The Frames Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Sideways Down

Lyricist:Robert P Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire

Maybe I should just move along
But you know I'd draw blood if that's what you want
You found someone who makes you laugh
Who'd stick around, but that's not what you want

You slipped at the start
And dragged the whole thing sideways down
Everybody fucks up
It's just something that's been going round
And you found someone who said he'd stay
Who'd give it all but that's not good enough

Now you're standing alone
And you're living alone 'cause you don't know what you want
And you're living alone
And you're wondering now, 'cause you don't know what you've done

Maybe I should just disappear for now
Then maybe you could see a little clearer now
You found someone who makes you laugh
Who'd stick around, but that's not what you want
And you blame it on your broken heart
But everyone who reaches out gets stung

You're standing alone
And you're waiting alone 'cause you don't know what you want
And you're living alone
And you're wondering now 'cause you don't know what you've done

Maybe I should just move along


2.God Bless Mom

Lyricist:Paul Brennan, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire, David Odlum

God bless mom
Best of all
Spread your wings
Fly or fall

God bless you
Strong and true
Stay at home
Good as gold

You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal
You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal
And you'll see how hard it can be
To keep one foot in the real

God bless mom
Best of all

You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal
You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal

You'll see how hard it can be
To keep one foot in the real
You'll see how hard it can be
To keep one foot in the real
You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal

You'll see how hard it can be
To keep your side of the deal

God bless mom
Best of all, all, all


3.Perfect Opening Line

Lyricist:Paul Brennan, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire, David Odlum

It's just a lie I guess
Working every hour that heaven sends
Just making sense of this
Never any wiser for the falls

And every time we get
Far away enough to see it clear
It comes right out at you
To take the wonder out of everything

So hold it in your hand

And I'll just be curious to see now
How you'll make it by yourself
When your walking out ahead
Unaware of anything

And tomorrow as we're looking
Who the history books will blame
You'll be walking out ahead
Not caring anyway, yeah

Seven times removed
From the one's who thought they had it down
But don't it go to prove
Nothing cuts you like the lies of a friend

So hold it in your hands, yeah
You can't just switch it off, no

And I'll just be curious to see now
How you're going to make it by yourself
When you're walking out ahead
Unaware of anything

And tomorrow as we're looking
Who the history books will blame
You'll be walking out ahead
Not caring anyway

It's the perfect opening line
It's the perfect opening line
It's the perfect opening line

And I'll just be curious to see now
How you're going to make it by yourself
When there's everything to lose
And nothing left to win

And tomorrow as we're looking
Who the history books will blame
You'll be walking out ahead
Unaware of anything

And tomorrow as we're fighting
Over which way was the best
You'll be walking out ahead
Not caring anyway, yeah

It's the perfect opening line
It's the perfect opening line
It's the perfect opening line


4.Stars Are Underground

Lyricist:Paul Brennan (gb 2), Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

The stars are underground
And the proof is flying overhead
So kick me when I'm down
And I'll be the one
You're laughing about now

I don't know if it's real
Or how I'm supposed to feel now
That I'm out of your life
And into the darkness

And out of the darkness
I'm coming now
When I'm out of your sight
And into the blackness

I drag myself along
Not sure of how I got in here
Well, I must have done you wrong
'Cause you always insist on telling me

Now how it feels
That I'm out of your life
And into the darkness

And out of the darkness
I'm coming now
When I'm out of your sight
And into the blackness

Tell Mairead that you saw me
And see how they follow
When the piper plays the song


5.Plateau

Lyricist:Paul Brennan, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire, David Odlum

I'm on a plateau
It's not where I belong
It's taken so many years
To figure out my way

Upon this plateau
It's all been said and done
And every time I try
The words make little sense
Until you're gone

And everything must change
Everything must change
Upon this plateau

The diamond sky's enough
To take you miles ahead
Where the past can't ever catch us
And all your good friends
Are gathering all around

They say the time is now
And so I must resolve to say
It's just me myself again
And I'm just talking to the wall this time
It's just me myself
And I deciding on a plan

And everything must change
Everything must change inside you now
Everything must change inside and out
Everything must change, change
I'm on a plateau
I'm on a plateau


6.Seven Day Mile

Lyricist:Paul Brennan (gb 2), Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Your will changes everyday
It's a road you've come upon
I can't help you if you want to
Down here nothing gets a chance

It's a threat that's real enough
We can burn this bridge or stay here
It's a breeze, everlasting like time
Making so sure that

I can return just to see it
From your side again
Always never seems to work
It's a word you never learned

I don't really see a way clear
It's a sea ever churning in tides
In the sureness of time
And our words will repeat now forever again

