,
witness love's cloaking,
more open than the sky,
what settles on your face,
goes beyond the broken,
blows away such traces,
a paper at your side,
writer's little notebook,
simply a wish to verify,
what truth is spoken

It sometimes works a treat,
sitting around a pool,
drinking Vodka Martini,
what your head can't undo,
the bones won't fool,
a wish to be someone new,
yellow sands redeem,
everything resides in you,
scrubbed bright by the sea,
you can shake into good,
when you get the news,
no matter what the juice,
hard to feel discreet,
face the groaning crew,
lovers lay at your feet,
if your flame turns blue,
spirits haunt every venue,
let no one disguise truth,
all that’s left of equity,
cannot turn into booze,
with your sudden energy,
find that magic clue. .

Would you even care,
breaking season's pattern,
know whats beyond repair,
have you read the news,
with your open wallet,
who's in love with you,
your talk around me flares,
squeezes like I'm flattered,
despite the way things turn,
carry on that eager you,
dreaming of white satin,
never the value of truth,
stones won't buy this girl,
ships can sail forgotten,
you’ve a lot to learn,
it’s warm on this avenue,
God is not for mocking,
not one of your crew,
blue evening Autumn swirls,
you don’t see me rocking,
isn't me you've turned,
lost in falling blossom.

Do you remember the sea,
the swell and the spray,
our dance of Thebes,
now the kids have flown,
migrated far away,
have their own homes,
we dance on the beach,
at the end of Sunday,
our loving within reach,
each ring of cloud gloom,
is suddenly drained,
to horizon's quite blue,
you grab my left knee,
smile at the way,
my troubles cease,
I'm windblown happy,
I hold your face,
love this old café,
catch moments like these,
listen to what I say,
eat chips in the breeze,
watch my eyes dilate

You say that you rule,
working on the bread line,
to regard all the fools,
think you're so great,
before other's demise,
stop if it's too late,
making you cruel,
what’s going on inside,
the face of miss Cool,
look at me again,
your eyes like fireflies,
what will come your way,
it's a poor gruel,
that overlooks these lies,
maybe all you can do,
lost in this frame,
strike within time,
someone pulls your reins,
burnt out mules,
may offer you insight,
but a greater wisdom,
is being kind.
