The Blue Nile Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.From Rags To Riches

Lyricist:Robert Bell, Paul Gerard Buchanan

I leave the home of a lifetime like any son
I have hope and good intentions
And wandering into the daybreak, I learn as I go
To fall laughing into the water

The sticks and the stones are your broken promises
We wait too long to go from rags to riches

I am in love, I am in love with a feeling
A wild, wild sky, a wild, wild sky
Fences and tumble down bridges surround and divide
I wear a coat of many colors, of many colors

The sticks and the stones, our broken promises
I wait no longer to go from rags to riches

People are leaving the squalor
They're leaving the houses and fires
And starting out
We find the waiting country

The sticks and the stones are your broken promises
I wait no longer, I go from rags to riches
From rags to riches, I go from rags to riches
Go from rags to riches, from rags to riches


2.Heatwave

Lyricist:Robert Bell, Paul Gerard Buchanan

You live beneath another star
You are pretending love is worth waiting for
You always breathe another air
The rivers in the distance must be leading somewhere

Heatwave
Heatwave
Why is it rolling down
On the young and foolish?

Heatwave
Heatwave
Are we rich or poor?
Does it matter anymore?
Heatwave

Can this be all we will desire?
Straw houses in the promised land
Why is it time for taking sides?
When all I say and do is take too many chances

Heatwave
Heatwave
Why is it rolling down
On the young and foolish?

Heatwave
Heatwave
Are we rich or poor?
Does it matter anymore?
Heatwave

Will I tell you?
Will you listen?
If I tell you
What will happen?

Heatwave
Heatwave
Why is it rolling down
On the young and foolish?

Heatwave
Heatwave
Are we rich or are we poor?
Does it matter anymore?
In a heatwave

Heatwave
Heatwave
Why is it rolling down
On the young and foolish?

Heatwave
Heatwave
Are we rich or are we poor?
Does it matter anymore?
In a heatwave


3.Tomorrow Morning

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

This may not last until tomorrow
So look at all the love you borrow
And time will tell us all
We could be laughing
We could be married
Tomorrow morning

And love alone won't be your savior
And pretty soon you'll find it's over
And time has left you there
We could be singing
Could be together
Tomorrow morning

Show me only sunrise
Say you'll love me and then
Say you'll love me, ooh
Sugar rain
Tomorrow morning

And love alone won't be your savior
And pretty soon you'll find it's over
And time has left you there
If it's not easy
It must be summer
If it's not love
Then I don't know
Tomorrow morning

Come on, girl
Hey
Hey
Blue skies, water, desert, yeah yeah
Ooh, tomorrow morning


4.Easter Parade

Lyricist:Robert Bell, Paul Gerard Buchanan

The line of traffic comes to a stand still
For the love King, out in the morning air
I find a place I started from
The wild is calling, this time I follow

Easter parade

In the bureau typewriter's quiet
Confetti falls from every window
Throwing hats up in the air
A city perfect in every detail

Easter parade

I know you, birthday cards and silent music
Paperbacks and Sunday clothes

In hallways and railway stations
Radio across the morning air
A crowd of people everywhere
And then the people, all running forward

Easter parade


5.The Days Of Our Lives

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

She lives in a house in London
She lives in a house in town
And waiting to greet the children
She sits around in her dressing gown

Are these the days?
Are these the days?
Are these the days?

He drives through the morning traffic
Sideways and up and down
Says, 'The girls are so tragic
In every provincial town'

Are these the days?
Are these the days?
Are these the days of our lives?

Are these the days?
Are these the days?
Are these the days of our lives?

Are these the bells that chimed and ring?
The wedding days, the children sing
Please do not throw confetti
Please do not throw confetti on the ground

Living in every city
Amongst somebody else's clothes
Christmas trees without Angels
Wiping my bloody nose

Are these the days?
Are these the days?
Are these the days of our lives?

Are these the days?
Are these the days?
Are these the days of our lives?

An ordinary miracle
Is all we really need
An ordinary miracle
You and me


6.From A Late Night Train

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

From a late night train, reflected in the water
When all the rainy pavement, lead to you
It's over now, I know it's over but I can't let go

The cigarettes, the magazines all stacked up in the rain
There doesn't seem to be a funny side
It's over now, I know it's over but I can't let go

From a late night train, the little towns go rolling by
And people in the station going home
It's over now, I know it's over but I love you so


7.Broken Loves

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

I feel exactly like a matchstick in relation to you
Thin and broken

Nothin' I can seem to do
Make you switch the TV off
Oh look up

Sail away, sailin' away from me also
I count your sticks and all your toys
You're laughin' in the background noise
We won't give up
I'm gonna give you somethin' else
That's some kind of broken loves

Children swing to and fro
Do you ever wonder, where did the summer go?
Countin' the TV's and countin' the stars
It's so litle unfunny I don't know where you are anymore
I don't know where you are anymore

