17. We Were Only Having Fun
On A Day
On a day unlike any other day
When you’re midway through the sky
And you know more than you’ve ever known
All you wanted was a lie
Now you sit quietly
Staring down at the sea
You are free to be anybody
Anybody you wanna be
On a night unlike any other night
It is alright to want more
When you see more than you’ve ever seen
Then you walk right through the door
Now you sit quietly
Staring down at the sea
You are free to be anybody
Anybody you wanna be
You are free to be anybody
Anybody you wanna be, you wanna be, you wanna be
Watching The Sky
Everyone was dancing or reeling
And the band was playing with feeling
While the rest of the world was rocking
You and I were sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
Said that you were always too shy
And everything kept passing you by
While the rest of the world was rocking
You and I kept sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
A new year was lighting the sky
And all you did was sit there and cry
And while the rest of the world was rocking
You and I kept sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
It Will Stay With Us
If you don’t wanna talk now
I won’t make a fuss
And everything that we said
It will stay with us
And if you don’t wanna see me
You won’t lose my trust
And everything that we did
It will stay, it will stay
It will stay with us
There wasn’t time to tell you
Till we turn to dust
Everything that we felt
It will stay, it will stay, it will stay, it will stay
It will stay with us
What You Wanted
Down you go
And you know it’s what you wanted
The day is shot
And you got what you wanted
But who can really say
Why you act that way
Trying to run away and disappear
But who can really say
Why you act that way
Trying to run away and disappear
It seems so strange
You don’t change what you wanted
What you wanted
What you wanted
What you wanted
While We Slept
No, I would never say
You were not here
Just yesterday
It seems so near
I know we’ll never be
Back there again
But can’t believe
That it could end
But while we slept
Life changed us
And time went by
And though where we once stood
Is still the same
It does no good
To call your name
Cause while we slept
Life changed us
And time went by
Time went by
It won’t stop now
It won’t stop now
It won’t stop now
It won’t stop now
Fool’s Paradise
It’s time, I should go
Onwards, I don’t know
It’s my own advice
But I need my fool’s paradise
Find me when you can
Come and take my hand
It’s been cold as ice
Since I left my fool’s paradise
And likely when I’m back
Wondering how to act
I won’t be thinking twice, will I
In my fool’s paradise
But now there’s no one here
You could be anywhere
The moon is just a slice tonight
In my fool’s paradise
In my fool’s paradise
In my fool’s paradise
It Will Stay With Us
If you don’t wanna talk now
I won’t make a fuss
And everything that we said
It will stay with us
And if you don’t wanna see me
You won’t lose my trust
And everything that we did
It will stay, it will stay
It will stay with us
There wasn’t time to tell you
Till we turn to dust
Everything that we felt
It will stay, it will stay
It will stay, it will stay
It will stay with us
Light As A Feather
It was never easy, nice and breezy
For me then
You seemed so bold and honest
I got so nervous holding your hand
Can we dream together
Like we did when the night was young?
I’m light as a feather
And my song has just begun
In the bright days of summer
Hiding under your straw hat
You were cold and told me never ever
Talk to you like that
Can we dream together
Like we did when the night was young?
I’m light as a feather
And my song has just begun
Can’t we make it easy?
It’s not hard
It’s not hard
Can we dream together
Like we did when the night was young?
I’m light as a feather
And my song has just begun
And my song has just begun
And my song has just begun
I Think You’re Hiding Something
Well, you could tell me
But I don’t have to know
I watch you bend when
You try to keep it low
It isn’t even that it means anything
I think you’re hiding something
And in the evening
When you come back around
You have a drink and
Keep staring at the ground
You’re like a sick bird
That’s only dying to sing
I think you’re hiding something
I think you’re hiding something
You could keep hiding
Or you could talk instead
And quell the angry mob
That’s inside your head
And I’m the only one
Who’d be listening
I think you’re hiding something
I think you’re hiding something
I think you’re hiding something
I think you’re hiding something
Had A Feeling
I can see you lying facing me
With your finger lightly tracing me
And you said to tell you honestly
Had a feeling this was meant to be
But the burning fever made me sway
It was nothing that I’d ever say
And the lava boiled into the sea
Had a feeling this was meant to be
Never did I think that I was wrong
Even when I heard your broken song
I just thought you changed invisibly
Had a feeling this was meant to be
Had a feeling this was meant to be
Don’t Wait For Me
So take it easy
I know you blame yourself
The only way I can see it
I’d have to be somebody else
Now the day is ending
The frozen rain has blown away
The cold night is beginning
And I am boung to fade away
Don’t wait for me
Don’t know how long I’ll be
Could take eternity
Maybe one day we’ll see
How I wanted us to be
You’re like a piano
All you gotta do is push a key
The arm moving the hammer
Strikes a note of melody
Don’t wait for me
Don’t know how long I’ll be
Could take eternity
Maybe one day we’ll see
How I wanted us to be
How I wanted us to be
How Can I Go?
How can I leave you?
I don’t know
Cause there’ve been so many days
So hard I thought I couldn’t stay
But how can I go?
How can I leave you?
I’ll never see
Any other place to be
Look at me walking down the street
How can I go?
And then you put me down again
Yes but sometimes you let me win
Just for the show
I never know what I might miss
Yes but it’s mad to live like this
How can I go?
I never know what I might miss
Yes but it’s mad to live like this
How can I go?
Looking Back
Looking back I don’t remember
Anything from last September
But I see your eyes still glowing
With a pain that kept on flowing
But looking back I don’t remember
There are times you seem to be here
In a dream you meet me somewhere
And you say you’re fine, don’t worry
But you move on in a hurry
And looking back I don’t remember
When the sun set on the last year
I could see it falling like a tear
And it took you down into the sea
With a kind of strange finality
And looking back I don’t remember
Everybody Knows
Everybody knows
Tells you what to do
Everywhere you go
It’s not the place for you
It’s not the place for you
Everybody thinks
They can help you through
Every word you say
They say it isn’t true
They say it isn’t true
But oh how can they say
When they only blame you when you fall
And oh what can they do for you
When they don’t know you at all
Everybody wants
To be close to you
Every time you go
They don’t know what to do
They don’t know what to do
But oh what can they say
When they only blame you when you fall
And oh what can they do for you
When they don’t know you at all
JAPAN ONLY BONUS TRACKS:
In Two Places
Lost in time that’s gone
Always halfway there
Nowhere
In two places at once
And never either one
Somewhere
Like a boat retreating
From tall waves beating
I stay
You push the ghosts back behind
In time they stilll appear
So clear
Like a boat retreating
From tall waves beating
I stay
I stay
We Were Only Having Fun
We were only having fun
So tell me why is everyone
Oh so serious so stern
With looks as if their house just burned
What’s done is done
And we were only having fun
But listen to them howl like dogs
Hiding back there in the fog
With no idea where we’ve been
They only say that it’s a sin
What’s done is done
And we were only having fun
We were only lost inside
So we found a place to hide
Everyone says time moves fast
Don’t you know that this can’t last
But I don’t ever think of time
Until the clock stops on a dime
What’s done is done
And we were only having fun
What’s done is done
And we were only having fun