Well, this might take a while to figure out
So don't you rush it
And hold your head up high
Right through the doubt

'Cause it's just a matter of time
You've been running so fast
It's the seven day mile
Has you torn in between

Here and running away
I don't have a choice in this
It's a road I've come upon
You can join us if you want to

Always never seems to work
It's a word we never learned
Time will be the judge of all here
This might take a while to figure out now

So don't you rush it
And hold you're head up high
Right through the doubt now
'Cause it's just a matter of time

You've been running so fast
It's the seven day mile
Has you torn in between here
And running away

It's line you've been wanting
It's your time, it's the seven day mile
Has you torn in between here
And never again, never again

And down here nothing gets chance
It's a world too big for us
Time will be the judge of all here
This might take a while to figure out now

So don't you rush it
And hold you're head up high
Right through the doubt now
'Cause it's just a matter of time

You've been running so fast
It's the seven day mile
Has you torn in between, yeah
And never again, never again


7.Dance The Devil Back Into His Hole

Lyricist:Leslie Bricusse, Glen Hansard, Anthony Newley, The Frames

Out of the darkness and into the cold
Trying to take something that's good for the soul
Watching the chances scatter and fall
And spinning the wheel 'cause you've lost control

And we can dance, dance the poison
Right out of your soul
And we can dance
Dance the devil back into his hole

Sitting with people who are draining your strength
Always trying to find somewhere
That nobody's been
And living your life with one good intent

And we can dance, dance the poison
Right out of your soul
And we can dance
Dance the devil back into his hole

There is no life I know
That compares to pure imagination


8.When Your Mind's Made Up

Lyricist:Glen Hansard

So if you want somethin'
And you call, call, then I'll come runnin'
To fight and I'll be at your door
When there's nothin' worth runnin' for

When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point tryin' to change it

When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point even talkin'

You see, you're just like anyone
When the shit falls, all you wanna do is run away
And hide all by yourself
Well, there's no one that's gonna run to help

When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point tryin' to change it

When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point even talkin'

When your mind, your mind

There's no point tryin' to change it
When your, your, your

So if you ever want somethin'
And you call, call, then I'll come runnin'

Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Star, star teach me how to shine, shine
Teach me so I know what's going on in your mind
'Cause I don't understand these people

Who sayin' the hill's too steep
Well, they'll talk and talk forever
But they'll just never climb, oh

Falling down into the situations
Bringing out the best in you
You're flat on your back again

And star, you're ever word I'm heeding
Can you help me to see

10.Fake

Lyricist:Robert P Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire

You're telling me I should forget you
But why
You're talking like I never knew you
But that's a lie

And you're playing out your game again
Why are you never on my side
And you're telling me I should forget you

Come on, the guys a fake, what do you love him for
And it was my mistake, just kicking in his door
And if it's just a game, then what are we crying for

You're telling me I will regret you
And so
You're talking like I should expect to
But you'll never know

And he's left you in the rain again
And you were always on my mind
And you're telling me I should forget you

Come on, the guys a fake, what do you love him for
And it was my mistake, just kicking in his door
And if it's just a game, then what are we crying for

Come on, the guys a fake, what do you love him for
And it was my mistake, just kicking in his door
And if it's just a game, then what are we crying for

You're telling me I should forget you


11.Suffer In Silence

Lyricist:Robert P Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire

Come back, show your face, don't you see
You're too good for this place, can we leave
It's not your fault, what they say, don't believe
Or would you rather suffer in silence and defeat?
Or would you rather suffer in silence needlessly?

Ah come on, show the way, I'll believe
Welcome back, you've been away, how's it been
Or would you rather suffer in silence needlessly
Or would you rather suffer in silence and defeat

You don't have to suffer in silence and defeat
You don't have to suffer in silence needlessly
You don't have to suffer in silence and defeat
You don't have to suffer in silence needlessly

Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love calling

Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love
Wake up
Wake up, it's your love

You don't have to suffer in silence and defeat
You don't have to suffer in silence needlessly
You don't have to suffer in silence and defeat
You don't have to suffer in silence needlessly
You don't have to suffer in silence, yes you don't

Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love calling
Wake up, it's your love calling

Wake up
Wake up


12.Revelate

Lyricist:Graham Downey, Glen James Hansard, Colm Macconiomaire, Noreen
O Donnell, David Odlum

My simple slant, this broken chant
My human fate, my revelate
Are you so far from me this day
That you can't say my revelate?