Sail away, sail on back to me envy
I count your sticks and all your toys
Your laughter in the background noise
Please don't give up
I am gonna promise you somethin' else
There's some kind of broken loves, yeah broken loves
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Sail away, sail on back to me and then
I'll keep your sticks and all your toys
And I'll keep you in the background noise
Yeah we don't give up
And I'm gonna find you somethin' else
Like some kind of broken loves, broken loves

Broken loves, broken loves


8.Because of Toledo

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

Because of Toledo
I got so worried and stayed clean
The pick ups in the wild prairies
The shadows dancing in between
Girl leans on the jukebox in a pair of old blue jeans
Says, 'I live here but I don't really live anywhere'

Because of Toledo
Tuesday it's raining and I'm pulling on my shoes
I guess I quit believing in the early morning news
There's a boy who orders coffee and he settles down to think
How the women that you love sometimes are the water that you
drink
Then another faded waitress dressed in pink cries for Toledo

The lipstick and the cocaine traces
One face in a thousand faces
I stumble through so many places
'Cause of Toledo

Yeah
Yeah yeah
(Oh)
Yeah
Yeah yeah

Because of Toledo
The highway looks so thin I see another motel sign
I think of pulling in, write your name upon the mirror there
The only secret that I know
But I guess that I'd be only chasing rainbows
Back to Toledo I think I'll go


9.She Saw The World

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

Oh yea, alright, I know now
Everythin' stops here
You don't love me
I am a street that you live on
With people walking towards me
An' a girl up a bus stop
Reading postcards from nowhere
It feels like a movie

She saw the world and she wanted it all
What can I tell you?
She saw the world and she wanted it all

Gangsters in traffic, surround you
And up on the rooftops
Yeah, she's waving
It doesn't seem to matter anymore

She saw the world and she wanted it all
She saw the world and she wanted it all

Letters an' numbers, surround you
And out on the corner
A policemen is sending flowers
It feels like a movie

She saw the world and she wanted it all
What can I tell you
She saw the world and she wanted it all
What can I tell you?
She saw the world like a silver ball
What can I tell you?
She saw the world and she wanted it all
She wanted it all, yeah
Yeah

Stop bringing me down, stop bringing me
Stop bringing me down, stop bringing me
Stop bringing me down, stop bringing me
Stop bringing me down, stop bringing me
Can I tell you?
What can I tell you?


10.High

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

I don't wanna wake you
When you sleepin' so quiet
The motorcycle goin' by outside
Are we the same?
Caught at the lights
Why are we goin' home with our lies?

In the bowling alleys
In the easy living
Something good got lost along the way

We could be high
We could be higher
We could be high
Yeah yeah yeah
I wanna make you understand
We could be higher

Look at the mornin' people
Goin' to work and fadin' away
Look at the mornin' people
Goin' to work and fading away

Look at the mornin' people
Goin' to work each day

We could be high

Yeah, I have wandered from place to place
And I have raised my weary hand
To my face

But I would never
Turn my back
On your love

Is there anybody there who knows me?
Is there any body there who knows now?
That I will, will be home soon

And I would never
Turn my back
On your love

When the sun is goin' down
And there are colors against the sky
I have seen my home town
In your eyes

But I would never
Turn my back

A new situation begins
The red guitar is broken
To beat the drum of youth again
Take too long to say

Stay, stay, stay
I will understand you
Stay, I will understand you

The love theme for the wilderness
I fit the words together
Candy girls want candy boxes
She loves the music box forever

Summer girls in disarray
Can be so free and easy now

Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do
Is love and hold you right

There is just one thing I can say
Nobody loves you this way
It's alright

Can't you see?
The downtown lights

In love we're all the same
We're walking down an empty street
And with nobody, call your name

Empty streets, empty nights
The downtown lights

How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know it's true?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's alright

Tonight and every night

Let's walk in the cool evening light
Wrong or right

Yeah, yeah, the downtown lights

The neon's and the cigarettes
Rented rooms and rented cars
The crowded streets, the empty bars
Chimney tops and trumpets

The golden lights, the loving prayers
The colored shoes, the empty trains
I'm tired of crying on the stairs
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah


18.Seven A.M.

Every single time I'm near you
Where's the love that's all
All I want is you

Out among the neon signs?
Every single time I see you
You're mine and only mine

19.Over The Hillside

Lyricist:Paul Gerard Buchanan

Workin' night and day
I try to get ahead
But I don't get ahead this way

Workin' night and day
The railroad and the fence
Watch the train go roll 'round the bend

Over the hillside
Over the moment
Over the hills and waitin'

Workin' night and day
I try to get ahead
Workin' night and day
Don't make no sense

Walk me into town
The fairy will be there
To carry us away into the air

Over the hillside
Over white water
Over the hills and falling

The stars in your eyes
Knowin' what's right
The stars in your eyes
Don't explain

Over the hillside
Over the hillside
Over the hills and waitin'

Over the hillside
Over the hillside
Over the hills and home we'll go

Tomorrow I will be there
Tomorrow I will be there
Tomorrow I will be there
Oh, you wait and see

I can't go on and I can't go back
I don't feel so, matter of fact
I tried and tried to make good sense
What's the good to try it all again?


