1.You Know It's You
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
I want to shake up this world
And not to feel so useless
And i long to wake up happy
And not to feel so hopeless
I want arms that never held me
To pull me to my senses
And wrap themselves around me
Oh, please let it come true
There's only one thing for me
Darling, darling, darling
You know it's you.
I want someone up here beside me
To wake up in heaven with all my worries behind me
That's what i'd love to do
There is something i have seen
A vision in my dreams
Who only comes it seems to tell me
What i already knew
There's only one thing that can save me now
And baby you know it's you
Ah -- d'you ever see just what i see？
My whole life just flashed in front of me
All my fears, all my mistakes
The heart that sings before it breaks
Oh i want arms that never held me
To wrap themselves around me
And not to let me down too gently
I need something to look forward to
There's only one thing that will do
And you know darling you know it's you
2.Soho Square
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
Your name froze on the winter air
An empty bench in soho square
Forgotten now i turn away
Just save me for a rainy day
But don't be sorry
I don't want to hear it baby
My feet froze in the winter chill
I knew i'd probably get ill
But i was praying we could fill
An empty bench and still
You're so sorry
But i don't want your pity baby
It's all yours now please don't tease
The pigeons shiver in the naked trees
And i'll do anything but
Please don't hurt me
Just kiss me quick
'cos it's my birthday
And i feel so small
I don't know why
But no i'm not too old to cry
An empty bench in soho square
If you'd have come you'd have found me there
But you never did 'cos you don't care
And i'm so sorry baby
I don't mind loneliness too much
But when i met you i was touched
And that was good enough for me
But do we always have to be sorry
Why can't we just be happy baby？
One day you'll be waiting there
No empty bench in soho square
And we'll dance around like we don't care
And i'll be much too old to cry
And you'll kiss me quick in case i die
Before my birthday
One day you'll be waving there
No empty bench in soho square
No i don't know the reason why
I'll love you till the day i die
But one day you'll be waiting there
Come summertime in soho square
And i'll be painting stars up in the sky
Before i get too old to cry
Before my birthday
I hope i see those pigeons fly
Before my birthday
In soho square on my birthday
3.Angel
(kirsty maccoll)
Love's dreaming
Love's sleeping
And when it wakes again who knows
The company it's keeping
I am dreaming
I am falling
And just before i hit the ground i hear you calling
There's an angel
Floating round my house
Floating round my house
There's an angel
Floating round this house
Still dreaming
I am flying
And far above my room
I thought i heard you crying
I am calling
Come with me
Come on in and take me by the hand
Come give me what i understand
There's an angel
Floating round my house
Floating round my house
There's an angel
Floating round this house
Love's dreaming
Love's sleeping
And when it wakes again who knows
The company it's keeping
I am dreaming
I am falling
And just before i hit the ground
I hear you calling
There's an angel
Floating round my house
Floating round my house
There's an angel
Floating round this house
There's an angel
Floating round my house
Floating round my heart
There's an angel
Floating round this house
Floating round this heart
Round this head
4.Last Day Of Summer
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
I think i just recalled a time
It was not the moon and not the wine
And though you said you were a friend of mine
I never felt that way inclined
Oh the days were hot and the nights were long
I must have sung a million songs
But all the words just came out wrong
On the last day of summer
I tried to walk the line
Hoped everything would turn out fine
But i think i fell in love that time
On the last day
And then the rain came down and
Sparkled the signs of the underground
And the darkness fell all over town
On the last day
I think i dropped my guard that time
I was flesh and blood and grit and slime
And i think i may have lost my mind
On the last day of summer
I think i fell in love back there
It was tooth and nail it was bones and hair
And you'll never never know how much i cared
On the last day of summer
And though i think i fell that time
It was not the only fault of mine
But all i wanted was a sign
On the last day
I think you broke my heart that day
And nothing i could do or say
Could make the coldness go away
On the last day
The winter changes everything
And the raindrops freeze
On the signs of the underground
I wonder will you think of me
When you look up and see
There's a full moon over london town
I think i was away the day
When you said you were too smart to play
And you'd only beat me anyway
It's funny how i would have stayed
And you said you were a friend of mine
But that's not what i had in mind
I think i fell in love that time
On the last day of summer
I tried to walk the line
Hoped everything would turn out fine
But i lost the reasons and the rhymes
On the last day
And then the rain came down
And sparkled the signs of the underground
And the darkness fell all over town
On the last day
5.Bad
(kirsty maccoll)
I've been the token woman all my life
The token daughter and the token wife
Now i collected tokens one by one
'til i've saved enough to buy a gun
Now you can't get even but you can get mad
And it's not funny no and it's not sad
It's just a feeling that i've always had
Oh look out world i'm about to be bad
I want a brief encounter in a stolen car
A hand on my buttock in a spanish bar
I want to meet the man who wants to go too far
For a token of my affection
I want to taste excitement
Smell the danger
Get swept off my feet by the perfect stranger
I want to try something that i've never had
Oh look out world i'm about to be bad
I've been an awful woman all my life
A dreadful daughter and a hopeless wife
And i've had my eye on that carving knife
Oh you've been lucky so far
I'm not crazy no i'm just mad
I don't want to be sorry
No i want to be glad
It's just a feeling inside that i have always had
So look out world i'm about to be bad
6.Can't Stop Killing You
(kirsty maccoll／johnny marr)
He blew into town like a paper sack
In a stolen car with a shotgun in the back he said
She can't run now, she can't hide