My open arms, my lucky charm
My number eight my revelate
I fucked it up, I rest my case
'Cause it all to grey my revelate

Sometimes I need a revelation
'Cause sometimes it's all too hard to take
Sometimes I need a revelation
This time I'm making my own now

Does this mean we're though?
Does this mean it's gone?
I spent a day just to ponder the words
That I would write to you this day
But it's all too great, my revelate

Sometimes I need a revelation
Sometimes its all too much to take
Sometimes I need a revelation
This time it's up in arms
This time I need you revelation

'Cause sometimes it's all too much to take
This time I need you revelation
'Cause sometimes it's easy just to hate you
Sometimes I need a revelation
Sometimes I, sometimes I

Redeem yourself
Redeem yourself
Redeem yourself


13.Underglass

Lyricist:Robert P Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Your will it drifts forever in the open air
My head, it looks forever but there's no one there
Don't say, you'll wait forever then you disappear
I'll stay, I'll stay forever if you want me here

And I'm always thinking about it

How can I accept your disappointment man
It's not exact, it's no science man
I want it less than you ever have
I can't accept your disappointment man

Damn straight
'Cause there's always someone who'll compare
I'd wait, I'd wait forever if you want me here
But I'm always wrong about it

How can I accept your disappointment man
It's not exact, it's no science man
I wanted less than you ever have
I can't accept your disappointment man

How can I accept your disappointment man
It's not exact, it's no science man
I wanted less than you ever have
I can't accept your disappointment man

It's not exact, it's no science man
I wanted less than you ever have
I can't accept your disappointment man


14.Fitzcarraldo

Lyricist:Paul Brennan, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire

Here, back, down along
And straight, track I have chosen the long road
That leads me out to God knows
So I can stop right now

Even the good stars
Can fall from grace and faulter
Lose their faith and slide
But I can't get an ocean that's deep enough

For my day is the first of the ascension
It's a sad way we've flown after the stars
And her last words were 'I was only thinking of you'
In my golden, olden days I'll be a slave

Well now it's time for to sound your voice
And capture what you're after
My ship was sold right up the river
But I'm not going down here

This journey isn't over
It's a long way to the house of Fitzcarraldo
And her last words were 'I'm always thinking of you'
In my golden, olden days I'll be a saint

Even the good stars can fall from grace and faulter
Like lapdogs that stride that mystery
And her last words were 'I'll see you down in history'
It's the long lonely way that we can grow

Oh no
It's a long way to Fitzcarraldo
And I don't want to pray for you
In the name of something true


15.Rent Day Blues

Lyricist:R Ball, R Bell, G Brown, Eumir Deodato, Frames, Glen James
Hansard, R Mickens, C Smith, J Taylor, D Thomas, E Toon

Down on my check
Eat on my bet
Cool And The Gang
Play on the radio

I'm back on the block
And I'm pickin' my lock
And I'm hitchin' a ride out of this
No good town

I'm late on my rent
And my money's all spent
And I'm wastin' away
Where no one will ever find me

And I wonder what they'd say now
If we got lucky babe
And I'd wonder what they'd say now
If we go all the way

I'm playin' the cards
And I'm losin' so hard
And I'm lyin' awake
And what have I got to show for it all?

I'm late on my rent
My money is all spent
And I'm hitchin' a ride out of this
No good town

And I wonder what they'd say now
If we got lucky babe
And I'd wonder what they'd say now
If we go all the way

And I wonder what they'd say now
If we got lucky babe
And I'd wonder what they'd say now
If we go all the way
If we go all the way, aey yeah

I'm hitchin' a ride out of this
No good town
I'm hitchin' a ride out of this
No good town
I'm hitchin' a ride out of this
No good town


16.Angel At My Table

Lyricist:Graham Downey, Glen Hansard, Colm Macconiomaire, Noreen O
Donnell, David Odlum

There's an angel at my table
And she broke her wings
She's packed her things
She said I'm the only one she'll turn to

But there's a devil on my shoulder
And he's telling me she's so beautiful
That I should go up there and hold up
She's looking on

How can I stay here
It wouldn't be what she wants
And I'm trying to break it easy
But she's pleading with me

Will you be my anchor
When there is no one around
To hold me down?
Will you be my anchor?
I know you're not the answer

There's an angel at my table
And she's blessed the breeze
That blows in between her and everything
She's left in that
(Heaven)

And I wish she'd call
'Cause that devil's on my shoulder
And he's pulling me down
And I'm trying to keep a balance
But she's begging me

Will you be my anchor
When there is no one around
To hold me down?
Will you be my anchor
I know you're not the answer

