Teenage Fanclub Songs From Northern Britain Lyrics
1.Ain't That Enough

Lyricist:Gerard Love

If you can I wish you would
Only if you feel you should
Bring your loving over

All adds up with circumstance
All stood up with taking stands
Bring your loving over

Highlights glisten
Silence listens
Days that found you
Embrace that found you

Here is a sunrise ain't that enough
True as a clear sky, ain't that enough
Toy town feelings here to remind you
Summer's in the city do what you gotta do

Time can only make demands
Fill it up with grains of sand
Bring your loving over

Highlights glisten
Silence listens
Days that found you
Embrace that found you

And here is a sunrise ain't that enough
True as a clear sky, ain't that enough
Toy town feelings here to remind you
Summer's in the city do what you gotta do

Toy town feelings who's gonna argue
Summer's in the city summer's in the city


2.Can't Feel My Soul

Lyricist:Raymond Mcginley

What I'm seen through
Is what I've seen
What I've been through
Is what I've been

Now I've found out
What I need
Where I've been to
Is what I am

What I'm doing
Is what I can
Now I've found out
What I need

I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul
I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul

What I've found out
Is what I've found
I can't live without
Having you around

You know what I needed
I needed you

Now I've found out
What I need

I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul
I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul

I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul
I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul

I can't feel my soul
Without you, I can't feel my soul


3.I Don't Care

Lyricist:Norman Blake, Raymond Mcginley

I can't find what's on my mind
Feeling low my thoughts are slow
Monochrome till you get home
When I'm sad, when I'm sad
When I'm sad

Now I've taught my soul to grow
And over rocked this over
So I know what I need to know
Now I feel better I won't let her go

I don't care about where I'm going
Because I'll be there and so will you
I don't care about foolish knowing
Now I'm aware of what is true

I don't care about where I'm going
Because I'll be there and so will you
I don't care about foolish knowing
Now I'm aware of what is true

I don't care about where I'm going
Because I'll be there and so will you
I don't care about foolish knowing
Now I'm aware of what is true


4.I Don't Want Control Of You

Lyricist:Norman Blake

I don't want control of you
It doesn't matter to me
The very heart and soul of you
Are places I wanna see

Everyday I look in a different face
The feeling's getting stronger with every embrace

I don't want a world of pain
Staring at every tear
Don't want this love to stay the same
Growing with every year

Everyday I look in a different face
The feeling's getting stronger with every embrace

Tired of situations
That mean nothing to me
You've been an inspirational figure for me

Everyday I look in a different face
The feeling's getting stronger with every embrace

I don't want control of you
It doesn't matter to me
Don't want this love to stay the same
Growing with every year

Everyday I look in a different face
The feeling's getting stronger with every embrace


5.It's a Bad World

Lyricist:Raymond Mcginley

I, I've got a reason
To know your name
I, I've got a reason
To stay the same

I've made up my mind
Life's not unkind
It's all I can find

I, I've got a reason
To share your pain
I, I've got a reason
It keeps me sane

My souvenir
Of my time on this sphere
All I can hear

It's a bad world
A bad world
It's a bad world
A bad world

I've made up my mind
Life's not unkind
It's all I can find

It's a bad world
A bad world
It's a bad world
A bad world

It's a bad world
A bad world
It's a bad world
A bad world


6.Mount Everest

Lyricist:Gerard Love

In the highest mountain
In the only fountain
In the Russian river
With you

Heard a million singing
For a new bell ringing
Set a world in motion
With you

There's a new generation
They've been sleeping all day
Long ago when tomorrow is

So, the flow don't freeze up on this
Hope you know that tomorrow is
Still above you

Everybody's chasing
Everybody's facing
Everyone's in motion
With you

If you're chasing the morning
If you're sleeping all day
Long ago, when tomorrow is

So, the flow don't freeze up on this
Hope you know that tomorrow is
Still above you


7.Planets

Lyricist:Norman Blake

We're going over the country
And into the highlands to look for a home
We're leaving nothing behind us
And no one will find us when we're on our own

I feel the planets surround me, they gather round me

We're moving out of the city
We'll pack up the case and make for the road
Where flowing rivers will bind us
Where shadows will find us, now we're on our own

I feel the planets surround me, they gather round me
I feel the planets surround me, they gather round me


8.Speed of Light

Lyricist:Gerard Love

Drive an easy road
If you're looking for direction
Don't forget to set your seat and go

Take an easy road
All you need is information
Everything is there to know

Only you and me add up
Only you and me add up

Speed of light stars and planets
Taking over, understand it
Speed of light stars and planets
Taking over, understand it

Need a changing face
When the wind's around you blowing
Don't forget to let your feelings go

Wasting space
If you're looking for persuasion
Everything you need can grow

Only you and me add up
Only you and me add up

Speed of light stars and planets
Taking over, understand it
Speed of light stars and planets
Taking over, understand it


9.Start Again

Lyricist:Norman Blake

I don't know if you can hear me
I'm feeling down and can't think clearly

Even though it's complicated
We've got time to start again
I don't know if you can hear me

Some things I'd change but it's too late
I'd take the past and make it straight

Even though it's complicated
We've got time to start again
I don't know if you can hear me

I'm sorry for the things I've said
But some thoughts just won't leave my head

And even though it's complicated
We've got time to start again
I don't know if you can hear me

Even though it's complicated
We've got time to start again
I don't know if you can hear me


10.Take the Long Way Round

Lyricist:Gerard Love

Sunshine every beat when I'm 'round you
Feels like maybe I've been here before
Through the cold days of learning
To the soul days of yearning

Take the long way 'round
Take the long way 'round
You know when you need it
Heart begins to clear
Tell me when you've seen it

She goes any way the lights are going
She knows there's no meaning to defend
Pull the subway to the station
For that golden lights sensation

Take the long way 'round
Take the long way 'round
You know when you need it
Heart begins to clear
Tell me when you've seen it

Sometimes you underline destinations
Sometimes you try to find inspiration

Take the long way 'round
Take the long way 'round
Take the long way 'round


11.Winter

Lyricist:Norman Blake

The summer was out of sight
We couldn't sleep at night
Shadows were closing in
Back in the dark again

Basement, we didn't own
Cut off the telephone
Ceiling was falling down
Winter was underground

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

Place where the water falls
Nobody ever calls
Sky is forever clear
Road never made it here

Forests are deep and green
Like nothing we've ever seen
Heavens revolving sin
Seasons change everything

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

'Cause there are worlds
That we can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds

'Cause there are worlds
We can find
A hidden place
Is in our minds


12.Your Love Is the Place Where I Come From

Lyricist:Raymond Mcginley

Your sadness don't lie
Your feelings can't hide
You always know why
But your reasons are sly
You never deny
What you feel inside

I, I disappear when you're not here in my life

I can't slip away when I see your face
I lose my confusion
Your love is the place where I come from
When I'm on my own, I'm lost in space
My freedom's a delusion
Your love is the place where I come from

My sadness don't lie
My feelings can't hide
I just can't deny
What I feel inside

I can't slip away when I see your face
I lose my confusion
Your love is the place where I come from
When I'm on my own, I'm lost in space
My freedom's a delusion
Your love is the place where I come from

I can't slip away when I see your face
I lose my confusion
Your love is the place where I come from
When I'm on my own, I'm lost in space
My freedom's a delusion
Your love is the place where I come from
