Rockferry

Duffy Rockferry Lyrics
1.Rockferry

Lyricist:Duffy
Writer(s):Duffy

I'd move to Rockferry, tomorrow
and I'd build my house baby, with sorrow,
I'll leave my shadow, to fall behind,
And I wouldn't Write to you, 'cause I'm not that kind.

The midnight trains are boarding, all at the ends,
I pick my load and filled my truck before it's too late,
I leave the stars to judge, my every move,
I'm not going to think of you or I'll get the blues.

Theres no sleep on the journey, away from town,
A bag of songs and a heavy heart, won't make me doubt,
I give it all my strength and my mind,
I'll make this decision, win all the fights,

I'll move to Rockferry, tomorrow,
And I'll build my house baby, with sorrow,
I'll leave my shadow, To fall behind,
And I won't write to you, 'cause I'm not that kind.
Not that kind

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry

Not that kind
Rockferry


2.Warwick Avenue

Lyricist:Duffy
Writer(s):Duffy

When I get to Warwick Avenue
meet me by the entrance of the tube
we can talk things over a little time
but promise me you won't stay by the light

When I get to Warwick Avenue
please draw the best and be true
don't say we're okay just because I'm here
you hurt me bad but I won't shed a tear

I'm leaving you for the last time baby
you think you're loving but you don't love me
and I've been confused outta' my mind lately
you think you're loving but I want to be free
Baby you hurt me

When I get to Warwick Avenue oh
we'll spend an hour but no more than two
Our only chance to speak all slow
I showed you the answers now here's the door

When I get to Warwick Avenue oh
I'll tell you baby, that we're through

Cos' I'm leaving you for the last time baby
you think you're loving but you don't love me
and I've been confused now that my mind left
you think you're loving but you don't love me
I want to be free, baby you've hurt me.

All the days spent together, I wish for better
and I didn't want the train to come, now it's departed
I'm broken hearted, seems like we never started.
All those things here together, when I wished for better
And I didn't want the train to come

You think you're loving, but you don't love me
I want to be free.
Baby you've hurt me, you don't love me,
I want to be free, baby you hurt (heard) me.


3.Serious

Lyricist:duffy
Writer(s):duffy

I'm a trophy on your arm,
You wear me like a charm,
Yes you do.
An accessory that suits,
Your new suede boots,
ohhh

I get a feeling deep down, inside,
Something just aint right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show

How you really feel for me
Tell me, can we ever be,
Serious? Serious in love?

A joke on my expense,
In front of all your friends,
All the time.
A game you like to play,
Leaves me solo,
every day.

I get a feeling deep down inside,
Something just aint right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show

How you really feel for me
Tell me can we ever be,
Serious? Serious in love?

Serious? Serious in Love?

I get a feeling deep down inside ,
That something just ain't right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show

How you really feel for me,
Tell me, can we ever be, tell me,
Serious? Serious in love?

Serious,
So Serious
Serious
So Serious
Break it down
Serious
Break it down
Serious
Baby
Serious (into fade)


4.Stepping Stone

I remember way back way back when
I said i never wanna see your face again
'Cause you were loving yes you loving somebody else
And i knew oh yes i knew i couldn't control myself

And now they bring you back into my life again
And so i put on a face just like your friend's
But i think you know oh yes you know what's going on
'Cause the feelings in me oh yes in me are burning strong

But I will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright on my own

You used to call me up from time to time
And it would be so hard for me not to cross the line
The words of love layed on my lips just like a curse
And i knew oh yes i knew they'd only make it worse

And now you have the nerve to play along
Just like the mistro beats in a song
You got your kicks you get your kicks from playing me
And the less you give the more i want so foolishly

But i will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright on my own..oh

No i will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright on my own

Never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright on my own

6.Hanging On Too Long

Lyricist:duffy
Writer(s):duffy

It was just my mistake
Thinking you cared
It was just my mistake
Thinking you'd be there
That you'd be by my side
And that you wouldn't lie
My mistake

It was just my false hope
Thinking we'd last, yeah
It was just my false hope
Forgot all your pests
All those girls you denied
Smashed up hearts hung out to dry

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
But I beat 'em all
Hanging on too long

I was a fool for you
Right from the start, yeah
I was a fool for you
Hoping for a spark
For some kind of sign
That you would be mine

I know it's wrong, I do
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long

My heart was clutching
To one fair right
My head was pumping
It could put up a fight

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I need to move on
I'm hanging on too long

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long

8.Delayed Devotion

It seems you wanna give me
Oh, a life time of security
Down on your dying knees
I watch you, babe, I watch you plead

But your words come much too late
My love for you has turned to hate
'Cause you've taken too much time
To show me that you're mine

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that won't stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
You just let me wait
Now it's too late
For your delayed, delayed devotion

You try to convince me
Oh, about the possibilities
But I know that all your poetry
Just comes from insecurity

'Cause your actions speak nothing no more
When it's what I've been waiting for
'Cause you've taken too much time
To show me that you're mine

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that won't stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
'Cause you just let me wait
Now it's too late
For your delayed devotion

You played me for a fool for too long
Blinded by your lies I never saw your all
I'm no longer under your spell
Hear it in a song
You can go to Hell

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that won't stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
You just let me wait
And now its too late
For your delayed, delayed emotion


9.I'm Scared

The blank pages of my diary,
That I haven't touched since you left me,
The closed blinds in my home
See no light of day.
Dust gathers on my stereo
Cos I can't bare to hear the radio
The piano sits in a shaded space
With a picture of your face.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone and I'm scared.

Coffee stains on your favorite book
Remind me of you so I can't even look.
The magazines you left on the floor,
You won't need them anymore.

A towel left hangin on the wall,
No sign of wet foosteps in the hall
There's no smell of your sweet cologne.
I'm lying here alone.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone and now I'm scared.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone, now I'm scared.
In an instant you were gone I'm scared.


10.Distant Dreamer

Although you think I cope
My head is filled with hope
Of some place other than here

Although you think I smile
Inside all the while
I'm wondering about my destiny

I'm thinking about all the things
I'd like to do in my life

I'm a dreamer
A distant dreamer
Dreaming far hope
From today

Even when you see me frown
My heart won't let me down
Because I know there's better things to come, oh yeah

And when life gets tough
I feel I've had enough
I hold on to a distant star

I'm thinking about all the things
I'd like to do in my life

I'm a dreamer
A distant dreamer
Dreaming far hope
From today

I'm a dreamer
A distant dreamer
Dreaming far hope
From today

Yeah, I'm a dreamer
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...

I'm a dreamer
A distant dreamer
Dreaming far hope
From today

Yeah, I'm a dreamer
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...

I'm a dreamer