There's an angel at my table
She said I'm the only one she'll turn to


17.'Neath The Beeches

Lyricist:Paul Brennan, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Hand me down the picture
Of you leaving unsaid
I know how simple it gets
But say by chance I need you
You'll always be there

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again

I'm learning to hand it over
To whatever Lord there be
In the same old colors

I'll be dressed for thee
But it's not about that, is it?
It's about you and me

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again

I hung your feat, that famous
Painting above my bed
And you told me a story

About some guy that kept his head
He drowned 'neath the South Point
Near the pier where we stand

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again, again

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again

Hand me down the picture
Of you leaving unsaid
I know how simple it gets
But say by chance I need you
You'll always be there

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again

I'm learning to hand it over
To whatever Lord there be
In the same old colors, I'll be dressed for thee
But it's not about that, is it?
It's about you and me

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again

I hung your feat, that famous
Painting above my bed and you told me a story
About some guy that kept his head
He drowned 'neath the South Point
Near the pier where we stand

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again
Again

And I will lie
With you 'neath the beeches
On the strand again


18.Bananaman

I'm the bananaman, I go uppa that tree
I go downa that tree, I go home for me tea
I'm the bananaman, and I drink me Coca Cola
And I play me rock'n'rolla down by the sea

Everybody like banana..


19.Ship Caught In The Bay

Lyricist:Robert Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire

Leaving, but never far enough
Like a ship caught in the bay
We'll show each other where it hurts
We'll make the fuckers pay

And what is it we don't do well enough
That were constantly afraid
And clearing up the pieces when your gone
But the silence always stays

And silences and formlessness is gone
With the hand that rocked the babe
We'll forgive each other of what is done
There's no one we could blame

And neither side is sure enough to move
There's something in the way
And still for all the wisdom that we've got
Were suffering the same

Buried in the work what never ends
And silently we fade
And we walk on, walk on


20.Early Bird

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

The early bird he slips away
And he lives to fly another day
He only serves to point the way
That you should or should not return

Two simple birds that never stray
When the lights go out on us
Just before when we we're found

Will not rush it, will enjoy it
Will not touch it, will rejoice it

The early bird he knows his place
And he'll stay all day there if he has to
He never hides or runs away
When the voices crowd on his
Cry so loud that you will die

Will not rush it, will enjoy it
Will not touch it, will rejoice it

Where did this come from
How long has this been going on
Where is it from

I feel my wheels are turning
I see the sky falling on every face
Telling us now that we ought to stay

I feel my wheels are turning
I see the open road before us stretch
Leading us somewhere past the hour


21.Santa Maria

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Let me off this boat
I'm sick of this ride
The world is heading
Ever southward
And I can't stay in here

And you're lying awake
Away on your side
The feeling comes in waves
And burns us
And I don't want to die

From the slippery hands
To the line of your throat
The fever now consumes us both
In fire now we will go

Santa Maria
Why did you have to go?
Santa Maria
One day we will know

In a bowing of heads
And a passing of hands
All we thought they'd understand
Is lost and they won't know

And what have we left?
It's all that we've got
There is no 'X' to mark our spot
What's past is done and gone

Santa Maria
Why did you have to burn?
Santa Maria
One day you will learn


22.A Caution To The Birds

Lyricist:Robert Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire

Body's not secure
The truth will not absorb
And this crumbling apart
Is no good for you at all

Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know
Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know

With eyes that never look
Past this moment under foot
And this reading in the cards
Is a caution to the birds

Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know
Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know

Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know
Sound, there's order in the sound
The sound that you don't know


23.Look Back Now

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Looking through the valley floor
I saw a changing man
And all the places they were

And as I walk beside you now
I feel there is no more we can say
But I'd never do nothing to hurt you love

And if we look back now
And see how far your tiny ship has come
And if we look back know
We see how willingly some bridges burn

You know I think it's a shame
You don't talk at all
Maybe you just don't hear me call

But I've been doing very well
I play those games no more
I'm just getting on

But I'd always come running to catch you
And if we look back now
And see how easily these tables turn

And if we look back know
We see how willingly some bridges burn
And if we look back now
Maybe we can forgive ourselves for all we've done
For all we've done

And if we look back now
And see how far your time of rest has come
And if we look back now
We see how willingly these bridges burn
Bridges burn


24.Friends And Foe

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Turning with the listless
And staying close behind
And the arms that once held you
Have receded over time

And the little love I had
For all my friends and foe
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have
Taken hold

In the early morning walking
And the pressure in the night
And the walls that held you with us
Have fallen out of sight

And the little love I had
For all my friends and foe
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have
Taken hold

And the little love I had
For all the friends I know
And the little time we got to share was worth it
After all

Now we work it out in silence
And the subplot to the end
And it's falling out of favor
I've seen it where I am

And the little love I had
For all my friends and foe
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have
Taken hold

And the little love I had
For all the friends I know
And the little time we got to share was worth it
After all


25.Keepsake

Lyricist:Robert Bochnik, Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, Colm
Macconiomaire

Maybe it's all we can't take
Keeps us always returnin'
I'm keepin' this as a keepsake
And everythin' else I'm burnin'

And maybe it's 'cause we can't wait
Keeps us always regrettin'
I'm keepin' this as a keepsake
And everythin' else forgettin'

When we're down, down, down all the way
Can we run away?

