Glow

Reef Glow Lyrics
1.Summer's In Bloom

When I was younger than now I am, I liked swimming, so I swam,
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane, tarmac broken from sun,
Up the grass came, up willow I would climb to the top,
Hang and watch the water drop, from my feet to the river below,
Young strength finally waned, then I followed,
I love that glow and now I know:

Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
Light her up, let her fill the room,
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.

Off to mugdley about the years end, I shout up: 'let's have a
swim!'
I expect all my friends to say 'no', they agree so in we go!
I got a stinging nettle rash for it, but I'm so very happy that
I did,
I never ever ask why, I don't care why, I just know that:

Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
Light her up, let her fill the room,
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.

When I was younger than now I am, I liked swimming, so I swam,
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane, tarmac broken from sun, up
the grass came.
The winter evening that I came home, found out that my girl had
gone!
My father's eye told of a place that he'd been,
Strong women play their own tune.

Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
Light her up, let her fill the room,
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.


2.Yer Old

Hide away boys you're no longer in favour,
You're yesterdays news and no longer the flavour,
You're washing my mouth, now you shining my shoes,
Don't need me the paper, to read me the news.
Yer old.

Speak ill of my boys and I'll take you to pieces,
So come face to face if you think I don't mean it,
You're swanning about like you're nobody's fool,
You've shown me the place but I don't want to go,
Yer old.

So what you gonna do?
I wish you would come and tell me.
So what you gonna do?
You're the problem, now you solve it,
So what you gonna do?
I'm the judge and your opinion,
So what you gonna do?

Hide away boys you're no longer in favour,
You're yesterdays news and no longer the flavour,
Yer old.

Now hear me it was the easiest day of my life,
It was the easiest day of my life.


3.Don't You Like It?

Well I'm a young man, of no particular persuasion,
I like silence, as much as I like conversation,
Don't be scared of some of the things they're saying,
Because it's a Godsend, but not enough people are praying.

Don't you like it when I'm high?
Well I don't care - oh yeah.

I'm not bothered, about representing your nation,
So please be gentle, and do not forget relaxation,
It's the time! Time for beating the one that you're scared of,
It's the time of year, for being the one that you're thinking
of.

Don't you like it when I'm high?
Well I don't care - oh yeah.

Hey! Hey you, come here, come here right now,
Said I'm a young, I'm a young man.

Don't you like it when I'm high?
Well I don't care - oh yeah.

Hey stop whining,
See I'm still smiling,
I don't care oh yeah.


4.Place Your Hands

Oh place your hands, on my hope,
Run your fingers through my soul,
And the way that I feel right now,
Oh Lord it may go.

So place your hands, on my hope,
Run your fingers through my soul,
And the way that we feel right now,
Oh Lord it may go.

Put your hands on, put your hands on. (x4)

You know you cannot hide, from what's inside,
You know you cannot hide, from what's inside.
So I ask of you to help me through,
I ask of you this thing to do.

Put your hands on, put your hands on. (x2)

So lay me down, for a while,
Join my body with my mind,
And I cried at the Common One,
For weeks aft' he died.

Put your hands on, put your hands on. (x4)

And the way that we feel right now,
Oh Lord it may go.


5.Wierd

In my arms, and my legs, and my fist, and my shoulders,
and my neck to my feet, in my brain...
Must I shout to be heard, heard by you and your kind.
In your offices all around, this I know, for...

It's a weird feeling friend,
And I can't understand it at all.

Speak of me when I'm dead, with your hand on my face.
All those memories that besott you, waste a life, your so...

It's a weird fucking feeling friend,
And I don't wish it upon no-one, come on...
Come on...

In the morning when we wake, we go down to the place.
When we get there we kick a ball, we kick a ball in the car.
Start to make me feel alright.
Start to make me feel alright, feel alright.
Put a little smile on my face.

CHEERS SEE YA!


6.Come Back Brighter

Been down, but I've come back brighter,
Sun hurts me, if I try to fight her,
I won't be sat here waiting,
I won't be sat here waiting,
I won't be sat here waiting for it,
So come and take me on.

Sometimes, the black hole's inside ya,
But if you can just lighten up yourself,
It will make you stronger,
I won't be sat here waiting,
I won't be sat here waiting,
I won't be sat here waiting for it,
So come and take me on.

Get up...
I've been down, but I've come back brighter,
Sun hurts me, if I try to fight her,
I won't be sat here waiting, (x3)
For you, so come and take me,
So come and take me on and on and on...

I've been down...


7.Lately Stomping

Lately, I have not been treated gently by myself.
I have been over used, ripped off and abused,
Stomping in my shoes, well no more!

Think of your family, home is the place to be,
Think of your family once more.

Lately, all my clothes have been so dirty and threadbare.
They have been over used, my heart battered and bruised,
Thankless for my views, well no more.

Think of your family, home is the place to be,
Think of your family once more.

Been around the world, and there is nothing that I wouldn't do,
Just to see the smile upon your face.

Think of your family, home is the place to be,
Think of your family once more.


8.I'm Not Scared

Hey there! Won't you give me a smile,
I've not seen one in a while,
I think you'd look better smiling,
Here I come - step away,
There's a message on my face,
I'll tell you just what it's saying,
I'm not scared.

It's the same everyday,
Oh it seems such a waste,
Please tell me who are you fighting?
So then won't you give me a smile?
I've not seen one in a while,
I'm sure you'd look better smiling,
I'm not scared.

And I walk through the land,
With a bond in my hand,
For the people who spurned,
I will look at each turn,
With my arms opened out,
To you all I will shout:
'I'm not scared'.


9.Lullaby

For your lady, something sweet,
A lullaby before she sleeps,
And if your lady should awake,
You'll hold he in your arms again, again.

For your children, something sweet,
A lullaby before they sleep,
And if your children should awake,
You'll hold them in your arms again, again.

It soon will be morning,
It soon will be morning again.

For your good self, something sweet,
A lullaby before you sleep,
And if you still should awake,
Then you will see the break of day,
Again, again, again, again.


10.Consideration

I don't think that kindness is a weakness,
I don't have a problem with compassion,
Tell me what you're thinking?
Would you like to be so high?

Could you give consideration to something that you did not
realise?
Would you close your ears to the things you did not believe?

Tell me would you be strong?
Would you be the one to carry on?
Tell me would you be strong?
Would you be one to carry on.

Half don't come here, half don't come here,
half don't come here, so I do.
It's gonna be alright.


11.I Would Have Left You

Won't you give pictures of you?
We'll go out, lounge by the pool,
After the sun has baked us through,
We'll retreat to the bedroom.

I would have left you babe,
I would have left you babe, if I only could.

When we are where we should be,
There'll be no questions in me,
After all was said before,
You came and grabbed some more.

I would have left you,
I would have left you babe,
I would have left you babe, if I only could.


12.Robot Riff

Look at all the life on the earth,
Look at all the life on the earth,
You got yours and I got mine at birth,
Look at all the life on the earth,
Is that all you thought you were worth?
Is that all you thought you were worth?
Wake up now for you're alive tonight,
Loosen up, you're holding on too tight,
Look at all the murder,
Look at, look at, look at, look at, look at,
Look at all the murder,
Brother we can make it but we won't make it alone.


13.Higher Vibration

Hey - I won't grab your energy,
So - won't you do the same for me,
So give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,
Hey - I won't grab your energy,
Because I'm looking for a higher vibration.

Hey - don't you tell me you can't feel this,
When the rain came down but it was warm,
You could see it in the green.
Because I'm looking for a higher vibration,
So won't you give it to me.
