The Kooks RAK Lyrics
1.By My Side

Lyricist:Hugh W Harris

When you feel like you've fallen out of use
Come by my side
The starved pain my girl you have induced
Come dine by my side

Everything she said to me was true
So now I know why
You look blue, it's eating through you
So come by my side

Don't want to fall out of love with you
Don't let me fall out of love with you

I'll dig down and I'll search for a heart of gold
In your diamond mind
Don't you know I'd farm the world
To come dine by your side

Everything you say to me gets through
So now I know why I'm not through with life
Because of you
So come by my side

Don't want to fall out of love with you
Don't let me fall out of love with you

Girl you know that I still need you
Pick it up and we'll find a way
Don't you know that I still need you
Look it up and we'll find a way

Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, dam
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da

Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da

Don't wanna fall out of love with you
Don't let me fall out of love with you
Don't wanna fall out of love with you
Don't let me fall out of love with you


2.Hatful Of Love

Lyricist:Luke Pritchard

I've got a hatful of love for you
So why are you waiting so long
Oh my love for you babe
Is going so strong

Oh honey please, don't shed no tears
As long as I'm here

I've got a hatful of love for you
So why are you waiting so long
Oh my love for you
Well it is going so strong

But oh honey please
Don't shed no tears
As long as I'm here

Oh and I care for you
So why are you waiting so long
You carry on, I'll marry you
But why is it taking so long?

But oh honey please
Don't shed no tears
As long as I'm here

But oh honey please
Don't shed no tears
As long as I'm here


3.Brooklyn

Lyricist:Luke Pritchard

Nobody sees my disease
Nobody sees my disease
Sat on a lonely chair
Sat on a lonely chair

Nobody sees my disease
I'm happier when I'm on my knees
She's still living in Brooklyn
She's still living in Brooklyn

Nobody sees my pain
Nobody sees my pain
Sat in a lonely room
Sat in a lonely room

Nobody sees my pain
People come, they don't care
She still lives in Brooklyn
She still lives in Brooklyn

Nobody sees my disease

Nobody sees my disease
Nobody sees my disease
Struck on a lonely chair
People, they come they don't care

Nobody sees my disease
Happier when I'm on my knees, love
She still lives in Brooklyn
She still lives in Brooklyn

She still lives in Brooklyn
She still lives in Brooklyn

She'll never see my disease


4.See The Sun (Alternate Version)

Oh no, I didn't mean to say what I did say
About lovers and how they should lay
That was never for me to say and say
Don't you see now how I pay

I see the sun rising
But all you see is fall, fall, fall

So come on up
Wasn't you who said life was like a plastic cup
To be used and then disposed of
But that's no way to live a life like yours
Don't you see now how I pay

I see the sun rising
But all you see is fall, fall, fall

For all the times I never
Never turned away
And now she's here on someone else's arm

For all the times I never
Never turned her way
And now she's here on someone else's arm


5.Watching The Ships Roll In

Lyricist:Luke Pritchard

Watching the ships roll in
Hoping that I will still be his friend in the morning
Watching those ships roll by
Wishing that I could move this earth if I could
For you I would do

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to lay at your feet
I just keep hoping
Hope that you will be the man
That I couldn't be

Still watching the oceans move
If only I could show you my soul
And places I've been

Watching the ocean come
And little girls playing in the sand as I walk
Longing to listen to you talk

But I've got nothing to say
And I've got nothing to lay at your feet
I just keep hoping
Hope that you will be the man
That I couldn't be

I've got nothing to say
And I've got nothing to lay at your feet
I just keep hoping
Hope that you will be the man
That I couldn't be


6.Eaten By Your Lover

Lyricist:Paul Garred

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4

Ooh, eaten by your lover
Don't you eat no friend of mine
Ooh, eaten by your lover
Don't you eat no friend of mine
Don't you eat no friend of mine

All my little ladies eating up the gravy
All my little ladies eating up the gravy
All you little ladies eating up the gravy, yeah

Ooh, eaten by your lover
Don't you eat no friend of mine
Ooh, eaten by your lover
Don't you eat no friend of mine, yeah
Don't you eat no friend of mine


7.No Longer

Lyricist:Hugh W Harris

I must say that I worry for
You can't live like this no more
I must say that I worry for you

I must say that I worry for
Our love in this cold war
I must say that I worry for you

Took me by surprise that I just didn't see
She had her dark past, her broken heart
And she wants it loved

But in the darkest of times
She won't be honest with lies
Put her words in a fancy dress
And we'll keep up this disguise

But no longer
It's not getting stronger
No longer for me

I must say that I worry for
You can't live like this no more
I must say that I worry for you

But you, but you don't wanna think no more
Passed out on your bedroom floor
I must say that I worry for you

Took me by surprise
A man once made a key
To open her dark heart
He broke apart what was once in love

But it's clear now to see
That man, he was me
And so I go far, far
Without her, don't you follow me

And no longer
We're not getting stronger
No longer for me

I must say that I worry for
You can't live like this no more
I must say that I worry for you

I must say that I worry for
Our love in this cold war
I must say that I worry for you
I worry for you, I worry for you
I worry for you, I worry for you

I'm just saying that I worry for
I'm just saying that I worry for
I'm just saying that I worry for
And I'm just saying that I worry for
I'm just saying that I worry for


8.Fa La La

You're out there having fun, and I need you*
I'm alone with this song about being empty and the fear of
missing out.
It's hard to be alone,
Now eight miles I've walked up and down the hall.
Long hall.

Oh god, I miss my girl,
It's only been a night.
I miss the last time that we had a fight.
Isn't it sad?
Won't you say it's bad?

I don't care and if I have to
I'll read yoru books because they'll remind me of you.
And I'll learn your notes so that I have a clue.
And I'll watch your films, so that I know them through and
through.

And I'll do the things that remind me of you.
And I'll wash my hair in your shampoo.
And I'll buy your perfume and spary it 'round my room.
And I'll smoke your cigarettes so that I'm dying too.
And I call you up.
Fa la la la..
Fa la la la..
Fa la la la..

Oh, am I sane?
Am I sane?
Am I sane?


9.Nothing Ever Changes

Lyricist:Paul Garred, Luke Pritchard

I'd like to meet the girl I'm gonna marry
I'd like to meet the girl I'm going to see
Nothing ever changes in me

But you ain't got nothin', nothin' on me
The way everybody loves me
I wish you could see
Nothin' ever changes in me

But I've go to be free
Oh, I've got to be free
Oh, I've got to be free

Like I said a long time ago
Things they come and things they go
Nothin' ever changes in me

You make me hungry
Then you make me see
Oh how happy my life can be
But nothin' ever change in me

I've got to be free
Oh, I've got to be free
I've got to be free

Oh, I've got to be free
I've got to be free
Oh, I've got to be free

Oh, I've got to be free
I've got to be free
Oh, I've got to be free