And maybe it's 'cause you can't say
Keeps me always believin'
I'll give you this as a keepsake
And right after that I'm leavin'

And maybe it's all we can't take
Keeps us always returnin'
I'll give you this 'cause it won't break
And everythin' else I'm burnin'

When we're down, down, down all the way
Can we run away?

When we're down, down, down all the way
Free run away

My, I can't sleep
My, my, I can't sleep
My, my, I can't sleep
My, my, I can't sleep, my


26.Tomorrow's Too Long

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

Cover yourself from the storm
'Cause forever has just come and gone
And tonight the wind blows in cold
And we don't know what tomorrow will hold
And the waiting is keeping you strong
But tomorrow is too long

Gather yourself for the ride
And whatever you can't carry
You should leave behind
And the lights are fading on the shore
And tomorrow is so far to go
Tomorrow is so far to go


27.Mighty Sword

Lyricist:Joseph Philip Doyle, Glen James Hansard, David John Hingerty,
Colm Macconiomaire, David Odlum

I may not hold you
For as long as forever exists
I may not know you
For as long as the heavens permit

There will be distance
And we'll both have to come to expect
The wild ending
Of our dark and feathered friends

And we wield the mighty sword
That cuts through bone and lays the liars down
And we wield an angry sword
That softens stone and turns the tides around

So you called me over
And I'll wait by your building tonight
But you may not bother
But it's better than feeding the lie

I am receiving
The message that I need to go
But I'm not leaving
'Til one of us surrenders its soul


28.Evergreen

My evergreen, you are always gonna be
No winter winds, can take you far from me
Those tides of time have carved a few new lines
Oh but they've never changed my mind

My evergreen, beside me you will be
When all the world was cold and golden
Your colors ceased to bleed

Oh my evergreen, you are always gonna be gonna be
Keep on, keep on, 'cause your season's gonna come
When all these storms have passed and done
This distance will be gone and I swear we will be one

When this race has all been run and I stole to see the hail
Falling down in through your hair, through your hair
Oh my evergreen, oh, you are always gonna be


29.Giving It All Away

There's only so much that you have
And you've got to keep it safe
You've been spreading it round the place
Now it's gotta come back this way

And you're giving it all away
You're giving it all away

And you're lying through your teeth
You said you found a song to sing
And you're riding on a wave
Whatever helps you get along

And you're giving it all away
You're giving it all away
You're keeping nothing for yourself
You're just giving it all away

And there's so much that you know
And there's so much that you don't
Can you not accept its all the same?
Just accept it's all the same

And you're giving it all away
You're giving it all away
You're keeping nothing for yourself
You're just giving it all away


30.Denounced

Are you feeling so abandoned?
Have your crutches all been stolen and broken?
Now sometimes you've got to fall
Just to remember how far from the bottom you are

Have I got your full attention?
'Cause these words don't come so easy now
We know what's gonna happen
This is getting us nowhere and we've been there

I did denounce this and here I am with you
Before we lose the rest
Let's go with what we've left
Are you holding it together?

Are you facing all the hardest and roughest parts
The sign we passed along the way
Said you've come this far
Now you're on your own and I'm stopping here

I did denounce this
I did denounce this and so did you
Before we lose it all, let's try to call it off
I did denounce this


31.Red Chord

And I'm pulling on the red chord
That pulls you back to me, Lord
It helps me out
When you're away

When I was in the army
And they called you back to save me
And I was resting soft
In the arms of my war

And I'm pulling on the red chord
That pulls you back to me, Lord
And I'm pulling on the red chord
So you're not so far away

And I was at the uni, the university of
Blind love and black poetry
And it was there I found you
And you were happy like an angel
But for everything you learned
There is something you must let go of

And I'm pulling on the red chord
That pulls you back to me, Lord
And I'm pulling on the red chord
That pulls you back to me, Lord

Pulls you back to me, Lord
Yeah, pulls you back to me, Lord
Pulls you back to me, Lord
Yeah, pulls you back to me, Lord