20.Family Life

Lyricist:Paul Buchanan

Starlight, do you know me?
Please, don't look at me now
I'm falling apart

Silver on the window
Like the bike I once had
At home in the yard

Jesus, love let me down
And I know where You are
It might lead somewhere

Gather me in snowfall
And the cars going by
The north and the south

Flowers on the table
And the coffee gets cold
Like the milk in my mouth

Sailing on no honeymoon
Just separate chairs in separate rooms
Jesus, please make us happy sometimes
No more shout, no more fight, family life

Tomorrow will be Christmas
We'll be singing old songs
And light up the tree

God and all the mercy
And say all your prayers
For little old me

Jesus, You wipe the tears from her face
And the sound of his voice, family life

Mystery

Jesus, I go to sleep and I pray
For my kids, for my wife, family life


21.God Bless the Kid

Lyricist:Robert Bell, Paul Gerard Buchanan

I drive all over town to the bars without a name
And it feels like Memphis after Elvis there's nothing going on
When you get to the top does it all work out?

God bless you kid
And everything you did, yeah
God bless you kid
And everything you did, yeah

The boys all dressed in blue and the girls get dressed in white
The fire engines, the TV stations still tumble through the night
Go to bed, go to sleep with our ordinary lives
It's the same old, same old scene

God bless you kid
And everything you did, yeah
God bless you kid
And everything you did
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

God bless you kid
And everything you did, yeah
God bless you kid
And everything you did, yeah

Never grew up, I never grew down, yeah
I never grew up, I never grew down, yeah
I never grew up, I never grew down, yeah
I never grew up, I never grew down

God bless me kid
God bless me too

The kiss, the promise, kiss
I never grew up, I never grew down, yeah

God bless you kid
God bless you kid

When the streets are so big and wide

An ordinary girl
Can make the world alright
Love me all the way
Saturday night, Saturday night

Meet me outside the cherry light

It's only make believe
It's only love
It's only love
It's only love
I swear

I wanna hold you, and treat you right
The cigarettes, and the morning light
I can do wrong, but I will do right
I'll see you later, It'll be alright, yeah

Now that I found peace of mind
Tell me, Jesus, is it mine?
Now that I found peace of mind
Tell me, Jesus, is it mine?

The birds are laughing in the trees
And in the empty breeze
It's only love
It's only love
It's only love
I swear

I wanna hold you, and treat you right
The cigarettes, the morning light
I can do wrong, I can do right
I'll see you later, be alright, yeah

Happiness, happiness
Happiness, happiness
Happiness, happiness
I wanted more, but live with less
Happiness, happiness
Live again, happiness
Happiness

Now that I found peace at last
Tell me, Jesus, will it last?
Now that I found peace at last
Tell me, Jesus, will it last?

Happiness


30.A Walk Across The Rooftops

Lyricist:(trad.) Arr:Michael T. Coleman, Jimmy Gaudreau, Mike
Audridge, Moondi Klein

I walk across the rooftops
I follow a broken thread
Of white rags falling slowly down
Flags caught on the fences

I am in love, I am in love with you
I am in love, I am in love with you

I walk across the rooftops
The jangle of Saint Steven's bells
The telephones that ring all night
Incommunicado

I am in love, I am in love with you
I am in love, I am in love with you

The traffic lights are changing
The black and white horizon
I leave the quiet Redstone
And walk across the rooftops

I walk across the rooftops
On graduation day
To look for independence, yeah

I am in love, I am in love with you
I am in love, I am in love with you

The lights are always changing
The black and white horizon
I leave the Redstone building
And walk across the rooftops, yeah

I walk across the rooftops
I walk across the rooftops
I walk across the rooftops


31.Holy Love

Lyricist:Paul Buchanan

Yeah

I stand and watch
The windows raise
The flowers cut
I'm still looking

Holy love
Holy love, yeah

Stocking tops
The coffee cups
When all milk comes up
I'm all cut up, yeah

Holy love
Yeah, yeah, yeah


32.Automobile Noise

Automobile noise
Out in the traffic
Black cars and blue cars go by

Backwards and forward
The names and places I know
Alright, I cross the same old ground, oh yeah

Automobile noise, exit signs and subway trains
Twenty-four hours, statues in the rain
Walk in the headlights, walk in the daylight
Automobile noise

Climbing a ladder
To all the money in the world
Watching it blow across the wire

Automobile noise, exit signs and subway trains
Twenty-four hours, statues in the rain
Walk in the headlights, walk in the daylight
Automobile noise

I am weary of this fighting
I'm weary of surrender

Heat of the moment
Then the unwinding of it all
Saddle the horses and we'll go

Automobile noise, exit signs and subway trains
Twenty-four hours, statues in the rain
Walk in the headlights, walk into daylight
Automobile noise