I'm gonna get her back for her lies lies lies
He taught her how to pout
And he taught her how to tease
And he taught her how to beg
When she fell down to her knees he said
Your face is different
But you're really all the same
I have to teach you a lesson again and again
See i feel no pleasure
And i feel no pain
So what else can i do？
I can't stop killing you
When you're out there in the dark
I'll come rushing through your brain
When you wake up in the morning
I'll be coursing through your veins
When you're swimming in the water
I'm the hand that drags you under
I'm the lightning that strikes you
Just before you hear the thunder
I can't stop killing you
Well she woke up in the bathroom
With her face upon the floor
She said i don't know what i'm doing here
But i've been here before
And the fixit man had fixed her
'cos he's such a little hitler
And he loves the feel of power
That she gives him through her terror
I can't stop killing you
Well she looked into the mirror
And she smoked her cigarette
And she wondered where she'd go now
To find a place she could forget
All the things he said he'd do
I can't stop killing you
When you're out there in the dark
I'll come rushing through your brain
When you wake up in the morning
I'll be coursing through your veins
When you're swimming in the water
I'm the hand that drags you under
I'm the lightning that strikes you
Just before you hear the thunder
I can't stop killing you
7.Titanic Days
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
I just know
Though i can't see
But i can feel his hands all over me
His hot breath on me
I can't resist
His rope, my wrists
I never knew there might be days like this
Dream on he says
Dream on he says
Will i be saved
From these titanic days
A violent frenzy
In a none too cheap hotel
He says it's hazy
But i remember it so well
His arms, his face
The way my words got twisted out of place
Dream on he says
Dream on he always says
It's sink or swim
In these titanic days
So hot so hungry
So faretheewell goodbye
I got so angry
Now i sit here and sigh
My love, always
We should rejoice in these titanic days
Dream on he says
Dream on he says
Will i be saved
Will i be saved
Dream on he says
Dream on he says
Do you ever get that sinking feeling？
8.Don't Go Home
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
I had a dream
You walked away
You couldn't hear what i wanted to say
I had a dream
I was alone
Nowhere was mine
No one was home
Sunshine don't you wake me
Darkness come and take me
You light my life darling
You light the night
Darling don't go
I closed my eyes
You came to me
I was in love
I held a dream
Fragile and brief
A wonderful thing
Like a new leaf
But only a dream
Sunshine don't you wake me
Nighttime don't forsake me
You light my life darling
You light the night
Darling don't go
I had a dream
Whispers and sighs
Walk in the stream
Look in my eyes
Sunshine don't you wake me
Darkness come and take me
You light my life darling
You light the night
Darling don't go home
9.Big Boy On A Saturday Night
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
The last of england's spoiled brats
Grand order of the gutter rats
A big fish in a public house
You're never going to learn to shut your mouth
A silly pseudo lager lout
With nothing much to shout about
Spent hours looking in the mirror
Trying to perfect the perfect pout
Now take the spotlight
And pause for your applause
Well my oh my you're such a big boy
On a saturday night
You try but there is always something
Something not right inside
There's always someone
Somebody else to take
The power and the glory
All for themselves
With you i suffered heaven knows
Although we never came to blows
It's just as well 'cos i can tell
I would have wiped the floor with you
You don't like 'them' you don't like 'us'
You make me laugh but seriously
I look at you what do i see？
A clapped out nazi with a blunderbuss
So take the spotlight
And pause for your applause
Well my oh my you're such a big boy
On a saturday night
You try but there is always something
Something not right inside
There's always someone
Somebody else to take
The power and the glory
All for themselves
So take the stage and
Let's have a great big hand now
My oh my you're such a big boy
On a saturday night
That's when you really know they love you
When somebody else will feed your face
And kiss your arse
And wonder where the time flew past
Oh yes my darling's such a
Big boy on a saturday night
10.Just Woke Up
(kirsty maccoll／david ruffy)
Behind a burning bush he's waiting
Like a sleepless night
So silent and so strong
I know that i must push push push
Until the morning light
Don't make me wait too long
Till i open my eyes
Open the door
Take a walk outside
And feel the sun
Fall on my skin
It's time to get up
But not time to give in
I just woke up
With eyes as cold as ice cream
Floating in a frozen lake
I have to set the spark
And stroke the fire within him
Oh i have to see him smile
To have a happy heart
I opened my eyes
Walked outside and i realised
That what i saw was there before
But i opened my eyes
When i opened the door
I just woke up
One day i just woke up
I opened my eyes
Opened the door took a walk outside
And what i saw was there before
But i opened my eyes when i opened the door
I just woke up
Oh let me open my eyes
Open the door and look up to the skies
And leave the shore
And let my hand trail in the cool water
Float downstream, say goodbye to
That dream--i just woke up
I opened my eyes
I walked outside and i realised
That what i saw was there before
But i opened my mind when i
Opened the door--i just woke up
11.Tomorrow Never Comes
(kirsty maccoll／mark e. nevin)
I watch you lie asleep
Watch you breathing
And as you fall and rise
Like the tears in my eyes
I know you'll be leaving
I've earned all the pain
I suppose it was worth it
I'd do it again but i just couldn't face it
And if i see you again
You won't be the person i knew
I look to the future and see
A thousand setting suns
But tomorrow never comes
I still watch from my window
To see if you're coming
But i know in my heart
There's really no chance
You'll never stop running
It's like waiting for xmas again
It's all lost in the blink of an eye
And about all the pain
Well you know it was worth it
You could do it again but i just don't deserve it
Let us part in the rain so the clouds hide
The despair and the sorrow i feel on the inside
And let my tears dry
In the light of a setting sun
And tomorrow never comes
